Show Me the Money - What You Need to Know to Find Your Dream Job as a Graphic Designer or Web Designer
By Lois Knight
Graduation day has come and gone, leaving a sense of stark reality in the form of a stack of monthly bills, student loans and the need for some form of monetary stability. But where do you start looking? Are you looking for something with benefits and job perks, or are you in need of a little more flexibility? Do you already have a job and just need an upgrade or are you considering a cross country move to a warmer climate? All of these things have to be considered carefully to survive in the world of graphic design. Some will be fairly simple decisions and some will not, depending on your own circumstances.
Most colleges offer job placement assistance, and a good place to start is the job placement counselors. These counselors can assist you in polishing a resume or helping you write one for the first time. They can offer job seeking tips, and point out potential businesses looking for qualified applicants to fill jobs of all sorts. Most colleges now require you have a completed internship before allowing you to graduate as well. This will enable you to offer hands on experience to compliment your credentials. And, because it is done close to the end of the program, many are paid internships leading to full time positions after graduation. However, there are no guarantees in life and no one is going to drop your dream job in your lap as a general rule. You have to earn it or at least find it.
But how do you figure out what your dream job is? If you have gotten a degree in graphics, there is a pretty good chance you've gotten the opportunity to try out a variety of possibilities but if you plan to do this for the next twenty years or more, you might consider looking a little deeper. This means taking a good hard look at your strengths and weaknesses. Are you an average designer with an eye for spotting flaws in layout or spelling? Do you enjoy working with preflight output or getting up close and personal with a printing press? Some of these jobs may not be in demand as much as they used to be, therefore, they command a premium wage, but you need to be aware they may be phased out somewhere down the road. Simply make sure you are multi faceted enough to adapt as your industry changes. The more you have to offer, the more choices you will have. And last but not least, consider the kind of money you need to make to survive. If you are used to living on a million dollar budget, you might not want to take a job that pays twenty thousand.
It all seems a little scary when you have to make career decisions that will impact your life and the lives of your family for years to come, but if you take it one step at a time and stay honest with your objectives, you may surprise yourself by landing the job of your dreams, just like I did. Let's take a look at some of the things you need to consider.
I can't stress enough how important it is to know what your talents are. Sit down and make a list of what you think you're good at. It can be something as simple as spelling or as complex as preflighting. When you're done, is it a long or short list? Now go ask your instructors, classmates, current employers and mentors what they think your strengths and weaknesses are. You may think you are the greatest photographer to hit the scene in twenty years, only to find out from your peers you actually shine at layout. And you may think you are a genius with advertising campaigns, but your peers say you are never quiet long enough to know what the client wants. By asking the hard questions you will be much more aware of what your clients perceive. You may not be able to see something because it is too close. It's kind of like not seeing the forest for the trees.
Once you know what you're really good at, you can start narrowing down the field of possibilities and focusing in on those talents you would like to emphasize. When I created my own list I indicated I enjoyed working on layouts and creating compelling ad campaigns, but I loved to write. So I chose to become a writer. If you find your niche, then you will find a job that will stick.
But how do you know if your niche will be profitable for you and where money is to be made. I decided to take a closer look at three distinct career choices and where in the United States they are most profitable. I chose New York, NY, Houston TX, Los Angeles CA and Des Moines IA. I have a working knowledge of Des Moines and Houston but wanted to make sure we covered a wide enough range to give a more accurate viewpoint. Here's what I found out when I compared entry level jobs in all four cities against what the national average is at CareerBuilder.com and Monster.com
As you can see there is quite a bit of difference depending on where you choose to live and work. The more demand there is for a particular profession and the fewer people that are training for these jobs creates a higher salary. The opposite effect will take place in an area that has a large work base of similarly qualified people. The wages go down and the competition for what is available goes up. It is for this reason you need to do your homework. Make sure the area you are in or are considering being in will be profitable for you. If not, make sure you are adaptable to your surroundings.
Stay current with job trends as well as education requirements. Just a few years ago the software programs used by professional graphic designers were CorelDraw, Quark, and Dreamweaver. But as the industry has evolved these have been replaced by many with Adobe CS3 and similar programs designed to increase efficiency and speed. However, if you go to work for a smaller company you may still find these programs in daily use purely for economic reasons as well as it is what they know and trust. You have to ask the right questions going in and be adaptable to any situation once you are there.
No matter what choices you make along the way make sure they are what you love to do. Accepting anything else would be second best and will eventually fall short of your dreams. If you are truly passionate about what you do it is not longer a J-O-B, it is a career choice. Make sure your choice a worthy one.

