in box The other elephant in the room For most of us, there is plenty to worry about without adding in the Climate Crisis. One good thing that staying home has given us is time to think, not only about how life is now, but how we and the climate could come out of this in much better health. Like two peas in a pod, COVID-19 and the Climate Crisis follow the same exponential accelerating curves. And although the COVID-19 curve is beginning to level off somewhat, the Climate Crisis curve is not. In his Earth Day speech, UN Secretary General Guterres listed these six principles to push to end fossil fuel subsidies at a time when both oil companies and households are struggling to pay their bills. 1. As we spend huge amounts of money to recover from the coronavirus, we must deliver new jobs and businesses through a clean, green transition. 2. Where taxpayers’ money is used to rescue businesses, it needs to be tied to achieving green jobs and sustainable growth. 3. Fiscal firepower must drive a shift
from the grey to green economy, and make societies and people more resilient 4. Public funds should be used to invest in the future, not the past, and flow to sustainable sectors and projects that help the environment and the climate. Fossil fuel subsidies must end, and polluters must start paying for their pollution 5. Climate risks and opportunities must be incorporated into the financial system as well as all aspects of public policy making and infrastructure. 6. We need to work together as an international community.” As the majority of Americans support Congress taking action on Climate Crisis, there is a resolution in Congress currently awaiting action: the Energy Innovation and Carbon Dividend Act (H.R. 763). The Carbon Dividend Act calls for a carbon fee collected on carbon emissions which will be allocated to all Americans in the form of a dividend that is deposited in our accounts the same way the stimulus money is. In the process, it incentivizes energy companies to develop technology

Fearing the same kind of rioting and destruction that has been taking place in other cities, many familiar Duluth businesses battened down the hatches before the May 30 gatherings to protest Minneapolis police treatment of 46-year-old George Floyd, who died on May 25 as a result of his meeting with four police officers. Fortunately, the Duluth protests did not result in violence and widespread destruction and looting. But it is the extraordinary measures these businesses went to in an effort to protect themselves from the unknown of the demonstrations that earns this photo by Richard Thomas the Photo of the Week designation.

Here’s How: Brighten room with dormer Dear James: I use my dark attic just for storage, but the underside of the gable roof is low. I think adding a dormer would help a lot. What is a good plan to build one? — Steph T. Dear Steph: In addition to providing more headroom, dormers can provide much additional natural light in an attic so you won’t need electric lights. I recommend installing a minimum of two, because it looks more balanced from the street. Making two of everything is not much more work.

With a gable roof, a small doghouse dormer is an easy-to-make design. It is called “doghouse” because it looks much like a small doghouse. Attics are meant to have ventilation, so your dormers do not have to be airtight. Your main concern is to make them and their seams to the existing roof watertight. A leak can ruin the attic floor insulation. The first design concern is the size of the dormer. This depends primarily on the vertical height of your roof from the gutter to its peak. In northern
climates, roofs have a higher pitch Once you have selected your for snow loads than roofs in southern dormer windows, this will determine climates do, so almost any size works. the height and width of the front In either climate, a larger house will face of the dormer.

Duluth protests George Floyd’s death Activist Joe Carter speaks to protesters at the Duluth Civic Center on May 30. Photo by Felivity Bosk.
After the May 25 death of George Floyd, protests have happened throughout the country, especially Minnesota. Duluth saw its biggest protest on Saturday, with at least a thousand people gathering to protest not only Floyd’s death, but systemic racism in the United States. Duluth’s Saturday protest began at Memorial Park before heading downtown, with Black Lives Matter and similar by phrases written on some vehicles. Protesters gathered at the Clayton Jackson McGhie Memorial on First Street, where 100 years ago this month the three black circus workers were lynched. Standing on the higher slope of 2nd avenue east, the event organizers talked to the crowd and introduced Kym Young, a local activist. She asked white people in the crowd to raise their hands, then asked “do black lives matter to you?” The crowd shouted back “Yes” to which she said “then you must tear down the racist system that perpetuates the racism and systemic oppression in this country.”

“I don’t want you to tear down buildings,” she said. “The foundation of this country is rotten. The house that sits upon this foundation is tinkering on the brink of collapse. One swift wind will tear it down and that’s what we are demanding. We are no longer asking; we are no longer begging.” Joe Carter, along with Brayleigh Keliin, organized Saturday’s event because, he said, it needed to be done. “I’m happy the way it turned out. There were hiccups, but everyone got their voice head and I’m happy about that.” The crowd marched from the memorial to the Civic Center, where a nine-minute silence was held while nearly everyone in the crowd knelt. The nine minutes signified the nine minutes Minneapolis Police officer Derek Chauvin had his knee on Floyd’s neck. Protesters were asked what brought them to the demonstration on Saturday and some said it was in solidarity with the protests happening in Minneapolis. Fires have ravaged the Twin Cities for the past week as peaceful protests have turned to riots at night. After the crowd dispersed at the Civic Center, some made their way to I-35, where they stopped highway traffic to bring attention to their cause. The Duluth Police Tactical Response Team
helped move the protesters off the highway just before 7 p.m. After sunset protesters moved around town. At one point, some were on Central Entrance. At another, they were at 4th St and 6th Avenue West. Before sunset, somebody spray painted “Fuck 12” on the ground at the Clayton Jackson McGhie Memorial. Carter said he doesn’t condone rioting but isn’t going to tell others what the right way to protest is, either. “People are feeling frustrated and unheard so tensions are going to fly. They did what they felt like they needed to do.” The night came to a head at the 27th Avenue West Kwik Trip. The convenience store closed early after an employee was assaulted. Duluth Police Chief Mike Tusken said “a critical mass” of people had gathered there. He also said an officer was assaulted. The crowd was told to go home multiple times, as the city had imposed a 10 p.m. curfew. When many did not leave, tear gas was used. Chief Tusken said 11 people were arrested Saturday night, with only one being from out of town. There were eight reports of damage to property. He also said that on a typical night, the Duluth Police might have 18-20 officers on duty, and that Saturday night they had a hundred. Since Chauven’s arrest, Minnesota attorney general Keith Ellison has said he will take the lead in prosecuting the former officer. A curfew was in place again on Sunday night in Duluth but there was no overnight protest.

Carter said he is working to organize a community meeting. Once a date and time are set, he wants people to gather and share thoughts and ideas on what their next step will be.

‘There is just no transparency’
Pushback grows as state continues to shield info on COVID-19 in long-term care By Walker Orenstein MinnPost “The more knowledge we can have the more comfortable we are,” said state Sen. Karin Housley, R-St. Mary’s Point. “Even if it’s unpleasant, we need to know.” Early in the COVID-19 pandemic, Rob Carlson considered moving his 92-year-old mother from an apartment at a senior living facility in St. Paul. The building had “locked down” to combat an outbreak of the disease at the facility, and Carlson wanted to track how bad it was. But when he couldn’t get consistent information from management, Carlson and his partner, Gregg Larson, turned to state health officials for help. They came up empty once again. Carlson said he understands moving his mother carries its own risks, but knowing little about her current home has hurt his ability to judge the situation. “I have no idea how many cases there may be out there,” Carlson said. “There just is not transparency.” In fact, even as the disease continues to ravage those living in close quarters in places like nursing homes — 855 of the 1,050 COVID-19 deaths in Minnesota were among people living

“The more knowledge we can have the more comfortable we are,” said state Sen. Karin Housley, R-St. Mary’s Point. “Even if it’s unpleasant, we need to know.” MinnPost photo by Peter Callahan. in long-term care — the Minnesota Department of Health has continued to refuse to reveal the number of COVID-19 cases and deaths at each long-term care facility in the state, saying it could violate privacy laws or mislead the public. Carlson is hardly the only one frustrated with the situation. An influential state lawmaker, public
records activists and others are calling for MDH to change course, saying the agency would make the public safer, or at least better informed, by divulging deaths and cases at each facility. “The more knowledge we can have, the more comfortable we are,” said state Sen. Karin Housley, R-St. Mary’s Point. “Even if it’s unpleasant, we need to know.”
COVID-19 is more dangerous for the elderly and people with underlying health conditions and can spread easily among people living in close quarters. Despite some efforts to control infections, the disease has sprung up at long-term care facilities like nursing homes and assisted living centers across Minnesota. More than 250 longterm care facilities have or have had at least one confirmed COVID-19 case among staff, contractors or residents, according to the state. The Health Department has given little public information about these outbreaks, however. In March, the state refused to name any of the facilities with known cases, citing privacy laws aimed at keeping personal health information from the public eye. Under pressure from media and lawmakers, the department eventually backtracked, and it now posts that data to a public website, though facilities with fewer than 10 residents are not listed. MDH has occasionally released other aggregated information, such as the number of long-term care facilities with two or more cases, or large outbreaks. But the agency hasn’t reported spread at individual facilities. Individual long-term care facilities have sometimes told the public about their outbreaks, including St. Therese of New Hope, where more than 50 have died. MDH spokesman Doug Schultz said the agency’s “legal guidance” is that identifying the number of cases and deaths at each long-term care facility, even in aggregate or summary form, could reveal private health information about individual people. For instance, if a building had 15 cases but fewer than 30 residents, Schultz said it could be easier to identify who might have COVID-19. He also said MDH would not publish the number of cases by residence for the general public, say, at an apartment complex, so it wouldn’t do so for a long-term care facility either. Beyond the privacy concerns, Schultz said it would take MDH time to routinely update a list of case and death information at each long-term care facility, which he said would “not be a wise use of limited public health resources.” Schultz also cautioned that listing facilities and their known cases “wrongly encourages people to look
for hotspots and make assumptions, often incorrect, about the risks in those facilities.” Contractors or service providers have refused to enter places they assumed were hotspots, “putting residents at greater risk by not performing critical or needed services,” he said. “People should assume any facility could have cases,” Schultz said. “A better gauge of the safety of a facility is to understand their infection prevention policies and protocols and resident and worker safety measures in place.” So far, the Health Department has encouraged people with loved ones in long-term care facilities to ask building management about outbreaks. MDH’s explanation hasn’t persuaded Mary Streitz, a Minneapolis resident and attorney at Dorsey & Whitney. Streitz said her family is looking for a long-term care facility where her father can move. She wants to find a safe place, and feels she could make an informed decision better with case and death data. The state should be the most reliable source of this information, Streitz said. Instead, she’s relying on scattered press reports and the voluntary transparency of a prospective long-term care facility. Under the current situation, management at long-term care facilities could have incentives to publicly downplay an outbreak, Streitz said. In a state that often describes itself as a paragon of “good government,” Streitz said, she would hope the data on COVID-19 cases “would be available to members of the public.” As for the idea the public would not be able to properly analyze case and death data, Stretiz said she believes people can be trusted not to jump to wrong conclusions. In her case, she would expect to use the state’s data and other information she is gathering “to determine on the basis of all the
facts and circumstances what is the appropriate decision for our family.” Larson, Rob’s partner, also dismissed the argument that the public isn’t capable of properly analyzing the data: “There’s nothing more onerous than government agencies that decide not to give out information because we might react the wrong way to it.” Housley, the GOP senator who chairs the Senate’s Family Care and Aging Committee, has also objected to the Health Department on the issue. Housley said she has been asking for data on COVID-19 cases and deaths in each long-term care facility and plans to demand the information at a hearing Tuesday afternoon. Housley said the government has to “trust the public” and said residents, family members and staff “deserve to know what’s going on where they’re at, or where they’re going to put a family member.” Housley has frequently criticized MDH during the COVID-19 pandemic for what she says is a lack of transparency on how the agency is handling outbreaks at long-term care facilities. She has pushed for more information lately about the practice of discharging patients infected with COVID-19 to nursing homes and the strategy and results behind more widespread testing of staff and residents at long-term care facilities. Not all believe the Health Department is legally restricted from disclosing COVID-19 case and death counts at long-term care facilities. Matt Ehling, founder and executive director of Public Records Media, a nonprofit that advocates for government transparency and better access to public records, said that while releasing the names of individuals sick with COVID-19 would be prohibited, it’s not “legally defensible” to suggest that releasing the number of cases at each facility would identify specific people.

