Communications Design Associates is the expert advice, design and engineering resource you can trust.
CDA is not your typical group of AV consultants. Before founding CDA in 1993 we were AV integrators, working closely with AV consultants. We saw consistent problems in the consultant owner-architect-integrator relationship, and knew we could be different. We've always believed that spending more time with the project team during the programming and planning stages would let us truly grasp their objectives, and in turn, produce a better detailed end product.
We have always felt strongly that a consultant must take the lead during the critical construction phase, and be there to support the trades and project teams during construction, as well as through commissioning. So we set out with earnest intent and a team approach that has proven us right for over twenty years. Since 1993 CDA has been the trusted technology adviser to leading companies and institutions across the US, and in Asia, Europe and Australia.

TheMoneyIllusion » Should the Fed worry about dollar debts?
Should the Fed worry about dollar debts?
Borrowers in emerging markets need to understand that interest rates are volatile. If they cannot afford to repay dollar-denominated debts when the dollar is strong, then they shouldn't be borrowing dollars in the first place. Borrow in your local currency.
Arrgggh! I can't believe that in 2018, respectable publications are still making this basic error. The Fed does not target the TIPS spread at 2%, as that spread is based on CPI inflation, not the PCE inflation rate that is the actual target of Fed policy. When CPI inflation is running at 2.07%, PCE inflation runs around 1.8%.
This entry was posted on June 05th, 2018 and is filed under Monetary Policy. You can follow any responses to this entry through the RSS 2.0 feed. You can leave a response or Trackback from your own site.
BE also includes a risk premium. Should run a good bit above target even if it were based on the correct index.
There is a lot of concern in the Far East that Fed tightening and US borrowing will lead to capital flows to the West and the US, thus provoking credit tightness and then a property price plummet in Asia.
This real estate dump could spread to the US. We know what happens when real estate values fall in the US; you get a financial system collapse.
About one-half of US commercial banks loans are extended on real estate, and banks borrow short to lend long. Inherently vulnerable.
OT, Sumner has a post on Kevin Erdmann and housing prices in his latest Econlog missive.
It is worth pondering why 1000 US macroeconomists will sign a fear-mongering letter that Trump's trade policies will likely trigger another global Great Depression, but Erdmann soldiers on nearly alone on the issue of property zoning.
Kudos to Sumner and the Mercatus Center for shedding some light on Erdmann, and the larger and more-dangerous structural impediment of property zoning.
TIPS spread at 2.08 does show that that "the market" is showing a fair amount of confidence that the Fed will indeed hit its targets.
I'd love to see that letter, but I doubt it exists.
Given Doug Irwin's findings, and Scott Sumner's superb book, we know that the Smoot-Hawley's tariffs had little bite, but that monetary policy drove the US down, along possibly with some NRA stuff.
I stand by statement that US macroeconomists engage in hyperbole and fear-mongerig when they discuss global trade issues. How is the above statement not fear-mongering?
It may be that Trump tariffs will slightly lower US living standards, or possibly slow US GDP growth. That is a reasonable argument. The record after Nixon and Reagan tariffs and trade restrictions does not suggest a Great Depression.
Or, a proponent might say trade tariffs, carefully executed, will raise US GNI while encouraging capital investment in US plant and equipment and will have some long-run payoffs.
How about we predict "a US economic boom" after Trump tariffs are implemented? That is about as likely as a Great Depression.
The good thing about a 10 year BE of 2.07% (on CPI) might be that even though the Fed recently said overshooting (ie, procyclical) inflation is OK, the actual policy is less procyclical than feared? My sense though is that with projected NGDP growth at 4.6%, a moderately lower 10 year BE would be more appropriate.
Ben, So where is the letter that supposedly makes this claim? Your links don't provide it. Nor do the quotes you provide back up your claim. You should not make assertions unless you can back them up.
I agree. As a longtime reader of FT, I noticed a perceptible difference in reporting between 2000-2015 FT and after. This is especially so during the recent Abe travails where his partners are being caught redhanded in corruption, and the related popularity plummet/market fall.
You will not see any pessimistic news about Japan in FT's commetary/opinion section. But I've seen an immense increase in pessimistic/hostile news about Japan's rivals.

