C
iting the absence of a “wow” reaction, the CommisBrainerd Lakes Regional Airport Commis mansion Friday rejected the two airport man ager finalists it interviewed this month. The two candidates were Neil A. Ralston of Colorado Springs, Colo., and Willard Turner of El Centro, Calif. “Neither of them wowed me enough to make an offer at this point,” Brainerd Fire Chief Kevin Stunek, a member of the commission’s airport manager search committee, said. Howard Pihlaja, a retired pilot and a memmem ber of the search committee, concurred, stating both candidates had shortcomings. “I would not feel comfortable recommendrecommend ing either of those candidates,” he said. The commission voted unanimously to inin form the two finalists they would not be offered a job. Brainerd City Council member Kevin Goedker, an airport commission member, was not at Friday’s meeting. Commission members thanked the search committee for its recommendation and for its work. Commissioner Don Jacobson said he was looking for a strong leader and he “didn’t see that in either one.” See AIRPORT, Page 14A

■ Federal judge ■
dismisses challenge
to same-day registration By RENEE RICHARDSON renee.richardson@brainerddispatch.com
A
federal lawsuit regarding voting rights, which named the state and Crow Wing County as defendants, was dismissed Friday. Federal Judge Donovan Frank dismissed the challenge to sameday registration from two conservative groups and seven individuals who contended ineligible voters cast ballots in 2008 and 2010, the Associated Press reported, drawing from a Minnesota Public Radio report. The AP reported Frank’s ruling found no federal laws were broken and the groups failed to unearth misconduct or fully pursue their case in state courts. The plaintiffs filed an appeal Friday to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit. Crow Wing County Attorney Don Ryan and Auditor-Treasurer Laureen Borden, representatives of Ramsey County, Minnesota Secretary of State Mark Ritchie and Minnesota Attorney General Lori Swanson, were all named in the lawsuit. Crow Wing and Ramsey

counties were named as having people cast ballots in the 2010 general election who were not eligible to vote. Four people, who had their voting rights eliminated with their guardianships, voted in the 2010 election in Crow Wing County. The lawsuit was filed by Minnesota Voters Alliance, Minnesota Freedom Council, Sondra Erickson, Montgomery Jensen, Ron Kaus, Jodi Lyn Nelson, Sharon Stene as guardian and friend for her son James Stene, Richard M. Smisson and Kathleen M. Olson. “We disagree with the opinion,” said Andy Cilek, Minnesota Voters Alliance president, said Friday afternoon, adding the federal venue was the proper place for the issue not the state courts. “It’s our view the judge failed to address our constitutional arguments. We filed for an appeal, a notice of appeal, this afternoon. ... This is a federal court decision so we disagree with the court.” See CHALLENGE, Page 14A

Pearl Probasco
earl Probasco rarely slept. Neighbors could see her lights well into the night. No wonder. Her work continued long after her duties in the dairy barn were done. Probasco was born Aug. 18, 1912, seven miles south of Hillman, about 40 miles from Brainerd. Her family reports she was the first white child born in Mt. Morris Township. Her parents, Peter and Emily Markusen, were second generation Norwegians from Wisconsin. As a girl, Probasco worked on the farm, did household chores, cooked, chopped wood, hunted, trapped and, when she could fit it in, went to school. Born with a well-developed work ethic, as a young woman she was already working a cross-cut saw better than any man, according to her father. She married Joy Probasco on June 15, 1932, and they raised four children — Peter, Cleo, Jay and Wayne. Her husband was a school teacher while she had the major role at the farm. It was work she relished. At 99, with just hours to go to reach the 100th birthday, Probasco rested in a chair in her Bethany Good Samaritan apartment. As a reporter thanked her for donating time for an interview, she smiled and shrugged away the See 100 YEARS, Page 11A

