Can you hear me now?
This newly hired IT manager pilot fish solves problems for hundreds of users at locations spread across his state -- everything from "my mouse doesn't work" to e-mail and terminal-services administration -- with the help of a few key users at each location. So he's not surprised when one of those key users contacts him about an important Web application. "This application is used extensively to augment the training of our housekeeping and food services staff," fish says. "It has the ability to read aloud the information contained on the screen -- most convenient when trying to multitask or, in a few cases, trying to educate a few of our reading-challenged employees." The problem: This key user is having problems with the "read aloud" function. For half a month, the user has been trying every imaginable adjustment to get the sound working.
Blades trying to put regular season against Texas behind them
One lineup change, at least since the regular season, will continue to be having Ernie Hartlieb take some ice time as a defenseman. The right winger has spent some time on defense since the recall of defenseman Mike Card to the American Hockey League's Rochester Americans after the Blades' second playoff game on April 14. Fleming said there could be some potential roster moves before tonight's game, but he didn't want to disclose any details. Some possibilities could be activating forward Dan Baum, who has been on the injured list since April 1. He scored two goals and had four assists in just six games for the Everblades this season. Card could also return if the Americans lose tonight's game against the Hamilton Bulldogs. Rochester trails 2-1 in the North Division semifinals of the AHL playoffs, and Card has played in all three games thus far.
