OUR OPINION: Sunlight + seawater = food
In the Australian desert, agronomists at Sundrop Farms "appear to have pulled off the ultimate something-from-nothing agricultural feat," The teams are "using the sun to desalinate seawater for irrigation and to heat and cool greenhouses as required, and thence to cheaply grow high-quality, pesticide-free vegetables year-round in commercial quantities."

OUR OPINION: Stadium agreement deserves support
Is the new agreement for a Minnesota Vikings stadium the best possible deal?Absolutely not. The best possible deal would have built a single stadium to host both the Vikings and the University of Minnesota’s football team.

And in a country that’s searching for new ways for students to pay for college, these “human capital contracts” deserve a second and third look.
