We have the shield-shaped bugs with the tiny heads, when it's warm. They can't fly very well. If you thwack them with your finger they usually die.
My area is loaded with them. I just chased one around my livingroom for an hour now, I think I got him, even though I can't find his body, because it stinks in there. Anyone else having this problem?
God I hate bugs.
We have the shield-shaped bugs with the tiny heads, when it's warm. They can't fly very well. If you thwack them with your finger they usually die.
Right but this one was on the ceiling. I guess it could had been kind of funny if it wasn't so late and I was so tired and so annoyed. They fly well enough.
I found them also when I removed the window air conditioner. They just slid right in all over the floor. Not that I don't have enough to deal with now.
This is the first I have heard of "stink" bugs.
That is ugly. I was eating lunch when I opened that, and now don't feel well... : )
Mine is black though. Kind of gray, too. I don't know what brought these on. I read where my region is loaded with them and I guess, I was last on the list but they are here. I am watching them right now, climbing on the outside of my garden window.
But, when you do kill them they smell... and I read, that odor brings others. That smell is so awful, it should be used as a weapon in warfare.
Thank you for the article. I wonder why China and Asia didn't get rid of the problem before they spread it everywhere else. I read about Dawn soap and usually, I have some but I am out of dish soap. So, will be heading to the market.
They are unreal.
The boys ( my cats) wants the windows open and since, I can see... the stink bugs waiting to get in, forget it.
You know how bad these things are? They are like a joke. Rodney Dangerfield would had loved them.
I chased one for over an hour the other night. They are not as "slow" moving as one would think. And, they fly better than you can imagine. As you get close to them, you see them crack open their shell of a body and out comes wings! The first time I saw this I was stunned. It looks prehistoric.
I was peacefully laying on the sofa watching some God-awful show on tv when I noticed something black sticking from my crown molding. I got up, thinking, how he would be easy to get. I got the broom and knocked him down and then, he was gone. He was just gone. I searched the floor, the cats helped me in the search.
I figured he was just dead. I started watching the stupid movie again when I saw it on the other side of the wall. I used the broom again, and that is when I saw he could fly. This time, I saw where he flew to. Right under the sofa. Boy, was I mad.
I moved the sofa out, flipped it as well as I could and didn't see him. I got the vacuum and did the floor and the sofa, and the hairy cat.
When all finished I started to watch the movie again, but now it was over. I started to flip the stations when I saw him again. I steadily flipped while watching him never taking my eyes off of where he was going. He went to the back of the room, behind me. So that is what his game is, I thought. I let him think I didn't know he was back there. I reached on the side of me, still flipping the stations and then, when I thought he would least expect it, I whacked him with the broom.
I hurriedly ran over to where I heard his body drop. Yes, you can hear their bodies drop on a hardwood floor. I looked and looked and couldn't find him.
I sat back down on the sofa, my son then came in from work and asked why I was watching the shopping tv station the one which sells "marital aids", and that was when I smelled "that" smell, and knew I got him. I yelled, "I GOT HIM!" My son said, " mom, don't kill the stinkbugs" and left really fast.
I hate bugs, but I really really hate stinkbugs.
I was sitting outside on my deck this morning eating my deep fried Snickers bar with a knive and a fork, when a stink bug dropped into my coffee. He sizzled and smelled, and I left it and went inside.
They are coffee drinkers.
I created an invention to get the stink bugs off the ceiling. It was working well until, a little bit ago. Here goes. I took my vacuum and since I am height challenged I got some old parts from other vacuums I found and made a stiff extension which reached from ground to ceiling to 9 feet. It was working well until...
I saw this Stink bug with an attitude.
He was on the ceiling and I was in my glory to get out my new handy-dandy stink bug removal invention which sits in the diningroom ready to go. I yelled to my son, "THERE'S A STINK BUG!" while running for the stink bug zzapper. He sat down and was watching at the simplicity of this. I reached up, put the longest part over him and sucked him in. I shut it off, ran outside with the clear canister and couldn't see him. I emptied it, didn't see him. I came inside feeling defeated knowing he was in here yet. I said, " did you see him?" Did I see who, my son asked...
I am on a mission.
I put the canister back on the vacuum and something is flying, a flying tank, he was flying towards what else? But, my new handy-dandy stink bug zzapper and you could had knocked me over with a feather when he landed on it, turned and looked at me, and without my glasses, I saw him laughing at me.
He was wiggling his butt, his antennas, he was doing a dance of joy and mockery.
