Craig Alan Gentry (born November 29, 1983) is an American professional baseball outfielder for the Oakland Athletics of Major League Baseball. He played for the Texas Rangers from 2009 through 2013.
Baseball career
Gentry attended the University of Arkansas – Fort Smith during his freshman and sophomore year. [1] He then attended the University of Arkansas, where he played college baseball for the Arkansas Razorbacks baseball team. The Texas Rangers selected him in the 10th round (298th overall) of the 2006 MLB Draft.[2]
The Rangers promoted Gentry to the majors on September 1, 2009,[3] but did not see significant playing time. He began the 2010 season with the AAA Oklahoma City RedHawks, but was called up to the majors on April 27 due to Nelson Cruz being placed on the 15-day disabled list. On May 15, he was optioned to Oklahoma.
2011 season
In 2011, he batted .271 in 133 at-bats, with 18 steals in 18 attempts.[4]
Gentry hit his first MLB triple on September 11 against the Oakland Athletics.[5] A few days later, on September 23 he hit his first Major League home run, an inside-the-park home run against the Seattle Mariners.[6] At the end of the season, he was named the Rangers' Rookie of the Year.[7]
2012 season
In 2012, Gentry batted .304, a career high.[8] He also hit his first outside-the-park home run, a two-run homer in left in Toronto on April 30.[9] Gentry pitched the final inning of a 12–1 loss at the hands of the Oakland Athletics on June 4.[10] He allowed two runs on three hits and a walk.
2013 season
In 2013, Gentry hit two home runs, stole 24 bases and had an on-base percentage of .373 all career highs.[11] He broke his left hand in June against the Oakland Athletics on a bunt attempt.[12] Gentry was named Rangers' player of the month in September batting .354 with 10 stolen bases, 10 runs, 2 doubles, a triple and four RBI.[13] He also won the Rangers' Wilson Defensive Player of the Year Award. In 102 games, he committed only two errors, had seven outfield assists, he saved 12 runs and had the best UZR of the team.[14]
On December 3, 2013, Gentry, along with pitcher Josh Lindblom, was traded to the Oakland Athletics for outfielder Michael Choice and infielder Chris Bostick.[15]
2014 season
Gentry missed much of spring training in 2014, due to a lower back strain he suffered on the first day of workouts.[16][17] Gentry played most of the season with a sore knee.[18] On July 27, he suffered a broken right hand when hit by a pitch during a bunt attempt against the Texas Rangers. Although the injury occurred during the second inning, he played the entire game including four more plate appearances.[19] On September 9, Gentry suffered a season-ending concussion after a collision at first base with Carlos Sanchez of the Chicago White Sox. [20] Due to his injuries Gentry played in only 94 games.[21] He still managed to finish the season with 20 stolen bases which made him Oakland's leader in that category.[22]

Vastavam web: Prime Minister Narendra Modi was today accorded a warm welcome as he arrived here on a three-day visit to attend the BRICS Summit hosted by South Africa. Modi arrived here from Uganda's capital Kampala, the first bilateral tour by an Indian prime minister since 1997. He will participate in the BRICS Summit, whose theme this year is 'BRICS in Africa'. "Good evening South Africa! PM Narendra Modi arrives at the Waterkloof air base to a warm welcome. PM will attend the 10th BRICS Summit and related meetings in Johannesburg and several bilateral meetings on the sidelines," External Affairs Ministry Spokesperson Raveesh Kumar said in a tweet.
Modi will attend the 10th edition of the BRICS Summit in Johannesburg, during which the grouping's leaders are expected to deliberate on global hot-spot issues, international peace and security, global governance and trade issues among others. He is also expected to meet several leaders including Chinese President Xi Jinping. BRICS is a grouping of five major emerging economies: Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa. Originally the first four were grouped as "BRIC", before the induction of South Africa in 2010.
India's relations with South Africa date back several centuries. India was at the forefront of the international community in its support to the anti-apartheid movement. This year marks 25 years since the resumption of India's diplomatic relations with South Africa in 1993. This year also marks the 125th year of the Pietermaritzburg railway station 'incident' involving Mahatma Gandhi.

Offshore staff
ADELAIDE, Australia – Cooper Energy is progressing plans to complete its withdrawal from various exploration licenses offshore Tunisia.
At the Bargou permit (Cooper 30%): the only remaining work obligation for the current permit term is the abandonment of the Hammamet West-3 well.
Work on the program should get under way next month. Cooper has advised the joint venture of its intention to withdraw following completion of this task.
Cooper has also withdrawn from the offshore Hammamet permit but has been subsequently served with a request for arbitration by the remaining joint venture partners Medco Ventures International (Barbados) and DNO Tunisia.
Both companies are seeking security from Cooper for its 35% share of a well which is yet to be drilled, and for unspecified damages for a claimed breach of the operating agreement.
Cooper says the claim is without basis and denies any liability for activities undertaken during an extension period of the permit, since it elected not to participate.

