What It Takes

In America, every four years the word “football” is surprisingly unclear. Americans know the word “football” to mean a sport played with an oblong ball and very little foot. In the rest of the world, the word “football” refers to a sport that is played almost exclusively with a foot. Hence the name of the sport. Why do Americans refer to this sport as soccer? Because the word football was already taken by a sport largely independent of the foot. Go figure.

CURE calls on Minnesota to halt permitting CO2 pipelines until PHMSA federal safety regulations are complete

Clean Up the River Environment CURE (Clean Up the River Environment), a Montevideo-based rural organization, along with partner organizations in Iowa, Nebraska, North Dakota, and South Dakota, are calling on the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) to advise states not to permit any new CO2 pipelines until regulations for high pressure hazardous liquid CO2 pipelines from PHMSA are complete.

Ask a trooper

Question: How do you determine if your tires are unsafe for winter driving? Answer: Over the years, I have investigated numerous crashes where worn tires were a contributing factor. Tires with inadequate tread depth may cause your vehicle to skid or slide out of control on a slippery or wet road surface. It is important to remember that unsafe tires can hydroplane on both wet and snow covered roadways. When losing control of your vehicle, you can easily go off the road and into the ditch, or into oncoming traffic, possibly causing serious injury or death.
