Who loves airshows? I DO! One of my favorite hobbies is frequenting the many areodynamic showcases that occur in the tri-state area. I am also an avid Blue Angels fan, so when I heard that the Angels were making an appearance at the Star-Spangled Sailabration, which takes place here in Baltimore from June 13th-19th, I was so happy I could do a barrell roll! If only I had a fighter jet…
The rumors are true! As part of Baltimore’s salute to the 200th anniversary of the War of 1812, otherwise known as Star-Spangled Sailabration, the Blue Angels flight demonstration team will be performing in Baltimore’s first ever airshow on Saturday, June 16th from 1-4pm and on Sunday, June 17th from 1-4pm. These awesome fighter jets will perform their routines over the Middle Branch River, just south of Fort McHenry. The actual start time can depend on the weather, so check the website the day of the performance for any updates.

Here at Teltek, we learn a lot from listening to our customers. Our IT division grew out of a request from many of our customers who wanted to have one company supporting all of their technology. We also learn a great deal from listening to our certified expert technicians. After all, they are in the telecom and technology trenches every day, so when they have something to say, we are all ears!

At Teltek, we like to work hard and play hard! Living and working in Baltimore City is a fantastic adventure and one of the aspects I love about Baltimore is the city’s appreciation of celebration in the form of festivals. The arrival of Spring kicks off a plethora of outside events that feature crafts, entertainment, food and fun for all ages and interests.
There are far too many to mention in one blog, so I’ll highlight some of the fetes I have been to personally so you get the Girl On Wire perspective. ALL of these are free to attend and I included the dates they occur in chronological order so you can mark your calendar now for the 2012 Baltimore festival season

Now is the time of year when you start thinking about warmer weather and sunnier days. I like to welcome the season by leaving the windows open, hanging out on the back patio with my dogs and shopping for new Spring clothes!
Spring is also a time of renewal and a great opportunity to clear out the junk and freshen things up. Many of us will commence Spring Cleaning of some kind; powerwashing the front of the house, dusting off the patio furniture, donating unwanted items or setting up the grill for barbecue season.

On April 12th, I attended a farewell party for Ann Lansinger, the former Executive Director of the Emerging Technology Center (ETC), which Teltek has called home for almost one year. It was a very special send-off for the ETC’s leader of 13 years. Several current ETC tenants were in attendance in addition to Ann’s co-workers, a few close friends and colleagues, her brother and even a few former tenants. The party was a celebration of her accomplishments and a way for all of us to wish her well as she closes a chapter and commences a new one.

Baltimore is full of unusual opportunities to get out and have a good time. A few weeks ago I joined a skeeball league organized by Baltimore Barskee and it’s been a blast!
For those of you not familiar with skeeball, it’s an arcade game invented in 1909 that’s similar to bowling. The player rolls a small, heavy ball up a short, inclined lane with the intention of getting the ball into one of the holes to score as many points as possible. The easier-reached holes have lower point values and the more difficult (higher) placed holes are worth more points.

Suite-Home is a three star hotel chain based in France. They have 6 hotels strategically placed in historic french cities and they have plans to expand to a total of 17 hotels in the near future. Suite-Home prides itself on providing their guests with a homey environment that includes spacious rooms with kitchens, a daily breakfast buffet and a reliable, user-friendly phone system; the Avaya IP Office!
The primary objective of the hotel chain is to ensure that their guests are comfortable and feel as if their personal and business needs are being met. The Avaya IP Office phone system was recommended to the hotel chain for its expandability, reliability and efficiency. A single server is able to support the phone systems at all six locations, which saves money and time. The server connects to the property management system designed to handle reservations and billing.

On Wednesday, February 8th, Teltek hosted a seminar with Avaya at its Baltimore, MD office in the Emerging Technology Center. The purpose of the seminar was to highlight the capabilities of the Avaya IP Office phone system and show current and future users how a phone system can transform the way their companies do business. There were 30 free tickets available and the event was sold out!
Teltek kicked off by welcoming the audience and introducing them to a few members of team Teltek and the Avaya and Xima representatives who were present.
