Even with Karl-Anthony Towns back, Naz Reid’s minutes aren’t going anywhere

It was only fair to wonder if Karl-Anthony Towns’ return from a calf strain that had sidelined him since late November would lead to a diminishing, or even full-on extinction of Naz Reid’s minutes.Between Rudy Gobert and Towns, there simply aren’t available minutes at the center spot. Towns starts at the power forward spot, a position where Kyle Anderson has also excelled.But Reid never pondered the thought of not playing much ahead of Wednesday’s contest against Atlanta.“Even if it was (the case), it is what it is,” he said. “I’ve got to keep fighting to get in my position and do what I do. I’m not really tripping.”There is currently no reason to. Not only did Reid play Wednesday, he tallied 26 points on 11-for-15 in 26 minutes, playing a critical role in Minnesota’s 125-124 victory.“Naz was spectacular. He really was. He played offensively like he didn’t try to change how he played. I think that was key,” Timberwolves coach Chris Finch said. “Defensively, he was really good. He go...CHS Field announces new foods for 2023 season

After touring a preview of the new “Immersive Disney Animation” exhibit Wednesday, it struck me that it’s a slam dunk – for certain audiences, anyway.A collaboration between Walt Disney Animation Studios and Lighthouse Immersive – the company behind “Immersive Van Gogh” and “The Art of Banksy” – “Immersive Disney Animation” opened Thursday at Lighthouse ArtSpace in Minneapolis. The main attraction is a 45-minute film montage assembled from Disney’s extensive animated catalog and projected in a 360-degree immersive environment.The first part of the show is a somewhat straightforward exhibit focused on both the old-school, hand-drawn animation that put Disney on the map and the computer technology that has taken over the craft. Indeed, the first thing visitors encounter is an animator’s desk with both an analogue character sketch and two computer monitors.“Immersive Disney Animation” visitors are greeted with a replication of an old-school animator’...Trial opens in child sex trafficking trial of Republican political operative Tony Lazzaro

A young woman told a federal jury in Minneapolis on Wednesday that she had just turned 15 in mid-2020 when she first met Anton “Tony” Lazzaro.The teen said she didn’t fit in at her exurban high school, though she met regularly with a group of friends from another school. She also said that Gisela Castro Medina, now 21, had befriended her on Instagram and Snapchat.The woman, now 18 and identified in court documents as “Victim C,” testified that Castro Medina urged her to meet “a rich friend” who liked to “have fun,” and that in early August 2020, Lazzaro, now 32, sent an Uber driver to take her and three other girls, then ages 14 and 15, from a slumber party to his luxury apartment at the Hotel Ivy in downtown Minneapolis.Attorneys and U.S. District Judge Patrick Schiltz addressed the alleged victim by her first name in court, but Minnesota Public Radio News is not naming her to protect her privacy.Anton LazzaroThe teen testified that she did not have sex with Lazzaro during that ini...Wisconsin high court candidate welcomes campaign ally despite presence at U.S. Capitol insurrection

MADISON, Wis. — The Republican-backed candidate for Wisconsin Supreme Court said Thursday that he had no problem with someone who was on the U.S. Capitol grounds during the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection campaigning for him across the state in the waning days of the high stakes race, calling his work “invaluable.”Dan Kelly on Wednesday posted a video on Twitter of himself standing side-by-side with conservative activist Scott Presler and thanking him for his work. Presler, a Virginia native, planned several “stop the steal” rallies in addition to being on the Capitol grounds the day of the insurrection. Presler also described the siege on the Capitol as “the largest civil rights protest in American history.”When asked Thursday about Presler’s attendance at the insurrection, Kelly said he was “not really familiar with his background.”“But what I can say, I appreciate a great deal the work that he’s doing here in Wisconsin,” Kelly said. “I think it is invaluable.”Majority cont...Minnesota pollution control, health officials press need for legislation on ‘forever chemicals’ cleanup

Minnesota pollution and health officials made the case at the state Capitol on Thursday for legislation to restrict nonessential uses of “forever chemicals” known as PFAS, and for the $45.6 million that Gov. Tim Walz has requested in his budget to prevent, manage and clean up the ubiquitous compounds.State agencies launched a drive two years ago to protect communities from PFAS, which don’t break down in the environment but accumulate in human bodies. They’ve already tested water supplies for 98% of the state’s population, pioneered new cleanup technologies and started statewide monitoring.“PFAS is an urgent public health and environmental issue facing Minnesota and the nation,” Katrina Kessler, commissioner of the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, said at a briefing for reporters.PFAS, or per- and polyfluorinated substances, are widespread and expensive to remove from water. They’ve been linked to a broad range of health problems, including low birthweight...Capital Region concert roundup: March 24-30

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) — Missouri youths no longer could receive gender-affirming treatments under a bill passed Thursday by the state Senate.The bill, which now heads to the GOP-led House for consideration, would prohibit doctors from providing puberty blockers, hormones and surgeries to minors for the next four years. Minors already receiving treatment and intersex youths would be exempt from the ban.The bill also would ban the federal low-income health care program Medicaid from paying for gender-affirming treatments for adults and prohibit gender-affirming surgeries for Missouri prisoners and inmates.“Children need love, compassion and counseling, not a doctor’s prescription to cut off their breasts or genitals," Sen. Denny Hoskins said before he joined 23 other Republicans in voting for the measure. Eight Democrats voted against it.Under clinical guidelines, children diagnosed with gender dysphoria and who receive counseling and guidance about transgender medical tr...Maryland Heights juveniles reported missing