The group meets at 11 a.m. for lunch on the first Monday of the month at Bonanza and the third Monday of the month at the Nisswa Legion Club. They also get together for other events, such as going to a performance, picnic, card parties or whatever event meets their fancy. They’re open to anything the group wants to do. They’re each other’s support system, but in a more friendly, social way. The Widowed Friends Club has been around since 1991, when it was sponsored by AARP. Then The Center in Brainerd began sponsoring the group, but today it’s on its own and is not sponsored by any other group. Members pay a $4 membership fee. Dorothy Balken, Motley, president of the Widowed Friends Club, said there are approximately 46 members, who are age 50 or older, with the average age in the 70s. Balken said the group’s mission is to share stories with each other and to “get people out of the house.” Balken said she lost her husband of almost 53 years in 2009 and after three years, she needed something. “I needed a reason to get out and meet people,” said Balken. “My family was close, but I was looking for more, sharing stories with others like me.” Mary Graves of Nisswa, the group’s secretary, joined three years ago because she was lonesome after her husband of nearly 39 years passed away. Graves has a large family, who is supportive, but she felt like something was still missing. She saw an ad about a meeting for the Widowed Friends Club and thought she’d try it out. “The people are so nice and I met a wonderful friend, companion, my best friend,” said Graves. “I’m not lonely anymore.” Graves said before she joined the club, she tried a support group at her church, but said, “It was just too depressing.”
Pam Stenberg of Baxter, a member at-large, joined afaf ter her husband died in 2001, after 57 years of marriage. “You have to go out and face the world, otherwise you just sit there,” said Stenberg. Stenberg said she has family, but they can’t always be there when she needs them because they have their own lives. Lois Lysdahl of Pillager, treasurer of the club, lost her husband of 49 years in 2000. “I sat at home and felt sorry for myself,” said Lysdahl. “I decided to start life again and saw an advertisement about the club and came to a meeting. I felt uncomfortable, but it turned out to be the best blessing of all. When you lose a loved one and grieve, it’s nice to have others to talk to. I had to get out.” Lysdahl said since 1995, 14 people have gotten married through the club. “If you need a friend you’ll find one here,” said Balken. “There are many shared friendships here.” Stenberg said people can come join and if they don’t want to play cards, they don’t have too. Stenberg said if they just want to sit and visit that is more than OK. “We have a good group here,” said Graves. Anyone interested in joining the club can stop by and visit at one of the monthly meetings or contact Antonia Blanksma, the club’s correspondent at 825-0960.

T. CLOUD — St. Cloud State University hosted a Military Appreciation Night at Halenbeck Hall Dec. 5, as wrestlers from SCSU and St. John’s
University participated in a NCAA Division II match. “This was very exciting to be able to host a military appreciation night along with an event between the two schools,” said Maj. Jeff Nelson, Enrollment Officer with the Army ROTC Battalion. The event was sponsored by the ROTC ‘Fighting Saints’ Battalion of St. John’s, St. Cloud and St. Benedict’s Universities. The two teams were outfitted in Army and Marine digital camo uniforms to recognize the military service and sacrifice within their communities. “It’s challenging being a student, athlete and ROTC cadet at the same time,” said Teddy Erickson, Freshman Cadet with St. John’s By sTAFF sGT. AnThonY hoUseY University. “Being this Camp Ripley Public Affairs busy teaches proper time management and how to except the hard choices, it’s worth it.” The uniforms worn by the wrestlers were auctioned off following the match with all proceeds going to Toys for Tots. A silent auction organized by the ROTC Cadets raised $1,885.00 by the end of the night. A presentation was made by SCSU Assistant Coach Shamus O’Grady to Col. Dirk R. Kloss the Commander of the 84th Troop Command, for his mentorship of future leaders and support of collegiate athletics. Col Kloss, a St. Cloud State alum, also met with cadets of the Fighting Saints Battalion to share his experiences and answer questions about his military career. “It was such an honor to be recognized in front of a great bunch of young, enthusiastic people,” said Col. Kloss. St. Cloud State took control of the scoreboard right away in the match against St. Johns, as freshman Tanner Johnshoy of Prior Lake, Minn. charted a pin at 3:43 against John Wells of St. John’s. The points continued to roll in with a major decision victory by SCSU’s number two wrestler Andy Pokorny at 133-pounds. Pokorny posted a 15-1 win over SJU’s Mike Pleski to give SCSU a 10-0 lead. Taylor Lewandowski increased the Huskies’ lead to 26-0 with a 15-4 major decision against freshman Teddy Erickson of Annandale, Minn. The win clinched SCSU’s new Division II record of 48 consecutive dual wins. SCSU beat SJU 38-0 setting a new NCAA Division II record for most consecutive dual match victories.