His lost his attitude though when ...
I picked up a piece of cardboard and started to swing it, hearing my son's voice trailing off in the distance while he was running.... NO MOM DONT KILL THE STINK BUG!
Too late.
Sure, this place stinks now, son is gone, cats are gone, stink bug is gone, I am the only one here. All that remains is the stink and plans to alter the new handy-dandy stink bug removal zzapper.

Stink bugs. Who needs them. I was in the bath today trying to get some R & R. I poured a glorious amount of bath bubble stuff in the water enough to take over the small room if not careful. I was laying there with my eyes shut, my head back on a soft bath pillow, smelling the aroma of lavender when, I just had this feeling that I wasn't alone. Ever get that feeling? I opened my eyes and what did I see? But, a Stink Bug enjoying this bath too. He was floating on a pile of bubbles and since, it looked like he had his eyes closed, too, I slowly reached over and clicked opened the door and with my hand scooped him and his bubbles up and flicked it out into the hallway.
Next a few minutes later as fate would have it, my son came home and he knocked on the door asking, "Mom, why is there a stink bug laying in the hallway all wet and why does he smell like lavender?"

The Stink Bugs continue. I was in Home Depot today after work, and heard a man tell another man that he was traveling down the road and stink bugs started to fly into his service truck. He said, they got stuck in his teeth.
I didn't want to hear anymore. I moved on.
For those interested, this might be interesting. My neighbor opened his outdoor garage to get his motorcycle out, and there was over a thousand stink bugs in it. He actually, had to burn their bodies.
I am not lying. I saw it.

Your worries about trampoline jumping are justified.
Trampoline jumping poses a high risk of injury for both children and adults. Falling off a trampoline or using a trampoline incorrectly can result in strains, sprains, fractures and other injuries — including potentially serious head and neck injuries. In fact, the risk of injury is so high that the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) says that trampolines should never be used at home or in outdoor playgrounds. The AAP supports limited use of trampolines in supervised training programs, such as gymnastics and diving classes. But even then, strict safety guidelines must be followed.
It might be difficult to listen to your child's begging, but the best response to a request for a home trampoline — whether it's a full-sized backyard trampoline or a smaller indoor trampoline — is no.
If you choose to buy a trampoline despite the risks, follow these safety rules:
In addition, be aware that you might be charged a higher premium for homeowners insurance if you choose to buy a trampoline. Consider checking with your insurance provider about liability coverage as well.

Lahaina >Food & Dining > Plantation House Restaurant
2000 Plantation Club Dr, Lahaina, HI | Directions 9676121.006793 -156.639939
Monday To Sunday From 08:00 AM To 09:00 PM
A good lunch with a great view – Read some of the bad reviews, but my husband and I enjoyed the lunch we had there. Our waitress was flaky, but she recommended the tuna melt to me, and I loved it. We both thought that it was a great value for lunch with such a great view. If you're expecting to be bowled over, you won't be, but if you want a sandwhich with a great view of the ocean and gold course, you can't beat this place.
Atmosphere doesn't make up for terrible food – My new bride insisted we go to the Plantation House for a post-wedding celebration dinner since she had had a good experience there years ago. Unfortunately, I got the feeling that the chef or whoever oversees the kitchen either doesn't care, has gotten lazy or has been given pressure by new, corporate owners to cut cost wherever possible. The scallops in the appetizer were badly overcooked. My steak was cooked to the requested temperature, but it was a sad, dry little fillet. I realize that a restaurant in the middle of the ocean may have to get beef from far away, but, if it is possible to get fresh Sushi from around the globe, then certainly getting quality beef is possible. If it isn't possible, they shouldn't serve it -- or at least shouldn't charge nearly twice what a decent steak at a great restaurant on the mainland would charge for it. Frankly, the beef they served me was unfit for anything but Sizzler. By the time dessert menu came around, I asked about the "chocolate sauce" on one of the selections and joked that, based on the quality of the food up to that point, it was probably Hershey's syrup. I was appalled, but not entirely surprised, to find out I was right. What self-respecting chef would allow Hershey's syrup in his kitchen -- even for use in great Maui coffee? I don't know if there was an actual business decision to leverage the good reputation of the restaurant to make it in to a complete tourist trap, but it appears to me this is exactly what has happened. I realize most people don't know the difference between excellent food and garbage (or else places like Outback or Olive Garden couldn't thrive) and that a nice view is all they need to be happy. I do know the difference. I'm fat and broke for a reason. When I pay fine dining prices for a meal, I expect the quality of the food to reflect the cost or at least to come somewhere close. In this case, the Plantation House wasn't even in the ballpark. And that makes me really mad.
