				<link>http://www.whby.com/index.php/News/WHBY_News/105502</link>
				<description><![CDATA[A health care organization with three hospitals in the Fox Valley is cutting up to 250 jobs. 



Ministry Health Care officials say they&#39;re necessary because high-deductible health insurance plans are leading to lower demand, and they lost $10 million in Medicare payments, through the sequestration cuts.



The job reductions will be spread across Ministry&#39;s 15 hospitals and 47 clinics. They include Saint Elizabeth Hospital in Appleton, Calumet Medical Center in Chilton, Mercy Medical Center in Oshkosh, and the Affinity Health System&#39;s 30 clinics.



Ministry officials say they&#39;ll eliminate the positions by not filling open positions, and through layoffs and retirements.]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[While the search for survivors continues in Moore, Oklahoma, the regional director for the American Red Cross in northeast Wisconsin says he knows first hand the horror a tornado leaves behind.



Steve Hansen says he went to Greensburg, Kansas in 2007, after an EF-5 tornado devastated that community. He says it takes your breath away.



Hansen says the images people are seeing are almost identical to what he saw.



Red Cross chapters in the region are awaiting word on whether local volunteers will be heading to Oklahoma.



People can donate $10 to the Red Cross by texting REDCROSS to 90999.]]></description>

				<link>http://www.whby.com/index.php/News/WHBY_News/105499</link>
				<description><![CDATA[The National Weather Service issued a &quot;Tornado Emergency&quot; yesterday, when the EF-5 tornado tore through Moore, Oklahoma.



That&#39;s a relatively new kind of warning, reserved for only the most severe storms. Meteorologist Jeff Last is with the National Weather Service&#39;s Green Bay office. He says it&#39;s only used when a particularly powerful tornado is approaching a heavily populated area.



The warning talks about the likelihood of catastrophic damage and loss of life. The National Weather Service brought the enhanced warnings to Wisconsin this year, but Last says he doesn&#39;t expect to use the tornado emergency very often.&nbsp; He says we only see that kind of tornado every 10 to 20 years.



&nbsp; Last says the last tornado that would qualify was an EF-5 that hit Oakfield in 1996.]]></description>

				<link>http://www.whby.com/index.php/News/WHBY_News/105501</link>
				<description><![CDATA[A name change is on the way for the Thilmany paper mills in De Pere and Kaukauna.



Once the sale to KPS Capital Partners becomes final this summer, the Thilmany mills will be known as Expera Specialty Solutions. KPS is also giving the Expera name to its recently acquired mills from Wausau Paper, in Rhinelander and Mosinee.



The new company will have about 1,800 employees between the four mills, and it will be the largest producer of specialty paper in the U.S.



Thilmany vice president Russ Wanke will become Expera&#39;s CEO. He says they have a stable platform, that positions them for future growth.



Outagamie County Executive Tom Nelson says he hopes KPS will consider creating a headquarters for Expera in Outagamie County.]]></description>

				<link>http://www.whby.com/index.php/News/WHBY_News/105498</link>
				<description><![CDATA[A trucking company is consolidating three service centers into a larger facility in Fond du Lac.



One of the smaller Con-way Freight centers is in Neenah. Company officials announced their plans today for the $8 million project in a business park on Fond du Lac&#39;s south side.



Steve Jenkins is the president of that county&#39;s economic development corporation. He says it will be more cost-effective to have a single facility.



Jenkins says the move will bring about 100 jobs to the community.



Construction will start next month, and the project should be finished by March of next year.



Right now, Con-way has smaller service centers in Neenah, Fond du Lac, and Sheboygan. A company spokeswoman says all of the current employees will be able to transfer to the new facility.]]></description>

				<link>http://www.whby.com/index.php/News/WHBY_News/105190</link>
				<description><![CDATA[Governor Walker wants people in the state&#39;s food stamps program to spend at least 20 hours a week searching for work or taking part in job training.