Red Lake Nation votes for medical cannabis Plan is to use sovereignty to expand on state’s ultra-conservative take on plant
Just a couple days after the historic vote by the Red Lake Nation in favor of medical marijuana, the man who led the initiative to its successful conclusion was still euphoric about the 80 percent majority that supported the proposal. And, he promised, this is just a step toward full legalization on the reservation, and, he hopes for other tribes as well as the entire state of Minnesota. “We’re celebrating together,” Jones told The Reader by telephone. “I hope this opens up the journey and a new path for Minnesota with the cannabis industry.” The results in the May 20 vote to allow a medical marijuana operation on the reservation were 1,765 in favor and 425 against. “It was a record day,” Jones said. “It was a nerve-wracking day for me, but I had a feeling it was going to pass because of the 2,500 signatures we collected.” In order to put a resolution before the tribal council could bring it to a tribal referendum, Jones and other supporters of medical marijuana had to obtain 2,500 signatures in support of the proposal. Jones said the effort to involve the tribe in the marijuana question was needed because the by state once again left tribes out of the equation when it created its medical marijuana program. “When Minnesota opened up the medical cannabis program, they didn’t include any tribes. That really caught my attention,” Jones said. “If Minnesota can make a program without including native tribes, we can make things here in Red Lake and start practicing our sovereignty.” But Jones believes the Red Lake Nation is ready to exercise their legal authority on this matter. “We’re going to tell them what we’re going to do,” he said. “This is what we’re going to do, because they left us out so much. I’m tired of them taking a lot of what we had. Now they’re trying to take our sovereignty away. I wont; allow them to do that. I will fight for our sovereignty I know the council will

back us if we run this industry right.” The initiative passed on the reservation veers from the rather restrictive Minnesota medical marijuana program in that it allows the marijuana flower to be used as a medical delivery method. Minnesota allows only manufactured oil and pill forms of of medical cannabis. “There were so many supporters for medical cannabis in flower form,” Jones said. The tribal program also allows for more medical conditions than the Minnesota program allows. “We added 20 more conditions than Minnesota has,” Jones said. Jones said he takes his cue on using the Red Lake Nation’s sovereignty for medical marijuana from the Paiute tribe in Nevada that opened the first hemp lounge in Las Vegas when no one else could by invoking the sovereignty of the tribe. “I started traveling all over,” Jones said. “I went to different reservations where it was legal and got in touch with the chairmen and the people who owned the dispensaries to see how they run things. I took their advice. I went to reservations in Nevada where it’s legal. Benny Tso of the Paiute tribe opened up the first dispensary in Las Vegas and he used that sovereignty. He showed me ow to write up the laws. We didn’t have cannabis laws here in Red Lake. We didn’t even have hemp laws.” And that’s really where the journey began for Jones and the group known as the Red Lake Legalization Team (they have a Facebook page). “The only law they had here was for the Red Lake College to grow hemp,” Jones said. “They left out band members to grow that. So the Red Lake Legalization Team, we created the hemp law. We applied for our hemp

and cannabis licenses at the same time. We went to the tribal council meeting of July 2019 and asked for our licenses. That;s when we found out we didn’t have laws for anything we had going on. They issued the hemp license to me anyways.” Jones was now ready to go into the legal hemp business, with 250 acres of land to grow the plant. “A few months later, we ran into more problems,” Jones said. “We had to come to a stop because there were no laws for me to grow. I would have broke the tribal codes if I grew hemp.” So Jones went back to the tribal council and said there need to be hemp laws on the books so he can start what he believes will be a very beneficial industry for the entire tribe. He learned there was neither funding for nor manpower to write up the necessary laws to create a hemp industry. “What I did and our team did, we put the cannabis and hemp laws together for our tribe, so we can eventually go to full recreational.” Those laws had to go before the tribal code committee. “I thought they were going to reject them,” Jones admits. “They liked them.” The next step was to have a tribal council member propose a resolution for the people to vote on medical marijuana. It was then put on the ballot during the May 20 election for four tribal council members. “The council could make a decision themselves,” Jones said, “but I wanted it to be the people. I didn’t want it to be like the alcohol referendum we had here a few years ago to allow alcohol at the casinos for the customers, and that failed.” Jones said as he campaigned for passage of the medical marijuana initiative, many people told him they
wanted full recreational. “We had to explain to them, one step at a time,” he said. “Medical was our first step. We campaigned hard for legalizing medical cannabis. We reached out to ever band member. We went house to house, before all this COVID-19 stuff. We went to pow wows. We made the parades. We just kept getting signatures.” Jones even sees a day in the nottoo-distant future when the 400-some people who voted against medical marijuana begin seeing how the new industry benefits the community. “Those 450 people, they will benefit off this program, either way,” Jones said. “Even though they voted no, they’re still going to get a piece of the pie. We don’t view them as our enemy. We want this for all our people. “There are companies up here that provide us revenue,” Jones continued. “I’m talking about our casino and the other programs that are here today, our Red Lake fisheries (sending walleye to the world). We don’t benefit off that right away. But with this new cannabis industry coming in Red Lake, the people will see something once we get fully operational. That’s what I want here in Red Lake. I worked so hard for this. I want this nation to come out of poverty, and this is how we do it. I want to practice our sovereignty. I encourage tribal members from any other nation that want to do this, do it, because they can. They have to have the power and belief in their people. The people are the ones who make this happen, now the power people who are running the council.” Jones said his plan for a multimillion cannabis industry on the reservation is no pipe dream. It comes from his visits to other tribes that have gotten into the marijuana business, and his own recent experience growing hemp on 250 acres and selling natural hemp products and buds under the Red Lake Chippewa Hemp label. “That’s something I started last year, and now today we’re doing all that,” jones said of the Red Lake hemp store. “Let us continue on our journey for our people. Full legalization, that’s our next step. I want to work hard and make this an industry that runs by the law. The cannabis industry has laws and they have to run by them That’s what we’ll do, run by the law. I don’t know what the tribal council’s going to do. I hope they go in the right direction and let us continue on our journey.”

Women being the property of their husbands continued. Voting was still restricted to property owners. The Bill of Rights – the basis of all our freedoms – was not adopted until December of 1791 eight years after the treaty ending the war was signed. For more than 200 years many people have been denied the rights and liberties expressed in our founding documents. So obviously the American Revolution did not bring us “liberty and justice for all.” The truth is the hard work of actually making our society more free, just, and safe has been done by social, economic and political activists – not soldiers and wars. It was activists who created, expanded and defended our civil and political rights. These battles were fought in the courts, legislatures and streets – not foreign battlefields. It is the abolitionists, suffragettes, civil rights activists, labor organizers, peace marchers and social justice workers who have struggled to make “freedom” a reality in America (often
with modest success). There were many reformers who applied justice and equality under the law to voting, housing, employment, the justice system, civil rights and many other practical aspects of a truly free society. Veterans or the military did not lead or contribute to these struggles. In fact, the military has often been the instrument to suppress democracy, lawful dissent, and the many struggles for social justice and a better America. I do not denigrate the sacrifice of combat veterans. They should be remembered. They have suffered. Our troops, and their families, are victims of war the same as the “enemy” and the many civilian casualties we callously call “collateral damage.” But these memories should motivate us to say, “never again” rather than promoting the next war with false platitudes. Their sacrifice should motivate us to stay out or senseless, no-win wars. We need to be honest with ourselves about our history and the real reasons for our many wars. We have been lied to by the recruiters, politicians, and war profiteers. The real purpose for putting veterans on pedestals is to maintain recruiting goals and to keep the money flowing to the defense industries. We only deceive ourselves when we buy into, and repeat, the false platitudes. We can appropriately honor those who died serving our country without honoring war. Then we can foster the attitudes, behaviors, and policies that promote peace, justice, equality and respect for everyone in our society. Then we will begin to have real freedom.

for succor. If classification as a person voids legality (no such thing as an illegal person they say) then why is this useful concept not applied to all classes of people? I wait for a city to open its encompassing Californian arms to embrace illegal beauticians/barbers and medical practitioners who merely lack documentation. What’s important, people or papers? It’s high time indeed for sanctuary salons to form a new cutting edge of people’s power. A trendy salon could even be named cutting edge or people’s power or both. Think of it, pure democratic freedom at work. But being realistic I think we’d need an entire sanctuary state or two to accommodate all the drivers formerly seen as unlicensed or uninsured. Hair needs are common, but our getting-about needs are greater still. A sanctuary state for “illegal” drivers could prove a safety measure for the rest of us. It was with some surprise I heard the U.S. Canada border was to remain closed for another month. There goes many a spring fishing trip and possibly the futures of the small resorts and camps used (and I have to add loved) by visiting fisher people. (It’s Canada, after all, where fisherman and human are sexist racist insults.)
But as resort owners and guests can be seen as already overprivileged it’s OK, a small price for justice. Of course it will hurt if it is your livelihood, hard work and future shut down in lock down. That’s why we have sage voices of authority to remind us of the greater good. Having your income lost or knee caps smashed by thuggery may hurt for a time, but later on you’ll be thankful knowing the true value of a penny or of taking a step without pain. I don’t know where the idea came from or how it struck me, but was suddenly hit by the vivid impression of Canadian Premiere Trudeau, a precise model of what a government under the sway of Greta Thunberg would do with imminent human pandemic demise added to global climate catastrophe. A whiny 16-year-old with a solid footing in fear should be able to whip those forces into fight-everything form. Trudeau and Thunberg are much the same person or emotional being (hard to decide) with a slight separation of decade. (Does this make Justin and Greta spiritual equals? Theologians help me.) Proper minds (an area where religious and political thought sometimes meet – scared now?) tell me not to make fun of others’ fears. Fears are real. They should not be mocked. It is a human (we’re in the U.S. so it’s still OK to say that) requirement to take others seriously and believe what they say (their truth) as whole-cloth legitimate. I am obliged to emphatically agree that fear is absolutely real. At age 10 if I woke with a foot near or over the edge of my mattress I was up and awake so quickly I hit the ceiling and had to aim for the safe dead-center (an irony) of the bed. Nothing else mattered but the secure safety of middle mattress, far from the deadly edge. An equal mystery of how I was able to leap completely free of pajamas as I flew ceiling ward was completely overshadowed by the certain horror of the thing lurking under my bed that would pull me down to doom and damnation were I to carelessly let a foot stray to the edge where the monster thing could get me. What it did during the day or why I could find no evidence of a lair or gap beneath my bed for it to live were small matters compared to the wild fright knowing that damned thing
Stay home, organize We’re between two historical epochs now: B.C. and A.C. – “Before COVID-19” and “After COVID-19.” Established institutions, entrenched regimes and powerful corporations are well-positioned to navigate the uncharted waters of this in-between, D.C., or “During COVID-19,” time. Less equipped are the poor and workby ing class, unable to gather safely, to protest, to rally for better conditions. The novel coronavirus has amplified the gross inequality that dominates our society. Just look at the disconnect between the stock market and the plight of workers. It seems with every announcement of historic job loss, the Dow Jones and the S&P 500 shoot upward. On Wall Street, they’re counting gains, while on Main Street, they’re digging graves. “These are hard times,” Rev. William Barber II said recently, appearing on the Democracy Now! news hour. “A lot of the pain is by choice. It didn’t have to be. It’s not because of the virus, per se. It is because of the pandemic of greed and lies and trickle-down economics that caused us to move in the wrong direction from the beginning.” Reverend Barber went on: “Even before COVID hit, too many people in power were too comfortable with other people’s deaths. We have 140 million poor and low-income people in this country, 43% of the nation, 700 people dying a day from poverty and low wealth, twoand-a-quarter million a year and 80 million people either uninsured or underinsured before COVID hit.” Barber is co-chair of the Poor People’s Campaign and president of the nonprofit Repairers of the Breach. He and Campaign co-chair Rev. Liz Theoharis of the Union Theological Seminary are calling on people from all walks of life to join a digital, online “Mass Poor People’s Assembly and Moral March on Washington” on June 20 at June2020.org. “Don’t you believe these lies these governors are telling

Rev. Dr. William Barber speaking at a rally. us about the time to open back up,” Barber implored. “Stay at home. Stay alive. Organize. Organize.” Shortly after his interview on Democracy Now!, Barber spoke at a virtual mass action, a nationwide strike staged by workers at McDonalds restaurants. Fast food workers there and at other restaurant chains have been organizing the Fight for $15 campaign for a living wage for years. One worker after another spoke on the live video stream, detailing the challenges and risks they face daily as part of our sprawling, underpaid and virtually ignored essential workforce: “I’m a McDonalds worker here in Kansas City, Missouri,” Fred Marion said. “I’m going on strike because, as you see me and you hear me, I am a human just like you. I may not be a doctor or a paramedic, but I’m out here on the front lines just like them, and I’m human just like them. We deserve PPE, hazard pay, health care and $15 per hour – it’s just a living wage.” Angelica Hernandez spoke in Spanish, inspired to strike by her co-worker who was stricken by COVID-19 and is currently on a ventilator. McDonalds, she said, showed no interest in providing protective gear for workers. Katerra Wilkins added, “We’re risking our lives for $7.25 per hour.” In solidarity with striking workers were speakers like Mary Kay Henry, international president of the Service Employees International Union, and epidemiologist David Michaels, who served as head of the Occupational Safety and Health Ad-
ministration under President Barack Obama. Democratic Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand of New York spoke, pointing out that “even after Congress passed an emergency paid sick leave law in March, 75% of workers were left out, thanks to carve-outs for big businesses like McDonalds ... Making sure everyone can afford to stay home when they are at their most contagious is crucial to combatting this virus.” Meanwhile, in front of McDonalds’ corporate headquarters in Chicago, activists installed a symbolic picket line of sign-holding, cardboard silhouettes of striking workers. Armed, overwhelmingly white, right-wing vigilantes storm state capitols, while the undocumented, the poor, communities of color, those most at risk, keep our economy moving: growing our food, working in slaughterhouses and warehouses, delivering packages and meals, cleaning our hospitals, and caring for our elderly.

