Nevadans Now Being Notified Of Reactivation Of Extended Federal Jobless Benefits

$
0
0

CARSON CITY – Nevadans who are eligible to have their jobless benefits reactivated can expect letters by next week with instructions, the Nevada Department of Employment, Training & Rehabilitation (DETR) said today.
The agency began mailing letters Thursday to individuals whose Emergency Unemployment Compensation (EUC) claims are being reinstated following action by Congress last week to extend federal unemployment benefits through November.
One unemployed Nevadan who was happy to hear the news is Carol Tidd of Las Vegas, who saw her unemployment benefits stop in early June. She expects to be eligible retroactively for the extended benefits.

“I’m glad they finally started moving on it,� she said. “It is very important. We’ve been able to keep a roof over our heads and the basics.�
Tidd said she has applied for over 100 jobs so far without success. She has been out of work since January. Her last job was with a gaming company.
The unemployment rate in Las Vegas was 14.5 percent in June.
“I have the education, I’ve got an MBA,� she said. “It is frustrating. I’d rather be employed than have unemployment.�
The agency’s unemployment telephone claim centers will also be open on Saturdays to assist with the anticipated overload of callers filing claims and requesting prior weeks of unemployment benefits, said Cindy Jones, DETR deputy director and Employment Security Division administrator.
“We continue to carefully stage our computer systems to ensure their ability to handle the accurate processing of claims,� she said. “It is important that claimants follow instructions mailed to them. With the cooperation of eligible benefit recipients, we can ensure their benefits are paid as quickly as possible.�
The call centers will be open on July 31, Aug. 7 and Aug. 14 from 8 a.m. until 2:30 p.m.
“With the unemployment rate soaring to 14.2 percent, the number of Nevadans seeking benefits continues to be high,� Jones said. “There are now over 88,000 people receiving regular unemployment benefits, and another 40,000 plus who may be eligible for the various types of federally paid extensions recently reactivated by approved legislation.�
Callers are urged to be prepared when making a request for the prior weekly claims to be filed. The following are some tips to remember:
- If you have worked since you stopped receiving your extended benefits, be sure to have all your employment information ready when calling. This includes your most recent two employers.
- You will be asked to certify that you have been seeking work and available to accept work for the weeks you are requesting payment.
- Once your past weekly claims have been processed, you will be able to file your next weekly claim by telephone or on-line at www.expressclaim.org.
- Nevada Unemployment Insurance Telephone Claim Center Telephone Numbers are: Northern Nevada – (775) 684-0350, Southern Nevada – (702) 486-0350, rural Nevada and out-of-state – (888) 890-8211.

We arranged all labor and transportation for the document move, and worked with Atlantis’ staff to ensure an accurate inventory.”Brian Olson, co-owner of Offsite, mentioned, “These days, every business is taking a harder look at their bottom line. Like the Atlantis, companies from many industries are starting to figure out that they can save a significant amount of money while actually improving their records management by outsourcing to a professional records center like Offsite.”About Atlantis Casino Resort SpaAtlantis Casino Resort Spa, a hotel casino in Reno, Nev., features 61,000 square feet of casino space, 1,000 guest rooms, eight food outlets, two espresso and pastry bars, a 30,000-square-foot health spa and salon with year-round pool, two retail outlets, an 8,000-square-foot family entertainment center, and over 5,000 square feet of banquet, convention and meeting space.In gaming, Atlantis features nearly 1,450 slot machines, 38 table games including blackjack, craps, roulette and more, race and sports booking, a 24-hour keno lounge, and a poker room.

Start Up: Catch the Automation Wave, or risk drowning

$

“I skate to where the puck is going to be, not where it has been.”
—Wayne Gretzky

I was talking with my 12-year-old daughter the other day about what she wants to do when she grows up. It’s the kind of conversation parents have been having with their children for many generations.

But in today’s world, this question has far deeper ramifications. That’s because a new technological wave is building on the horizon that will change the way we look at jobs, employment and the economy in general.

I told her she better plan on doing something in terms of computers and automation, or something truly creative. That’s because chances are over the next couple of decades, computers and robots will advance to the point that they will be able to take over a majority of the jobs humans do today. If you aren’t being creative, or if you aren’t involved in automation, you will likely be headed for an uncertain future.

Technology has affected labor markets for more than two hundred years. In the past, human workers displaced by machines have been able to find other jobs.

But that has changed.

We are entering the Age of Automation, where computers and robots are displacing human workers faster than we can create new jobs for people. The technology is growing at a exponential pace, with each new breakthrough giving birth to even more breakthroughs.

