Judge Besty Kolkoski is gearing up!
She honored Dr. and Mrs. Tony Lei with reunion dinner
By Valorie Vega, Cheryl Moss, and Tiffany Chang

Judge Betsy Kolkoski is gearing up to begin her quest for reelection to Las Vegas Municipal Court Department 2. Judge Betsy is putting on her running shoes and is ready to hit the campaign trail. The first stop will be a PARTY with dinner buffet in her honor. It will be held at the Italian American Club on Friday, January 28, 2005. Betsy looks forward to seeing you there!

In April of 2001, Judge Betsy Kolkoski was elected to a four-year term. She handled the court’s traffic cases until May of 2002, when she began overseeing Department 3, where she handles a criminal calendar. She earned a Juris Doctor degree in 1971 from the University of Cincinnati College of Law and a bachelor of arts in economics from Waterloo Lutheran University in Ontario, Canada in 1968.

On April 9, 2004, Judge Besty Kolkoski and her husband Dick honors Dr. and Mrs. Tony Lei with a nice reunion dinner. The location is at the Cheese Factory in Summerlin. The party is held by Judge Kolkoski in celebrating of Easter for the two famillies.

Congratulations!

On April 10, 2004, Judge of Las Vegas Municipal Court Honorable Betsy Kolkoski was the winner of visitor's number at #50,000th (now at #100,917th) on Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI) website at:
http://communitylink.reviewjournal.com/lvrj/wbti

The Summerlin of Las Vegas has been elected as the First Place in among 12 ranking communities nationally of United States the ideal and best selling homes for big builders in 2000 again. South Shores is one of the important district of Summerlin together with Desert Shores, Sun City, among others. The beautiful lakes centered in this area are one of the greatest attractive- ness of Las Vegas for millions of visitors all around the world. People would enjoy dreamly the sun rising and sun setting of the calm, clean, and nice scenes of these artificial and great work on the lilltle bridges. These bridges are built above the golden and beautiful waves of the lakes which are surounded by elegant residences. People love Summerlin. People love this Las Vegas' mighty fine! Dr. Tony Lei has been re-elected as a Director of South Shores Community Association with the highest poll by voters in December 2002.

Judge Betsy Kolkoski of Las Vegas Minicipal Court did also invite Dr. and Mrs. Tony Lei with a reunion dinner at Village Pub and Casino in Summerlin on February 28, 2001. Accompanied by her husband to the dinner, the Judge was bright and pleasent. In 1971, Judge Kolkoski graduated from the University of Cincinnati College of Law with Juris Doctorate degree. As Nevada's Elder Rights Atnorney, an Associate Fellow of the Culture Institution (CI) and Chairperson of the Aging Services Study Committee of Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI), she advocated statewide for the legal rights of senior and elder abuse prevention. Her research projects and papers presented together with former Attorney General Frankie Sue Del Papa to the national conferences were publicized by WBTI locally, nationally, and internationally. CI has been led by Dr. Sue Fawn Chung as its Director and Fellow. She is an Associate Professor and former Chairman of the History Department at UNLV. Dr. Chung was also named one of the two Nevada advisors to the National Trust for Historic Preservation in 2000.

"PAI is exploring such themes as computer and quantitative analysis for administration, seniors power by voting, economic renewal, educational technology, elder abuse, social security and Medicare, and the important relationship between faith and public policy," Dr. Lei noted. "We have worked to provide a setting of ideas in which the principles and perspective of the program come into contact with leading issues of the day in order to improve the quality of life of all our Nevadans."

The value of an academic institute should also put an eye on community service aside from its academic research. Take only one example, for the positive effort of the research and promotion of the seniors benefit, the Institute has done sizable works and received valuable results. At the end of 20th and in the very early of this 21st century, Associate Fellow of the Public Administration Institution (PAI) of WBTI, Elder Rights Attorney Besty Kolkoski of the Nevada Division for Aging Services (NDAS), with Juris Doctor degree of University of Cincinnati College of Law held the Forth Anniversary Meeting of the Nevada Elder Abuse Prevention Council (NEAPC) as Co-Chairpersons with Nevada Attorney General Frankie Sue Del Papa. Betsy did a research paper on elder abuse prevention through quantitative methodology. Both of them had received a fruitful consequence on the prevention of elder abuse with their cooperation of the NDAS and the Office of the Nevada Attorney General. Associate Fellow Sheri Vogel of PAI, a Juris Doctor degree holder of Detroit College of Law, Detroit, Michigan, has been the Project Administrator of the City of Las Vegas Senior Citizens Law Project since 1986. Sheri has obligatory assisted to and solved the concrete benefits and difficulties of seniors for many thousand cases. Her effort to help Las Vegas Seniors has won a lot of applauses. The President of Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI), Dr. Tony Lei, had been a member of the Las Vegas Senior Citizens' Advisory Board. He is now also a member of the Senior Advisory Committee of U. S. Congresswoman Shelley Berkley . Dr. Lei, elected as Executive Vice President of Seniors United in 2000, had been supported both by the educational and political sectors to get advance in leading the research and promotion of the seniors benefit, social security, and Medicare.