Anti-Clinton library receives IRS tax exempt status
LITTLE ROCK, ARK. - A group dedicated to building the Counter Clinton Library – a rebuttal to the Clinton Presidential Library – has been granted status as a tax-exempt nonprofit organization.
The move could help the group with fund-raising but also requires it to be more public about its supporters.
Counterlibe Corp. of Washington, D.C., received word this month from the IRS that it had received the tax-exempt status to pursue its goal of responding to what it sees as "propaganda" planned for the official $160 million presidential library, which is scheduled to open Nov. 18 in Little Rock.
To keep its tax exemption, the Counter Clinton Library must fulfill its plans of building bricks-and-mortar museums in Little Rock and Washington displaying what it promises will be documented negatives from Bill Clinton's eight years in the White House.
Counter Clinton Library founder Dick Erickson envisions 16 rooms of multimedia-based exhibits in Little Rock in time for the opening of the presidential library.
Mr. Erickson is visiting Little Rock this week from Houston to woo secret support and secure a museum location in the Little Rock area. He said Wednesday that both efforts require secrecy to avoid subterfuge from Clinton's Arkansas friends.
But the tax-exempt status means that Mr. Erickson and co-founder John LeBoutillier, former Republican congressman from New York, will not be able to keep names of contributors or land acquisitions secret for long. Counterlibe Corp. will have to file that and other information with the IRS next year.

This is an old family recipe that I remember eating at nearly every holiday. I think we ate it as kids only to get the toppings, and I probably ate just enough soup to hold all the popcorn, cheese, and sunflower seeds together; but now we adore this soup by itself and yes, we still eat it at nearly every holiday. The only thing I've changed is adding the chipotle; however, this soup is just as good without it.
Saute onion and celery in butter until limp but not browned.
Add chicken broth, potato, pumpkin, and chipotle, if using. Bring to boil, then simmer, covered, until potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.
Blend with an immersion blender, or regular blender (you'll have to do it in batches in a regular blender) until smooth.
Season soup with salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
Stir in half & half, and reheat just to a simmer.
**NOTE** The best part about this soup is the toppings. Place each topping in a separate bowl, and allow everyone to add his or her own.


When the painted cave of Altamira in northern Sapin was discovered in the late nineteenth century few believed that the decoration was the work of stone age man. As further discoveries were made in France and Spain and archaeologists proved the antiquity of the remarkable art, modern man realised the great skill and artistic ability of his forebears during the extreme cold at the end of the ice age. Between 35,000 and 12,000 years ago, hunters penetrated deep into caves to paint and engrave images of wild animals, many of them, like the mammoth and wooly rhinoceros, now long extinct. Because of the risks involved, this was clearly done for some special, perhaps religious or ceremonial purpose. At caves like Lascaux in France many parts of the walls and ceilings were covered with spectacular and colourful paintings, while other caves were carved or engraved with the lifelike figures. This book describes the evidence of the way of life of the artists and how archaeologists pieced together the evidence of this remote period. It analyses how the art was executed and is dated, what it portrays and where it is to be found. The animals depicted are described and the interpretations behind the decoration explored. The book is written as an introduction to a complex and fascinating subject which is seldom presented and explained in an uncomplicated fashion.

WWF Invasion
This article is about the pay-per-view event. For the storyline, see The Invasion (professional wrestling).
Invasion (also typeset as InVasion) was a professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by the then World Wrestling Federation (WWF). It took place on July 22, 2001 at the Gund Arena in Cleveland, Ohio. This event was initially planned to be called Fully Loaded, as it was advertised at the King of the Ring event, which immediately preceded Invasion. Invasion was the first pay-per-view to feature the ongoing Invasion storyline, which featured wrestlers from the WWF taking on The Coalition, a combined force of wrestlers from World Championship Wrestling (WCW) and Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW), later known as The Alliance. The event featured WWF wrestlers facing WCW and ECW wrestlers.

The main event, dubbed the "Inaugural Brawl," was a five-on-five tag team match between Team WWF and Team WCW/ECW. The other main match was a singles match for the WWF Hardcore Championship between Rob Van Dam and Jeff Hardy.[2][3] With a buyrate of 770,000, the event is the highest grossing non-WrestleMania pay-per-view in WWE history.[4]

