A shortage of truck drivers and a crumbling transportation infrastructure have contributed to a 14% increase in freight costs for U.S. consumer packaged goods companies since 2012, according to a report by the GMA and The Boston Consulting Group. A survey of more than 40 companies, including Procter & Gamble and Bumble Bee Seafoods, revealed that transportation issues were a top concern. Companies have responded by relocating manufacturing and warehouse facilities and by nurturing relationships with transportation companies, according to BCG principal Elfrun von Koeller.
Des Moines, Iowa, might be the first market to test a standalone grocery store that is a cross between "an ATM and a very large vending machine," using a robotic system called Oasis24Seven, reports Ashlee Kieler of Consumerist. Grocery stores are increasing using technology to monitor shopping as well as tackle in-store theft.
Clean labels that highlight short lists of simple and natural ingredients have become an industry standard, according to Innova Market Insights. The research firm found that use of "clean label ingredients" such as natural sweeteners increased in 2014. Fewer products are using the term "natural" on packaging, which can be confusing to consumers since it is not regulated in the U.S.
Companies are increasingly using neuroscience methods, such as facial coding, skin conductivity and bias removal, to determine how to attract consumers to their products. "People are not governed by the rational side of their brains so the majority of purchase decisions are made irrationally," said Itiel Dror, a Harvard-trained neuroscientist hired by Brand Opus to test a new logo for McCain Foods.
Brazilian meatpacker JBS' U.S. subsidiary Swift Pork has agreed to buy Cargill's U.S. pork business for $1.45 billion, in what JBS President Martin Dooley called a "strategic investment" in the company's global expansion. The deal includes processing plants, feed mills and hog farms in six states.
As part of its "For Healthy Bodies" campaign promoting its bottled water, PepsiCo's Aquafina is sponsoring Daybreaker events in New York City that attract health-minded people who gather early in the morning to engage in activities such as yoga and dancing.
Temple Turmeric is expanding its product portfolio to appeal to mainstream consumers with its new line of Super Lights beverages that focus on delivering refreshment with a low calorie and sugar content.
Iced tea sales continue to grow as consumers turn to the category to satisfy the need for healthier beverages, and established brands such as Arizona are facing increased competition from an influx of new premium brands. The company is fighting to maintain the low price of its canned ready-to-drink teas on which its network of loyal customers is built while making a play for the premium market with new products such as its Oak teas brewed with oak chips.
Mars Ireland plans to move its headquarters to the sixth floor of the Chase Building in the Sandyford suburb of Dublin. The 15-year lease of 13,466 square feet includes a break option at the end of the seventh year and will reportedly cost approximately $25 per square foot.
General Mills will launch a gluten-free version of its Lucky Charms cereal this summer as part of a $712 million investment to boost declining cereal sales that also includes five gluten-free Cheerios styles, the company announced Wednesday. The cereal maker will use a mechanical filter to remove the allergenic wheat, rye and barley grains from the naturally gluten-free oats in its products.

ANAHEIM, Calif. Mike Trout made his mark in the big leagues as a leadoff hitter, but starting Thursday night hes the No. 2 batter in the Angels order. Angels manager Mike Scioscia put third baseman Alberto Callaspo in the leadoff spot in Thursdays series finale against the Oakland As, followed by Trout, Albert Pujols and Josh Hamilton. The move gives the slumping Angels a powerful heart of the order, one Scioscia hopes will ignite a team that began the night hitting .120 (9 for 75) with runners in scoring position. Trout stole 49 bases last season, but the Angels want to give him more opportunites to hit with runners on base and also protect him in the order with Pujols and Hamilton hitting behind him. Trout began the night hitting .278 and was still looking for his first home run. Its really just a common-sense move, Scioscia said. We talked about it in the winter, about Mike being a guy you need to set the table for as well as a guy thats going to bring a lot of table-settin...

PHOTOS: GoldenFest II celebrates all things golden retriever at Bonita Springs event
BONITA SPRINGS - There were dogs, dogs and more dogs - many of a golden hue - at GoldenFest II, a celebration of all things golden retriever on Saturday.
The event, sponsored by Golden Retriever Rescue of Southwest Florida and held at Ruff'n It Doggy Daycare in Bonita Springs, featured pet vendors, exhibits, raffles, prizes, demos, Canine Good Citizen testing, pet photos, food, drink and lots of fun.
Based in Lee and Collier counties, the all-volunteer Golden Retriever Rescue of Southwest Florida also serves Charlotte, Sarasota, Glades, Desoto and Hendry counties.
