website will be up soon but if interested in staying on top of what is coming up at the new twin cinema, become a fan of the zinema 2 facepage.
I don’t know if this has been addressed here before because I just discovered the site. I’ve heard the urban legend about a tunnel under Park Point that was used during prohibition to smuggle Canadian spirits into the Twin Ports, avoiding the usual protocol involved in bringing them in through the Superior or Duluth entries. Does anyone know if there is any truth to this?

Israel: Democracy for Whom?
Featuring Dr. Smadar Lavie, Hubert H. Humphrey Professor on Islam and the Middle East, Macalester College
How do the majority of Israel’s own Jewish citizens fare under its regime, and can the struggles of oppressed Jewish minorities be linked to those of the Palestinians? Can Jews and Arabs coexist peacefully in a single, democratic state? An ethnic Misrahi Jew and citizen of Israel, Dr. Lavie has faced repression as a result of speaking out for Mizrahi and Arab rights and for a peaceful, one-state solution for Palestine.

I have developed a slight Mountain Dew Throwback problem — a love for a soda that I grew up on, with NO HFCs. I avoid HFCs where possible.
But where can I find this tasty soda in Duluth? Do you know of a gas station or corner shop that still has some?
I’m looking to sell my sea kayak (decent boat used like 6 times, hence the sale). Besides Craigslist, are there places in town that I should be posting physical fliers?
A friend of a friend is looking to buy a cheap but lake-worthy boat in Duluth. He’s an artist working on a project documenting threats to Great Lakes fresh water.
He wants to start in Duluth and work towards the Ocean. He is looking for somebody that hangs out with small-fishing-company-types, or lake-ecology-research-professor types that might get his quest for a boat started.

Dear manufacturers of pretty much every electronics product,
Thank you so much for including a plastic sleeve for the owner’s manual. It would truly be a shame if such an important document as an owner’s manual were to ever be damaged by dust or spilled liquids during the two minutes between it coming out of the box and getting jammed into a file cabinet.
What you can expect Monday, or not expect.
