Patio season isn't over in Sioux Falls at least not until there's a frost on your beer glass.
Restaurants, eateries and bars across Sioux Falls are stocking their patios with space heaters to extend patio season this year. The decisioncomes from demand for more outdoor diningdue to COVID-19 precautions.
While residents have flocked to patios this summer, several eateries are using their outdoor space to accommodate guests without having to close their indoor dining space.
Some die-hards might keep topatios until the snow starts flying, but owners just hope space heaters will extend outdoor dining for about another month as the temperature drops to the 50s and 40s.

Barrel House:The east-side bar and restaurant keeps its patio open year-round, said owner Mike Fonder. Permanent overhead heaters keep the area warm, and several tables with fireplaces are placed throughout the patio. The features will extend patio season into November for Barrel House, Fonder said.
Bread and Circus: The restaurant installed two 20-foot overhead heaters for its patio space in May. Its owners are also hoping to install temporary walls around its patio to limit the amount of wind in the area.
Carino's: The patio at the Italian restaurant will remain open with three large space heaters and a stone fireplace for as long as able. The area isn't sheltered from wind, though.
Falls Landing: The riverside restaurant installed a few 8-foot tall space heaters around its patio last week after customers suggested the additions. Management hopes to keep the patio open for as long as people want to sit outside.
Icon Lounge: A new space filling what used to be the Icon Lounge will be opening in a few weeks, owners say. The restaurant will use space heaters to extend patio season.
Look's Marketplace: It was difficult for the market and restaurant to find space heaters, due to a national shortage, said partner Beau Vondra. But the restaurant filled its patio with seven space heaters to accommodate customers for as long as they're willing to sit outside.
Mackenzie River: The restaurant and bar has had permanent overhead heaters installed in its patio area since it opened. Manager Austin Whitley believes patio-goers can comfortably use the space through the end of October.
McNally's Irish Pub: The pub's patio would usually be closed by this time of year if it weren't for space heaters warming up customers, said assistant manager Taulant Selamani. The heaters should help customers sit comfortably into 40-degree weather, he said.
Pave: The downtown bar patio has several tables with fire pits and a few space heaters.
Remedy Brewing: The brewing locale has two space heaters filling their patio area and plan to fill the space with more. They're keep space heaters out as long as people are brave enough to weather the snow.
Roam Kitchen and Bar: Space heaters and fire pits allow the restaurant to extend its bar season. Guests flocked to the patio in early spring when the temperatures were rising to the mid-30s, said manager Joe Jirele. The heaters should help extend patio season by about a month.
Vinyl Taco Social Club: A fire pit sits outside the restaurant and four space heaters fill the patio of the Vinyl Social Club. The heaters will help customers withstand the cold into late fall or into the lower 50s, said co-owner Kirk Keupp.
Eateries with extended patio season plans still in the works: Crave, Fernson Downtown, WoodGrain,
Eateries not providing heated patios:22Tek Kitchen Cocktails, Falls Overlook Cafe, Granite City, M.B. Haskett, Ode to Food and Drinks, Parker's Bistro, Phillips Avenue Diner, Queen City Bakery, Sickie's Garage, Tinners Public House and The Willows at Willow Run

Mr. Sinsteden had his spanking new digs made to order, but even humble lawn-mower huts are becoming remote offices in the pandemic. Call them Sanity Sheds: reprieves just beyond the walls of home.
Between June and Sept. 1, searches for sheds doubled on Wayfair.com compared with the same period in 2019. Custom garden-house builder Hillbrook Collections reports orders up 60% year-to-date, compared with 2019. And in the last six months, NEO Builders in Los Angeles saw 250% more interest in their accessory dwelling units," or ADUs, habitable backyard buildings. (California loosened zoning restrictions on such structures Jan. 1, perhaps precipitating the surge).
Transitioning to WFH has been harsh for many, but humans have toiled at home for centuries. For a long time, we worked where we lived. Im talking about agrarian [ways] and people who lived above the shop," said Daniel H. Pink, who studies human behavior in business and wrote When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing" (Riverhead Books). In the U.S. after WWII, he said, work and family became distinctly different domains. Now tech and, in part, Covid are remerging those worlds. But I think people dont want them together 24 hours a day," Mr. Pink added. So theyre looking for a soft separation between their work life and family life." An unconnected space helps ensure quiet and tucks away the nagging ephemera of office lifeto-do lists, computers, cordswhen youre off the clock.