The organization takes in homeless golden retrievers from shelters and from owners who can no longer keep them, and finds them new homes. Many dogs come to the rescue with medical problems, including heartworms, and require veterinary treatment before they can be adopted.

Lunt-Fontanne Theatre
Not yet rated
Time Out says
Mon May 7 2012
Built in 1910, this venue was originally called the Globe, after Shakespeare's famous theater. In 1958, it was renamed for the famous acting couple of Alfred Lunt and Lynne Fontanne. The 1,505-seat space has housed productions like the Disney properties The Little Mermaid and Beauty and the Beast. Buyer beware: The orchestra sightlines at the Lunt-Fontanne can be spotty, especially if you're sitting behind a particularly tall person.

In the 1840s, Benjamin Disraeli, still a long way from being prime minister, wanted to wake people up to the plight of the British working class. The alarm he sounded wasn't delivered in a speech, a pamphlet, or an article -- but in a novel, Sybil, published in 1845. Ever since I read Sybil when I was at Cambridge, I've loved thinkers and writers who use storytelling to reach people and get us to act. And so it was that I found myself moderating a panel discussion last week with the director and two cast members of a movie that uses storytelling to wake us up to one of the biggest problems of our modern age: the effect that being "connected" to technology 24/7 is having on our ability to connect with our lives, ourselves, and the people we love. Like so many people, this is something I struggle with on a regular basis. That's why Disconnect struck a nerve.
As someone who has focused her career on how we negotiate our work and family lives, I wonder if information and communications technology encourages us to be more human. In fact, it appears that it's a mixed blessing with the potential to negatively impact our ability to have meaningful lives and meaningful work.

Post Content
Alex Sherman
Clean Energy Fellow Department of Energy Resources
Preserving historic buildings is important work, but it has often met notable obstacles from an energy efficiency standpoint. Massachusetts happens to have a disproportionate number of historic buildings, which presents an issue for us at DOER: how can we make energy efficiency the standard statewide when so many buildings have to maintain their cultural and aesthetic history?
Architectural Heritage Foundation, a Boston-based non-profit that combines historic preservation and business economic development, partnered with two other regional organizations to propose a dynamic solution to this problem. They were awarded $625,000 from DOER's federal stimulus-funded High Performance Buildings Grant program to implement Deep Energy Retrofits on three unique historic buildings, reducing their energy use by 50% and demonstrating a way for other historic buildings to cut their energy use.
I swung through Ipswich to see how the Architectural Heritage Foundation's work on the Old House at Appleton Farms was going a few weeks ago, and it was an incredible thing to see. The building, which was rotting and literally falling over before work began, is now shaping up to be a beautiful new home for The Trustees of Reservation's (TTOR) Center for Agriculture and the Environment. In addition to bringing the house up to code, the contractor is installing insulation on the outside, and blowing cellulose into the walls on the inside—doubling the insulating value of the walls and roof and eliminating any 'bridges' where the cold can get in. They've also repaired many windows and replaced irreparable ones with high efficiency models, balancing the need to be historically authentic and energy efficient. The house will be heated by a biomass boiler, and the hot water will come from solar heaters on the roof—eliminating most demand for fossil fuels.
Meanwhile, in Ashfield, the Trustees are busy on another old farmhouse on the Bullitt reservation. Bullitt, like Appleton, was also falling apart. But after getting similar treatment to Appleton Farms, the house is now so well insulated that when I visited (a chilly 42 degree November day), the entire house was comfortably warm—heated by the body heat of the four folks working on the house. There's also an energy recovery ventilator in the basement to ensure proper air circulation without losing heat to the outside. The future occupants of the house, the Hilltown Land Trust and the Highland Communities Initiative, will rarely have to turn on the heat. When the Trustees install solar panels on a nearby barn next year, this house will use next to no electricity from the electric grid, and no fossil fuels – making it quite possibly the first zero net energy historic building in Massachusetts!
The Appleton and Bullitt projects will be some of the oldest energy efficient historical buildings in New England. In the end, however, the real value of these projects will be the example they set. We'll keep you updated on the Appleton and Bullitt projects and a third project – the Lyman Estate in Waltham – when it begins. More information on the projects is available on TTOR's website.

The conversion took just five minutes and, once complete, the crowd cheered as the new LED light was switched on for the first time – a symbolic act that highlighted the two phased Department of Conservation and Recreation project to retrofit approximately 4,500 outdoor lighting fixtures.

