We hope to see you at the Superior Watercross Shootout, it is going to be an amazing weekend, but in order to make this event enjoyable for everyone we ask that the following rules be respected.
News that Billy Ray Cyrus and wife Tish are divorcing traveled quickly last week (June 13). Since the soon-to-be-former couple has five kids, it goes without saying that the family is in a bit of an uproar as it deals with and processes the split. Two of the Cyrus children have spoken out (slightly) about the impending divorce.
Yesterday Travel during Grandma's Marathon weekend can be difficult with the addition of thousands of runners, spectators and tourists. Add the dimension of road construction and the word frustration comes to mind. However, if you are aware of areas of road construction, you can do your best to take an alternate route and avoid an unpleasant experience. Share this information with friends and family coming in from out of town! Here's what you need to know.
Yesterday The William A. Irvin 5K is the kick-off to the three Grandma's Marathon foot races. It is an exciting time for runners and spectators, you can feel the anticipation in the air. You can also count on clogged traffic intersections, road closures and minimal parking near the event. The Duluth Police Department has given us great information that should help to elevate stress Friday evening.
Yesterday It's Grandmas Marathon week and if you are a runner looking for extra motivation, you can enjoy another great line-up of speakers this year. All speakers will be in Duluth Friday, June 21 in Edmund Fitzgerald Hall at the Duluth Entertainment Convention Center.

Maybe the only thing more ridiculous than getting busted for having sex with an animal is getting busted for arguing so passionately that it should be legal.
There are some painters who inspire through their work, and there are others who inspire through the finished product and the process it took to get there. Richard Masters of Webster, NY is paralyzed, but still paints phenomenal portraits. A country music lover through and through, he recently honored country stars Carrie Underwood and Tim McGraw with their own paintings.
'The Lone Ranger' will be hitting theaters in a little over two weeks. Right now it doesn't feel like one of the summer's biggest tentpole films; perhaps it was waiting for some of the big superhero films to hit screens before going for the full-court ad press. But unlike its comic book competition, this film wants you to know many of its big set pieces were done practically.
The ever-hilarious Luke Bryan likes to joke around. He also likes to do a little hip-shaking. So when you put those two things together, you sometimes get hilarious interviews with the singer -- the kind that makes everyone blush.
College is not an obvious setting for a Pixar movie. For all the vaunted animation studio's reputation for producing mature, adult children's films, college lends itself to a more immature brand of adult humor -- the kind with lots of nudity, profanity, and outrageous drunken antics. Sure enough, Pixar's 'Monsters University' brings new meaning to the phrase "safe school" -- this G-rated riff on 'Revenge of the Nerds' and 'Animal House' (they probably thought about calling it 'Monster House' at some point, right?
