MPR News Reflections and observations on the news
Five by 8
The land of the rotting pipe, an annoying tax, a man and his dog, depending on the dump, and when you’re confronted by the unexpected.
A voice for vulnerable, on motivation, maybe our kids are smarter than we think, Iowa and the hostile work environment, and ice climbing in Saint Paul.
Overestimating your ‘wonderfulness,’ jobs and the health-care law, the value of the UMD brand, whatever happened to the tornado victims, and a Moorhead man steps up for the people he didn’t know.
Do nurses have the right to refuse a flu shot, after Macy’s, the 100-year-old employee, the rescuers who die while rescuing, and the Emancipation Proclamation outloud.
Can gadgets bring down a plane, the recession gang, Bakken by air, back to work at a monument that may not be finished in our lifetime and let winter begin!
Fracking 101, in search of a proper punishment, the outdated Constitution, the Russian plane crash on video, and hangover cures.
Royce White and the quest for a role model, the candy-cigarette debate, reliving history in Mankato, should car seats be required on the airlines, and evaluating the 41st president.
Focus on mental health care, the year’s news, the Oil Patch from space, Albert Lea’s story lady, and Charles Durning’s political analysis.
Paying it forward, why there’s no research on gun control, the people who don’t do their jobs and the people who just want one, the FAA v. the New York Giants, and look who’s made it from Minnesota to New Orleans.

When the schools fall down, random acts of music, Mr. Ngo’s journey, your daily dose of Twin Cities road rage, and what were you doing in the 6th grade?
Social media for good, the gun business booms, a kid named Julio,stick a fork in pro hockey, and the chemistry of a snowflake
Would you wait for a correct story; the nature of forgiveness revisited; the young sick, the old sick, and the healthy; one girl, two hockey teams; and the appealing comfort of the end of the world.
The power of silence, 26 moments that restored faith in humanity, the Sunday school Christmas, where did the farmers go, and Rubio or Peterson?