EAST LANSING, MI (WTVB) - The verdict is back in the case of Saugatuck State Representative Bob Genetski, who fought drunk driving charges. The East Lansing jury took just two hours to return the guilty verdict Tuesday Genetski's Attorney says they will not appeal. The Republican sat stonefaced as the verdict was delivered. He could get up to 93-days and a fine, but as a first time offender, he isn't expected to see any jail-time. The verdict will come down just a few weeks before he is due to face reelection.
Prosecutor Stuart Dunning says no man is above the law. Genetski's attorney says he has advised his client not to speak with the media until after he is sentenced. Stuart Peet of Shelbyville is the Democrat who is running against him.

Design by Metaphor
by Jack Zeal
22 Reader CommentsBack to the Article
I think having the client give existing web site examples as design direction is great. However, the designer shouldn't leave it at that and start designing. What the client likes about the site may very well differ from the designer's view.
Ask "Why?" to clarify.
Using the eBay example, if you ask the client why he chose the site, he might confess it's really the position of the logo, menu, sub navigation, etc. that grabs him. You might have been thinking primarily of the colors, fonts, and image treatments…and you would have wasted time trying to emulate aspects the client never felt passionate about in the first place, and at the same time, downplay elements the client really wanted.
Enjoyed this article (just having a little trawl through the back issues here)
I have to agree with Peter here. Client similes are useful for explaining design decisions and helping the client visualize graphical elements and process but it's really your job as the designer to ensure that the final product fulfills their key business objectives. When they say "like ebay" they also mean "successful like ebay."

Dear Ma'ams and Sirs,
Like most of y'all here on the Forum, I spend some time and effort reporting spam. Preferably, "fresh spam."
Life is complicated / time is short. Perhaps vice versa. And it's been a long time since I've read anything about spam in the press. Goodness knows, Spamcop doesn't provide any information regarding how the struggle is going.
Therefore, I would like to ask if anyone knows whether spending all the time and effort is worth it? Or are we just exercising our keyboards?

Hi nei1_j,
Well, you've been around for a long time and your stamina to keep on reporting throughout is wonderous to see - thanks for that and you don't need to be told "do no more than that with which you are comfortable if you want to last the distance."
You may have noted others having the occasional crisis of confidence over the years and the variable spam-fighting experiences they've had and conclusions they've drawn**. The good news is - spam by some measures seems to be on the decline (using a Cisco/IronPort source):
It takes a multi-facetted approach to whack all those moles and, (IMO) indeed, there is a place for SpamCop and SpamCop reporters in all of that because SC fills a unique slot, providing an early warning to mail services and picking up the stuff that evades spam traps (refer http://forum.spamcop.net/forums/index.php?...p;f=6&id=45) - and we can be reasonably confident there would be a resurgence of spam should effort along ANY axis of current endeavour substantially reduce.
The elephant in the room is the bandwidth wasted in spam delivery attempts - wouldn't be surprised if spam being sent, as opposed to that being delivered, might be still trending upwards (the IronPort table linked above indicates that is fairly constant - and STILL of far greater volume than real mail - but that is just an estimate).
SpamCop feedback? Well, the stats pages are meant to cover that:
The indication, to me, is of continuing substantial activity and that can viewed in the context of archived results:
**Might be worth noting some of the other "crisis of confidence" topics while we're at it - things change (but maybe some don't):
Anyway, I'm sure others will want to have their say and you will have some further comments as well.
Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose

There is no doubt reporting spam does fix security problems that are causing you to be spammed and for me reduces attacks to mainly from Brazil where they don't ever stop.
Gmail don't report but are very effective in keeping spam out of your inbox

