Alvopetro Energy CEO Corey Ruttan joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company achieved January 2025 sales volumes of 2,457 boepd, including 13.8 MMcfpd of natural gas, 141 bopd from condensate, and 18 bopd of oil—a 41% increase from Q4 2024. Ruttan highlighted the role of the Murucututu field in this growth, following the successful recompletion of the 183-A3 well in Q3 2024. Alvopetro now plans to spud the 183-D4 location, targeting the Caruaçu Member approximately 110 metres up-dip from the 183-A3 site, with an additional exploratory target in the Marfin Formation. Results from the 183-D4 well are expected by the end of Q1 2025. After Murucututu, Alvopetro will drill and complete five development wells at the Caburé Unit as part of its development plan with its partner, further boosting production potential. In addition to its Brazilian operations, Ruttan shared the company's strategy to expand in Canada. Alvopetro is targeting the Mannville multi-zone heavy oil fairway, focusing on formations like Colony, McLaren, Waseca, Sparky, GP, Rex, Lloydminster, and Cummings. The company aims to leverage multilateral drilling technologies to unlock attractive economics from these resources. Alvopetro is also partnering with Durham Creek Energy, funding 100% of two earning wells at an estimated cost of $4.5 million in exchange for a 50% working interest in 19.13 sections of land in western Saskatchewan. If successful, this land position could support up to 100 development drilling locations, providing a strong foundation for future growth. #proactiveinvestors #alvopetroenergyltd #tsxv #alv #otcqx #alvof #OilAndGas #BrazilNaturalGas #EnergyInvesting #GasSales #Drilling #OilProduction #CoreyRuttan #EnergyStocks #NaturalGas #CanadianOil #BrazilEnergy #OilIndustry #Investing #EnergyExpansion #StockMarketEnergyProduction #CEOInterview #Q32024 #ProactiveInvestors #GasPlantCapacity #OrganicGrowth #EnergyStocks

I travelled down to meet with the dangerous bass mob of MN's southern region. These 3 guys bring a unique perspective due to difference in age & fishing style. Big-Fish Timmy Schroeder, the Waseca mob boss, brings a lifetime of tournament experience & success in every ring he's thrown his hat into, and wields immense power from spinnerbait to spinning pole. Along with the mob boss, who's far from an "old bull", we were also graced with the presence of the young calf, Walker Krampitz, coming off another "Gilmore Check" season. (Sky)Walker, has shown the galaxy that he's a deadly assassin poised for greatness, securing yet another Champions Tour Victory (2 Seasons, 6 regular season events, & 2 Big wins). Yet the episode wouldn't be complete without the mobs deadliest hitman, & heir to the swamp throne: Noah Schultz, who's proven he's the most dangerous angler North of the Mason-Dixon. It's not everyday you get 3 members of the mob on one show, but agreements were met and we had us a "T.I.M.E." as mob boss Timmy Shroeder would say. Huge Shoutout and Thank you to Noah & Jenna Schultz for the hospitality. Great people, geat conversations & stories...Cheers & Enjoy. Brought to you by Waypoint Angler Supply.

An officer's incredible story of spirit and recovery is recounted in a new documentary. The Weight of the Crown features former Waseca police officer Arik Matson, shot on duty four years ago, overcoming incredible obstacles to hunt one of the rarest ducks in North America.Support the show

It's been three years since Waseca police officer and father of two Arik Matson was shot while on duty. He survived, but sustained severe injuries to his brain. A new documentary follows Arik and his wife Megan Matson through the process of healing. It shows how the physical therapy was exhausting and frustrating at times, but Arik had an extra motivator. Hometown Hero Outdoors, a non-profit based in Stillwater, had promised to take him to the Bering Sea in Alaska.  Arik and Megan Matson joined MPR News host Cathy Wurzer to talk about the film and their family's journey.

Winter weather has finally arrived in Minnesota. The southwestern portion of the state is getting the brunt of a storm.

A local professor is making sure Asian Americans won't be left out of health studies. We checked in with former Waseca police officer Arik Matson four years after he was shot in the line of duty and his story is going to the big screen.

For this episode, we have two key members of the Waseca Bass Mafia. In fact, we happen to have the old bull AND the young calf. Honored to have Sergeant Big Fish Tim Schroeder (Godfather of WB Mob), a wizard/master of the Jigworm, and Century Belt holder on Lake Minnetonka, who brings an intergalactic amount of tournament success. Tim has a unique story; being in law enforcement for 26 years, being a powerful force on the bass tournament trail, being a mentor and high school fishing coach are just a few highlights. One of his apprentices joins us as well, who just won a Classic Bass Champions tour event this past season on the Alexandria Chain (at only 19 years old), beating his high school fishing coach and mentor (Tim Schroeder took 2nd that event). If you don't know by now, I'm talking about the young Walker Krampitz (SkyWalker), who has proven his abilities as an angler against the best in the Midwest. Walker is a dangerous member & the heir of the Waseca Bass Mafia. Thanks for making the trip out gentlemen. (And thank you for the new sign!) 'Twas a reeel nice time.