AWOL: The One Percent Democratic Socialism rescues disaster capitalism – again Our elected representatives are currently appropriating trillions of taxpayer’s dollars to save our economy from the ravages of COVID-19 and disaster capitalism. Here we go again. Economists who have studied capitalism for many years say that recessions and depressions happen about every 8 to 10 years between bull and bear markets. The last Great Depression started in 1929 when Wall Streeters opened up upper-story windows and leaped. Then Franklin Delano Roosevelt used the principles of by democratic socialism and the policies of his “New Deal” to lead recovery from the world-wide depression. Prior to the invasion of COVID-19, the top One Percent of households in the last decade surpassed the wealth of the bottom 80 Percent. Regardless, Donald the Lyin’ King lies he has created the greatest economy in the world. Facts have never bothered Donald. Almost half of American families can’t come up with $400 to cover an emergency. Eleven million families can
barely afford an apartment, spending more than half their income on rent. They can’t afford food. Prior to COVID-19 about 600,000 Americans were homeless. It’s hard to imagine how many will be added to the streets in the near future. It’s not all Trump’s fault. This economic disaster was fathered by Ronald Reagan and the California Mafia 40 years ago. Remember tax cuts and trickle-down that resulted in golden showers of trickle-piss on the middle class? Fact: 90% of Americans born in 1940 have earned more than their parents had earned at the same age, but only 50% of those born in 1980 were earning more than their parents by age 30. The economic ladder is very difficult to climb because institutions such as education, housing and health care have not been adequately funded for the last half century.

Where are the billionaires and millionaires with all the money? The rich are getting richer even during COVID-19. Just in one month between March 18 and April 20, while 22 million Americans lost their jobs (now 36.5 million), the Institute of
18 June 4, 2020 DuluthReader.com
Policy Studies has estimated billionaire wealth has increased by $282 billion, a 10% increase. We have about 700 billionaires (now worth $3.2 trillion!) and 19 million millionaires who could be helping out the 36.5 million workers waiting for unemployment checks. The protected wealthy are being cared for by the unprotected “essentials.” That’s the difference between private jets and public subway cars and buses. That’s the difference between cashiering or nursing and telecommunicating from homes or from vacation homes or private yachts. Looking at some of the richest zip codes in the U.S., the airports at Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard are crowded with private jets as the rich escape the virus. The wealthy havens of Jackson Hole, Wyoming, Palm Beach, Hilton Head Island, and Sun Valley are packed with rich refugees hiding from the virus invader. The locals are really ticked. There are 87,000 foundations in the U.S., with 40,000 of them established by super-wealthy families. Why foundations? Super tax breaks and control of where their money goes. Rich people like to have their names on university buildings, hospital wings, art galleries, museums, theaters, opera houses, and grants of money to think tanks that push their political agenda. Financial records indicate our 700 billionaires average less than one percent in charitable giving. Americans with incomes between $60,000 and $90,000 contribute between two and four percent. Ever hear of Donor-Advised Funds? They are “holding accounts” the rich use to save taxes. Once they put money into a DAF, they get a tax cut, even if the money doesn’t go to a charity immediately. The billionaire gets the tax break but the charity may not see the money for years. This is what a bought, rented or leased Congress does for their employers. Isn’t it time for the AWOL rich to help America? Four decades of tax cuts and billionaire-friendly policies have helped the rich to grow their wealth by more than 1,100% in just the last 28 years. But in the last 38 years their tax obligations have decreased an amazing 79%. The median increase in middle-class
household net worth went up a paltry 5.4% in the same time! Now about 60% of Americans are suffering from poverty, income inequality and atrocious health care policies during the COVID crisis. The level of sacrifice being demanded from the working class is truly medieval. We currently have about 11 million undocumented workers in this country who are essential to our survival. Fact: 8% of the undocumented work in maintenance and sanitation, 8% work in the service industries, 16% work in health care and motels and hotels, while 24% pick our foods and staff our grocery chains. Congress proclaimed they are not eligible for stimulus checks or any other kind of payroll protection assistance. The cruel month of April will turn into a cruel year of 2020 if we don’t help these essential people. Jeff Bezos, the richest man in the world who refuses to pay about half of his million employees a living wage, donated $131 million to a number of charities in 2018, or an amazing 0.16% of his income. American taxpayers supplement Amazon workers with food stamps and government health care. They work in hellhole distribution centers in pro COVID-19 conditions. Many fulltime workers are homeless. Jeff’s income often increases by millions each day. The last total I saw for him was $172 billion. This would enable him to pay the $60 billion the entire food stamp program presently costs taxpayers – and the $61 billion the state of New York needs to cover all COVID-19 costs at this time. He would still have $51 billion left to struggle living well in his Washington home (two mansions combined into one) with its 27 bathrooms. Bill Gates, the second richest man in America at $116 billion at my last count, does contribute more to various charities than Bezos, and has promised to cover large expenses of developing COVID-19 vaccines, but some of his philanthropic work has failed because he always feels he’s the smartest guy in the room. Sometimes he isn’t. His foray into education was a disaster. Science is why we don’t go to an auto mechanic for a root canal or a well-digger for a procto. Among Bill and Melinda’s various properties are two homes valued at $157 billion and $147 billion – and a
California beach cottage at $43 billion. Let’s put the Forbes 400 to work for all Americans Doctors Without Borders is a volunteer group that usually serves in third world countries where wars, epidemics and other disasters have occurred. They are now working in the Navajo Nation reservation in Arizona. Food, water, housing, health care and other essentials are hard to find on the reservation. The Navajo Nation has already lost more people to COVID-19 than 13 states. We should be embarrassed as a nation that calls itself the richest in the world. But we have a lot more to be embarrassed about: 1. One out of five children below the age of 12 are hungry while we spill thousands of gallons of milk on the ground and kill millions of pigs and bury them in landfills. 2. The most dangerous places during COVID-19 are prisons, jails for the undocumented, housing for migrant farm workers, Indian reservations, homeless shelters and nursing homes. These people are now called “The Forgotten.” We have only 4.5% of the world’s population – but have 30% of the virus fatalities. 3. According to Pew Research, 43% of adults say they or someone in their household has lost jobs or pay. By summer we will probably have 25% unemployment. Fewer than half say they have enough funds to cover three months of expenses. So far loans to small businesses have actually gone to big “well-connected” businesses. 4. More than 30% of our workers are called “essential”: nurses, home care and child, farm, food processors, truck drivers, warehouse and transit, drugstore, sanitation, police, firefighters, and many others. They presently lack protective gear, paid sick leave, health insurance, and child care. All of them deserve hazard pay for continually being forced to face death. Why are American workers dying of COVID-19 at a higher rate than European workers? Could it be because of differences in medical care and the strength of unions? 5. There is no doubt we were the most unprepared industrial nation to face the 6,869th virus. Some priests and ministers say “pain and suffering is God’s megaphone to a deaf world.” There’s little doubt mankind has been decimated by pandemics in the last 7,000 years. Evidently we are deaf. Drug cartels are feeding the poor – where are our billionaires? Mexican drug cartels are feeding millions of poor in several Mexican states, using military-style trucks and

uniformed drivers and workers. They distribute food in boxes emblazoned with names of cartel leaders! Evidently they know politics better than the Trump administration. Where are our plutocrats and billionaires who own Congress? Why aren’t they helping the poor? I guess they are hiding in their vacation estates on their tax-haven islands – or on their yachts in safe harbors. Billionaire Jack Dorsey of Twitter has donated $10 million to buy computers for Oakland students. He is one of the few who have stepped forward. He has promised $1 billion for the Pandemic Action Network. The info is a bit sketchy. Experts on our homeless glut say we could solve it by spending an initial $10 billion and then $4 billion a year for a few years. Taxing the top 25 richest families just two percent (they donate an average one percent to charities), would bring in $15 billion. Just think: that would take 600,000 possibly dangerous virus carriers off the streets, overpasses, bridges and subway cars. Too many of our wealthiest have forgotten they didn’t get rich all by themselves. Barack Obama put it best: “If you’ve been successful you didn’t
get there on your own. Somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your life. Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you’ve got a business-you did not build that. … The internet didn’t get invented on its own. Government research created the Internet so that companies could make money off the internet. The point is, that when we succeed, we succeed because of our individual initiative, but also because we do things together.” Practically all of the 25 richest American families and the 15 richest American individuals have gotten extremely rich in the last 40 years. They have gained much of their wealth by buying Congress and purchasing the policies that have made them rich. They turn tax evasion, insider trading, hedge fund machinations, and equity firm firings from white collar crimes to “lawful” legal actions. Actually, to save themselves, they can’t desert or go AWOL or even their kind of America will be lost. The Mexican drug cartels understand that.

The cost of education
In fiscal year ‘19, Minnesota’s public schools received revenue totaling $13.494 billion. The state contributed $9.525 billion, $3.762 billion came from local property taxes and other local-source revenue (endowments, fees, etc.) and federal government threw in $754 million. The State of Minnesota’s total general fund spending in fiscal by ‘19 was about $22.5 billion, meaning public school spending comprised 42%. If we accept the argument made by the people who control our school board that ISD 709 is a fiscal basket case because of inadequate state funding, a few questions need to be asked: How much do they want? How much would be enough?