July 22, 2010 – D3 Radiation Services recently announced that the American Board of Radiology (ABR) has qualified eDataAudit—a new service designed to reduce errors in the delivery of radiation therapy—as a Practice Quality Improvement (PQI) for the purpose of Maintenance of Certification (MOC).
With eDataAudit, participating clinics and radiation oncology physicists can order a comprehensive audit of their beam data through the use of a web portal.
"This is a unique service that addresses a major recommendation of the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) TG-106 report requiring beam data to be audited prior to going clinical," said Nabil Adnani, Ph.D., DABR, chief products development officer at D3 Radiation Services.
According to reports by international organizations such as the International Atomic Energy Authority and the World Health Organization, the majority of reported adverse events in radiation oncology can be traced back to errors committed during linear accelerator commissioning. More recently, the Radiological Physics Center (RPC) at the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center published a report about the problems of credentialing radiation oncology clinics to participate in National Cancer Institute sponsored clinical trials. According to the center, approximately three out of 10 participating clinics failed their credentialing efforts, with the majority of the failures traceable to commissioning errors.
"With ABR's approval, eDataAudit will not only help minimize these errors but also provide reports that participating physicists can use to fulfill the fourth component of the ABR's Maintenance of Certification requirements," Adnani said.

Today's advice is aimed at transitioning your 10 – 13 year olds from whatever allowance they currently receive for chores, to earning their own money. Unfortunately, gone are the days of the local paper route, this was the way my father (at around 13!) earned a trip to New York City! Our kids need to be a little more creative. At this age, more mature kids can shovel, weed or help plant flowers for a neighbor. You can help your child be creative and make cards to hand out.
Another way to earn money is to hold a garage sale. In my house, there was always a bit of a surplus of toys and books. If you (or maybe your entire neighborhood) has a garage sale have your child participate. They should collect and price, with your help of course, items to sell. It is my suggestion that you have them keep their items separate. It is important that you hold onto the cash but help them make change and keep a tally of 'profit'. Don't forget to Share | Save | Spend that I blogged about yesterday.

How Can You Help?
The most important help that you, as a parent, can give your boy is to work with him on his Cub Scouting activities. His handbook is full of age-appropriate activities that you will enjoy doing together at home. When he completes an activity or project, it is your responsibility to sign his book to verify that he has done his best. And then it is all-important for you to attend the monthly pack meeting with him, so that you can celebrate his achievement. Your role as a parent is the secret to a successful Cub Scouting program!
The den and the pack also rely on parent participation to run a successful program. Cub Scouting operates through volunteer leadership. Consider volunteering as a member of the pack leadership team. Volunteer leaders are an example of Scouting's principle of service to others. By volunteering in Scouting, you are also giving your son the gift of your time. What could be more valuable? You will have an opportunity to be a positive influence in the lives of him and his friends. Here are some of the ways you could volunteer:

Identify to committee all adults that need training. Attends the monthly pack meeting and pack team meeting.
Approximate Time Commitment: a few hours a month during August through December, and very little time throughout the remainder of the year.

