EARL DANIELS, JR., BENJAMIN SEALS, WILLIE STITT, JR., JAMES MCADORY AND KENNETH HAYES, PLAINTIFFS,v.NIAGARA MOHAWK POWER CORPORATION AND THE INTERNATIONAL BROTHERHOOD OF ELECTRICAL WORKERS UNION, AFL-CIO, LOCAL 97, DEFENDANTS.
Plaintiffs commenced this action on September 10, 2004, and thereafter filed an Amended Compliant and a Second Amended Complaint. Plaintiffs are Black males who are, or were, employees of Defendant Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation ("Niagara Mohawk") and members of Defendant International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, AFL-CIO, Local 97 ("IBEW").
In their Second Amended Complaint, Plaintiffs allege that Niagara Mohawk discriminated against them in their employment based on their race and that IBEW declined to pursue their complaints because of their race, all in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended ("Title VII"), 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e et seq. Presently before this Court are IBEW's Motion for Summary Judgment (Docket No. 35) and Niagara Mohawk's Motion for Summary Judgment (Docket No. 35), seeking dismissal of the Second Amended Complaint in its entirety.*fn1 For the following reasons, both IBEW's and Niagara Mohawk's motions are granted.
When Plaintiffs filed their Complaint with the Court Clerk for the United States District Court for the Western District of New York, they attached a Dismissal and Notice of Suit Rights issued to Plaintiff Earl Daniels by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission ("EEOC"). On October 12, 2004, Judge Larimer issued a Decision and Order finding, among other deficiencies, that no Plaintiff other than Daniels had set forth any allegation or evidence indicating that he had filed a charge of discrimination with the EEOC against Defendants and received from that agency a Notice of Suit Rights prior to commencing this action. The Plaintiffs, except for Daniels, were directed to file their EEOC Notices by October 25, 2004. (Docket No. 3.)
Plaintiffs Seals, Stitt, McAdory and Hayes each then filed a charge with the EEOC and immediately requested the issuance of a Notice of Suit Rights. They each filed their Notices by the Court's deadline. (Docket Nos. 5-8.) On March 11, 2005, Plaintiffs filed their Second Amended Complaint with copies of each of their Notices attached. (Docket No. 14.)
Defendants filed their respective motions for summary judgment on June 14, 2006.
Niagara Mohawk argues that each Plaintiff failed to timely file an EEOC charge, no Plaintiff can demonstrate differential treatment based on race, Daniels cannot establish a prima facie case of discrimination, no Plaintiff has identified an actionable adverse employment action, and no Plaintiff satisfied the statutory prerequisites to suit because each of their EEOC charges was pending before the EEOC for less than 180 days. IBEW argues that each Plaintiff failed to timely file an EEOC charge, except for any claim by Daniels relating to conduct occurring between July 11, 2003 and September 18, 2003, and no Plaintiff has established a prima facie claim of discrimination. The motions were taken under advisement without oral argument.
A. Timeliness
Defendants first argue that all or most of the Plaintiffs' allegations are time-barred. To maintain a discrimination action under 42 U.S.C. §2000e-5, a plaintiff must file a timely charge with the EEOC or the equivalent state agency, receive from that agency a right to sue letter, and commence an action within 90 days after receipt of that letter. Van Zant v. KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, 80 F.3d 708, 712 (2d Cir. 1996); Cornwell v. Robinson, 23 F.3d 694, 706 (2d Cir. 1994). In New York state, where state and local agencies have the authority to investigate claims of discrimination, an administrative charge must be filed within 300 days of the alleged unlawful conduct. Forsyth v. Federation Employment and Guidance Serv., 409 F.3d 565, 572 (2d Cir. 2005) (citing 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-5(e)(1)).
The "filing [of] a timely charge of discrimination with the EEOC is not a jurisdictional prerequisite to suit in federal court, but a requirement that, like a statute of limitations, is subject to waiver, estoppel, and equitable tolling." Zipes v. Trans World Airlines, Inc., 455 U.S. 385, 393, 102 S.Ct. 1127, 71 L.Ed. 2d 234 (1982). Nevertheless, a plaintiff bears a heavy burden in establishing that equitable principles should permit the procedural requirements in question to be bypassed. Alston v. City of New York, 03-CV-0086, 2006 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 67882, at *3-4 (E.D.N.Y. Sept. 21, 2006) (where plaintiff failed to file timely administrative charge prior to commencing suit and did not address that failure in opposition to motion, there was no basis to bypass the statutory prerequisite). As the Supreme Court recently reconfirmed with regard to the timely filing requirements, "'strict adherence to the procedural requirements specified by the legislature is the best guarantee of evenhanded administration of the law.'" National R.R. Passenger Corp. v. Morgan, 536 U.S. 101, 108 (2002) (quoting Mohasco Corp. v. Silver, 447 U.S. 807, 826 (1980)).