Exploring local cuisinE
By JEREMY MILLSOP

Prairie Bay melding people and food together
he Prairie Bay staff wants you to feed them. The Baxter restaurant is taking its enthusiasm for locally grown foods and community involvement to a new level, but it needs help.
“We want family recipes,”... but we also want the family history.” said Nick Miller, general manager of Prairie Bay
Prairie Bay’s Side Dish food truck was awarded a $30,000 grant from the University of Minnesota Extension Central Regional Sustainable Development Part-
nership. That’s a mouthful, but the restaurant needs a mouthful of individual history to help with this program. Prairie Bay is asking area communities for family stories involving food. Things like a traditional Sunday meal, grandma’s famous goulash, your dad’s pierogi or polish dumplings or your aunt’s Yuca Fitters. Maybe a cousin makes a favorite Thanksgiving side dish that everyone craves —— Prairie Bay wants the story and recipe behind it. “The idea, and I’m a history major, but food and history are my two favorite things so we want family recipes,” said Nick Miller, general manager of Prairie Bay. “We want that dish you make at home that’s just killer. The one that your family goes, ‘Mom, you should have a restaurant.’ I grew up in a home where we told my mom that all the time. Those kind of stories, but we also want the family history. If it’s your family recipe and the thing you’re proud of, it probably means it’s been a
part of your family for awhile. As we get into the Amish community, the Scandinavian part, the Polish communities, there is going to be those traditions and recipes that
we’re going to want access to.” This summer the Side Dish will visit communities in Cass, Crow Wing, Morrison, Todd and Wadena counties to both support the development of sustainable agriculture and food systems across central Minnesota and to show people what to do with local produce. According to the U of M press release more than 55,000, or a third of the residents in those counties are impacted by having low access to food as determined by the USDA. The mission of the Side Dish is to address food access by visiting areas called “food deserts,” said Miller. Not only will the Side Dish be serving up its menu infused with local produce, but it will also serve as a classroom. Chefs will provide demonstrations and instructions on how to prepare the local foods grown in central Minnesota. “Think of it this way, you come up to the food truck and you have

this great salad and you want to know how we made it and where we got the ingredients. Well, we can just hand you the card and say, ‘From this farmer, who lives 20 miles over there,’” said Miller. “We’re connecting people with locally produced food. On the back end, the farmer comes up and says, ‘You do local foods. That’s cool.’ Then we give him a card for Sprout and he can call them and get connected with other chefs. We’re taking that farmer and giving him access to that network and vice versa. We’re the middle man — the marketing vehicle for locally grown foods.” It’s at these events that Prairie Bay wants your stories. Be prepared to be on video and, if you can, bring a copy of the recipe. More important, be prepared to share a little family history as well as try locally grown food prepared on the food truck. The Side Dish would like to take those recipes and have some travel with the truck to introduce the Latino population in Long Prairie to a polish dish from Pierz and vice versa. “Part of why we’re doing what we’re doing is because of the friends we have,” said Miller. “Our relationship with the Farm at St. Mathais and friendships with other people has really started to grow this network of people who really care strongly about local foods. We like it when other people come up with different ideas and take what we already do and move it to a different spot. We had the food truck and people knew we were doing that. Then they started brainstorming and coming up with cool ideas for it. One of those things we always wanted to do was cooking classes, but it’s always been too hard to do because where do you set up? The idea was born of that collaboration with different people.”