Would 50% of the state’s general fund spending be enough? 60%? $9.525 billion is a pretty hefty pile of dough, and doesn’t include the state’s long-term pension liabilities. What is the breaking point, here? Measures of value When it comes to government fiscal responsibility, I put a pox on both political parties. The evidence for my point is the national debt clock, spinning completely out of control. I think both parties have abandoned us on this flinty terrain, but in Duluth –especially in our school district – the Democrats run the show. The Democrats are married to the unions, and this political marriage has been a problem in reining in district costs and attaining some reasonable changes in how our money is spent. The DFL/union political powerhouse constantly beats the drum for more education spending. DFL and teacher union advocates place themselves on higher ground, by arguing that
spending for education is – in and of itself – a key measurement of our social values. They want the purse strings loosened and billions more pouring into education across the state. But if nothing changes in the way the money is spent, will there ever be enough to satisfy their needs and desires? “All those years of teaching,” former teacher and current Governor Tim Walz exclaimed to a rally organized by the union group, Education Minnesota, in front of the Capital building in May 2019, “I wondered who the hell was at that table (advocating for more state education funding,) Well, guess what, 80,000 teachers sat at that table today!” Mr. Walz’s predecessor, Mark Dayton, was no skinflint in education spending. He increased K-12 funding $2 billion during his eight-year tenure as governor, repaid the $1.8 billion the state had shifted from school district’s to balance its books and allowed 165,000 Minnesota children to start benefiting from all-day free kindergarten. State coverage of kindergarten freed up $1.4 million in the Duluth district. More than $90 million dollars ($90,587,777) of state tax money poured into Duluth public schools last year, and the teachers’ union, the Board of Education and the Superintendent continue to describe the State of Minnesota as too chintzy. How much do they want? Would $100 million do the trick? $150 million? Gotta love teachers, but… I wish we could pay teachers what we pay doctors, and much more than we pay lawyers. Getting pre- and postpubescent emotional whirligigs (aka, children) to settle down and learn something has to be one of the greatest challenges on earth. Teachers deserve respect – considerable admiration – for their patience, beneficent mission and classroom knowledge. When it comes to money issues, however, does the teachers’ union really have the answer? I would remind everyone that the Duluth teachers’ union backed the Red Plan. Several of the pro-Red Plan letters to the editor in the News Tribune were signed by teachers. One letter, signed by 40 teachers, praised school board candidates promoting the Red Plan in an upcoming election: “Teachers support these incumbents because they understand the needs of our students. They have shown they value our students by their actions in supporting the long-overdue facilities plan… They do not waste the scarce resources
provided to ISD 709 by the Legislature and governor.” Really? There weren’t any scarce resources wasted here, and more waste yet to come, if the teacher’s union DFL partners get their way and Central High is torn down? After the Red Plan’s self-destructing financing structure began creating havoc with the district’s budget, former President of the Duluth Federation of Teachers union, Frank Wanner, reversed course and complained on the record in the News Tribune: “We can afford state-of-the-art (what the Trib described as two “Olympic-sized”) swimming pools, but we can’t afford the teachers we need in our classrooms. I think that’s sad.” The union boss also tipped his hand about district 709’s wasteful priorities in a union newsletter in Sept, ‘13: “8090% of the reduction in the district budget (over) the past five years has come from a reduction of the number of teachers. That reduction in the number of teachers is helping to pay for the cost of the Red Plan.” Wanner obviously came to figure out that the consolidation project was directly and seriously hurting the district’s operating budget, but I’ve only been able to find one instance of him speaking the damning truth to the general public – and he used that opportunity to wash his and the union’s hands. This is the way former board member Harry Welty described what happened in his blog: “Frank Wanner was a member of the Citizens Committee that signed off on the Red Plan with its mega-schools, which are driving people out of Duluth. He didn’t attend many meetings. He just signed off on the Keith Dixon’s extravagance…Teachers got behind the Red Plan (because) they had to stay in good stead with Duluth’s languishing construction unions. (Teachers) supported the ruinous Red Plan that diverted so much local levy into building bonds at the expense of a couple of hundred teachers… Wanner (later) ridiculed the school board after the damage was done – for not knowing better.” Education Minnesota is the political arm of the NEA and the AFT teacher unions. The organization is also affiliated with the AFL-CIO. Reporting on the rally Gov. Walz held with Education Minnesota last May, MinnPost observed that the group “has a strong lobbying presence at the Capital every year.”
The teachers’ union exerts a lot of political power locally, as well. Last year, the local union funneled $7,486.76 into the school board race: $300 for each of the union’s endorsed candidates, $1,982.01 for a fund raising event at Clyde Iron Works, and $4,604.75 for printing and mailing promotional literature. When you pay out money, you generally expect something in return. Former Duluth teachers’ union President Wanner complained in a 9/13/13 union newsletter that the initial offer put on the table by the district during contract negotiations in 2013 was a betrayal. “Some of the people on the school board are no longer the same people we helped get elected,” he told fellow union members, but it was the DFLendorsed board members who got the message. I have sympathy for the teachers, and do not begrudge them, but the district narrowly averted statutory operating debt status in ‘13 and couldn’t afford the contract approved in ‘14. At the minimum, some reasonable concessions in health care contributions were needed or the budget would slip into more deficits, and then the salary and benefit-concessions the teachers won would hurt them more than help them – because a broke budget would continue to leave them short-staffed and overworked. Because the negotiations didn’t conclude until fiscal ‘14 was virtually over, the union did forgo a raise for that year. Teachers instead opted for a 3% increase in fiscal year ‘15. The 3% raise jumped total teacher salary compensation $2,109,971, not counting step-and-lane and longevity increases. Salary/wage compensation for all other district bargaining units – which mimic the teachers’ contract – increased $2,139,087. Total expense, just for salaries/wages alone, jumped in the neighborhood of $5 million in one year. Annual deposits into district employee HRA (Health care Reimbursement Accounts) jumped the following year. The district’s minimum reserve balance, under policy, should have been about $9.5 million in fiscal ‘15. It’s actual unrestricted reserve, while the board handed out this kind of largess, was less than $2 million: $1,696,987. ISD 709’s own reserve worksheet predicted the organization would crash into statutory operating debt again by 2017 – exactly what happened. Wasn’t always like this “Teachers really respect our administration, and it wasn’t like that for many years.” Former teacher, and

board member, Judy Seliga-Punyko, crooned in a 7/21/10 News Tribune article. “We were able to settle contracts (and get everything we wanted) without acrimony,” Union President Wanner said about Keith Dixon’s new attitude and approach towards the union’s demands. Dixon tore a rift through Faribault, Minn., where he was previously employed as superintendent. That district also careened into statutory operating debt status after he left. The teachers’ union gave his leadership skills a 66% vote of no confidence, and the school board started debating buying out his contract. The cottontopped hustler was shrewd enough to understand what would likely happen if he stepped into Duluth and started all the disruption and destruction of the Red Plan without first winning over the teachers – so he put on a Santa Claus suit and started giving them everything they wanted. Mr. D. blew through our reserve fund and broke the bank in every imaginable way. True to the template he developed in Faribault, he left a fiscal and social catastrophe in his wake. The pattern Dixon set in motion in Duluth is going to be very hard to get out of. Teacher protests and strikes, erupting in West Virginia, Arizona, Kentucky, Oklahoma, California, Colorado in recent years, displayed the power of angry teachers – very sobering for anyone focused on education to observe. A teachers’ strike in Duluth could very well be the final nail in the coffin of a public school district that has made so many foolish decisions and depleted its once bountiful reserve. During the April school board meeting, member Eder asked the district’s CFO a question about the recently announced increase ($1.1 million) in the employees’ HRA accounts: “Does the $1.1 million go to an increased amount in the HRA account, or is that $1.1 million going to an increase in paying the premium – or am I way off?” The CFO responded: “This is actually a contribution into each individual account. We are also expecting a health insurance premium increase.” Next year’s preliminary budget estimates employee benefits to consume nearly a quarter (24.8%) of the district’s General Fund spending. The dollar amount is more than $28.5 million, with a couple of pennies tossed in: $28,525,637.02. In response to member Eder’s question, board member LoefflerKemp jumped to the union’s defense with the oft-repeated claim that the district saved a lot of money when the teachers agreed to transfer their health coverage to the state’s Public Employee
Insurance Program. Loeffler-Kemp – an intense union supporter – went on to claim health care coverage shifted to the program “a few years ago… provided large cost savings to the district.” The transfer to PEIP happened a decade ago and any savings have been eclipsed by cost increases. In a closeddoor meeting, during the last contract negotiations, HR Manager, Tim Sworsky, called the union’s “running total” of savings “flawed logic.” During the same meeting, Superintendent Gronseth remarked about the district’s failure to get the union to share more of the insurance premium cost: “In the last negotiating sessions (2013-14,) 20% on single-payer was our charge, and well, (he chuckled,) we didn’t get there. Then we tried for 10%, and we didn’t get there either.” Board member Johnston asked thenCFO Hasler: “So, have you figured out what that 10% savings (in single payer premiums) would be for us?” Hasler replied that it would be “in the ballpark of $200,000.” I immediately knew this figure
was inaccurate and was astonished no one in the room challenged it. In 2017, the district’s total annual cost for single payer health insurance premiums was $4,467,053.80. A 10% employee contribution would have saved the district $446,705.38; a 20% contribution would have saved $893,410.76. The school board basing its negotiating stance on inaccurate information is obviously a problem. No attempt was made in the 2017 negotiations to get any concession. “To have totally paid health insurance, whether it’s single or family, is totally unheard of in this day and age,” HR Manager Tim Sworsky stated with some hard realism during the 2017 meeting, then added: “It’s kind of become the cost of doing business.” With the DFL – the union’s consort – running the boardroom, this cost will continue to spiral upward. We can’t keep cutting from the kids’ education, so the question becomes: How long can taxpayers (many of whom have very expensive, poor or no health care coverage themselves) keep covering it?

recent refugees brought to the U.S. were indeed Christians, as if that should matter. On the other side were callers who said St. Louis County should stand up for being a welcoming place, and that those against refugee resettlement were expressing the same sort of misinformation, rumor, racism and fear that earlier immigrants faced when they came to this country earlier in our history. Commissioner Patrick Boyle mentioned a sign he has on display in his office from the early 20th century, a Boston want ad that says “No Irish need apply.” A caller in support of resettlement read from the lumber camp writings of a man who went on to be a prominent attorney and who had nothing good to say about the backward, dirty, just-off-the-boats Swede immigrants he had to work with in the lumber camps. A Virginia woman pointed to the “welcoming history in our country, state, and especially here on the Iron Range” where the culture is based on many different ethnicities coming to work and live. A Hermantown man said he tried to look at the issue through his young son’s eyes, and came to the conclusion that his son’s life would be richer in a community open to refugees. “We all do better when we all do better,” he said. “Today I speak with a heavy heart, a heart that is open and it’s breaking over the racism and hatred I have witnessed over the past five months since we started this conversation,” said Commissioner Beth Olson, who first brought the resolution before the board. She thought this would be an easy vote since the board represents a county full of immigrants, but instead there has been, she said, “a campaign of misinformation and lies.” Olson told her fellow commissioners that while their vote on the issue may be symbolic, it’s much bigger than symbolism or even refugees, saying the people want the vote to be taken so they “know where we stand individually and collectively.” She referred to the vote as “a referendum on what kind of county we are – open to outsiders and welcoming or scared
by differences.” Commissioner Keith Nelson acknowledged several comments that refugee resettlement doesn’t rely on local tax dollars. It does, however, rely on federal dollars, he said, and “the federal taxes come out of my back pocket.” He said he sees this whole thing as a way to bash Trump. “It’s one more dog whistle from the Trump Administration to pander to far right support, so let’s attack ‘em,” he said. Nelson added that he remains in office because he listens to his constituents, and they “overwhelmingly told me that they don’t agree with this. They simply do not.” “The problem that has hit me in the heart since the beginning of this is family reunification,” said Commissioner Paul McDonald. “Just put yourself, all of you, in that position, not being able to reunite with a family member.” McDonald also attempted to dispel some of the misinformation that callers had dragged in, such as the majority of refugees being Muslim. “In the last few years it hasn’t been,” he said, adding that 79 percent of recent refugees were Christian. Commissioner Patrick Boyle said all those with a fear of Muslim immigrants should know they are repeating the not-too-distant history when this country had a similar fear of Papists (Catholics). Ultimately, the board voted not to act on the question. Instead, the board approved in a 3-4 vote an amendment from board chair Mike Jugovich to send the question back to county administration until the question of Trump’s executive order is settled in the courts. The four voting for the amendment to once again delay the question were Commissioners Jugovich, McDonald, Musolf and Nelson.
All we can do is try to be nice Author’s note: With all that’s going on, just try to be nice to everyone you see. Please. “Just try to be nice to people,” my grandmother always said. “You can’t change who they are or why they are. All you can do is try to be nice to people.” My grandmother was a practical and spiritual woman who believed in the ways of Jesus and knew how to get rid of warts by rubbing them with a piece of bacon under a full moon and then having a third party hide the bacon under a rock. It seemed to work. She never rubbed our noses in religion. She could also find water with a forked willow stick, sang in the glee club and caught walleyes by casting Lazy Ikes in the dark. During the Depression, hobos and those down on their luck could get a meal and she later told me that our family always had enough to get by and share. She taught me to whistle loud enough by to break a pane of glass. “Just try to be nice to people.” I thought of my grandmother the other day after reading about the continuing efforts by conservative Christian groups to get energized politically and engage in the “spiritual war” they say is underway, even amidst a pandemic. According to some of these fearful folks, Hell is just over the horizon and the vehicle this nation is riding in is blindly headed right toward its fiery realm. These folks just don’t seem to be thinking the way Jesus might expect them too, what with their mixture of God and the fear of free thinkers and immigrants and the dislike of gays, the belief in the free market and tax cuts and good old competition to keep prices in line, deregulation and a membership in the NRA and their belief in the never-ending need for national defense.