Forecasts vary, but there is consensus on this downward trend for at least the first half of 2008. [David Seiders] is calling for a 20% drop in total housing starts from 2007's already depressed levels, themselves a 25% drop from 2006 he notes. Given the 1.80 million starts in 2006, that means 2007 saw just 1.35 million starts, and 2008 will see just 1.09 million. Others, like the National Association of Realtors (NAR) and Moody's Economy concur, while some, like Widman's Market Watch in Vancouver are more optimistic, calling for only a 9% drop to 1.225 million. Forecasters at RISI are calling for 1.2 million starts in 08."We think the market will bottom in the third quarter, and improve through 09," predicts Paul Jannke, RISI's senior vice president of wood and timber information. "Having said that, we think 09-10 will still be weak by historic standards, and are forecasting 1.2 million units in 08, and 1.62 in 09."Pulp & Paper: A recent study from the US-based AF&.PA shows that while both global and US pulp wood demand and harvesting continues to grow at a steady rate, there are concerns. Wood for Paper: Fiber Sourcing in the Glob' al Pulp & Paper Industry is a 100-page study that among other things traces the growing demand and harvesting of roundwood from 1993 to 2004, despite marked increases in recycled paper use. Global wood fibre consumption for pulp & paper increased 18%, or a whopping 111 million cubic metres from 1993 to 2004- While consumption fell 2% in the US, it actually grew by 9% in Canada, not bad at all given doomsday scenarios portrayed by analysts back in the last recession (1990-91). Still, it's no surprise that the biggest growth areas for wood pulp consumption were China (304%), Chile (122%), and Indonesia (154%), and that the increased demand was met mostly by plantation wood. Still, none of this points to a collapse of Canadian markets for sawmill residues or pulpwood, and in the meantime, we always have...

The Knicks' Draft Sucked
At the risk of putting my health in harm's way, I'm going to discuss my beloved New York Knicks' draft.
My Knicks selected Latvian big man Kristaps Porzingis with the fourth overall pick in the 2015 NBA draft. This was when Duke's Justise Winslow, China's Emmanuel Mudiay, Kentucky's Willie Cauley-Stein and Croatia's Mario Hezonja were still on the board.
You read that right. We drafted some stiff out of a remote European country when more talented prospects were available.
I wish I could say how surprised and appalled I was at the draft pick. I wish I could be shocked at how basketball president Phil Jackson could have gotten that pick wrong. However, that would mean I would have to forget decades of futility in the draft.
Here's a bit of trivia for y'all. Who was the last Knicks first-round pick that has been selected for at least one All-Star Game and All-NBA Team? You guessed it: Patrick Ewing, class of 1985.
I was in middle school in 1985. My Knicks had not had a meaningful player on that level in 30 friggin years! UGH!
Yet in spite of the horrendous drafting of years' past (Frederic Weis, anyone?), I had a modicum of hope. Sure, we had the fourth pick in the draft, but at least there was a bevy of players that could have helped us in the draft.
Those damn Lakers drafting D'Angelo Russell? Sure that hurt, but at least there were Winslow, Mudiay and Hezonja's swag around that would have salvaged our draft.
Until I heard the following announcement…
"With the fourth pick of the 2015 NBA Draft, the New York Knicks select Kristaps Porzingis from Latavia."
Oh hell no. HELL NO.
My head fell straight to my desk. Lots of yelled obscenities followed. My beloved Knicks have fucked me yet again.
And yes, I know that Jackson and Co. managed to trade for Notre Dame baller Jerian Grant after said debacle. That still didn't make up for that horrific draft pick.
Sure, that Porzingis could turn out to be a good player. Hell, based on his potential he could become a star in this league.
I doubt it, simply because he has the look of yet another European stiff that even my five-year-old son could post up and snag rebounds against.
As you can see, life is hard as a Knicks fan. Why I allow those clowns to torment me and shave years off of my already short life expectancy is anyone's guess.
Pray for me y'all…
Happy Father's Day!
We at The Klown Times want to wish all the dads out there a Happy Father's Day. Shouts out go to the men who bust their asses in taking care of, disciplining and raising their kids – whether it be husbands, divorcees or baby daddies.
Much respect…
Yankees Need to Honor A-Rod's Achievements
Before I embark on this rant, let me state the following.
While I am a lifelong fan of the New York Yankees, I am not a fan of Alex Rodriguez. In fact, I cannot stand the man.