SPEC REQUIREMENTS- THE FINE PRINT The Brainerd Dispatch and Echo Publishing (DE Media) are committed to providing an excellent product to all its customers. To ensure excellence to our advertisers, DE Media has set the following advertising policies. All advertisements are accepted subject to the approval of the publisher.
DE Media reserves the right to refuse or cancel any advertisement at any time. Rates charged for advertising are for space only and do not include any compensation for the right, title and any interest to layouts, composition, material, or labor of advertisements created by and placed with DE Media. All advertisements remain the sole property of the DE Media. DE Media reserves the right to copyright any ad produced by its staff. All advertising is cash with order except when credit has been approved by the company. When credit is allowed to an advertiser, accounts are due on receipt of statement. A service charge of 1.5% per month (annual rate 18%) will be charged on accounts more than 30 days past due. In double truck ads the gutter is billed as one column. Advertising rates may be revised from time to time. Advertisers under contract will be given 30 days notice.
Advertising deadlines are set well in advance of publication to ensure an excellent product for the advertiser. Proofs for the purpose of correcting errors in production will be e-mailed or faxed to the advertiser. Proof of ads 40 column inches in size or more will be faxed or taken to advertisers on request. Once a proof is submitted to the advertiser, the advertiser takes responsibility for errors not marked on the proof. Correctness of ads submitted after deadline is the responsibility of the advertiser. However, if there is an error that is the fault of the DE Media, the ad will be rerun (or credit given for) that part of the ad containing the error. Cancellation deadlines are the same as ad order deadlines. Because of the expense involved in the production of ads, cancellations after deadline may be billed for time and materials. The labor
charge is $25 per hour. The advertiser agrees to indemnify and hold the newspaper harmless for any claims arising out of the publication of copy submitted by the advertiser. This includes, but is not limited to, claims for libel, copyright infringement and trademark infringement. Position requests will be granted, but not guaranteed, when possible and will not be considered a condition of acceptance for publications. Failure to meet these requests will not constitute cause for adjustment, refund or rerun of the advertisement, unless a positioning surcharge has been paid.
• All fonts must be embedded. • OPI cannot be used. • Any images used in your original document should be at a minimum resolution of 200 dpi. • All PDF’s created from software that supports layers and live transparencies (i.e. Adobe CS Suite, Quark, etc.) must have all layers and live transparencies flattened within the final PDF delivered to us. If this is not done we can not guarantee your transparency settings will match ours during the digital work flow. This could potentially create undesired effects in the final output of your ad. • PDFwriter is not acceptable for creating a PDF for print production. At our discretion we may occasionally choose to work with PDF’s created from Microsoft Word, Excel, Publisher, or other office applications as best we can, but can not guarantee final output. They are designed for Desktop Publishing not Print Production and typically are missing im-
portant capabilities for producing CMYK color, correct font embedding, etc. • We also will accept native files which must include all supporting fonts and graphics. Please call ahead to be sure we have compatible versions of software to open and work with the files. • Any copy not sent as a digital file will be converted digitally (scanned) and will probably suffer a loss of quality in the conversion. • If you have concerns or questions regarding any of the above please feel free to call.
Specs For Sending Ads Our preferred ad delivery format is PDF Version 1.3 (Acrobat 4 Standard). • All spot colors, RGB, etc. should be converted to CMYK prior to final PDF creation. • Due to the nature of the newsprint printing process rich black or black made up of CMYK should not be used. • Type that is overprinted should be no smaller than 5pt, type that is knocking out of more than one color should be no smaller than 8pt. • When using type at the minimum sizes take into account the fonts you are using as some script and thin bodied type may still be too thin at these sizes. • Do not use ICC or embedded color profiling as there could be a potential color shift from what you see on your screen versus what you will see on the final piece. This is due to the fact that your profiles may not match our profiles during final output causing the colors to shift to try to match our profiles.