The fight over flights from a Dallas airport waged by Southwest and American airlines could be won by the best communicator to media and residents.
American Airlines and rival Southwest Airlines compete for travelers' dollars every day. But in their shared hometown of Dallas, the two are currently competing for much more.
Southwest is trying to change a federal law that limits flights it can offer from Dallas' Love Field Airport. American, which flies from the larger Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW), is fighting the move, arguing that a change would hurt DFW and consumers.
The law is known as the Wright Amendment, passed in 1979 after a heavy lobbying effort by American. The airline at the time was making a major investment in the just-opened DFW and didn't want to staff two airports, so the law allows flights from Love Field to serve only a handful of US states. At the time, it was justified as a way to build traffic at DFW.
Southwest soars ahead
The wrangle to change that law has become a battle for public opinion in Dallas, a battle Southwest is winning - so far.
Those following the tussle say Southwest's advantage comes from carefully crafted, easily understood messages that stress clear consumer benefits. But perhaps more important is a reservoir of goodwill in the market, thanks to 30-plus years of active outreach.
At American, "people have to overcome years of being fairly arrogant" toward the local media, says David Margulies, now president of Margulies Communications Group, a Dallas PR agency.
In the 1970s, Margulies was a TV reporter in Dallas who covered both airlines. "It was very difficult to get an interview with the CEO of American Airlines. I never got one" while working for the local ABC affiliate, he recalls. "We were just the local media. American's attitude was, 'What do we care about Channel 8? We're an international airline.'" In contrast, the CEO of Southwest was easily accessible and even invited him to dinner.
That perception has changed in the past few years, as the company has reached out to local media. It began stepping up efforts in the Wright Amendment battle last month.
"A large part of what we'll do is education," says Roger Frizzell, American's VP of corporate communications and advertising. "We believe that there is a cost of repealing the Wright Amendment that hasn't been conveyed. ... We have a general belief that it's good for airlines to compete, but it's bad for airports to compete."
American says it would have to move flights to Love Field so it could compete with Southwest if Southwest wins the right to expand there. That would hurt DFW and hurt passengers there by giving them fewer flights and fewer possible connections, the airline believes.
Southwest's position is that more flights from Love Field will mean lower fares for Texas passengers, says Ginger Hardage, Southwest's SVP of corporate communications.
"We're taking our argument from the halls of Congress to anywhere our customers are," Hardage says. "We believe Dallas can thrive with a two-airport situation."
Hardage is hesitant to say her airline's outreach has been more effective than American's. "We believe that we have a persuasive argument, and we believe that our argument is winning, not our PR tactics," she says.
She also wouldn't comment on whether Southwest got a jump on talking to the public early in the debate while American concentrated on outreach to Congress and Texas representatives.
Southwest decided to shift from neutral to opposing the Wright Amendment late last year. The drop-off in short-haul flying that followed 9/11 has hurt its limited business at Love Field as more people opted to drive to neighboring states rather than fly, Hardage explains.
"We wanted to grow in our hometown," she says of the airline's decision to seek the repeal. PR efforts began in January; Southwest is not working with an agency on the issue.
By May, it had created setlovefree.com and launched an employee petition drive that has gathered more than 100,000 signatures.
Southwest executives also have been visiting editorial boards in cities served by the airline. It even conducted a study on the impact repealing the amendment might have on airfares and the Dallas economy.
American and DFW's response
Frizzell says American is preparing to mobilize its employees for a grassroots campaign that will address the costs of having two fully competing airports in the region. It's working with AOR Weber Shandwick.
Frizzell declined comment on why American didn't do broader outreach at the start of this year, when Southwest began talking about repeal. Observers, however, say American held back because it knew its past inattention to local media would put the airline at a disadvantage. Instead of countering Southwest's claims initially, American relied on DFW to carry the anti-repeal message.
Ken Capps, DFW's VP of public affairs, says: "From a PR perspective, DFW is indeed an underdog." Fighting Southwest is "like taking on motherhood and apple pie," he adds.
He did not directly comment on whether American initially left DFW on its own in the fight, saying only via e-mail: "It's important to get the straight facts out there, and that's what DFW has done from the beginning, on our own, as well in conjunction with American."
DFW has tried a variety of tactics. It offered Southwest free rent for a year if it would launch new flights there, for example. It's also been talking about the 268,000 jobs tied to DFW and its $14 billion annual economic impact on the region.
In July, roughly 100 DFW employees went to Love Field to urge Southwest to schedule flights at DFW. Southwest contends its flights would be insignificant and hard to find at DFW. "It's like asking the frisky boutique operator to go into the mega mall," says Hardage.
The airport also polled travelers at DFW and found 85% want Southwest flights there.
"Once we have a chance to talk to reporters or Congress, they get it," says Capps.
Others aren't so sure. Alan Bender, associate professor of aeronautics and an airline economist at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Daytona Beach, FL, says of DFW and American: "I think it would be almost a miracle if they were to successfully mount a campaign" to keep the amendment.
The lesson from the Dallas fight, he says, is that old-line airlines like American have to talk more about the benefits they offer that low-cost carriers don't, such as international service and flights to smaller cities.
Stan Levenson, CEO of Levenson & Brinker Public Relations in Dallas, agrees that "today's marketing has to be benefits-driven. Southwest has done a good job through its grassroots marketing."
American and DFW "need to put a stronger focus on consumers. What they're doing is good but just incomplete," he explains. Rather than saying simply that consumers might be hurt by having two airports, they need to personalize it, talking about people who might find it more difficult to visit their grandchildren in distant cities, for example.
American is not conceding. "We've got a big job to do. It's like starting a race, and the other competitor is halfway to the goal line," says Frizzell. "But we are going to be definitely engaged in the battle, and we believe it's long term. For us, it's time to get into the game."
Capps says the lesson is that air travel issues don't easily lend themselves to simple PR messages. "Almost any aspect of aviation is a very emotional issue. Everybody flies. Everybody has a story. It's important to stick to the facts, not play to emotions. And sometimes that makes the message a lot harder to deliver and be considered," he says.
Southwest's Hardage says the lesson is that airlines need to customize their messaging for each city they serve. "Everything we do is market-specific," she says.
Margulies sees the lesson as one of relationship building.
"You are always building goodwill," he says. "It's a long-term investment."

text: I am a person who reads multiple books at a time, so not only am I reading The Dead Zone I am also reading Winter. Winter is the fourth book in the Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer. This series is very interesting because each book is about a different fairytale, but with a twist. Winter is the final book in the series and I am excited to see how it ends. I am half way through the book and it just gets better and better. This is by far one of my favorite series and I think everyone should read it.