I do not like the fact that A-Rod had been so disingenuous with the way he conducted himself on and off the field over the last few seasons, he had become more of an "A-Fraud". And with the cat out of the bag on his apparent use of steroids, he has become "A-Roid" to me, not to mention a liar for denying such charges for such a long period of time.
I'll also go a step further and express how incensed I was that the Yankees allowed A-Rod back. Why my Yankees didn't buy his roided ass out and move on was a mystery to me, even more so when they bid against themselves in re-signing A-Rod to that albatross of a deal.
Having said all of that, the Yankees should do the right thing and honor A-Rod's achievements. The team wrote clauses in his contract calling for such milestones to be rewarded by handsome bonuses.
And being a disgraced steroid cheat aside, performance enhancers does not help a player put a bat on the ball at a high level.
After all, 668 home runs is… well, 668 home runs. And only 29 players in Major League Baseball history has at least 3,000 hits. Those are achievements the Yankees have to honor since A-Rod's milestones were met while wearing a Yankee uniform.
I know New York loathes A-Rod and would really prefer that he would go the hell away, but this was what the Yankees signed up for when they signed A-Rod to that ridiculous contract extension in the first place.
As for me, I feel like such a profound hypocrite while pulling for this man to help my Yankees stay in the AL East pennant chase with the Tampa Bay Rays. What's even worse for me to stomach is that he is the main reason why my Yankees have been doing surprisingly well this season.
God, I feel so dirty…
LeBron Has Nothing to Be Ashamed of
The Cleveland Cavaliers fell to the new world champion Golden State Warriors in six games last night. Check that, LeBron James fell to the new world champion Golden State Warriors in six games.
I know LeBron is now 2-4 in the NBA Finals. I know that his record alone would pale in comparison to the all-time greats. And I also know that one of those Finals he wet the bed in the worst way (vs. Dallas).
And while LeBron is sub-.500 in NBA Finals, I am not going to clown "The King". In fact, I think his performance in the 2015 NBA Finals enhanced his legacy.
Think about it for a minute.
His Cavs already went into the Finals two men down: a great offensive player in Kevin Love and a defensive stalwart in Anderson Varejao. And while the Cavs played well in Game 1, star point guard Kyrie Irving fractured his knee cap in overtime and would miss the rest of the series.
As soon as Irving went down, everyone (including yours' truly) thought that the Warriors would sweep them. After all, how in the world would a one-man band win a game against the deep, young and powerful Warriors?
Well, not only did the short-handed Cavs win won game, they pushed the Warriors to six hard-fought games. Ya know how they did that?
LeBron James.
If we took LeBron off of that team, it would be a lottery team capable of being owned by my sorry-ass New York Knicks. Hell I could form a crew of four "all-DNP" NBA bench players and be competitive against that bunch.
Iman Shumpert, JR Smith, Timofey Mozgov and the Johnny-come-lately Matthew Dellavedova pushing the likes of regular season MVP Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Finals MVP Andre Iguodala (Curry should have won it), and Draymond Green? Really?
That's a testament to LeBron and his leadership. He got every last ounce of grit and determination from that rag-tag bunch.
Unfortunately, he eventfully wore himself out and conceded the chip to Curry and his crew.
LeBron is feeling down in the dumps for not delivering the chip for NE Ohio. He was despondent as hell during the post-game press conference.
But he has nothing to be ashamed of. His performance in the Finals has created a new-found respect with me and many sports fans.
Man's game LeBron. Much respect.
The Double-Standard that Is Hope Solo
A decorated athlete was arrested on two counts of domestic violence on June 21, 2014.
While police was trying to book her, said athlete was reportedly so combative the police had to force her to the ground. She then yelled, "You're such a b—-. You're scared of me because you know that if the handcuffs were off, I'd kick your ass."
(You can read more on the police report here)
Substitute the "she" pronouns with "he". How much do you want to bet that there would be an absolute outcry for a suspension? I would be shocked that "he" would not be suspended by whichever sports league he plays in.
But the offender is not only a popular female athlete, she starts in goalie for the US Women's National Team and is playing in the 2015 World Cup.
So is it shocking to see Hope Solo representing her country and not suspended from the World Cup? Naw, not at all. Solo is the best goalie in the world and we need her to bring the World Cup home.
And what's worse is that US Soccer, the governing body of the men's and women's team, didn't conduct much of an investigation. For some reason it didn't interview with the victims: her half-sister and nephew.