A report from the non-partisan Legislative Fiscal Bureau found more than 31,000 FoodShare recipients don&#39;t meet that requirement right now, and they would lose their benefits. That&#39;s about half of the people in the program.



Under proposed changes in unemployment, the governor also wants to increase the number of job applications recipients file each week from two to four.



Representative Dean Kaufert supports the governor&#39;s overall goal of bettering people&#39;s chances of getting a job. The Neenah Republican says lawmakers should include some flexibility with the time requirement for people who have multiple low-wage jobs, or deal with day care commitments.



The Joint Finance Committee will talk about the idea today.]]></description>

				<link>http://www.whby.com/index.php/News/WHBY_News/105193</link>
				<description><![CDATA[An Oshkosh man will spend six years behind bars for killing an elderly Omro man, while driving drunk.



33-year-old Jeremy Derks was convicted in March of homicide by driving drunk, after he entered a no contest plea and he&#39;ll spend an additional seven years on extended supervision.



Today is the one-year anniversary of the crash that left Richard Bielinski dead.



Winnebago County Judge Daniel Bissett handed down the prison term yesterday afternoon.



Court records say Derks ran a stop sign and hit an SUV, at Highway 21 and Reighmoor Road in Omro, in May of last year. Bielinski was a passenger in the SUV. The driver had non life-threatening injuries.]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[In the wake of the tornado that hit the Oklahoma City area yesterday, the American Red Cross is hoping people here will take advantage of technology so they&#39;ll know if a storm is coming.



The non-profit developed a free Tornado app for smartphones, that alerts people if the National Weather Service issues a tornado warning.



Spokeswoman Barbara Behling says an alarm can go off, based on a user&#39;s location. She says the app also notifies users, once a warning expires.]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[The Memorial Day weekend is right around the corner, and it&#39;s going to cost more to fill your gas tank if you&#39;re planning a holiday trip.



A gallon of regular unleaded is selling for $3.85 in Appleton, and Roy Hinz of AAA Wisconsin says that&#39;s up 35 cents from a month ago. He blames maintenance-related shut downs at refineries in Kansas and Illinois.



Hinz says they should be running again by the end of the month, and then prices should go down.



The statewide average for gas is $3.92 a gallon, and the national average is $3.65.]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[A Democratic lawmaker wants all government workers in the state to fall under the same collective bargaining rules.



Sen. Tim Carpenter of Milwaukee says he&#39;s putting together a bill that would eliminate an exemption for police and firefighters. He says he decided to go that route, after introducing a proposal to repeal the controversial law, and Republicans wouldn&#39;t schedule a hearing.



Carpenter says all employees should be treated equally, and the state needs to have a conversation about the issue.]]></description>

Investigators are seeking charges of armed robbery, and reckless endangerment, against a 24-year-old town of Menasha man.



Police say he was arrested, after he held up the PDQ station in the 1000 block of Racine Road yesterday afternoon. They say he ran off, and he pointed a gun at officers when they saw him about a block away, near a Citgo station. They say an officer fired two shots at the man, and he wasn&#39;t hit.

				<description><![CDATA[The quality director for a local health care provider doesn&#39;t anticipate a very big impact from a bill that would ban state companies from requiring employees to get a flu shot.



Dan Collins of ThedaCare says the vast majority of their workers get the vaccination, even though it&#39;s not required.&nbsp; He says those who don&#39;t get the shot have to wear a mask when the flu season peaks.



Republican Rep. Jeremy Thiesfeldt of Fond du Lac introduced the bill after some hospital workers complained that they were fired because they refused to get a flu shot.]]></description>

				<link>http://www.whby.com/index.php/News/WHBY_News/105041</link>
				<description><![CDATA[It&#39;s going to be a busy week on the road for Governor Walker.



He&#39;ll be on the campaign trail giving speeches in Connecticut, New York City, and Iowa. The stops come as the governor is being mentioned as a potential candidate for president in 2016, and Iowa would be an important state.