StorylinesEdit
Vince McMahon, the owner of the World Wrestling Federation
On March 23, the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) bought out its long-time rival, World Championship Wrestling (WCW). The last episode of WCW Monday Nitro aired on March 26, dubbed the "Night of Champions". Nitro started with WWF Owner Vince McMahon announcing a simulcast with Raw Is War later that night to address the future of WCW, during which it was revealed that Shane McMahon had bought WCW.[5] At WrestleMania X-Seven on April 1, Shane defeated Vince in a Street Fight with some of the WCW talent in attendance, sitting in the upper level seats at the Reliant Astrodome. During May and June, WCW wrestlers interfered in matches on WWF programming.[6] At the 2001 King of the Ring, Booker T interfered during a Triple Threat match for the WWF Championship and tossed Steve Austin through the announcers table, nearly costing him the title.[7]
On the following night, the June 25 episode of Raw Is War, Shane declared his intention to invade the WWF, and the Invasion storyline started with Booker T performing a scissors kick to Vince.[8] On the June 28 episode of SmackDown!, it was decided that Fully Loaded was to be changed to Invasion, and would feature matches between WWF and WCW.[9] The ultimate goal, reportedly, was for WCW to "take over" one of the WWF's two primary programs, either Raw Is War or SmackDown!, and rebrand it as its own separate entity. To test the waters for this, the final twenty minutes of the July 2 Raw Is War telecast was given over to WCW, which brought in its own commentators (Scott Hudson and Arn Anderson), ring announcer (Stacy Keibler), referee (Nick Patrick), ring apron, and Chyron graphics, to present a match between Booker T and Buff Bagwell for Booker's WCW Championship (which he had won on the final episode of Nitro). This continued on SmackDown!, where Gregory Helms lost the WCW Cruiserweight Championship against Billy Kidman and Booker defended the WCW Championship against Diamond Dallas Page. The Booker/Bagwell title match, however, was very poorly received both by television viewers and the live crowd in the arena, with the two other WCW matches receiving a similar reaction. The decision was thus made to make WCW a heel group who was out to destroy the WWF.[10] On the July 9 on Raw Is War, when then-face WCW owner Shane was scheduled to face Page in a street fight, the two instead attacked The Undertaker, turning Shane heel (Page had already debuted in WWF as a heel, as part of a stalker angle with Undertaker and his wife). Later that night, Chris Jericho and Kane (from the WWF) fought Lance Storm and Mike Awesome (from WCW) in a tag team match. It ended in a no contest when the ECW Alumni from both the WWF and WCW along with the debuting Rob Van Dam and Tommy Dreamer made their way to the ring. As it looked as though they were going after Storm and Awesome, they instead attacked Jericho and Kane. This led to the Raw color-commentator Paul Heyman leaving the announcer's booth and declared that Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) has joined the invasion and stated that the invasion has been taken to the extreme, leading to some WWF and WCW wrestlers (including Raven, Lance Storm, Rhyno, The Dudley Boyz, and Tazz) defecting to ECW. Shane appeared to co-operate with Vince against ECW, but later that night, it was revealed that WCW and ECW had merged, and that Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley (who was last seen on the May 21 episode of Raw Is War) now owned ECW.[11]
Earlier in the year, Austin had a change in character, becoming more emotional, and friendly with Vince. On the July 12 episode of SmackDown!, Vince said he needed the "old" Austin, an anti-hero tough character, to lead the WWF at Invasion. After Vince pleaded with him, Austin shook his head and left.[12] During the July 16 episode of Raw is War, Austin was shown drinking in a bar. Later that night, a fight started between many WWF wrestlers, and WCW and ECW wrestlers. As WWF seemed to be disadvantaged, Austin arrived, and returned to his old character, fighting off the WCW and ECW wrestlers. The WWF wrestlers (Steve Austin, Kurt Angle, Chris Jericho, Kane, The Undertaker) then cleared out the ring, and were left standing tall.[13] On the July 19 episode of SmackDown!, Heyman says that he wants to bring back wrestling, and destroy sports entertainment by giving the WWF its last rites with The Alliance members, "In nomine Patris et Filii et Spiritus Sancti, Amen!", while proclaiming "Death to sports entertainment! Death to the WWF!".[14]