Queen Drea of St. Paul describes herself as a sound alchemist. She loves the innovative, community-centered performances of Ananya Dance Theatre. The theme for this fall's performance is processionals, which can both celebrate life and disrupt its flow when they take the form of protests. Ananya Dance Theater investigated its theme by performing several processionals in the Twin Cities this summer; Queen Drea had the opportunity to be involved with one during the George Floyd memorial service in May. She looks forward to seeing how that idea has developed into a staged dance show, marked by interruption, innovation and liberation.  Queen Drea appreciates that Ananya Dance Theatre's works involve a confluence of artists alongside the dancers, adding, “Every year, I go, and there's just something unexpected.” “Michhil Amra: We Are the Procession!” plays Friday and Saturday at 7:30 p.m. at The O'Shaughnessy at St. Catherine University in St. Paul.  Zoe Cinel, curator at Rochester Art Center, recently saw a striking exhibit in Winona. “Googled Earth: Through a Looking Glass” is the work of artists Patrick Lichty of Winona State University and Negin Ehtesabian, who lives in Iran. The artists, who are married, have never been able to visit each other's home countries. As they await visas, they use Google Maps and virtual reality to share their homes. This exhibit shares that experience with viewers through a combination of mixed media and virtual reality. One pair of mixed media prints by Ehtesabian, for example, hang facing each other on walls, depicting images and symbols from the U.S. and Iran, respectively. Cinel was particularly intrigued by a series of tapestries created using imagery from the geography where both artists have lived. She says the nontraditional approach to a traditional craft looks like “if glitch art had a baby with a rug.” Overall, Cinel appreciated the personal, colorful show that “speaks about borders and humans at the same time.” “Googled Earth: Through a Looking Glass” is up until Oct. 4 at the Watkins Gallery at Winona State University. David DeBlieck teaches dance in the theater department of the College of St Benedict and St John's University. He loves the work of Sod House Theater, a Twin Cities-based company whose traveling annual productions invite audiences to engage with the space around them. Their current show “Table” integrates dinner — created by local chefs from local ingredients — and a show. Directed by Sarah Agnew, whose traveling food-centered shows have included “Arla Mae's Booyah Wagon,” the show is performed by an all-female cast who also serve as wait staff for the meal. It's an interactive show served up in courses, and DeBlieck looks forward to gathering with friends at the Hallock performance Saturday to enjoy time around a table.  Related Art Hounds: Comedy on the farm and in town “Table” runs through Oct. 1 in various communities across the state, including in Crookston, Minn., Sept. 21 in Waseca, Minn., Sept. 28, and in Rochester, Minn., Oct. 1. Please note that some performances have sold out.

================================================== ==SUSCRIBETEhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNpffyr-7_zP1x1lS89ByaQ?sub_confirmation=1================================================== == DEVOCIÓN MATUTINA PARA ADOLESCENTES 2022“UN SALTO EN EL TIEMPO”Narrado por: DORIANY SÁNCHEZDesde: PERÚUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist Church 05 DE OCTUBREUN RASEO POR EL MUNDO«He peleado la buena batalla, terminó la carrera y permanecieron fiel» (2 Timoteo 4:7, NTV).El 5 de octubre de 1974, un estadounidense llamado David Kunst se convirtió en la primera persona en completar una vuelta al mundo a pie. El viaje apareció L cuatro años, desgastó veintiún pares de calzado y se rompió 23,300 kilómetros (14,500 millas) para cruzar continente cuatro. David comenzó el viaje en unión de 1970 en su ciudad natal de Waseca, Minnesota.Después de caminar desde Waseca hasta Nueva York, David sumergió su mano en el Océano Atlántico como gesto simbólico. A continuación, cruzó el Atlántico en avión hasta Lisboa, Portugal, y continuó por Europa y Asia hasta Calcuta, India. Cuando por fin llegó al Océano Índico, voló hasta Perth, en Australia Occidental, y cruzó a pie el continente hasta Sydney. Un vuelo a través del Pacífico lo llevó a Los Ángeles, California, donde comenzó la última etapa de su viaje. Volvió a pie desde California hasta Waseca, Minnesota, el lugar donde había comenzado todo.David llevó consigo un rollo de plástico para documentar la caminata. Hizo que el alcalde de cada ciudad y pueblo donde pernoctaba sellara y firmara el rollo. Al final de la caminata tenía seis hojas enrolladas, de 30 por 150 centímetros [12 por 60 pulgadas] totalmente cubiertas de sellos y firmas de funcionarios de todo el mundo. El hermano de David, John, lo acompañó en la primera mitad del viaje.Unos bandidos atacaron a los muchachos en las estribaciones de las montañas Hindu Kush de Afganistán, sin duda pensando que iban a obtener mucho dinero. David herido resultó y John murió de un disparo. Tras recuperarse con la ayuda del personal de la embajada estadounidense, David y otro hermano, Pete, partieron del lugar exacto donde habían matado a John y continuaron hacia Pakistán.Durante su recorrido por Australia, David conoció a una maestra australiana llamada Jenni. Se enamoraron, y David volvió para casarse con ella tras completar su vuelta al mundo.Al igual que David, ha sido desafiado a realizar una caminata histórica, pero esto es para Jesús, y sus efectos durarán por la eternidad. David ganó un poco de fama por su aventura, y una esposa. Cuando completes tu caminata para Jesús, tu recompensa será una corona de vida.

How many times have you held on to anger or resentment toward a friend or spouse out of stubbornness or maybe just a wounded ego? It can be hard to let go of feelings of resentment when we feel we've been wronged, but it's what we're called to do by Jesus himself: Forgive them not 7 times, but 77 times. Here to help us navigate those feelings of hurt and begin to move into forgiveness is Michelle Muff, marriage and family therapist based out of Waseca, MN.