GLOSSARY Ad Strategy
A subset of your Marketing Plan, Ad Strategy is identifying the different ad options you have and how you can use them effectively.
Audience
An Audience is a way to separate your consumer base into different categories that you can identify, target and track. Audience is important to identify when planning your marketing and evaluating your marketing’s effectiveness.
Behavioral Targeting
Campaign
A Campaign is a planned marketing effort that includes a predetermined goal, measurable progress, and clear messages. The campaign itself should have fairly clear start and end parameters to ensure that the measurable tracking is accurate.
Circulation
In print circulation, or reach of the subscribed users, is usually separated into weekday and weekend categories. For weekly newspapers there is just the one category.
By tracking an individual’s activity online, search engines and other programs are able to assign particular behaviors, that when displayed, trigger ad delivery that is relevant to that individual based on those actions.
Column Inch
Blitz
CPC (Cost per Click)
A Blitz is a short marketing campaign that is focused on accomplishing, or promoting, a particular product or event. For example: if you have a sale coming, you may consider a blitz to create top of mind awareness for potential customers.
Brand, Branding
Your Brand is what consumers identify you as. Your Brand is a vital part of any marketing that you do and care should be taken to maintain your Brand integrity.
Budget
Refers to not only your dollar investment, but also your time. While some time can be offset by increasing dollars (outsourcing ad design for example) time should certainly be considered.
Bundle
In print advertising the size of an ad is determined by its column inches. A column inch is the width of one column and one inch in height. This is a comparison you can use to determine the value (subjective) of each click your ad receives- for example: if you have 10 clicks and it cost you $100 then your CPC is $10. See also PPC
CPM (Cost per Mille)
Cost per Mille, or Cost per Thousand, is used to calculate the cost of impressions. Basically, for every 1,000 times your ad is shown (impressions) it will cost you a set amount. For example: if a certain online ad size has a CPM of $10, it will cost you $10 for every 1,000 times your ad is shown.
Demographic

GLOSSARY Fragmentation
This occurs when traits of your audience change and cause new groups, or subgroups, to be formed. It is important to keep track of fragmentation in order to maintain your marketing’s effectiveness.
Goals
Your marketing plan needs to have well defined, realistic goals. If you don’t have these it will be difficult to measure the actual effectiveness of any marketing you do. For example: I want to drive traffic vs. I want to increase unique users by 5%.
Impressions
An Impression refers to each time an ad is displayed. For example: if you had 100 impressions, that means your ad was shown 100 times.
PPC (Pay per Click)
An ad model where instead of paying for a guaranteed number of impressions, you instead bid on each available impression and then are billed based on that.
ROP (Run of Press)
Run of Press simply means that a print ad can be placed anyplace that is convenient for the printer.
SOV (Share of Voice)
Share of Voice guarantees the frequency of your ad compared to other ads in that same category, either by size of ad, or section. An SOV campaign emphasizes the overall percentage of views rather than a set number of impressions. For example: an SOV campaign would be a purchase of 50% of total estimated impressions; whereas a CPM campaign would be based more on budget and available impressions.
Target Marketing
Identifying unique audiences and marketing to them directly is called Target Marketing. This is an ideal way of marketing, as it will help reach existing, new and potential customers. Target marketing can be accomplished in a number of ways, from audience knowledge to specialized programs that can assist you in identifying your audiences.
TOM (Top of Mind Awareness)
Top of Mind refers to the idea that your brand/ product/company is the first thing a potential customer thinks of when they have a relevant need. For example: TOM is accomplished when someone remembers your ad for financial planning as they are thinking, or speaking with others about retirement plans.
Tracking
Run of Site is similar to ROP except it refers to online advertising. Run of Site simply means the ad runs in rotation in a certain size across the entire website.
Throughout your marketing campaign you need to establish progress by tracking your results. To do this effectively, your tracking methods need to have easily defined, objective goals that you can quantify.
Social Media
Unique User
ROS (Run of Site)
Social Media is made up of any series of networks that consumers use to interact with each other. Social Media is a way that business can interact with their customers to create more personal interaction.
Unique User refers to the number of different devices that have accessed a website. Typically identified by IP address, unique user information is useful for identifying audiences and device access.
