Your Questions for the Power Plant Press Conference

HTH Peppersauce says: "Please explain why the identification marking plates have brush strokes of paint on them. I've never seen a new machine that got painted after the plates were installed."

Your Questions for the Power Plant Press Conference

John French II says: "Notes From A Native Son of the RocK. Please provide the name(s) of The Electrical Engineering Consultants who designed the Electro-thermal Plant including the Substation. Please advise the name(s) of the Electrical Consultants who analyzed the Existing Transmission Grid for adequacy and synchronization with the New Electro-thermal Plant. How many Bids were received for Project Management of the Design Build Contract, value of those bids and the Consultant selected? With whom did the Project Manager of record hold a Contract for Project Management Services on the Electr-thermal Plant and Substation? How many bids were received for Independent Testing and Commissioning of the Electro-thermal Plant and Substation, the value of those bids and the Independent Commisioning Agent Selected? Who was thw Independent Commissioning Agent contracted with? Has APUA been provided with the Commissioning data and testing results prior to the start-up and turnover of the Electro-thermal Plant and Substation? Was any Electrical or Mechanical Engineer from APUA assigned to work with Independent Commissioning Agent and to witness the Commissioning Process?"

Bass Says Employers Acting Unlawfully

STEVE says: "I have said it over and over and over again. THIS MAN (BASS) IN MY HUMBLE OPINION, IS SUCH A HYPOCRITE. There is not enough space here for me to speak about his hypocricy. One day, I might meet him on his new hang out radio station (Z.D.K.)."

Lindsey Gets 22 Years

carvaa says: ""HOW CRIME GONE STOP"? A calypso with some serious lyrics, song by one of Antigua top calysonian last year Richie Rich. The judge and Cutie Benjamin need to get a copy. "Didn't finish high school, drop out of ABICE, represent Antigua in a competition, was a member at boys training school". All this is a bunch of Crap and you said the court must send a strong message, are you for real? 22 long years. By the way did he get any seperate years for having an unlicense fire arm and ammunition in his possession? I conclude with the same question "HOW CRIME GONE STOP""

New Customs Controller Named

STEVE says: "So let me get this right!! The indian who now get the top job was brought here by the A.L.P.? Guess they (the A.L.P.) did something right :lol: :-*"

Davis Continues Testimony

RAWLSTON POMPEY says: "Clearly, you have been following the trial, because DAVIS was asked a specific question; he dodged it and told the Prosecutor he should ask STANFORD. He was in fact, in a round-about way telling the jury that "...ONLY STANFORD" could answer such question. Every accused person has the "...RIGHT OF SILENCE" (5th Amndt). The maxim is none may "...INCRIMINATE HIMSELF" even if it appears that he is guilty as midnight. Thus, he who asserts "...MUST PROVE.""

Mark Zuckerberg- Savior of America’s Middle Class

Straight Talk says: "The size and complexity of the US economy dwarfs any single IPO. Your clear admiration of Zuckerberg clouds your perception of his impact and also ignores the fact the Zuckerberg was not the founder of FtB, but a man who allegedly stole the idea from the original founders... and then profited greatly."

Davis Continues Testimony

RAWLSTON POMPEY says: "Never thought of any view point as silly, not even yours. Thought all opinions are perfectly legitimate, even when they may run counter to or be perceived as contrary to other viewpoints. Clearly, had you been familiar with criminal trials, you may have known that WARNINGS were not issued before "...SUMMATION," that is, at the END of the Prosecution and Defence cases. You were expected to have understood that in "...paragraph 2" of first commentary. Blame me for wrongly assuming that you knew. For simplicity- WARNINGS are never given during "...EVIDENCE IN CHIEF," nor during "...CROSS EXAMINATION." Not even in "...KANGAROO COURTS" this happen. That would make a mockery of the trial."

Davis Continues Testimony

Down the middle says: "I am not hear to defend Davis, Stanford or anyone who have a hand in this alleged ponzi scheme. However I am don't understand why James Davis is a credable witness when he was the CEO of the company as and Stanford's lawyer said http://www.wkrn.com/story/16584888/testimony-to-begin-in-trial-of-financier-stanford?clienttype=printable Again I am not hear to defend anyone but I believe in rationality than emotionality based on some of the commets. I just want to see the culprits get there just justice to them and the investors get there money back. Xxxxx I am sure has used investors money as his personal "piggy bank," and I would like to know if he paid any of them back? As a government's witness is he entitled to?"

Mark Zuckerberg- Savior of America’s Middle Class

fnpsr says: "I agree with Tenman’s post. Although the estimated price of Facebook’s IPO is around $45, most of us will not be able to get in on the ground floor for some time to come. The reason for this is that the offer will be extended to their best customers and institutional investors. Then later, when they all have their fill and the price is jacked up, then the ordinary investor will be given the opportunity to buy. Most of us small investors buy on greed/emotion and sell on fear. Thus, we buy high and sell low. “Let’s fix the little things before we attempt to fix the big things.”"