On January 6th, 2020, Waseca, Minnesota Police Officer Arik Matson's life was changed as he was shot in the head in the line of duty.This tragic event has not only had a tremendous impact on Arik but it's also affected his wife and two children. During his recovery, he was transported to many different hospitals and eventually settled in Nebraska for the remainder of his recovery.While he's making tremendous progress and is physically healing quite well, there is one thing he is missing (aside from doing the "normal" things a husband, father, and officer enjoys), and that is being outdoors. He has missed one of his favorite pastimes, hunting specifically.Stay up to date with his hunt with us at our website. Officer Matson Hunt | Hometown Hero Outdoors

“WALKING with the Lord...”(December 20,2021)Did you know that the average pair of feet take around 7,500 a day? That means that in a lifetime, you will walk approximately 115,000 miles. The first man to walk around the world was a man by the name of David Kunst of Waseca, Minnesota. He completed his historic walk on October 5, 1974, after walking 15,000 miles. The trip required four and one-half years, during which time David went through 22 pairs of shoes. Here's a breakdown of the average steps per day associated with 10 professions, from highest to lowest:Here's a breakdown of the average steps per day associated with 10 professions, from highest to lowest: | Occupation | Average steps per day| Waiter | 22,778| Nurse | 16,390| Retail worker | 14,660| Farmer | 14,037| Stay-at-home parent | 13,813| Teacher | 12,564| Tradesperson | 11,585| Hairdresser | 9,209| Office worker | 7,570| Call center associate | 6,618 Stop your busy life for moment and think back through the years about "WALKING" with someone you loved! As a child remember holding hands with someone as you walked in the warm sunshine exploring new territory. Depending upon who you were with you were either full of confidence or nervous what was in the coming shadows. Soon you either fed off or feed the other person according to who had the most influence! I remember being with 2 or 3 other kids on my grandpa's land and feeling in charge because He had given me authority on his land! There is no uncertainty because you know where you are at and where you are going, simply you know the rules! You have authority! Well, consider today if you are a child of God, you can "WALK WITH HIM" each and every day! Let's build our faith from the Old and the New Testament: *Psalms 24:1-2 (KJV) THE EARTH IS THE LORD'S, AND THE FULNESS THEREOF; THE WORLD, AND THEY THAT DWELL THEREIN. 2 For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods. 2nd Witness:*1 Corinthians 10:26 (KJV) For the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof. But as great as that is with our good Father it only gets better, He has gifts for us: *Psalms 115:16 (KJV) The heaven, even the heavens, are the Lord's: BUT THE EARTH HATH HE GIVEN TO THE CHILDREN OF MEN. How wonderful we can "WALK" in that confidence and assurance on this earth that our Father has gave to us just like I did my grandpa's as a child but even to a greater degree! Let's look at the beginning how even after sin entered the world that a man "WALKED" with God leaving a living testimony" *Genesis 5:21-24 (KJV) And Enoch lived sixty and five years, and begat Methuselah: 22 And Enoch “WALKED” with God after he begat Methuselah three hundred years, and begat sons and daughters: 23 And all the days of Enoch were three hundred sixty and five years: 24 And "ENOCH WALKED WITH GOD": and he was not; for God took him. Now if Enoch could "WALKED WITH GOD" in all that evil of the day that brought on the flood in Noah's time how much more can we today in the dispensation of GRACE. This is an amazing statement. This verse tells us that Enoch did not taste death. God just took him. In other words, he didn't even die, he was just translated to heaven with God. So, who is the oldest man who is still alive? It is Enoch. He still hasn't died.  If you trace history back to Adam, that is approximately 6000 years. Enoch was born when Adam was 622 years old. That makes Enoch approximately 5400 years Understand Enoch's "WALK WITH GOD" was a testimony that survives even till now: 

This is Vaccine 411, the latest coronavirus vaccine information for December 14th, 2021. US health officials say Omicron does appear able to evade some of the immune protection of antibodies induced by vaccines but…preliminary data shows a booster raises protection high enough that it does well against the variant. Almost 80% of confirmed Omicron cases in the US are fully vaccinated. But about a third also had a booster. Omicron is now in 30 states. The masks are back on in California. A rule has returned requiring people to wear masks indoors starting Wednesday through at least January 15. The per capita rate of new cases in California has jumped 47% in two weeks. As in the past, the state was unclear how the mandate would be enforced. Turns out they weren't kidding. The Air Force discharged 27 people for refusing to get the vaccine, making them the first service members to be removed for disobeying the mandate. November 2 was the deadline, and more than 1,000 airmen have refused the shot, and more than 4,700 are seeking a religious exemption. The Supreme Court, and once you go there, there's nowhere else to go, declined to block New York's vaccine mandate for health care workers, which does not allow for religious exemptions. Some health care workers sued the state saying the mandate violated their religious freedoms, but the highest court effectively said there are no religious freedoms in this matter. A new AP poll shows Americans are worried about the Omicron variant, but not worried enough to do much about it. In fact, fewer say they're regularly wearing masks or isolating compared to the first of the year. 36% are very or extremely worried they or a family member will be infected, that's up from 25% in late October. 55% of those who are unvaccinated say they have little or no worry. In the United States cases were up 49%, deaths are up 40%, and hospitalizations are up 22% over 14 days. The 7-day average of new cases has been trending up since November 29. The five states that had the most daily deaths per 100,000 are Michigan, Wyoming, Kentucky, West Virginia, and Arizona. There are once again over 10 million active cases in the United States, at 10,044,267. The five states with the greatest increase in hospitalizations per capita: Connecticut 77%, New Jersey 64%, Delaware and Washington DC 61%, and North Carolina 59%. The top 10 counties with the highest number of recent cases per capita according to The New York Times: Allen, KS. Seward, KS. Waseca, MN. Edgar, IL. Piatt, IL. Pike, IL. Jefferson, IN. Clay, IL. Vermilion, IL. And Fulton, PA. There have been at least 798,710 deaths in the U.S. recorded as Covid-related. The top 3 vaccinating states by percentage of population that's been fully vaccinated: Vermont at 75.2%, Rhode Island at 74.8%, and Maine unchanged at 74.1%. The bottom 3 vaccinating states are Idaho unchanged at 45.7%, Wyoming unchanged at 46.4%, and Alabama at 46.9%. The percentage of the U.S. that's been fully vaccinated is 60.8%. Globally, cases were up 6% and deaths down 2% over 14 days, with the 7-day average trending up since October 15. There are 22,083,874 active cases around the world. The five countries with the most new cases: The United States 95,343. The U.K. 54,661. Russia 29,558. Germany 28,804. And Turkey 18,796. There have been at least 5,311,574 deaths reported as Covid-related worldwide.