I just want to give people an update on the progress of Wandering Heroes of Ogre Gate and the Bedrock Blog.
I've been a bit silent here for a while, except for the regular postings of Wandering Heroes campaign logs. This is because I am working on a number of support products for Wandering Heroes of Ogre Gate. I've also been volunteering at Viki.com to edit the English subs of Dramas like Journey of Flower and Legend of Zu. Hopefully I will be back to posting more regularly once all this quiets down.
Speaking of Ogre Gate, presently it looks like we will be ready for layout at the end of this month. This is tentative but I am optimistic. I do realize this is taking longer than we initially anticipated but I'd much rather we take the time to get this right than release it in a rush. We made a conscious choice a couple of years back to put more of a premium on quality than on pipeline (and those two things are often in conflict in publishing). Our editor is doing an outstanding job, and I want to make sure he has the time necessary to go over the material. I apologize for those who have been waiting for this release. I promise you that I have been eating, sleeping and thinking about this game non-stop. The manuscript is complete, we are just making sure it is perfect as it can be before publication.

With the warming temperatures, the trails at Washburn will be closing. Please stay off of the trails. They need to dry out completely before they will open again for running, biking, and hiking.
Nose Lake 4/5
The east loop was tracked this morning. Both loops set up very nice. Good skis can still be used. Again to extend the tracks, try to ski early or late. Avoid the mid-day due to the warm sun conditions.
Nose Lake 4/4
Well, after two significant snowfalls within 4 days we now have something to work with, at least in the short term. Nose Lake was compacted and groomed this morning. However, only the west loop has a track. The east loop needed a lot of prepping before putting down the track, and the conditions got to warm for tracking. So the plan is to track the east loop early tomorrow. Currently it is skiable, but not tracked. It looks like there will be some nice late season conditions at Nose Lake. To maximize the conditions, try skiing early, or real late, and avoid the afternoon.
Washburn and Cassian are not getting groomed. With the deteriorating conditions of 10 days ago, the decision was to take the snowmobiles in for their annual maintenance work. So they are in the shop, and won't be pulled out again till next ski season.

