Seagliders and Hawaiian ferries

edit

https://beatofhawaii.com/following-failed-ferries-hawaiian-air-mokulele-both-plan-100-seat-electric-seaglider/ - Not that this can be cited (no author, so probably non-reliable source) but it points to at least two very interesting potential articles - the REGENT seagliders (touched on in the ground-effect vehicle article), and the history of Hawaiian ferries.

Autocart

Al Jervinsky, "President of AutoCart Logistics and Licensing, LLC" (see [http://www.autotram.biz/contact.htm Autotram website, accessed June 16, 2007), was, in a December 2004 press release, "Systems Sales Manager, FKI Logistex Automation Division". But his Ohio address (10 Ridgecreek Trail) is the same in both, and Google Maps shows that it's a residential address, something pretty odd for a press release.

First known press release, December 2004; lists only one type - "Supercenter", opening December 2006

[http://www.autocart.biz/press.php?rec=article_smn_05 DEVELOPERS PLANNING DRIVE-IN SUPERCENTERS; AutoCart, By Jon Springer SuperMarket News]

Nebraska Beef

edit
Nebraska Beef, one of the nation's largest meatpackers ...
The force behind Nebraska Beef is Nebraska businessman William Hughes. Hughes was a top executive at the now-defunct BeefAmerica.
Nebraska Beef has a contentious history with the USDA. Over the past six years, federal meat inspectors have repeatedly written it up for sanitation violations, and the company has fought back in court ... From September 2002 to February 2003, USDA shut down the plant three times for problems such as feces on carcasses, water dripping off pipes onto meat, paint peeling onto equipment and plugged-up meat wash sinks, according to agency records. In August 2006, federal meat inspectors threatened to suspend operations at the packing house for not following requirements for controlling E. coli. The company corrected the problem a week later, USDA records show.
In 206, Minnesota health officials blamed Nebraska Beef for sickening 17 people who ate meatballs at a church potluck in rural Minnesota. Several victims filed lawsuits against Nebraska Beef, including the family of a woman who died. The company last fall sued the church, arguing that the volunteer cooks did not cook the meatballs properly.
From 1998 to 2008, the company has had 47 workplace safety violations and paid more than $100,000 in fines, Occupational Safety and Health Administration records show.
In 2002, a National Labor Relations Board official voided a 2001 vote against unionizing Nebraska Beef employees. The NLRB official found that management interrogated workers about their union sympathies and threatened to fire, terminate benefits for or reassign employees who voted to unionize.

edit

Unfortunately, there already is a David Carney article, about a different person.

Really good building blocks:

  • From that Texas Observer article: "'Having Dave helps me sleep at night,' Dole told Time magazine. The story, titled 'Dole’s Kitchen Magician,' was an ode to Carney. He had become well known in consulting circles for designing creative campaign strategies. Time reporter Michael Kramer wrote, 'At 36, Carney is already a legend among Republican operatives.'"

Rodney Strong, Rodney Strong Vineyards

edit

There is already an article about Windsor Vineyards, but that is not - despite a lot of confusion, including a NYT obit - the same as Rodney Strong Vineyards. WV is a made-to-order, direct-to-consumer vineyard; RSV is a normal brand (distributors, restaurants). They have separate tasting rooms as of 9/2012 (WV is off the Healdsburg town square, RSV is on Old Redwood Highway)

A lot of the confusion is that the purchase by Tom Klein in 1989 was of both enterprises, which were co-located. It certainly doesn't help the online RSV history (http://www.rodneystrong.com/our-story/history ) makes no mention of WV.

Anyway, sources to improve the existing WV article, create a RSV article, and (possibly) a separate RS article:

NOTE: next step is to rearrange chronologically, including creating full cites:

[looks like WV relocated in 2007 from what was 9600 Bell Road - a portion of which, including this address, is now Market Street], facing the town green, and is now in the airport industrial park] (the article mentions plans for retail for the town green building, which fell through).

(Side note: lots of stuff about the town of Windsor, such as this, show up when searching for WV: http://nl.newsbank.com/nl-search/we/Archives?p_product=SA&p_theme=sa&p_action=search&p_maxdocs=200&p_topdoc=1&p_text_direct-0=0EAFEE66CB4C6881&p_field_direct-0=document_id&p_perpage=10&p_sort=YMD_date:D&s_trackval=GooglePM )

Howard Stutz (journalist)

edit
  • Bio at The Nevada Independent (https://thenevadaindependent.com/author/howard-stutz )- "Howard Stutz has spent nearly four decades in Las Vegas as an award-winning journalist. He currently serves as the executive editor of CDC Gaming Reports. During his time with the Las Vegas Review-Journal, Howard covered the gaming industry from a local, statewide, national and international perspective. Howard’s vast experience following gaming gives him a knowledge of the industry’s history and a unique insight and perspective into Nevada and national gaming issues. Howard was part of the Review-Journal team that uncovered the Adelson family as the secret buyers of the newspaper that earned the journalists several ethics awards in 2015, including the James Foley Medill Medal for Courage in Journalism from Northwestern University and the Ancil Payne Award for Ethics in Journalism from the University of Oregon. Howard has earned several awards from the Nevada State Press Association for Best Local Column for his coverage of gaming"

Eric Hovde (currently a redirect to 2012 United States Senate election in Wisconsin

edit

"In Wisconsin, Hovde, a businessman with experience in property development and banking, is seriously considering taking on incumbent Democratic Sen. Tammy Baldwin, according to two sources familiar with his plans who were not authorized to publicly discuss them. He could inject an eight-figure sum into his bid against Baldwin, who raised some $33 million for her 2018 reelection.

Hovde, who made a failed Senate bid in 2012, also decided against a governor bid in 2022. This time he seems more likely to enter the fray. He has spoken with NRSC officials and has begun engaging potential staff." https://www.politico.com/news/2023/03/22/national-republicans-senate-candidates-rich-00088199