On the podcast over the last couple of weeks, I've given a shout-out to my friend Linda who was helping my friend Kate train for the Los Angeles Marathon that took place last Sunday. According to a great email from Linda, I'm happy to report that Kate not only finished the 26.2 miles, she actually placed 77th out of 455 women in her age group. I call that A Top 100 finish! Way to go, Kate!
And Linda, you are a true Satellite Sister for keeping her company on all those training runs. We all need Satellite Sisters like you to keep us on track, literally and figuratively. If I had anymore Satellite Sister bathrobes in my closet, I would send one along. But I don't, so here's as Atta Girl.
After reading about Kate's success, it got me thinking of the two most basic strategies with which I approach tasks: the marathon or the sprint.
The Sprint: There are a million little projects that I can gear myself up for because I know the effort will be short and concentrated. I can go like crazy for a few weeks ( or days) , execute the plan and then be done. Like the cast party for Peter Pan that I just volunteered to organize ( Not host! Not again) . Some pizza + some paper goods + a few hours of exerted effort= Completed Cast Party. Or Team Mom for a season. Or an all out effort to re-do my websites and social media presence. Or putting together a marketing plan for a potential sponsor. Short, concerted efforts that require my full attention, but I can see the finish line at the start.
The Marathon: Others, like writing a novel or starting a business or chairing a fundraiser ( which I've never done!) require months, even years of sustained effort. This is where pacing and mental fortitude come into play. And, accepting the timeline which can be daunting. In terms of my novel, I'm learning that the second book might not get written any faster than the first. Helen of Pasadena took me a year and it looks like Book #2 will take roughly the same amount of time. I have people everyday asking , " When is the next book coming out?" Frankly, it gets a little depressing to say, "Maybe 2013?" But that's the truth. I have to write every word. That's juts how books get written. And wishing it would go faster doesn't make the work actually go faster.
The Sprint that becomes The Marathon: I'm fine with the marathons if I know they are going to be marathons. But, we've all had projects that looked like sprints turn into long distances races. I'm thinking of any home remodelling we'cve ever done. Or caregiving for elderly parents that becomes a sustained effort when, at first, it looked like a short-term situation.Yes, I'd like to lose that 20 pounds gained in 2006 in six weeks, but it's actually taken me the better part of the year to do it. The truth is, if I had known it would take so long, I might never have started. So sometimes, ignorance is bliss. But, I'm almost there so I know the effort was worth it.
What's you approach to your Do The Work project? Is it a marathon or a sprint? Or was it a sprint that's become a marathon? And don't forget the trap of running too many sprints while you're still training for that marathon. Too many running metaphors? I'll stop now because I'm winded.
Embracing my chaos , Lian

No more searching under the lift for your mittens.
You love mittens, but you're sick of dropping them off the lift every time you have to take them off to make a phone call or light up a left-handed cigarette. Avoid that with the Celtek Chroma Snowboard Mitten. The Wunderzip palm zipper allows you to open up the top half of the mitten so you can do what you need to do with your fingers without taking it all the way off.
- StormDry 15K-rated waterproof insert blocks out snow and wind while still allowing your hand to breathe
- DWR-treated nylon shell repels water, and PU palm is sticky for holding grabs
- Tricot lining wicks moisture away from your skin when you get hot hands
- Hook-and-loop closure neoprene cuff is comfy and low-profile to slip under sleeves
- Wunderzip palm zipper lets you free your fingers without taking you mitten off

Had to return these because the zipper ripped on the first run of the day after bailing on a small jump. They weren't even all that warm. These may be cheap but you get what you pay for. Don't bother with these.
Pretty rad

So these mittens are pretty sweet. Kept me warm without a problem in about 28 degree weather. The wunder zips are pretty cool and convenient but I think that there should be a flap covering the inside of the zipper like there is on the outside because some cold air definitely does leak in. You can't really feel it when you are riding because you are moving around more but it would be nice if they were air tight on those cold lift rides. They got a little bit wet too. However I have the 2011 model and I think that these newer ones are more waterproof, so I wouldn't worry about it if you are getting these ones. Over all, freaking sweet mitts.
Flip OUT!

The Chromas still have the signature WUNDER ZIP! So comfy, warm and dry. I love my Day of the Dead printed mitts. Mittens are the way to go!