Syncing your new outbuildings style to your homes exterior look is wise and may entice buyers when you go to sell the place. For what he calls his dollhouse, built in May in St. Petersburg, Fla., designer and home economics expert Joseph Marini opted for hipped roofs to match his brick Georgian-style main house. On the inside, however, he indulged his dcor fantasies with decoratively roped millwork and limewashed built-in desks. I really love Swedish furniture and anything Gustavian, so I tried to mimic that here in a small space I could keep cohesive."
Jill Vukelja retrofitted a heated Victorian-inspired greenhouse near her Georgian-style Greenwich, Conn., house. With three daughters learning remotely, the stay-at-home mom finds refuge there for her quarantine hobby: watercolor painting. Its a mini-escape...even when it rains its nice to just sit there and hear the rain banging on the glass."
In revamping the space, her designer, Marcia Tucker, proposed simple, easy-to-source additions: a hunter green IKEA desk on birch trestle legs, a gray synthetic wicker chair. Ms. Vukelja swapped out leafy greenery for succulents and cactuses that wont wither, die and cause her additional stress.
Upcycling your own otherwise-unused possessions works as well, said Charleston designer J.P. Horton, who just recast an ADU on his mothers property in Charlottesville, Va., into a pottery studio for her. We repurposed a garage-sale rug and antique chairs that were my grandparents and didnt fit in the [main] house," he said.
Perhaps to erase the dingy pasts of existing garden sheds, many designers paint their interiors white. On walls and between the chestnut ceiling beams of her little saltbox outbuilding, a late-1700s structure about 300 feet from her home in Weston, Conn., interior designer Chris Roughan turned to Benjamin Moores Super White. In her new home office, a respite from the chaos of 10-year-old twins and a husband working remotely, she drafted both table and task lamps. The white walls help bounce the light the lamps cast and brighten the space. Thats really important because theres not a lot of downlighting," she said.
While Mr. Marini painted his vaulted ceiling black so it recedes and makes the 10-feet-by-12-feet space feel larger, his interior walls sport a creamy off-white. I really prefer darker, moody rooms," he said. But for a workplace, that starkness keeps you alert and vibrant and bright and aware." After his 74-year-old mother moved into a first-floor bedroom as Covid-19 descended, he also began using the place as a hideout from his now-full house. Under the firelight of a rust-finished candelabra that had no place in the main dwelling, my husband and I sit and have a cocktail around five oclock and talk about the day. It makes a nice separation, almost like going out to a bar."
Mr. Marini hired an architect to draw a rendering of his outbuilding, then had a seasoned shed builder construct it (total cost: $7,200). But ready-made options are proliferating. Starting at $500 a month, you can lease a glass-walled 8-feet-by-10-feet pod from ootBox, in Columbus, Ohio. A modern Mono Mini cabin from Alberta-based DROP Structures arrives with a sturdy standing-seam exterior and extremely hygge Baltic- birch interior (from $18,900).
To ensure Wi-Fi access, you may need to amplify your homes router with a booster or extender. Other logistical considerations include permits, specific to local jurisdictions. The hoops youll need to vault through will likely increase with every nicety you want to add, from electrical wiring to a plumbed bathroom. Said David Latimer, CEO of Nashvilles New Frontier Design, whose business has jumped 300%-400% year over year, Its the same process for a 5,000-square-foot-house as a 450-square-foot one."
Another virtue of working from a Sanity Shed: The reintroduction of a (beautifully brief) commute. Even a quick stroll through dewy grass offers an energy reset, injecting fresh air in a workday with every coffee refill or bathroom run. Human beings need transitions," said Mr. Pink, who works in a revamped garage a 22-step shuffle from his door. Human attention is precious, and its not infinite. It needs punctuation marks," he said. Without them, our attention becomes an incoherent run-on sentence."
PEAK RETREAT
A guide to kitting out a garden office for maximum comfort and productivity
EVERYONE from Mark Twain to Pink Floyds Roger Waters worked in their garden sheds. To ready your own Sanity Shed for maximum output and minimum headaches, try this design advice from the pros.
