The Wisconsin Center has been called one of the most "technologically elite" convention facilities in the entire world, and that technology also extends to the UW-Milwaukee Panther Arena and Milwaukee Theatre. Besides being advanced, the technological resources in Wisconsin Center District facilities are characterized by abundance, with connections and power readily and plentifully available in almost all locations on the premises.
A variety of information technology services integrating Voice, Video and Data communications are available in all Wisconsin Center District facilities. The majority of these are made possible by the District's infrastructure of fiber optic and high speed copper cabling. The Voice Network centers on an Avaya digital PBX. The Data Network is designed with a Gigabit backbone and Switched Fast Ethernet ports throughout the building. Internet connectivity is supplied via our world class 200Mb per second Ethernet connection.
The District's impressive information technology capabilities are supported by a highly qualified, professional staff that know the systems and are committed to maximizing customer value by providing exceptional service and advice.
Since the world of information technology is evolving almost daily, please consult your Event Services Manager for the most up-to-date information about services, equipment and rates.
Data Networking
The Wisconsin Center's data network architecture consists of a Nortel Gigabit backbone and switched fast Ethernet to every port in the building. This solution, provided by SynerComm and Nortel, allows for the creation of Virtual Isolated Networks to provide the highest level of exhibitor security. Monitoring and reporting are accomplished by our internal staff via (9) levels of RMON. We can internally extend ISDN to exhibitor booths or meeting rooms for dial-up connections to the home office that are just as fast and reliable as being there!
Wi Fi
The Wisconsin Center has FREE Wi-Fi everywhere throughout our building. It is intended for "Light-use" Wi-Fi with a speed of about 256 Kbps (upload & download). If it is not fast enough for your event, we also have Fee-based Wi-Fi with very fast speeds (priced at prevailing rates), that can be configured anywhere you would need for your event.
Internet Connectivity
Our facilities boast a 200Mb per second Ethernet connection to our Internet Service Provider, TW Telecom. What does this mean? It means Internet connections up to 66 times faster than typical "high speed" T1 Internet connections! For business purposes, it means remote connections to the home office as fast as your company's Local Area Network can offer!
Fiber Optic Cabling
The world's fastest transmission medium is the backbone of our data network infrastructure. We can supply you with dark fiber for use with your own electronics, or we can supply the light source. All fiber optic cabling is terminated with industry-standard SC connectors.
Copper Cabling
The Wisconsin Center's data network is cabled with Category 5, Level 7 high-speed copper wire. This cabling is rated for Gigabit speeds for unlimited bandwidth needs.
Information Technology Exhibitor Solutions

Voice Communications
Focused around our Avaya Digital PBX, we can provide the highest quality of voice communications on the market, provide on-demand billing and troubleshoot problems instantly.
Telephone Service
Local telephone service in District facilities is supplied by TW Telecom. To assure uninterrupted voice communications, TW Telecom has a redundant presence in our facilities, and outside, where they are provisioned on a SONET ring to their central office. Fiber optic connectivity at its best is provided from point-to-point.
With most facility rentals, the Wisconsin Center District provides one (1) complimentary telephone for show management use. This basic analog phone line and instrument allows unlimited, unassisted local outgoing calls and all incoming local and long distance calls. Digital service, additional lines or expanded calling capabilities may be purchased, and service can be upgraded at almost any time.
Call Center Solutions
The District's internal PBX allows us to function like a phone company, offering a wide range of customized services tailored to show management or exhibitor needs, including call routing, voice mail, 800 numbers, phone banks, teleconferencing and much more. The Wisconsin Center District's knowledgeable telecommunications staff will help structure your call center to optimize your time and resources.
Long Distance Service
Consistent with our overall devotion to technological excellence, the Wisconsin Center District is committed to providing exceptional quality, value and flexibility in long distance service used by its customers, employees and on-site partners. Long distance service purchased through the District and used in our offices is provided by TW Telecom. Please consult your Event Services Manager for the latest information about long distance service on District premises.
Two-Way Radios
Structured on an 800Mhz frequency, this internal system permits 2-way communications spanning 3 city blocks. Two-way radios can be made available for show management and key individuals involved with the operation of an event. This open line of communication allows immediate contact with Wisconsin Center District Event Services Managers, Door Chiefs and other personnel. Additional radios can be rented for larger groups, if interested please contact Mark Dolan at 414.908.6087 or at email@example.com.
Scoreboard Video Systems
The UW-Milwaukee Panther Arena's center-hung scoreboard is equipped with four versatile, brilliant EIKI digital projectors and projection screens. This scoreboard provides great views of the game or your event from every angle. Thirty additional 27" television monitors, distributed throughout the Arena's concourses, lobbies and concession areas, may display the same or a different video image as the scoreboard. Most commonly used for live video feed at sporting events, this system is excellently suited for use at concerts, corporate presentations, general assemblies and other events.
Videoconferencing We have high quality videoconferencing units available to turn meetings into global events. Our internal staff can be made available to coordinate the videoconference.
Video Production Services and Advertising
The Wisconsin Center District's video systems utilize commercial Beta format for professional quality; tape duplication in a variety of formats is available. Our staff or on-call production crew can handle any camera work, directing, editing or other production services your event may need, including producing souvenir event tapes for sale, event advertising for local broadcast, and more.
The District's production staff archives video clips, graphics, text and stills to assist clients in assembling B-roll footage and producing event advertising. Standardized packages on a Beta cassette are available to clients at no additional cost.
When circumstances allow, the District advertises upcoming public events on its scoreboards and video systems. Additional advertising time may be purchased, and the District's video production staff can help produce advertisements to send to our many 42" LCD monitors throughout the Convention Center.