MGMT Tickets
MGMT is a genre-bending psychedelic synth pop band that was formed in Middletown, Connecticut at Wesleyan University.
Its band members are Benjamin Goldwasser, Andrew VanWyngarden, Matt Asti, Will Berman, and James Richardson.
Hank Sullivant was a past member who was responsible for guitar. Benjamin Goldwasser and Andrew VanWyngarden are the core members of the group. They lived in the same dormitory and they made a few songs together before finally forming a band. The core members started by creating rote replications of the cuts they loved, this was a collection that included, Suicide, David Bowie, Pavement, Pink Floyd, Royal Trux, The Flaming Lips, Prince and Neil Young. They released Time to Pretend, EP, after which they signed with Columbia records They released Oracular Spectacular in digital format before finally releasing the physical album three months later. The album was at position 60 at its peak on the billboard chart. It was also in the UK top 20 and Australian top 20.The band has released three albums, Oracular Spectacular, Congratulations and MGMT. The MGMT in concert do attract large crowds and their popularity has contributed to their financial success.
The band has collaborated with Kid Cudi, a rapper and are featured on the track Pursuit of Happiness. Kid Cudi got a nomination for the Best Hip-Hop video on the 2010 MTV VMA,s for his song Pursuit of Happiness. The band also collaborated with Beck on the album Songs of Leonard Cohen.
The Union for a Popular Movement Party compensated MGMT for using the song kids without the permission of the band. The money from the compensation was donated to an artists, rights organization.
MGMT's biggest year had to be 2008. They were featured on seemingly endless festival tickets. They played at SXSW, Austin City Limits, Bonnaroo, Coachella, Reading, Roskilde, Leeds, T in the Park, and many more. The group toured the world playing before millions of fans. MGMT even opened for Radiohead, M.I.A., and Beck.
This year has been nearly as eventful. They again played at a summer full of festivals and have even been opening for Paul McCartney on his Summer Live '09 Tour. MGMT has been adding a few songs to the set from their upcoming album, Congratulations, which they hope will take them from an underground sensation to mainstream success.
OnlineSeats will have the MGMT tickets for their long list of festivals and their gigs as opening acts in addition to their own 2010 promotional tour.

BRETHREN is a fabulously rich and exciting novel set on the eve of the last Crusade, at the end of the thirteenth century. Before young Will Campbell can take his place in the all-powerful Order of the Knights Templar, he faces a long, hard apprenticeship to the foul-tempered scholar, Everard. As he struggles to survive in the harsh discipline of the Temple, Will must try to make sense of his own tragic past, the dangerous mystery that surrounds Everard, and his confused feelings for Elwen, the strong-willed young woman whose path seems always to cross his own. Meanwhile, a new star is rising in the East. A ruthless fighter and brilliant tactician, the former slave Baybars has become one of the greatest generals and rulers of his time. Haunted by his early life, he is driven by an unquenchable desire to free his people from the European invaders of his homeland. These two men are destined to collide, as Templar Knight and Muslim warrior, in that extraordinary clash of civilizations known in the West as the Crusades.

I prefer to build single page web applications and I also make web performance optimization a 1st class feature in my architecture. This means I need to have the entire application's markup available when the user first loads the site, but at the same time I don't want 'all' the markup delivered to the client each and every time. I can do this because I store each view's markup in the browser's localStorage. I explained the basic mechanism a couple of years ago.

• Publisher: William Morrow Paperbacks; Reissue edition (January 2, 2013)
A generation has been lost on the Western Front. The dead have been buried, a harsh peace forged, and the howl of shells replaced by the wail of saxophones as the Jazz Age begins. But ghosts linger—that long-ago golden summer of 1914 tugging at the memory of Martin Rilke and his British cousins, the Grevilles.
From the countess to the chauffeur, the inhabitants of Abingdon Pryory seek to forget the past and adjust their lives to a new era in which old values, social codes, and sexual mores have been irretrievably swept away. Martin Rilke throws himself into reporting, discovering unsettling political currents, as Fenton Wood-Lacy faces exile in faraway army outposts. Back at Abingdon, Charles Greville shows signs of recovery from shell shock and Alexandra is caught up in an unlikely romance.Circles of Time captures the age as these strongly drawn characters experience it, unfolding against England's most gracious manor house, the steamy nightclubs of London's Soho, and the despair of Germany caught in the nightmare of anarchy and inflation. Lives are renewed, new loves found, and a future of peace and happiness is glimpsed—for the moment.
About the Author:
Born in Hollywood, California, Phillip Rock lived in England with his family until the blitz of 1940. He spent his adult years in Los Angeles and published three novels before the Passing Bells series: Flickers, The Dead in Guanajuato, andThe Extraordinary Seaman. He died in 2004.
My Opinion:
Circles of Time is the second book in The Passing Bells Trilogy (you can read my review of The Passing Bells). This book picks up a few years after the end of WWI as each of the characters the reader met in the first book struggles to adjust to life in a world turned upside down by a war that killed millions.
Abingdon Pryory is being rebuilt by Lord Greville exactly as it was before the war. He plans to move back there once the renovations are done despite the fact that Lady Greville does not seem as anxious to move back to the country and the large house. Especially since their son Charles is in hospital suffering from what we now know as post traumatic shock syndrome. Their daughter Alexandra is back in England from Canada after what they consider to be a disastrous life choice and Lord Greville barely acknowledges her presence. Fenton Wood-Lacy butt heads with the upper echelons of Her Majesty's Army and is being encouraged to retire but he wants no other job so he accepts a posting that is supposed to be the end of his career leaving his pregnant wife with their two daughters to await him in England.
But this book I think is truly Martin Rilke's tale. Having written his book which told the truth about the true horrors of the war he is finally ready to leave his wife's grave in France and come back to England and further his career in journalism. He is the driver of this part of the trilogy and he is the perfect linchpin being friends to most and related to the rest of the main characters. The book is told mostly through Martin's eyes - not all of it, but most of it.
Just as with The Passing Bells I found myself completely wrapped up in the lives of these characters. In some ways even more so because they were like old friends. I felt the pain of the loss of some of them and was horrified by the aftereffects of the war on the people and the countries. But peace was not to last forever as history showed us and this book ends just as Hitler is starting to spout his ugly rhetoric.
I've given this a slightly lower rating than The Passing Bells because of the last third of the book. Too much wrapped up much too quickly in my opinion. The first book and the beginning of this book was so rich in character and detail I felt that so much happened so quickly and without all of that wonderful attention to what the characters were feeling and to the history of the time. It's as if the author was just ready to move on to the next book and needed to tie up loose ends.
A minor complaint indeed when applied to the whole of story so far. I am very much looking forward to the finale in A Future Arrived.