I was reading about this born-again fellow by the name of David Lane who has been organizing Pastors’ Policy Briefing symposiums across the land in the hope that evangelicals and conservatives will hop on board and get their version of God in the political arena to shape up the nation. That doesn’t sound nice to me. I’m sure there’s some money to be made in the process, a way to make an honest living, I suppose, and he’s been pretty clever to invoke the Constitution as a sort of divine document, ordained by God. Maybe that’s why they have such a problem about guns and the Second Amendment. Since the document was ordained by God and it says we have the right to bear arms, well, how can you go against God on that one? The Christian right will likely be pretty quiet after another death of an unarmed black man, unless it’s to blame the victim. Let’s just see how they respond to more killings. I’m pretty sure they’ll stick with the old argument that only more guns will protect the innocent and that some people just have to stay out of trouble with the police. Every election year Republican candidates show up in Texas to hobnob with the pastors and drop a few hints about how religious they are and how the liberals and the progressives are not and that’s why this nation is in the pickle it’s in. God is on their side and obviously the Devil is setting the roster on the other team. People like the converted Newt Gingrich or Franklin Graham will be fawning over the chance to show that they go to church and believe in the Good Book and the Word of God and by golly that so many people don’t seem to care one bit about the fact that this nation is exceptional and that we have been blessed. We’re letting it all slip away apparently. I guess those folks haven’t noticed the greed of the marketplace nor the selling out of the nation in exchange for a better profit and a tax cut for the wealthy. Gingrich was quoted as saying that the right to bear arms was ordained by God. He said American exceptionalism was proven because its founding documents were endowed by the Creator himself, even though the
founders saw it fit to continue to bans and doing something, anything, allow the institution about climate change.

How to name that bird Q: I know you have occasionally written about birds in the yard and garden, but I haven’t paid too much attention to the birds in my yard. Over the past few weeks of being stuck inside, I have noticed a lot more birds in the tree outside my office window. I assume they are migrating. There have been several with red feathers, and some with yellow, that I have never seen beby fore. I have an old bird book, but I can’t seem to find any of the birds in the book. What tips can I use to identify these beautiful birds? A: I teach an ornithology class at my local master naturalist program at the university extension office. “Master naturalist” is a designation similar to “master gardener.” You should check to see if there is a class in your area. The first thing I tell new birders (the new, sportier term, which sounds better

In trying to identify birds, look for the dots, spots and stripes on the head, body, wings and tail. than the old “bird-watcher”) is that you will probably remember where you were when you saw the bird and what the bird was doing. Just like you said, you were in your office, and the birds were in the tree. But what we don’t remember is more important, so we need to be diligent in paying attention. You must look for the dots, spots and stripes on the head, body, wings and tail of the birds. Repeat that last sentence out loud a

couple of times to help it sink in. As soon as you see the bird, pay direct attention to these color differences on the bird. The smaller the bird, the more attention you have to pay. There will be several birds on each page of the bird book, and they will only differ in small ways through the dots, spots and stripes on the head, body, wings and tail. If you don’t look for the differences, all you will be able
to remember is the general information of where you were and what the bird was doing – such as flying or hopping on the ground. Another important thing to note that comes a bit more automatically is the size of the bird and the size of the body parts. Is the bird the size of a sparrow, robin, chicken or turkey? Is the tail longer than the body? Are the wings long and slender or
short and stubby? I think you could recognize more birds than you realize, along with their general body shape and size. You can use the birds you know to help you group the birds you don’t know. Think about the birds you learned as a kid, such as the ostrich, swan, vulture, penguin, flamingo, duck, goose, dove, finch, cardinal, bluebird, heron, oriole, hawk, eagle, falcon, owl, hummingbird, woodpecker, quail, stork and seagull. I can go on and on. Each of these names has many species that differ mainly by the dots, spots and stripes on the head, body, wings and tail, and somewhat by size. The birds in the book that are not on this list can be compared with these for size and color patterns. Another thing that will help you identify the birds in the book is reading about the kinds of habitats they live in and the range of areas they spend the summer and winter. You would not expect to find swans in the woods, right? Some birds are very specific as to where they live, and others are more general. Most bird books have maps that show the summer range of where the
birds breed, with a different color for the areas they spend the winter and a third color for areas they are only seen during migration. Because birds don’t read the bird books, they can sometimes be seen out of their normal range. But a person new to birding should probably assume they need to keep going through the book to find the right bird if their first choice is way out of its normal range. We are in the peak of migration in most of the country right now, so keep the binoculars handy, and keep a sharp ear out for new sounds. Most bird species make songs that can be used to identify the birds, but it often takes much more practice to learn these songs than it does to identify birds by appearance.

Ecolibrium3 is a Lincoln Park-based nonprofit and collaborated with the manufacturer Frost River on the project to produce the face shield materials. Ecolibrium3 works to inspire and lead change in our community toward an equitable and sustainable future and has been nationally recognized for its effectiveness and impact.

Duluth Superior Pride Festival 2020 canceled
Ecolibrium3 organizes to supply and support
Ecolibrium3 launched a new Pay It Forward PPE project at Essentia Heritage Sports Center. The new venture works with community volunteer groups to assemble face shields to protect frontline workers, raises funds for area nonprofits, and provides facemasks for community members. Volunteers from U.S. Bank and Duluth LISC provided assistance for one of the inaugural volunteer sessions. Their efforts raised funds for the AmeriCorps Legacy House in Lincoln Park, an affordable housing project for community service volunteers. Ecolibrium3 will fill 60 four-hour volunteer sessions in order to complete 360,000 face shields and provide 30,000 face masks to community members. Ecolibrium3 CEO Jodi Slick said they hope other businesses and organizations will step up to volunteer with the project. “With our COVID-19 Preparedness Plan, we’re able to
The Duluth Superior Pride Committee held a special meeting on Tuesday May 26 to discuss the 2020 Duluth Superior Pride Festival, in lieu of the COVID – 19 pandemic. The Committee voted to cancel 2020’s Pride Festival, to be held at Bayfront Festival Park, Labor Day weekend. This year’s festival would have been held Saturday, Sept. 5. The committee felt the safety of community members could not be guaranteed and didn’t feel it wise to take the risk of people becoming ill due to COVID 19. Duluth Superior Pride Festival has been an event that has spanned 33 years in the area. The committee wants to assure the community that they are discussing alternatives to an in-person festival, such as a virtual celebration, art show, musical entertainment and other events to keep this annual event a time of true celebration for the Duluth Superior area.

a Peace Walk. There is a lot of pain and violence in the news, especially in our nearby city of Minneapolis, and protesting and rioting nationwide and worldwide. The anxiety of Covid-19 threats and deaths, and widespread economic troubles are still with each of us; these and more sufferings are taking a toll on individuals and communities. Yoga North sees these sufferings and feels the pain in our state and nation. We want to offer something to our community. Peace Walk Duluth is a project that Yoga North and partners worked on with a beloved peacemaker in our community. The Peace Walk features locations in Duluth that have
historical significance in other painful times. These locations memorialize injustices and wrongs done to people, symbolize struggles in wartimes, and mark contributions toward peace. Even the act of walking with sunshine and wind is soothing, and can be contemplative. We invite you to check out the photos and location descriptions on the peacewalkduluth.org website, or bring your family to walk this Peace Walk, following along and learning with the brochure or the location descriptions on your device (note: brochure is legal paper sized in case you need to adjust for your printer). Bring along a rock or other memento to help you with hopefulness and contemplation.

Duluth Herald June 4, 1888 HOODLUMISM. Severe Expressive Measures Needed to Induce the West End Kids to Live a Christian Life. It is no use talking, but the fact remains that the average West End kid seems possessed of about twice the cussedness of the proverbial small boy. Not a day passes but that some complaint about petty thieving is to be heard. Mr. C. S. Pierce, the well known hardware man, recently planted a row of nice shade trees in front of his residence. On Saturday night half of them were stolen and some other girdled and destroyed. The linesmen of the W.U. and N.A. telegraph companies, both lost their railway velocipedes last night, and upon hunting them up found that they had been carried off by a gang of boys, who smashed the locks and broke the chains that held them, and damaged both machines. The perpetrators of this last misdemeanor however are known, and probably Judge Martin will attend to their case. Such things ar not a credit to any community and the parents of these youthful sinners should invest in a

caused the arrest of Albert Nestor this morning. He was short of an assistant cook in the Belle restaurant on the Bowery and was wanted in Two Harbors for separating a man from $35. Detective Irvine and Chief of Police C.A. Yernberg of Two Harbors went to the restaurant this morning about 10:30. Irving started back into the kitchen but was stopped by the chief cook and asked what he wanted. The detective said he wanted to see Nestor, and that much desired individual said that he would step
outside and see the officer, then he promptly made a dive for an open door in the opposite direction. He evidently intended making a fifteen foot leap for freedom, which is the distance from the rear of the restaurant to West Michigan street, but Irvine was too quick for him. The detective made a dive for the opening just as Nestor was preparing to take flight through the air, and fastening one of his hands in the fugitive’s suspenders, let him dangle till chief Yernberg came to his assistance.

In many cases where the boys are known the persons who are injured naturally hesitate to prosecute the offenders, disliking to brand young boys as criminals. Duluth Herald June 5, 1890 VISITORS TO THE MINES. Officers and Directors of the Big Iron Company Come. A special train arrived this morning over the Omaha, which contained a party of capitalists who represent something like $100,000,000. They are the stockholders of the Minnesota Iron company, and they are here to attend the annual meeting which takes place Monday morning. The time between now and Sunday the party will spend at Tower and viewing the mines of the iron company. At 4 o’clock this afternoon the visitors departed for Two Harbors, and they will spend tomorrow in looking over the Vermillion range. The return will be made Monday in time for the annual meeting.

Nestor had no desire to have social doings with the Two Harbors official and showed such a strong inclination to break way that he was taken to the jail with a pair of handcuffs on. The Two Harbors robbery occurred about three weeks ago. A woodsman went to the restaurant where Nestor was working nd showed a roll of $35, which the cook promptly grabbed. He walked all the way to this city, fearing to take a train. However he took the Duluth & Iron Range train back to two Harbors this afternoon. Duluth Herald June 7, 1910 TEACHERS’ PENSIONS. In accordance with a law wisely
enacted by the legislature in 1909, the city council last evening approved the formation of an organization to provide a pension fund for teachers in the public schools. This should, and doubtless will, have full public approval. The office of instructor in the public schools is a high one, but miserably paid on the average. By the time nine or ten months’ salary has been divided into twelve months’ living expenses, there is little left for rainy days and old age. One alderman last night protested that it would be better to pay higher salaries rather than to provide pensions. It would be better still to do both. Under the laws the teachers
themselves much contribute to the pension fund to place themselves in a position to benefit by it, and this is wise. However, the law authorizes a tax levy of not more than 1 mill, and the school district should provide through such a tax for such a contribution to the pension fund as it can afford.
The total of yesterday is the record of any registration ay for the city. The heaviest registration so far recorded was in 1917, when a total about about 17,000 registered. According to Mayor Magney, it is safe to estimate that before the special election June 21, there will be 20,000 registered.
Duluth Herald June 8, 1920 REGISTRATION SETS RECORD FOR FIRST DAY; MANY WOMEN Duluth Women Qualify for Ballot in Large Numbers. Total Registration for Day 10,465; Men, 8,343; Women, 2,122 The first registration day for the June primaries was the heaviest yet held in the city, according to the records on file at the office of the city clerk., Fred d. Ash. That the women are responsible for this is shown by the figures. About 19 per cent of the total registration was by women, and in the East end, where the registration of women was heaviest, it ran as high as 35 per cent. In some districts female registration equaled the male registration and in one district (the 11th) more women registered than men.

lars and cents, says Lori Hendrickson, Extension Educator and an accredited financial counselor with University of Minnesota Extension. “Often, when layoffs and income reduction happen, we are experiencing shock and denial that keep us from immediately making adjustments in our spending to keep us on solid ground,” according to Hendrickson. Layoffs due to the COVID-19 pandemic are an example of events that can have significant financial impact on many families in Minnesota. Working through the grief caused by a sudden drop in income allows families to plan for how to adjust their finances with clear heads, and the entire family should be a part of those conversations. Hendrickson advises, “When we are adjusting spending, it’s important to include the whole family. Talk about items in the budget that are necessary and those that can be put off or elimi-
nated altogether. Ask these questions: • Can we substitute a less costly item? • How can we avoid waste? • Are there opportunities to work with others by trading or sharing what we can do? • Can we save if we do it ourselves? • Can we do without? After determining the impact of the income loss, Hendrickson says to be sure to talk with creditors to let them know the situation and discuss when and how you may make payments.