As seen on "Great Chefs of Hawaii". – On the show Chef Alex prepared "A Taste of the Rich Forest", one of five fish preps. You can have breakfast or lunch from 8-3. Dinner starts @ 5:30. My favorite is a late breakfast of "Crabcakes Benecict". ($9.00) Bargain. Dinner Entrees are in the $16-$24 range. Way reasonable when you're perched high on a hill in the Plantation Course Clubhouse overlooking the Pacific and Molokai. During the season opening Mercedes Championship they're usually closed so Alex can feed the golfers. You can see Kelsey Grammars new house from the dining room.

The shutdown's surprise effect on jobs numbers
WASHINGTON (AP) — The government shutdown may have affected October's jobs numbers. But not how you think.
In the height of irony, the 16 days of federal worker furloughs and government disruptions may have helped, not hurt, the improved jobs picture.
Because of the shutdown, the Bureau of Labor Statistics delayed the release of the jobs numbers by one week to allow more time to collect payroll and household data. That extra time resulted in an above average response rate for payroll data.
A stronger participation rate can skew the hiring numbers up. As a result, to some economists, Friday's robust jobs number is looking slightly inflated.
Furloughed federal workers must repay unemployment in Illinois
SPRINGFIELD, IL (AP) - State officials say federal employees in Illinois who were furloughed during the shutdown have to repay unemployment insurance benefits.
The Illinois Department of Employment Security said Monday in a release that preliminary data shows that of the 2,937 federal workers who applied for unemployment insurance, 577 went on to be paid benefits. That represents a total of $231,174.
The department says that the employees will be sent notices that the money must be repaid. If it isn't, department officials can take steps to recover the money like garnishing tax refunds.
IDES Director Jay Rowell says the partial shutdown "needlessly scared" scores of workers.
The partial federal government shutdown lasted 16 days.
Budget crisis exposes deepening rift in GOP
BOSTON (AP) — Lawmakers and strategists from the Republican Party's establishment are lashing out at tea partiers and congressional conservatives whose unflinching demands triggered the 16-day partial government shutdown and sent the GOP's popularity plunging to record lows.
The open criticism is a stark reversal from just three years ago when the GOP embraced new energy from the insurgent group to fuel a return to power in the House.
For a party in an extended identity crisis, the intensifying clash between those in its mainstream and those on its far-right wing muddies its strategy ahead of the 2014 elections.
In the view of former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, House Republicans overreached during the budget impasse by believing "we have one-half of one-third of the power in Washington, therefore we have three-fourths of the ability to get things done."
Republicans run the House, but Democrats control the Senate and the White House.
Bush, a potential 2016 presidential candidate who was hosting an education conference in Boston, argued that congressional Republicans represent "the mirror opposite" of the successes of GOP governors.
Other party elders, whose calls for compromise were often overshadowed by the tea party in recent weeks, blamed conservative groups such as Heritage Action, the Senate Conservatives Fund and the Club for Growth. They were influential during the debate, at times promising to help defeat Republicans lawmakers who voted for a compromise with Democrats.
"The right is a multiplicity of various groups, some of which aren't even Republicans, but who think they can control the Republican Party," said Sen. Orrin Hatch of Utah, condemning tactics he referred to as "radicalness."
Republican strategist Mike Murphy chided what he called "the stupid wing of the Republican Party."
"There's tension and there ought to be a questioning of whether we ought to listen to such bad advice," Murphy said when asked about the influence of conservative groups. "We took a huge brand hit. It's self-inflicted. ... I'm glad there are no elections tomorrow."
The government reopened Thursday after Congress voted the night before to end the shutdown and increase the nation's borrowing authority, narrowly averting what business leaders feared would be economic disaster with global implications.
Polls suggest that voters overwhelmingly disapproved of congressional Republicans' handling of the crises.
Gallup found earlier in the month that just 28 percent of Americans reported a favorable opinion of the GOP, its lowest rating since the firm began such polling about the two parties in 1992. Republicans may have fared worse than Democrats during the ordeal, but neither party escaped political damage.
"There are no winners here," President Barack Obama said Thursday.
The compromise package, brokered by a group of moderate Senate Republicans and Democrats, funds the government through Jan. 15. To head off a default, the agreement gives the government the authority to borrow what it needs through Feb. 7. Treasury officials will be able to use bookkeeping maneuvers to delay a potential default for several weeks beyond that date, as they have done in the past.
