On AT&T unveils 3G network in Rock County
Posted on April 25 at 11:28 a.m. ( Suggest removal )
AT&T and T-Mobile use GSM while Sprint, Verizon, and smaller carriers such as such as MetroPCS and U.S. Cellular use CDMA. Nothing wrong with eiter frequency band however, CDMA is not common overseas. If you want to be able to use your cell phone overseas (either on AT&T/T-Mobile's network or with an unlocked phone and a SIM card), you have to have a GSM capable phone.

People complaining about a one-time charge of $30 to $40! It's about half a tank of gas. Perhaps they can offer financing for such a large purchase. Maybe the opposing homeowners in the story could get a HELOC to pay for it. Of course, anonomouse seems to have a business preposition.

As an alternative to cable, you could always go with satellite. AT&T is partnered with Dish Network as another method of providing a tv signal.

I can tell that you're not from a small school district.

I didn't say a pickup game. I said a team... just like what the ladies are trying to do.

You're right. I have no clue. I've never played on a football team with only 13 players (so you're on the field the entire game), a baseball team with only 9 players (where if two fall ill, you forfeit), or a basketball team with only 6 players (where you're up and down the court the entire game). It's ironman style play. You've got to be in shape. You also have to "think outside the box".
My entire point to begin with was that since the district is funding a female team, it should also be providing funding for a male team. ("costs will be shared among the four school districts")

whybesad, Saying you need more than six players for a hockey team is like saying you need more than 11 players for a football team. While it would be nice to not have to play both directions and have subs, it is not necessary. I also still find it interesting that even if you need 16 players, that those 16 players account for less than 1% (.9%) of the high school aged females. At what point do you say that there's not enough interest?

whybesad... The entire city of Janesville (population approx 60,000) can't field SIX girls for a high school aged hockey team? According to muninetguide.com, Parker has 1761 students and Craig has 1794 students. If I was to take gender percentages from city-data.com, 51% of the population is female. If you have 3555 high school students, and 51% are female, that would give you a pool of perspective female hockey players equal to approximately 1777. I find it hard to believe that there is not enough interest in 1777 females to field a six person hockey team.
As for Title IX, if the funding is going to come from players and their families and by the booster clubs, then that is a different question. Unfortunately, the article says that the four school districts are going to pay for them, so as far as I'm concerned, Title IX applies. I'd just like to see things remain equal. If the school districts sponsor female hockey, they should also sponsor male hockey.
Anyways, good luck to the ladies on the ice.
