    S Sandberg says FB may have “gotten balance wrong” on privacy. Former Google exec explains what that means: - Google/other ad-serving co’s figure out who you are, and match that to ads you see. - FB figures out, and sells your personal info TO advertisers

    Always great when the wind speed is higher than the temp, especially in April.

    I, for one, am very glad MPR now has a union.

    MPR News has handled themselves with some pretty distinctive integrity this year. Good on each of them, and the organization for reporting on themselves.

    Welcome to the race, . You were a bad governor. Your decisions on health care, education, and infrastructure hurt Minnesotans. Speaking of a better way forward, and I are offering one.

    Quiet, the chattering class is more interested in the Sabato ratings ...

    I'm never gonna get over how he permanently made public university tuition out of reach for more Minnesotans.

    Since TPaw didn’t run after the 2007 bridge collapse, Minnesota voters can finally provide some accountability on that one.

    After 8 years of explosive growth in government with no accountability for results, Minnesotans deserve a leader who will put taxpayers first and fight to make our state a leader in the world economy. Minnesotans are Ready for Pawlenty.

    Speaking as a U of M parent, you’re good and goddamn right I want to know when students die of alcohol poisoning a U-related entities. Any student might be next. They don’t call it public interest for nothing.

    Sad story. An underage student/fraternity member dies from alcohol poisoning (with cocaine a contributing factor) after a night of partying at sorority events and then scolds for not spiking the important story

    Um, , care to explain publishing hate mail that equates Muslims with killers, torturers & “bad people in general.”

    I’m trying to imagine what it feels like to be one of the thousands of Muslims living in Minnesota reading this letter to the editor in today’s . (For anyone outside the state, Edina is a wealthy suburb of Minneapolis, not a rural outpost.)

    Bad in a modern, updated way. Does any building need that much royal blue, offset by red?

    Meanwhile, in Dinkytown, one of the city's ugliest outlets (and that's a highly competitive field), and one of the neighborhood's tackiest landmarks, is getting a facelift. Goodbye, ketchup-and-mustard mansard roof. Despite the vague sketches, what are your thoughts?