Join our mailing list for the latest behind-the-scenes news, updates on RAD and special discounts!
Tatyana Kasperovich, The Scrap Exchange's new Volunteer Coordinator, was born in Moscow, Russia. At the age of four, her family relocated to Omaha, Nebraska, where she grew up with mid-western qualities that are evident in her accent. She has lived in North Carolina for 4 years and absolutely loves the people and activities available here.
Every year, The Scrap Exchange hosts hundreds of volunteers. Last year, volunteers contributed over 13,000 hours and played a huge role in the success of the organization. Tatyana Kasperovich's first experience of The Scrap Exchange was as a volunteer enrolled in the UNC Apples Program. In the class titled Urban Political Geography, her coursework included a critical look at gentrification and how it is changing Durham. "What I learned in that class is always on my mind when I think about the Reuse Arts District (RAD). There are a lot of cool things going on but we need to make sure that everyone in the neighborhood will benefit from the project and not get priced out of the homes they have lived in for 30 years," says Tatyana.
Her volunteer stint with UNC Apples lasted 6 months and she was so inspired by the experience that she continued to volunteer when it ended. A few months later when she graduated, store manager Jeff Zern offered her a job, which she happily accepted. She joined the staff in processing and quickly progressed to cashier and hosting the greeter's desk. Once comfortable with each area of the store, she began assisting with volunteers where her own experience greatly informed how she related to their individual needs, concerns and ideas. Tatyana continued in her role for 2 years before taking a travel break in early 2018 to explore England, Ireland, Norway and the Czech Republic.
This fall Tatyana rejoined the staff as the Volunteer Coordinator, an administrative position that utilizes her background in both aspects of the volunteer experience. And she has really hit the ground running! Her immediate goals are to increase new volunteer outreach; revise scheduling and documentation procedures; and develop projects that benefit both the organization and the needs of the volunteers. "My major focus is to really open up communication at both stores so they will know when volunteers are scheduled, especially the large groups. I will also work with the staff to provide projects that utilize that time wisely," she says. Tatyana's duties also include workforce development programs like NCBA and ReEmployability that help people re-enter the workforce. "One thing I am super excited about is our intern program. I want to completely revamp that and make it more hands-on by checking in with the interns every week, seeing where they are on projects and relating that work back to real life skills to make it more meaningful for them," she explains. The expanded focus on the intern program will launch this Spring.
The evolution of Tatyana's career at The Scrap Exchange is a direct result of her eagerness to learn, her commitment to her work and her positive relationships with customers and co-workers. She is a cheerful, outgoing person that lights up a room with her presence and infectious laugh. "The Scrap Exchange has taught me so much. I love how you can learn about hardware one day, what companies in RTP manufacture another day, and the importance of people skills and life in general the next day. It has made me a well-rounded person, increased my life skills and even taught me the difference between Gorilla Glue and regular glue," she says laughing. "We have a lot of very environmentally conscious people working and shopping here so I learn new things every day." But Tatyana also wants people to know that despite her outward ease with people, she still gets socially nervous and works very hard to overcome that obstacle. "I want people to know that I am very open to talking to people about anything! Whether they just need to vent, solve a problem, or even discuss a movie that no one else cares about! My door is open and I would love to talk with them," she explains.
In her off hours, Tatyana operates a dog sitting/dog walking business called Kasper and Friends Pet Sitting Service. She truly loves spending time with animals and I highly recommend her service. I am pretty sure that my own dogs would pick her over me any day!
Kindred reuse/recycling spirits are drawn together. The Scrap Exchange and our electronics recycling partner, Triangle Ecycling (TE) have been together for more than 6 years collecting, sharing and supporting each other and our customers. They recycle electronics we collect and we take everything non-electronic they collect. They also have donated computers for Scrap Exchange staff through their TEKI Program which supports nonprofits that work with children in education. And TEKI is just one way they give back to the community.
TE founder/CEO Larry Herst likes to say, "Doing good in Durham is our marketing plan. We provide a convenient, free computer and e-waste recycling service, we donate computers and sell them locally at below market prices to help bridge the digital divide and we provide computer tech internships and digital literacy ed through schools and nonprofits. We also give 10% of profits to the Durham Public Schools Foundation."
TE's operation, in Durham's old Pepsi Plant, employees 10 computer techs. Their E-Scholar Program will be admitting its 100th Durham Public Schools intern this fall. These interns spend an entire semester learning computer refurbishing, recycling and the soft skills so necessary for finding a good job upon graduation. They also learn the importance of a small business giving back to its community.
The Scrap Exchange accepts computers, cell phones and small computer peripherals for recycling on behalf of TE or you can drop off with them at 2717 Western Bypass, Durham 9:30-5 on weekdays. And while you're there, check out their great offering of low price laptops and desktops – PC and Apple.
The Scrap Exchange is thrilled to announce the newest addition to the Reuse Arts District, the Rhythm's Live Music Hall! Now in the final phases of construction, the 14,000 square foot space next to Scrap Thrift will soon become a premium destination for music lovers in the Triangle. Owned and operated by Victor and Jerre Graham, the new facility features an incredible sound system designed by Rick Camp, a studio engineer with credits that range from mixing and touring with artists such as Earth, Wind & Fire, Destiny's Child and Beyoncé, Natalie Cole, Burt Bacharach, Kelly Clarkson, Fantasia, Jennifer Lopez, Mary J. Blige, Chris Brown, Kenny "Babyface" Edmonds, Brandy, and New Edition, to name a few.
Gracing the entire front wall of the venue is a mural of Durham by artist Baede Minasse, (shown below). Victor has already lined up several incredible acts and plans to be fully operational by December. Stop by our SmashFest event on November 23rd and take a tour of the new venue. AND, if you are looking for a new place to ring in the New Year, look no further than the Lakewood Shopping Center! Victor and Jerre are gonna ROCK your socks off!

You can log in to your driving Dashboard by clicking the Existing Customers tab at the top of the Admiral Website. Log in to your Documents portal and you'll find your link to the LittleBox Dashboard.
Why is my driver score showing as 'null' on my Driving Dashboard?
When your car's not being used a score of 'null' will show.
When will my driving statistics appear on my Driving Dashboard?
Your statistics will show up after 1-2 months. This is so we can collect enough information to build your driving score.
When I try to log into the Driving Dashboard, it's advising me to check back next week. What's happening?
We're currently collecting and processing the information - the system needs to compile driving information before it can calculate your score so check back in a few days.
Who do I contact to re-arrange my installation date?
No problem! We'll give you the installation team's number when you take out your cover and you can call them to re-arrange.
Why is my score from last week showing as this week's score on my Driving Dashboard?
The trip information from this week hasn't updated yet so check back in a few days.
What happens if I forget my password to my personal dashboard?
Just click on the 'reset password' link and follow the instructions.
Are there any curfews?
You can drive anytime you like with LittleBox, but regular night time driving (after 10pm) will decrease your driving score, meaning you may not get as big a discount at renewal. So, if you have a night job that requires driving, this may not be the best option for you.
Will I have to pay anything if I don't renew my policy at the end of the first year?
No. If you don't renew your policy there will be no extra charges. You'll only have to pay the cancellation fee if the policy is cancelled before renewal.
Where is the box fitted and will it damage my car?
LittleBox hard install device is fitted at no extra cost to you, out of sight behind your dashboard. It's fitted by a trained technician and won't affect the vehicle's warranty.
You'll be contacted by our installation team to book an appointment with the engineer. They come out to you and the fitting only takes around 40 minutes.
If you have a LittleBox plug and drive device, this just needs to be plugged into the 12V power supply or cigarette lighter – this is something you can do at home.