The match started with Hebner delivering kicks in the corner, followed by punches, and knee drops to the midsection, but Patrick pulled Hebner outside. Back in the ring, Patrick stomped Hebner, but Hebner fought back with punches, and mounted punches. Patrick fought back by performing a low blow, and sent Hebner outside with a baseball slide. WCW referees stomped Hebner until Foley stopped them, and ejected them from ringside. Back in the ring, Patrick complained to Foley, allowing Hebner to perform a flying shoulder block, and pin Patrick for the victory. After the match, Patrick argued with Foley. Foley punched him, and applied the mandible claw.[2][3]
The third match was between the APA (Faarooq and Bradshaw) (WWF), and Sean O'Haire and Chuck Palumbo (WCW). The teams were the tag team champions of their promotions. The match began with the APA performing a double spinebuster to Palumbo. Bradshaw had the advantage over Palumbo, then O'Haire. After Faarooq tagged in, O'Haire countered a belly-to-back suplex attempt, and performed a knee lift. Palumbo tagged in, and Faarooq performed a flying shoulder block. Bradshaw then tagged in, and performed a fallaway slam to Palumbo. O'Haire then kicked Bradshaw in the head, and performed a Widow Maker. Palumbo tagged in, and Bradshaw fought back with a DDT. After Faarooq tagged in, O'Haire pulled him out of the ring, and sent him into the ringsteps. They dominated Faarooq until Faarooq fought back with a spinebuster. Bradshaw and Palumbo tagged in, and Bradshaw performed a big boot, and a powerslam. As Bradshaw attempted a fallaway slam, O'Haire performed a superkick, and dropped Bradshaw onto the top turnbuckle. After Faarooq sent O'Haire outside, Palumbo performed a superkick to Faarooq, and Bradshaw pinned Palumbo after performing a Clothesline from Hell.[2][3]
The fourth match was between the WWF Light Heavyweight Champion X-Pac and the WCW Cruiserweight Champion Billy Kidman. The match started back and forth until Kidman performed a hurricanrana, and an enzuigiri. X-Pac fought back after sending Kidman over the top rope, and performed a springboard reverse crossbody to the outside. Back in the ring, X-Pac applied the sleeper hold. Kidman escaped, and applied the sleeper hold, but X-Pac countered with a belly-to-back suplex. X-Pac went to the top rope, and performed a somersault legdrop, but Kidman avoided it. Kidman performed a B.K. Bomb, and mounted punches, which X-Pac countered with a powerbomb. X-Pac attempted another powerbomb, but Kidman reversed it into a sitout facebuster. X-Pac then countered an aerial attack with an X-Factor. As he attempted a Bronco buster, Kidman lifted his leg, performing a low blow. Kidman then pinned X-Pac after a shooting star press.[2][3]
The fifth match was between Raven (ECW) and WWF commissioner William Regal (WWF). Regal gained the early advantage following a double underhook suplex, and a catapult, sending Raven outside. Back in the ring, Raven tossed Regal over top rope, and performed a baseball slide, and a Russian legsweep into the security wall. Back in the ring, Raven performed a diving punch to Regal's forehead. Regal countered another attempt, and performed a knee lift. Raven fought back with a corner clothesline, and a running bulldog. Regal fought back, countering a Raven Effect DDT into a Northern Lights suplex. After both collided, Raven rolled out of the ring, as Tazz came down. As the referee checked on Raven, Tazz performed a T-Bone suplex to Regal. Tazz left, and Raven pinned Regal after performing a Raven Effect DDT.[2][3]
The sixth match was between The Big Show, Billy Gunn and Albert (WWF), and Chris Kanyon, Shawn Stasiak and Hugh Morrus (WCW). Before the match began, the WWF wrestlers gorilla pressed the WCW wrestlers. The match started with Kanyon attacking Gunn in the corner. Gunn performed an electric chair drop, but Stasiak hit a cheap shot, and Kanyon performed a Russian legsweep followed by a forward Russian legsweep. Stasiak tagged in, and Gunn performed a neckbreaker slam. After Albert tagged in, Kanyon and Morrus entered the ring, but Gunn and The Big Show threw them out.

The eighth match was between Rob Van Dam (RVD) (ECW) and Jeff Hardy (WWF) for the WWF Hardcore Championship. Before the match began, RVD attacked Matt Hardy from behind with a steel chair. The match started back and forth with a quick pace. Hardy gained the advantage after a dropkick to the back. After Hardy missed a crossbody, RVD performed a standing moonsault, a lifting double underhook facebuster, and a rolling thunder. RVD then climbed the turnbuckles, but Hardy shoved him outside. Outside, Hardy walked the barricade, but RVD sent him into the crowd. After a moonsault from the barricade, Hardy was placed over the barricade, and RVD performed a spinning heel kick off the apron. Hardy fought back with a sunset flip powerbomb from the apron, took out a ladder, and climbed it. However, RVD tipped the ladder, causing Hardy to fall.