"WBTI is a very well respected and integral part of this community. To be an Associate Fellow of its Public Administration Institution (PAI) is a very prestigious honor for me. I am also grateful to be joining such a distinguished panel of professionals who are committed to improving the lives of our citizens in this community," said Judge Ann Zimmerman at the time when she was a Deputy Attorney General of Nevada.

In the first paragraph of the article entitled "Election Winner Judge Kolkoski Recognizes Dr. Tony Lei as a Great Leader,' It was wrote that, "During the congratulating conversation from Dr. Tony Lei to Judge Betsy Kolkoski for her re-elected as a Las Vegas Municipal Court Judge, she told him that Dr. Tony Lei is really a great leader.

U. S. Congresswoman Shelley Berkley wrote Dr. Tony Lei early April this year from her U.S. Congress Office in Washington, D. C. : "I can not thank you enough for all you do for me, my dear friend. I just read the 'Washington Business and Technology Institute' publication. It was wonderful!"

Seasons greetings are significant to famillies! With honor as the Assistant Democratic Leader of U. S. Senate, Senator Harry Reid wrote Dr. and Mrs. Tony Lei on January 11, 2001 from his office in Washington, D. C. : "The holiday season is a time for remembering the good things that have happened during the year, for reflecting on the many blessings of our lives, and for renewing the bonds of love and friendship that make our lives special."

The famous political leader from Nevada continued his literary and intimate writing that, "This year has been eventful for the Reid family. Our first child, Lana, and our three grandchildren live in the Washington area. Roary and three more of our grandchildren live in Las Vegas. Leif is in Reno with two more grandchildren and have just told us another is on the way.

Josh just passed the bar, is living in Reno and also has announced our new daughter-in-law is expecting. Finally, our youngest, Key, lives in the Washington DC area with our newest grandchild. So, as you can see, we have the pleasure of grandchildren in each of our frequent stops, Las Vegas, Reno and Washington."

The Bible says: "Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns, yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?" (Matthew 6:26) Take what the Senator says to Dr. Lei in his letter that, "On behalf of Landra and our family, I want to thank you thinking of us during this holiday season. Each holiday greeting reminds us that we are truly fortunate to have so many friends and loved ones with whom to share this special time." And if a humble individual like Dr. Lei may be treated so friendly by our Senator Reid, obviously everyone of us in Nevada would be taken care by his extended kindness. And this be our mode: "In God is our trust!"

His love to his family and his friends revealled his dignified and humane spirit through his words in the letter. For a great and powerful person like him to have such a beautiful and kind heart is really the glory of God. "Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil, cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves," says the Bible. (Romans 12:9-10) At the end of the letter, the famous U.S. Senator says that, "The Reid family has been richly blessed and we look forward to the years ahead. I hope that the season brings happiness and good fortune to you and your loved ones. With warmest regards."

Let me express my deeply felt sorrow for the people in affected countries in Southeast Asia
By Valerie Weber and PAI of WBTI

Originally from California, Nevada Assemblywoman Valerie Weber moved to Nevada in 1990. Her undergraduate degree in biological science and specialty in the field of transfusion medicine earned her several medical journal authorships. She is a 1998 graduate of the Chamber of Commerce's Leadership Las Vegas program. She just completed a four-year term as a member of the Board of Displaced Homemakers, appointed by Governor Guinn in 2000. Valerie is the owner of Collaborating Solutions. She is accredited in Dr Goleman’s 360-competency assessment instrument in Emotional Intelligence (ECI).

As a famous Assemblywoman and the Minority Whip of Nevada Assembly, Valerie Weber has been also a professional member of Public Administration Institution (PAI) of Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI) for three years.

To Whom It May Concern:
I watched in horror these past several days like so many other Nevadans, Americans and friends in the international community the results of great devastation from the earthquake and tsunami in the Indian Ocean countries. My heartfelt concern goes out to those families experiencing loss during this recent disaster in Southeast Asia including Thailand amongst others.

