More than 30 residents of Lakeside Manor in Redwood Falls sat around tables at the Redwood Area Community Center Tuesday waiting for the opportunity to find out what is next for them.
The residents were displaced from their homes this past Thursday night when a fire was discovered in the local facility.
The damage to the building was severe enough that residents have not been allowed back in the building, with the exception of a few minutes to go into their apartments to get those items they really needed to have.
Since then, some have been residing with family, but a significant number of them have been receiving assistance that allowed them to stay in local hotel rooms, thanks in part to the assistance initially provided by the local Red Cross followed by the Salvation Army. That assistance is going to be ending soon, and those who have not found a more long-term residential solution were given a chance to find out what is available for them.
Several local organizations were on hand for a resource meeting to provide assistance for the residents.
Among those offering assistance were representatives of the Redwood County veterans services office, Western Community Action, the Salvation Army, RSVP, the West-ern Mental Health Cen-ter as well as those who had residential options, both temporary and long-term for the residents.
"These people are willing to help you get on the right road," said Mark Dressen, Red-wood Falls police chief. "I want to encourage you to take advantage of it now."
Nikki Warner, who manages Lakeside Manor, was encouraged by the number of residents who showed up, as well as by those who were there to offer assistance.
"It is going to be a good while before you are able to be home," Warner told the residents, adding she plans to keep those residents informed about when they are going to be able to get in and collect more of their belongings.
The fire itself continues to be investigated, which is why the residents have not been allowed back into the facility.
As has been reported, one individual, Gene Gilland passed away as a result of the fire, and the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension was called into investigate the death. That investigation continues in conjunction with the police department.
Donations for the residents are being accepted, and those who would like to make a tax-deductible donation can do so through the Redwood Area Communities Founda-tion. Checks can be made out to the Redwood Area Com-munities Foundation and sent to PO Box 481, Redwood Falls, MN, 56283. Donations may also be dropped off at 200 South Mill Street, between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Cleopatra Pendleton, left, is consoled by her sister Kimiko Pettis, during a news conference with Chicago Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy seeking help from the public in solving the murder of Pendleton's daughter Hadiya Wednesday, Jan. 30, 2013, in Chicago. Hadiya, 15, who had performed in President Barack Obama's inauguration festivities, was killed in a Chicago park as she talked with friends by a gunman who apparently was not even aiming at her. The city's 42nd slaying is part of Chicago's bloodiest January in more than a decade, following on the heels of 2012, which ended with more than 500 homicides for the first time since 2008. It also comes at a time when Obama, spurred by the Connecticut elementary school massacre in December, is actively pushing for tougher gun laws. (AP Photo/Charles Rex Arbogast)

I have recently run into the problem of stuttering of the video on my ps3. I have been using the media server for a year now and haven't had this problem get as severe, avi files would periodically stutter but nothing this severe
When I update to the 1.60 version I found that mkv and mp4 files played flawlessly. Now I can't seem to get anything to play smoothly regardless of file type or size.
I updated my ps3 media server to the latest 1.72 and I am having the same results.
My computer specs are: Pentium Dual-Core CPU
2.8 GHz
Windows 7 64 bit operating system
As well as a wireless connection to my ps3 from my router.
Any help would be appreciated.......I am handy enough with computers to get everything installed and working but this has got me stumped.

One of the things that make World Bearquarters (BQ) so unique is that we are a corporate office that allows four-legged friends to come to work. On any given day we could have as many as 10-20 dogs in the office. They are all pretty well-behaved and usually stay near their owner, either on a leash or in a gated area. But there is one dog that has been here since the beginning, a pioneer pooch, if you will. Meet Chief Executive Dog, Milford D. Krueger. Milford started coming to BQ when he was just a little pup – under 10 pounds. Now, at almost 100 pounds, he is definitely a full grown dawg. He sat down with me and answered a few questions from some of my fellow bears.
Hi Milford, thanks for taking the time out of your busy day to speak with me. I know you've held your position for a long time, but before we get to talking about the present, tell me, what was your first day of work like?
Scary. Before I came to BABW, I was abandoned and people weren't nice to me, so I went to stay at a place called the City Pound. I made a lot of friends there, but had to live in a cage. Then, I went to a place called an adoption fair and my Mom and Dad found me. When I found out I was going to work, I wasn't sure what to expect at this big building with yellow walls. But it ended up being full of really nice people. Back then, it was just me and one other dog, so it took a while to train all the people to keep treats in their drawers. And now there are lots of dogs around here – we have a dog gone good time! It's been a great 10 years!
What exactly is it that you do all day? Could you tell us a little bit about your typical day at the office?
Well, mostly I try to make the bears that work in our office (people) smile. I have a big comfy bed that is right outside one of the important meeting rooms.It's called "Muckety Muck" and they have fancy meetings in there sometimes. I go to lots of meetings with my Mom (sometimes they get a little boring so I jump up and down until someone takes me out just to get a break!) And lots of times the big people bring in their little pups and I get to play with them. It's actually a really fun place to come, but I am really pooped at the end of the day!
Since you started working here, lots of dogs have joined your ranks. How do you welcome newcomers to BQ?
There's a lady named Darlene that is in charge of people, and she and I worked up a letter that tells all the new pooches what the rules are. Like stick with your human (who has to clean up your you-know-what when you go outside), don't bring any fleas to the office, you can't go in the food room because people don't like hair in their lunches. And it's better to sit and shake than to bark and growl. Stuff like that.
Milford, if you weren't Chief Executive Dog, what other path do you think you would have chosen in life?
That one is pretty hard. I can't even imagine what it would be like not coming to work. I hate it when my Mom has to go on a trip and I can't go to BQ. But last year my Grandpa was in a place called a nursing home because he couldn't live in his house anymore. So I would go with my Mom and visit him and a lot of other people that lived there. It was fun to have them all pet me (I tried to get them to scratch my back which is the best) and see them smile. So I guess I would have tried to be a nursing dog.
And finally, the question on everyone's mind, what do you do when you're not working hard at BQ?
I make sure that Molly and Maddie, the cats that live at my house, don't eat my food. I make sure that the bunnies stay out of Mom's garden. I talk to my pal, Buddy, the dog that lives behind me. I sit on the red couch and look out the window to see who is walking down our street. (I'm not allowed on the green couch when Mom is looking). And sometimes, I check on my friends on my Facebook page. (Well, it's Mom that has to do the typing for me but it's me doing the talking!) My all-time favorite thing to do is to lay on the hill in my yard and just smell the air. It reminds me that I have a pretty darn good happy life.
Milford, thanks again for your time. I look forward to our future meetings together!
If you have a question for Milford, please post it below. Milford has graciously agreed to do his best to periodically answer your questions in future blog posts. Look for more Chief Executive Dog blogs, right here on Behind the Seams!

