\"That's (less than) 10 bucks just for me, but times me by 200 people and there's some money there. What's happening with that money? It's completely unaccounted for,\" said [Kris Hanson]. \"I'm not aware of rounding down. We're not out to do anything like that. I find that hard to believe,\" said [Gary Daniels]. \"It was more like six cents, three cents.\" SIGA officials refused to divulge the number of Dakota Dunes' patrons, saying it will issue a news release later in the week. The casino was caught off-guard by the overwhelming numbers, says Daniels. At times during the opening, the voucher-redemption terminals wouldn't pay people their earnings, saying there were insufficient funds in the machines. Daniels says the machines had cash in them, but they wouldn't pay out when the number of coins was running low. Those machines are being monitored more closely, he says.

A power outage that crashed several computers at Dakota Dunes Casino is just one of a few \"hiccups\" experienced at the province's newest casino, its general manager says. \"That's (less than) 10 bucks just for me, but times me by 200 people and there's some money there. What's happening with that money? It's completely unaccounted for,\" said [Kris Hanson]. \"I'm not aware of rounding down. We're not out to do anything like that. I find that hard to believe,\" said [Gary Daniels].

ENERGY SAVING TIPS: Joanne Morin, climate change and energy program manager for the state Department of Environmental Services,...

The wrong side of a sudden-death scenario is an awful way to finish a season, but in pushing the defending champions to double overtime after an embarrassing end to Game 1, Burlington showed that it belonged among the best teams in the state. The Red Devils, a near-unanimous choice for the Super 8, went past the play-in round for the first time in school history, and were considered the best public school team in the state for most of the season.

That doesnt mean his group hasnt been getting ready. Washington landlord/tenant law still says you can declare your property no-smoking and thats that, [Lyn Ayers] said. He has been encouraging local landlords that have no-smoking policies to write pot into that paperwork. Many rental agreements specify tobacco but stop there; others ban smoking in general. Ayers has been encouraged by Clark County Public Health, which promotes smoke-freedom everywhere, including private homes, according to program manager Theresa Cross. Cross is accustomed to taking complaints from both tenants and landlords about drifting secondhand smoke; now, complaints about marijuana smoke are starting to enter those conversations, she said. [Kris Hanson] of VHA said: If it is an e-cigarette, that is a new issue that we havent really had any complaints about and havent developed a policy around. Cigarette smoke has a costly impact on unit interiors, but Im not sure if there are any residual effects from e-cig smoke. Due to the lack of traditional smoke emitted from an e-cig, it will be difficult for other residents or staff to detect whether someone is engaging in this activity.

Now that the Madison Muskies are no longer a link in the Oakland Athletics' minor league chain, [Tom Knickerbocker] -- a former Prairie du Chien athlete -- is content to stay out West. Knickerbocker, a 6-foot-4 left-hander, has generally made the best of it since graduating from Prairie du Chien in 1993. After two productive seasons at Kirkwood Community College in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, the Athletics selected him in the ninth round of last year's draft. Knickerbocker affirmed Oakland's faith in him with a strong season at Scottsdale. In seven starts and 10 appearances out of the bullpen, he went 4-3 with a 3.92 ERA and showcased a quality knockout punch by striking out 40 batters in 43 2/3 innings.

Although some designers such as Donna Karan and Louis dell'Olio for Anne Klein are pushing the kind of soft, pale colors you might find on the underside of a seashell or a pond pebble, several local retailers say their customers are seeking out the best of the brightest, as though color might ward off winter doldrums. Jan Ingwalson, owner and president of Jan's of Wayzata, says her clients aren't interested in barely perceptible colors; instead, they want \"a lot of pink, purple and kelly\" along with the old standbys, black and white. At Fawbush's in Calhoun Square, they're looking for little embellishments, whether on jackets or T-shirts, said sales associate Kris Hanson. Brightly patterned bomber jackets also are leading the pack in resort trends at Schlampps in Uptown Minneapolis, according to owner and buyer Lois Schlampp.

[Julie Hennessy], 25, calls Lewiston home and owns a degree in education from Minnesota. She won the Women's State Amateur in 1987 and won two college tournaments with the Gophers. Hennessy spent two years playing the mini-tour, including a year in Europe. She won two events during that time, but that success has not carried over to the LPGA Tour. Her best finish is a tie for 32nd, she has missed the 36-hole cut 17 times, and she is 145th on the money list with $6,338. But she is far from downbeat. [Peggy Kirsch], 32, a native of Duluth, is golf's answer to Will Rogers. She hasn't met anybody she doesn't like. After graduating from Alabama, Kirsch spent six long years playing in mini-tour events and the Futures Tour before getting through the LPGA qualifying school last October. Her rookie season has been a struggle; she has played in 22 events but has made only $5,704. Kirsch reached the semifinals of the U.S. Amateur in 1979 and won two college tournaments while at Alabama. But she has tasted little success on the LPGA Tour. Her best finish is a tie for 31st, and she has missed the 36-hole cut in 17 tournaments. Somehow, she remains as bubbly as ever.