Stratus then performed a bulldog to Keibler, and Lita performed a Litasault. They then removed Keibler's pants to win the match.[2][3]
Main eventEdit
The main event was the "Inaugural Brawl", a no disqualification ten-man tag team match between Booker T, Diamond Dallas Page, The Dudley Boyz (Bubba Ray Dudley and D-Von Dudley) and Rhyno (Team WCW/ECW), and Stone Cold Steve Austin, Kurt Angle, The Undertaker, Kane and Chris Jericho (Team WWF). WCW Owner Shane McMahon, ECW Owner Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley, ECW General Manager Paul Heyman, and WWF Owner Vince McMahon were at ringside. The Undertaker attacked Page during his entrance, and all wrestlers fought at ringside. The match began with Team WWF having the advantage as Austin dominated Rhyno. Team WCW/ECW gained the advantage after Page performed a hangman to The Undertaker. Team WCW/ECW dominated The Undertaker until he performed a DDT. Team WWF kept the advantage until Booker performed a flapjack to Jericho with help from D-Von. Jericho fought back, knocking down the Dudley Boyz, and tagged in Angle. Angle fought the Dudley Boyz until Bubba Ray performed a Bubba Bomb. Angle was dominated by Team WCW/ECW until The Undertaker came in illegally, and attacked Page.[2][3] All wrestlers entered the ring, and fought. The Undertaker fought with Page, and, after performing a chokeslam, they fought into the crowd. Austin was down holding his knee as Booker and Angle were lying in the ring. On the outside, Kane was double-teamed by the Dudley Boyz. Kane eventually fought back, performing a chokeslam to D-Von through the announce table. Bubba Ray and Rhyno then sent Kane through the other announce table with a double suplex. Jericho then sent Rhyno through a table with a shoulder block from the apron. In the ring, Bubba Ray and Booker double-teamed Angle until Angle fought back, performing a German suplex to Booker, and an Angle Slam to Bubba Ray. Angle attempted to apply the ankle lock on Booker, but Booker kicked him into the referee. Booker then performed a flapjack, and all three were down. Vince got the WWF Championship belt, and attempted to throw it to Angle. Shane took it, and hit Vince with it. Shane failed to hit Angle, and Angle threw both Shane and Bubba Ray out of the ring. Angle performed an Angle Slam on Booker, and applied the ankle lock. After sending the referee back in the ring, Austin turned on Team WWF by performing a Stone Cold Stunner to Angle. Booker then pinned Angle to win the match for Team WCW/ECW. After the match, Austin celebrated with Shane, Stephanie and Heyman.[2][3]
AftermathEdit
After this pay-per-view, the Invasion storyline continued. The following night on Raw is War, Steve Austin explained his defection was because he felt unappreciated. WCW/ECW, now referred to as The Alliance, had the momentum, holding the WWF Championship, the WWF Intercontinental Championship, and the WWF Hardcore Championship in addition to all of WCW's titles.[17] The feud soon centered around the return of The Rock, and which team he would join, as both Vince and Shane attempted to persuade The Rock to join their team.[18] The Rock remained with the WWF, and engaged in a feud with Booker T over the WCW Championship. Austin would begin a feud with Kurt Angle over the WWF Championship after the events at Invasion.[19]

The absence of any detectable 134-Cs (an unambiguous fingerprint isotope of Fukushima contamination) in the seawater samples indicates that as of November 2014 these locations covering the length of the British Columbia coast have not be affected by ocean currents carrying Fukushima contamination.
Newly added results come from seawater samples collected in collaboration with citizen scientists at the following locations in British Columbia, Canada during November 2014.
The absence of detectable 134-Cs indicates that waters near these locations spanning the length of British Columbia have not been contaminated with Fukushima radioactive elements transported across the Pacific by prevailing currents as of Nov 2014. The presence of 137-Cs is due to historical sources of this human made isotope owing to atmospheric nuclear weapons tests in the 20th century and contamination from the Chernobyl disaster in 1986. You can read about the levels of 137-Cs in the North Pacific pre-Fukushima here.
More results will be published as they become available.

They are called LPFM, or Low Power FM stations, and they are relatively rare. Only two exist in the Raleigh area--WCOM, 103.5 in Carrboro, and WRLY, 93.5, which covers a small section of northeastern Raleigh. These stations are small and can broadcast no further than 3.5 miles on 100 watts. Yet, these small frequencies on the FM dial are highly coveted. Kelly Reid and Jacob Downey have a station, Little Raleigh Radio (LRR), and they have requested the 105.6 position. However, they have competition from four religious groups, one as far away as Texas. Porter explains what the process involves.

Police shoot man being held for mental health at Florida hospital | Mental health
Mar 29, 2022 Florida, Health, held, hospital, man, mental, Police, shoot
A 29-year-old man being held for his mental health in a Florida hospital was fatally shot after he grabbed a pair of scissors and threatened to stab sheriff's deputies.
The man was among a number of people being held in the hospital despite threatening to harm themselves or others because there were no beds at the local mental health facility, said the Indian River county sheriff, Eric Flowers.
"It's a terrible tragedy, not just in our county, but in our country. We're facing a mental health crisis," Flowers said.
The man's family brought him to the emergency department of the Cleveland Clinic Indian River in Vero Beach on Friday after he tried to hang himself, Flowers told reporters on Sunday.
"He grabs a pair of scissors, large scissors, and he's running through the hospital," the sheriff said.
Deputies began chasing him, and he raised the scissors over his head.
"At that point our deputies begin to retreat back," Flowers said. "Again, a small narrow hallway, gurneys, all kinds of stuff in there. They draw their weapons and two of the deputies fire, shooting and killing this man."
The man was being held under the Florida Mental Health Act, commonly called the Baker Act, which allows authorities to hold someone in a mental health facility for up to 72 hours if they are a threat to themselves or others.
He and other patients also brought to the hospital on mental health holds couldn't get care at a mental health facility on Saturday because it was full, Flowers said.
"The fact that we were up there taking people in for suicidal incidents for Baker Acts, that they had multiple Baker Act patients awaiting transportation to a facility because there's not enough beds, and the fact that this gentleman had been waiting there for a day and a half shows what kind of mental health crisis we're in right now," the sheriff said.