Deputies: Stolen safe found
Published: Thursday, April 25, 2013 at 10:19 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, April 26, 2013 at 10:34 a.m.
Lafourche detectives found a stolen safe under a neighbor's bed, the Sheriff's Office said.
Residents who lived on Waverly Road reported Tuesday that their safe had been stolen, and detectives decided they wanted to speak to Seth Falgout, 23, 653 Waverly Road, after interviewing the residents, the Sheriff's Office said. The safe contained cash and paperwork.
Detectives arrived at his home, and Falgout consented to a search, deputies said. They found an open safe, containing paperwork belonging to his neighbors, under Falgout's bed. They also found cash at his home, although not as much as the amount of money that was missing.
Falgout is charged with simple burglary of an inhabited dwelling, records show. He is in the Lafourche Parish jail on a $35,000 bond.

A Must Read - Share
SHALE exploitation in North Dakota has lifted incomes and brought unemployment down to 3.2% of the workforce, the lowest level in the country. Californians are rarely found looking longingly towards the Midwest. But the revelation that their state, with unemployment at 9.8% and America's highest poverty rate, may be sitting on the largest deposit of shale oil in the continental United States has led some to wonder if their salvation lies 10,000 feet (3,000 metres) beneath them. California has been an oil state since 1865. Thanks largely to reserves that can still be tapped by

DENVER - Snow is expected to fall over parts of western Colorado from Wednesday through Friday morning.
The National Weather Service said the mountains will get between 6 and 14 inches while between 2 and 6 inches will fall in the valleys.
The snow comes on the heels of a Christmas Eve storm that dropped 20 inches of snow on some parts of Grand Mesa. The Powderhorn ski resort on the mesa reported getting 14 inches of new snow in the last 48 hours.
Meanwhile, the storm that's hitting the nation's midsection has cancelled some flights into Denver from Indianapolis and Pittsburgh and is delaying some departures for Cincinnati, Philadelphia and La Guardia. Denver-based Frontier Airlines is waiving fees for travelers who change the timing of their flights to parts of Ohio, Detroit, Indianapolis and LaGuardia.

"The photos do not do them justice...they were absolutely stunning! The pearlized paper finish was totally worth the extra cost for both the invitations and the envelopes. The matching stickers perfectly fit my theme with a custom saying. The designer was prompt and accommodating with special requests with regard to verbiage and design. I couldn't have been more pleased with the outcome and received many compliments on them."
"Love this shower invitation!! I am super picky and have a very romantic taste, so I did a lot of research before choosing an invite - this one is perfect! So cute & totally feminine! I added some lines in as well because I had more information to display than what was shown in the sample, and my biggest concern was that it would look too cluttered - not the case! The designer worked with me to create several proofs and let me compare the different ways she spaced it out - WPD designers are so accommodating and the invite came out absolutely perfect!!!"
"These invites turned out exactly as we pictured/wanted. The design is detailed and very pretty. Excellent quality and service. Will definitely use this site again!"
"When I tried to make my order I ran into some glitches. I called them. They apologized, completed my order over the phone and shipped it to me. I also received a card in the mail thanking me for my business. Love the customer service! Thank you!!"

Obama Blasts Republicans at Congressional Black Caucus Awards
By Chloe Sommers CNN | 9/22/2013, 9:03 a.m.
Washington (CNN) -- President Obama blasted Republicans Saturday evening for risking a government shutdown in their effort to defund Obamacare saying, "It is time for these folks to stop governing by crisis."
President Barack Obama was speaking at the 43rd Annual Congressional Black Caucus Foundation Phoenix Awards Dinner. His speech focused on an array of topics, including health care, gun violence and creating economic opportunity.
Hitting at Congressional Republicans, Obama said, "You'd be willing to shut down the government and potentially default for the first time in United States history because it bothers you so much that we're actually going to make sure that everybody has affordable health care. Let me say as clearly as I can: It is not going to happen."
Obama added, "We have come too far, we've overcome far darker threats than those. We will not negotiate whether or not America should keep its word and meet its obligations. We're not going to allow anyone to inflict economic pain on millions of our own people just to make an ideological point."
Another theme of the night was gun violence, with the president citing recent mass shootings in Chicago and Washington's Navy Yard. He also spoke of others "whose loved ones were torn from them without headlines sometimes, or public outcry."
"We can't rest until all of our children can go to school or walk down the street free from the fear that they will be struck down by a stray bullet."
The president also returned frequently in his remarks to the topic of income inequality, economic opportunity and the need to build on the legacy of the civil rights movement, echoing the main themes of the evening.
The Phoenix Awards Dinner is part of the Congressional Black Caucus' annual conference. This year's dinner honored Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Maryland); former president and director-counsel of the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund Elaine Jones; and former President Bill Clinton, who was unable to attend the event but addressed the attendees in a video.

Redhead Creamery launches Kickstarter campaign!
Redhead Creamery launches Kickstarter campaign!
Cheese curds, cow-naming rights, or a plate at an on-farm harvest meal are all available through the just-launched Kickstarter campaign by Redhead Creamery, Minnesota's newest cheese producer. Alise Sjostrom, the head redhead and cheesemaker, grew up on her parent's dairy farm in Stearns County, about an hour west of St. Cloud. While she always wanted to return to the farm, a trip to Wisconsin 10 years ago inspired her to tell her dad, "We're going to make cheese; I don't want to milk cows."
Now, in order to build a creamery on her parents' farm, Alise and her husband, Lucas, are looking for support from the community and cheese lovers everywhere. In return, contributors will receive rewards like those mentioned above, ranging from a recipe card to a personal cheese tour. Of course, cheese is also an option. Their campaign can be found at Kickstarter.com in the food section at http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/redhead/redhead-creamerys-cheese-nee....
Redhead Creamery is a partnership of the Sjostroms and Alise's parents, Jerry and Linda, at Jer-Lindy Farms. Despite a redheaded cheesemaker (and three sisters of the same shade), the new plant aims to be "green" and off the grid. Using whey leftover from cheesemaking to help power the farm, and geothermal energy to heat much of the water used in the plant, Redhead Creamery aims to be carbon-neutral or better.
Kickstarter is a crowdfunding site where people can launch or expand businesses or ideas in return for rewards. As in this case, many of the rewards are prototypes or not yet created, requiring the campaign's capital to get started. Redhead Creamery's rewards are:
$10 – a thank you on their Facebook page and website
$20 – a hand-written recipe postcard
$25 – 50 early contributors can get cheese for almost half-price
$30 – contributors' names written on cheese plant's wall of fame
$40 – a half pound of Redhead Creamery cheese
$50 – admission to a cheese class taught by "Cheese Alise"
$60 – a Redhead Creamery t-shirt plus cheese
$80 – a cow named after (or by) the contributor
$100 – Redhead Creamery clothing and accessories
$150 – Farm dinner with everything harvested from the farm
$250 – intimate tour of the farm
$500 – make cheese with Redhead Creamery
$1000 – intimate farm dinner
Despite her wishes when she was younger, Alise does enjoy milking cows today and hopes to provide the same lifestyle for their infant daughter and the ability to share it with the community. Sjostrom is teaching a community education cheese class in Sauk Centre this fall and would love to do more education down the road. The funds would cover less than 10% of the proposed project, but will allow the Sjostroms, ages 27 and 26, to gain equity in the farm business and eventually take ownership.

It's good to stare!
By Gerry Haskins-Oracle on Dec 04, 2013
Some say it's rude to stare. But that's not my experience.
I've been working on SuperCluster for 2 years now. And I've been looking intently at issues arising for SuperCluster customers, both to ensure the issues are fixed a.s.a.p. and to understand what lessons we can learn and where we can improve our products and processes.
Why ?
Well, I want every customer to have the best possible experience.
Call me naive, but I sincerely believe that ensuring a good customer experience is the best way to encourage repeat business.
So, what have I learned ?
I've been working in the Solaris customer lifecycle space for 15 years now. One thing that's always puzzled me is why, while most customers have a perfectly good experience, there's always one or two customers who repeatedly hit problems.
The reasons are often not obvious. They may be running very similar hardware with very similar software configuration and broadly comparable workloads to hundreds of other customers in the same industry segment who are not experiencing any issue.
It's easy to assume that there may be something subtle "wrong" in their set-up. Either a misconfigured network, a piece of 3rd party kit which we don't have internally to aid us reproduce the issue, 3rd party or home grown apps relying on private interfaces they shouldn't be using, even a dodgey "favorite" /etc/system setting which the customer "knows" works from their Solaris 2.5.1 or V880 days that hamstrings performance, or whatever. Occasionally, despite enormous effort, it feels like we never get to true root cause and that customer never does have an optimal experience.
More often, we do determine the root cause, which may indeed be a sub-optimal configuration but, if the system's already in production, it may not be possible to reconfigure the system and start again, so the customer experience remains compromised for that system.
Indeed, it's for this exact reason - sub-optimal customer lifecycle experiences are often due to sub-optimal initial install and configuration - that my team was asked to develop the install and configuration utilities for SuperCluster so that they are configured according to best practice right out of the box. And that's worked very well indeed.
But some issues do still arise for SuperCluster customers.
Most are when we leverage new functionality - initially Infiniband, more lately VM2 and iSCSI. These issues are found and fixed rapidly, with proactive roll-out of the fixes to the entire SuperCluster customer base.
I previously blogged that, even though SuperCluster is configurable and certainly not an appliance, we are finding Engineered Systems issues much
easier to debug, as the fixed hardware layout, cabling, protocols,
etc., dramatically reduces the number of variables in play, making issue
reproduction in-house much easier, and hence issue analysis and resolution much faster. This really helps to improve our customers' experience.
But we still see a very small number of customers (two or possibly three come to mind) who repeatedly hit issues not seen by any other.
Why is that ?
The hardware is identical. The configurations are similar. We have other customers in the same industry segment utilizing the SuperClusters for broadly similar purposes. Even with similar DB and load characteristics. We know the networking is correct - it's fixed. We know the I/O cards are in the right slots - it's fixed. We know we're using the optimal protocols, configured optimally. We even have a process, ssctuner, running in the background to check that no dodgey settings are added to /etc/system, and it'll automatically remove them if they are.
We've gone through an interesting period over the summer. In early summer, we were seeing very few issues indeed reported from our now large customer base. Then, we saw 3 customers raise issues in quick succession.
The first, in Europe, looked like an Infiniband issue. Responses would just stop for multiple seconds for no apparent reason, then restart. We actually sent two very experienced engineers on site to debug after trying to debug over shared shell was unsuccessful, and they root caused a VM2 (Virtual Memory) issue and two scheduler issues.
Almost the same week, two U.S. SuperCluster customers raised VM2 issues. Our lead VM2 sustaining engineer, Vamsi Nagineni, engaged Eric Lowe from the VM2 development team, and they determined that none of the customer issues had the same root cause.
In one case, a bank, the customers' database is not optimized for Exadata, so more of the load runs on the SuperCluster compute nodes rather than on the storage cells. Nothing overly excessive, just enough to encounter an issue not seen by other customers.
In another, a State social services provider, the customer runs a high proportion of batch processing. Again, nothing excessive, just enough to encounter a different issue not seen by other customers.
In the third, a major retailer, the customer's apps had very specific memory requirements which the VM2 algorithms were handling sub-optimally.
The outcome of this is that a number of subtle VM2 and other bugs have been found and fixed, not just for the benefit of these and other SuperCluster customers, but since the fixes are putback into generic Solaris SRUs, all Solaris 11 customers benefit.
Without the reduced variables at play in Engineered Systems, it would be extremely difficult if not impossible to reproduce, analyze, and fix such subtle issues.
So even if you don't have a SuperCluster, you can still reap the benefits.
FYI, currently most of the SuperCluster install base is running Solaris 11.1 SRU7.5 (which fixes a number of VM2 issues).
BTW: We also improved the SRU README last month to summarize the important content.
Best Wishes,Gerry.

