	Wisconsin Assembly for Local Arts - growwisconsincreatively (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
		To meet the challenges facing the state, it is time for Wisconsin to move forward with a public and private action agenda that uses the arts, culture, creativity and innovation -- the "creative economy" -- as essential tools for the state’s economic, educational and civic success.
		It is. But the creativity and livability of these communities are a well-kept secret and must compete with the dominant image of Wisconsin – the Cheesehead (we all like to see an enthusiastic fan during a Packer broadcast, but that cannot be the only perception of Wisconsin globally).
		Wisconsin must intentionally, strategically and collaboratively act to attract creative people to innovate products, services, and even business practices, or its attempts to benefit from the creative economy resources will remain unconnected, unmined, unpromoted.

		To start, the Wisconsin team generated neural stem cells from the embryonic stem cells.

	The Cheese-O-Sphere » For first time in years, dairy cow numbers grow in Wisconsin (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
		Wisconsin has 1.243 million dairy cows, up about 8,000 from a year ago, not even a 1 percent increase but still significant, said University of Wisconsin dairy economist Robert Cropp.
		And right now, growth in demand for dairy products is due mostly to a growing population and not because of an increase in per capita consumption, he said.
		Milk production in Wisconsin grew more than 5 percent in the first quarter of the year but slowed to 2 percent in June, in part because of warmer weather, Cropp said.
