| A Veteran Arts Leader Returns to the Nashville Ballet
When Andrea Dillenburg, marketing director at the Nashville Ballet, followed her husband to his new job and moved to Atlanta in 1999, she figured she'd see Music City again only as a visitor. In the years that followed, Ms. Dillenburg, now 44, worked as a fund raiser at the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra and the Alliance Theatre, but she kept in touch with the ballet by donating money and occasionally driving four hours each way to watch performances. Ms. Dillenburg's continued interest in the now 21-year-old company partly stemmed from her relationship with several of the ballet's founders, whose dedication she admired. "It wasn't just a place to work; it was their place to work," she says. "That kind of heart you almost cannot define in terms of caring." In July, Ms.

10 DNS Errors That Will Kill Your Network
Well over 70 percent of all support calls that come to Microsoft support services that start out as Active Directory or Exchange calls end up being DNS calls. Yet, as youll see in this article, most of these issues dont require extensive diagnostic work or sophisticated tools to isolate and resolve. I liken it to the days when automobiles had carburetors; a mechanic could fix most engine performance problems by fiddling with the chokespritz a little WD-40 into the throttle body, charge $50 and retire in the suburbs after a few years. Nowadays, the same is true for DNS. Check the TCP/IP settings, run a few utilities to verify the zone records, charge $350 (correcting for inflation) and retire to Arizona. Youll learn to identify the most common domain name system issues that cause problems for AD and Exchange and how to avoid them in the first place or isolate and resolve them if they occur in production.

Senator Akaka: Veterans Day 2007 Floor Statement
This bill also contains a significant increase in the travel reimbursement benefit paid to certain veterans who are forced to commute long distances to access care at VA facilities. The current mileage reimbursement rate is only 11 cents per mile, and this rate has not been increased since 1978. The Committee bill would increase the rate to 28 cents per mile - a substantial increase and one that will hopefully help ease the financial burden for those who have to travel sometimes hundreds of miles to get to a VA hospital or clinic. Two other health care bills that I introduced this year are currently moving through the Committee process -- S. 2160, the proposed "Veterans Pain Care Act of 2007," and S. 2162, the proposed "Mental Health Improvements Act of 2007." The Committee is scheduled to mark up both of these bills, along with two others, tomorrow.