WASHINGTON (January 20, 2013)--Chief Justice John Roberts administered the oath of office to President Barack Obama Sunday in the Blue Room of the White House in a ceremony witnessed by First Lady Michelle Obama, daughters Sasha and Malia, and a few reporters.
Mr. Obama will take the oath again on Monday during a public swearing-in at the Capitol before hundreds of thousands of people.
Earlier, the president and Vice President Joe Biden honored the nation's fallen soldiers, placing a wreath, adorned with red, white and blue ribbon, in front of Arlington's Tomb of the Unknowns.
Mr. Obama and his family then attended services at the historic Metropolitan African Methodist Episcopal Church in downtown Washington.
Biden was also sworn in to a second term earlier this morning.
The subdued swearing-in was a function of the calendar and the Constitution, which says presidents automatically begin their new terms at noon on Jan. 20.
Because that date fell this year on a Sunday, a day on which inaugural ceremonies historically are not held, organizers scheduled a second, public swearing-in for Monday.

What started as a senior project has grown into an annual tradition.
Four years ago, Krista Warner, then a local high school senior, organized a bowling tournament to support Gifford's Woman to Woman Fund with the help of her aunt, Teresa Bradley of Braintree.
Warner of Randolph is now long out of high school, but the duo continues to organize the tournament to support local mammograms in the name of Warner's grandmother and Bradley's mother, Ruth Brown. Brown had several forms of cancer, including breast cancer in 1993 and lung cancer, which ultimately took her life in 2011.
A mammogram diagnosed her breast cancer.
"If she hadn't had it, we would have lost her back in 1993," says Bradley with conviction. "That mammogram gave her another 18 years."
Following her death, Warner and Bradley renamed their tournament the Ruth Brown Memorial Breast Cancer Awareness Tournament. This year's tournament – their fifth – raised $857, which they recently gave to their local hospital.
The top fund-raiser in this year's event was Patty Grueteke. Nate Olmstead won the tournament.
Bradley thanked Valley Bowl and Bob's M & M for donating prizes as well as all of the bowlers all who participated. "It's awesome that they come out and do it. They're very enthusiastic," Bradley said, adding, "It's a good tournament. We have a good time, plus we're raising money for people who are less fortunate."
Gifford's Woman to Woman Fund pays for mammograms for low-income women not covered by other programs, such as Ladies First, and buys soft pads that go on the mammography machine to make mammograms more comfortable for all women.
"We want to encourage women to have their annual mammograms. Providing a more comfortable and more affordable experience helps substantially. We are so appreciative of Krista and Teresa for working hard each year to support this shared cause, raise awareness and bring a fun event to our community," Gifford Director of Development and Public Relations Ashley Lincoln said.
The Ruth Brown Memorial Breast Cancer Awareness Tournament is held at Valley Bowl in Randolph on the fourth Sunday in October during Breast Cancer Awareness Month each year. Bowlers of all abilities are welcome.
The tournament has raised $5,150 since its inception.

Stonestreet Stables' Dreaming of Julia stood out on a busy Sunday worktab for trainer Todd Pletcher, breezing a half-mile over the Belmont Park training track in 49.07 ahead of Saturday's Grade 1, $300,000 Mother Goose Stakes.
"Very good," Pletcher said of the work. "She's a very consistent work horse and I'm very pleased with the way she's coming into the race."
Dreaming of Julia, who earlier this year ran off to a 21 ¾-length victory in the Grade 2 Gulfstream Park Oaks, exits a fourth-place finish in the Grade 1 Kentucky Oaks, a race in which she was jostled considerably at the start.
"I think it greatly affected her," Pletcher said. "In addition to that, she kind of got back into a position going into the far turn and had to lose her momentum again. I think the combination of those two things were very costly. She's probably of the size that getting bumped in at the start like that would take her wind away a little bit. It was a pretty severe bump."
Pletcher sent out a trio of other sophomore stakes fillies for half-mile works on Sunday morning with Kentucky Oaks winner Princess of Sylmar covering the distance in 49.41 for an anticipated start the TVG Coaching Club American Oaks at Saratoga Race Course on July 20, multiple graded stakes winner Kauai Katie going in 48.47 for the Grade 3 Victory Ride at Belmont on June 29, and Fusaichiswonderful, also under consideration for the Victory Ride, breezing in 49.42.
Among other stakes horses on the training track worktab for Pletcher were Battier (4f, 50.40), likely bound for the Grade 2 Dwyer on July 6 at Belmont, and Jack Milton (4f, 48.46), who is being pointed toward the Grade 2 Virginia Derby on July 13 at Colonial Downs.
Toasting is among the fillies who could line up to face Dreaming of Julia in the 1 1/16-mile Mother Goose. Third last time out in the Grade 2 Black-Eyed Susan on May 17 at Pimlico, the West Point Thoroughbreds representative owns an optional claiming victory at the Mother Goose distance on February 15 at Gulfstream.
"We'll see how she trains the next few days; it looks like we're headed in that direction," said trainer Tom Albertrani. "She ran a good race [in the Black-Eyed Susan], she was a good third. It looked like the blinkers helped a little bit and put her a little closer into the race, and she seems to have bounced back OK."
Juddmonte Farms' Close Hatches, second in the Grade 1 Acorn on Memorial Day at Belmont, breezed Sunday for an expected start in the Mother Goose, covering a half-mile over the main track in 50.58 seconds.
Among others under consideration for the Mother Goose, according to NYRA stakes coordinator Andrew Byrnes are, Cue the Moon, Marathon Lady, Plenty O'Toole and Carnival Court.
Fields are beginning to come together for next Sunday's pair of seven-furlong New York Stallion Stakes (NYSS) turf races for 3-year-olds.
Among the fillies under consideration for the $75,000 NYSS Cupecoy's Joy Division, according to Byrnes, are Fantastic Eyes, Image of Noon, Wellspring Legacy, Frosty Bay, and Adriatic Dream.
Byrnes added that the $75,000 Spectacular Bid Division could draw Captain Gaughen, Escapefromreality, Orino, and Lightning Stone.