Lawmakers are now trying to find agreement on how to replace this year's automatic, across-the-board spending cuts with more orderly deficit reduction. But the showdown and subsequent criticism from establishment Republicans seemed to embolden defiant conservatives, who promised more hard-line tactics in the coming months. Some pledged to work harder than ever to defeat Republicans who stand in their way.
"Congress has failed," the Tea Party Express said in a fundraising message.
Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, a tea party favorite, hinted at primary challenges for Republican incumbents "from sea to shining sea" just hours after Congress voted to end the shutdown.
"Friends, do not be discouraged by the shenanigans of D.C.'s permanent political class," she wrote on her Facebook page. "Be energized. We're going to shake things up in 2014."
The Club for Growth on Thursday endorsed a GOP challenger to Republican Sen. Thad Cochran of Mississippi, who has yet to decide whether he will seek re-election next year. Tea party groups are also supporting the conservative challenger to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell in Kentucky while backing like-minded candidates in North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee.
Sen. Kelly Ayotte, R-N.H., said she hopes her party would move toward "common-sense problem solvers" in the future.
"I don't want to go down this road again," she said in an interview with The Associated Press, noting that she disagreed with congressional conservatives' tactics during the budget fight. "What we take from this experience is that there are obviously common-sense problem solvers, and that's where the party needs to be."
Iowa Republican Gov. Terry Branstad is among those pushing for mainstream Republicans to play a more significant role in party politics.
"We don't have leadership in Washington, D.C.," Branstad said of his party, making an exception for Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan, who is helping lead bipartisan budget talks and headlining a Branstad fundraiser next month. "There's a lot of governors around this country who could run this country a lot better than people in Washington."
Associated Press writer Thomas Beaumont in Des Moines, Iowa, and news survey specialist Dennis Junius in Washington contributed to this report.
Obama signs bill to avert default, open government
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama has signed a measure into law reopening the federal government and averting a potential default.
The White House says Obama signed the bill early Thursday, hours after the House gave final approval.
The White House budget office has already instructed federal workers to plan to return to work Thursday morning.
The measure restores funding for the government through Jan. 15 and extends the nation's borrowing authority through Feb. 7.
The partial government shutdown started Oct. 1. The U.S. was to reach its debt limit Thursday if no deal was reached.
As the deal neared final passage in the House Wednesday, Obama said it was now time for leaders in Washington to win back the trust of Americans that was lost during the debt-and-spending crisis.
2 parties bicker over blame for parks shutdown
WASHINGTON (AP) - As congressional leaders raced to seal a deal that would reopen the government, lawmakers from both parties jabbed at one another Wednesday over who was to blame for the most high-profile casualties of the 16-day shutdown: the national parks.
At a House hearing, members of Congress focused on the World War II Memorial on the National Mall, where veterans were initially denied access after the government closed on Oct. 1. A crowd that included Republican lawmakers converged on the memorial Sunday, pushing past barriers to protest the site's closure.
The memorial and other national park units have become a political symbol as lawmakers bicker over blame for the park closings.
Republicans say many parks and open-air monuments did not need to be closed, but Democrats said the GOP had only itself to blame for the shutdown, after Republicans demanded that measures to defund the new health care law be included in bills to keep the government open.
Rep. Peter DeFazio, D-Ore., held up a mirror at the hearing and invited Republicans to look at it to find the cause of the shutdown.
Governors in at least five states have reopened national parks such as the Grand Canyon and Statue of Liberty in recent days, but Republicans say the measures were too little, too late.
Rep. Doc Hastings, R-Wash., said the National Park Service appears to have intentionally made the shutdown "as painful and visible as possible."
Park Service Director Jonathan Jarvis denied that, saying that turning away visitors "is not in our DNA."
Jarvis called the agreements with governors that have allowed some parks to reopen "a practical and temporary solution that will lessen the pain for some businesses and communities - a Band-Aid until Congress passes an appropriations bill."
Jarvis, who appeared at the hearing only after being issued a subpoena, urged Congress to reopen the government so his agency can reopen all 401 national park units.
Republicans, including Hastings and Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., said the Park Service acted in a political and provocative manner when it set up barricades at open-air monuments such as the World War II Memorial and placed traffic cones along highway viewing areas outside Mount Rushmore and other parks.
Hastings heads the House Natural Resources Committee, while Issa leads the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee. The committees held the joint hearing.
