If you didn’t have the pleasure of attending a screening at last year’s inaugural SUID Film Fest, I encourage you for your own sake to not let this opportunity escape you the second time round. This year the programmers have once again assembled a remarkable slate of films, many of which will be accompanied by Q&As with the directors and producers. As a film fan, it is close to utopia to have a festival of this quality here in our hometown. This year I (legally) got my hands on screener copies of some festival selections and have a few recommendations for films to check out this weekend.
Dear Citizens:
“Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all peoples cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends.” — Maya Angelou
And perhaps we can understand each other right here.
We, the members of our state and local community, ask you, the members of our state and local community, to join us in making Saturday, July 9, 2011, a milestone.
The idea of a “family game night” has gotten some traction in our house — the kids are getting old enough to keep game pieces out of their mouths and “waiting their turn” no longer incites screams or tantrums. We were at the bookstore at the mall the other day and there were a lot of games that looked pretty fun — but it was a bit overwhelming. Any suggestions for board-type games under these categories?
(1) family [includes children ages 5 and 7]
(2) party [games played with adults, but not requiring massive amounts of skill or concentration — to be enjoyed during a social, etc.]
(3) children [specifically for children to play amongst themselves (ages 5 and 7)]
I’m moving and need to set up Internet service this week. I don’t want a cable T.V. package, just solid, locally-provided Internet service. I am a telecommuter, so add extra emphasis on “solid.” I am looking for recommendations with the minor caveat that the ISP must also exceed the customer “service” provided by the large chains. Thanks!
Today is the last day to vote for the UMD community orchard in the Edy’s Fruit Bar’s contest described in this post. We are in the top 5 in the nation and on course to win a 50-tree planting paid for by Edy’s. The fruit from these trees will become a community asset and distributed free to appropriate venues. The orchard is part of the UMD Sustainable Agriculture Project, which serves as an education venue and civic resource.
Here’s the link to register and to vote for our project. I’ve been voting all month and haven’t gotten any spam from the company.
How often do you get a chance to vote for a good thing that you know is going to win? Today’s your last chance!
Lots of good shows going on tomorrow … we got one too. If you’re looking to check out some newer bands in the area come over to Thirsty Pagan Brewing in Superior for a free show.

Hope to see you there!
For the past 10-ish years I’ve had nothing to do with landlines and been strictly with Verizon and its growing nationwide dominance. I’ve been hesitant to bow to the smartphone revolution, but I think it’s about time to make the switch. Mostly because upgrading to a non-smartphone leaves me with little options for stepping up to something better than I have now.
Anyway, I’m curious about all the little places opening that seem to pop up and cater to upgrading and whatnot. Verizon proper vs. Big Blue Worst Buy Satellite Mall location, the little shops in strip malls … what’s the difference, and who’s got the better deals? Does it matter? Is there anywhere I should avoid? Help me out people!
So, my friend Matt’s got a gig @ Beaner’s on Aug 13, and he’s needing someone to cobill with. If you’re interested, you can hit me here for info, or get with him on facebook or on reverb nation.
Much obliged, peeps.
I would never consider myself a huge drinker but since I started trying to get pregnant earlier this year (and I am currently almost 11 weeks) I have missed the ability to experiment with different tastes and drinks. I’ve realized that I’m really unaware of the great non-alcoholic specialty drinks that may be floating out there in Duluth.
I’m also trying to stay away from too much caffeine, so I’ve been mainly sticking to McDonald’s lemonade or caffeine-free frappucinos from Starbucks when a sweet tooth strikes. There’s got to be something local out there to try, no? I was hoping the lovely folks at PDD had some ideas.
I’m already in love with the malts from the Portland Malt Shoppe, especially because it’s in walking distance from my apartment. Where should I try next?
I’m looking for suggestions for local lawyers who specialize in real estate law. Neighbor problems at a property line (what can and can’t be done, etc.), not contracts for buying and selling.
Thanks for your time! Now back to your regularly scheduled PDD.
I’ve got some business travel set up for Northern Colorado and Utah in late June. Any suggestions for a resort which may still be running lifts? Ideally, I’d like to find something open during the week of 20 June. Arapahoe Basin is open until the 19th – that’s the latest I’ve been able to find. Also – suggestions on renting gear verses checking or shipping? Seems that for a two day junket – one is better off just renting from the shop.