Is Turkey the New Pakistan?
by Martin Forgues · August 2, 2015
Following months of political pressure from Western powers engaged in the fight against ISIS, and due to the fact that an estimated 3,000 of its citizens have joined the self-proclaimed caliphate, Turkey finally hopped on the war bandwagon. They've begun bombing ISIS positions along the Turkey-Syria border and allowing allied use of a strategically located air base in Incirlik.
But what appears to be a game-changing event in the war against ISIS may just prove to be yet another historical repeat, and make Turkey this war's Pakistan.
Turkey's reluctance to join the fight has been suspicious from the start; the country has been a member of NATO since 1952 and still remains a candidate to join the European Union to this day. Its military is one major regional power, with close to half a million personnel, 700 Leopard tanks, modern weaponry, and an estimated 270 F-16 fighter aircraft. Since ISIS remains to this day mostly a regional threat, Turkey should have been pounding bombs across the border for months. Given an all-out ground war, ISIS simply doesn't stand a chance against Turkey's military might. Theirs is a capability that brings into question why countries like Canada and the U.S. are currently carrying most of the burden, notably training Kurdish forces who have been, for the past year, the most effective allies against ISIS.

INTERNATIONAL UNION UNITED AUTOMOBILE AEROSPACE AND AGRICULTURAL IMPLEMENT WORKERS OF AMERICA AFL CIO v. NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD
INTERNATIONAL UNION, UNITED AUTOMOBILE, AEROSPACE, AND AGRICULTURAL IMPLEMENT WORKERS OF AMERICA, AFL-CIO, Petitioner, v. NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD, Respondent.
Docket No. 05-6026-ag.
Before: MINER and RAGGI, Circuit Judges, and RAKOFF, District Judge. * Thomas W. Meiklejohn, Livingston, Adler, Pulda, Meiklejohn & Kelly, P.C., Hartford, CT, for Petitioner. Heather S. Beard (Ronald Meisburg, General Counsel, John E. Higgins, Jr., Deputy General Counsel, John H. Ferguson, Associate General Counsel, Aileen A. Armstrong, Deputy Associate General Counsel, Fred B. Jacob, Supervisory Attorney, William M. Bernstein, Senior Attorney,), National Labor Relations Board, Washington, D.C., for Respondent.
Petitioner International Union, United Automobile, Aerospace, and Agricultural Implement Workers of America, AFL-CIO ("the Union") petitions for review of those parts of a decision of the National Labor Relations Board ("NLRB" or the "Board") that found that Stanadyne Automobile Corporation ("Stanadyne" or the "Employer") did not commit unfair labor practices in the period immediately preceding a representation election.
Stanadyne is an automobile parts manufacturer. In January 2000, the Union began an organizing drive among the employees working at Stanadyne's plant in Windsor, Connecticut. On May 15, 2000, the Union filed a petition with the NLRB seeking a representation election, and the Board scheduled the election for June 29, 2000.
Before the Union filed the election petition, Stanadyne had no rule prohibiting employees from talking during working hours about any topic they chose. However, after the petition was filed on May 15, 2000, Stanadyne supervisors informed employees that they were not allowed to discuss the Union or solicit Union support during working hours. Some employees were informed that discussing the Union during company time could result in the Employer disciplining or firing them. These actions, as the Board subsequently found, were clear violations of rights protected by Section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act ("NLRA" or the "Act"), 29 U.S.C. ¶ 157. Stanadyne has not appealed that determination.
On June 6, 2000, the President and Chief Executive Officer of Stanadyne, William Gurley, delivered a prepared speech to groups of employees at the Windsor plant, in which he promulgated a rule against "harassment." Specifically, Gurley stated:
[I]t has come to my attention that some Union supporters, not all, but some, are harassing fellow employees. You can disagree with the Company position; you can be for the Union. You can be for anything you want to, but no one should be harassed. Harassment of any type is not tolerated by this Company and will be dealt with.
On June 21, 2000, or little more than a week before the election, Stanadyne again held meetings to address groups of employees. At each meeting, Gurley and Stanadyne managers Art Caruso and Ron Binkus gave prepared remarks. Gurley stated that the law only required that Stanadyne negotiate with the Union, and continued:
However, if after negotiating we were not willing to accept the Union's proposals or the Union were not willing to accept the Company's proposals, then the Union only has two options that I know of: (1) It can accept the Company's offer, or (2) It can call you out on strike in order to try to get Stanadyne to agree to its proposals.
Following Gurley's remarks, Caruso discussed potential negative ramifications of a strike, such as loss of pay, loss of health insurance, ineligibility for unemployment compensation, inability to pay bills, and permanent loss of jobs. On the issue of the likelihood of strikes, Caruso said that "research shows they happen often, but to the extent they happen even once, one is too many. Although strikes are not inevitable, everyone knows that where unions exist, strikes occur." Caruso also characterized the Union's local affiliate as "strike happy."
Binkus then spoke, describing his experiences with unions at other plants, including an oral strike vote at a union meeting where he had felt so intimidated that he abandoned his planned "no" vote. Binkus further described "intimidation, sabotage, and violence" that regularly occurred in unionized facilities each time a collective-bargaining agreement was about to expire. He also described a confrontation at a Stanadyne plant where a guard died after being struck in the head during an altercation with pro-union employees. Binkus concluded his remarks by stating that "violence, threats, intimidation, and a death ․ happened at UAW locations" and exhorting the employees to keep themselves out of "a violent environment" by "vot[ing] 'no'."
Finally, Gurley spoke again at the conclusion of the meetings, saying "union members also have means to threaten and coerce fellow members. Please be careful of the path you take, you may not like where it ends." Gurley then unveiled an eight-foot by twelve-foot, two-sided poster, each side of which displayed seven photographs of dilapidated buildings and vacant lots. The top of the poster read: "These are just a few examples of plants where the UAW used to represent employees." Across each photo was the word "CLOSED" in large red block letters. Across the bottom of the poster were the question "Is This What the UAW Calls Job Security?" and the phrase "VOTE NO!" Copies of the poster were displayed throughout the plant during the week before the election.