Dear Mr. Bilello:
I write in response to malicious statements made and continue to be made against me by your assistant and request a written and public apology by President Lebo.
I have been informed that Mr. Lebo in response to a question at a Local 45 union meeting on January 31, acknowledged responsibility for a "procedural error" on the "motion"to bar members from attending delegate body meetings" and then suggested a rational to bar members.
Citing Amalgamated and the contract negotiations, Lebo singled me out by name as a security risk, alleged I was responsible for the January 10, Crain's article, "In blow to contractors, gaffe stalls union vote," he implied I was responsible for the threats of legal action against the District Council by contractor associations and stated he had "written up charges against me" and threatened me in his office. He then said he didn't file the charges because of "free speech" issues but indicated he may file charges at a later date, saying, "The charges are still in my desk."
According to one Local 45 member present: "Lebo imputed Musumeci as being detrimental to the health of the union and members."
What kind of game is this, do you intend to run your administration by taking credit when things go right, avoid responsibility, retaliate and find someone else to blame when things go wrong?
Character assassination, threats, intimidation, secrecy, censorship and concealment, contempt for member's free speech rights are repugnant in an open and democratic union and antithetical to your platform of member's rights, transparency and democracy which you were elected on.
In response to Lebo's statements the following FACTS are presented to set the record straight:
1. Using Amalgamated and contract negotiations, as pretext for no gallery was opportunism on the part of your administration and not a "procedural error." You could have argued for a gallery, and suggested if secrecy is really necessary, a motion for "executive session" can be made within a meeting, requiring rank-and-file to leave the room. Instead on January 25, President Lebo brought to the floor a question of a "members gallery," which immediately was seized upon by pro-censorship delegates (with your approval). Neither you nor Lebo, argued for or defended the right of rank-and-file to attend delegate meetings, nor did you act in any to defend "members rights, transparency and democracy."
2. If you're looking to blame someone for the flak and threats of legal action from contractor associations demanding explanation why they were not informed and had to read about the tabling of contracts in Crain's, you need to only look in the mirror. The events of January 10th were completely under your control. Prior to the announcement to the delegate body, you and Lebo had a meeting with John Ballentyne, where he informed you about the "missing page" from the contracts and the intent to table the contract vote. It was negligence and incompetence on the part of your administration to not inform the contractors prior to or directly after Ballentyne announced the information to the delegates at 1:57 pm that caused the blowback, flak and embarrassment your administration experienced. Furthermore I immediately informed you and Lebo by email at 4:17 pm, giving you a heads up and a link to the Crain's articled thus providing you another opportunity (which you neglected to take) to properly and officially inform the contractors on the status of the contracts before they hear about it (news travels fast) or read about it in Crain's.
3. On January 9th, Crain's published an article "Carpenters sue to block contract vote." Crain's has written twenty-two articles regarding collective bargaining agreements since June 2011. It should come as no surprise to anyone that Crain's would write a follow-up article. The District Council was aware of the Crain's January 9th article, the lawsuit filed by carpenters and the two days of rank and file rallies beginning Monday afternoon to voice displeasure with the effort to fast track a Tuesday ratification vote. Prudence would dictate your administration would anticipate the need for a statement ready to be posted on the Council's website after the vote informing the membership and the contractor associations of the outcome.
4. To date your administration has not officially informed the membership and has kept the membership in the dark about tabling the contracts and the status of the contracts. Your administration has used resources of the District Council to deflect from your negligence and made me a target for retaliation, to be made an example of. Lebo filed charges with the IG's office and then withdrew them because he was advised of the likelihood of a counter-suit, and loss in court based on free speech rights.
5. I have done absolutely noting that is "detrimental to the health of the union and its members," on the contrary this membership is better informed on local157blogspot then on the District Council's website which continues to be silent under your administration.
I would suggest and recommend you take immediate steps to mitigate the anti-democratic consequences of your administration, which is "detrimental to the health of the union and its members," and focus on the more important issues and business of the Union and members.
Sequel to the above, I am respectfully requesting you instruct President Bill Lebo, to write a letter of a clear and unqualified apology and retraction, to be posted on the District Councils website and further request that at the next scheduled meeting of Local 45, President Lebo publicly retract and apologize for the malicious statements he has made against me.
TAKE NOTICE that in the event of failure/refusal to comply with the above-mentioned request, pursuant to Section 5 (F) of the District Council Bylaws, I will institute a complaint with the Chief Compliance Officer and Inspector General for investigation.
John Musumeci
Delegate to the District Council