Look down. Install a hard-wearing option underfoot. Max Sinsteden selected stained fir for his Westerly, R.I., retreat because he knew his feet would be a little dirtier out there." In St. Petersburg, Fla., designer Joseph Marini chose engineered hardwood that can stand up to being muddy and wet but has a great stained-gray look to it." If youre carpeting, choose durable material like sisal and wool, said interior designer Chris Roughan, in Weston, Conn.
Conscript salvage. To get ample light into his workspace, Mr. Marini reused 1950s French doors from a house hed recently flipped. I thought, What a perfect way to do floor to ceiling windows in here!" Charleston designer J.P. Horton, too, argues for employing castoffs. I dont want it to be a catchall for garage-sale stuff, but its a good place to be creative."
Get green. The number one thing you can do [to improve an outbuilding] thats inexpensive is add plants, which seems trivial, but living things help a lot," said Mr. Horton.
Mind your purpose. Mr. Marini displays his collected horde of antique iron urns and footed vases on his sheds built-in shelving, but he left one wall entirely blank as a giant work board" for organizing notes on projectsadhered with cobalt painters tapeto keep him on task, and it works. Ive really been out here every day."
PRE-FAB PODS
You can hire an architect and builder, or you can nab one of these made-to-order numbers
A trio of transom windows brings light into the Studio Office Shed, clad in engineered wood and a corrosion-resistant metal roof. With redwood pergola and operable window. 8 feet by 12 feet, from $10,899, heartlandsheds.com
Made in Lancaster, Pa., the Sara Folly is fitted with a shapely cedar-shingle roof topped with two copper finials. French doors give it the airy factor of a garden greenhouse. 8 feet by 12 feet, from $9,850, hillbrookcollections.com

Its that time of year, theres a chill in the air, pumpkin spice latte on your lip, and leaves to be peeped!
One of the top targets for leaf peepers from the DMV is Skyline Drive and Shenandoah National Park and for good reason. Miles and miles of a slow-paced cruise along twisty mountain views, with those yellow, orange, and piercing red leaves calling out to you and thousands of your fellow peepers.
This year, consider mixing it up and little and taking a slight detour: Make a stop in Front Royal.
Just about 90 minutes from Alexandria, and right at the top of that beautifully curvy road, is a little town that holds a lot more interesting options than you might know.
With long lines of people driving from the DC area and trying to enter Shenandoah Park from the Front Royal entrance, consider doing the reverse and entering through the Thornton Gap entrance and then heading towards Front Royal, ending up in this little town with much to do.
DINING
Pave Mint
A farm-to-street food experience in a renovated 1960s garage with an excellent selection of beers and cocktails. Currently seating outdoors in distanced covered picnic tables, this place cant be missed especially if you happen to drive by and smell whats coming out of the smoker! I went with pulled pork and brisket, and it was honestly one of the better combos Ive had in awhile. So flavorful and juicy, I even skipped the sauce...and I love the sauce.www.paveminttaphouse.com
Main St Mill
Once a fully functioning mill, this fixture right on the lively downtown Main Street, offers up family friendly comfort foods. You have a choice of distanced indoor seating or outdoor patios where you can get a home cooked meal to refuel after your drive. Pro tip: grab some of the meatloaf while its available, it will have you wondering what theyre doing back there.www.mainstreetmillfr.com
Wine and Mead:Saga Meadery and Winery
What is mead?Basically, a fermented honey and water that can be flavored with all sorts of additions.Saga is a unique spin if youre looking for something different than wine or beer, and with all the flavors, youre likely to find one you like.Choices include apple, citrus, and yes even pumpkin spice. Personal favorite was Puffs Sweet Heat with a little habanero kick!www.sagameadery.com
Craft Beer: Front Royal Brewing
The name gives it away, they dont just have good burgers.Constantly changing taps with pretty much every type and style of beer you might enjoy.Personal favorite was Aquablazer, and American IPA with good flavor and not too much bitterness.
Interesting fact:Front Royal Brewing sponsors and houses Basecamp which is a facility designed for thru-hikers/kayakers/bikers along the Appalachian Trail to store equipment, get a shower (maybe a beer), and do laundry before getting back on the trails.www.frontroyalbrewing.com
Other Things to Try
Shenandoah Valley Axe Throwing Co.