Sometime between the promulgation of the no-harassment rule on June 6 and the meetings with employees on June 21, Stanadyne posted a notice in the Windsor plant announcing a change in the formula for pension benefit calculations that would increase the benefit from $19 per month per year of service to $21, effective July 1, 2000. According to Stanadyne, this increase was the result of its regular program for increasing benefits, under which Stanadyne's Compensation and Benefits manager, Richard Lurie, twice yearly reviewed benefits offered by other comparable employers and submitted a recommendation to management based on his review. If Stanadyne then decided to make changes to its employee benefits, it typically did so on the January 1 or July 1 following the recommendation, announcing the changes one to two weeks before the effective date.
On June 29, 2000, the Union lost the election at the Windsor facility. Based on the above facts, an Administrative Law Judge ("ALJ") found that the Employer had violated the NLRA when it prohibited discussing the Union or soliciting support for the Union during working hours. The ALJ further found that Gurley's June 6 no-harassment statement was a threat of reprisal for protected activity in violation of the NLRA, and that the set of speeches given on June 21 (including presentation of the poster) involved threats of plant closure and job loss that also violated the NLRA. Finally, the ALJ found that the announcement of increased pension benefits violated the Act because its purpose was to dissuade employees from voting for the Union.
The NLRB affirmed the ALJ's finding that Stanadyne violated the NLRA by prohibiting discussions or solicitations regarding unionization during working hours, but otherwise reversed the ALJ's findings. The Union seeks review by this Court of the NLRB's determinations regarding the June 6 promulgation of the purported no-harassment rule, the June 21 speeches, and the mid-June announcement of the increase in pension benefits.
As the outset, we note that our review of the Board's decision is highly deferential. Specifically, we review the NLRB's factual findings to determine "whether they are supported by 'substantial evidence' in light of the record as a whole," Elec. Contractors, Inc. v. NLRB, 245 F.3d 109, 116 (2d Cir.2001) (quoting 29 U.S.C. § 160(e) & (f)), and we review the Board's legal conclusions "to ensure that they have a 'reasonable basis in law,' " id. (quoting AT & T v. NLRB, 67 F.3d 446, 451 (2d Cir.1995)). Furthermore, we " 'defer to the Board's decision when there appears to be more than one reasonable resolution and the Board has adopted one of these.' " Id. (quoting Sheridan Manor Nursing Home, Inc. v. NLRB, 225 F.3d 248, 252 (2d Cir.2000)).
In view of this deference, we cannot say that the Board's application of law to fact was unreasonable with respect to either the June 21, 2000, speeches or the mid-June announcement of the increase in benefits. An employer is not so cabined by the prohibition against interfering with a union election that it cannot express its views about unionization "so long as the communications do not contain a 'threat of reprisal or force or promise of benefit.' " NLRB v. Gissel Packing Co., 395 U.S. 575, 618, 89 S.Ct. 1918, 23 L.Ed.2d 547 (1969) (quoting 29 U.S.C. § 158(c)). The Board found that the June 21 speeches (including the poster) did not constitute threats and that, if predictions were made, they were "carefully phrased on the basis of objective fact to convey [Stanadyne's] belief as to demonstrably probable consequences beyond [its] control." Id. While it might not have been unreasonable to find to the contrary (as the ALJ did), we cannot say that the Board's reading of the June 21 speeches was unreasonable.
As to the mid-June announcement of the increase in pension benefits, even though there is a presumption that an increase in benefits or the announcement of such an increase between the filing of a petition for an election and the election itself is motivated by a desire to interfere with "employee freedom of choice," Baltimore Catering Co., 148 N.L.R.B. 970, 973 (1964), in this case the Board determined that Stanadyne had overcome the presumption and did not, in fact, act for the purpose of influencing the election. Given the company's undisputed prior history of announcing changes in benefits in or around mid-June, we cannot say that the Board's factual determination was not supported by substantial evidence or that it was unreasonable.
We cannot agree, however, that the Board acted reasonably in concluding that the purported no-harassment rule was not a violation of the NLRA. An employer may not promulgate a rule which has a chilling effect on the right to organize or join a union. See 29 U.S.C. § 158(a)(1); Dist. Lodge 91, Int'l Ass'n of Machinists v. NLRB, 814 F.2d 876, 879-80 (2d Cir.1987). Even if a rule does not explicitly restrict protected activity, the Board has determined that the rule will constitute a violation if: "(1) employees would reasonably construe the language to prohibit [protected] activity; (2) the rule was promulgated in response to union activity; or (3) the rule has been applied to restrict the exercise of [protected] rights." Martin Luther Mem'l Home, Inc., 343 N.L.R.B. 646, 647 (2004).
Whether or not Gurley's professed reason for the no-harassment rule-"it has come to my attention that some Union supporters, not all, but some, are harassing fellow employees"-is by itself sufficient to demonstrate an NLRA violation, it was certainly unreasonable for the Board to find that "employees would [not] reasonably construe [the no-harassment rule] to prohibit [protected] activity." Id. Here, as elsewhere, context is everything. When Gurley announced the no-harassment rule on June 6, Stanadyne had already promulgated an illegal rule, conveyed by its supervisors to the employees, that the employees were not allowed to discuss unionization or solicit co-workers on that issue during working hours. Against that background, no reasonable employee could fail to infer that the rule against "harassment," which Gurley did not define and which, for example, can amount to no more than persistent annoyance, see Merriam Webster's Collegiate Dictionary 529 (10th ed.1997), was intended to discourage protected election activity.
The Board's reliance on Gurley's knowledge of unprotected activity, such as vandalism, graffiti, and a battery, is irrelevant; for what counts, under the first prong of Martin Luther, is the knowledge and understanding of a reasonable employee. Gurley nowhere made express reference to these incidents in his speech, and no evidence was presented to the Board to show that the employees generally would have known of these specific incidents and understood that Gurley was referring to these specific incidents. Nor is there anything in the record to suggest that, even if a reasonable employee had known and understood that Gurley might have been referring to unprotected activity, the employee would have considered the no-harassment rule limited to such conduct.
Accordingly, we grant the Union's petition for review in part and vacate the NLRB's determination as to the lawfulness of the no-harassment rule promulgated on June 6, 2000, and remand to the NLRB for further proceedings consistent with this decision.
RAKOFF, District Judge.