Jarvis defended placement of barricades at the World War II Memorial and other sites, saying that all but a dozen park service employees who work at the National Mall have been furloughed. Given the limited staff resources during the shutdown, "prudent and practical steps were taken to secure life and property at these national icons where security has become increasingly complex in a post-9/11 world," he said.
Contrary to the assertion of several Republican lawmakers, Jarvis said the Park Service allowed veterans and their families to visit the World War II Memorial.
"We know that visits of America's World War II veterans to the memorial are pilgrimages that many of them will only make once," he said. "Throughout the shutdown, we have worked diligently to try and ensure that no Honor Flight group, veteran, or their family has been turned away from visiting the veterans' memorials."
An organization called the Honor Flight Network brings World War II veterans to Washington.
Other visitors also are allowed at the memorial under an exception that allows First Amendment activities, Jarvis said.
Rep. Doug Lamborn, R-Colo., was not impressed. He said Jarvis's decision to set up barricades at the Lincoln and World War II memorials was "wrong" and mean-spirited.
"You besmirched (the Park Service's) reputation and soured relations with Congress," Lamborn told Jarvis. "In my opinion you have failed."
Rep. Gerry Connolly, D-Va., denounced Lamborn's comment and called Jarvis an "exemplary" public servant. Connolly called the hearing a "theater of the absurd" and "an audacious attempt by the majority to deflect responsibility and blame for the real-world consequences of a government shutdown."
GOP Sens. Ted Cruz of Texas and Mike Lee of Utah, along with former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, were among those at the World War II Memorial on Sunday. Cruz, Lee and other tea party-backed lawmakers refused to keep the government operating unless President Barack Obama agreed to defund the nation's health care overhaul.
Tax deadline not delayed by gov't shutdown
Even a partial government shutdown that has most IRS workers furlough won't affect Tuesday's tax deadline.
Tax filers who requested a six month extension back in April must file their taxes by today.
Officials with the Internal Revenue Service say the shutdown hasn't changed that, but it has halted any refund checks until normal government operations resume.
There's also no one there to take calls or answer taxpayer questions, since more than 90 percent of IRS workers are on furlough.
Boeing employees could face furloughs if government shutdown continues
One of the largest employers in the St. Louis area might be forced to furlough its workers if the government shutdown.
Boeing spokesman Dan Beck tells the St. Louis Business Journal that the company's workforce reductions could be caused by customer-issued, stop-work orders, funding cuts, or a shortage of government inspectors. Boeing's workers at its Hazelwood-based Defense, Space & Security unit would be the ones affected by the furloughs.
The unit has over 15,000 full-time employees in St. Louis.
School safe room projects on hold during fed shutdown
NEOSHO, Mo. (AP) - Several southwest Missouri school districts that have planned new safe rooms since a deadly May 2011 tornado destroyed much of Joplin say their projects could be delayed by the federal shutdown.
In Neosho that means more than $10 million in projects are on hold because there's nobody at the Federal Emergency Management Agency that can approve the work. Similar projects in Webb City, Avilla and Joplin also are in limbo because of the shutdown.
The Joplin Globe reports school officials believe a delay in awarding contracts could mean construction on the safe rooms might have to be pushed back until next year.
An architect for several of the projects says it takes six to eight weeks to complete the bid process after FEMA approves of the designs.
Most Illinois workers laid-off due to shutdown are back on job
CHICAGO (AP) - Gov. Pat Quinn's budget office says most state workers whose salaries are paid by federal money are back on the job, but more layoffs could come if the federal shutdown continues.
Roughly 100 workers were issued temporary layoffs last week, including employees with the Department of Military Affairs, the Illinois Department of Employment Security and Labor Department.
Quinn's budget office says temporary layoffs for more than 70 employees expired Wednesday. The U.S. House has approved back pay for some workers.
More than three dozen workers are still off the job, including Labor employees who conduct work site safety inspections. More state layoffs could be issued next week.
Quinn has sent U.S. House Speaker John Boehner a letter, urging the shutdown's end and predicting hundreds more layoffs if the shutdown continues.
Furloughed workers report to Scott Air Force Base
Civilian employees, who were furloughed from Scott Air Force Base last week, are back at work. Scott spokeswoman Karen Petitt says the 35-hundred affected workers were notified Sunday that they should be back on the job today.
The decision came after Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel this weekend ordered 350,000 military personnel, furloughed by the federal government's shutdown, back on the job. Those workers at Scott represent about two-thirds of the installation's non-military staff of 13,000 employees. Scott Air Force Base is one of the region's largest employers.