Such a fun, safe, clean place to throw axes with your friends! Because lets be honest, who wants to stand close to a guy throwing an axe at Halloween? Luckily they have Viking hats to wear and not hockey masks!www.svaxethrowingco.com
Front Royal Outfitters
Skip the whole skyline drive and get a brand new view of the changing leaves. Take a kayak, or canoe and cruise the Shenandoah river and get a unique view from the water. These guys are incredible, a fun time, very helpful, and kept everyone warm and dry. A great alternate choice! This was a highlight of my visit, and one I will do again at anytime of year!www.frontroyaloutdoors.com
Turnmeyer Galleries
Art gallery/boutique/unique item shop with lots of amazing photo work, candles, Shenandoah themed gifts etc. If youre interested in buying photos from the park, or taking a tour to learn how to take your own shots, this is worth a stop. And I thought I knew what I was doing with a camera!www.turnmeyergalleries.com

Its been a few months since Microsoft revealed the new user experience that would be coming to both the Xbox One as well as the Xbox Series X|S, but starting this week, everyone with an Xbox should finally be able to check it out for themselves. The October 2020 Xbox One Update has begun to roll out to the general public, which means that when you next power on your Xbox One, you should be able to install it if it didnt install automatically.
If your Xbox looks the same as it always has when you turn it on, head to the home screen and push the Xbox button on your controller. Go to Settings > System > Updates & downloads. Select the first option. Once the new updates been installed, youll notice that the entire UI has been redesigned from the ground up.
This isnt the most drastic visual overhaul that the Xbox One or 360 user interface has ever received, but it is a major improvement over the old UI. Its sleek, modern look can be attributed to a variety of changes, from the new font that appears on the home screen and within menus to the tiles with rounded corners.
One of the key features of the Xbox UI is customization, as you can easily add and remove elements from the home screen. Microsoft has increased the customizability of the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S by adding Customer Profile themes in the October update. If you head to your profile, you can pick a theme that will appear in the background of your profile. There are several already available, including a few Series X and Series S themes.
Microsoft also focused on quality of life improvements, such as the new sign-in experience. Unless you have an Xbox set up to log you in automatically, you will now be greeted by a new screen when you power on the console. So rather than going straight to the home screen, your Xbox will ask you Whos playing today? and prompt you to choose any of the accounts you have logged into on the console, or create a new one.
Finally, the October update adds support for four more languages: Hungarian, Greek, Slovak, and Czech. If you want to choose one of the new languages, head to Settings > System > Location > Language and pick from the list. This is a great addition for those regions right before the Xbox Series X and Series S launch.
Speaking of which, the $499 Xbox Series X and $299 Xbox Series S launch on November 10th.

On November 5, people across Great Britain celebrate Guy Fawkes Night with bonfires and fireworks. Centuries after his failed attempt to blow up the British Parliament, Fawkes's image remains prevalent in popular culture, thanks to films like V for Vendetta (2005). Here are 10 fiery facts about Fawkes and the holiday his treasonous attempts inspired.
Guy (also known as Guido) Fawkes was born in 1570 in Yorkshire, England. He was raised by a Protestant family, but secretly converted to Catholicism as a young man. When he was 21, he went to fight alongside the Spanish Catholics in Flanders. During the fighting, he became an expert on explosives. This, alongside his fanatic Catholicism, is what got him recruited to the Gunpowder Plot.
England became a Protestant country after the Reformation. As such, Catholics were persecuted and forced to practice their religion in secret. A wealthy Catholic named Robert Catesby decided the only solution to this discrimination was to overthrow King James I and his government. He recruited a number of other Catholics, including Fawkes, and together they plotted to plant gunpowder under the British Houses of Parliament and blow it sky-high.
The conspirators rented a cellar underneath the Houses of Parliament. Disguised as a servant named John Johnson, Fawkes began filling it with barrels of gunpowder. Once the explosives were in place and Parliament was confirmed to be sitting, ensuring the House of Commons would be full of MPs, the date for ignition was set: November 5, 1605.