US health officials say Omicron does appear able to evade some of the immune protection of antibodies induced by vaccines but…preliminary data shows a booster raises protection high enough that it does well against the variant. Almost 80% of confirmed Omicron cases in the US are fully vaccinated. But about a third also had a booster. Omicron is now in 30 states. The masks are back on in California. A rule has returned requiring people to wear masks indoors starting Wednesday through at least January 15. The per capita rate of new cases in California has jumped 47% in two weeks. As in the past, the state was unclear how the mandate would be enforced. Turns out they weren't kidding. The Air Force discharged 27 people for refusing to get the vaccine, making them the first service members to be removed for disobeying the mandate. November 2 was the deadline, and more than 1,000 airmen have refused the shot, and more than 4,700 are seeking a religious exemption. The Supreme Court, and once you go there, there's nowhere else to go, declined to block New York's vaccine mandate for health care workers, which does not allow for religious exemptions. Some health care workers sued the state saying the mandate violated their religious freedoms, but the highest court effectively said there are no religious freedoms in this matter. A new AP poll shows Americans are worried about the Omicron variant, but not worried enough to do much about it. In fact, fewer say they're regularly wearing masks or isolating compared to the first of the year. 36% are very or extremely worried they or a family member will be infected, that's up from 25% in late October. 55% of those who are unvaccinated say they have little or no worry. In the United States cases were up 49%, deaths are up 40%, and hospitalizations are up 22% over 14 days. The 7-day average of new cases has been trending up since November 29. The five states that had the most daily deaths per 100,000 are Michigan, Wyoming, Kentucky, West Virginia, and Arizona. There are once again over 10 million active cases in the United States, at 10,044,267. The five states with the greatest increase in hospitalizations per capita: Connecticut 77%, New Jersey 64%, Delaware and Washington DC 61%, and North Carolina 59%. The top 10 counties with the highest number of recent cases per capita according to The New York Times: Allen, KS. Seward, KS. Waseca, MN. Edgar, IL. Piatt, IL. Pike, IL. Jefferson, IN. Clay, IL. Vermilion, IL. And Fulton, PA. There have been at least 798,710 deaths in the U.S. recorded as Covid-related. The top 3 vaccinating states by percentage of population that's been fully vaccinated: Vermont at 75.2%, Rhode Island at 74.8%, and Maine unchanged at 74.1%. The bottom 3 vaccinating states are Idaho unchanged at 45.7%, Wyoming unchanged at 46.4%, and Alabama at 46.9%. The percentage of the U.S. that's been fully vaccinated is 60.8%. Globally, cases were up 6% and deaths down 2% over 14 days, with the 7-day average trending up since October 15. There are 22,083,874 active cases around the world. The five countries with the most new cases: The United States 95,343. The U.K. 54,661. Russia 29,558. Germany 28,804. And Turkey 18,796. There have been at least 5,311,574 deaths reported as Covid-related worldwide.

This is Coronavirus 411, the latest on Omicron and other COVID variants and new hotspots for December 8th, 2021. The World Health Organization's office for Europe said kids 5 to 14 now account for the highest infection rates in the region. Overall cases and deaths have more than doubled in the last two months in the 53-country region, and the Omicron variant has been seen in 21 of those 53 countries. Early data out of South Africa suggests the Pfizer vaccine appears to be less effective against Omicron. Researchers found there was about a fortyfold reduction in vaccine-induced antibodies that could neutralize the new variant. That means Omicron seems more skilled at evading the antibodies generated by Pfizer than the beta variant, which only saw a threefold reduction. More home COVID testing is good right? The US administration is even talking about reimbursing home test kit purchases. But is it? Some health officials are pointing out that tests taken at home, regardless of whether they're positive or negative, never get reported and that is going to make tracking COVID data, which was already a challenge, even harder. Speaking of testing, the FDA says the Omicron variant may be more successful at evading tests for it. There are three kinds of tests, serology or blood antibodies, antigen, and PCR. If there are enough mutations in a variant, Omicron has 32 of them, that could generate more false negatives. Here's the latest thing people are saying can help with COVID, seaweed. Well, actually sea lettuce. Lab experiments show an extract of this algae could be beneficial in the pandemic fight. Other studies of other edible seaweed have shown promise but this one has been tested specifically as an antiviral treatment against certain viruses. Scientists say more seaweed tests are needed to be sure. In the United States cases were up 28%, deaths are up 13%, and hospitalizations are up 18% over 14 days. The 7-day average of new cases has been trending up since November 29. The five states that had the most daily deaths per 100,000 are Wyoming, Montana, West Virginia, Michigan, and Kentucky. There are 9,715,064 active cases in the United States. The five states with the greatest increase in hospitalizations per capita: Delaware 62%, Connecticut 60%, Rhode Island 53%, and Indiana and Massachusetts 49%.

Rush, IN. Neosho, KS. And Valencia, NM. There have been at least 791,514 deaths in the U.S. recorded as Covid-related. The top 3 vaccinating states by percentage of population that's been fully vaccinated: Vermont at 74%, Rhode Island at 73.7%, and Maine unchanged at 72.9%. The bottom 3 vaccinating states are Wyoming unchanged at 46%, Alabama unchanged at 46.5%, and Mississippi unchanged at 47.1%. The percentage of the U.S. that's been fully vaccinated is 60%. Globally, cases were up 10% and deaths were flat over 14 days, with the 7-day average trending up since October 15. There are 21,338,368 active cases around the world. The five countries with the most new cases: The United States 107,642. France 59,019. Germany 51,512. The U.K. 45,691. And Russia 31,096.