I called Dr. Tony Lei this morning and was inspired that through Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI) our concern for the Thai people could be shared through the local Chinese newspaper.

I understand that "Next Weekly" is a Chinese newspaper that emphasizes the importance of literature and education to its enthusiastic readers and has the largest circulation amongst six Chinese newspapers in the southwest United States.

Again, let me express my deeply felt sorrow for the people in affected countries in Southeast Asia; you are in our prayers and relief efforts.

Most Sincerely,

Valerie E Weber
Nevada Assemblywoman/Minority Whip

S. A.*1

"I'm inspired by the many years of U. S. Secretary of Labor Elaine Chao's endeavor and contribution to social and benevolent works. I'd quite understand that working with these professionals and intellectuals in Public Administration Institution will bring me growth with my development in business. Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI) has been directed to good work performance in community service and humane spirit under the spiritual leadership of its Chairperson Elaine Chao," said Miss Linda Shyr at the dinner party held by WBTI at the Lillie Langtry's Restaurant in Golden Nugget Casino and Hotel , Las Vegas on January 11, 2005.

Nevadans,
Americans and friends in the international community the results of
great
devastation from the earthquake and tsunami in the Indian Ocean
countries. My
heartfelt concern goes out to those families experiencing loss during

I called Dr. Tony Lei on January 4, 2005, and was inspired that through Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI)
our concern for the Thai people could be shared through the local
Chinese
newspaper.

That paper is the "Las Vegas Chinese Daily News." It publishes on
Monday,
Wednesday, and Friday every week in Las Vegas, Nevada. It is the only
Chinese
newspaper that publishes three times a week here in Las Vegas at the
present
time. Helen Hsueh is the President and publisher of this paper. She is
also
my friend.

Again, let me express my deeply felt sorrow for the people in affected
countries in Southeast Asia; you are in our prayers and relief efforts.

Meet WBTI Fellow Dina Titus

"Our greastest asset at Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI) is our people -- not facades or fountains, not landscapes or lakescapes, but people -- faculty, advisory board members, administration, and a host of friends," said President Dr. Tony Lei of Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI). "On the publications of WBTI through multimedia locally, nationally, and internationally, we have featured many of our own: U. S. Secretary of Labor Elaine Chao, U. S. Senators Harry Reid and John Ensign, U. S. Representatives James Gibbons and Shelley Berkley, Governor of Nevada Kenny Guinn, Pepperdine University President Dr. Andrew Benton, Chief Federal Judge Lloyed Geroge, Pepperdine University Chancellor Dr. Charles Runnels, Former Chief Justice and now Justice of the Nevada Supreme Court William Maupin, Dr. William Thompson, Dr. Lee Bernick, Dr. Keong Leong, Las Vegas Mayor Oscar Goodman, among others."

"Enriching our research and community service process were made possible by these friends who joined and supported this academic institute. WBTI is really a chain of dedicated individuals, intellectuals, and professionals who join to research, serve, support and to give. We take great pride of our people, including our outstanding faculty members. They are some of the best in the world. We are sincere servers to help improve the quality of life of all the residents and visitors of Nevada."

Nevada State Senator Dina Titus was appointed by Washington Business and Technology Institute as a Fellow of its Public Administration Institution (PAI) on August 15, 2001. She was very pleased to receive the congratulations call from Dr. Tony Lei early that morning. Having out of town for a couple of days, the call reminded her that at the suggestion of U. S. Senator Harry Reid, former Las Vegas Mayor Jan Jones had offered to step down as Nevada's Democatic National Committeewoman, and Dina Titus would seek that job. This would give her some Washington, D. C., connections and enhance her political profile. With four trips a year to Washington, D. C., the committeewoman and committeeman from each state are expected to speak on party issues, raise money, and help recruit candidates.

"It's really my honor to be a Fellow of the Public Administration Institution of Washington Business and Technology Institute," said Senator Dina Titus to the readers of "Nevada Examiner" and Las Vegas Review-Journal.com. "I'm also honor to be invited by Dr. Tony Lei as a Special Guest to the Event and Dinner Party for a Special Tribute to U. S. Senator Harry Reid on August 24, 2001," she continued.*2 Dina Titus brought her husband Dr. Wright to attend the Party at the Asia Palace Chinese Restaurant on the Friday evening. Dr. Wright is a Senior Professor in the Department of History at UNLV. The Event and Dinner Party was initiated by Dr. Tony Lei and Ms. Nancy Diaz. It was chaired by Dr. Tony Lei, Dr. R. D. Prabhu, Dr. Ram Singh, Mr. Tonie Sison, and Ms. Rita Vaswani. Joined with more than 36 hosts of the Dinner Party by community and organizational leaders, business exevutives and owners, and government officials, we had guests and participants more than 384 people.*3

As a Professor of Political Science of UNLV , Dina Titus is now a famous Senator of the State Nevada. She is also a State Senator Democratic Leader. On August 14, 2001, she said that she would run for Lieutenant Govenor if Las Vegas Mayor Oscar Goodman ran for Nevada Governor. "She's brilliant, and she would be a great governor," Mayor Goodman siad of Senator Titus.