At the January 25th meeting Bilello stated he had, after the January 10th "tabling" of the CBA's, spoken with John DeLollis, representing the Wall Ceiling Association; DeLollis said he didn't know anything about the 20% market recovery rate discount (which the UBC had reported as missing in contracts on the NYCDCC website,) that they had "never asked for it."ReplyDelete
The Plot Thickens
- Today in Labor HistoryFebruary 7, 2012 at 6:44 PM
Events: February 7th, 2012 -- On this day, the new administration of the NYC Carpenters District Council, (EST) Mike Bilello, and (President) Bill Lebo, had for over two months been elected into office, over three weeks installed into power at 395 Hudson, and still not addressed the membership-at-large, after a slew of indictments, convictions, imprisonments, an International trusteeship, dissolution and restructuring of Locals.ReplyDelete
The sole testament to dishonoring their campaign platform, and an overall indifference and inaction for the very members who elected them, was a Review Officer veto, posted on the NYCDCC website, citing a motion, which Bilello and Lebo facilitated, barring the rank-and-file from attending delegate meetings, as a violation of the Consent Decree Stipulation and Order of the and District Council Bylaws.
After the Forde Administration scandal, irrational expectations by rank-and-filers that conditions could only get better were laid to rest: Don't Mourn Organize!

I met my love by the gas works wall
Dreamed a dream by the old canal

Clouds a drifting across the moon
Cats a prowling on their beat
Spring's a girl in the street at night

Heard a siren from the docks
Saw a train set the night on fire
Smelled the spring on the smoky wind

I'm going to make me a good sharp axe
Shining steel tempered in the fire
Will chop you down like an old dead tree

I would ask that if you would like to leave a comment that you think of Local 157 Blogspot as your online meeting hall and that you wouldn't say anything on this site that you wouldn't, say at a union meeting. Constructive criticism is welcome, as we all benefit from such advice. Obnoxious comments are not welcome.

How do you respond to many biological evolutionist who claim that humans are just masses of chemical reactions. here is a great little quote I found answering this:
"if you encounter a "nothing but" argument: replace nothing but with the words not only. For example, "Yes, human bodies are made of chemicals, but human beings are not only chemical machines. They are also complex biological systems, relating to one another in social groups, forming culture and artwork, and relating to their Creator God.""

Alex James: why I would recommend a cruise holiday
Classic FM presenter Alex James discovered a wonderful world of entertainment on board P&O Cruises ship Ventura
Through tears of laughter I blurted: "Why isn't this guy on the telly?" "Oh, he will be!" smirked the man sitting next to me. A comedy magic act by Manuel Martinez at The Tamarind Club was bringing the house down.
"So, I'm not on TV," quipped Manuel, presciently. "But I am on Twitter. In fact I'm bigger than Jesus. He only had 12 followers..."
And on it went.
Actually, it was through television that I came to be here, laughing my head off at a comedian in The Tamarind Club on board the good ship Ventura.
I first set foot on a P&O Cruises ship for the series Battlechefs, currently on UKTV's Watch. I joined nine other celebrity contestants challenged to create dishes for the captain and VIP guests on Britannia, another P&O Cruises ship.
I spent most of my time filming in various destinations, running in and out of Michelin-starred kitchens. But what surprised me was how much my wife Claire enjoyed it. So at the very first opportunity, I was back on board to enjoy a cruise at my leisure.
P&O Cruises food hero Marco Pierre White designs the menus for gala evenings. And the range of casual and fine dining on ship is simply staggering.
Whether it's the jamón that accompanies the flatbreads at The Epicurean restaurant, or the "wine flight" at Olly Smith's The Glass House, there is something for everybody; so many options, in fact, that I found myself making lists so as not to miss out.
The afternoon tea, created by master pâtissier Eric Lanlard, was a standout (cheese éclairs and beef brioche buns, scones with lychee pearls) but that was just one of countless options.
But the whole point is that a vessel this size can take you anywhere. And at each new destination there is a mind-boggling range of options to choose from ashore.
You're perfectly free to do your own thing, as I did in Málaga – I know the city quite well – but in Casablanca I took advantage of one of the organised excursions.
"Yalla! Yalla! Let's go," exclaimed our guide and we were off, in a whirlwind of palaces, orange trees, donkeys and African sunshine.
I've spent quite a lot of time in Morocco but can honestly say I learnt more about the country in that one morning than I ever knew, largely thanks to our guide who kept up an exhilarating stream of anecdotes covering culture, architecture, religion and customs.
We explored the opulent royal palace, surrounded by cooling water features and lush orange groves, and the palace of justice. There was an astonishingly modernist church – then it was shoes off for the mosque, one of the largest in the world.
It was an earthquake-proof, air-conditioned, wired-for-sound monolith of travertine, onyx and Serrano glass, that looked like it came straight out of Game of Thrones. Then, after some sound advice on haggling, there was just time to pick up some souvenirs in the market quarter as the call to prayer got under way.
Entertainment with something for everyone
Madeira, the next port, was a fair sail but there was a staggering array of entertainment options to choose from while we made our way.
From simple activities such as deck sports – including quoits and shuffleboard – to classes for yoga, art and dancing, or even relaxing in the spa, you're never short of things to do. My wet shave in the spa was so good that I overindulged completely with a "massage madness" special and a manicure. And then a pedicure.
The scale of the productions in the ship's larger theatres is hard to convey. The Ventura Orchestra, the ship's big band, played to packed houses in the Havana lounge, although I found myself drawn back to the more intimate Tamarind Club, perfectly suited to classical and intimate singing.
Pianist Daniel Johnson was absolutely brilliant, his repertoire included everything I play on my Classic FM show from Bernstein's West Side Story to Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata.
There are so many options on board, it's a bit like being on tour with a band. You arrive somewhere different every day and have whatever you want, whenever you want. There really is something to suit everyone.
I'd like to come back with my kids and my parents – the Norwegian fjords tour looks spectacular, as does Hong Kong to Singapore via Vietnam and Bangkok. I certainly won't be short of cruises to pick from, this month is the first time both the summer 2017 programme and 2018 Round the World itineraries have been unveiled together. The world is your oyster.
Win a cruise
Enter the competition at telegraph.co.uk/pocruisesworld for your chance to win a 14-night Mediterranean cruise for two on Oceana.
The prize includes return flights from London Gatwick to Valletta, Malta, transfers between the airport and ship and accommodation in an outside cabin.
Meals and entertainment on board are also included. Departing on 6 July 2017, the itinerary includes Dubrovnik and Hvar, in Croatia, the Italian city of Venice, Split, Valletta, and Athens (with tours from Piraeus), Mykonos and Ephesus (from Kusadasi) and Chania (from Souda Bay). T&Cs apply.