SNOWMASS VILLAGE - The doors have been boarded up, the signs have been taken down and the circus has moved on - at least that's what it feels like walking along the streets of the Village right now. Restaurants and shops are closed, which means the majority of people have left town to either visit family or bask on a beach somewhere, and the remaining lost souls (me included) are left to kick up the leaves and sit in hateful envy of our friends' vacations. But what if someone came up with the ultimate stay-cation to turn our colorless days into bright and shiny adventures?
OK, so bright and shiny adventures might be a bit far-fetched, but here's a self-whittled list of possible activities that those left behind in the Village can engage in so that he or she can come out of the offseason with stories, laughs and an unbeatable photo collection that is sure to one-up all the friends' vacations, no matter where or how far they go.
1. Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park: So it's not Six Flags, but for an amusement park at altitude, it's guaranteed to keep the inner child happy. Take the gondola up to the top, grab some lunch, ride the big swing, take a tour through the caverns and enjoy the day. But hurry - the park will only be open one more week.
2. El Jebowl: Perhaps the best attraction in El Jebel, the bowling alley is always a good choice, especially if the weather breaks and it's too cold for that afternoon hike. Gather some friends and make for a full-day tournament - losers buy postgame margaritas at El Korita.
3. Restaurant promenade: There aren't many options for eating in Snowmass for the offseason, so grab a date, hop on the bus and go to Aspen for a cheap night on the town. The restaurants that are open have some award-winning prix fixes that will make you feel like a king without breaking the bank, and who knows, you might even catch a free show at Belly Up afterwards.
4. Segway strut: Want to have fun while embarrassing yourself and everyone else around you? Rent a segway. These uncool robo-cop coasters beat any primped out moped, and make for a hilarious day of street cruising in Aspen - just make sure not to ride on the sidewalks or you might get a ticket.
5. Great Sand Dunes National Park: We all know how great Moab is, but this place is guaranteed to make your ears bleed. Drive three hours to the foot of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains and witness one of the most spectacular settings imaginable. Two named dunes, High Dune and Star Dune, rise more than 600 feet from their bases, making for some great photos and an unforgettable overnight stay.

A two-alarm fire destroyed a garage and a vacant house and threatened another occupied home Tuesday in South Taft.
The two alarm fire at 406 Montview was reported at 11:48 a.m. and it took firefighters more than an hour to control it.
Damage is estimated at $85,000.
There were no injuries.
An investigator was sent to the scene to determine the cause.
Five engines and a ladder truck and a total of 18 Kern County firefighters responded to the fire.
An engine and ladder truck from Taft plus engines from Taft, Fellows, Maricopa, McKittrick and Old River were used on the fire.
A large column of smoke was visible from a distance and arriving firefighters found heavy fire in both the 1,000-square foot main residence with a loft and the garage behind it, KCFD spokesman Corey Wilford said.
The fire was also spreading into dried vegetation surrounding the homes.
Wilford said the biggest concern was preventing the spread of the fire to the occupied home just north of the burning home.
The house that burned was apparently vacant, Wilford said.
A sign on front said there was no gas and a front window was boarded up, Wilford said.
There was electrical service to the home and down and arcing power lines complicated firefighting efforts.

Former Navy captain shares history of submarines
Published: Wednesday, May 22, 2013 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, May 21, 2013 at 3:56 p.m.
Bob Aldinger, a former Navy submarine captain, was the guest speaker for the GM Club last week, guiding a crowd of more than 30 former General Motors employees through the history of submarines from their origins to modern-day nuclear ships.
Aldinger commanded the USS Robert E. Lee, served on three attack submarines and two missile submarines. His career spanned three decades, from 1961 until 1991.
At Hendersonville Country Club, Aldinger discussed technological advancements, weaponry and life aboard a submarine. One of the most important aspects of being on a submarine, he said, was "the bond among submariners." The trust amongst crewmembers was key, he said, because if something happened below the water, they had to trust each other with their lives.
Another key aspect was education. The more you know about a submarine, the safer you are.
"You were going to be doing something to stop the problem," he said if something went wrong on a ship. "You had to know a lot about the ship. There were a lot of systems on the ship."
Members of the club listened intently and were ready when the question-and-answer session began. He answered questions ranging from why there aren't many women serving on submarines to how far modern missiles will travel.
"We think he was effective as any speaker we've had over the years," GM Club President Ernie Mazzatenta said. "The technical information was definitely appreciated."
For Aldinger, it's fun to go out and talk about something he's loved for a large portion of his life.
"I love it," he said. "I really enjoy it."