President Donald Trump drew vocal criticism Thursday after a series of early-morning tweets that dismissed the deaths of thousands of Americans in Puerto Rico as a result of devastation from 2017′s Hurricane Maria.
Trump later added in a second tweet that the larger reported death toll was the work of Democrats attempting to recast the president's successful response to the tragedy.
Among the voices correcting the president's tweets online was that of Spencer Cox, Utah's Republican lieutenant governor, who went to Puerto Rico to do volunteer aid work in the aftermath of the 2017 Hurricane season.
Cox tweeted photos of his visit to the island on Thursday, saying the devastation was "heart-breaking" to witness firsthand.
Cox is an occasional critic of Trump's most divisive statements and policies. He gained international attention in June after tweeting that he wanted to "punch someone" over the administration's separation of migrant families and detention of children at the U.S.-Mexico border.
Some in my party are doing and supporting things I never thought possible. You won't believe me, but your party is capable of it too. We get what we deserve. If we want change, we have to change ourselves.
A former member of the Utah Legislature, Cox is also seen as a likely candidate for the state's 2020 gubernatorial election.
While initial fatalities from Hurricane Maria were reported in low, double-digit figures, the territorial government's official death count was raised to 2,975 following an independent study by the Milken Institute School of Public Health at George Washington University. Researchers concluded that larger numbers of Puerto Ricans died following the initial storm devastation as a result of lost access to power, supplies, medical treatment, transportation and communication.