Think about it. Nevada became the first state to legalize on-road test of self-driving cars four years ago, and cars companies are poised to roll out this technology to the public in the next couple of years. Many people who perceive this phenomenon as a novelty fail to see the implications for the future.

Think Uber. This company has garnered a huge amount of attention for its ride-sharing service that is taking on the entrenched taxi industry.

But the real killer play here is that Uber is positioning itself for the day when it can field fleets of driverless cars. No drivers means more profits. Uber isn’t just aiming at the occasional taxi ride, but can conceivably offer a service that makes it less expensive and more convenient to hail an Uber than it is to own your own car, especially in large cities where traffic and parking are big problems.

Also think 3D printing. Back in the 1980s, the show “Star Trek, The Next Generation” introduced the Replicator, a computer that can basically make anything you ask of it, from a guitar to a perfectly cooked ribeye steak. Seemed far-fetched at the time, but now, 3D printing technology is closing in on this vision in a way that will totally change manufacturing as we know it.

The world is moving toward automation at a very fast pace. The financial crisis of 2008 forced many employers to lay off large numbers of their employees. But since then, many of these companies found ways to operate with fewer workers, through the use of improved information technology and automated systems. With corporate profits at record highs and low interest rates, these companies have huge incentives to invest heavily in automation.

It’s not just that the technology is getting better. It’s also getting much, much cheaper. Just as free, open-source software propelled the fast adoption of the Internet, there is now free, open-source software available for robots. The same technology that makes Microsoft Kinect gaming system work also makes it very easy and cheap to give robots the 3D vision they need to navigate the world like humans do.

With jobs under this kind of threat, it gives would-be entrepreneurs even more incentive to create their own futures instead of depending on someone else’s company for employment. If you are going to be the Wayne Gretzky of the business world, you will want to skate towards the robots, not away. You can either look for ways to catch a ride on this wave of automation, or risk drowning.

Democrats now have 461,461 active registered voters just about two months before the Nov. 2 general election compared to 402,960 for the GOP, a 58,501 edge for Democrats and a slight increase from July.

Nonpartisan voters added 2,249 new registrants in August, bringing the total to 167,802. Nonpartisan voters are expected to play a critical role in the outcome of a number of contests in Nevada, particularly the neck-and-neck race between U.S. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-NV., and his Republican challenger, Sharron Angle.
In total there are just under 1.1 million active registered voters in Nevada, a number that may grow at a faster rate now that Secretary of State Ross Miller has implemented an online registration program in Clark County.
Only eight other states have online voter registration systems, including Arizona, Utah and Colorado.
The new Online Voter Registration System launched last week gives Clark County residents who are currently unregistered another option for getting signed up as voters. Applicants must have a Nevada state-issued driver’s license or other state ID number. An online voter registration can be completed in just minutes from any computer with internet access. The system was developed in partnership with Clark County and the Department of Motor Vehicles.
From Sept. 1 through today at 10:37 a.m., 275 people took advantage of the new online voter registration system, with 62 registering as Democrats, and 89 each registering as Republican and nonpartisan. The rest were minor party registrants.
“I just don’t think there is an argument to be made that the online system favors a particular party,� Miller told Battle ’10 today. “Both parties are free to point people to the site.�
Miller said he is encouraged by the early use of the system, and noted it should become the dominant process for people to register to vote as has happened in other states with online registration. Miller said he will expand online registration to other counties, but that it won’t happen this election cycle.
Miller said Clark County was chosen first because 65 percent of the voters reside in the county, and it is where voter fraud problems have been reported in the past. The online system is more secure, he said.
ACORN, or the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, was involved in Nevada voter registration efforts for the 2008 presidential election. The group was investigated in Nevada and criminally charged for alleged fraudulent voter registration efforts.
“My goal as chief elections officer for the state is to make sure every Nevadan who is eligible can register to vote, cast their vote, and have it counted in an electoral process that is fair, safe, and secure,� Miller said in launching the online system. “The ID-required online system will help us do all of that. It streamlines the registration process by reducing the likelihood of errors inherent in a paper-based system. As a result, fewer voters will encounter questions and delays about their registration status when they show up to vote.�
Miller said surveys show that online voter registration systems are popular in Arizona and Washington, where a vast majority of users say they feel the systems are secure and easy to use. In addition, Arizona officials report a nearly 97 percent reduction in the cost of processing an online registration compared to processing a paper form.
The deadline to register to vote by mail for the November general election is Saturday, October 2. The deadline to register in person is Oct. 12.