I can finally draw breath. It's been a hectic wee while. School has thrown one thing after another after another at me. New Kapa Haka uniforms, a set of sports tops, cafe aprons for a class restaurant, House banners for the school hall… and even some teaching in there somewhere. There were kids in my room almost every lunchtime making stuffs. Look at the business quilt Gavin finished for his Dad for Father's Day:
I kept myself sane by sewing. You might think I'd be sick of it but, come home time, I'd snatch every minute I could to make happy things for myself. I was shocked when I worked out that I had pieced 6 quilt tops in August. SIX. It began with a simple square arrangement in vintage prints:
The colours made me so happy I sewed 2 more with matching patchy bindings, then a shirt quilt, a quilt from flannel patches and finally a table-topper from every yellow pillowcase I could find which then accidentally turned into… another quilt top.
I'm going to bind this one in pink gingham and wrap myself in it, lie on the deck and pretend it's summer. It's certainly getting warm enough. We even ate dinner outside the other night. Three weeks till spring break 🙂

Global and China Telematics Box (T-Box) Industry Report, 2017-2022 - Research and Markets
The "Global
and China Telematics Box (T-Box) Industry Report, 2017-2022"
report has been added to Research and Markets' offering.
Global IC market size was about USD309.4 billion in 2016, 7.4% of which
was constituted by automotive IC market.
The world's automotive IC market ballooned by 22.4% to USD28 billion in
2017, largely due to reduced cost and price of automotive IC,
particularly MCU, analog components and special purpose logic.
T-box is a connected-car-standard terminal that meets stringent
car-grade requirements on reliability, working temperature and
anti-interference and delivers multiple online applications including
vehicle remote monitoring, remote control, safety monitoring & warning
and remote diagnosis via 4G remote wireless communication, GPS satellite
positioning, acceleration sensing and CAN communication.
Connected car hardware is in general installed in the OEM market
(dominated by TCU technology) and the aftermarket (mostly via OBD port +
derivative device). For now, despite high penetration of OBD system, the
proprietary protocol of carmakers is hard to be cracked, limiting the
capability of aftermarket OBD devices to acquire data.
As connected car gradually penetrates and new energy vehicle
manufacturers have to know real-time state of battery and the vehicle,
global T-box market size will reach USD3.8 billion in 2020, representing
a CAGR of roughly 27%. The entry of the internet giants will drive the
growth of such market as well.
Among automotive electronic systems, in-vehicle electronics sees a
rising share year after year, squeezing the portion of power-control
electronic systems. Automotive electronic systems make up no more than
30% of the cost of a conventional car, compared with over 50% for a new
energy vehicle and even above 60% for a battery electric vehicle.
According to overall planning, new energy vehicle sales in China will
show an AAGR of 46% between 2016 and 2020, a strong driver for the
development of Chinese automotive electronics market which will register
around RMB872 billion in 2020.
Major Chinese T-box firms are Huawei Technologies, Flaircomm
Microelectronics and Shenzhen Thread Tech which face rivalry mainly from
foreign players including Bosch, Continental, Harman, Denso and LG.
Homegrown brand carmakers, like Chang'an Automobile and Trumpchi, seek
to co-develop T-box products with automotive electronics companies with
the aim of rapidly gaining market competitiveness and a good position at
the least cost.
Key Topics Covered:
1 Overview of T-box
2 Global T-box Industry
3 Foreign T-box Companies
4 China T-box Industry
5 Chinese T-box Companies
Companies Mentioned
- Harman
- Sierra
- Telit
- U-blox
