    <div class="html-content">On March 09, 2011, witha vote of 18-1 Republicans, Wisconsin senate approved a bill Gov. Scott Walker's proposed restrictions on collective bargaining for 
    public employees today, getting around a Democratic walkout by 
    stripping financial provisions from the bill.<br><br>On February 21, 2011, Gov. Scott Walker, was asked in an interview with Chris Wallace of Fox News, <br><br>"If it's a money issue and balancing the budget and they are willing to 
    concede on the money issues, why isn't that enough? Why do you also have
     to take back some of their collective bargaining rights?"<br><br>responded with "they" [Democratic State Senators ] are using the collective bargaining issue as a "red herring". He further stated,<br><br>"I want to give those local governments the tools they need to balance 
    the budget now and in the future. They can't do that with the current 
    collective bargaining laws in the state."<br><br>According to CNN, "His bill, which already had passed the state Assembly, would bar public 
    workers other than police and firefighters from bargaining for anything 
    other than wages." Also, raises would be capped to the rate of inflation, unless state voters 
    approve. The legislation also would require unions to hold a new 
    certification vote every year, and unions would no longer be allowed to 
    collect dues from workers' paychecks.</div>

    <div class="html-content">Full Title: Startup City to stimulate urban entrepreneurship in Baltimore<p><img alt="Baltimore's Startup City" height="316" src="http://www.cs.umbc.edu/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/startupcitylogo.png" width="700" style="max-width: 100%; height: auto;"></p>
    <p>Baltimore entrepreneur and computer programmer <a href="http://www.subelsky.com/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Mike Subelsky</a> wants to help strengthen the IT startup community in Baltimore and has created <a href="http://www.thestartupcity.com/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Startup City</a> to give it jolt. The effort will fund up to ten groups that will receive free space, seed money and mentoring to develop their ideas during the summer of 2011.</p>
    <p>The <a href="https://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0AdPdQktVsPezZGp0bW1jNF8xNGdxcHBqamRm&amp;hl=en&amp;authkey=CMCIsp8K&amp;pli=1" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">planning document</a> describes what the program will offer the ten groups:</p>
    <ul>
    <li>$15,000 in seed capital</li>
    <li>Weekly master classes with experienced entrepreneurs</li>
    <li>Regular access to mentors</li>
    <li>Introductions to potential customers and follow-on investors</li>
    <li>Free, beautiful office space collocated with the other participating companies</li>
    <li>Legal, accounting, marketing, and technical assistance from Baltimore’s Emerging Technology Center</li>
    <li>Vigorous coverage of their stories in our blog via video and written profiles</li>
    <li>Exposure to investors, journalists, and business leaders at a Demo Day occurring at the end of the 12 weeks</li>
    </ul>
    <p>See recent articles in in <a href="http://bmoremedia.com/features/startupcity030811.aspx" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">bmore</a> and the <a href="http://weblogs.baltimoresun.com/news/technology/2011/03/baltimore_becoming_a_startup_c.html" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Baltimore Sun</a>.</p>
    <blockquote><p>"Applicants to Startup City, who will be selected based on a YouTube video they submit to the program's website, can be from anywhere in the world — though Baltimoreans are equally encouraged to apply. The final ten, chosen by consensus of all the mentors and investors involved in the program (after Beeman and Subelsky narrow down the initial pool) can be anyone from a single person with an idea to a formed team or company. Startup City is looking mainly for those who will be able to execute a successful project in twelve short weeks."</p></blockquote>