This is Vaccine 411, the latest coronavirus vaccine information for December 7th, 2021. The Mayor of New York City announced that all private employers, big and small, must now require their workers to get vaccinated, the most sweeping mandate of any big city or state in the U.S. And you must get the injection, there is no testing alternative. That will add about 184,000 businesses, including mom and pops, to those placed under previous mandates, The European Union's drugs agency recommended approval of an anti-inflammatory medicine to treat adults hospitalized with severe COVID. Now it has to be confirmed by the EU executive commission. The drug is RoActemra from Roche, currently used to treat arthritis. It works by tamping down the protein interleukin-6, often found in excess in COVID patients. In Spain, Christmas festivities at one hospital are suspected of infecting dozens of hospital staff. 170 people attended the Christmas dinner in a restaurant last weekend. And afterwards, 68 staff, including ICU nurses and doctors, tested positive. All took antigen tests before the event and were negative, and all of the infected staff were fully vaccinated. As always, there's not nearly as much of a war on COVID going on as there is a war on travel. The CDC has put five places in Europe on its list of "very high" travel risk destinations, including one of the very biggest for tourism, France. Also included on the list were Cyprus, Liechtenstein, and Portugal. So will New Yorkers be mad about these new business vaccine mandates? Not if this Morning Consult poll is to be believed. It shows broad approval by Americans for strict measures to control COVID, as long it doesn't cause businesses and services to shut down. The most commonly supported measures are better ventilation and enforcing social distancing. But masking and vaccine mandates also get the support of a comfortable majority, as in almost 70%. In the United States cases were up 19%, deaths are up 5%, and hospitalizations are up 18% over 14 days. The 7-day average of new cases has been trending up since November 29.

This is Vaccine 411, the latest coronavirus vaccine information for December 6th, 2021.At least 12 U.S. states have now identified Omicron cases, but US health officials remain more concerned about Delta. It's accounting for 99.9% of all new infections and those infections are going up. Results from studies to gauge the severity and transmissibility of Omicron are expected in a few weeks. Cases of Omicron remain mild but that is not true of Delta. In Brussels, Belgium, police turned water cannons and tear gas on protesters against the tightening of COVID restrictions that aim to counter a surge of coronavirus infections. Thousands participated after the government tightened rules for the third week in a row. But an avalanche of new cases has strained the country's health services.The company's President says Moderna could have a vaccine booster shot that targets the Omicron variant ready for authorization by March. Although the drumbeat of messaging has been that the existing vaccines protect fine against Omicron, he told the Financial Times he thinks the existing vaccines will be less effective against it than they've been against Delta and they've already started work on a new booster.A new analysis in The American Journal of Cardiology has revealed a possible link between the vaccines and elevated risk of Myopericarditis, an inflammation of the heart muscle. The CDC had almost 2,000 reports of the condition just in 2021 in people who got the vaccine. This is mostly happening in men 25 to 44, but most cases with clinical symptoms seem to resolve within six days.Speaking of men and COVID, a study out of Colorado State suggests men spread coronavirus particles more frequently than women or children. The study was originally to see how the performing arts could safely return to the stage. After doing things like making subjects sing “Happy Birthday” over and over, they learned singing spreads more virus than instruments, adults emit more particles than kids, people who talk loud emit more virus, and men emit more than women, theoretically because they have bigger lungs. In the United States cases were up 19%, deaths are up 5%, and hospitalizations are up 18% over 14 days. The 7-day average of new cases has been trending up since November 29. The five states that had the most daily deaths per 100,000 are Wyoming, Montana, Kentucky, Michigan, and West Virginia.

Synopsis Today we celebrate the birthday of Leroy Bernard Shield, an American composer whose name might not ring a bell, but whose music you might instantly recognize – and with a smile. Shield's name rarely appeared on the credits for the classic “Our Gang” and “Laurel & Hardy” comedies from the 1930s, but his music was used in most of them. Leroy Shield was born in Waseca, Minnesota, on today's date in 1893. At five he was already an accomplished pianist and organist, and by 15 a professional arranger, composer, and concert pianist. In 1923, he joined the staff of the Victor Talking Machine Company, supervising their East Coast recording sessions. Then in 1930, he was appointed Victor's "Musical Director in charge of Hollywood, California, Activities," and it was in this capacity that he wrote and oversaw the recording of music for the famous comedies produced by the Hal Roach Studios. In 1945, Shield moved back to New York and became the orchestral contractor for the NBC radio network and worked closely with the famous conductor Arturo Toscanini and his NBC Symphony.  Leroy Shield retired in 1955, moved to Florida, and died in Fort Lauderdale in 1962. Music Played in Today's Program Leroy Shield (1893 – 1962) — Good Old Days and Hide and Go Seek (Beau Hunks Orchestra) Koch 8702