In calculating the procedural limitation periods, discrete acts of discrimination or retaliation are deemed to have occurred on the date that they happened. Therefore, a party must file an EEOC charge within 300 days after the complained of act or lose the ability to recover for it. Morgan, 536 U.S. at 108. Discrete acts generally are easy to identify and include such things as termination, failure to promote, denial of transfer or refusal to hire. Id. at 114.
1. Earl Daniels, Jr.
Plaintiff Daniels filed an EEOC charge against Niagara Mohawk and IBEW on May 7, 2004. Daniels' charge is timely to the extent he points to discrimination occurring on and after July 12, 2003. (Rooney Affirm. Ex. N.) In his charge, he alleges that, because of his race, Niagara Mohawk passed him over for a promotions or upgrades on numerous occasions, "most recently on or about September 18, 2003," and IBEW denied him proper representation in connection with those incidents. His charge includes a timely allegation as to each Defendant.
2. Benjamin Seals
Defendant Seals filed two EEOC charges on October 12, 2003, one against Niagara Mohawk (Rooney Aff. Ex. H), and one against IBEW (Long Aff. Ex. B). The charges are untimely as to incidents of discrimination occurring prior to December 17, 2003.
Seals alleges that Niagara Mohawk discriminated against him based on his race when it involuntarily transferred him to a different department in September 2003. His charge against IBEW recites the same incident, and alleges that he "repeatedly complained to the union, to no avail."*fn2
There are no timely allegations against Niagara Mohawk. However, Seals' allegation that he repeatedly sought assistance from IBEW in connection with the September 2003 transfer allows for the possibility that at least one such request occurred on or after December 17, 2003. Accordingly, it is appropriate to consider the merits of that allegation.
3. Willie Stitt, Jr.
Plaintiff Stitt filed two EEOC charges on October 8, 2004, one against Niagara Mohawk (Rooney Aff. Ex. K), and the other against IBEW (Long Aff. Ex. C). The charges are untimely as to incidents of discrimination occurring prior to December 13, 2003.
Like Seals, Stitt alleges that, because of his race, he was involuntarily transferred to a different department in September 2003 and that when he complained to IBEW, it declined to file a grievance on his behalf, "instead filing a grievance on behalf of several members." The grievance to which Stitt refers was filed on September 17, 2003, which means the alleged denial of his request for representation preceded that date. (Long Aff. ¶ 25, Ex. G.) Thus, there are no timely allegations made in either charge.
4. James A. McAdory
Plaintiff McAdory filed two EEOC charges on October 21, 2004, one against Niagara Mohawk (Rooney Aff. Ex. E), and the other against IBEW (Long Aff. Ex. A). The charges are untimely as to incidents of discrimination occurring prior to December 26, 2003.
McAdory alleges that Niagara Mohawk wrongfully changed his shift in 2002, suspended him in April 2002, and disciplined him on August 1, 2003 and December 8,*fn3 2003. As for IBEW, McAdory alleges that the union failed to file a grievance on his behalf in connection with the April 2002 suspension. There are no timely allegations made in either charge.
5. Kenneth Hayes
Plaintiff Hayes filed an EEOC charge against Niagara Mohawk dated October 21, 2004. (Rooney Affirm. Ex. B.) Thus, incidents of discrimination occurring before December 26, 2003 are time-barred. In his charge, Hayes alleged that from 1985 through 1999, Niagara Mohawk subjected him and other Black employees to disparate treatment based on race with respect to performance evaluations, job safety, drug testing, compensation and promotions. Hayes he has not worked for Niagara Mohawk since 1999. (Id. Ex. D at 189:19-21; Long Aff. ¶ 42.) All allegations against Niagara Mohawk are time-barred.
Hayes also filed an EEOC charge against IBEW on October 21, 2004. (Long Aff. Ex. D.) In his charge, Hayes alleged that he has been continuously represented by IBEW in his employment at Niagara Mohawk (1985 - 1999) and NRG Dunkirk operations (1999-date of filing), and that IBEW continuously denied him proper union representation because of his race. He specifically complained of IBEW's failure to pursue a grievance in April 1995 and failure to pursue a claim for benefits in April 2004. The Hayes' charge includes a timely allegation against IBEW.
In summary, Daniels' claims against both Defendants are timely as to conduct occurring on or after July 12, 2003, Seals' claims against IBEW for conduct occurring on or after December 17, 2003 are timely, and Hayes' claims against IBEW are timely as to incidents occurring on or after December 26, 2003. Stitt's and McAdory's claims as against both Defendants, and Seals' and Hayes' claims against Niagara Mohawk, are time-barred and must be dismissed.
In opposition to Defendants' motions, Plaintiffs argue that they have alleged a continuing violation. This Court disagrees. As noted above, the kinds of incidents alleged in the Second Amended Complaint-discriminatory transfer, suspension, discipline, promotion, compensation and the like-are discrete acts of discrimination as opposed to a continuing violation and are actionable only to the extent that each occurred within the 300-day time period. Morgan, 536 U.S. at 114. It is well-settled that "multiple incidents of discrimination, even similar ones, that are not the result of a discriminatory policy or mechanism do not amount to a continuing violation." Lambert v. Genesee Hosp., 10 F.3d 46, 53 (2d Cir. 1993) (citations omitted). Simply invoking the term "policy" or "practice" in a charge or complaint does not convert related discrete acts into a single unlawful practice for the purposes of timely filing. Morgan, 536 U.S. at 111. See also, Lightfoot v. Union Carbide Corp., 110 F.3d 898, 907 (2d Cir. 1997) (repeated demotions and failure to adequately compensate not sufficient for continuing violation theory); Gross v. National Broadcasting, Inc., 232 F. Supp. 2d 58, 68 (S.D.N.Y. 2002) ("The holding in Morgan is in accord with Second Circuit law which states that alleged failures to compensate adequately, transfers, job assignments and promotions cannot form the basis for a continuing violation claim."). Thus, even where the charges include a mix of timely and untimely allegations, the continuing violation doctrine simply does not apply to these claims.
B. Exhaustion of Administrative Remedies
Both Defendants urge that all claims should be dismissed due to Plaintiffs' failure to exhaust their administrative remedies. Specifically, the Plaintiffs, except for Daniels, did not file their EEOC charges until after commencing this action, and the Plaintiffs, including Daniels, did not allow the EEOC 180 days to investigate and attempt to conciliate the charges prior to filing suit. See 42 U.S.C. § 200e-5(f)(1).
It has long been recognized that a plaintiff's failure to first present claims to the EEOC and permit it time to conduct a meaningful investigation defeats the purpose of Title VII's statutory notice provision, which is "to encourage settlement of discrimination disputes through conciliation and voluntary compliance." Miller v. Int'l Tel. & Tel. Corp., 755 F.2d 20, 26 (2d Cir. 1985); Burnett v. ESL Fed. Credit Union, 198 F. Supp. 2d 307, 314-15 (W.D.N.Y. 2002).
Nevertheless, Judge Larimer chose not dismiss this action, sua sponte, but permitted the Plaintiffs to maintain their lawsuit while they acquired their Notices of Suit Rights and filed them with the Court. Plaintiffs could not allow their charges to remain pending with the EEOC for 180 days and meet the deadline set forth in the Court's Order. In light of the October 12, 2004 Decision and Order's effective waiver of the requirement for pre-suit exhaustion, Defendants' request that all otherwise timely claims*fn4 be dismissed for failure to exhaust administrative remedies is denied.
C. Summary Judgment Standard
Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 56 provides that summary judgment is warranted where the "pleadings, depositions, answers to interrogatories, and admissions on file, together with the affidavits, if any, show that there is no genuine issue as to any material fact and that the moving party is entitled to judgment as a matter of law." FED. R. CIV. P. 56(c). A "genuine issue" exists "if the evidence is such that a reasonable jury could return a verdict for the non-moving party." Anderson v. Liberty Lobby, Inc., 477 U.S. 242, 248, 106 S.Ct. 2505, 91 L.Ed. 2d 202 (1986). A fact is "material" if it "might affect the outcome of the suit under governing law." Id. "An alleged factual dispute regarding immaterial or minor facts between the parties will not defeat an otherwise properly supported motion for summary judgment." Powell v. National Bd. of Med. Exam'rs, 364 F.3d 79, 84 (2d Cir. 2004) (citation omitted). In deciding a motion for summary judgment, the evidence and the inferences drawn from the evidence must be viewed in the light most favorable to the non-moving party. Weinstock v. Columbia Univ., 224 F.3d 33, 40 (2d Cir. 2000).
The Second Circuit has noted that trial courts should be particularly cautious in deciding whether to grant summary judgment in employment discrimination cases, because the employer's intent is often at issue. Schwapp v. Town of Avon, 118 F.3d 106, 110 (2d Cir. 1997). However, the Supreme Court more recently has "reiterated that trial courts should not 'treat discrimination differently from other ultimate questions of fact.'" Reeves v. Sanderson Plumbing Prods., Inc., 530 U.S. 133, 148, 120 S.Ct. 2097, 147 L.Ed. 2d 105 (2000) (quoting St. Mary's Honor Ctr. v. Hicks, 509 U.S. 502, 524, 113 S.Ct. 2742, 125 L.Ed. 2d 407 (1993)). In other words, summary judgment can be appropriate even in the fact-intensive context of discrimination cases. This is consistent with a principle purpose of the summary judgment rule; "to isolate and dispose of factually unsupported claims." Celotex Corp. v. Catrett, 477 U.S. 317, 323-24, 106 S.Ct. 2548, 91 L.Ed. 2d 265 (1986).
C. The Facially Timely Discrimination Claims
Under Title VII, it is unlawful for an employer to discriminate against an individual in compensation or in terms, conditions or privileges of employment because of that individual's race. 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2(a). In evaluating claims of race discrimination, this Court applies the burden shifting analysis of McDonnell Douglas Corp. v. Green, 411 U.S. 792, 802-804, 93 S.Ct. 1817, 36 L.Ed. 2d 668 (1973) and Texas Dep't of Comt'y Affairs v. Burdine, 450 U.S. 248, 253, 101 S.Ct. 1089, 67 L.Ed. 2d 207 (1981).*fn5 To make out a prima facie case of discrimination, a plaintiff must show that (1) he is a member of a protected class, (2) he is qualified for his position, (3) he suffered an adverse employment action, and (4) the circumstances of the adverse action give rise to an inference of discrimination. Weinstock, 224 F.3d at 42 (citing McDonnell Douglas, 411 U.S. at 802). The burden a plaintiff carries at the prima facie stage of summary judgment is minimal. Fisher v. Vassar College, 114 F.3d 1332, 1340 n.7 (2d Cir. 1997) (en banc), cert. denied, 522 U.S. 1075, 118 S.Ct. 851, 139 L.Ed. 2d 752 (1998). In fact, no evidence of discrimination is required. James v. New York Racing Ass'n, 233 F.3d 149, 153 (2d Cir. 2000).
If a plaintiff meets his initial burden to establish a prima facie case, a rebuttable presumption of discrimination arises and the burden then shifts to the employer to articulate a legitimate, non-discriminatory reason for the challenged employment action. Burdine, 450 U.S. at 254. If the employer succeeds in making its showing, "the presumption of discrimination arising with the establishment of the prima facie case drops from the picture." Weinstock, 224 F.3d at 42 (citing St. Mary's Honor Ctr. v. Hicks, 509 U.S. 502, 510-11, 113 S.Ct. 2742, 125 L.Ed. 2d 407 (1993)).
The burden then shifts back to the plaintiff to produce "evidence that the [employer's] proffered, non-discriminatory reason is a mere pretext for actual discrimination." Weinstock, 224 F.3d at 42. "In short, the question becomes whether the evidence, taken as a whole, supports a sufficient rational inference of discrimination." Id.
However, "evidence contradicting the employer's given reason-without more-does not necessarily give logical support to an inference of discrimination." James, 233 F.3d at 154. Put simply, "[i]t is not enough . . . to disbelieve the employer; the factfinder must [also] believe the plaintiff's explanation of intentional discrimination." Id. at 156 (quoting St. Mary's, 509 U.S. at 519).
Title VII claims against a union, 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2(c), require a different prima facie showing, but are analyzed using the same burden-shifting analysis. To establish a prima facie Title VII claim for a union's breach of its duty of fair representation, a plaintiff must show that (1) the employer violated the collective bargaining agreement with respect to the plaintiff, (2) the union permitted the violation to go unrepaired, thereby breaching the union's duty of fair representation, and (3) there was some indication that the union's actions were motivated by discriminatory animus. Carrion v. Local 32B-32J SEIU, 03 Civ. 1896, 2005 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 4417, at *22-23 (S.D.N.Y. Mar. 21, 2005) (quoting York v. AT&T, 95 F.3d 948, 955-56 (10th Cir. 1996)); see also, Bugg v. Int'l Union of Allied Indus. Workers, Local 507, 674 F.2d 595, 598 n.5 (7th Cir. 1982); Ross v. Communication Workers of Am., Local 1110, 91 Cit. 6367, 1995 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 7959, at *19-20 (S.D.N.Y. June 9, 1995), affd, 100 F.3d 944 (2d Cir. 1996), cert denied, 519 U.S. 835, 117 S.Ct. 108, 136 L.Ed. 2d 61 (1996).
1. Earl Daniels' Claims against Niagara Mohawk and IBEW
From in or about 1985 until 2005, Plaintiff Daniels was employed at Niagara Mohawk in the position of Mechanic B. He became a Mechanic C in 2005. (Lynn Aff. ¶ 23.) He claims he should have received the position of Mechanic C much sooner.
In his deposition, Mr. Daniels stated that when he would ask about "C" openings in the Construction and Maintenance Department, he would be told there were no jobs to bid on, but then "weeks later there is a new guy in the department." (Rooney Affirm. Ex. P at 14:3-12.) Mr. Daniels identified three less qualified Caucasians who were promoted to Mechanic C at times when he was told there were no openings-Dave Sorgi, Carolyn Carey and Pete Martino. (Id. at 17:8-16.)
According to Mr. Daniels, both Sorgi and Carey were promoted on September 9, 2002. (Id. at 17:17-23.) Defendants state that Sorgi had been a Mechanic C since 1985 and was placed in the Construction and Maintenance Department in December 2000, pursuant to a security provision in the collective bargaining agreement, when the plant at which he previously worked was sold. (Lynn Aff. ¶¶ 24-25; Long Aff. ¶¶ 11-12.) As for Carey, Defendants attest that she was awarded a seasonal Mechanic C position in the Construction and Maintenance Department in 2000 and that, as a result of collective bargaining in 2001, that position was converted from a seasonal to full-time title. (Lynn Aff. ¶¶ 26-27; Long Aff. ¶¶ 13-14.)
Mr. Daniels has not provided any information relative to the timing of Martino's promotion. Defendants attest that prior to being placed in a Mechanic C position in the Construction and Maintenance Department, Martino worked as a Cable Splicer C, which is a higher-rated position under the collective bargaining agreement. (Lynn Aff. ¶ 28; Long Aff. ¶ 15.) However, after Martino engaged in a safety-related violation, Niagara Mohawk took disciplinary action against him. (Id.) As a result of a settlement with IBEW over the discipline, Martino was demoted to the position of Mechanic C in February 2000. (Id. at 29; Long Aff. ¶ 15.) Niagara Mohawk argues that it had legitimate business reasons for each of its decisions, and IBEW argues that because Niagara Mohawk's placements did not violate the collective bargaining agreement, it had a legitimate reason for declining to pursue grievances on Mr. Daniels' behalf.
As noted above, Mr. Daniels' claims are timely only to the extent they relate to acts of discrimination occurring on and after July 12, 2003. Although he alleged in his EEOC charge and the Second Amended Complaint that he was discriminatorily denied a promotion on or about September 18, 2003, his sworn testimony differs and he has not identified any discrimination occurring after September 9, 2002. Accepting the date Mr. Daniels gave in his deposition, which is later than all dates identified by Defendants, his claims based on the placements of Sorgi, Carey and Martino are untimely.
Even were Mr. Daniels' claim timely, Defendants have articulated legitimate, non-discriminatory reasons for their actions which Daniels has not attempted to refute in his response. Accordingly, summary judgment is warranted with respect to Mr. Daniels' claims against both Niagara Mohawk and IBEW.
2. Seals' Claim against IBEW
According to Mr. Seals, his transfer from the Construction and Maintenance Department to the Cable Construction Department from September 2003 to August 2004 was discriminatory and IBEW refused to pursue the matter, despite his repeated requests. As already noted above, Mr. Seals has made no attempt to identify the dates on which he purports to have requested assistance from his union. Reading the Second Amended Complaint and all submissions in a light most favorable to Mr. Seals, this Court will assume that at least one such overture occurred on or after December 17, 2003.
IBEW attests that Niagara Mohawk transferred six employees, including Mr. Seals and Mr. Stitt, from Construction and Maintenance to the Cable Department in September 2003. (Long Aff. ¶¶ 22-24.) IBEW filed a grievance in connection with the transfer on September 17, 2003, stating that it was done "without a Good Faith meeting and without regards to the language in the agreement." (Id. Ex. G.) Specifically, the IBEW objected to the transfers on the ground that employees were not asked by seniority. (Id.) Mr. Seals concurred at his deposition that assignments to the Cable Department should have been made by seniority. (Rooney Aff. Ex. J at 36:11-37:12.) Mr. Seals, a Chief Mechanic, was senior to one employee in his classification, also African-American, who was not transferred.*fn6 (Long Aff. ¶ 24; Rooney Aff. Ex. J at 37:6-12.)
IBEW processed the grievance through the Second Step. (Long Aff. Ex. G.) In August 2004, Niagara Mohawk reversed the transfers and all employees were returned to the Construction and Maintenance Department. (Id. ¶ 26; Lynn Aff. ¶ 21.) After IBEW determined that no employee had suffered a reduction in labor grade during the transfer period, it withdrew the grievance without prejudice in March 2006. (Long Aff. ¶ 27.)
On the record presented, Mr. Seals has failed to state a prima facie case against IBEW because it is undisputed that IBEW immediately filed a grievance on behalf of Seals and all other effected employees on September 17, 2006, and that it pursued the grievance until all employees were transferred back to their original department. In short, Mr. Seals cannot show that IBEW permitted the employer's violation of the collective bargaining agreement to go unrepaired.
Beyond that, Mr. Seals has not come forward with any direct or circumstantial evidence of discriminatory animus on the part of IBEW. It is doubtful that he could do so in any event. As the second most junior employee in his classification, Mr. Seals likely would have been transferred had the transfers been carried out by seniority. At least in part due to the efforts of IBEW, all transfers were reversed.
Because he has failed to establish a prima facie case of discrimination by IBEW, summary judgment is granted as to Mr. Seals claim. For the same reasons, had Mr. Stitt's claim against IBEW been timely, he too would have been unable to establish a prima facie case.
3. Hayes' Claim against IBEW
The only timely claim advanced by Mr. Hayes is his allegation that, in April 2004, IBEW refused to pursue disability benefits to which he was entitled. (Long Aff. Ex. D.) Mr. Hayes is employed by NRG, not Niagara Mohawk. (Lynn Aff. ¶ 5.)
While on disability leave from NRG, Mr. Hayes exhausted his disability benefits. However, he had accrued vacation time. Although NRG had allowed Mr. Hayes to utilize vacation time in the past to extend a disability period, it paid out Mr. Hayes' vacation in a lump sum and placed him on disability retirement. (Long Aff. ¶ 46.) IBEW filed a grievance protesting the company's arbitrary decision to "pay[ ] off" grievant's vacation after short term disability. (Long Aff. Ex. L.) IBEW filed a second grievance challenging the company's decision to place Mr. Hayes on disability pension and its failure to return him to work. (Id. Ex. M.) Mr. Hayes was returned to work on June 17, 2004. (Id. ¶ 46.) Neither of the grievances have been withdrawn and they are pending in the step and arbitration process. (Id.)
In addition to the evidence specific to Mr. Hayes' 2004 disability, IBEW has also come forward with competent evidence showing that it pursued a disability related grievance to arbitration on Mr. Hayes' behalf in 2000 (Id. ¶ 44, Ex. K), and filed a grievance, in March 2002, over discipline issued to Mr. Hayes which is still pending in the grievance and arbitration process (Id. ¶ 45).
Mr. Hayes has not come forward with any contradictory evidence and, in light of the record here, he is unable to demonstrate a prima facie case of discrimination by IBEW. He is unable to show that IBEW is breaching its duty of representation where it is undisputed that IBEW presently is pursuing three grievances on his behalf. Moreover, Mr. Hayes has not attempted to demonstrate that IBEW took any action with respect to him that was based on racial animonsity.
For the foregoing reasons, Niagara Mohawk's Motion for Summary Judgment is granted, IBEW's Motion for Summary Judgment is granted, and the Second Amended Complaint is dismissed in its entirety.
IT HEREBY IS ORDERED, that Defendant International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, AFL-CIO, Local 97's Motion for Summary Judgment (Docket No. 34) is GRANTED, Defendant Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation's Motion for Summary Judgment (Docket No. 3r) is GRANTED, and the Second Amended Complaint (Docket No. 14) is dismissed in its entirety.
FURTHER, that the Clerk of the Court is directed to take the necessary steps to close this case.

if you have xbox, add me - female kills
I mostly play Left4Dead2 so if you play too, definitely add me!
note: yes, I am well aware that the controller is not on. it's called a prop for a photo. you think you're smart because you notice the controller is off and in an attempt to leave a witty remark and show off your basic observation, you point that out, kudos. but guess what, you're so dense that you couldn't grasp nor have the common sense that it is in fact a prop and if I am in fact taking a photo of my controller, I am not going to be playing a video game at the moment, genius.
I swear, the density in some of you baffles me at times.

Staying happily married has become a difficult proposition in recent times. Although the institution is still firmly embedded in our culture, divorce rates have steadily climbed since the 1960s. While some marriages are truly divorce-worthy, many other broken marriages can be saved. Recent emphasis on personal needs and greater social acceptance of divorce and alternative lifestyles may have weakened the resolve of partners to work through their problems. Furthermore, many couples may not realize that problems in their current marriages are likely to surface in other relationships. Consequently, while they may consider divorce a solution, it may in fact only be a stepping stone to the next relationship where patterns may repeat. Solving marital differences can be difficult. They tend to be linked to or caused by other problems, and that can make it hard to identify the real reasons for conflicts. Without knowing the true nature of their problems, couples cannot arrive at solutions that actually work. To understand the underlying issues that plague many marriages, the authors look to the research conducted on the subject over the past fifty years and to real life stories of success and failure to outline the major issues that detract from marital stability. Drawing on Louis Primavera's twenty-five years in private practice as a marriage counselor, each chapter is peppered with anecdotes that every married person can relate to, and that help bring issues to life. The authors also propose frank and honest solutions that can help couples have more satisfying relationships. Anyone looking to improve their marriage will find suggestions for sussing out the underlying problems they may be experiencing and guidance for addressing those problems.

There is a rumor flying around that the Detroit Lions are close to hiring former Ohio State head coach Jim Tressel as their new offensive coordinator, according to ESPN.com.
New Detroit Lions coach Jim Caldwell is in the process of putting together a staff that can take a talented team to a championship. One of the first names that popped up to have a significant role on Caldwell's staff was former Ohio State head coach Jim Tressel, a colleague of Caldwell's during the one year they were together in Indianapolis. There's even talk that a deal with Tressel is already in place, with only approval from the front office remaining, though that is unconfirmed.
Even with everything that went down at Ohio State, I'm surprised Tressel has never gotten a chance to coach in the NFL since leaving Columbus.

Vale-Mozambique moves 1,000 trainloads of coal
Maputo, 4 Jan (AIM) – In December, the Brazilian mining giant Vale moved its one thousandth trainload of coal from its open cast min in Moatize, in the western Mozambican province of Tete to the port of Beira.
This year, Vale-Mozambique plans to transport 4.5 million tonnes of coal – equivalent to 1,700 trainloads – down the Sena railway line to Beira.
According to the Vale Manager of Logistical Operations, Vanderlei Marques, cited in a press release from the company, the thousandth train was an important landmark in the company's operations in Mozambique. It began its Mozambican operations slightly more than a year ago, and has so far transported over two million tonnes of coal to the main world markets.
"The target reached is a historic gain for Vale's business in Mozambique, and vastly exceeds the figure reached in 2011, which was just 120 trainloads of coal", said Marques. "This achievement is strengthening the name of Mozambique in the world market for coking coal".
Currently all of Vale's export quality coal travels down the Sena Line to the new coal terminal in Beira, which has a modern system for unloading and storing the coal, and then loading it onto ships. The terminal can handle up to six million tonnes of coal a year.
But Vale already has to share the terminal with another coal company, Rio Tinto, and in the near future Vale's production capacity will exceed the capacity of the Sena Line to move it.
Vale is therefore building a new railway across southern Malawi which will link up with the existing northern railway line to the port of Nacala. A new coal terminal at Nacala-a-Velha is planned (facing the existing port), and should be operational by late 2014.

Softest all-cotton sheet. Permanent drape-over-the-skin fluidness that envelops but does not cling. Embroidered with scalloped edges.