Fitness Friday
Even though I had dinner plans last night, I managed to fit in a quick 1.5 miles at the track. It was dark by the time I was finished but I got to run/walk to the most beautiful sunset I've seen in a long time.
The track I chose was dirt and gravel which sucked because after the freezing and thaw we had this week, it was like running in sand. <—-Not fun.
But I've completed my first week of my run/walk program and I'm feeling good about it. My Wednesday workout made it clear that running on the treadmill is easier but sucks more. Easier because you don't really have to propel yourself forward you just have to lift up your feet. Suckier because being outside is so much better and because running in a completely straight line is apparently not my forte!
Walked 3/4 lap, ran 1/4 lap. Repeat x4. Walked 1/2 mile.
Next week I'm supposed to step it up to running 1/2 a lap. I don't know if this is going to be possible but I'm going to try.

The village took its name from the Andrea family which settled on the river and built a Russian Orthodox church. In 1903, Jesuit missionaries set up a mission 90 miles downriver at "Akulurak" to educate and care for the children orphaned by the flu epidemic of 1900-01. Akulurak means "in between place," aptly describing the village, which was on an island in a slough connecting two arms of the Yukon River. The mission school flourished, and by 1915 there were 70 full-time students. Over the years, the slough surrounding Akulurak silted in severely. In 1948, the villagers decided to move to higher ground. Materials from an abandoned hotel built during the gold rush were used to construct the new mission and several village homes at the present site. In 1949, an unused 15' by 30' building and other building materials from Galena Air Force Station were barged to Saint Mary's by Father Spills, a Jesuit priest. These materials, along with a tractor borrowed from Holy Cross, were used to construct a school. During the 1950s, a number of Yup'ik families moved into the Andreafsky area, only a short distance from the mission. Dormitories and a large house for the Jesuits were built during the 1960s. In 1967, the area adjacent to the mission incorporated as the City of St. Mary's, although Andreafsky chose to remain independent. In 1980, the residents of Andreafsky voted for annexation into the city. In 1987, the Catholic church closed the mission school.

Honestly, I'm too busy keeping my guys up to notice WTF the other healers are doing. Much less be all gossipy about them.
I also don't know much about the other healing classes - resto druids & shamans and holy paladins - I'm a holy/disc priest - to even really know what they might be doing wrong.
The only times I really notice other healers not pulling their weight is in 10-mans when the healing output seems low.
I do have more difficulty tank-healing than raid healing, but that's because I'm geared to be Holy more than Discipline. Some specs require different statistics to be higher than others.

As an addendum, I certainly can see what the tank and dps are all doing - kinda impossible not to. I feel like Big Brother sometimes.