Is civility in political campaigning an oxymoron?
I can't believe Tod Robberson just accused his conservative colleague of being a moron! Look at that headline! It's very clear from the way he wrote it. Just scroll down the page to his conservative colleague's blog item, and there's no mistaking it. If the editorial board were consistent in its civility campaign, it would call Tod Robberson out.
Well, that's kind of how all this gets started, isn't it? Take something out of context, twist it a little bit, and all of a sudden, bang, you've got a big, blown-out-of-proportion issue for everyone to pile on about.
Biden stupidly blurts something out about "chains." Obama refers in a speech to the good things that government does, such as building roads, bridges, airports and other transportation networks that help business thrive. Then he stupidly blurts out, "If you've got a business, you didn't build that." The that is the infrastructure that the government put in place to help business thrive. Obama never said nor implied that America's entrepreneurs didn't build their own businesses.
Well, we dinged Obama on that one anyway. For pretty much the same reason as someone might argue that I'm calling my colleague a moron, simply because part of my headline contained a word that has "moron" as a component of it. It's easy, when you remove the context surrounding people's remarks, to make a straw-horse argument out of anything. That's the game.
Enough already. That's what I said in this week's board meeting when the proposal was made to write a "miss" to Biden for his "chains" remark. I'm tired of it. It's getting us nowhere. Now, you can take my remarks in the board meeting and blow them up and take them out of context, and you can argue in a blog item that we are now "re-writing the definition" of civility. But sometimes, the most civil thing to do in the middle of a public brawl is simply to declare, "Enough!" and stop playing the tit-for-tat game. That's the argument I made in the board meeting, and thankfully, that's the argument that prevailed.
We haven't written editorials and misses every time Republicans have accused Obama of being a "socialist," even though this image unfairly conjures in my mind the same fear of enslavement and oppression that some say the "chains" remark conjures. We haven't written editorials every time Donald Trump demands to see Obama's birth certificate, even though Trump and his ilk are clearly implying that Obama is not qualified to occupy the office that he was legitimately elected to.
Now a bunch of ex-Navy SEALs — all Republicans — have posted a video suggesting that Obama is a traitor for what they claim is the leaking of classified information about the raid that killed Osama bin Laden. These ex-SEALs, I might add, are challenging the integrity and truthfulness of their own former commander, Adm. William McRaven. These ex-SEALs, I might add, did not participate in the mission and have not been briefed about what was and was not classified or cleared for release. SEALs or not, they are just Republican operatives trying to help their party gain an edge.
Is it uncivil to imply that your commander in chief is a traitor and has willingly put his nation at risk for political gain?
I would argue that it's neither civil nor uncivil. It's politics. And it's too bad that people actually buy into this and believe what they hear in political ads. I choose not to listen to either side's attack ads because they serve absolutely no purpose in terms of addressing our nation's most pressing problems.
No, it's not an oxymoron to maintain civility in the middle of a heated political campaign. I wish all candidates were better at keeping their remarks focused on policy instead of personal attacks. When candidates and their surrogates clearly cross over the civility line, I hope we will continue to call them out for doing so. But I also hope we don't fall into the trap of insisting that every single dumb remark by these guys must necessarily trigger an editorial or a miss.

The Associated Press
The price of oil approached $93 a barrel Thursday, rising slightly as expectations of greater use of heating oil during extreme cold weather in North America offset signs of weak demand for gasoline.
By early afternoon in Europe, benchmark U.S. oil for February delivery was up 46 cents to $92.79 a barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
On Wednesday, the contract fell $1.34 to $92.33 after the U.S. Energy Department said supplies of gasoline rose by 6.2 million barrels last week, a jump of nearly 3 percent. Platts, the energy information arm of McGraw-Hill, said the data indicated that demand for gasoline was the lowest in a year.
Prices recovered a bit Thursday as the record-breaking cold affecting the northern U.S. boosted demand for heating oil. The latest employment data was also supportive, as the Labor Department said Thursday that the number of Americans seeking unemployment benefits fell 15,000 last week to a seasonally adjusted 330,000, signaling fewer layoffs and steady job growth.
Still, the Nymex contract is down over 5 percent so far this year.
Brent crude, used to set prices for international varieties of crude, was up 76 cents to $107.91 on the ICE Futures exchange in London.
Brent has been supported the erratic results of efforts to increase of Libya's oil production and exports, which have been hampered by conflicts between the government and regional militias in the country with Africa's largest proven oil reserves.
In other energy futures trading on Nymex:
— Wholesale gasoline was up 1.98 cents at $2.6761 a gallon.
— Natural gas fell 6.8 cents to $4.148 per 1,000 cubic feet.
— Heating oil was up 1.05 cents to $2.9599 a gallon.

Courser, any of 9 or 10 species of Old World shorebirds belonging to the family Glareolidae (order Charadriiformes), which also includes the pratincoles. Most live in semideserts, where they chase insects afoot; they can, however, fly strongly with their short wings. The best-known species is the cream-coloured courser (Cursorius cursor) of Africa, a pale-brown bird with white underparts, bold eye stripes, and black wing tips. The Indian courser (C. coromandelicus) is brown with a strong face pattern. The bronze-winged courser (Rhinoptilus chalcopterus), largest of several species in sub-Saharan Africa, frequents woodlands and is chiefly nocturnal. It is about 30 cm (12 inches) long.