Again, the women's soccer team need Solo to bring home the World Cup – even if it meant its governing body turning a blind eye to her transgressions.
But we see the Ray McDonalds, Ray Rices, and Greg Hardys of the world dealt serious consequences for similar actions pertaining to domestic violence – as they should. It's great seeing professional sports leagues FINALLY taking this issue seriously.
It's even better seeing the media take those offending athletes to task. Hell the media alone (namely TMZ) shamed NFL commissioner/punk ass Roger Goodevil into getting the Rice discipline right.
It just makes US Soccer's "investigation" into Solo's domestic violence arrest/non-punishment and the lack of outrage from the media and fans all the more shameful.
I sometimes think that if the offender was a "he" instead of a rather attractive "she" things would be different.
Kind of like teachers sexing middle and high school students. If the offenders were male, they'd be raked over the coals and publicly shamed (as they should). The female offenders generally tend to not be discussed or even punished as much.
In short, this is the mother of all double-standards.
Why Serena Is Not Celebrated More
Congrats to Serena Williams on winning her 20th Grand Slam title. Congrats goes to her on winning her third French Open title.
Most of all, congrats goes to Williams on moving into second all-time for most Grand Slam ladies' singles titles in the Open Era.
And that's the most you'll hear of it.
After Saturday's French Open women's final, most of the talk in the sports world has been centered around American Pharoah (sic) becoming the first horse since 1978 to win the Triple Crown after winning the Belmont Stakes and the heroic efforts of LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers sans Kyrie Irving AND Kevin Love – and rightfully so. Hell not many folks were even talking about the men's French Open final.
So of course the obvious question is the following: why is Serena not getting the love that she deserves?
Not to be over-complicated, but it's a question that yields many answers.
First of all, tennis is not nearly as popular in this country as much as it used to.
Anyone remember the golden years of the 1980s and 90s? Evan Lendl, Boris Becker, John McEnroe, Bjorn Borg, Pete Sampras (who I think is better than the overrated Roger Federer), Andre Agassi, Michael Chang, and Jim Courier? And how about Martina Navratilova, Chris Evert, and Monica Seles on the women's side? That's a who's-who of tennis whose talents we may never see again.
I also think that the lack of American stars has a lot to do with, especially on the men's side. I mean if we are honest about it, all we knew of and cheered wildly for was Andy Roddick.
Secondly, we all take Serena for granted.
After all, she is SUPPOSED to win. What active player can consistently take out Serena?
Maria Sharapova? She is only 2-16 lifetime against Serena.
Big sister Venus? WAAAAY past her prime, and even Serena dominates her as of late.
Li Na and Sloane Stephens? Please.
And that leads to the third reason: the field is not deep. At least Serena once had to deal with the likes of big sis Venus, Martina Hingis, Lindsey Davenport, and Justine Henin while she was ascending into her prime.
Who is there now? The combined total of Grand Slam winners from active players is 21. Again, Serena alone has 20. The most remarkable thing about that is Serena will be 34 years old in September and is showing no signs of slowing down.
Is it fair to hold the lack of depth in women's tennis over Serena's head? Hell no, but it is what it is.
A third reason is people tend to hate on her attitude, or what they perceive as an attitude problem.
I remember so many people would knock her and Venus for not being humble enough. "Show more class when winning!" people would yell at their TV screens whenever Serena would bag another win.
Memo to delusional sports fans: do you REALLY think most superstar athletes are humble? Do y'all think Michael Jordan was humble? How about Agassi and Sampras? And don't even think about Kobe Bryant.
That's life. Get over it.
The last reason is a sensitive one, and may only have to do with a scintilla of the issue, not one that many people would feel comfortable with: Serena is not a blond-haired white woman.
Don't believe me?
Look at how many endorsement opportunities Sharapova has. Now Sharapova is a beautiful (and quite lovely) statuesque blond Russian with a marketable personality. However, she's won only five Grand Slam titles, 15 less than Serena.
And what is my biggest trump card of all, look at the number of endorsement opportunities Anna Kournikova has (or at least had). Her net worth was once upwards of $50 million!
As with Sharapova, Kournikova is a very beautiful woman. Hell bump that, the woman was fine as hell. But you know what, Kournikova did not win as many Grand Slam singles titles as Serena. In fact, she didn't win ANY such titles.