Details for Cressi Ellipse Black Balanced NR - MC9 Yoke
Cressi Ellipse Black Balanced NR - MC9 Yoke:
Pairing of balanced and adjustable 2nd stage Ellipse Balanced with the hyper-balanced 1st stage MC9.
Thanks to the performance and the highly technological content of both stages this regulator is placed at the very top of the Cressi range.
The user can adjust the Venturi effect (dive / pre-dive) at any time during the dive.
Technical Features:
2nd stage Ellipse Balanced:
- Many of the exclusive technical characteristics of Ellipse, covered by 4 international patents, have been transferred to this new second stage.
- Ellipse Balanced has a slightly larger casing which is made from a sound absorbing material, and a new diaphragm that further improves the already very low inhalation effort of Ellipse.
- The weight is very low (the lightest in the category).
- The pneumatic balancing system of the piston allows for constant performance at any depth and with any air pressure in the tanks.
- A small lever, located in the upper part of the casing, acts as a flow deviator and allows the Venturi effect to be adjusted. When placed in position (-) it functions as pre-dive, for getting into the water and the first stages of the dive, whilst when moved to (+) it allows the regulator to develop its maximum performance.
- An internal heat exchanger optimises the performance of the regulator even in cold waters.
- The special study of air flows inside the casing has meant that absolutely natural, smooth and very silent breathing has been obtained.
- The standard release baffle can be directly replaced by the user for a larger model which pushes the bubbles further way from the diver's face.
- The possibility of quickly removing the entire mechanical part from the casing significantly aids maintenance operations.
Technical Characteristics of the 2nd stage Ellipse Balanced with 1st stage MC9:
- Average inhalation effort 3 mbar.
- Average exhalation effort 8 mbar.
- Average breathing labour 0.75 J/l.
- Quantity of air supplied 2500 l/m (*).
- Weight without hose 170 g.
(*) Values measured in compliance with standard UNI EN 250.
1st stage MC9:
- Hyper-balanced Diaphragm 1st stage with highly technological content that places it at the top of the Cressi range.
- Very light body covered by a protective elastomer shell.
- Cylinder sheathed in an antifriction and anticorrosion material that guarantees perfect sliding of the piston and long maintenance intervals.
- The nozzle, made from 316 stainless steel, can be easily replaced, thus ensuring perfect air-tightness, even after many years of use.
- Advanced research on the passage of internal air and a special assistance chamber have enabled the drop of pressure upon inhalation to be kept to a minimum, thus guaranteeing high performance in any situation.

PRESCOTT, Wis. (AP) - A third child has died from injuries suffered in a collision between a truck and an SUV near Prescott in western Wisconsin.
The Pierce County medical examiner says 5-year-old Laynie Jo Amos, of Amery, died around 1:30 p.m. Saturday.
Laynie's cousins, 11-year-old Lydia Milberg, of Centuria, and 5-year-old Clara Pavek, of Prescott, died Thursday.
Thirty-two-year-old Kari Milberg, who is Lydia's mother, was in critical condition at Regions Hospital in St. Paul, Minn. Her 3-year-old son suffered minor injuries.
The crash happened Thursday on Wisconsin Highway 35 near Prescott. Sheriff Nancy Hove said Friday that the SUV spun into the path of a truck, and investigators were trying to determine whether roadway conditions were a factor.
The truck driver and his two passengers were not hurt.
Pierce County (Press Release) - On Thursday, December 12, 2013, at 3:41 p.m., the Pierce County Sheriff's Office was notified of a two-vehicle crash on Highway 35 near 468th Avenue near Prescott, in Oak Grove Township.
After deputies arrived on scene, it was learned that a southbound vehicle (2005 Saturn Vue SUV) driven by Kari Milberg, 32, of Centuria, collided with a northbound straight truck driven by Jose Mendoza, 24, from Rockford, IL.
Initial investigation determined that Milberg's vehicle had rotated sideways across the roadway into the path of the straight truck. The northbound truck then collided with the rear of Milberg's vehicle in the northbound lane.
There were five occupants in the Saturn Vue. The driver, Kari Milberg was transported from the scene to Regions Hospital in St. Paul, MN, by North Memorial Air Care with undetermined injuries.
Milberg's 11-year-old daughter was pronounced dead at the scene. Milberg's three-year-old son was transported from the scene by ambulance to Regions Hospital with undetermined injuries.
Milberg's five-year-old niece, was transported from the scene by ambulance to River Falls Area Hospital where she was pronounced dead as a result of her injuries.
Milberg's other five-year-old niece was transported from the scene by North Memorial Air Care to Regions Hospital with undetermined injuries.
There were no injuries to the three occupants in the straight truck.
Although initially it appeared as though roadway conditions were not a contributing factor to the accident it is not fully determined or ruled out.
The Wisconsin State Patrol will be conducting an accident reconstruction of this crash that will assist Pierce County in determining a more definite cause and manner of the accident.
Pierce County (WQOW) - Two children are dead and three others hurt in a crash in Pierce County.
The sheriff's department says the crash happened Thursday around 3:40 p.m. on Highway 35 near 468th Avenue in Prescott. Deputies say a vehicle driven by 32-year-old Kari Milberg from Centuria collided with a northbound truck. Milberg was taken to Regions Hospital with undetermined injuries. A 5-year-old girl and 3-year-old boy in Milberg's vehicle were also taken to Regions Hospital with undetermined injuries. Another 5-year-old girl in the vehicle was taken to the hospital where she was pronounced dead. A 12-year-old girl in Milberg's vehicle was pronounced dead at the scene. Authorities say Milberg is the mother of the 12-year-old and 3-year-old. The other two children are relatives of the Milberg's.
There were no injuries to the three people in the truck.
Sheriff Nancy Hove told AP reporters that road conditions were not a factor in the crash.
Names of the children in the Milberg vehicle are not being released pending family notification.
The crash is still under investigation.

