Odds & Ends Black bear wandered into hotel TONIGHT SUNDAY MONDAY that inspired ‘The Shining’ ESTES PARK, Colo. (AP) — A black bear wandered the lobby of the Colorado hotel that inspired Stephen King to write “The Shining.” Stanley Hotel Vice President Reed Rowley tells KDVR-TV that 300 guests were sound asleep as the bruin figured out how to open the door and climbed over furniture. A front desk supervisor captured video of the romp. Partly Cloudy. Mostly Sunny. There was no damage, but the furniture got rearranged before the bear walked out of the lower level door. The hotel in Estes Park opened in 1909. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. King wrote “The Shining” after he and his wife stayed at The Stanley in 1974.

Officials said a horse that was stabled in Hampshire County also contracted West Nile Virus and had to be euthanized. On Tuesday, the agency announced it was raising the risk level for West Nile Virus from low to moderate throughout the state. It asked people to avoid mosquito bites using repellents, wearing long pants and long sleeves and getting rid of standing water.

O’Hair has early lead at Northern Trust, Mickelson 1 behind PARAMUS, N.J. (AP) — Sean O’Hair has done well enough over 36 holes at The Northern Trust to keep alive his hopes of going home to Aronimink for more than just a member-guest tournament. O’Hair overcame an irritating three-putt early in his round by driving the 12th green on his next hole for an easy birdie on his way to a 2-under 69, giving him the early lead Friday over a pack of contenders that include Phil Mickelson. Mickelson birdied his opening four holes before dropping a few shots late in his round of 69. O’Hair is a member at Aronimink, which is just outside Philadelphia and is hosting the third FedEx Cup playoff event for the top 70 players. O’Hair is at No. 112 in the FedEx Cup and has a lot of work to do. “Just got to play some good golf to get to Aronimink, and I think the only way I can do that is just take it one day at a time and make it count,” he said. O’Hair has around this game too long — at age 37, he has been a pro for 20 years — to realize there is no point in get- ting excited. He still has the weekend ahead of him, and Mickelson and plenty of others right behind. O’Hair was at 7-under 135, with half of the field — Tiger Woods included — playing in the afternoon. Mickelson kept the ball in play and that make birdies eas- ier. His fourth straight birdie came at No. 12, the reachable par 4, where Mickelson missed a 10-foot eagle attempt. He got a little wild off the tee toward the end of his round that cost him bogeys, and then closed with a 20-foot birdie putt for his second straight 68. Mickelson is in good shape to make it through to the Tour Championship for only the second time in the last five years. It’s the week after the Tour Championship that matters to him — the Ryder Cup. Mickelson failed to make the team for the first time since 1993, though he would seem to be a reason- able choice as a captain’s pick. U.S. captain Jim Furyk makes three picks after the second FedEx Cup playoff event next week at the TPC Boston.