Updated: 3:33 p.m. Theater lover Katie Fetterly of St. Paul calls “Arla Mae's Booyah Wagon,” a traveling musical comedy celebrating the joy of local food, “adorable” and “hilarious.” Booyah is a hearty stew —and a specialty of Arla Mae's traveling food wagon. The show is performed at different local farms, and most performances feature a booyah tasting. Sarah Agnew directed and performs in the show, and she also created the booyah recipe with culinary advice from James Beard award-winning chef Ann Kim of Young Joni and other restaurants in Minneapolis.  “Arla Mae” travels to Ferndale Market in Cannon Falls at 6 p.m Thursday and to Pleasant Grove Pizza Farm in Waseca on Friday. The production moves to Dream Acres Farm in Spring Valley on Saturday and Big Raven Farm in Spring Grove Sunday. The following week performances are scheduled in Oronoco, Red Wing and Northfield. Musician Mischa Suemnig of Plymouth is excited for a quadruple album release concert by four Minnesota musicians Saturday. Justin Bell and the Lazy Susan Band, the Jonathan Earl band, Sarah VanValkenburg and Samuel J. DuBois all have albums coming out. Suemnig wants to hear new music performed live and “the pent-up anxiety and energy we all have from COVID directed in a positive way” by musicians he admires. The show is Saturday at the Amsterdam Bar and Hall in St. Paul. The venue requires proof of vaccination or a negative COVID test from within 72 hours. Comedian Emma Dahlenberg felt like she'd stumbled upon a real gem when she performed at the Club Underground of the Spring Street Tavern in Minneapolis a few months ago. She loves the lighting, the feeling of intimacy with the audience in the low ceiling space. The venue runs a regular Monday Night Comedy Show starting at 7 p.m. In October, each comedy night will have a theme for the comedians to follow, starting Oct. 4 with “alien abduction night.” Upcoming themes include super villains and character night, as well as one night each of “clean” and “dirty” humor. “I think it would be really fun as an audience member,” says Dahlenberg, “because you're seeing the comedians have fun in a way that they don't normally do,” as they try out new material to fit each theme. Correction (Sept. 30, 2021): An earlier version of this story misstated Ann Kim's role in the production "Arla Mae's Booyah Wagon.” The article has been updated.

Isaac Trotter breaks down what the Section 1 playoffs will look like. In 9-man football (0:33), Grand Meadow looks like the No. 1 seed, but Lanesboro, Southland, Houston and LeRoy-Ostrander all have the talent to compete. In Section 1A (4:57), it looks like Blooming Prairie's to lose, but Randolph is having a resurgent season. But could COVID affect the Awesome Blossoms' chances? Caledonia owns Section 1AA (7:26), but Chatfield, Triton and Kenyon-Wanamingo are all 3-1 right now. Section 1AAA (8:59) could be the most competitive. Lourdes, Pine Island, Stewartville, Waseca and Plainview-Elgin-Millville are all dangerous. Two Byron/Kasson-Mantorville showdowns could be in the mix. Are they the best two teams in Section 1AAAA (13:33)? In Section 1AAAAA (15:15), Mayo, JM and Century are all trying to muscle up and knock off Owatonna.

Michelle chats with Whitney Kimball Coe, director of National Programs at the Center for Rural Strategies and the leader of the Rural Assembly, about the upcoming Rural Assembly Everywhere Festival, and with three presenters at this landmark event including, Kathleen Sebelius, former HHS Secretary, Benya Kraus, co-founder of Lead for America and Executive Director of Lead for Minnesota, and Norma Flores Lopez, chair of the Child Labor Coalition’s Domestic Issues Committee and an activist with Justice for Migrant Women.   Rural Assembly Everywhere is a free, five-day (October 26-30) streaming virtual conference/festival, where you can tune in at any time to find out what’s happening in this critical time in rural America, Coe explains. The festival includes “main stage” keynotes from various authors and thought leaders, including Sarah Smarsh, author of Heartland: A Memoir of Working Hard and Being Broke in the Richest Country on Earth, Dr. Richard Besser of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. Rural Everywhere will cover vital issues and headlines from The Daily Yonder, such as the rural vote in the 2020 elections, and racial justice in rural America. Breakout sessions will focus on more specific issues, including climate change, resiliency, and developing the next generation of rural leaders. Also, Coe notes, there will be a happy hour every day, at which attendees can network with other attendees. To register for this can’t miss virtual festival, visit ruralassembly.org. The major rural health issues today, according to Sebelius, include access to providers and hospitals; the promise of telemedicine to provide that access in, for example, specialty care and mental health; how resiliency in rural America can attract new providers and residents; and access to fast broadband, especially in education and health. Kraus, who will be facilitating a conversation with author Sarah Smarsh at the Everywhere event, discusses her rural outreach efforts in Minnesota, her relationship with immigrant and other entrepreneurs in Waseca, and the inspiring experience of “working your way back home.” At Lead for America, she explains, potential rural contributors can be matched with rural communities to earn two-year fellowships to enable them to bring best practices back to their hometowns. The Justice for Migrant Women, Lopez says, protects and advances rural and migrant women’s rights through education, public awareness, and advocacy. Rural America is not all white, as some politicians believe, but is actually diverse, and her organization tries to make sure that rural women are truly heard. In this election year, that means getting out the vote, she notes. Migrant farmworkers are essential works, she adds, and while they are starting to get more recognition, that doesn’t mean they’re getting needed workplace protections, such as overtime pay and the right to organize.