I was Alice,
falling down the rabbit hole.
Down, down, down I go,
Nowhere to be found.
My blackened lungs,
rotting inside spread bile and disease.
No one dare goes near me,
Locusts and black cats only venture the unknown.
The rabbit hole has swallowed me hole,
I'm not coming back.

Patients fall victim to 1.9 million drug errors every year, and over a fourth of those are likely preventable. That's according to the University of Massachusetts Medical School after studying the records on more than 30,000 people age 65 and over for a year. That research team documented about 1,500 drug errors in that senior age group.
"The adverse drug events that we observed in this study were associated with the most common medications that older people use, including heart medicine, diuretics, blood thinners and pain relievers," says Dr. Jerry Gurwitz, University of Massachusetts Medical School.
Dr. Gurwitz says almost 40% of those adverse drug events were serious, life-threatening or fatal. He says the best way to prevent drug errors is to make sure health care providers and patients have all the information they need about each medication at the time of prescription, including information about drug interactions with any other medication the patient is taking.

Hailee Steinfeld Has 'Fingers Crossed' For 'Hunger Games' Role
The role Katniss Everdeen in the upcoming big screen adaptation of "The Hunger Games" has been a source of great speculation since the Suzanne Collins' trilogy caught fire and "True Grit" star Hailee Steinfeld told Access Hollywood she's hoping to be considered for the part.
Access caught up with the 14-year-old actress at the InStyle and Warner Bros. Golden Globe awards party on Sunday, where she remained modest about her buzz for the role.
"That's… I mean… fingers are crossed," Hailee told Access. "Fingers crossed!"
When it came to whom Hailee was hoping to see at her first Golden Globes, the young actress was keeping an eye out for an actor that many are saying would be perfect for the role of Haymitch Abernathy in "The Hunger Games."
"There's so many people here… I'm in such great company," Hailee said. "I'd love to meet Johnny Depp, that would be amazing."
Despite the buzz for Hailee and Johnny, "Hunger Games" director Gary Ross recently told Entertainment Weekly that no casting decisions have been made.
"We'll cast the right person for the part. Lionsgate has been great in the respect that they don't feel that this needs a movie star in Katniss' role. The greatest thing about the franchise and the books being the star is that we can cast whoever we want. So we all feel like we're just going to cast the right person," he told the mag.

"Heavy, smooth paper, beautiful creamy, soft envelopes. We used a pic with lower resolution and the quality was still wonderful. Highly recommend."
"This card was perfect for me. Simple and elegant. Very casual but the card and print was very well made thick and colors were great. I would recommend tiny prints to anyone staff is friendly and helpful. This is now my go to place for all cards and invitations!"
"I love the size and quality of these thank you's. The cardstock is very thick, which adds to the impressive nature of the cards."
"We were married in Maui and ordered these cards as a way to personalize our thank you cards. We purchased the digital negative from our photographer and uploaded it to Tiny Prints. It was super easy and they were gorgeous. Our delivery arrived at Costco a day or two before it was expected. We ordered two sets of cards; same background but different picture since we wanted a group photo for those who attended the wedding. Our friends loved them. Some of the comments we received: "the best thank you card ever" "what a great idea" "how beautiful". I definitely recommend this website."
"I needed the color of the wording changed and they did this very quickly and still got the cards out to me within a week."