Everything was going according to plan, until one of the conspirators decided to write an anonymous letter to a Catholic member of Parliament, Lord Monteagle, warning him to stay away from the Houses of Parliament on the night of November 5. Monteagle, sensing danger, showed the letter to the King, who ordered the area to be immediately searched. Thirty-six barrels of gunpowder were discovered hidden beneath piles of firewood in a storeroom below the House of Lords. Fawkes, found at the scene while armed with long fuses and dressed for his escape, was arrested.
After his capture, Fawkes was sent to the infamous Tower of London, where he was tortured until he confessed and gave the names of his fellow conspirators. Soldiers were soon dispatched to Staffordshire to apprehend Catesby, the mastermind behind the plot. Catesby and his two compatriots died in a gunfight while attempting to combat the approaching soldiers.
Fawkes, meanwhile, was sentenced to death. Treason carried the harshest punishment, and he was to be hung, drawn, and quartered. On the day of his executionJanuary 31, 1606Fawkes managed to wrestle free from the soldiers guarding him and jumped (or fell) from the gallows, fatally breaking his neck. The executioners were not going to let him escape his full punishment: They cut his dead body into quarters, then set the pieces of his corpse to the four corners of the kingdom as a warning to others.
The day of the ill-fated Gunpowder Plot was decreed a day of celebrationafter the attack was prevented, people lit bonfires to toast the King's safety. November 5 was declared a day of thanksgiving, and the first official celebration took place exactly a year after the failed Gunpowder Plot, on November 5, 1606. People across Britain gathered around bonfires and burned effigies of Fawkes.
The festivities developed over the years. It became customary for children to make a life-sized dummy of Fawkes, which they would take around their neighborhood in a wheelbarrow while asking for a penny for the Guy to collect money to buy fireworks. Huge bonfires were built in every village and town, and a Fawkes dummy would be placed on top and set alight. The traditional brightly colored firework displays represent the explosives that were meant to ignite under the Houses of Parliament.
Various songs and rhymes to help school children remember the story of the Gunpowder Plot were created, including this one from the 18th century:
Remember, remember, the fifth of NovemberGunpowder treason and plotWe see no reasonWhy Gunpowder treasonShould ever be forgot
Guy Fawkes Night (also known as Bonfire Night) is still honored on November 5 across Britain and parts of the former British Empire. Some people celebrate with friends in their gardens, while others gather in their village green, parks, and other public spaces. Bonfires are lit and effigies of Fawkes (or more often, modern political leaders or societal villains) are burned while fireworks burst in the sky. Traditionally, people feast on baked potatoes and toffee apples.
One of the most famous celebrations takes place in Lewes in East Sussex, where a number of bonfire societies, each with their own special traditions, host festivities across the city. Before the fires are lit, effigies of political figures are paraded through the town and the streets throng with people.
Numerous pictures and engravings were produced of the dramatic moment Fawkes was apprehended. His big black floppy hat, leather riding boots, and manicured mustache and beard became iconic. Centuries after the thwarted Gunpowder Plot, Fawkess image is still easily recognizable.
The main character in the comic book V for Vendetta (and 2005 movie of the same name) wears a mask of Fawkess face to keep his identity a secret as he fights against a dystopian authoritarian government. As a result, the Guy Fawkes mask has become synonymous with rebellion, and is often worn by anti-establishment protestors.
When Guy Fawkes was captured, he was supposedly holding an iron lantern to light his way in the dark cellars. Peter Heywood, who helped carry out the search of the Houses of Parliament on the night of the failed Gunpowder Plot, kept the beacon as a souvenir. When he died, the lantern went to his brother Robert, who worked at the University of Oxford. Robert gifted the iron lantern to his workplace in 1641. It was put on display at the Bodleian Librarys picture gallery, then later transferred to the Oxfords Ashmolean Museum, where you can still find it today.
Though the failed Gunpowder Plot occurred more than 400 years ago, it's still tradition for the Yeomen of the Guard to search the cellars of the Houses of Parliament before the State Opening each year. The original spot where Fawkes hid his gunpowder burned down during a fire at the Palace of Westminster in 1834, but officials still scour the existing cellars, just to be sure. However, the searches are performed more for tradition and ritual rather than security.