Study says Canadian immigration numbers should be reduced
09 April 2012
For concise and recent immigration information watch our news.A new study released this week questions whether Canadian governments should continue to maintain high immigration levels in tough economic times.
Latest news
- 13 May 2016 Expand Canada temporary work visas says Chamber of Commerce
- 10 May 2016 Canadian immigration Temporary worker visa restrictions lifted
- 26 April 2016 Canadian immigration: Food workers best chance of Express Entry
- 13 April 2016 Quebec to accept 10,000 Canada visa applications from June 2016
"During recessions, economic outcomes deteriorate more among recent immigrants than among the Canadian-born," said the report, "Making it in Canada: Immigration Outcomes and Policies". "It also helps prevent longer-run economic 'scarring' that can occur when new labour market entrants are unable to obtain jobs or are unable to practice their skills over a long period."
Canadian Immigration Minister Jason Kenney said he partially agrees with the findings in the report but did not support the idea of reducing migrant numbers during recessions. He added that he is trying to maintain a balance between immigration critics on both sides who have been urging the government to either increase or decrease migrant numbers.
"I think the findings confirm what I've been saying about the struggles of recent immigrants," said Kenney. "This is why I'm saying we need transformative change."
In 2010, Canada accepted over 280,000 permanent residents, the highest level in over fifty years. Canada has one of the highest intakes of immigrants in the world, with a per capita rate double that of the US rate, according to the IRPP report.
Data from the 2006 census shows that immigrants are earning roughly 60 to 70 percent of the wage earned by the average Canadian-born worker in their first few years in the country. This is compared to 85-90 percent in the late 1970s. Prior to the 1980s, Canadian immigration flows used to rise and fall based on Canada's economic performance.
Although the report did state: "Immigration has a very modest impact on measures such as gross domestic product per capita and the government's balance sheet, although whether it is positive, negative or zero is open for debate, with most observers favouring 'small positive'."

I love browsing the American Girl Doll selection of handcrafted items on Etsy. I find so many great ideas on there. I recently discovered the eVintage Patterns Etsy shop and purchased her Halloween AG Doll Printables Pack. It is chock-full of wonderful treats for your American Girl dolls.
{image source: eVintage Patterns, used with permission}
The Halloween AG Doll Printables Pack is 35 pages long and is in full color. It includes vintage Halloween Magazines, Coloring Books, a Crayon Pack, Costumes, Board Games, Wall Decorations, Treat Bags, Candy Bars, Halloween postcards, and more. All perfectly scaled for American Girl and other 18 inch dolls!
We certainly haven't had a chance yet to print and make everything that is included. However, I thought I would share some of the things my daughters have made so far.
The printable candy and treat bags were the reason I bought the pack. So cute! I printed the labels on cardstock. I think it would be even more realistic to print them on paper that has a little bit of a gloss to it. We will probably do that when we make some more.
As I was assembling the candy bars, I stuffed them with a little bit of Fiberfill to help them hold their shape. You could also certainly make candy bars out of polymer clay and use that with the printable wrappers.
The treat bags are adorable. There are 2 different designs included. I printed these on sturdy cardstock and assembled them using Scotch tape. You want the good tape for these. I used the satin Scotch tape that is meant for gift wrap. You can hardly see it.
The Crayon printables that are included are favorites with my daughters. They had so much fun making little crayons out of polymer clay and putting them in the crayon wrappers. We didn't get them sized exactly right for the boxes, but it doesn't matter. Aren't the little Halloween Magazines and coloring books included in this Halloween AG Printables pack just precious?
Last, but not least, we printed the Halloween post cards. No assembly required for those. We just had to cut them out. Just great for using with the doll mailbox we made back in February. You can even write little messages on the back of the cards if you want.
The Halloween AG Doll Printables Pack from eVintage Patterns has a regular price of $4.99, but it is currently on sale for $4.24. In addition, right now if you buy 2 packs, you get a third free. I bought the Halloween and Christmas packs and was able to get the Valentine's Day pack for free.
Carol, the owner of eVintage Patterns, truly couldn't be nicer. She told me that she has plans to come out with new packs for Easter and Summertime. So be sure to keep an eye out for those as well.
For all that was included, I thought the Halloween AG Doll Printables Pack was a great deal. My daughters have enjoyed making all these fun goodies and there is still plenty left for them to do. To get your own Halloween printables pack, be sure to visit the eVintage Patterns Etsy shop. Happy crafting!

Client needs to understand that as hardware advances, so must software. 3.2
NetWare was built before 29160s were invented. If they want new hardware,
software (particularly OS upgrades) should follow. HAM driver support is
marginal in 3.x NetWare. Try slowing the controller down to its absolute
slowest setting - you MAY have some luck. Also, make sure that the tape drive
in the new server is supported by your 7.5 Backup Exec. They have driver
updates on their website. If they are using their original tape drive and
its external, you DEFINITELY have to slow down the 29160 and perhaps even
replace the cable with a new short one.

There is no Frigate like a Book
by Emily Dickinson
Analysis: Trivia
Brain Snacks: Tasty Tidbits of Knowledge
Dickinson's poem inspired a (now non-existent) online literary magazine, Frigate – check it out here.
Dickinson attended Mount Holyoke Female Seminary, but she left after only a year because she was so homesick (source).
Dickinson's little sister was named Lavinia. Lavinia is the name of a character in Shakespeare's Titus Andronicus, who is horribly abused in the play. Like her sister, Lavinia also lived in relative seclusion and isolation at home (source).
When she was little, Dickinson once wrote, "I am growing handsome very fast indeed! I expect I shall be the belle of Amherst when I reach my 17th year. I don't doubt that I will have crowds of admirers at that age" (source).