Statins raise heart disease risk factor Q. I inherited very high levels of Lp(a), and I have known for years there is little I can do to reduce it. I tried niacin, but I can’t tolerate it. I grew up in Germany, where doctors test for this routinely. In the U.S., I have had difficulty getting it tested. My cholesterol is around 220, with HDL over 60. Since my LDL is high (around 140), I am now on Crestor. My doctor said lowering my LDL is vital, because it will also lower the Lp(a). Is that true? I have read a lot about this problem over the years to educate myself. Everything I read says there are no medications to date that lower Lp(a). I am 69 years old and worked hard for years following a healthy diet so as NOT to take a statin. (I ate tons of oat bran.) The more I read about high Lp(a), the more scared I got. My mother had a stroke. Can a statin by drug like the Crestor I now take really lower Lp(a)?
PEOPLES PHARMACY
JOE & TERESA GRAEDON
A. Lp(a) is short for lipoprotein(a), a particle in the blood that contains fat, protein and cholesterol. In the U.S., cardiologists have focused primarily on LDL cholesterol as a bad actor in the development of heart disease. Statins are very effective at lowering LDL. On the other hand, Lp(a) is also an important risk factor for heart disease. High Lp(a) levels can contribute to calcification of aortic valves (Biomolecules, December 2019). Surprisingly, statins may actually raise levels of Lp(a) (European Heart Journal, May 20, 2019). A meta-analysis of statin trials found that even when LDL cholesterol levels are lowered, people run a substantially higher risk of heart disease if statins raise their Lp(a) above 50 mg/dl (Lancet, Oct. 13, 2018). Don’t give up on exercise and diet just because you are taking rosuvastatin (Crestor). You may also want to ask your doctor about an alternate treatment for lowering LDL cholesterol. Evolocumab (Repatha) reduces both LDL and Lp(a) and in your case may be helpful against heart disease

(Circulation, March 19, 2019). Q. After years of treatment by a dermatologist for persistent acne, my daughter went to a naturopath who advised her to stop consuming dairy products. Within a few weeks, her skin was perfect. A. For decades, dermatologists maintained that diet didn’t matter with regards to acne. They preferred to treat pimples with antibiotics because they produced predictably positive results. Now, however, many doctors are trying to limit the use of antibiotic pills for this condition (Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, February 2019). There is growing recognition that long-term use of antibiotics can alter the bacterial balance (microbiome) of the body. Scientists have found that your daughter’s experience is not unusual. A diet rich in dairy products appears to make young people more susceptible to acne (Nutrients, Aug. 9, 2018). Avoiding milk as well as food with a high glycemic index can be helpful.

NUTRITION
Pasta choices
BY CHARLYN FARGO Creators Syndicate
If you’ve gone down the pasta aisle recently, you’ve probably noticed there are a lot of new choices, including pasta from more nutritious ingredients like whole-wheat flour, chickpeas, brown rice and legumes. But are they really healthier? Traditionally, pasta is made from milled durum wheat, which is a refined flour that has the bran and germ (the healthy parts) removed. What’s left is the endosperm, but the fiber and some vitamins are stripped away in the process. This is the case with white bread and rice. In the U.S., many nutrients, including niacin, riboflavin, thiamin, folate and iron, are added back through fortification. Whole-wheat pasta retains most of the bran and germ. It’s a more textured and hearty pasta, with twice the fiber and iron of enriched (regular) pasta. If you’re not crazy about the texture and slightly nutty taste, take a baby step and mix your whole-wheat pasta with traditional white pasta. Those other pastas on the market are made from a mix of flours, such as corn, brown rice, lentils and beans. Pastas from lentil flour can be much higher in protein than white or wholewheat pastas. Some, like chickpea pasta, can be higher in protein and fiber. Vegetable pastas, such as spinach or tomato, may or may not have a nutrient boost over traditional pasta. And brown rice pasta, while lower in fiber than whole-wheat, may appeal to you if you’re wanting a gluten-free pasta. So, what should you choose? Hands down, whole-wheat pasta with its natural fiber, vitamins and minerals is
a great choice. The nonwheat pastas, such as chickpea or lentil, can also be a good choice if you like the taste and texture and if you’re looking for a plant-based source of protein. However, if you plan to add a protein to your pasta dish, the extra protein in the chickpea pasta may be overkill. The bottom line? Choose whatever pasta you prefer, and make your portions reasonable. Then add plenty of vegetables, a healthy protein (shrimp, chicken or beans) and sauces that do not pile on the sodium or fat (think red over white). Pasta of all kinds can certainly fit into a healthy eating plan. The key is keeping to a good serving size (about one cup cooked) and healthy toppings. Q and A Q: My friends are cutting out dairy. Should I? A: If it agrees with you and you have no specific medical reason to avoid dairy, such as being lactose intolerant, then no, keep eating dairy. It is a good source of protein, calcium, vitamin D, potassium and magnesium. Many people who are lactose intolerant find that they can eat certain types -- often yogurt and hard cheeses -- without problems, so it’s worth experimenting. And there is a way to help lactose intolerance: by eating small amounts of milk with meals to build up your tolerance. If you do cut back on dairy, make sure you get enough vitamins, minerals and protein from other sources.

10 brilliant reasons to stop throwing out pickle juice It was a weird request. My friend Mary Ann asked if she could borrow some pickle juice. Huh? Who keeps pickle juice? The purpose of pickle juice is to keep the pickles fresh and flavorful. And when the pickles are gone, out goes the by juice, right? That practice makes Mary Ann cringe. Here’s the deal: Mary Ann is famous for her potato salad. She makes 10 pounds at a time, and it disappears faster than homemade ice cream on a hot summer day. Her secret (which she confides to only a chosen few) is sweet pickle juice. Not pickles, not relish – only the juice. And lots of it. So, I wondered if there might be other uses for the briny stuff? A quick search of the multiple thousands of tips readers have sent to me over the years, plus research online, came up amazingly positive!
EVERYDAY CHEAPSKATE MARY HUNT
Really, I had no idea that pickle juice had so many health benefits or could be used in so many ways. MEAT TENDERIZER: Most marinades to tenderize meat contain the key ingredients of vinegar and salt. Adding things like garlic, pepper or even a bit of sugar improves the flavor and end result. Bingo! Those are common ingredients in pickle juice – either sweet or dill. Use pickle juice to tenderize and flavor pork or beef – especially if you’re dealing with a particularly tough cut. PICKLED BEETS: Pour a can of drained, sliced beets into the pickle juice (sweet or dill), and after nine days, enjoy delicious pickled beets. DEVILED EGGS: For a lively taste, use leftover sweet pickle juice in deviled eggs, or mix into meatloaf or meatballs. FRY SAUCE: Make your own french fry dipping sauce like this: 2 parts mayonnaise, 1 part ketchup, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, 1 tablespoon sweet pickle juice. Mix well. Enjoy. VEGGIE PICKLES: Put any variety
Taking orders for Black Angus Beef
or combination of fresh vegetables such as sliced cucumbers, onions, carrots or pieces of cauliflower in leftover pickle juice (dill or sweet). In a couple of days, you’ll have delicious veggie pickles. PICKLED EGGS: Drop a few peeled hard-boiled eggs in pickle juice to make pickled eggs. Yum! Store the jar in the refrigerator for a few days until they become magically pickled. MARY ANN’S POTATO SALAD DRESSING: While she says that she never makes it the same way twice, Mary Ann insists on Best Foods (Hellman’s) mayonnaise, lots of sweet pickle juice, mustard, salt and pepper – all to taste. HEALTH BENEFITS Drinking pickle juice may seem really gross to you, and I was right there with you. But I changed my mind quickly once I learned its amazing health benefits. MUSCLE CRAMPS: Drinking a small volume of pickle juice relieves muscle cramps within seconds of ingestion – something for which there’s lots of anecdotal and medical evidence. HEARTBURN: Just a few sips
of pickle juice can quickly soothe annoying heartburn. Pickle juice seems to have the same health effects as straight-up vinegar. HYDRATION It’s mandatory to stay hydrated, especially while exercising. Hard workouts for longer periods of time, especially in the heat, can become problematic because sweating quickly depletes sodium (electrolytes) and potassium. Pickle juice is loaded with both. Sipping pickle juice after a hard workout will help you recover normal electrolyte levels more quickly. One last thing: Just in case you’re not one to consume enough pickles to produce lots of leftover juice, no worries! You can buy pickle juice in a six-pack, 12-pack or gallon!

The white wine decant Decant a white wine, you say? The mere suggestion will make jaws drop. Decanting, after all, is for older red wines and vintage Port, by primarily to remove sediment. At least that’s the time-honored custom. In reality, all wines – red and white, even sparkling ª benefit from decanting. For young red wines, the practice of decanting from the bottle into a glass decanter provides aeration that softens hard tannins. If you haven’t tried it, you should. It will enhance the overall experience of drinking a good red wine a bit too young. Decanting a white wine isn’t as widely practiced. For one thing, as we move into the warmer months, there is the issue of maintaining a decent chill on a white wine. But there is no question aeration brings out the more complex and subtle aromas of higher quality white wines. If serving a large group, maintaining the chill isn’t much of a problem. The wine is decanted, poured around the table, and just like that you’re ready for another bottle. Pretty simple. But when serving just yourself or one other person, not so much, unless you down it quickly, which I don’t recommend. I happen to have a decanter with a punt, similar to the punt you will find on many bottles of wine. The decanter came with a glass bowl that fits nicely inside the punt. Fill the glass bowl with ice, and voila, the wine holds its chill while you enjoy it at your leisure. You can find such a decanter at most major department stores, or do a search online. It needn’t be fancy to be highly effective. You can thank me later. You’re welcome.

Chacewater 2018 Rose, Sierra Foothills ($18) — The race is on, and the first dry rose wines of the 2018 vintage are coming to market. The Chacewater offers clean, fresh aromas of cherry and strawberry, is bone-dry and beautifully balanced. Made from 100% syrah, it’s a great example of syrah rose. Rating: 90. Tasting Notes Tongue Dancer 2017 Chardonnay, Pratt Vineyard / Irwin Lane, Russian River Valley ($39) — Winemaker James MacPhail has a knack for this style of chardonnay, which combines rich, creamy texture, intense aromatics and uber ripe aromas with exquisite balance. Therein lies the beauty of a MacPhail chardonnay. It has everything without having too much of any one thing. And the finish here is spicy and long. Rating: 96.
but the most important reference on the label is Morgan, the longtime Monterey producer known essentially for stylish reds and whites that are crowd pleasers but don’t cost a fortune. This modestly priced syrah is another beauty from Morgan, showing notes of blueberry and blackberry with smooth tannins and a spice note on the finish. Rating: 90. Mumm Napa Valley Blanc de Blancs, Napa County ($22) — Mumm Napa consistently delivers an elegant sparkling wine product at a relatively modest price, and this blanc de blancs is no exception. It has notes of lemon and brioche with a touch of nuttiness on the finish. It is smooth, complex and delicious. Rating: 90.

Frank Family Vineyards 2017 Chardonnay, Carneros ($38) — Over the years, Frank Family chardonnay has stood out from the crowd because of its restraint. That restraint shouldn’t be mistaken for a lack of flavor. The 2017 Frank Family chardonnay easily dispels that notion, showing intense aromas of lemon oil, baked apple and brioche, with a touch of oak vanillin and wood spice. Rating: 94. Wente 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon, Wetmore Vineyard, Livermore Valley ($35) — The Livermore Valley east of the San Francisco Bay area seldom gets the attention it deserves, which serves to keep a lid on prices. That makes it an exceptional resource for wine lovers more interested in value than cachet. Wente’s Wetmore Vineyard cabernet from the 2017 vintage is a value gem, delivering layers of ripe black fruit aroma with supple tannins, a touch of wood spice and impressive length. Rating: 92.