Walker says he visits other states that don&#39;t play a role in presidential politics, and he can still work a full day and make it over to the appearance in Iowa.



Walker will be in Iowa on Thursday.



The governor says he&#39;s still focused on leading Wisconsin. He says any event that helps raise his national profile could benefit the state by attracting new businesses.



The governor is speaking at a Republican Party event in Connecticut later today, and at a fundraiser in New York tomorrow.]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[Homes sales were up again in Wisconsin last month.



President Mike Theo of the Wisconsin Realtors Association says they climbed nine percent from April of last year, and it marked the 22nd straight month of gains. He says median prices rose by almost eight percent, to nearly $138,000.



The northeast region didn&#39;t fare as well as the statewide average. Sales were up by about 8-1/2 percent, and the median price climbed by more than three percent, to $120,000.



For the year, statewide sales are up 11 percent, compared to nearly six percent in the northeast region.]]></description>

The breed has a reputation for being aggressive, but Liz Pirner of the Fox Valley Humane Association says that&#39;s only because some have manipulated their naturally protective personalities.



Pirner says they have two long-standing, in-house training programs that help educate families. She says they specifically designed the Under Dog program for dogs with an aggressive reputation. They also have the Rover Done Over program to train dogs some valuable commands that families can use.]]></description>

It&#39;s a popular crop for cattle, and Dan Undersander of the UW-Extension says the damage isn&#39;t confined to Wisconsin. He says it extends from eastern Ontario into Minnesota and the Dakotas.



Undersander says last year&#39;s drought, and a winter that lasted into spring, caused some of the problems. He says it&#39;s the worst year for alfalfa winterkill in Wisconsin, in over 20 years.]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[The early success of the state girls basketball tournament at the Resch Center could help draw more sporting events to the Green Bay area.



That&#39;s the feeling of Brad Toll, the executive director of the Greater Green Bay convention and visitors bureau.



The WIAA moved the tournament to the Resch this year, and the organization&#39;s board wants to extend the contract through 2020.



Toll says that might make a difference, when they recruit events like USA Hockey or speedskating. He says they&#39;ve always had one big argument in their corner -- the Green Bay Packers. Toll says some event organizers initially question whether the area can handle large sporting events, until they&#39;re reminded of the frequent home games.



Toll says sporting events can provide a nice boost to the local economy. He says the girls basketball tournament generates about $3 million in visitor spending.]]></description>

Kevin Kennedy is the executive director of the Government Accountability Board. He says they sent out nearly 300,000 postcards last month to people who haven&#39;t voted in four years. He says about 16,000 returned them, asking to stay on the list.



Kennedy says people who were removed from the rolls can easily re-register.



Kennedy says they didn&#39;t hear back from more than 175,000 people, and over 100,000 of the postcards were returned, as undeliverable. He says some of them may have moved, or passed away in another state.]]></description>

A group of lawmakers want to let all hunters use the weapon, during the deer bow hunting season. Right now, only people 65 and older, or those with disabilities, can have them.



DNR assistant big-game ecologist Scott Roepke says the bill also lets hunters buy two tags -- the regular archery permit, and a special one for crossbows. He says they would still only be allowed to shoot one buck.



Roepke says he thinks more women and young hunters would take up bow hunting, if they could use a crossbow.]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[It&#39;s a big weekend at UW-Madison for a family from Freedom.



Triplets Stephanie, Kyle, and Ashley Verhasselt are all graduating with different degrees.



Kyle says they all liked the school, when they first went to the campus. He says it&#39;s a pretty unique thing, but they really didn&#39;t realize it in the moment.



Kyle and Ashley went to Madison as freshmen, and Stephanie joined them after deciding on a major, while she was at UW-Fox Valley.



Kyle says they all had different groups of friends, but they met at least once a week for dinner or to hang out. Their brother, Adam, is a junior there.



Now they&#39;ll go their separate ways. Kyle took at job at a financial firm in the Greater New York City area, Ashley starts medical school in the state, and Stephanie will go into the social work field.
