Five Minutes with Colin Wiita

Thu. Apr. 5th, 2012  |  Ed Newman

Colin Wiita was born in Duluth in 1974. I first noticed his art at the second annual “Love Your Local Artist” event at the Superior Library. Specifically it was his conversation with Clyfford Still, titled “Still Conversation”, that caught my attention and caused me to pay greater attention to his other pieces. He is currently married and a father of three children, ages 4 to 9, and lives in rural Wisconsin.

With Artist Brian Downs

Thu. Apr. 5th, 2012

Brian David Downs creates fabulous drawings with black ink as his primary medium. Some of his pieces are frightening, absolutely hilarious, curious or downright odd. He’s a graduate of St. Cloud University and he lives in the woods. His artwork has been featured on numerous bands flyers and posters around the Minneapolis area and few out in California territory. His show “If a Moose Dies in the Woods and No One is Sees it is it Really Dead?” is currently on display at the Ochre Ghost Galler

Whata Week

Thu. Apr. 5th, 2012

Punk at the Round Up If you’ve ever been to 4th Street’s Round Up Bar and Grill on a Friday night, you know that’s karaoke and half-price, really-big-burger time. But a Thursday 3.29 notice in the Reader listed a Move to Amend Awareness Show with 3 bands, and Nathan Ness with a corporate personhood speech. What a cleverly designed chance to find out what Move to Amend is all about without going to a meeting. Pat McKinnon gave us a poem. Three punk bands pe

Erik Brandt: The Long Winter

Thu. Apr. 5th, 2012  |  Paul Whyte

Although this winter was a fairly mild one, almost to the point of being unnerving, Erik Brandt from the Urban Hilbilly Quartet has a few things to say in his album “The Long Winter.” I for some reason imagine what an album will be like before listening to it and I’ve often been surprised by when I e

SkatRadioh: Pinnacle of Local Concert Poster Art

Thu. Apr. 5th, 2012

David Moreira, better known in the art world as Skatradioh, has taken local concert poster art to an entirely new level.    “The posters I’ve made are a great artifact for people who go to some of the shows and want to buy something to take back home with them,” Skatradioh said.  “There are instances when a fan of a band tells me they missed a show, but they really liked the poster with their name on it and buy it. Sometimes people b

Sacchetti gives Gophers a Northern flair

Thu. Apr. 5th, 2012  |  John Gilbert

Nico Sacchetti was unaware that the University of Minnesota’s NCAA hockey championship heritage has always featured Northern Minnesota players in key roles. In one weekend, Sacchetti, a senior from Virginia, MN., will go from learning Golden Gopher history to living it. He is the only Northern Minnesota player on the team, when Minnesota participates in this year’s NCAA Frozen Four.

SILVER CLIFF…. It’s two a.m. in the morning, and sitting around a nice little campfire atop this magnificent perch high above the majestic Gitche Gumee are myself along with the Grand Hockey Mystic, the Very Reverend Swami Puckta. I have been sipping some excellent, well, let’s call it “extract of cactus,” and the Swami—I’m not sure, but it looks like

America’s Mental Illness Disability and Dementia Epidemic: It Turns Out That the Drugs Are the Problem

Thu. Apr. 12th, 2012  |  Gary G. Kohls, MD

Since the introduction of major tranquilizers like Thorazine and Haldol, “minor” tranquilizers like Miltown, Librium and Valium, and the dozens of so-called antidepressants like Prozac, Zoloft and Paxil, tens of millions of unsuspecting Americans have become mired deeply, to the point of permanent disability, in the American mental “health” system. Many of these innocents have actually been made “crazy” and often disabled by the use of—or the withdrawal from—these commonly prescribed, brain-altering, and, for many, brain-damaging psychiatric drugs that hav

Searching For Bounty In The Colosseum On Sunday Afternoons

Thu. Apr. 12th, 2012  |  Ed Raymond

The One Percenters in the Roman Empire are being reincarnated in the American Empire over two thousand years later. There were no skyboxes or executive suites in the Roman Colosseum like in the dozens of gladitorial colosseums spread across the United States, but the booze and delicacies flowed freely in the reserved sections in Rome

The Growth And Nurturing Of Young Birds

Thu. Apr. 12th, 2012  |  Ralph LaPlant

With nearly 9,000 bird species worldwide, birds are survivors. Keeping this in mind, let’s get going on the journey of a bird’s life once it is hatched. There are two basic types of birds. Atricial birds are those that are helpless at birth and need their parent’s assistance to survive. Among others, robins and sparrows are classified as atricial. Precocial birds, on the other hand, only partially need parental guidance as they are born with their eyes open, have down feathers and are able to walk. Precocial birds include ducks, pheasants, quail and others.