Natural Connections Spring is Not Cancelled By Emily Stone Naturalist/Education Director at the Cable Natural History Museum Over the past few sunny days, my anxiety levels have been rising. Oh, there’s the global pandemic to worry about for sure, but that’s not why sunshine has me worried. The issue is that I’ve been laserfocused on my computer lately,
while I create virtual versions of our MuseumMobile lessons before schools dissipate for the summer. You can access them through the banner on cablemuseum.org. And while I’ve been working inside, I’ve been worried that outside, spring is happening without me. What if I miss the Dutchman’s breeches flowers? Will all the bloodroots have dropped their petals by the time I get there? I usually don’t count on seeing all the flowers before Mother’s Day, but is spring coming early this year? Time is passing differently during the lockdown. So, on one particularly warm, sunny afternoon this week, I headed up to St. Peter’s Dome and Morgan Falls to see for myself. This Research Natural Area boasts one of the best “northern mesic forest” communities in this area. What does that mean? Rich soils with plenty of nutrients and water (but not too much water) support deciduous trees such as

sugar maples. And underneath those still-leafless trees, in the strengthening sunshine, thrives a community of spring ephemeral wildflowers. Ephemeral means fleeting, transitory, evanescent, flitting, and impermanent. Those synonyms give me a little thrill, I’ll admit, but also a tingle of terror. Ephemeral means that if you don’t get out into the woods at the right time, these absolutely exquisite flowers will return to dormancy beneath the surface and you’ll have to wait an entire year to see them again. Right now, a year feels like a lifetime. I examined my anxieties, knowing that my life would indeed go on even if I missed out on this one ritual of spring. A Mary Oliver poem came to mind, where she mourns the death of a river, and grieves for “lost joyfulness.” When someone in the poem asks: “Isn’t this somewhat overplayed?” She justifies her feelings by saying, “it can be a friend. Companion. A hint of heaven.” Indeed. These wildflowers are old
friends. Friends whom I can’t infect, and who can’t infect me. And if not heaven, they certainly transform the forest into a fairyland. As I wound my way through gravel backroads – hopefully toward a rendezvous with my friends – I peered into the woods for clues to their wellbeing. Vivid green patches of wild leeks (also known as ramps) popped up here and there. I’ll be harvesting those soon. I love making both quiche and pesto with the pungent leaves. They replace all the greens and spices in a recipe; no additional spinach, garlic, or onions needed. In a move that’s as lazy as it is sustainable, I pick just one leaf per cluster instead of digging up the muddy roots. Less washing. Less impact on the population. It’s a winwin. The green leaves of leeks are refreshing for both the eyes and the palate, but they aren’t one of the flowers I’m seeking. Wild leeks don’t
bloom until July, which is weeks after their leaves have finished storing the sun’s energy in their bulbs as carbohydrates, and withered away under the thick shade of the forest canopy. Why this separation? Well, the leaves need sun, but the flowers need pollinators, and each is more abundant in their own season. To everything there is a season, and after I’d hiked just a short distance down the trail, I was comforted that I had not missed this one. A few pinkstriped faces of spring beauties smiled up at me, but many patches were just filled with their skinny little pairs of leaves. Where’s that patch of wild ginger I always look for? The unfurled leaves were still small, and the single flower bud I spotted was tightly closed. In contrast, my chest opened a little, relaxing in the knowledge that my fears were unfounded and I had not missed spring. My favorite patch of bloodroot was blindingly white, seemingly in full flower. Zooming in with my camera, though, I noticed a couple of bare stems, where a pollinated blossom had already shed its petals. These are one of
the earliest bloomers. The showy pantaloons of Dutchman’s breeches flowers were also near peak bloom, with no flowers past their prime, and some buds still expanding. But the white of trilliums was still bundled up tight, and not a single plant had more than a swelling bud. Several hours flew by as I followed my camera up and down the trail, trying to find just the right light and just the right angle that could help me capture the joyfulness present in these ephemeral wildflowers. In our current chaos, it is comforting to know that spring is not cancelled. “It is a serious thing just to be alive on this fresh morning in the broken world.” – Mary Oliver, “Invitation.” Emily’s second book, Natural Connections: Dreaming of an Elfin Skimmer, is now available to purchase at cablemuseum.org/books.

College OT should go back to 10-minute form When you go to a hockey game, if you’re like me, you want to see an outcome. Even if your team doesn’t win, you want to see someone win. If the game winds up in a tie, bring on overtime. In the by NCHC, a 5-minute sudden death overtime was followed by a 5-minute 3-on-3 overtime, and if that didn’t solve the game, a shootout followed that would. As an unapologizing purist about the sport, I also appreciate deciding the game during 5-on-5 play, just like regulation. That desire goes back to determining that the best team doesn’t have one or two hotshots, but has the ability to put a 5-man unit on the ice that skates and interacts as a unit, sharing the puck and working to free up a good scoring chance. Back in the 1970s and ‘80s, the WCHA was the unquestioned best league in college hockey, and winning the NCAA tournament was a regular reward. Let’s look back and see one of the reasons it was the best. Pick a year, any year. Let’s say the 1970-71 season when Michigan Tech won the league title, over Denver and Wisconsin in a close race. Minnesota and North Dakota played to a tie, and that was the only tie all season by any WCHA teams. The next year, Notre Dame joined the league to make it a 10-team WCHA, and Denver won the league title, and there was not a single tie game in the 28-game regular season. In the 1982-83 season, there were two games that ended in ties, all season. Now let’s jump ahead to the 1988-89 season when every team had at least one tie and there were 18 ties ascribed to the teams’ records meaning there were 9 ties in league games. In 1992-93, UMD won the league title with a 21-9-2 record, and in that

This past, pandemic-shortened season, the new and revised system of overtimes, followed by 3-on-3 overtimes, and then by a shootout, there were still 12 games that ended in ties. So what happened? It’s one of those intricate historical questions that the current college hierarchy should study closely. Back in the 1970s, I was covering the
WCHA and the North Stars in the NHL, and I would routinely question the NHL officials because with all their streamlined travel and chartered planes and such, the NHL did not use any overtime in regular-season games up into the 1980s. College hockey set the standard for the game. In the WCHA, if a game ended in a tie, the teams would gather for one, 10-minute overtime period. Sudden death. Remarkably, almost every tie game would be decided in that single
overtime, and almost always in the first two or three minutes of the overtime. Finally, the NHL decided to go to regular-season overtimes, but they were worried about it. They decided to play a single, 5-minute sudden-death overtime to decide all ties. In fact, I covered the game back at Met Center when the Minnesota North Stars and the Los Angeles Kings played a 3-3 tie and then played the first regular-season overtime in NHL history. At that time, the WCHA powers

It was the same in college, except that when faced with a 10-minute overtime, both sides knew there would be no way to sit on a tie for 10 minutes, so they would play hard from the drop of the puck, and generally settle things on the first two or three shifts. But the colleges switched to the NHL-style 5-minute OT periods, and settled so few of them that the

NCHC went to the 3-on-3 session for the following 5 minutes, and then a sudden-death shootout. It’s exciting, and nobody leaves when the game goes to 3-on-3, and especially to a shootout.

Everybody thought that was a great idea, and they bought the prevailing idea that since the 10-minute OT almost always decided ties in the first two or three minutes, a 5-minute session would be just fine.

As I remember, I was the only dissenting voice. I suggested that the 10-minute session worked extremely well, and the reason they rarely needed the full 10 minutes was a peculiar hockey tendency.

In the 1983-84 season, a starting unit of Matt Christensen centering Bill Watson and Tom Herzig, with Norm Maciver and Tom Kurvers on the points, was as formidable as a college hockey attack could be formulated. As it turned out, that team lost in four overtimes to Bowling Green at the NCAA championship game at Lake Placid. The reason it went four overtimes is that both teams could send out strong 5-man units to take on the other side. In fact, the reason either that team or the 1984-85 team was UMD’s best ever is because both of them could go through three full units, and maybe a fourth, and still have a strong enough unit to beat a worthy foe. If they went to 3-on-3 back then, who would Mike Sertich have sent out? Christensen-Maciver-Kurvers would have been fantastic, but it wouldn’t have shown UMD’s true strength. And after three or four shifts, half the team still would not have touched the ice, and wouldn’t have no matter how long they played. The reason for all this is that college hockey is approaching a crossroads season, if there is a season at all in the wake of our pandemic shutdown. Leagues are feeling turmoil, colleges are considering dropping the sport, and teams seem to be straining to gain a legislated upper hand over the rest of the nation’s college hockey programs. The NCHC is lobbying for going directly from regulation play to a 3-on-3 overtime, and they go into the upcoming college rules committee meetings hoping to convince all college hockey leagues to adopt the same standard. I would like to see college hockey return to one 10-minute OT, and then call it a tie. Trust me, there would be precious few ties. And then, we can do away with these silly added points if you win 3-on-3, or in a shootout that won’t count nationally. Ridiculous. Play it my way, the winner gets two points, the loser tries again next weekend, and all points count. That’s the way it was when college hockey was the best form of the game, and the West was the best in college hockey.

Minnesota Wilds’ Eric Staal is concerned about quarantiine procedures if the NHL is called back into action. Photo courtsey NHL. What of a Wild-Canuck matchup? Historically they have met only once in the playoffs back in 2003 when the Wild made it to the WCF. The Wild ousted the Canucks in 7 games in the 2nd round. Even though at a neutral site, VAN would get home ice advantage for line changes, faceoffs, and etc. In the here and now the two clubs met three times in the 19-20 season with the Wild going 2-1 with the GF and GA equal at 9. Off the cuff and in my opinion based on my season’s observations of the teams, I’d give VAN a slight edge in goal with Jacob Markstrom. Alex Stalock actually has better numbers then Markstrom, my overall feeling is that in tough games or sequences Markstrom looked better then either Stalock or Dubnyk. In Elias Pettersson, Brock Boeser, JT Miller, Horvat, Hughes etc., the Canucks can put a lot of skill on the ice. I’m not certain the Wild can match that even up, but on the other hand, I don’t think the Canucks hold the overall experience level that the Wild do. In the Wild’s favor is that they are one of the better clubs at limiting
opponents’ shots from high percentage shooting areas. I feel the Wild defensive group is likely better overall then the Canucks at this point. Then on the other hand, no one has played any games for going on two months now. Certainly that gives injured players a chance to rest and recover, but if you were a team that had to “build” your game up to a certain level, how does going cold into a tournament work out for you? As far as other data goes these two clubs are relatively close in the major stat groups. So, who prevails here? On the surface for me it’s a “pick’em” series. It seriously is. The only edge I could give either is that the Canucks young stars could get their games back quicker then the Wild’s older ones could. By the time the Wild caught up the series could be over. However, it takes experience to win a playoff series, and that’s something Vancouver’s young stars don’t have yet, series to the Wild. Whatever occurs in the near future, I’ll stand with the NHL in its quest to answer all questions before returning to play, that’s the right thing to do… PEACE June 4, 2020 45
cream in support of the region’s prodemocracy movement, reports the Associated Press. The shop’s owner explained he wanted “to make a flavor that reminds people that they still have to persist in the protest movement and don’t lose their passion.” “It tastes like tear gas,” said customer Anita Wong. “It feels difficult to breathe at first, and it’s really pungent and irritating. It makes me want to drink a lot of water immediately.” The owner tried several different combinations to achieve the flavor and found that black pepper came the closest. Before coronavirus restrictions, he said the store was selling 20 to 30 scoops per day. [Associated Press, 5/14/2020]
Fun with mannequins Some sports teams eager to return to the field have taken to placing cardboard figures of fans in stadium seats to enhance the experience for viewers, but the FC Seoul soccer club in South Korea was forced to apologize May 18 after propping up sex dolls in the seats for its match against Gwangju FC, The New York Times reported. “We had tried to add some fun in the nospectator match,” the club explained. “But we have not checked all the details, and that is clearly our fault.” “Details” included the buxom physiques and obvious logos of sex toy marketers on the dolls’ clothing that fans watching quickly noticed. “We had confirmed that although the mannequins were made to look just like real people, they had nothing to do with adult products,” the statement said, but the club admitted it had

Just funny University of Arizona wildlife biology professor Michael Bogan caught Saturday morning cartoons as they came to life in a video he recorded of a coyote chasing a roadrunner May 9 in downtown Tucson. Bogan could be heard on his recording saying, “There is literally a coyote chasing a roadrunner. I can’t believe it. That is a straight-up cartoon.” The reenactment of the classic setup between Wile E. Coyote and the Roadrunner caught Bogan’s attention near the Santa Cruz River, Fox News reported. And, as life often imitates art, the real roadrunner escaped unharmed from the wily coyote. [Fox News, 5/15/2020] The passing parade Police responding to a reported shooting in Poughkeepsie, New York, early on May 17, arrived to find a very drunk 35-year-old man from the Bronx who claimed he’d been shot in the buttocks, which caused him to fall and hit his head. The Hudson Valley Post reported the unnamed victim was taken to a hospital, where he was treated for his head injury, but doctors could find no evidence he’d been shot. There was no bullet hole in his buttocks, X-rays showed no bullet lodged inside his buttocks, and his pants had no holes in them, police said. Witnesses nearby were also intoxicated and unable to provide any clarification. When officers pressed the victim about his story, he became uncooperative and said, “I didn’t pull a gun.” [Hudson Valley Post, 5/19/2020] Homeschooling gone wild Parents have lodged complaints with the Archbishop Sentamu Academy in Hull, England, after discovering their seventh-, eighth- and ninthgraders were sent an exercise asking them to define pornography, soft pornography, hardcore pornography

Hull Live reported on May 19 that the assignments were made as part of the school’s sex education course, but one parent, identified as Mrs. Taylor, said if her daughter had searched these terms on the internet, the results would have “destroyed her mind” and “scarred her for life.” The school responded saying, “Students were not directed to research these topics themselves on the internet because all the answers ... were contained in the teacher-produced materials we shared.” Principal Chay Bell apologized: “I am genuinely sorry for any upset caused at this difficult time.” [Hull Live, 5/19/2020] Why Not? In Japan, people are enlisting the help of a long-forgotten mythical creature believed to ward off plagues in their battle against the coronavirus. Amabie, a mermaidlike being, first appeared in Japanese folklore in 1846, when she was reported to have appeared to a government official and predicted a rich harvest and a pandemic. She told the man the pandemic could be thwarted by drawing her likeness and sharing it with as many people as possible, BBC reported on April 23. Now, images of the spirit are appearing over five continents, and in Japan, face masks and hand sanitizer with her image are popular. One long-haul driver painted her on the side of his truck, saying, “I travel all over the country with my (goods) and Amabie to pray for the disease to go away.” Even the country’s Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare has joined in, tweeting an image of Amabie and encouraging people to “prevent the spread of the virus.” [BBC, 4/23/2020] Going the Extra Mile A nurse in the western Russian city of Tula has been disciplined for “noncompliance with the requirements for medical clothing” after photos appeared on social media of her wearing only a bra and panties under transparent PPE on a COVID-19 menonly ward. The unnamed nurse told her superiors at the Tula Regional Clinical Hospital that wearing clothing under the PPE was “too hot” and that she didn’t realize the protective gear was see-through.