When I saw it at E3, The War of the Worlds didn't wow me. On second thought, maybe I saw the wrong level. Arriving on Xbox Live Arcade next Wednesday, The War of the Worlds looks to be a serious platformer, not just something whose stylized presentation of 1953 London is pretty to look at.
A news release says The War of the Worlds will pay homage "to classic cinematic platformers such as Flashback, Out of This World and Prince of Persia." While adapted from the 1953 film, it will also feature "a new story arc, characters, locations, and sub-plots."
Yes, that's Patrick Stewart you hear narrating the the story, written by Chris Fowler. The game is confirmed for an Oct. 26 release and it will cost 800 Microsoft Points.
You can see my original eyes-only impressions here.

The Trash Wang Tour, which landed in NYC this past weekend, features an odd West Coast pairing: thrash-masters Trash Talk, and Odd Future's Hodgy Beats and Left Brain, who operate collectively as MellowHype. The show led to a strange mix of audience members as well. While some fans seemed into the high energy of both acts, others derided one band or the other and even got into a brawl at one point. Moshing and crowd surfing were not in short order for either act, which is where the juxtaposition starts to make sense. Other highlights included Lee of Trash Talk having his shoes stolen while crowd surfing, Garrett the guitar player wearing a crowd member's purse on stage (someone promptly tried to steal it once he got off stage), and Left Brain wearing his sunglasses throughout the show even after one lens went missing while crowd surfing. Catch the chaos when they head back to the West Coast next month.

Tomorrow is the last day for candidates to file to run in the May 20 Primary Election.
On a local basis, the ballot includes races for Campbellsville City Council and 51st District State Representative.
The State Representative's race will be particularly interesting as incumbent Russ Mobley, a Republican, is not seeking re-election. Instead, two other Republicans - Russell Montgomery and Asa James Swan - have filed to run. No Democrat had filed papers as of press deadline for this edition.

Jay P. Morgan: Making Strobes and Daylight Work Together
This Spring, Jay P. Morgan set out with his crew to the Bonneville Salt Flats to create some surreal images. In the video, you'll see how to blend strobes with daylight so that your images do not look artificially lit. Jay P. demonstrates a method he uses to better visualize and control what his strobes are doing when the modeling lights are not bright enough to guide him.

China's Recovery Firmed Recent data all pointed to a recovery in China. GDP growth in Q3 2009 was in line with expectation, at 8.9 percent annually. This was higher than the 7.9 percent in Q2 and 6.1 percent in Q1. At the same time, other measures such as industrial production, investments and retail sales all showed monthly increases. Even China's State Council changed its tone in its official assessment in late October that economic recovery has been "consolidated." This marks a clear shift of rhetoric from months of insistence that the world's third largest economy was not yet on a solid footing. Focus Shifts to Normalization While the large scale stimulus package and asset purchases by the U.S. and UK this year have had little tangible success, China's proactive stimulus measures and loosening of credit have driven China back on its remarkable growth track. But the accommodative monetary policy has also fueled rapid investment and an asset boom, potentially leading to overheating. Thus, the resurgence of growth means that China is likely to change its focus to tightening in the coming months and start "normalizing" policy. As stressed by the State Council, managing inflation expectations will be a policy priority in coming months. We do not expect China to emulate the Reserve Bank of Australia and raise interest rates soon. Sucking in more speculative capital with higher interest rates is what China wants to avoid now. Stepping up open market operations is another option. But premature withdrawing liquidity from the system may cut short the recovery. Instead, policymakers are more likely to step up their guidance to the banks, using moral persuasion to slow down the pace of lending. Will CNY Appreciate Soon? Now that China's economic outlook has improved, the question is whether the Chinese renminbi (CNY) will be allowed to appreciate in coming months. China revalued the USD/CNY rate in 2005 and allowed it to steadily appreciate 17 percent until the middle of 2008. It then re-established a virtual peg against the USD to help cushion its economy against the impact of global financial crisis and to support the export sector. The People's Bank has maintained the CNY steady around 6.83 against the USD since January 2009. The non-deliverable forward (NDF) market, which signifies market expectation of CNY levels in the future, has started to price in an appreciation path, currently at around 2.4 percent by year-end 2010. However, it is still premature to assume a resumption of monetary tightening will necessitate a move in the exchange rate. There are strong arguments that China is not in a hurry to change its stable CNY policy in the near term. First, despite the strong growth in Q3, exports declined at double-digit rates leading to a 54 percent drop in China's trade surplus in Q3 09 from Q3 08. As China's growth still hinges on export growth, concerns about high unemployment as a result of falling export and subsequent social unrest make it difficult for the policymakers to renew CNY appreciation hastily. Second, CNY is not that weak and remains relatively strong when compared with other regional currencies, particularly those in Asia where China has substantial bilateral trade flows. According to the real effective exchange rate (REER), a measure of trade competitiveness, the CNY has appreciated 6.6 percent since July 2008, the second strongest currency in the region after the Taiwan dollar (TWD). Against this backdrop, exchange rate will be the last instrument used by China to mitigate the risk of an investment-led overheating. CNY exchange rate will become flexible only when China's export returns to a sustained growth pattern. That again will depend on a solid recovery in consumption among the major industrial countries. As such, it will be at least the second half of 2010 before China will embark on a gradual CNY appreciation path. A Stronger CNY is Not the Cure In the current economic environment, Beijing and Washington have too much to lose from a major escalation of currency disputes. International pressure on the CNY appreciation has been somewhat subdued as most major countries are counting on the emerging countries to lift the global economy out of recession. But current debate of China's balance of payments surplus solution continues to be dominated by the perceived need to let the CNY appreciate. The rationale is that stronger currency will increase prices of exports from China and curb demand from the U.S. Empirical evidence has suggested that exchange rate policy played a limited role in China's trade surplus. China's trade surplus really took off in 2005 when it more than doubled over the previous year. Up to 2005, CNY had actually appreciated 25 percent in trade-weighted terms from its 1994 low. China's large surplus with the U.S. is not simply the result of currency valuation, but rather due to other factors that give China a competitive advantage. A CNY appreciation of 5 to 10 percent per year will not impede China's competitiveness and will not solve the China/U.S. trade imbalance. The drivers of China's trade competitiveness lie in its infrastructure and the flexibility and low cost of production. Between 2001 and 2008, China experienced a productivity boom which saw output per worker almost double. During the same period, labor cost rose by a mere 42 percent, a fraction of that in the U.S. As such, U.S. companies have become heavily reliant on China as their manufacturing partner. Low cost of production has benefited many American companies and improved consumer choices as well. Trade imbalance between the U.S. and China benefits both by raising the growth potential of both regions. An effective long-term solution is to tap the high percentage of savings in the Chinese economy and increase its resilient domestic consumption. On the other hand, the U.S. needs to reduce its reliance on debt-financed consumption and improve its production efficiency.