Under a string of new deals, the content line-up on STV Player will be bolstered by drama programmes East West 101, Striking Out and Devils Dust. They will join what the firm described as an already stellar line-up which includes the likes of Catching Milat, The Bridge and Janet King.
The catch-up window on network content has also been extended, meaning hit dramas like Des and Honour will be available on the player platform for longer.
The group is also adding 140 hours of new sport to the video-on-demand service as part of the latest catalogue expansion. Weekly football analysis shows Lifes a Pitch and The Football Review lead the new additions, alongside petrolhead-friendly titles Garage Dreams, The Racing Years and Shifting Gears with Aaron Kaufman.
STV said it had ordered a wealth of new content from distribution partners DCD Rights, Fred Media, Inverleigh and Broken Arrow.
In total, STV Player now offers some 1,750 hours of exclusive content with seven live channels. The latest programme additions follow a year of accelerated digital growth for STV, with online streams up 66 per cent year-on-year, and the number of minutes watched rising from 719 million to 1.32 billion an 84 per cent year-on-year increase.
The past year has also seen the player being launched UK-wide on Freeview Play, Virgin Media and YouView, making it automatically available in around half of the UKs 42 million internet-enabled TV devices.
Richard Williams, managing director of digital at STV, said: Its been a truly landmark year for the STV Player in which weve not only seen a surge in viewers watching the fantastic network content on offer, but also a rapidly increasing number of viewers from across the UK enjoying our diverse selection of Player-exclusive content.
Our focus on bolstering our Player-only offering is being well-received by viewers and with 1,750 hours of content now more easily accessible than ever, we hope they will continue to make STV Player their go-to destination for free on-demand TV from around the world.
A new partnership with Fred Media sees a range of lifestyle, reality and factual titles being launched, including true crime series City of Evil and The Trouble with Murder, international food series Peter Andres Greek Odyssey and Lee Chans World Food Tour, and hit Australian reality format Tattoo Tales.
Last month, STV pointed to a recovery in advertising revenues and added another producer to its growing studios portfolio after the pandemic dragged the group to a first-half loss.
Releasing results for the six months to the end of June, the broadcaster said it had seen its highest audience growth ever, up 12 per cent, with all time viewing share of 19.2 per cent. That growth had continued as lockdown measures were relaxed, it added.
While total advertising revenue slumped 20 per cent as the industry was battered by the effects of the coronavirus outbreak, the group pointed to an improving picture.

Work on the base began on Olavsvern in 1964, at which time it was seen as a vital future facility to support naval operations in the Barents Sea and surrounding areas in the event of a major conflict with the Soviet Union. Building the base, which is situated less than 300 miles from Russia, deep underground offered added defense against an initial onslaught if war were to break out.
Building the base, plans for which were initially a closely-guarded secret, was an immense undertaking for Norway and was completed with significant financial assistance from the NATO Alliance. It ultimately took 30 years for the facility to be completely finished, by which time the Soviet Union had collapsed.
Of course, it's worth noting that Norway is hardly the only country to have built large subterranean military facilities, including underground naval bases capable of accommodating submarines, as well as other warships. China's Yulin Naval Base on Hainan Island in the South China Sea is one of the best known examples, which you can read about in more detail in this War Zone piece.
However, the Norwegian government subsequently determined that the base was extraneous to its post-Cold War needs. Two years after formally shuttering it in 2009, authorities in that country put it up for sale on the open market, with an asking price of around $17.5 million. The eventually winning bid from Olavsvern Group Limited was just under $6.5 million. This was a fraction of the cost to build the base in the first place, which was reportedly some $500 million, in the end, a figure that may not fully account for inflation after construction began in the 1960s.
To add insult to injury, one of the first entities that Olavsvern Group rented the base to after that was an operator of underwater seismic survey ships that was linked to Russia's partially-state-owned energy company Gazprom. It's not immediately clear how long that arrangement lasted, but it would have been increasingly politically untenable as Norway, among others, hit Russia with sanctions after the Kremlin illegally seized Ukraine's Crimea region in 2014.
