Minnesota man knocking on every door in his city to help those in need
A Minnesota man has an ambitious goal of knocking on every door in his city in an effort to help a local nonprofit. Taylor Callais carries grocery bags and flyers as he walks up to every home in Rosemount, nearly 10,000 of them. "I've got my work cut out for me, but I'm excited," he said. Whenever someone answers, Callais makes his pitch. He's going door to door to collect donations of non-perishable goods for 360 Communities, a Rosemount nonprofit. Callais leaves a flyer explaining his mission and a grocery bag at each house, whether someone answers or not. His plan is to return to all of the houses one week later in hopes the bags will be filled with food and household items that he can donate. Through their five Dakota County food shelves, 360 Communities served more than 13,000 people last year. Callais decided he wanted to help. "We might end up getting into winter, but so be it," he said. "I think I can make a big impact and I'm doing my part." Callais has flexible work hours as a realtor, so he says it just made sense for him. "To be able to connect with and help the people that you see at your kids' soccer game, at the grocery store, down the street, at the school — it's community," he said. Callais' message seems to be working. "Sounded like he was genuine and his information was accurate so we took it and we'll probably donate," said Bruce Anthony, a neighbor in Rosemount. Food shelf visits in Minnesota last year were up 20% from the year before.

Spacey Jane: Caleb Harper on getting vulnerable for third album If That Makes Sense and Australian tour
When Spacey Jane announced their return to live music after a 14-month hiatus, the response from hardcore fans was wild. An impromptu gig at the Rosemount Hotel, where it all started for the band, saw people snapping up limited tickets within minutes. 'It was our first time playing at the Rosemount in four years or something. And, yeah, I lay down on the ground after the show, just like, smiling. I was so happy. It felt really good. And we all missed it so much,' lead guitarist and vocalist Caleb Harper told Play via video call from his Fremantle home. It was a full-circle moment as the Rosie was one of the many smaller venues the band played at throughout 2016, which helped them build their cult following. 'It's funny, like Jim, one of the in-house engineers, is still there. Seeing him again after years was just really cool,' Harper said. 'I think we just are very lucky to have come as far as we have, and to be there felt like a really beautiful reminder of where it started.' And oh, how far Harper and his bandmates Ashton Hardman-Le Cornu, Kieran Lama and Peppa Lane have come since establishing themselves as one of Australia's hottest homegrown talents. Spacey Jane released their third album If That Makes Sense on Friday, and are about to embark on an Australian and New Zealand tour showcasing the body of work that has the band feeling the happiest and most proud they've ever been. Perth fans will get to hear the 13 new songs when they take the stage at for a whopping seven consecutive shows starting on June 26. 'It's ridiculous,' Harper admitted. 'It's been crazy to see how well everything's sold. 'And having been away for so long, we just didn't know if people had forgotten about us. Are they bored of us? Are they like, 'you're old news?' But to feel the love has been really special.' 'Fremantle is home, and it's like five minutes from my house, so I'm just gonna drive to work every day. 'The whole goal of this tour is to not go out and play the biggest rooms we can, but to play (rooms) that still feel like we're connected to people watching the show.' With Harper tapping into vulnerability lyrically, the 28-year-old found himself feeling isolated from the world during the writing process. 'It's not until the record is out that you're like 'Oh, whoops, I put everything in this and now everyone's going to hear it',' he said. 'But I don't mind. Songwriting is an extension of myself and my feelings and experiences, and I just want to capture those as simply as possible.' Perhaps Harper felt most exposed and was at his rawest when recording songs Through My Teeth, Whateverrrr, and Falling Apart. Harper described Whateverrrr as a 'wound', as it explores a brief snapshot of childhood joy that collides with sadness as he reflects on how he was raised. On Falling Apart, Harper focuses on harrowing memories, singing: 'I've got a story you would like/It's one where I'm forced to sleep outside/ It was pretty cold, I was 12 years old.' Lead track Through My Teeth delves into cutting ties with the strictures of church, heading to university at 18, and getting 'blackout' drunk. After leaving his musical aspirations for a while and instead partying in excess, flunking his engineering course and dealing with a breakdown, it was then Spacey Jane became Harper's purpose and solace. 'I personally credit the band, but particularly Ashton and Kieran, because Peppa joined later, for showing extreme grace and love and forgiving me over and over again,' he said. Harper also reflected on the three-year creative process of making their album in Los Angeles and the strong bond they share as a group, describing their relationship as 'somewhere between siblings and a four-way marriage'. The group decided to head to the home of some of the world's best music and the industry's brightest minds to 'shock the system and pull ourselves out of our comfort zone in a way that we hadn't before'. After whittling down the album from nearly 40 songs, the band headed to the studio with Mike Crossey (Arctic Monkeys, Wolf Alice, The 1975) for 12 weeks of recording. They also worked with new collaborators Jackson 'Day Wave' Phillips and Sarah Aarons, who has worked with Childish Gambino and Miley Cyrus. 'It felt like the right move to step out and see what could be done,' Harper said. 'And I think in the end, we got a record that we couldn't have made here or on our own. 'I love this project and I want to play it for people, and I love my bandmates and this thing we've built together. We stepped off the cliff every day and loved it, and we have never been happier with our work than we are now.'

Live updates: Day 2 at the Girls Hockey Minnesota State Tournament
After the top seeds in Class A advanced to the state semifinals on Wednesday, the big schools have the spotlight with Thursday's Girls Hockey State Tournament quarterfinals. Here are the results and games to come... In a stunner to start the tournament, No. 7 seed Rosemount upset the No. 2 seed Centennial/Spring Lake Park, avenging a 3-1 loss to the north metro power in the season opener. Sophie Stramel put Rosemount up 1-0 in the second period and Annalee Holzer's second goal of the game in the third period put the Irish up 3-1. The star of the game was Gianna Marchese, who made 33 stops in goal for Rosemount. Hill-Murray led 4-1 in the third period before Andover struck with consecutive goals from Maya Engler and Hannah Christenson to trim the deficit to one, but with an empty net the Pioneers sealed the victory when Emily Pohl carved a path behind the back of the net and scored to complete her hat trick. Emily Pohl is a sophomore and her sister, Anna Pohl, who also scored in the game, is only an eighth-grader. They are the daughters of Gophers greats Johnny Pohl and Krissy Wendell-Pohl. The top-ranked Hornets will look to repeat their 7-0 win over Farmington from earlier this season. It's a rematch of the Dec. 27 holiday tournament meeting in which Moorhead left the Twin Cities with a 3-2 win over the Fire.