USDA Rural Development supports Nevada in 2015 with $177 million in grants

More than $177 million has been invested through the USDA into rural Nevada communities in the past year, assisting more than 700 families in either helping them buy homes or to make improvements to their properties, and investing more than $28 million for community water and sewer system repairs, officials said Friday.

"These are projects that will stand the test of time," said Sarah Adler, state director for USDA Rural Development Nevada. "When we help a family buy a home of their own, or when these towns get new water and sewer infrastructure, it builds community. Families can thrive, and towns can attract and grow business."

USDA provided more than $135 million in rural housing assistance in 2015, with $126 million in Direct and Guaranteed Home Loans to help 673 families purchase homes of their own. The agency also provided over $9 million in rental assistance for 1,500 very low income residents, many of them seniors and disabled.

USDA’s Community Programs pumped $28 million worth of loan and grant dollars into clean water and wastewater projects. Communities like Topaz Ranch Estates near Topaz Lake, and Carlin, in northeastern Nevada, can now build efficient and cost-effective systems that will protect community health and the environment.

TRE will improve wells and replace water mains at its old and undersized system and Carlin will replace a 40-year-old wastewater pump station. Each project will generate substantial numbers of jobs through engineering and construction contracts.

In Virginia City, 13 miles of historic and dilapidated sewer lines will be replaced, financed through a combination loan and grant totaling $13 million from USDA. The adjacent community of Gold Hill will have its failing community septic system replaced and connected to Virginia City’s new wastewater treatment plant, also funded by Rural Development.

The Community Facility Program's direct loan and grant programs have assisted communities as well. The Pershing County Water Conservation District will use an $802,000 Direct Loan to repair the dam at Rye Patch Reservoir. Tonopah and the Fallon Tribe were able to purchase vans for their senior programs; other rural towns purchased security equipment, equipped commercial kitchens or furnished hospitals with handicapped accessible furniture.

Rural Development’s Business Program invested $13.7 million in rural communities, including a $10 million loan guarantee to Aqua Metals, a company that is building a large-scale lead battery recycling facility in McCarran, Nev. The company broke ground in August and expects to create 70 jobs.

USDA's Rural Energy for America Program (REAP) continues to grow, providing $741,504 to support renewable energy and energy efficiency improvement projects across the state. The Fortifiber Corporation in Fernley, which manufactures moisture barrier papers for the building industry, received the largest REAP grant to date.

The $373,429 grant paid for 25 percent of a new 499 kW roof mounted solar system which is expected to generate 886,681 kWh of renewable energy each year. The solar power will replace 39 percent of the plant's electricity needs and reduce Co2 emissions by more than a million pounds annually.

Rural Business Development Grants totaling $273,940 helped fund a number of small and emerging business enterprise projects in rural areas of the state. For instance, the Indian Dispute Resolution Service received $114,447 to continue and expand its "Indianpreneurship" workshops with Nevada tribes. The training includes business plan development, accounting and QuickBooks, financial planning, negotiation, and computer literacy.

Carson High School CTE students create cake to celebrate 75th anniversary of Nevada State Museum

Working from a photo of the Carson City Mint dated 1866, Carson High School CTE information and media technologies teacher, Sherri Kelley, and her students are designing a 3D replica of the Mint to crown the enormous cake CHS CTE culinary students are baking to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the Nevada State Museum, currently housed within the original Mint.

Built in 1863, the Mint produced gold and silver coins for a total of 19 years. In 1941, the building became the permanent home for the Nevada State Museum.

Kelley said the work to create the 3D model is painstaking, drawing the building from the photo on a computer using 3D software, then converting it to be viable on the printer software.

“Each printed section is 6-inches square,” she said. “The building is very ornate. There are 16 chimneys that each need to be printed individually, along with the windows, brick panels and cornices that must be glued together to create the structure.”

Makaela Bigley, a senior and fourth year CTE advanced architecture studies student, is helping Kelley to assemble the building.

“It’s really hard aesthetically to make it look right,” Bigley said. “Each piece has to be examined to make sure the ratios are correct.”

Bigley plans on going on to earn her architectural engineering degree, a hybrid between civil engineering and architecture. She hopes to attend either Penn State University or the University of Colorado, Boulder, two of the few universities offering the degree.

“This project has been both challenging and fun,” she said. “Seeing how it all comes together and creating a building piece by piece.”

The cake cutting ceremony begins at 11 a.m. Friday and is open to the public, with Mayor Bob Crowell officiating. McAvoy Layne as Mark Twain and members of the Guild Russell Calhoun family, relatives of Judge Clark Guild who spearheaded the efforts to open the museum in the Mint building, will also be in attendance.