Whatever the case, in 2019, Norwegian firm WilNor Governmental Services Limited acquired a controlling stake in the Olavsvern Group and subsequently announced its intention to make the base available to the Norwegian military, as well as those of Norway's allies. Four years earlier, WilNor had received a wide-ranging contract from the Norwegian Defense Logistics Organization to provide logistics support to the Norwegian Armed Forces.
This deal with WilNor could make it relatively easy for Norwegian authorities to reopen Olavsvern and make it available to American submarines, as well as other ships. How long it might actually take for the U.S. Navy to begin operations there and what improvements or additions the facilities might need to support nuclear-powered submarines is unclear. Whether or not American submarines will actually be able to fit inside the base, or will simply dock outside, with internal areas simply providing operations and storage space, remains to be seen, as well.
NRK's report also indicated that Norwegian officials may be looking to offer Olavsvern as an alternative to above-ground berthing in ports in and around Tromso. In September, shortly after USS Seawolf's unusually public appearance the Malangen fjord, authorities in Norway announced plans to expand facilities in that city to accommodate American submarines. Local authorities have reportedly voiced concerns about the potential safety risks of having nuclear-powered submarines in their ports.
"The decision to use Grtsund harbor [near Tromso] was made after consultation with the American authorities," Norwegian Minister of Defense Frank Bakke-Jensen told NRK. He declined to confirm or deny any plans for the U.S. Navy to use Olavsvern and had also previously told the state broadcaster that the Defense Ministry reserved the right to overrule any local objections to basing arrangements.
"When it comes to Olavsvern, there is currently talk of storing equipment for the Norwegian army and HV [Heimevernet; the Norwegian Home Guard]," he added. NRK further reported that the U.S. Navy did not appear to be interested in giving up its ability to use above-ground facilities in the area, though it was open to using the underground naval base, as well.
"The U.S. and Norway have a great relationship, and our ability to use facilities in and around Tromso would provide a strategic location for our visits," a U.S. defense official had told Breaking Defense in September. "It would give us flexibility for not only the U.S. but allied countries to exercise in the High North."
The Navy is particularly interested in ways to expand its presence in the Barents Sea and the Arctic amid growing Russian activity in the region, which includes a significant uptick in Russian Navy submarine operations and the notable physical expansion of a constellation of air and other bases across Russia's territory in the far north. The Barents Sea is a major transit point for Russian submarines and other warships heading from their bases in the northwestern part of the country toward the Atlantic via the so-called Greenland, Iceland, United Kingdom (GIUK) gap.
The U.S. military's interest in the ability to operate from naval and other facilities in this general region is only likely to increase in the near future, in general, as well. The U.S. Marine Corps actually already uses another underground bunker complex in Norway, near the city of Trondheim, to store vehicles and other equipment to support rapid deployments.
This broad area has seen a large amount of military activity, in general, both on the Russian and NATO sides, in recent years. Norwegian authorities have also accused Russian forces of conducting mock attacks on its territory, including simulated strikes on a secretive radar facility in Vardo, on multiple occasions as part of exercises.
Depending on how discussions between U.S. and Norwegian officials proceed now, American submarines operating out of the caves at Olavsvern could become a new addition to the strategic equation in this region.

Modified Tata Safari. (Image source: Cartoq)
The Tata Safari is a moniker that will remain in the hall of fame of SUVs in India. After years of selling in the Indian market Tata recently pulled the plug on the car. However, a few units that customers have preserved since inception has become a ground for mind-boggling customisation and modifications. A prime example of which is what you see above.
The car that you see above is a Safari Dicor that has been extended from the back to accommodate an extra axle. And needless to say, the work looks pretty neat. Decals on the car suggest that the modifications were primarily inspired by the Ladakh Expedition Edition of the car that was unveiled at the 2014 Auto Expo.
Starting with the modifications, the car gets a new grille that has been updated to be all-black. Rest of the design continues to be in its stock form except for a few additions like the stone deflector that substantially changes the stance of the vehicle. Also new on the car are the LED auxiliary lamps that are mounted on the cars roof.
Also Watch:
The main party piece, however, remains the extended body which is now longer than the stock Safari. To accommodate the bigger body, the car gets new windows and a longer tweaked chassis. The added axle is, however, not functional.
The overall modifications cost around Rs 8 lakh. However, the car is not road legal and might get you fined. But whats the harm in keeping it in your garage right?