Best miniature camera I have brought well worth the money.the best thing about this product is the high quality picture that you receive and it's so simple to use.
It's actually better than I expected - and it's easier than trying to wiggle a phone into a confined area and take a picture (which is what I have often ended up doing - over and over until I could work out what was what). It seems quite well built (time will tell if it holds up) - and it comes in a nice carry/storage case. My one quibble - it doesn't work on a Mac, so I dug out an old XP laptop and when installing the drivers you get a warning that they aren't officially supported by Microsoft and shouldn't be installed (risk of destabilising your system). This certainly isn't ideal - but I suspect it costs money for official accreditation. As my XP laptop is old - I went ahead and it did work (although I had to reboot for a second installation to occur - when windows recognized a new device and then found the drivers I had installed prior to reboot). If you can get it on sale - definitely worth a purchase.
An excellent tool. Whether threading cables, spotting that dropped bolt in an engine bay or checking the seal on an inaccessible oil filter, the Flexible Snake is your friend. Easy to install software, a very good view on a laptop screen with adjustable lighting for improved clarity and a waterproof head for inclement viewing conditions, you'll wonder how you managed without it. An invaluable addition to your toolkit at a very affordable price. TJ
It did the job I required it for but only just. However, for the price it cost I couldn't complain plus the fact that I required it to check inside an aircraft wing on a bright sunny day, so had problems seeing the laptop screen; of course, no fault of the scope. The picture is a bit grainy but again, for the money, a good buy.
One of the most useful tools I have bought, excellent value.
Good clear image and appears fairly robust. A bit too bulky for my purposes, but still a good product.
well pleased with it ,as it will be very usfull for seeing in hard to reach areas. Thank you.
An excellent piece of kit. More versatile than I thought it would be.
Better picture than expected at the price. Delighted with the product.
Worked really well on windows 7. Could not get it to work on my Linux software. That aside very good results. I use it to check inside walls when running electric cables.

Not your typical summer scene on the Red Lake RiverIt's been a record breaking year for high water throughout the Red River Valley, but tonight we show you an area suffering from low water levels.
It's been a record breaking year for high water throughout the Red River Valley, but tonight we show you an area suffering from low water levels.
This is the typical summertime scene on the Red Lake River.
Not this year.
Ryan: It's our 29th year in business. We've never seen anything like this.
Low water levels have shut down the tubing park at Voyager's View since the first day of summer.
Jason: We've never shut down this early for the tube run before ever.
The family owned business is already out thousands of dollars.
Jason: A typical Sunday we might have about 400 tubers. I would say that's about where we're sitting for the year.
But their biggest concern isn't the lost business. It's their 32 employees.
Ryan: It's disheartening to go into town and see all the people that should be working for us that are out of work.
Now to open the tubing back up, the water levels here need to be about 10 and 1/2 feet. But even then the owners say they need to have enough staff ready to get back to work.
Jason: It's tough to get all those kids geared up to come work for us for two days.
Despite the tubing woes, the Brumwell family is here working every day. Focusing on the camping side of the business.
Jason: I think it will help us in the long run build that camping traffic.
The majority of campers here, like this group, are from Canada. Charlene Morin and her husband have been vacationing at Voyageur's View for 15 years.
Charlene: We just come down to relax and do the tubing.
But with the tubing closed, they're making the most of the river with their own equipment.
Charlene: It is a little different. The water is very low but for us it's a weekend away so the tubing is a bonus. But we come down because we enjoy the campground.
While the Morin's say they'll always keep their reservations here, other longtime campers haven't.
Jason: We've had people that have been coming for 28 years and this would be their 29th, and with the no tubing some of them have canceled. That's a little disheartening.
The owners say the best case scenario is being able to open next weekend if they get enough water let out from the Red Lake Dam. If not, they say the tube park might remain closed until next year.

This is the second in a series of posts from the International Development Club.
Each semester, the International Development Club (IDC) matches student teams with organizations around the world to work on over a dozen consulting projects. The aim is to put together teams that can apply the business thinking that we study at CBS to help organizations that work to improve lives across the developing world. At the same time we want to provide students with the opportunity to gain exposure to working in the field of international development. We have served a wide range of clients (PDF) that includes foundations, non-profit organizations, multilaterals, non-profit consulting firms, social entrepreneurs and for-profit businesses that have a positive social or environmental impact.