This is Coronavirus 411, the latest COVID-19 info and new hotspots… Just the facts… for September 28th, 2020. More than 1,000 New Yorkers tested positive for COVID-19 in a single day. That’s the first time since June 5 the state has seen a daily number that high. An aide to Governor Andrew Cuomo stressed the new positive-case number came out of nearly 100,000 tests, compared to about 60,000 tests a day in June.A COVID-19 vaccine was approved for emergency use in China. And it’s been given to hundreds of thousands before final regulatory approval for general use. Chinese companies gave the vaccine to top executives and leading researchers first, then injected a far greater number that appears ready to rise.When the pandemic first started, most experts were worried Africa would be hit especially hard. Nine months in, most African countries have actually done significantly better than other parts of the world. The reason, at least right now, is a mystery. France’s health minister said hospitals in Paris and Marseille are putting off elective surgeries to make room for COVID patients. Health authorities reported 14,000 new infections Saturday. France has reported the third-highest death toll in Europe after Britain and Italy.The former superintendent and medical director of the Soldiers' Home in Holyoke, Massachusetts have been indicted on criminal neglect charges. They allegedly combined 42 veterans – some positive, some not – into one unit. Six or seven veterans were put into rooms meant for four. And beds were put close together in a dining room. Patients were also allowed to mingle. The top 10 counties with the highest number of recent cases per capita according to The New York Times: Woodward, OK. Anderson, TX. Roosevelt, MT. Edwards, TX. Logan, ND. Concho, TX. Frio, TX. Lavaca, TX. Waseca, MN. And Emmons, ND. There are 2,551,434 active cases in the United States. The current Top 10 states by number of active cases: Florida, California, Georgia, Arizona, Virginia, Maryland, Missouri, Alabama, Texas, and Illinois. The five states with the most daily new cases per capita over 7 days are North Dakota, South Dakota, Wisconsin, Utah, and Oklahoma.The retransmission rate is currently highest in Wyoming, North Carolina, Massachusetts, Montana, and Idaho. While the lowest retransmission is found in Georgia, Virginia, South Carolina, Hawaii, and Ohio.There’ve been a total 204,750 deaths in the US reported as COVID-related, with a current national fatality rate of 2.93%.The states with the most new deaths reported as COVID-related: Texas 35. Georgia 32. Arkansas 23. California and Louisiana 21. Virginia 15. Illinois and Massachusetts 13. Ohio 11. And Florida and Maryland 10.

Marie IntroThis week on the Minnesota Native News Health Report, another special session of the legislature, bars and restaurants face scrutiny, and students return to campus with mixed results. I'm Marie Rock.Marie #1 OverviewState public health officials have not wavered from their safety message of last spring: Masks and social distancing work. Tests, contact tracing and protecting others if you may have the virus – all those things are necessary to stop the spread of Covid 19. But not everyone is listening, and Minnesota topped 80 thousand known cases this week. Laurie Stern reports that – among other things, public health experts have started trying to enforce orders the state has in place:Laurie: The department of health has received more than 800 complaints about Covid-related safety violations at bars and restaurants. The complaints have come from the public, customers and employees concerned about spreading the virus. Based on those complaints and data showing where outbreaks are the most worrisome, officials conducted compliance checks over the last weekend in August and the first weekend in September. They visited 167 establishments and found almost half with one or more violations. This is Dan Huff, Assistant Commissioner at the Department of Health.Those issues ranged from customers and workers not wearing masks where required, failure to maintain social distancing or a lack of Covid 19 preparedness plans and worker training.Huff emphasized that the visits were not punitive. He said everyone has a stake in bars and restaurants operating safely – the industry, the workers , the customers and, of course, the communities. The checks were conducted in Scott and Carver counties, and the cities of New Ulm. St. Peter, Waseca, Faribault and Mankato.The Department of Health worked with inspectors from the Departments of Public Safety, Agriculture and Labor and Industry. This is Nicole Blissenbach, Assistant Commissioner with the Department of Labor and Industry.One thing to note is while business are doing a good job, customers are not always complying.We know that Covid-19 can spread easily in bars and restaurants because of loud talking, lack of mask-wearing, being in close proximity for long periods of time and lots of high touch areas.Officials said data backs up these concerns. They traced 68 case clusters to 66 bars. And they say the recent inspections offer only a glimpse of the extent of the problem. The average age of Covid patients is 35 – continuing a downward trend in who is getting sick and testing positive. Of course many colleges resume classes this week and next. Health officials say they are offering guidance to each institution individually although they also said transmission seems to be occurring in social settings rather than classrooms. Finally, the governor announced he is extending Minnesota's peacetime emergency another 30 days, so the legislature convenes Friday for it's 4th special session. For MNNHR I'm LS.Marie #2:And now it's time to hear from our Leech Lake/North Minneapolis correspondent Jennifer Cortes, who just started her junior year at FAIR, a public fine arts high school in downtown Minneapolis.Jen tape