Founded in 1979 by a small volunteer group of artists and arts patrons, the DCCA made its focus the promotion of growth and understanding of the contemporary arts in Delaware. It started in a former sheet-metal fabricating factory and moved several times, finally finding a permanent home in 2000. This location offered a 35,000-square-foot building and, once remodeled, opened with seven galleries, 26 on-site artist studios, an auditorium, a museum shop, a classroom and administrative office space.
By this time a staff was in place and both community outreach and curatorial programming expanded exponentially.
The community responded favorably to the DCCA's new location and programming efforts. The Philadelphia Inquirer described the DCCA as "one of the most innovative and prominent organizations of its kind on the East Coast," and hailed its new building as "a state-of-the-art facility that will allow it to present a broader spectrum of the art experience."
The DCCA, a non-collecting museum, currently presents nearly 30 exhibitions annually of regionally, nationally, and internationally recognized artists. In addition to the exhibitions, DCCA commits to educational and community outreach through various programs, such as Artist Residencies with underserved community groups and Contemporary Connections, a model program that fuses art with schools' core curriculum, offering fresh new ways to teach subjects such as math and science. The DCCA has partnered in some way with more than 60 community groups and schools.
The DCCA is located at 200 South Madison Street, in the historic Harlan and Hollingsworth building on the rejuvenated Wilmington Riverfront. Gallery hours are 10 am to 5 pm Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday and noon to 5 pm Wednesday and Sunday.

Fans of the late Paul Walker will still be able to see the actor in several upcoming films.
Walker was on Thanksgiving break from shooting "Fast & Furious 7" in Atlanta when the Porsche he was riding in crashed in Santa Clarita on Saturday. Universal Studios, which releases the popular car racing franchise, was not commenting Monday on the status of the shoot, but it is believed that the sequel is about halfway through production.
Discussions about rewrites and working the remainder of the shoot around Walker's absence are reportedly underway. The film had been scheduled for a July 11, 2014 release.
Two other movies that the actor had completed should come out before then.
In fact "Hours," an indie production set during the chaos of Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans, will hit theaters and Video On Demand on Dec. 13.
"It's something that we certainly debated over the weekend, and ultimately came to the conclusion that Paul was so immensely proud of the project and he wanted people to see the movie," said "Hours" producer Peter Safran. "We felt this was the most respectful way to move forward."
"We spent the weekend talking about what the best thing was to do," added Paul Presburger, CEO of Pantelion Films, which is distributing the movie. "You know, do we pull the release? We contemplated everything. It came down to, this is the plan that we put in place with Paul, we were moving forward and he was supportive and excited about the plan, and we felt that the best way to move forward was just to continue with that plan."
"Hours," in which Walker plays a father trapped in a storm-hit hospital with his prematurely born baby, has been scheduled for the Dec. 13 release for at least six months. It will be playing in one theater in each of 15 U.S. markets. The studio has no plans to change the film's promotional materials, which like its playdates were locked-in before the actor's death.
Another Walker film, the French-produced, English-language action thriller "Brick Mansions," did not have a release date before the weekend. Although all of the actor's scenes have been shot, the movie is still in post-production. Like at Universal, discussions are going on at "Mansions'" U.S. distributor, Relativity Media, about how best to proceed. An early 2014 release seems most likely.
"We are shocked and deeply saddened to learn of the sudden death of Paul Walker," Relativity president Tucker Tooley said in a statement put out over the weekend. "Paul was an incredibly talented artist, devoted philanthropist and friend. Our hearts go out to his family and our thoughts and prayers are with them."
Distributors walk a fine line when faced with releasing a movie after a beloved actor has recently died. They need to be seen as neither exploiting nor dodging the terrible fact, and display the right degree of sensitivity in advertisements and timing.
"There's the conundrum of how to deal with the tragedy of the death and honor the family and friends and those grieving toward their loved one," observed Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst for Rentrak, a global media measurement company. "And also, formulating a strategy on how to deal with the release of the upcoming movies, how the fans might react to those movies and the marketing of those movies. It presents quite a challenging situation."
Recent examples indicate that an actor's death can have a positive — or, at least, not detrimental — effect on his or her remaining films' box office performances. It's widely believed that Heath Ledger's passing contributed to "The Dark Knight's" extraordinary popularity, and "Enough Said," the first release featuring James Gandolfini following his death last June, is one of the biggest indie hits of the year.
It's too early to say whether Walker's death has triggered a spike in rentals, streaming and downloads of his previous films, but if the run on "Sopranos" episodes following Gandolfini's passing is any indication, that's a likely scenario. As of Monday afternoon, Universal Studios Home Entertainment was still planning to release the "Fast & Furious 6" DVD and Blu-rays on Dec. 10 in North America; the hit summer spectacular is already available to own on digital.
"I think people have the need to see our favorite actors as we know them, on-screen," Dergarabedian mused. "I think there's just this inherent need that's part of human nature. Of course, it's a bittersweet situation because you know that person is gone. But at the same time they live on on the movie screen.
"And I'm sure that most actors would want that. They'd want to be honored by not hiding them away once they've passed away, but by celebrating them as they were by seeing their movies."

