It’s not likely you noticed it, but on Oct. 1 Perfect Duluth Day stopped mixing in Google-generated advertisements with the other ads that rotate over there on the right side of the page. It’s also not likely you care why, but we will explain nonetheless.
Brian Kobilka, a 1977 UMD Chemistry graduate, has won a share in the 2012 Nobel Prize for chemistry. Dr. Kobilka can be heard in an interview with a representative from the Nobel Organization at nobelprize.org.
Is there a decent local option for web hosting in the Twin Ports?
The images in this post are all from various collages in the 1921 yearbook, so unfortunately they were about one-inch-high and don’t look very sharp when blown up. In gallery form, however, they are adequate enough.
Well, here’s something. I guess it’s the next in the series of weird Duluth-related trailers. (Previous one: Duluth: A new film by Nicole Brending).
Here’s a sampling of what you have to look forward to this week on the PDD Calendar.
Have you checked out the new hobbies event tag? There are scores of regular and one off events including the premier of Munchkin Munday today at Rogue Robot.
U.S. House Representative candidates Chip Cravaack and Rick Nolan face off in a debate at the Duluth Playhouse Tuesday morning. This event is sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce and preregistration is encouraged.
Black Label Movement presents Wreck, a dance theater event, on Tuesday and Wednesday at Clyde Iron.
Renegade Theater Company presents the world premier of Ghost Light on Thursday at the Teatro Zuccone. From the mind of local playwright, Andy Bennett, Ghost Light features illusions and special effects to tell the story of four college students spending the night in a haunted theater. I read an early draft of this script and you do not want to miss this. Ghost Light runs for three weekends.
The Haunted Ship starts up on Thursday at the William A. Irvin and runs through Halloween.
The Harbor City Roller Dames start their new season on Saturday with a bout against the Minnesota Roller Girls Dagger Dolls at Pioneer Hall in the DECC.
So what are you doing this week? Can we tag along? Any upcoming events that you want to promote? Let us know!`
She made it home about midnight last night. I don’t know where she has been since we searched everywhere and she isn’t talking. She lost some weight and wants to sleep a lot. I just want to thank all our neighbors as well as the people at Friends of Animals in Cloquet and Animal Allies here in Duluth for all their kind words of support.
Does anyone know where I can recycle plastic shopping bags (besides Walmart, because I have heard a rumor that they sell them for their own profit)?
I was on my way into work this morning and I saw some young people from the Take Back Our Rez Facebook group walking along Big Lake Road on Fond du Lac Reservation. That’s like the equivalent of rush hour as it is the main artery to and from Highway 33 and I-35, lots of cars headed up and down the road on the way to work or school.
Perhaps this brief rant is more appropriate for Craig’s List, but I’ll digress anyway …
Can anyone out there tell me if we can start dropping off leaves at the Leif Erickson Park Rose Garden? Please and thanks.
An old “Where in Duluth?” post reminded me of the “Bicycle Tree” near the College of St. Scholastica. Eight years ago, or longer, a collection of bikes started growing on a tree … or whatever happened. I actually never saw it, I only heard about it. Fortunately, Tony Rogers has a whole gallery of photos from 2004.
This is a teaser for the Heck of the North short film premiering soon. It is a short documentary on the Heck of the North Gravel Cycling Classic that is held annually in Duluth.