Try some ‘Forbidden Fruit’ Marihuana/Narcotic: Forbidden Fruit vol. 4

DVD REVIEW IAN JANE
68 June 4, 2020 DuluthReader.com
a similar cloth, information about the cast and crew featured in the picture, Roland Price’s cinematography work, the controversy that obviously surrounded the nudity in the film (and how one of the cast members also appears in Esper’s infamous How To Undress In Front Of Your Husband). It’s a very thorough and interesting track with a lot of great information in it. A second commentary, an archival track from 2000, features the late Mike Vraney, founder of Something Weird Video, and the late David F. Friedman, exploitation move mogul extraordinaire. It’s a reasonably scene specific discussion of the film delivered with a great sense of humor. These guys are having a blast watching this film together, with Friedman delivering an enjoyably hammy reading of the “square up” before talking about the censorship history with the picture, how the film was a groundbreaker in many ways, how Esper was “one of the great, great creatures of exploitation” (Friedman tells some great stories about him), the way that alcohol leads to weed which leads to harder drugs in the film, where the film really does push the envelope in terms of its depictions of sex and vice and lots more. It’s a very fun listen. A second feature, the 57-minute Narcotic from 1933, is also included, which Esper co-directed with Vival Sodar’t. The opening scrawl tells us the film is meant to bring awareness to the scourge of drug addiction before we’re introduced to Dr. William G. Davies (Harry Cording), a medical practitioner of dubious morality. Davies’ life and career showed
great promise when he got out of medical school, but unfortunately, one night, he decided to visit an opium den, where he quickly developed and addiction. As he becomes more interested in chasing the dragon, much to the dismay of his lovely wife (Joan Dix), than in doing right by those who need his help, his practice quickly falls into disarray and he turns into a bit of a snake oil salesman, selling opium to potential patients as a cure. This one works on the same level as Marihuana did. It’s goofy by modern standards but reasonably strong stuff by the moral gauges of the era in which it was released. It deals quite bluntly in drug use, prostitution and moral decay and, again like the feature, is less than charitable in its depiction of Asians. Again, it’s a product of its time, and should be approached as such. As a drug scare film it’s pretty over the top and quite melodramatic. Davies’ descent is quick and, yes, quite ridiculous but the movie entertains. Again, Esper paces the picture well and it’s got enough sensationalism and taboo-busting footage to please those looking for cheap thrills and conflicting morality. The disc includes trailers for the feature as well as a trailer for Narcotic and bonus trailers for Reefer Madness and Test Tube Babies. Overall: Kino’s Blu-ray release is fantastic! Don’t go into this expecting pristine video quality, but compared to past DVD editions they both get substantial upgrades. The movies themselves are fascinating artifacts of a bygone era, both entertaining and amusing if often times for all the wrong reasons. It is, however, the extras here that really impress. Each of the three commentary tracks is seriously interesting stuff. Highly recommended to fans of classic exploitation pictures.

Infiniti QX80 big, roomy and impressive
GILBERT’S GARAGE by
JOHN GILBERT Infiniti QX80 can haul the whole family to tour Lake Superior. Photos by John Gilbert With travel severely limited during the Covid-19 pandemic, there still are some gems available. One popped up while road-testing the 2020 Infiniti QX80 – yes, the big one – for a week in Duluth, Minnesota. Word made the national news that Vikre Distillery in Duluth had changed over its operation to make hand sanitizer, and it was giving away the stuff free as a public service gesture to anyone who stopped by with a modest sized vessel at their shop, located in the shadow of the famous Aerial Bridge. My wife, Joan, is more of a neat and tidy type than I am. She’s one
of those who, on the rare occasion when I attempt cleaning something thoroughly, she will immediately complain how grungy it is. So she was enthused to accompany me downtown, driving through what seemed like a ghost-town via all the vacant roadways. She does share my feelings about SUVs and trucks that are too big – far too large for the person, couple, or small family that universally seems to be driving them, and as we drove, I pondered how big the QX80 really was. It steers and handles well enough, for a large vehicle, and those 22-inch

Bridgestone tires on stylish alloy wheels could probably crush a compact car if one got in its path. The big V8 and the enormity of the QX80 were well-matched, but I couldn’t help thinking of the various smaller Infiniti SUVs that are among my favorites in the whole industry. Compared to those, the QX80 seems too tall, too hefty, too big, and like a huge block to house all it has. I parked and walked around the rear of the QX80 with my 16-ounce jug in hand, past a couple of men talking to each other on the sidewalk. Being a non-drinker, it was my first time inside
the Vikre shop, and I was greeted by a friendly staff person who filled my jug out of the spigot and sent me off, out of the one-customer-at-a-time restriction. I walked back up the sidewalk, past the two fellows still talking there, and one of them said: “Hey, greatlooking vehicle you’ve got there. Very impressive!” “Thanks,” I said, explaining that I was just test-driving it, before I climbed in the driver’s door. Now, regardless of its size, the QX80 was a dazzling metallic red that almost seemed to flow off its high
Luxurious leather seating sets a high level for the QX80 interior. stack of sheetmetal, and maybe the color inspired this fellow’s comment, but he meant the vehicle itself, its shape and size, for being impressive. It made me realize, suddenly, that it takes all kinds to make up our car-buying society, and what might seem too big for some is just right for others. I must admit, I appreciated the contours of the QX80 much more for the rest of the week. Over the years, I’ve watched the vast herd of sport-utility vehicles rise from only a couple to everybody’sgot-one status, so I try to judge each one within the perspective of its own size, suppressing my original belief that if you need a big truck for hauling stuff, then get a big one, but don’t get anything bigger than you need, because to drive an enormous SUV around for status, when you might need a lot of storage room twice a year, is a waste. Among the 50 or so SUVs on the market right now, every manufacturer started out pretty big but then expanded downward after the competition discovered crossing over to car-based platforms that allowed continuous downsizing, suddenly attracting smaller families while also increasing performance and agility without heft. Nissan is a big player in the SUV world, both on its own and under its upscale Infiniti line. Most recently, Nissan’s compact Rogue has taken charge of all Nissan sales, leading the way ahead of some impressive sedans,

such as the Altima, Maxima, Sentra and Versa. Nissan also has its sturdy Pathfinder midsize SUV, it also went after the large end of the spectrum
about a decade ago with the Armada, a stout competitor for everybody else’s big-body flagships. When it comes to Infiniti, Nissan graced its luxury line with a fleet of sleek, swift, high-tech SUVs, some with high-performing turbocharged 4-cylinder engines, and most benefitting by actual transmissions instead of the sometimes annoying continuously variable transmissions found in most Nissans. Up at the top end of the Infiniti herd is the QX80 – the king of all it surveys in Infinitiland, which is a lot, particularly if you happen to be standing atop its roof. The QX80 is, in a word, huge, at 210 inches long, 80 inches wide, and 76 inches high. That’s tall, folks. Taller than any owners and occupants, unless they are over 6-foot-3. That means climbing aboard is a chore, made easier by a variety of solid grip-handles located strategically at all four doors. While driving the QX80, there are several impressive elements you can’t escape noticing. One is the power — it takes off with the roar and punch of a 5.6-liter V8, and, typically, this piece of machinery has dual overhead camshafts on either bank of cylinders,
and those pistons play an impressive tune, remindful of the good-old days when we could drive pony cars, or Z-cars, and coax that racetrack-like roar out from under the hood. The QX80, like Nissan’s Armada, of course, has benefitted by the corporate pickup truck venture. When they made the full-size Titan, the engineers wanted it to pull with the best of the competition, so it installed the big 5.6-liter V8 under the hood, helping it run away from competitors – except when it came to fuel economy. As an aside, while I’ve always been someone who pays close attention to fuel efficiency, I’ve always cut the Titan some slack because if a pickup buyer needs to haul or tow heavy things, paying a bit more for fuel probably is worth the tradeoff. After a decade or so of refinement, that 5.6-liter V8 is better than ever, snarling and putting 400 horsepower down on the asphalt, with 413 footpounds of torque zipping you off from a standing start, with or without the maximum 8,500 pounds of towing trailing obediently. QX80s come in various models, and the test-vehicle was the Limited All-Wheel Drive – top of the list.
From the rear, the QX80 can be loaded with enough bread, granola, cookies and cinnamon rolls to clean out a bakery. April4,23, 2020 77 77 June 2020
Equipped with everything Nissan could put on it from a performance, luxury, safety, comfort, and convenience standard, the QX80 Limited AWD lists for $93,795. For that, you can shop all sorts of competitors, from the top Chevrolet Suburbans, Cadillac Escalades, Lincoln Navigators, to the best Lexus, BMW or Mercedes SUVs and not find yourself out of financial range. But $94,000 is a lot of money. To reach that price segment, the QX80 has richly appointed leather seats for six, because it had the two captain’s chairs in the second row, while a three-across bench is available to boost capacity to seven. The wood and metal trimmed dash and doors house an impressive navigation screen that tells all about the safety items that you’ve activated, as well as the frequencies of the high-powered Bose audio system, with its 17 speakers. In the rear, the buckets flip forward with the touch of a lever, to assist the ease to climb into the third-row bench seat. It’s not like your living room back there, but there is sufficient space to carry a couple adults on a trip. Sitting in the second row, you have large, 8-inch monitors imbedded into the front seat headrests, so you can independently watch your own thing or play your own game. Quite the family hauler. Up front, the driver seat adjusts 12 ways, the passenger seat 10 ways. All the contemporary safety and security systems for handling and braking are in place, with lane departure warning and assist, blind spot alert, front sensors that detect anything in
your path, including pedestrians, and rear backup warning with collision intervention. The QX80 also has hillstart assist to make sure you don’t roll backward on a sharp hill. Such items as remote start and highbeam assist are nice features, certainly not out of place on the QX80. And the Apple Car Play and other connectivity alternatives have a WiFi hot spot of its own. Smooth cruising on freeways is also standard, and the 7-speed automatic transmission is adaptable through a manual mode, while operating the allmode all-wheel drive, which can be switched form automatic to 4WD High and 4WD Low. Mode control helps go from snow to towing settings, in case you want to pull your neighbor’s 8,500-pound rig out of a snowdrift. Joan and I remain committed to lighter, more agile and smaller SUVs that can reach 30 miles per gallon – which would be double the 15 we registered on the hillsides of Duluth with the QX80. But we also can look past the beautiful paint job to appreciate the utility of the extra large Infiniti. Besides, we’ve gotten great use out of our dispenser of hand sanitizer, and every time I pump a dose of it, I can’t help thinking about that fellow on the sidewalk who truly appreciated the size, shape and color of the QX80. Even if it was a bit large to use as a conveyance for a small jug of sanitizer.
Roomy rear seats have large video monitors to entertain passengers.