Everywhere around the Nassau Coliseum, there has been talk of the Islanders making some kind of a playoff run. After Saturday night's win over the Hurricanes, players and members of the media alike were quick to mention that the Isles were just six points behind the Maple Leafs for the eighth and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference and had a game in hand.
But Monday's embarrassing 6-0 loss to the Ottawa Senators at the Nassau Coliseum reminded Islanders fans and most observers that the biggest obstacle the Isles have standing in their way as we get closer to the trade deadline and the playoff stretch drive is this: the team just doesn't play consistently good hockey.
The past few weeks have seen the Islanders have plenty of opportunities to make up ground in the Eastern Conference playoff race. Yet each time the chance has presented itself, the Isles have lost critical games that they needed to win.
Just a few recent examples include a home and home match-up with the Maple Leafs January 23 and 24. The Isles were coming off a three-game winning streak that included a shutout road win against the potent Capitals offense and a rare win in Philadelphia. If ever there was momentum to build on, this was it. If the Isles could even get three out of four points in the two games with the Leafs, they could close the gap on eighth place and really get on a roll for the stretch drive. It didn't happen. Toronto shutout the Islanders at the Air Canada Center 3-0 on Monday night. The following evening at the Coliseum, the Islanders took a 2-0 lead into the final minutes of the second period but ended up losing the game 4-3 in overtime to the team they needed to catch to reach a playoff berth.
In early February, the Islanders had four-of-five games at home and they were again facing the teams that were in the hunt for the final playoff berth with them like the Sabres, Canadiens and Panthers. The results: 1-2-1 in the four home games with a 1-0 shootout win in Philadelphia thrown in between it. If the Isles are a legitimate playoff contender, they need to win home games against teams like Buffalo, Montreal and Florida and dispatch a struggling Kings team that is fighting for its playoff life in the Western Conference. To lose three of the four home games just killed any momentum the club had going for it entering this stretch.
The good news is that despite this maddening inconsistency, the Isles are not losing so many games in a row that they fall out of the playoff race. And while other teams have ebbed and flowed, no other team has stepped up and run away with the final spots in the Eastern Conference either.
Saturday's win over Carolina again provided a glimmer of hope that the Islanders were ready to make a run. But today's holiday matinee against Ottawa, another club fighting for one of the final playoff spots, dispelled the notion that the Isles are playoff ready. The game was over in the first 1:35 when the Senators scored two quick goals in the first five shots on net against Kevin Poulin. The slow start was bothersome, but even more disturbing was the lack of effort the Isles showed for the remaining 58:25 of the contest, never really offering any challenge to the visiting Sens who coasted to an easy victory.
"At this time of the year you need physicality," Coach Jack Capuano admitted. "You have to pay the price. I'll never ask anybody to fight but we weren't physical enough. We need an injection in our lineup, we need something to happen here. We can't have the emotion that we had on the bench here tonight."
Captain Mark Streit agreed with his coach. "There wasn't any intensity in our game," he said. "We can't start a game like that, down two goals right away. We didn't find a way to respond and get back in the game."
The Islanders remain only six points behind the Maple Leafs in the Eastern Conference, although they no longer have a game in hand. The problem is not just being three games behind Toronto with 23 games remaining on the schedule, but that there are three other teams the Isles must pass to reach the postseason [Winnipeg, Washington and Tampa Bay] and three other teams who are within three points of the Islanders in the standings [Montreal, Buffalo and Carolina] who they must also stay ahead of to qualify for the playoffs.
That is a tall order, especially for a young and inexperienced team like the Islanders who remain maddeningly inconsistent. Unless the Isles can put together a solid streak where they win seven or eight out of 10, they will have difficulty gaining ground in the standings. They have even less of a chance to pick up ground if they don't beat the teams they are fighting for the playoffs.
Tuesday, the Isles travel to Buffalo to take on the Sabres,another team they are battling for position with in the standings. Then they face the rival Rangers at the Coliseum Friday night and travel to Ottawa Sunday. Those are the final three games before the trading deadline. If GM Garth Snow is going to be a buyer at this late date, the Islanders need to pick up at least four-of-six points in these final three games to show Snow they have a chance to make a run this season.
Thus far, chance after chance has passed without the Islanders being able to convert them into a consistent winning streak. They simply cannot allow any more of these chances to slip away or they will quickly run out of chances.