By Davy Crockett  This is the second part of the Dave Kunst story. Read/Listen/Watch to Part 1 here. Dave Kunst, originally from Minnesota, now from California, claims that he was “the first person verified to have completed circling the entire land mass of the earth on foot.” Kunst's 1970-74 walk has historic importance for the modern-era of ultra-distance walking. I believe that Konstantin Rengarten was actually the first in 1894-1898 (See Part 3). I will show that Kunts' "verified" claim is dubious, but his amazing walk did happen and the story is fascinating and exciting. But at what cost to those who believed in him? With the end just days away, everything seemly fell apart. In 1970, Dave Kunst of Waseca, Minnesota, started a walk around the world with his brother John. Part 1 of this story covered their travels east to New York, by plane to Portugal, and then on foot with a mule to Afghanistan where John was shot and killed by bandits. Dave was wounded and returned to Minnesota to recover in November 1972. Dave felt strongly that the walk should be continued and he deeply wanted to get back on the road to experience an exciting and free life, without family, job, or financial obligations. He said, “The walk will definitely go on. I want to keep the ball rolling. I will be back to finish what my brother and I started so he will not have died for nothing.” Plans to resume the walk Pete and Dave In January 1973, only three months since he had been shot in the chest, Dave Kunst announced that he would resume his walk in March 1973 with his brother Pete. They would travel back to Afghanistan and resume the walk from the mountain pass where their brother John was killed. Dave said, “Pete’s wife was reluctant before, but now she is in favor of it.”  Pete said, “It’s too important to all of us to abandon this idea now. My wife understands this, especially since John gave his life for it. We have to finish the job.” Dave’s wife, Jan, was not as sure. She had mixed emotions about him again leaving her alone to raise their young children. She said, “ I knew he really wanted to do it. I told him if he had to go, to go and get it over with before the kids are teenagers. I’m scared for him to go back there, but it doesn’t seem to bother him.” His reply to her worries appeared to be rather harsh. “Well that’s a typical reaction of a lot of people. That’s really the difference in individuals. Adventurers don’t think of things like that. Columbus – if he’d thought of that, he wouldn’t have discovered America. Definitely, she’s right, but if I sat here and thought about that. I’d be miserable as hell here.” Dave's brother, Pete Kunst, 28, of Santa Ana, California, was a former marine who served in the Vietnam war.  He was a stock clerk at Data Technology Corp. He was married to Nancy with four children. He didn’t originally join his two brothers because his wife was expecting in 1970. Dave said, “We kind of decided, the three of us, that if one of us dropped out, Pete was going to finish.” Pete said, “I knew one way or another, I was going to go.”  Pete had joined Dave and John on the walk in 1970 for three days when they were in Pennsylvania, but now he was going to join full-time. They estimated that to complete the walk, it would take them at least another year. Pete took out a $2,000 loan to help Nancy support the family while he was gone and she also worked as a secretary. Friends helped to raise money for their air fare back to Afghanistan. The two made preparations both in California and in Minnesota to drum up support. they met with Hubert Humphrey before they left, again collecting a letter of introduction and securing his support. They involved UNICEF as part of their walk. UNICEF did not endorse their effort, but was happy to receive any donations they brought in. For the first two and a half years of the walk, the only verified donation amount was just $3,000.

Tragedy strikes in Waseca, Minnesota leaving one officer in critical but stable condition. We then transition into the some lighter topics with more comedic endings. We'd like to thank everyone for supporting Officer Matson, his family, and the Waseca Police Department!

By Davy Crockett  Who was the first person to truly walk around the world? If your search the Internet the answer that come back is: Dave Kunst, an American who claimed to do it in 1970-1974.  Dave Kunst, originally from Minnesota, claims that he is “the first person verified to have completed circling the entire land mass of the earth.” The previous parts of this series have hopefully taught the reader to be very skeptical of such claims. Is his claim true? Did he really walk around the entire world in 1970-1974? Was he the first? Was it truly independently verified, and how? Well, with any such bold claims there are problems with it, even if Guinness was at some point convinced to include it in their record book. The Kunst tale must be told and it will be covered in two parts. He was not the first to walk around the world. Konstantin Rengarten of Belarus and Latvia was the first in 1894-1898. (See Part 3). But I believe Kunst was the first to walk around the "world" in the modern, post-war era. His walk had the usual route and verification issues as other globetrotters before him. Kunst published a 1979 book about his walk, that is difficult to read. I will tell the tale primarily from the hundreds of newspaper articles published between 1970-1974, and I chose to not use addition tales from his book that were not mentioned in the newspapers. Dave Kunst’s walk inspired and entertained hundreds of thousands of people who witnessed it, read about it in the newspapers, and heard about it on television and radio. But sadly, the walk left within its wake, tragedy, death, heartbreak, deception, and betrayal. Thousands around the world thought the purpose of the Kunst walk was to support a humanitarian cause and they freely financially supported him. But actually, the walk was motivated by a man with a huge ego and with selfish intentions. The truth eventually came out and it surprised and disappointed many people with a shocking ending. Nevertheless, the walk happened, and in the decades that followed, Kunst would inspire thousands of youngsters to dare to fulfill their dreams. Before the walk Kunst family in 1940 census David William Kunst was born on July 16, 1939 at Caledonia, Minnesota where he was raised. His parents were Aloysious “Al” Kunst (1919-2010), a salesman, and Augusta Onstad Kunst (1921-2007). The family was longtime Minnesota residents. Dave’s grandfather, Frank Kunst, immigrated from Germany and was a harness maker. Dave’s mother’s family, the Onstads, immigrated from Norway. In his early years, Dave’s family lived with his Kunst grandparents in Caledonia. While Dave was young, his father Al served in the U.S. Army during World War II and was deployed to the Philippines. On his return he managed lumberyards and then became a salesman. Dave's father, Al Kunst Dave was raised in the Catholic faith and attended a private Catholic school which certainly exposed him to a greater level of rules from authority figures that influenced his later attitudes. He also participated in the scouting organization. He had two younger brothers, Pete and John. Dave said, “My mom had an adventurous spirit, and she instilled that in me during my Caledonia years.” His mom would at time drop him off to go hunting for three days in the woods. At times on those trips he wouldn't hunt but would cover 20-30 miles exploring. He would always come back in a good mood. Jan Wabner Kunst In 1959, Dave married young, at age 19, to Janice “Jan” Wabner, who became a very important figure in the walk story. In her senior yearbook it was written of her, “She can live without poetry, music or walking, but she can’t live without talking.” She was active is Chorus and Drama. Dave went to work for the local county and eventually led a team of surveyors that worked on the highways. In the 1960s the Kunsts had three children, Daniel, Debra, and Brad. In 1970, the Kunst family lived in Waseca, Minnesota.

A couple of years ago, I released a "mini-episode" on Most Notorious, which included a story of the murder of members of the Schuch family in Waseca in 1929. A few weeks ago, I was contacted by Jen Barr, granddaughter of one of the girls, Wilhemenia, who discovered the bodies of her family almost 90 years ago. We revisit the story, and I talk to Jen about her own investigation into the long-ago murders on this episode of Minnesota's Most Notorious: Where Blood Runs Cold.  Learn more about your ad choices.
