Re: The Shining City Upon a Hill
Yeah, it may have been 3.6 million. I went to the Kyocera shcool in Atlanta for that one. How many years has it been since that model was introduced?Adversity temporarily visits a strong man but stays with the weak for a lifetime.Comment

Re: The Shining City Upon a Hill
You sure don't show it with what you post. Really certifications merely show that you could afford to take the certification tests or that you had an employer who was will to pay for them. There are a lot of techs out there who actually know far more than you but never took the tests. Most of them have a considerably greater understanding of network operations than you shown so far.Comment

I'm with you on that. bsm2 talks a lot of shit but has never shown a great understanding of networking skills. For someone who claims to be an expert, it damn sure doesn't show.Adversity temporarily visits a strong man but stays with the weak for a lifetime.Comment

I don't remember his name but here's what I can tell you. I believe he was Spanish. Myself and one of my techs went to his class and on the first day he invited us to a strip club in Atlanta's Buckhead. The name of the strip club was The Cheetah Club. The last thing he told us before he dropped us off back at the hotel was don't be late for his class. It was 3 a.m. I didn't even go to sleep and showed up for his class 15 minutes early.
He came in an hour late. I was pissed. LOLAdversity temporarily visits a strong man but stays with the weak for a lifetime.Comment

Re: The Shining City Upon a Hill
I remember the last function I went to for Kyocera was a big party for all the dealers at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville. I didn't want to go but my area sales rep. convinced me to go. It was a big waste of time. Lots of food and drink. There were a lot of other big corporations hosting events at the same times and hookers were propositioning every man in sight. I also got to meet a lot of smug Kyocera dealers. Some were cool, though.Adversity temporarily visits a strong man but stays with the weak for a lifetime.Comment

Re: The Shining City Upon a Hill
That 38% rating is actually 37.8 rounded up to 38%. Biden took the hardest hit with independent voters, of whom an overwhelming 67% disapproved of his job performance. "If the election were today, those surveyed say, they would vote for their Republican congressional candidate over the Democratic one by 46%-38%."

Biden administration announcing actions to alleviate supply chain issues at nation's ports
The Biden administration announced a new set of immediate and short-term actions Tuesday aimed at alleviating supply chain issues at the nation's ports, waterways and freight networks as the administration takes steps to implement the newly passed, but not yet signed, bipartisan infrastructure bill.
The goals and actions, the White House said in a fact sheet, "lay the foundation for successful implementation of the historic Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal. This action plan will increase federal flexibilities for port grants; accelerate port infrastructure grant awards; announce new construction projects for coastal navigation, inland waterways, and land ports of entry; and launch the first round of expanded port infrastructure grants funded through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal."
The news comes days after the bipartisan infrastructure package passed Congress and one day before President Joe Biden's trip to the Port of Baltimore to promote the bill. Biden has not yet signed the bill into law, and the date for a signing ceremony is not yet set as the White House has signaled they will wait until Congress returns next week for an event.
But some efforts toward implementation are "already underway ... even before the bill is signed," a senior administration official told reporters on a briefing call. Pressed on timing, the official said that "there is work going on right now to actually get these projects teed up, get these programs teed up and out the door."
The actions announced Tuesday include flexibility for port grants through the Department of Transportation to solve supply chain disruptions, funding for a pop-up container yard project underway at the Port of Savannah, a $420 million grant program for ports and marine highways that will be launched within the next 45 days and identifying coastal and waterway projects for $4 billion in funding for US Army Corps of Engineers construction.
It will also prioritize identifying key US ports of entry for $3.4 billion of modernization and expansion projects within 90 days, and open competition for $475 million in port infrastructure grants through the bipartisan bill within 90 days.
"The entire goods movement system is assisted greatly through the bipartisan bill," the official said.

Re: The Shining City Upon a Hill
Saying this repeatedly does not make it true Billy boy.
I haven't seen anyone on here deny there is shipping and inflation issues.