The Benefits of Virtualizing the Marketing Environment
With customized database marketing automation continuously growing, I thought it would be an interesting idea to write a mock letter that could apply to many companies out there who are no longer "new" to database marketing. This letter is a proposal to port an existing marketing environment to a virtual machine. The marketing environment in the example below is a couple of years old, and highly successful in its current implementation. The business processes for the campaign development lifecycle are robust and there are no immediate plans to modify the existing environment. read more »

New Moon
by Stephenie Meyer
New Moon Chapter 3 Summary
How It All Goes Down
The End
- Edward tells Bella that Alice has gone away with Jasper. Bella feels guilty for running Alice and Jasper out of their own home.
- As she comes home from working at Olympic Outfitters (to pay for college, despite Edward's insistent desire to pay for it), Bella finds Edward waiting at her house. He's completely unresponsive to her, though, and she realizes that some type of change looms on the horizon.
- Several days pass with no change in Edward's behavior, so Bella decides to have a serious talk with him. Edward beats her to it. He asks her to go for a walk in the woods with her.
- In the woods, Edward tells Bella that he and his family are leaving – without her. "I'm no good for you, Bella," he says. "My world is not for you" (3.159, 161).
- When Bella protests, saying she doesn't care about her soul or being damned and all the rest of it, he says:
"Bella, I don't want you to come with me."
"You don't want me?"
"No." (3.170-173)
- While Bella struggles to grasp his words, Edward's face is "wiped clean of all emotion" (3.180).
- He promises to disappear as if he'd never existed, and adds, "Don't worry, you're human – your memory is no more than a sieve. Time heals all wounds for humans" (3.195).
- He bids her good-bye and leaves her alone in the forest.
- Bella is shell-shocked. She stumbles blindly through the forest. As night falls, she notices that the sky it utterly black – a new moon. Title alert!
- Sam Uley, a young man from the La Push Indian reservation, finds Bella and carries her home. He's part of a search party put together by Charlie and his old friend Billy.
- In half-sleep, Bella overhears Charlie saying that there are bonfires at La Push, celebrating some kind of event. We gather that the Quileute are happy about the departure of the Cullens.
- Bella descends into unconsciousness:
The waves of pain […] washing over my head, pulling me under. I did not resurface. (3.330-331)

US Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson has once again reiterated that China is not moving quickly enough on currency reform, and said he hoped high-level talks next month would deliver results. Paulson in a speech in New York said, 'They're not moving in my judgment quickly enough. I feel quite strongly there's a need to move more quickly in the short term, but we need to get to a point in the intermediate term where China has a market-determined currency'. The two countries are scheduled to hold their next high-level talks in Washington May 23-24, the second round of what is known as the 'Strategic Economic Dialogue.' Paulson had started this strategic dialogue with China in December. Paulson has been persistently urging China to take measures rapidly to allow its currency to rise in value against the dollar as the Bush administration sought to fend off a protectionist counterattack in Congress over growing US trade deficits. According to the figures, the US reported a record $232.5 billion trade gap with China. At present, there is no doubt that there is an obvious impression of annoyance with China in political circles and a number of industries throughout America, Paulson outlined in the speech. He went on to say, 'Many Americans question whether the benefits of our growing trade relationship are evenly distributed.' The Bush administration earlier this week after holding talks with Chinese officials has stated that China had made no new proposals to resolve a dispute about letting the Chinese currency fluctuate in relation to the dollar. The US treasury secretary also clarified that he is a big believer in a strong dollar and a strong dollar was good for the US. According to the treasury secretary the dollar's value is set in a competitive marketplace based on underlying US economic fundamentals. But he expressed at the same time his concerns over the fact that China needs to allow more appreciation and flexibility in the yuan's value in the short term. He also noted that China is transitioning from a planned economy into a market-driven economy and there is no doubt that this process will continue for a number of years. Acknowledging its role in the world economy the secretary stressed that because of its size and its role in the world market, 'China is already a world economic leader and deserves to be recognized as a leader.'

Box.net, a high-flying cloud company that's busy hiring more workers as it expands, is relocating to Los Altos in a move that will nearly quadruple its space.
Now based in Palo Alto, Box.net plans to move its headquarters and primary operations to 4440 El Camino Real in Los Altos, taking over a building that once was occupied by Rambus. About a year ago, Rambus left that space when it needed to expand and shifted its head offices to Sunnyvale.
"We have seen a lot of success, especially this year," said Dylan Smith, Box.net's chief financial officer and co-founder. "That success has accelerated this year by the round of financing we raised. We are really ramping up and maximizing our opportunities."
More than a few tech companies have been expanding lately. Google, Facebook, VMware and Hewlett-Packard - a tech who's who - have disclosed or completed deals for major expansions.
In February, Box.net landed $48 million in venture capital funding, bringing its total to $80 million. The company, founded in 2005, is using the money to more than double the size of its staff, broaden its mobile platform and partner base, as well as significantly widen its international capabilities.
In January, Box.net had about 125 employees. In June, it hired its 200th employee. By the time Box.net moves to its new offices later this year, it will have at least 250 employees, Smith estimated. The Los Altos building that Box.net is renting can accommodate 600 to 700 employees.
"We expect to fill it up in just a couple of years," Smith said.
Box.net provides a Web-based platform to enable individuals, small businesses and big companies to share files and other content from anywhere.
Businesses outside the U.S. account for 15 percent of Box.net's customer base. An estimated 73 percent of the Fortune 500 have adopted the Box.net platform.
Box.net leased 97,000 square feet in Los Altos, a jump from the 27,000 square feet it has in Palo Alto. The lease was arranged through realty firm Cornish & Carey Commercial.
"The growth that Box.net is experiencing is not the norm, it has been substantial," said Ben Stern, a vice president with Cornish & Carey. "Their real estate needs have quadrupled."
The location was also a key factor. The new Box.net offices are close to a train station and other public transit.
"Being on the Caltrain line is important for growing companies to be able to recruit young talent," said Matt Winters, Cornish & Carey vice president. "They are recruiting engineers from San Jose and San Francisco."
"Companies want to be close to Caltrain or light rail to have a good shot at hiring engineers who might have four or five offers to choose from," Stern said.
And the new Los Altos office is near an array of conveniences.
"It's only four or five blocks from the San Antonio Caltrain station," Winters said. "For amenities, there are a bunch of restaurants along El Camino. There is a new mixed-use development nearby. It's a pretty nice location."