It's unfortunate thing to say or even postulate, but could you imagine Serena as a blond-haired white woman (and American) winning Grand Slam singles titles year after year in this day and age? There would be so many tribute sites to her on the web, the damn internet would stay broke. Serena would be on so many one-handed magazine (dudes know what I am talking about) covers, she'd make EVERY men's magazine some money.
The sports world may not hype Serena as much as she deserves, and that's a damn shame. And the day she walks away from tennis will be the day sports fans will miss her immensely.
A Quick 2015 NBA Playoff Finals Preview
This is going to be a weird NBA Finals of sorts to me.
The 2015 Finals are the first where I truly do not have a rooting interest – a dog in the fight, if you will. Both the Cleveland Cavaliers and Golden State Warriors are great teams with great guys. They also provide the media and fans with great storylines.
First of all, who doesn't like the story of LeBron James leading his "hometown" Cavs back to the NBA Finals after winning a couple of rings in Miami? Sure no one outside of Miami liked the way he left Cleveland, but if LeBron delivers the city of Cleveland its first championship in 51 years, he would be considered a god.
And who doesn't love Stephen Curry? He is about to be the new face of the NBA, with his State Farm commercials to boot (with the assist from Chris Paul, pun intended). The fact he comes from a small school that made one of the greatest Cinderella runs in NCAA Tournament history, not to mention being the son of a former NBA player (Dell Curry).
It's a shame that a team has to lose this Finals, but at least one of these teams has a great chance of making it back next season. But that said…
Cleveland has been on a roll in the playoffs, losing only two games to this point (12-2 postseason record). LeBron is arguably playing his best basketball in recent memory, leading a team mostly comprised of castoffs to the brink of a championship. Star point guard Kyrie Irving's gimpy knee and Kevin Love being sideline by a shoulder injury make LeBron's exploits much more impressive.
The Cavs role players have been stellar. Tristan Thompson has been a monster on the boards. He has also been a cleanup man along with Timofey Mozgov and has been an excellent rim protector.
Speaking of Mozgov, how about my Knicks castoffs? Collectively the trade that brought in Mozgov, Iman Shumpert,and the enigmatic J.R. Smith saved the Cavs season.
And last but not least, Matthew Dellavedova is one of the scrappiest (and to some dirtiest) player I have seen in quite some time.
Golden State counters Cleveland's grit with firepower and the ability to run any team out of the gym. Curry and Klay Thompson alone could easily combine for 60 points on any given night. Plus there is that Draymond Green cat who not only is a terror on the boards, but he is a walking double-double and could easily pour in 20+ points when called upon.
The Warriors are also a lot deeper than the Cavs. Andre Iguodala leads the second unit. You read that right, he COMES OFF THE BENCH. Shaun Livingston, Festus Ezeli, and Leandro Barbosa help keep the Warriors rolling on offense.
Even though Golden State is the better team (and better coached) on paper, I do not think LeBron is going to be denied.
There is something special going on with this Cavs team. Their role players are playing out of their minds. Hell, watching Smith staying within himself and becoming a big contributor to the team is amazing in and of itself. As long as head coach David Blatt lets LeBron coach this team and stays the hell out of his way, the Cavs will shock the world (sort of).

The New York Mets and relief pitcher Brandon Lyon are close to reaching a deal. Lyon, 33, would assume a late inning role in the Mets bullpen. Lyon spent last season with Houston and Toronto finishing with 3.10 ERA and a 1.25 WHIP over 61 innings of work. The Mets have signed right handers Scott Atchison and LaTroy Hawkins this week. The addition of Lyon would seemingly finish their bullpen makeover.

A Toronto police officer who harassed her former boyfriend and his wife while on duty has been demoted and must forfeit 24 days of pay.
Const. Dionne Kent pleaded guilty to charges of insubordination and discreditable conduct in January at a police tribunal for offences that took place between December 2011 and December 2012.
She was found to have used the criminal database available to all police officers more than 100 times for information about her former partner and his family. Kent also sent several harassing messages over Facebook.
At the time, Kent expressed remorse for her actions and in a victim-impact statement told the tribunal she had made efforts to manage her emotions and improve her behaviour.
"I am troubled by the magnitude of the CPIC and Facebook obsession, spanning over the period of a year and the impact it has had on her platoon, the division and our service," hearing officer Supt. Frank Bergen wrote in his decision.
Kent will be demoted from a first-class constable to a second-class constable for a year, when she will be eligible to be promoted again.
The prosecution and Kent's defence counsel made a joint submission to the tribunal for a total of 36 days forfeited pay and no demotion.