To her new honor and appointment as a Fellow of Public Administration Institution (PAI) of WBTI on August 15, 2001, Senator Titus agreed with District Judge Valorie Vega on "This position will undoubtedly provide me with avenues for exploring improvements in public services to which I'm most dedicated." It is really a valuable advancement that we may have such an appropriate and achieved individual like Dina as a colleague to our Institution. Senator Titus' expertise and good reputation in political science has been known locally and nationally. With her outstanding professional expertise and practical public administration experience, Senator Titus' acceptance as a fellow of PAI evidenced that in supporting Director Dr. William Thompason with Fellows Former Attorney General Frankie Sue Del Papa, Justices of the Supreme Court William Maupin and Nancy Becker, District Judges Mark Denton, Valorie Vega, Nancy Saitta, Jackie Glass, Michelle Leavitt, Jennifer Togliatti, Jessie Walsh, among others, they would form an excellent leadership team launching PAI into the next milleunnium for academic excellence and administrative practicality.

Dina Titus is now a famous Adjunct Professor of Administrative Strategies in the Graduate School of Business and Public Administration (GSBPA) of Washington Business and Technology Institute.

Professor Dina Titus, a native of Georgia, was educated at William and Mary, University of Georgia and received her Ph. D. from Florida State University. She currently teaches Political Science at the University of Nevada at Las Vegas, and, in addition to these responsibilities, she is also a Nevada State Senator from District 7 in Clark County. She is on the Board of Directors of the Nevada Test Site Foundation and is a member of the Nevada-California Super Speed Ground Transportation Commission, Clark country Women’s Democratic Club, Education Commission of the States and the Nevada Commission on Participatory Democracy. Se was named the Spanos Outstanding Teacher at UNLV in 1985, was the Chairman of the Nevada Humanities Committee from 1984-19865 and in 1999 was the Nevada Arts Advocate of the Year.*3

Her most recent publication is Bombs in the Backyard: Atomic Testing and American Politics. The title of Dr. Titus’ Convocation lecture, “The Mushroom Cloud as an American Symbol,” attests to the extensive knowledge she has concerning America’s nuclear testing at the Nevada Test Site and the impact it has had on that region.*4

"The maturity of citizens society is the fundamental guarantee for the normal processing of democratic politics. In a citizens society, it depends highly on the team of public intellectuals. A good public intellectual interates peoples' opinion, analyze rationally, and points out wise perspectives and notice. Dina plays an important and significant responsibility of mission as an achieved intellectual at the same time as an important statewoman. Our Nevada is critically in need of these intellectuals and professionals in every kind of fields," said Dr. Tony Lei, President of WBTI.*5

Just like some good personal traits are important to the success of an individual, some of them are also critical to the implementation of a project for an organization. To be successful in business, we need to have positive thinking traits. There are 12 personal traits that characterize a positive thinker: Optimism, Enthusiam, Belief, Intelligence, Courage, Integrity, confidence, Judgement, Persistence, Liveliness, Vision, and Desire to excel.

With the above characteristics, Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI) had a very successful experience to initial, plan, and implement a project for our U. S. Senator Harry Reid. It was the Event and Dinner Party for A Special Tribute to U. S. Senator Honorable Harry Reid on Friday, the Twentifourth of August, 2001 at Asia Palace Chinese Restaurant in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The recent interest in having a project initialted through WBTI has been concerned by several community leaders: (1) Mr. William Yuen and Ms. Teresa Woo invited Dr. and Mrs. Tony Lei to a lunch to discuss their participation in Intercity Business Council of Nevada. The party was held at the Chinese Cuisine Cathy House on December 30, 2004 in Las Vegas. (2) Mr. Raymond Lam invited Dr. and Mrs. Tony Lei to dinner at BBQ King Restaurant in Las Vegas. Mr. Roget Y. Rong and Mr. Mike Lei were accompany guests. The party was held on December 28, 2004 to discuss a world intercity convention on May 2005.