Snow Days: How to Prepare for a Last Minute Care Crisis
The great thing about today's sophisticated storm tracking equipment is that it allows us to prepare for extreme weather well in advance. Shovel? Check. Rock salt? Check. Hot cocoa and marshmallows? Check. Backup child care plan? Oh, need to get on that.
With schools bound to close at some point during the winter, caregiver driveways certain to be snowed-in and jobs undoubtedly still needing your attendance, how do you get a babysitter during a snowstorm? Here's advice for winter storm prep that will get you to work and your kids cared for -- no matter how miserable it is outside.
Tip 1: Watch the Weather
Justin McNaull, director of state relations for AAA agrees: "Pay attention to the weather at least 24 hours ahead. If it's obvious you're going to get a ton of snow and the roads aren't going to be safe to travel, you generally have a chance to figure it out with at least a couple hours of warning."
Tip 2: Call in the Backup Care Cavalry
Did you know that many companies provide backup child care as a work benefit? If your company offers child care onsite or at a nearby facility, great. Get on the list. The trick is to register before the snow comes to ensure you're in their system.
If your employer doesn't offer emergency child care or it was booked, you'll need to get a bit more creative and find a last-minute sitter. A faster and easier way to find that person is through My Town, Care.com's online feature that offers a map-view of all the sitters in your neighborhood and lets you browse their vital stats and availability. Theoretically, these sitters are walking distance and can don a pair of snow boots and trek on over to your house. Problem solved.
Note: To use Care.com's My Town service, you need to be a member, which is a free and relatively painless process.
Start now before the snow and interview walking-distance backup care providers, adding the ones you love to your list of favorites. When the snow hits, Care.com can send them an instant message announcing your need for help. Ideally, your crisis is solved before you can even shovel out your car.
Tip 3: Create a Care.com Co-op
A shared child care experience, based on a point system, you can join a co-op and swap babysitting jobs with other local families -- for free. (The point system tracks it to make sure no one leans on another too much.) Other get-creative ideas include doing a kid-swap with your neighbors, either for the whole day and returning the favor next time, or half the day at your house and half the day at her house. Alternately you and your spouse can have an agreement that you both work from home on such days and watch the children in shifts.
Tip 4: Start a Neighborhood Group
If care exchanges interest you, consider Care.com Groups, which help facilitate neighborhood friendships and play dates. For example, you can start a group and invite parents in the neighborhood to join. Or add a group of parents within your child's school system. "It's a really convenient way to set up a group and then start to arrange backup care with local parents," says Jane Price, a director at Care.com, who recently started one in her own neighborhood.
She also offers this tip: "If you expand your group to your school system's class, you might find parents who aren't normally on your playdate list or in your circle of close friends, but who live nearby and are trustworthy and your child knows and would have a fun time hanging out with for the afternoon."

Marriage Penalty Is Expected to Ensnare More Couples
The marriage penalty is far from disappearing despite efforts in Congress to ease the problem.
Many two-income married couples still are paying more in taxes together than they would if each had remained single. According to accountants and congressional staffers, the so-called marriage penalty will ensnare many more couples this year unless Congress slows the rapid growth of the alternative minimum tax.
"The marriage penalty is alive and well — and thriving in the AMT," says John Buckley, chief tax counsel for the Democrats on the House Ways and Means Committee.
That may surprise some people who thought the marriage penalty was a thing of the past. After all, Congress did make the standard deduction for joint filers twice the amount of the standard deduction for singles. It also made the income ranges subject to the 10% and 15% tax rates for joint filers twice those for singles. But while those moves certainly helped, they didn't eradicate the problem. –Read more. – Tom Herman

Judge to rule in school finance lawsuit today
State District Judge John Dietz is expected to issue a preliminary ruling in the Texas school finance case Monday after attorneys for the plaintiff school districts and the state offer their closing arguments. The case wrapped up last week, setting the stage for Dietz' decision and capping 12 weeks of testimony that began back in October. This will be Dietz' second major ruling on school finance, the first coming in a similar case a decade ago.
Attorneys for the four plaintiff groups – representing more than 600 school districts – will go first on Monday, taking most of the morning. They will try to bolster their claims that the school finance system is inequitable and does not provide enough funding for schools to meet all state and federal requirements. State attorneys will then counter that funding for schools is adequate – a constitutional requirement – and meets the legal standard for equity laid out in previous court rulings. Much of the testimony during the trial centered on the massive funding cuts that the Legislature imposed on public schools during the past two years
Whatever the ruling, the case will be appealed to the Texas Supreme Court, which will have the final say in the lawsuit. The high court is expected to hear the case later this year. Legislative leaders have made it clear that they will not move to revamp the school finance law short of a ruling from the Supreme Court, which handed down its last school finance decision in 2005. That order called for changes in the way schools were funded with property taxes and led to a massive reduction in school property taxes – offset by higher taxes on businesses and smokers.