Teams work from New York with their clients throughout the semester and travel to visit them during breaks with support from the International Development Consulting Project Travel Fund from the Social Enterprise Program. Donors include the program's advisory board members and Deutsche Bank. Each team is matched with a project advisor that provides mentorship throughout the project. Project advisors are typically international development practitioners, consultants at firms here in New York, or CBS faculty members.
But where do IDC projects come from? In the past, the IDC has sourced projects from organizations that have experience working with students or from organizations that we have partnered with in the past. A number of projects each semester also come together as organizations are networked with the IDC.
This semester the IDC is working to restructure its projects program to relaunch as a branded pro bono consulting group in the spring semester. The new structure will raise the profile of the important work that our members are doing and help us to source more and higher quality international development projects each semester. Additionally, the relaunch aims to:
- Source a balanced portfolio of projects each semester that matches student interest in geographies, industries and organizations
- Increase impact for client organizations by consistently providing high quality deliverables
- Identify an advisory board to advise and oversee the student-run group
- Create ongoing relationships with the most exciting clients in order to have a pipeline of high-quality projects
- Create ongoing relationships with project advisors who can provide appropriate mentorship to teams semester after semester
The IDC Projects team is hard at work preparing to relaunch for the spring semester. However, we urgently need a name for this exciting new IDC initiative. The name should capture the uniqueness of the IDC brand and be fitting of an MBA student-run pro bono consulting group that works with some of the most innovative organizations in the field of international development. With a community full of consultants — not to mention aspiring marketing gurus and budding entrepreneurs — there must be one of you out there who can come up with the perfect name for the new group! Submit your ideas online here by Friday, November 7th. If you have more than one, please feel free to share them all.
The International Development Club aims to cultivate passionate leaders who aspire to make a global impact by applying cutting-edge business thinking to development issues. The IDC offers consulting opportunities with enterprises throughout the developing world, a speaker series and an annual Washington DC careers trip. Last year, the IDC spun off Microlumbia, the first student-run microfinance fund of its type.

Grand Forks Gears Up For Relay For Life Kick-OffYou can almost feel the excitement in the air as hundreds of people are getting ready to lace up their shoes to raise awareness of cancer.
Relay for Life kicks off in Grand Forks on January 10.
Anyone is welcome to register as a team, join a team or help out individually.
Event organizers are hoping to raise $185,000 for cancer research this year, $15,000 more than last year's total.
"It's a way to recognize people who have survived cancer, it's a way to honor those who have not survived cancer. And a way to get the whole community involved," said Co-Chair Nancy Klatt.
The event is at the Clarion Inn at 6 pm.

IBAN and BIC
Payments in Europe:
always use the IBAN and BIC
Since 1 January 2006, European banks require the payee's IBAN (International Bank Account Number) and BIC (Bank Identifier Code) for payment transactions. If the IBAN and BIC are not included on a payment order, the recipient bank will levy additional third-party charges because it will be unable to process the payment details automatically. These third-party costs are passed on the person ordering the payment. Since 2007 recipient banks have had the right to reject orders for cross-border payments that do not carry an IBAN and BIC.
It therefore makes sense to switch to the IBAN and BIC for your foreign payment transactions. If you do not know the beneficiary's IBAN and/or the BIC of the beneficiary's bank and they are not shown on the invoice, please ask the beneficiary for this information.
The IBAN is a standardized international account number that allows instant recognition of the three main account identifiers i.e. the country, bank and account number. The BIC is used to identify the beneficiary's bank. A payment instruction which includes the IBAN and BIC can be processed automatically without manual intervention.
If you send invoices abroad, please provide the payer with your IBAN and BIC. You can find your own IBAN and BIC, for example, on your account statement either in UBS e-banking or on the printed version.
The UBS information sheet "Payments in Europe: always use the IBAN and BIC " will provide you with more details.
You can also use the IBAN for your Swiss domestic payment transactions.
Products and services in these webpages may not be available for residents of certain nations. Please consult the sales restrictions relating to the service in question for further information.

Social networking sites now reach 82 percent of the world's online population, representing 1.2 billion users around the world.
Particularly telling of social networking's emergence is the amount of time people spent on sites such as Facebook, Orkut, or VKontakte. As a percentage of all the time people spend online, social networking activity has more than tripled in the last few years. In October 2011, Social Networking ranked as the most popular content category in worldwide engagement, accounting for 19 percent of all time spent online.Nearly 1 in every 5 minutes spent online is now spent on social networking sites – a stark contrast from when the category accounted for only 6 percent of time spent online in March 2007.