Skiers and snowboarders enjoyed the fresh snow that fell throughout the week at Arapahoe Basin Ski Area Saturday. Music emanated from speakers throughout the mountain base. Flags flapped in the wind and barbecue smells wafted through the air. Many ski enthusiasts wore fun colors and costumes, and Smokey Bear gave out high fives and hugs.
Saturday was the ski area's Save Our Snow event. Each ticket holder got a $10 discount, and $20 of each ticket sale was donated to the High Country Conservation Center.
"This is a great fundraiser and a great promotional event, and it's our fifth annual so we are hoping to keep it going for lots of years beyond today," said Cassidy Callahan, A-Basin's environmental coordinator.
"We also wanted to share what we are doing in our sustainability programs with our guests, and we have a lot of partners in the community who are sustainability-minded," said Sha Miklas, A-Basin's guest services and environmental manager.
"We wanted to give them an opportunity to share what they are doing," she said.
At the base of the mountain, in a "green village," mountain employees sold raffles, and representatives from a handful of different local companies and nonprofits shared their sustainability initiatives with guests.
Matt Gonzalez came to the event to promote the ski-oriented carpooling website Alpine Source.
"We help people find rides up and down the mountain to get less traffic out there, help the environment and save the snow," he said. "We've been getting a lot of people coming by and having fun. Everybody seems excited to be here."
At a nearby booth, representatives from forest groups took the opportunity to educate guests about different areas of environmental education.
"A-Basin has a longstanding commitment to sustainability," said Jessica Evett, the executive director of Friends of Dillon Ranger District. "The ski areas in general in Summit County do support groups like ours to connect with guests and get the word out about what we do at a local level, which I think is really critical," she said.
Kristin Adkins, of Wheat Ridge, took a break from skiing to take her 4-year-old daughter Harper to a booth learn about local wildlife and to touch animal furs.
"She is fascinated by wildlife and I want to expose her to as much Colorado wildlife at an early age," Adkins said.
The ski enthusiast said she enjoyed the opportunity to mix recreation with environmental education.
"This is what makes Colorado so special and especially Arapahoe Basin. It's a gem in terms of Summit County ski areas because of things like this. It is accessible and very family friendly," Adkins said.
A-Basin employees used the opportunity to share their sustainability initiatives with guests at the event. The ski area has a waste-reduction program that involves composting and recycling, and it offers sustainability guidelines for its staff so employees can make environmentally friendly choices.
"All of the disposables that we have to have we try to make compostable or recyclable," Callahan said. "We limit the amount of disposables we have to begin with by offering reusable cutlery and tableware. We also do compost in the back of house and with our guests."
At Saturday's event, volunteers informed guests what can be composted and recycled.
"By offering those different streams for our waste to go, it limits how much waste goes into the landfill," Callahan said.
The biggest impact Saturday's event will have on the future of sustainability is through the funds raised for High Country Conservation Center, event organizers said.
Both Miklas and Callahan have been personally impacted by HC3's work.
"The conservation center is what got me into sustainability. I started volunteering for them years ago and they are very inspirational," Miklas said.
Today, she serves on their board of directors.
The two said they were thankful that A-Basin's upper management was willing to host Saturday's sustainability event.
"A lot of times environmental stuff will sort of fall under the table at many ski areas because they need to focus on the revenue. But our mountain really focuses on it and makes it an important part of our initiatives here," Callahan said. "I don't think you will find any other mountain out there that will dedicate an entire day to the environment and to the positive changes we and our guests can make on it."

Hi all,
I have searched forums for some hours trying to troubleshoot 2 problems but to no avail.
I am running Mac OS X 10.7.5. I have been running PMS 1.50 for many months with no issues. I recently updated Java to Oracle version 7u21 and soon after noticed problems with PMS. I have reverted back to Apple 1.6.0_45 after reading the forums but the problems remain. I have verified that the correct Apple version of Java is running.
Problem 1: When 1.50 first starts up I get the message "No renderers found". After some time if I click on "restart server" it then detects the renderers and operates correctly.
Problem 2: In trying to troubleshoot the above problem I tried installing later versions including 1.72, 1.80 and 1.81. All of these versions start in the dock and run for 5-10 seconds before crashing out. The main GUI does not load - and again there is no debug.log file. If I go back to 1.50 the program will load but then I am back to Problem 1.
I have been trying to find the debug.log file following the advice in the forums for finding this file. However under all the PMS versions - there is nothing in the trace screen and no debug.log file is produced on the mac in the appropriate location.
I have done all the obvious things including reboots, re-installs, checking network and firewall connections, reverting back to Apple Java and searching the forums .. but I am now stuck!
I know that this does point to Java issues, but the Java version does appear to be now correct.
Any suggestions will be appreciated!

The Morton County Sheriff's Office has seized 119 horses after finding 96 dead horses at a ranch north of New Salem over the weekend.
Sheriff Dave Shipman tells The Bismarck Tribune (http://bit.ly/UzwTBH) there's adequate feed and water for some of the horses and they will be cared for on scene, but those in bad condition will be removed from the ranch.
The state's attorney's office will be considering whether to file charges in the case.
Authorities did not identify the ranch owner. Shipman says the man is retired and "just got in way, way over his head." He says the man is cooperating.
State Veterinarian Susan Keller says recent cold weather likely played a big role in the high death toll, along with a lack of adequate food and water.