KRASNAYA POLYANA, Russia -- Ted Ligety of Park City, Utah, gave the U.S. ski team its biggest moment of the Sochi Games on Wednesday and entered Olympic lore by winning the gold medal in the giant slalom at the Rosa Khutor Alpine Center.
Ligety roared out of the first run with a 0.93-second lead that no one could catch. He posted a cumulative time of 2:45.29 to finish 0.48 seconds ahead of silver medalist Steve Missillier of France. Another Frenchman, Alexis Pinturault, won the bronze.
Ligety is the second American to win two Olympic gold medals in skiing, joining Andrea Mead Lawrence, who won gold in the slalom and giant slalom at the Oslo Games in 1952.
Ligety has been one of America's best skiers for eight years but has been in the shadow of stars Bode Miller and Lindsey Vonn.
"It was a huge relief," said Ligety, 29, who won his first gold in 2006 in the combined. "All season long, everybody talks about the Olympics, Olympics, Olympics. At a certain point, I was just like, 'Let's do it already. Let's get this thing over with, so we can stop talking about the pressure and everything with it.' So it's awesome to finally do it and get the monkey off the back."
His victory gives the U.S. team four medals with the men's and women's slalom races coming. Ligety and Mikaela Shiffrin are expected to be in the running for medals in both of those events.
Ligety used a perfect first run to open a wide lead, then protected that with a conservative second run that was only 14th-fastest down the Rosa Khutor course in more comfortable conditions than the fog, rain and sleet of a day earlier.
"His first run was flawless, free. He trusted himself. It was his signature skiing," U.S. men's head coach Sasha Rearick said. "The second run was a strategic chess match, which he executed brilliantly."
San Jose native Tim Jitloff finished 15th with a time of 2:47.13, while Jared Goldberg of Salt Lake City was 19th. After winning a bronze medal last weekend, Miller was 20th.
Miller, 36, said he hurt his left knee during the super G, the race he got his sixth Olympic medal. He will not enter the slalom.
"Managing it has been the biggest challenge, coming back from injury," he said. "Your body, when you go off snow for a while, doesn't like getting back into it."
Miller said he changed equipment because of a crash he had last month. "It's been maintaining some pretty good puffiness in there through this whole couple weeks," he said.

Emotional Support Animal Services, ESA Prescriptions and ESA Letters from America's Leading Authority on ESA Letters
What is an Emotional Support Animal (ESA)? It is a well trained dog, or other common domestic animal that provides therapeutic benefits to its owner through companionship and affection. This animal acts as a secure base for their owner whose illness limits one or more major life activities.
Only licensed mental health professionals and physicians are qualified to provide genuine and authentic ESA prescription letters so BEWARE of automated online services that claim to provide "real" ESA Letters of Prescription. Also, know that vests, ID cards, etc. are unnecessary and bogus products, and in no way certify your pet to be an ESA.
With a multitude of ESA Letters in the course of her career as a therapist, Carla Black MFT is America's leading authority on ESA letters for pet owners with the legitimate need to own and keep a support animal, and has been quoted on the growing need for ESAs in the New York Times.
Emotional Support Animals differ from registered service animals because they only require the same amount of training as a well-trained pet. In addition, the ESA has to be able to live peacefully with people without being a danger or nuisance. They are not to be confused with psychiatric service animals that require special training to perform specific tasks that help a person mitigate the effects of a handicap, such as with a seeing-eye dog.
Emotional support animals have been proven extremely effective at helping to relieve the symptoms of the following disabilities:
- Depression
- Post-traumatic stress disorder
- Anxiety
- Social phobias (including, but not limited to, fear of flying)
- Panic Disorders
- Agoraphobia
- Mood Disorders
An ESA works BEST when COMBINED with ongoing psychiatric counseling to address the root issue
A pet can provide loyal devotion and affection around the clock to people struggling with a variety of issues. But combine that support pet with regular counseling to address the underlying issues, and real transformative change can happen!
Carla's expertise in Emotional Support Animal Prescriptions was recently called upon for a NY Times article on the subject.
In addition to the ESA prescription letter, which is good for one year, you will receive:
- A one-hour counseling consultation to discuss and verify your personal need for an ESA letter of prescription; via Skype video chat or telephone; a value of $150.
- A clinical assessment consisting of administering and evaluating real evaluative tests to assess your real need for an ESA, and help you plan a course for ongoing psychiatric counseling to address and correct the root causes of your unease.
Call 818-907-7732 to begin now!
Click Here to Order Online
Even though a person may have an ESA prescription letter, this in no way guarantees that you will qualify as disabled as laws pertain to physical or mental handicap.
Carla Black MFT cannot guarantee that a property manager or airline company will not violate the law by discriminating against you, despite possessing a valid letter of prescription.
Note that the free 15 minute consultation applies only to ongoing therapy clients and does not apply to those seeking a one-time service, and do not arrange ongoing counseling to address their core issues.
Please do not contact this office if you are seeking an ESA Letter just to avoid paying fees associated with your pets; or to receive unwarranted special treatment. This service is ethically bound to help people with genuine psychiatric issues.

The Tempest
by William Shakespeare
The Tempest Act 2, Scene 1 Summary
- Alonso, King of Naples, has washed up on shore with Antonio, Sebastian, Gonzalo, and attendant lords. Gonzalo tells everyone that they can balance their sorrow with comfort—at least they've survived the terrible shipwreck.
- Antonio and Sebastian launch into teasing Gonzalo mean-spiritedly. Interestingly, the two different sets of people see entirely different things when they survey the island. Gonzalo sees "lush and lusty grass," while Antonio and Sebastian only see a nasty, uninhabitable place—kind of like a glass half-full, glass half-empty deal.
- Gonzalo also notes their clothes are as fresh as the first time they were worn for the marriage of Alonso's daughter, Claribel, to the King of Tunis.
- The King interrupts his bickering companions with his grief. He regrets that he married his daughter to a man in so far off a place—the voyage to visit her (this one) has cost him his son, and his daughter is so far away she might as well be dead, too. Francisco, an attendant lord, tries to reassure the King that Prince Ferdinand might still be alive, but the King won't hear any of this perky optimism.
- Sebastian takes the opportunity to confirm that his brother, the King, needs a good kick in the teeth. As the King grieves his two lost children, Sebastian points out that the King's loss is his own fault; even though everyone harassed King Alonso about it, he chose to marry his daughter to a far-off African instead of a closer European.
- Gonzalo gently tells Sebastian to hold off, and changes the subject back to the island, which shows itself to him as beautiful.
- Gonzalo begins to talk of what he would do if he were king of the island—there would be no trade in money, no politicians, no schools, no rich or poor, no slavery, no inheritance, no dividing up the land, no metal, corn, wine or oil (things needing careful cultivation and work), and no occupation of any kind—just idle, wholesome, idyllic men and women living happily.
- Brain Snack: Gonzalo's big speech is based on a famous passage from John Florio's 1603 translation of an essay called "Of Cannibals" by Montaigne.
- Gonzalo's people would live off of the bounty of everything nature brings forth, and he announces he would govern to excel the Golden Age (according to classical mythology, this was the first of the "Ages of Man," when there was no violence, conflict, or injustice, and when nobody had to work for food or shelter).
- Antonio and Sebastian make snide comments and the King tells everyone to pipe down, as they're all talking nonsense.
- Ariel enters playing a song, and everyone suddenly drifts off to sleep, lulled by the music, except for Alonso, Sebastian, and Antonio. Antonio and Sebastian agree they will keep watch over the King while he sleeps, as they are not at all sleepy, and wonder what happened to make everyone pass out so quickly.
- Antonio, who we know took his brother's (Prospero's) dukedom through treachery, doesn't waste any time before suggesting to Sebastian that all that stands between Sebastian and the crown is the sleeping King. (They all think Prince Ferdinand is dead and Claribel, the princess, is so far away that she couldn't properly rule the kingdom.) Further, Antonio claims sleep is a sort of death; it would be easy for them to kill the King while he slumbers, and convince the others of Sebastian's noble title.
- Sebastian quibbles a bit, and asks if Antonio's conscience doesn't bother him for stealing his brother's title. Antonio replies that he's led by practicality, not conscience. (Geesh. Who does Antonio think he is? Bad-brother Claudius from Hamlet?)
- Sebastian comes around, and two plotters agree that if Antonio draws his sword to kill the King, Sebastian will draw on Gonzalo, and Sebastian's path to power will be clear. As the two unsheathe their swords, Ariel enters and whispers in Gonzalo's ear of their treachery, waking him up.
- Gonzalo quickly wakes the King, and everyone rises to find Sebastian and Antonio with their swords drawn. The two are surprised in the midst of their horrible act. They claim they heard the howling of lions and only drew their swords to protect the King.
- King Alonso is freaked out by the possibility of lions and, not knowing Antonio and Sebastian's wicked plan, Alonso suggests they all leave the place at once to see if they can find his son.
- Ariel pledges to tattle to Prospero about Sebastian and Antonio's wickedness. Meanwhile, he will help the King safely seek the Prince.

Students with documented disabilities that require accommodation of:
- a reduced-distraction or distraction-free room
- extended time
- the use of adaptive technology
Students must present an accommodation letter from Disability Resources to their instructors and follow the instructions listed on the form in order to receive testing accommodations.
Students are responsible for:
- entering their course CRN numbers into AIMS each term.
- completing a testing contract through AIMS with their instructor
- scheduling tests in advance
(Quizzes need 5 days' notice, and midterms and finals need at least 7 days)
Exceptions are made for students rescheduling a test due to disability-related absence on the day of a test.
Students must discuss this exceptional scheduling with a DR staff member as soon as possible. Documentation (such as a physician's note) may be required.
We try to schedule exams for the same date and time as the class exam. However, we may need to schedule at an alternate time in the following circumstances:
- If an exam is scheduled to use only a portion of a regularly scheduled class time, to be followed by lecture or other classroom activity, rescheduling allows for an extra time accommodation without impinging on other class activities.
- If an extra time accommodation would infringe on the students' other classes or work schedule.
- In the case of finals, exams may be rescheduled to avoid a student having multiple exams on a single day. (In this instance, the first arranged final will have precedence of scheduling.)
- There are over 200 students eligible for accommodated exams in the Accommodated Testing Center. We may need to reschedule exams based on space and time constraints in our office.
When faculty members wish to use pop quizzes as an essential component of a course, they should contact Disability Resources as soon as possible after receiving a student's letter of accommodation. Faculty should provide DR with as much information as possible about the dates of the pop quizzes. This information will not be released to the student.
On the day of a pop quiz, faculty may hand the student their quiz in a sealed envelope to bring to the Accommodated Testing Center. Students will receive their other test accommodations (extra time, adaptive technology, etc.) as usual.
- When requests are not submitted through AIMS within notification deadlines.
- Tests which by their designated purpose are not suitable for an alternative site (such as lab tests or group work). For these types of exams, the instructor and student should arrange together in advance for a time for testing in the necessary environment which can accommodate the need for additional time and the elimination of outside distractions, and for required aids.
- When the student is not a registered student with Disability Resources. Disability Resources does not have the space or staffing to proctor makeup exams, distance education exams, etc.
After testing is completed, the testing records are kept on file by DR according to the OUS records retention schedule and are available for review by instructors at any time.

The Realtor Difference
Why a professional is still relevant in your home purchase
What is a Realtor? Folks not "in the trade" may not understand the difference between a Realtor and a Real Estate Agent. Both must be licensed by the state(s) in which they sell real estate, and both must abide by certain trade laws and ethics which protect customers from unethical practices; however, a Realtor adds just a bit more to your real estate experience.
Realtors have access to MLS systems (which stands for Multiple Listing Systems). Similar to what you find on home search websites, MLS provides a database of homes that are active and not active on the market as well as important information about homes for sale and how to best contact the owners and facilitate a transaction.
Realtors have a higher standard when it comes to their Code of Ethics. Realtors have committees that are focused on improving social and ethical standards and providing fair treatment in trade and customer relations.
Realtors provide (and require) education in order to keep all agents current to changes in law which ultimately protects your home buying and selling experience.
There are many more reasons why using a Realtor in your home transaction is still relevant, even though so much information is available through internet access, but the most important to our home buyers and sellers? Check out this article which lists the top 3 reasons Buyers and Sellers end up using an agent.
What were the top reasons home owners identified for having a real estate agent by their side?
Home Buyers
- Handling paperwork: 67%
- Having someone who understands market value: 59%
- Access to market information: 53%
Home Sellers
- Handling paperwork: 64%
- Advertising the home to bring in offers: 58%
- Having someone to price the home appropriately: 57%
Members of the Best Darn Real Estate Team at Keller Williams Realty River Cities are Realtors and abide by the Realtor standard, while participating in our local Boards. Check out Our Philosophy to see why working with us is a different experience.

BARBOURVILLE, Ky. - The Union baseball team ran into some bad luck Sunday as it dropped both ends of a doubleheader to visiting Shawnee State (Ohio), losing 13-3 and 3-1.
With the losses, the Bulldogs fall to 4-3 on the year. The Bears improve to 4-5 overall.
Union struggled getting its offense going as Shawnee State limited the host to six hits on the day. Meanwhile, the Bears lined 19 base knocks with many finding a hole through the infield or gaps down the right- and left-field lines.
No Bulldog had more than one hit on the day, and while he went hitless, LaVance Anderson (Bowling Green, Ky.) was one of the more productive players at the plate as he walked twice, stole two bases and scored twice. Gabby Juarbe (San Juan, Puerto Rico) collected two RBIs in going 1-for-5 in the two contests.
Game 1 - Turning Point
Early on, both teams matched each other run for run, but that all changed in third. Shawnee State scored twice in the top of the third to claim a 4-2 edge. WIth two on and one out, Nelson Price (Burkesville, Ky.) doubled to pull Union within run and place runners on second and third. Jackson Arnett (Tompkinsville, Ky.) then lofted what appeared to be a sac fly to right, but Bear right fielder Brady Hightchew turned it into a double play as he gunned Tyler Brake (Burlington, Ky.) down at the plate, keeping it a 4-3 Shawnee State lead.
Union did not score again as Shawnee State scored in every at bat, including a seven-run sixth to make the final 13-3.
Calvin Sluberski led the Bears at the plate in going 4-for-5 with three runs scored a RBI,
Zak Esposito went the distance to get the win, allowing three runs - two earned, on five hits and three walks with four stikeouts. He is now 1-1 on the year. Luke Collis (St. Charles, Mo.) suffered the loss to drop to 1-1 on the season.
Game 2 - Turning Point
A late rally by the Bears turned what was a superb pitching performance into a tough loss for the Bulldogs.
Union scored the game's first run in the opening frame as Anderson walked, stole second and moved to third on a thorwing error. With one out, Juarbe grounded out to allow Anderson to come home.
It remained 1-0 until the sixth when Shawnee State strung four hits together to plate three runs.
In spite of suffering the loss, Drew Hillard (Lexington, Ky.) tossed a gem, giving up three runs - two earned, on six hits and one walk with six strikeouts in six innings of work. He falls to 1-1 on the year. Cody Strayer pitched six innings and allowed one unearned run with seven strikeouts to get the win. Jordan Williams fanned two in a scoreless seventh for the save.

CASTRO VALLEY -- As Castro Valley High track and field star Nate Moore left the pit after his sixth-round attempt in the boys triple jump in the state track and field championship finals this year, he looked upset.
Never mind that he had just jumped farther than all but one of his competitors on that attempt, and that he had won the event on his previous jump. Moore's pursuit for excellence was evident.
"That last jump was big," Moore said. "I was so mad. If I had planted my feet (right), it would have been 52 (feet)."
Instead, it was 50-63/4, and Moore was half way toward making history. Later in the meet, Moore became the first high school male athlete to win California state titles in both the long jump and triple jump in consecutive years.
The Oregon-bound Moore didn't just squeak by with victories, either. He set a national best this season in any conditions with his winning triple jump of 51-4, and achieved a wind-legal national best in the long jump with an outstanding mark of 25-83/4. It was the best mark in the event at the state championship finals since 1989. Moore also was the all-condition national leader in the long jump (25-10), and he won the North Coast Section Meet of Champions titles in both events.
For his outstanding season, Moore has been named Bay Area News Group's East Bay Boys Track and Field Athlete of the Year.
"It was a great success," said Moore about his season. "Even though there were some personal goals I didn't get, in terms of the whole team I couldn't ask for anything better."
Castro Valley's boys team won the NCS Meet of Champions team title and was second at the state championships. Moore was also a member of the 400 relay team that placed second in the state finals.
Moore showed at the state championships that he thrives under pressure. He took the lead for good in both the triple jump and long jump on his first attempts in the finals and improved on those marks later in each competition.
"I want those big moments to prove myself. I want to prove that I'm the best jumper in the nation," he said.
"Nate has always really been gifted," Castro Valley coach Dooney Jones said. "I just try to coach him to be more and more competitive, to step up to the challenge."