Prazdroj supplies beer to 85 summer festivals (Translation)
24 June 2011
Plzeň, June 21, 2011 - Plzeňský Prazdroj, partner of approximately 70 percent of large music festivals in the Czech Republic, will supply beer for this year's series of 85 forthcoming major events and more than 200 smaller musical events. Gambrinus beer will grab the largest share, but Pilsner Urquell lager will conclude this year's musical season at the renowned Pilsner Fest on August 26th and 27th.
Gambrinus is the most common brand at musical festivals, and this year it will quench the thirst of visitors at 80 major musical events. Gambrinus has been a partner of some of the most renowned festivals for years now. For example, the cooperation with Noc plná hvězd in Třinec started in 1995 and still continues today.
"Besides the usual support of major music festivals such as United Islands in Prague, we'll also accompany the summer and autumn tour of Tři sestry, which will be inducted to the Beatová síň slávy (Rock Hall of Fame) this year. On top of that, the band's front man performs in a Mr. Beer costume, which is really cool. Our beer will also be available at other musical events, like the concerts held on the beautiful grounds of Loket nad Ohří or at Buchlovské léto," says Vladimír Kleisner, Pilsner Urquell manager, who oversees this area at Prazdroj.
Several hundred hectolitres of beer are drawn at events that see up to tens of thousands of visitors, and this places heavy demands on securing tents and taps and maintaining the quality of the beer. That's why Prazdroj considers conditions on-site and, along with organisers, seeks ways to store the beer optimally for the best possible conditions when serving. The proper placement of the taps has to correspond with the anticipated attendance. Prazdroj calculates the number of kegs and taps based on experience from past years. Beer offerings are based on the programme, the performers' appeal, the musical genre and the location. Of note is the utilisation of relatively up-to-date weather forecasts, which affect not only the volume of beer but also the types of beers offered.
There are up to 200 taps at the largest and most visited festivals. In necessary cases, such as two large festivals overlapping, Prazdroj can use almost 500 taps at the same time. This allowed the drawing of a record-breaking 150,000 beers without a hitch at one of the largest open-air musical events in Western Bohemia, last year's Pilsner Fest.
Such good service and expertise has received praise from festival organisers. "We have been cooperating with Plzeňský Prazdroj since the festival's beginnings, and we are very happy with its approach. The technical background for these events plays an important part, and I daresay Prazdroj's is the best among all breweries," said Pavel Mikez, the main organiser of the Benátská noc festival.
This year, the beer in Plzeňský Prazdroj tents will appear at approximately 300 events, with an expected attendance of 1.5 million visitors and an estimated output volume of 19,000 hectolitres of beer, including the nonalcoholic Birell. For this season, Prazdroj once again plans to use its special thermally insulated beer tanks, especially at giant events such as Masters of Rock at Vízovice. At all these events, only organisers or catering staffs will serve beer.
Notes for editors
- With total sales of close to 9.9 million hectolitres in the 2010 calendar year (including licensed production abroad) and with exports to more than 50 countries, Plzeňský Prazdroj is the biggest producer of beer in the region and the biggest exporter of Czech beer.
- Plzeňský Prazdroj, a. s., is a member of the SABMiller plc Company. Pilsner Urquell is an international flagship of SABMiller brands.
- SABMiller plc is one of the biggest global brewing companies worldwide, with brewing activities and distribution in more than 60 countries on six continents. SABMiller's brand group include such important brands as Grolsch, Miller Genuine Draft, Peroni Nastro Azzurro and Pilsner Urquell, and almost 200 successful regional and national brands.

Great Truck by Dave from Iowa on 10/12/2011. Trim: 2004 Chevrolet Colorado Z71 Crew Cab 4WD, Owned 7 years.
Pros: I purchased my colorado new in 2004 and it s been a fantastic truck. With over 100,000 miles on it now Its been nearly trouble free with a ground wire proublem being the only isue. Its gotten as much as 24mpg on the highway but averages 21 mpg. The ride and handling are very good, the I5 engine has good power, everyone that has driven my truck have commented on how nice it drives. After nearly 8 years and 100,000 miles the leather seats still look great and there are no rattles on squeaks. The paint still looks as new with no rust anywhere and I live in Iowa. The magazines have given this truck a raw deal, its truely a great vehicle .
Cons: The interior is very comfortable but is very plain looking. It could use a few more gadgits like homelink and heated mirrors.
Overall review: I would recommend this truck to anyone.
