NorShor Needs & Assessment

Jan 23, 2011 1 Comment

The Playhouse and Westlake Reed Leskosky architects are holding needs and assessment surveys on the NorShor Theatre this week. Here’s your chance to chime in.

“If you are interested in having a voice, which we highly encourage you to do, please take some time to fill out this survey. Time is of the essence on this front as Westlake Reed Leskosky will be returning next week to conduct meetings with interested groups. The survey is available here: NorShor Programming Questionnaire.

To schedule a meeting time with the architechts to discuss and voice your opinions please send an email to [email protected] with your availability. We will be scheduling times between 8am and 6pm on January 25th and 26th.”

SkatRadioh at Ochre Ghost Gallery

Jan 20, 2011 1 Comment

Ochre Ghost Gallery · Saturday, January 22nd · 6-10PM
Local artist, David Moreira (SkatRadioh), is having a gallery showing of hand screen printed poster art.

It consists of the past two years of artwork promoting local and national bands + more. Graduating soon from the University of Minnesota, Duluth, this show marks an achievement as a student and a view of what’s to come in the future. Posters and artwork will be for sale at the opening. Plus music (unknown, but probably some kind of Mike Wilson something). David will also be demonstrating the screen print process during the opening.

If you haven’t been to Ochre Ghost, this should be a great show. It’s just up from Hippie Dick’s place. Ochre Ghost plans on hosting openings every two weeks. Every two weeks!

Ochre Ghost Gallery, 22 2nd Ave. E. (715-498-2599)

PSA: WikiLeaks [.info]

Dec 20, 2010 No Comments

Just a heads up: if you’re looking for anything WikiLeaks, make sure you are NOT visiting WikiLeaks.info. That domain is owned and on a server whose IP space Spamhaus only sees hosting malware/virus software, botnet command and controls, phishing and other cybercriminal activities.

Seriously. Bad mojo. DO NOT download anything from WikiLeaks.info. And, as those wacky Russians are now experimenting with drive-by-malware and drive-by-DDoS, I would avoid that site entirely. (Yes, WikiLeaks.info even has a rebuttal against Spamhaus’ statement. Nice touch.)

Also: WikiLeaks.org is redirecting to those dastardly Russian spammers as well, so use the official IP address.

WikiLeaks IP address is: http://213.251.145.96.
Legitimate WikiLeaks mirrors can be found here.

Biggest Challenge for Journalists is Not Slanting Headlines

Nov 18, 2010 12 Comments

“Biggest challenge for Kozy fire victims is finding shelter for the long term.”

“Biggest challenge for Kozy fire victims is finding new housing.”

“Biggest challenge for Kozy fire victims is finding digs for this winter, and the future.”

“Biggest challenge for Kozy fire victims is finding new accommodations that fall within income and professional requirements, as well as meeting preferred geographical placement and/or a proximal bus lines and/or with parking (and Wi-Fi wouldn’t hurt).”

“Biggest challenge for Kozy fire victims is finding new “bad area” to set up cardboard boxes from which to commit [perceived] continued nefarious crimes and victimize the upstanding, white citizenry of Duluth.

Maybe it’s just me. Link to original story.

Dear Press Release Writers:

Oct 28, 2010 6 Comments

Please do not include the day’s date when making a press release. I know what day it is. My email tells me the date received. The file will even tell me the creation date, if I’m that interested. It is anachronistic, and it is superfluous information.

Some other modern press release style notes I made for a friend after the break:
