We talk a lot about flying with kids on this blog but now I need to know about flying with your dog!
The rich and famous do it all the time, but I'm trying to figure out how possible and how terrible it would be to fly with our 16-pound Shih Tzu (and three kids)?
Michael wants all of us to join him on trip out West later this summer — including the dog. But he's never flown before.
I've heard horror tales of dogs dying from the heat (on the ground) or freezing to death (in the air) being in the cargo holds of planes so I feel like putting him below the plane is a non-starter. (Just imagine waiting for the carrier to come around the luggage conveyor and there being our dead pet inside. Can you imagine what the kids would do?)
You can try to convince me otherwise on putting the dog below the plane if you've had good experiences with this. Although it looks like according to Delta's rules we couldn't check the pet as baggage between May 15 through Sept 15 or anytime the ground temp is 85 degrees or above.
"Weather Restrictions
Summer Restrictions—May 15 through September 15
Winter Embargo—November 1 through March 31
Animals will not be accepted as checked baggage on flights operated between Salt Lake City, UT (SLC) and Sun Valley, ID (SUN), Twin Falls, ID (TWF), or Jackson Hole, WY (JAC).
Year-round Restrictions
Delta will not accept animals as checked baggage but may ship as cargo during extreme weather if at any point during the animal's trip the temperature is forecast to be:
The site says you can ship as cargo but I'm not even clear on what that means – they would fly in the body of a different plane and meet you there? I think that would be scary for the pet not to be with you. I wouldn't stick a kid alone on a plane.
So then there's flying as a carry on. I'm just not completely sure he could fit below the seat – maybe in a soft carrier. I'm also not sure what you do if he's barking the whole time. (I'm thinking the dog is staying home.)
"Pets As Carry On
Your pet can travel with you in the cabin for a one-way fee of 125 USD/CAD* (to be collected at check-in) for travel within U.S./Canada, U.S. Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico (200 USD/CAD/EUR* for travel outside the U.S., excluding Brazil where the fee is 75 USD/CAD/EUR*). Fee is $100 to/from/within Asia.
Pets permitted in the cabin include dogs, cats, and household birds. The following restrictions apply:
So tell me your experiences of flying with a dog. What is the best way to make it work? Do you drug the dog even as a carry on? How many pounds can the dog be and actually fit under the seat? Do they have to stay in the carrier the whole flight? Do they have to stay under the seat the whole flight? What about those rich ladies with the doggies in their purses? Can a parent actually control three kids and a dog on a plane?

T…are you out of your mind? I love you but the visual of you taking THREE kids to the airport and your dog ALONE, is too much. Especially after the worry you had with Lake Lanier last week.
As you know, I FLY ALL OF THE TIME. I have NEVER taken my dog with me. I have seen lots of folks do it. Once, a man behind me in first class had flown to North Dakota to buy a VERY special breed. I cannot remember the name. He said there were only 600 in the entire US. The puppy was in a carrier and about 6 weeks old. I never heard it peep. When I did notice it, I asked a few questions. It had been vomiting all day ( perhaps due to separation anxiety and travel? and was not taking in any fluid) CAN WE SAY DEHYDRATED? This is a baby dog here. I immediately asked the flight attendant to bring over a cup of chipped ice and the dog licked on it for a while. I realize your dog is not in the same situation. The dog could have perhaps died?
SO NO, to me, I would not suggest you ALONE take 3 kids and a dog. This is too much to ask…IMHO.
FYI…YES, the dogs have to stay in the carrier the entire time they are in the concourse and on the plane….otherwise they would be running all over and perhaps doing other things the rest of us do not want to step in….LOL.

When our dog was a puppy we brought her on the plane with no problems. The cost has since gone up to $75 or more for one way. It's easy to do…but I wasn't traveling with 3 kids either. The funny thing is I took her in to the handicapped stall in the mens room and laid some papers down for her to pee on and instead she ran thru the other stalls which certainly surprised the men sitting there.
June 9th, 2010
9:28 am
Wow…that sounds like a nightmare to me! I love my dogs (especially my little mini pin), but I cannot see taking him on a plane! The cost alone would be prohibitive for me ($125 ONE WAY!)
I would look into doggie daycare or boarding him. Look at Petsmart's Pet Hotel! They are pretty nice!
My little dog would fit in one of the "purse" type carriers, but I still wouldn't take him (ok, unless I was going to be gone for 2 weeks or longer)!
I would take into consideration a couple of things: Has your dog ever been in a portable carrier like that? How does your dog behave around busy places (i.e. barking at everyone, panting, etc.)? Will it be more stress on the dog traveling than if you boarded him at home?
Unless we were moving out of state and had no other option, I wouldn't have my pet put in the cargo hold. That's just me though!
June 9th, 2010

Will…that is hilarious! I cannot imagine being one of the folks who had that little "surprise"!

I don't have a dog so I have no idea but I would think with three kids and everything you might want to put him in some sort of doggie hotel or boarding or something. Won't it be stressful to not only travel with the dog but also have to keep track of him on your trip? Why would you wnat to take the dog in the first place? Maybe because I don't have a dog I don't understand but it seems like it would just be easier to leave the dog at home? OR with your mom or something? I don't think he will really know the difference. Like sitting there thinking "why didn't they take me on their trip out west??"
June 9th, 2010
9:56 am
Doggie hotel. No fuss no muss….or just leave the dog at home, and have one or your babysitters come in and take care of him. That would be way cheaper and I'm sure the babysitter would love a little extra money…..
I'm not trying to get ugly here, but as MJG said – I seriously doubt you could handle three kids and a dog at the airport. You worry about having three kids at a water park by yourself. Leave the dog at home.
Now if you were going up the mountains of NC or somewhere close by and you are driving, by all means take the dog. But don't borrow worry by putting him on the plane.
June 9th, 2010
10:00 am
LOL…catlady, I was thinking how I would NOT want to be sitting in the same row with T, her 3 kids and her dog. I have enough stress in my own life and I try to relax once I get on the plane.
Does T have a young teen neighbor who would be happy to come over and let the dog out? We usually do this and pay them $15 per day for four thirty minute visits: 8/1/5/10. My daughter has done this for many of our neighbors too.
FYI…we DID take our 2 year old dog to the beach last week and she loved it. She hated the ocean last year but loved it this time. We drove. We rented a condo and the owner allowed us to take out dog…the patio went right out to a large grassy area. We put her crate right in the van and she could sit in there if she wanted, while we traveled. She preferred to sit on my daughter's lap. My daughter has frequently commented, since the dog, 'is this what it is like to have a baby…it is a lot of work…." Yes and babies are more work…you cannot leave them home alone….LOL.

Please don't fly with the dog. I think that putting him in a kennel would be best. I know a good one in Grayson that my parents have used for their dogs for over 20 years.
June 9th, 2010
10:08 am
Why take the dog? I mean, if you're moving or going somewhere for a long time maybe. But for a little trip or vacation? My dogs always suffer on vacation. I've taken them on trips to the mountains before (in the car) when we stay in cabins. They never eat while we are gone, they have digestive issues the whole vacation and are usually freaked out by the new surroundings. I quit doing it. Sure, I would like to have them with me, but what is better for me is not necessarily what is best for them. They are much happier staying with my mom or having my friends come over to dog-sit. Think about the dog's best interests. I'm sure that does not include a plane flight, in-cabin, or otherwise.
June 9th, 2010
10:09 am
My original post is gone, but my advice was to hire a good, recommended dogsitter for the dog's sake and everyone else's. Why on earth does Michael want the dog to come? If you MUST fly your dog somewhere, then do it, but if you don't have to -then don't torture the dog that way. They DO NOT enjoy it! We use two different dogsitters and pay between 10-13 per visit, so 20-30 a day. In summer I have them come 3 times per day. They also water plants, are a presence at your home, get your mail and turn lights on and off. OR -if there's a good doggie hotel like Wag A Lot near you -leave the doggie there. Those are usually much more expensive than a dogsitter though.
June 9th, 2010
10:12 am
Why don't you just have a dog sitter or neighbor look after your dog? The only way I'd take a pet on a plane was if I was moving permanently somewhere where it was not practical to drive. Why in the world would you want your dog to accompany you on a plane when (knowing how you seem to be) you will already be beyond stressed with your 3 kids?
June 9th, 2010
10:12 am
I travel often with my dog who is a 12 pound Shih Tzu mix and I've never had a problem. (he's been flying since he was ten weeks old if that makes a difference) I use a soft-sided carrier that looks similar to a duffle bag and he seems to love it. I do add a few drops of lavender oil to the bag prior to flying to help keep him calm though we've never had an issue.
If you choose to fly with your dog, get him used to being in the carrier. Add a toy and encourage him to go inside of it and sit for a few minutes at a time then work your way up to the actual duration of the flight. He will have to remain in the carrier for the entire flight (you'll have to take him out of the carrier at the security checkpoint) and in most airports (there are a few in the U.S. who have dog lounges) however, he will be able to see you from underneath the seat and he'll be able to smell your scent.
And all of this can be done without paying the unexplained $150+ r/t in-cabin pet fee if you're a rebel such as myself. :-)

10:17 am
@ Sunny…very good points but I do have one question:
ARE YOU ALSO TAKING THREE CHILDREN WHILE YOU ARE TRYING TO SMUGGLE THE DOG? ( per your last line or did I miss something)
Does anyone here think kids will be completely discreet about their doggy being in a carrier incognito?
Mine would not have been, for sure.
June 9th, 2010
10:27 am
…get the "smuggled" pet past the security check-in without the prescribed ticket/fee receipt?
June 9th, 2010
10:30 am
We have an 8lb poodle who travels with us about 10 times a year and is perfectly fine. We put her crate under the seat in front of us and when we leave the gate we take her out and put her between us under a small blanket and no one knows or notices. She is quiet and usually falls alseep. But, I would never take her on a trip with three kids, its just too much. We have smuggled her before as well…
June 9th, 2010
10:33 am
My 12 y/o daughter has EXTREME animal dander allergies and there would be an emergency landing if we were closed up in a plane where dogs and cats were present in the cabin. I hope Delta has taken this into consideration and have "pet friendly flights" notated and separate.
June 9th, 2010
10:33 am
TWG, you're crazy.
I flew with a dog once, but it was early in my dating life when I was just excited that a woman would go on a trip with me.
June 9th, 2010
10:40 am
@ cammi…my thoughts too. I love dogs but am very allergic to cats. If I sat next to a cat that was out of the carrier or with dander touching the seat, I would be sneezing my head off. As far as I know there is no "pet friendly flight policy" on any airline. Do they have a POOCH plane…I doubt it. If they still serve peanuts on the plane, with folks allergic to peanuts, I doubt they are flying pet friendly flight.
Perhaps someone else knows.
It might be a big issue if your beloved pet has been smuggled on and then causes someone to be violently ill…if the airline did not know you were taking your pet with you. I am curious as to what the fines are if your pet is not declared and then found out in flight. Not worth it to me.
June 9th, 2010
10:42 am
I actually fly with my dog (who is 6 pounds) once or twice a year. But just a quick flight up to my parents house and she remains with me on the plane and under the seat. I have actually switched to AirTran to fly with her as they are the only airline that hasn't upped their prices. I've thought about "smuggling" but haven't risked it yet, even though I think it would be easy to do as they never check if I have paid for her. Flying with her isn't the easiest thing to do (having to take her out going through security can be a hassle), but cheaper than boarding her all weekend. She just sleeps in her crate but tends to pant a lot on take off and landing due to anxiety. I feed her treats throughout the flight which seems to make things better. I don't think I would do anything longer than the 1 1/2 hour flight with out some meds for her and always worry about the potty thing b/c by the time you add up the airport time with flight time she is ready to go when we land.
June 9th, 2010
10:49 am
I think others bring up a VERY valid point -it's really different if you're flying with a small dog who will behave in a soft carrier IN the cabin! Don't check your dog unless it's an absolute necessity, and in this case it isn't!
June 9th, 2010
11:04 am
Holy Wow! We are certainly becoming a demanding, entitled, rude and uncivilized society! In one week's time there is talk of banning peanuts for a "few" with "deathly" allergies, a study about the growing number of sick and diseased that board planes, and now someone that wishes to torture themselves (and others) by taking their "precious" animal on vacation! I am saving up extra $$ so I can fly private instead of commercial next time.
June 9th, 2010
11:07 am
I am an animal lover with 2 chihuahuas and a shepherd mix my self, that being said, I am also very mindful of people and allergies. I, thankfully, am not allergic to anything, but I would never bring my animals in a closed area with people I do not know for the simple fact someone might be allergic or deathly allergic to animals and I would not know.A very close friend is one of these people who is allergic to fragrances, pet dander and I remember times she got sick in public due to the perfume/cologne someone just bathed in and is now sitting next to her in a restaurant, elevator, church, office place, wherever. So to subject someone to a confined airplane ride for hours I think is wrong.
Pets should not be able to fly in the cabins.
June 9th, 2010
11:09 am
As others have said, leave the dog at home and have someone come by and check on it..I also could not imagine you at the airport with 3 kids and a dog..
@MJG..That sounds like a really good deal on the teenager coming by..I can't believe that you can get a kid to come by for that amt. of money, guess I never thougth about what you pay someone to do things like that..
Theresa, good luck with whatever you decide to do..
June 9th, 2010
11:21 am
@ Becky, I am talking about a 13 -14 year old who will be with my dog for 2 hours ( each day) for $15….do most kids that age make that kind of money? If we are gone for a week, that is over $100 and then I usually give them a tip, if everything has gone well! This was last year and the years before, so maybe kids do make more now…anyone? I know some pay a college kid to LIVE in their house with their pets…what does that cost?
June 9th, 2010
11:23 am
I have a hard time thinking my dog is entitled to a vacation. This is the same animal that finds immense pleasure in seeking out, rolling in, and eating the deer crap in my yard. Oh…then she licks her butt. It's a dog's life…if she has to suffer a week at a kennel, I will lose absolutely NO sleep over that. Actually I'll probably sleep better not having to worry about whether her needs are being met in a hotel/condo/rental.
June 9th, 2010
11:33 am
Definitely find a dog sitter. Going on vacation with 3 kids is stressful enough, you don't need to add a dog to the mix.
June 9th, 2010
11:39 am
on top of the problems with flying with the dog, once you get there you'll have to deal with leaving the dog in the hotel while you are out. It could curtail how long you can be gone from the hotel And you will end up having to clean up his mess while you are on vacation. Not fun.
I would say 'no, absolutely not' to the idea of taking the dog and 3 kids by yourself. Maybe if you all go on vacation together some time the dog could go with you and Michael could look after it.
June 9th, 2010
11:41 am
@MJG my 15 year old would be thrilled to make $15 for a couple of visits to the neighbor's house each day. He's not old enough for a regular job so any way he can earn a few extra bucks is great. And $100 for the week is certainly reasonable.

…who wants the dog to come – hence, let him handle getting the mutt out there and back…
June 9th, 2010
11:45 am
Not having a dog in a carrier is dangerous. The ramp is no place for a dog. (The ramp is area where the plane is loaded and unloaded). Planes are big dangerous machines. Ask the widow of the woman who had her husband sliced in half by a propeller.
Do you not recall John Travolta's dogs recently? I do not advocating shooting dogs by the way.
Leave the dog in a nice Doggie Camp while you travel.

I've used Critter Sitters several times and love them–check them out. These professional pet sitters will come to your home once or twice a day, play with you pet, feed them, let them out etc and bring your mail in while you're gone. They're probably more expensive than the neighborhood kid but the ones I've used have been very trustworthy and reliable. It's much less stressful to my pets when they get to stay home instead of being boarded.

Pets should be banned in the cabin. Many people have pet allergies and it's unsanitary. End of story.

"DASH shipments have the highest boarding priority and fastest transit time of any Delta Cargo product." Which if I recall correctly (and I never took the ramp test when I was there) Is Checked bagged gets first priority, then the strollers etc that are left at the plane door to be unloaded first at the destination, then US mail if going, then paid Cargo (and obviously the pet gets a top bill on that, but human organs get higher), and the last is company mail.

June 9th, 2010
12:50 pm
Please, please, please doo not ever put any animal in the hold! Airlines have been known to lose animals, esp. dogs. The crate comes down the conveyor belt out of the plane's belly, hits the ground, the door springs open and the terrified pooch takes off for parts unknown. Many of these dogs are never found. Think about the kid's faces when they hear the dog made it but can't be located! Also, I had a friend who put her dog in the hold. She sat in first class and could hear him crying during the whole coast-to-coast flight. Terrible experience for both of them! I now use CRITTER SITTERS and they do a fabulous job. Such a relief to come home to a happy pooch!
June 9th, 2010

Do the dog a favor and find him a nice kennel to stay in while you are gone, or find a pet-sitter. He may miss you and stress out a little bit over that, but that is NOTHING compared to the stress some dogs experience while flying. At 16 lbs, the dog is going to be just a bit too big to be comfortably carried in the cabin, probably.
We had to fly our cats when we moved cross country — my husband moved ahead, I dealt with the movers, and then shipped the cats out to him. They spent a couple of days under the bed in the new house, but they survived quite nicely.
I wouldn't take a dog anywhere during the summer — too hot, and as easily as luggage gets lost, it's not a risk I'd be willing to take with my dog.
Find a nice kennel or pet sitter — it was a nice idea, Michael, but not very practical!
June 9th, 2010
12:56 pm
A few years ago, I flew from Atlanta to San Francisco with my cat. I knew she was a little high strung, so I took her to the vet and he gave her some kitty valum and away we went! My only complaint was having to take her out of her carry bag to go through security. I was afraid she would try to jump out of my arms or make a run for it.
About an hour after landing, the valum wore off and she felt better than I did.
I bought her bag (resembeled a messenger bag, but made for traveling with pets) from LillianVernon.com. The cat and the bag fit perfectly under the seat.
I would absolutely do it again!

ROCHESTER, Minn. (KTTC) -- For years, test scores have indicated a need for an increased emphasis in science and math, and a hands-on approach to learning is paving the way for how schools may teach science in the future.
STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering and Math and a push for a greater STEM emphasis in schools is picking up steam in the area. One summer camp is offering kids a chance to explore that world like they never had before.
Can science lead you to solve a crime?
The answer is yes. That is just one of many examples of what a week-long camp is trying to show area 3rd, 4th and 5th graders.
"At school," says KeAndre, a 3rd grader who lives in Rochester, "you don't get to do the kind of things you do at STEM Camp."
The third annual STEM Camp gives students the chance to realize that science and math can be fun.
"They are having a lot of fun, absolutely," says Colleen Maddox, the Community and Youth Program Director at Rochester Community and Technical College. "If the sound level could be measured in here and we had a meter, I'm sure you could tell that the kids were having a great time. So, the kids are learning about finger prints, foot prints, they're learning about blood sample examinations. We are having the kids actually program the robots, build the robots, but also to do research. Does Wikipedia give you everything you need to know for research? I think not, and that's what they're learning, how to do different research."
Area schools are jumping into the latest STEM movement. The Austin Public School District's new addition will have a heavy emphasis on STEM education.
"What we want to do is stimulate the children's interest in these four components," explains Maddox. "So, not only are they excited about it at the elementary level, but they carry that into their high school, college level and certainly into their future career."
The kids think they are in for a week of fun, and little do they know that every thing they do is teaching them new and exciting things.
"Yes, I'm learning much more, I'm having much more fun than sitting in a classroom for eight hours every day listening to a teacher talk," shares Noah, a student from Dodge Center. "We get to do different things, we get to go into different rooms and do a bunch of cool stuff like that."
The kids at the camp go in with an open mind about science and math and end up leaving with a world of new possibilities for the future.

Where is Nokia Heading?
Fani is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
In 1998, Nokia (NYSE: NOK) was considered to be the world's leading mobile phone manufacturer, a position that managed to keep for almost a decade. However, fierce competition within the telecommunications arena caused Nokia to lose its crown. It went from being every household's most common brand name to a "fallen angel" fighting for a revival. Nevertheless, despite the overall bearish sentiment over the company's future prospects, I do believe that there still is hope for this struggling giant.
Falling down the hill
The major hit came with the smartphone revolution and the introduction of Apple's (NASDAQ: AAPL) iPhone in 2007. Since then, Nokia's market penetration has suffered a steep deterioration, combined with a significant value loss that has left longtime investors praying for a miracle.
At the moment, despite considerable progress in boosting sales volumes, the firm has a steep hill to climb before claiming a meaningful market share.
According to the latest sales data from Kantar Worldpanel ComTech, Windows-based handsets have started to gain respectable market acceptance in several European countries. In particular, for the last three months of 2012, Nokia's sales in Britain, the country with the highest smartphone penetration in the region, experienced an over 50% acceleration. However, Windows phones' sales in the top 5 European markets (Germany, UK, France, Italy, and Spain) accounted for roughly 5.4% of all smartphone sales.
In the tough U.S. market, Nokia keeps struggling to attract customers' interest. According to Kantar's estimates, the clear winner is Apple, which appears to be stealing share straight from Google (NASDAQ: GOOG). About 20% of iOS sales came from former Android users. For the last quarter of 2012, Apple maintained the lead and claimed a market share of over 50%. Google's Android operating system remained stable compared to last year and accounted for 44.2% of the market. Windows OS held the third position and claimed a below 3% market share.
For the holiday quarter, Nokia's North America devices and services volumes were up by 40% compared to the same period in 2011. However, Nokia actually sold less than one million handsets or a fraction of the tens of millions Android and iPhone devices sold for the period. For the full year of 2012, net sales in the U.S. market accounted for 7% of Nokia's total sales marking a small increase of 3% from 2011. The company's sales performance was weak considering the sizable marketing investment on WP 8 in the United States and Canada. Nokia confirmed that smart devices volumes were negatively affected by supply constraints. Hence, on the positive side, sales volumes did not match the actual customer demand.
The benefit of the doubt
Over the past couple of years, Nokia has been committed to a transformation process aiming to strengthen its financial position and regain investors' trust. So, since Nokia is in the middle of a turnaround effort, its quarter-over-quarter financial and operating performance provides the best indication of whether its business strategy has started to pay off.
The firm's latest earnings release shows signs of improvement, with its non-IFRS results leaving room for optimism. Non-IFRS results exclude one time charges, such as charges associated with restructuring activities, and asset amortization. Thus, they are a measure of underlying performance.
During the past year, Nokia managed to narrow its net losses and somehow control its cash bleeding. It ended the last quarter of 2012 with underlying operating profitability of almost 8% and strengthened its net cash position by €800 million sequentially to €4.4 billion.
These figures do not suggest that Nokia has avoided the danger and is set for a rally this year. Nonetheless, the quarterly improvement of its liquidity could suggest that the company is on the road to recovery. It might be at the early stages of recovery, but still, Nokia seems determined to balance its accounts and shape a gainful outlook. It decided to suspend its dividend payments, and, even though, this was negative news for the market, for Nokia, it was a major step towards financial discipline.
Looking ahead
Looking forward into the future, the company is aiming to capitalize upon opportunities that could generate substantial returns.
The recent deal with China Mobile Limited (NYSE: CHL) is going to be a varying factor in Nokia's regional competitive position. The leading Chinese mobile services provider agreed to carry the Lumia 920T, the first Lumia handset based on WP 8 software designed for the Chinese market. China Mobile's network has prevented it from carrying the iPhone. This means that, even though China Unicom and China Telecom sell subsidized iPhones, China Mobile's immense subscriber base gives Nokia a unique competitive advantage. As of December 2012, the company had over 700 million subscribers, including almost 88 million users of 3G services.
Moreover, Nokia is gaining ground in the mapping world, where it has scored noteworthy wins. A year ago, the firm's Location Platform was selected by Ford for innovation projects. Just last week, Nokia beat Google to become Toyota's mapping supplier in Europe.
Overall, Nokia has a long way to go before it can augment its competitiveness and support robust revenue growth. Nonetheless, it has not quit the game, and is doing the best it can for a dynamic comeback. I believe that Nokia's transformation policy, along with the growth potential arising from its strategic alliances, will eventually reward faithful shareholders.

X.Org Server 1.11 RC2 Is Released
Published on 04 August 2011 06:24 AM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
Comment On This Article
Keith Packard has tagged X.Org Server 1.11 RC2. The X.Org Server 1.11 release is imminent and the RC2 marks the end of development except for critical fixes.
The X.Org Server 1.11 RC2 tag was made via
this Git commit
. Only critical fixes will be accepted until the release later in the month.
Compared to X.Org Server 1.10, the 1.11 release doesn't add too much to the table besides fixes and other small enhancements. Ubuntu 11.10 isn't even bothering to upgrade to the xorg-server 1.11 release.
Following the X.Org Server 1.11 release, there is then the
X.Org Developers' Conference
in Chicago.

RNK in the Community
A Global Company with a Small Town Heart
The leadership of RNK Communications believes that big ambitions and a global presence aren't enough to make a company great. As RNK has extended its presence and risen in stature, the company has maintained deep roots in the local community. The small-town spirit of caring and generosity is still very much alive at RNK. The company continually strives to find new ways to be a good neighbor. Its support of charitable organizations, such as Ronald MacDonald House, Little Brothers of the Poor, and Friends of the Elderly attests its broad and inclusive sense of social responsibility. From blood donation, toy drives, and support for recreational sports teams to helping a group of kids raise money for a pet's surgery, service to others is fundamental to the workplace culture of RNK.
Massachusetts Association of the Blind
The leadership at RNK Communications believes in giving back to its home community of Massachusetts. In partnership with Vision Community Services (VCS), a division of the Massachusetts Association of the Blind (MAB), the company has established two voice services dedicated to enriching the lives of visually impaired individuals. VCS Connections and Newsline provide community information and readings of local newspapers, as well as grocery coupons, to help visually impaired people stay active and involved in their local communities.
United States Organizations (USO)
RNK is proud of its long-term partnership with the USO. The company supports the USO's efforts to sustain the morale of men and women in uniform with a number of free calling programs for military personnel. Over the years, RNK has continued to find new opportunities to use its expertise in next-generation technologies to help members of the armed forces stay connected with loved ones and the larger military community. In October 2006, RNK equipped the USO website with an interactive discussion forum, USO New England Talk.™ New England Talk enables military personnel and their families to share their concerns with a worldwide support network of their peers. Other outreach efforts include RNK's Connect for Freedom Plan, which provides unlimited free calling to families and friends of active duty members stationed away from home. The company also supplies patients at local Veterans Hospitals with free call cards.
Starlight Children's Foundation
Brightening the lives of seriously ill children is a source of great pleasure for everyone who works at RNK. Each holiday season RNK gives hospitalized children in Boston, Massachusetts, and Providence, Rhode, Island, special calling cards, so they can ring up Santa's workshop and personally read him their wish list. RNK's ongoing commitment the community's children also includes the donation of art supplies and sponsorship and participation in fundraisers and events for various New England schools throughout the year.

Home Repair Information
We offer free home repairs to Saratoga County homeowners who are elderly, disabled, low-income or a veteran. In 2010, Rebuilding Together and volunteers from the community assisted 75 homeowners and non-profits with needed repairs.
Our eligibility criteria:
- Applicant lives in Saratoga County, owns home and is owner-occupied
- Priority is given to those who have lived in the home for two years or more
- Household income is 200% of poverty or less
- Have no outstanding real estate taxes; mortgage (or lot payment) is paid and current
- Homeowner is unable to do the work themselves.
- Priority is given to the elderly and/or disabled or veterans
Rebuilding Together previews the houses, selects those appropriate for our program and carefully devises a scope of work for each house. A House Captain is assigned and a crew of volunteers works under the guidance of that House Captain from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm on Rebuilding Day.
All labor is volunteered, some are skilled trade's people, skilled do-it-your-selfers and many are unskilled. Work that is done includes scraping, painting, electrical and plumbing repairs, carpentry work, weather stripping and landscaping. We are unable to perform roof repairs. We do require that all able bodied homeowners and family members join in the work. If selected, homeowners are required to attend a homeowner orientation.
We will preview houses and continue to do so until we have our quota of 30-40 selected spring projects. Projects will be selected by a preview committee in February. All applicants will be notified after that time. Please realize that we are unable to help all homeowners who apply. Projects are done throughout the year.
We require a third-party referral source be included in your application. This reference is someone who can be contacted in the event we are unable to reach the homeowner. Please do not submit your application without the name of a referral source. Incomplete applications will not be returned or considered. Please call with questions.

Bird man - 11/17/12 - Photo by Carlos Ortiz
I was assigned to photograph some businesses in Fairport when after arriving at one of them, "Hanging Around Frame & Art", I saw 3 year old macaw "Skittles" turn on its back for owner Jose De La Rosa to caress its belly. It was very cute to see a bird acting like a little kid wanting attention and showing affection.

Firefighters are busy putting the final touches on the landscaping and racing the clock to get the job finished before seasonal rains begin, Battalion Chief Mike Jarske said.
The station contains three to four firefighters daily during the dry season, he said.
The station will be regularly staffed until at least November 18, he said, calling that date for staffing late due to the dry fall season so far.
The fire station is part of the Santa Clara Unit of the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection or CalFire. The Unit handles most wild land fires in Santa Clara, Alameda, Contra Costa, West San Joaquin and West Stanislaus Counties.
The Del Puerto Station also serves as the maintenance hub for the whole unit, serving more than 40 fire trucks.
CalFire is expecting to hold an open house to showcase the stations new renovation features in spring, Jarske said.

Wednesday, February 20 at 1:30 p.m. - Anna Karenina (2012); Starring Keira Knightley, Aaron Johnson, and Jude Law; Rated R; 130 minutes. Closed captioned for the hearing impaired.
The story unfolds in its original late-19th-century Russia high-society setting and powerfully explores the capacity for love that surges through the human heart, from the passion between adulterers to the bond between a mother and her children. As Anna questions her happiness, change comes to her family, friends, and community.
"A handsome, grandly theatrical reimagining of the Tolstoy novel starring his muse, Keira Knightley." -- Lou Lumenick, New York Post

Application Deadline Approaching for MN Health Professional Loan Forgiveness Programs
December 1, 2010 is the deadline for MN Health Professional Loan Forgiveness Programs through the Office of Rural Health and Primary Care at the Minnesota Department of Health.
According to the Office of Rural Health and Primary Care, the purpose of Minnesota's Loan Forgiveness Program is the recruitment and retention of health care professionals to needed areas and facilities within Minnesota.
Applications are available online. Note that most programs require applicants to apply while still enrolled in a program of study or residency.
Loan forgiveness is an important benefit for health care professionals as well as health care facilities and communities experiencing a shortage of access to primary health care services.

English food writer Clarissa Hyman's latest book, The Spanish Kitchen, gives you the best of both worlds: a beautifully illustrated cookbook with stunning illustrations worthy of any coffee table; and a cookbook that is so well written, it will serve as an authoritative resource book for anyone who would like to learn more about the fresh, approachable food of Spain.
Clarissa Hyman's writing is a joy to read, and her grasp of the subject material is impressive. She frames her recipes intelligently, dividing the chapters by region and ingredients. The selection of gorgeous photographs reflects her knowledge of the products and the areas in which they are made. It is full of lush pictures of historic structures and soaring cathedrals. Her pictures of people in the small villages are particularly appealing.
Among the ingredients discussed by the author are manchego cheese, which she uses in wonderful fritters, and the mussels of Galicia, appearing here in a sprightly entree flavored with saffron. From Valencia, Hyman chooses to highlight oranges, and the recipes here for an orange and avocado salad and a duck in orange sauce were both delicious. This is a great book to browse when you have time to plan leisurely meals.

Of the challenges that could keep Google from reaching its goal of using Google Docs to move into the enterprise, Microsoft may be one of the biggest barriers.
Google and rival Microsoft are battling on several fronts: search, browsers, operating systems, and office software. And the office software front is heating up as Google continues to push Google Docs to the forefront of cloud computing and Microsoft readies to move its ubiquitous Office suite into the cloud as well.
[ Google sees Docs as the key to the new, more social corporate workplace. | Get the no-nonsense explanations and advice you need to take real advantage of cloud computing in the InfoWorld editors' 21-page Cloud Computing Deep Dive PDF special report. | Stay up on the cloud with InfoWorld's Cloud Computing Report newsletter. ]
However, Dave Girouard, president of Google's enterprise division, tells Computerworld that when it comes to competition, there's Microsoft and then there's ... well, there's Microsoft. But he seems to be really looking forward to locking horns with his Redmond, Wash., counterparts.
In a one-on-one interview, Girouard talks about competing with a company known for its office apps, Google's own growth in the enterprise, and what he thinks Google's advantages are over Microsoft.
What's your strategy for Google Docs? Where are you going with it?
Docs is part of a larger strategy. It's a component of the larger suite that's about to get radically bigger. Generally, we are absolutely focused on changing the way people work, providing them tools to work seamlessly across time and space.
We're doing that by leveraging what we refer to as the consumerization of IT. Focus on apps that are fast and easy to use, like the ones you'd use on your own.
How much larger is the suite going to get?
We announced [last week] that Google Apps, which is comprised of about nine different apps, will later this year have more than 90 different applications, like Picasa, Google Reader. These will all become part of the Google Apps suite. We are adding a lot of capabilities to Google Apps this year. Users and IT administrators wanted access to more Google services. This has been in the works for more than a year because it's a pretty fundamental redesign of how our accounts are structured.
How is this going to affect Google Docs in particular?
It will bring a lot of other capabilities to Google Docs. You can pick photos out of Picasa and put them in Google Docs. Buzz will become part of Google Apps and could be integrated into Google Docs, for sure.
What's your strategy for getting Google Docs into the enterprise?

Aeros win first round, advance to play Milwaukee
Defenseman Marc-Andre Bergeron underwent successful back surgery this morning. It'll take six to eight weeks for Bergeron to recover.
The Houston Aeros beat the Peoria Rivermen 5-2 tonight in Game 7 to advance to the second round of the AHL playoffs against Milwaukee (or Craig Leipold's current farm team vs. Craig Leipold's old farm team). Maxim Noreau broke a 2-2 tie in the third. Here is the link.
If you want to make a road trip — like I may do — the Aeros play Games 1 and 2 in Milwaukee on Thursday and Saturday.
The Aeros' GM is Tom Lynn. The Admirals' GM is Paul Fenton.
The winner of the series becomes the Wild's next GM.
Lynn vs. Fenton