- Engineered yarns are designed for softness that cannot wash out.
- Medium-body construction doesn't settle too close to your skin
- Colorfast embroidery on flats and pillowcases. 400 threadcount combed cotton. Made in Portugal.
- Oversized to fit mattresses up to 19 inches.
The Touchy-Feely experience
Tied as the softest 100% cotton sheet tested. "Eternally Drapeful" fabric seems to have a sense of its own of where to adjust and where to hang loose. Non-stretch cotton prevents the fabric from , reducing the size of the air pockets that disperse body heat and humidity (perspiration). Follows your every move with a fluidness that envelops but does not cling.
Durable, medium-body construction. If you want the lightest soft sheets, see our "Zero Gravity" cotton sheet.
The Softest Fabric
The remarkable softness of "Eternally Drapeful" sheets is the result of yarns specially engineered for pliability. Made of two windings spun together into a single 2-ply yarn, they are rarely used in America.
The responsiveness of double-ply yarn is varied and more complex than a single-ply yarn. The individual windings overlap and slide; contract and relax in response to movements in the fabric. It is this fluid interplay, not possible with single-ply yarn that contributes to "Eternally Drapeful" softness.
Plied yarns are also stronger (suspension bridges are possible only because of seven or higher-ply cables). Each "Eternally Drapeful" winding is so fine and delicate it must be paired with a second ply to withstand the stress of weaving.
The strength of double-ply yarns also ensures longer fabric life. Sheets made with double-ply have smaller fiber balls (pills) than single-ply sheets. Although the double-ply process is costly, we stand by the flexibility and durability of the sophisticated "Eternally Drapeful" yarns.
American law defines a double-ply yarn as it's single-ply inferior. "Eternally Drapeful" is 400 thread count according to European standards; in America's "No Ply Zone" the sheet is counted as 300 thread count. Made in Portugal.
100% cotton. Sateen woven to enhance drapability. Will not stiffen with extended laundering.

Third-party software, such as accounting applications and ad campaign management software, can be used in conjunction with Yandex.Direct. These applications interact Yandex.Direct through an application programming interface (API), which can be used to automate many of the actions available in the web interface, including creating campaigns, ads and keywords, retrieving statistics and much more.
The majority of API users are online stores, advertising agencies and people with a large number of ad campaigns. The beta version of the API is available free to users of the professional interface and users of the light interface can use a simplified version:
It is possible to configure the interaction parameters through the API in the Yandex.Direct web interface. For this purpose there is a menu item with the same name.
To call API methods, the application sends a request to the server containing the name of the method and input parameters. The application then receives the method result in response. Requests can be exchanged in JSON (recommended) or SOAP. There are plugins and libraries supporting JSON and SOAP for Perl, PHP, Python and other languages. This makes it possible to develop applications using popular web programming languages.
All data is exchanged using the secure SSL protocol, which prevents unauthorized access when transferred over open communications channels. Users receive tokens from the Yandex oauth server when logging in. Digital SSL certificates may also be used.

Critic Reviews for Key of Life (Kagi-dorobô no mesoddo)
All Critics (1) | Fresh (1) | Rotten (0)
"Key of Life" could have been a little snappier in the pacing department, but the energy level and inventiveness never flags, and when the comics twists and turns come along, they're beautifully executed.
Audience Reviews for Key of Life (Kagi-dorobô no mesoddo)
This is a modest little Japanese Rom-Com. It's not laugh-out-loud funny, more of an occasional chuckle funny. A suicidal actor changes identity with a successful hit-man. The hit-man has amnesia after a bathhouse fall. The hit-man comes into the sights of an attractive young woman. She is planning her wedding. All she needs is a husband candidate. The three characters meet on various occasions; and complications ensue. The Japanese take on the Rom-Com genre was interesting. The movie was mildly entertaining. There are some successful plot twists. It is a cute story. It was an OK trip to the flics.
This review is gonna be kept short and sweet. This is a pretty good movie all things considered. It feels too long for its own good though. If you made this movie 105 minutes instead of a little over 2 hours, I can guarantee you'd have a much better movie. Regardless, this film is made entertaining by a talented cast and it makes the length that much tolerable. The characters were funny and interesting but they weren't exactly complex...even if the movie does try to give them a little depth, it doesn't always work necessarily. Still this is a good movie and the switch between Kondo and Sakurai lead to some funny moments and developments. This is a good Netflix watch, nothing more nothing less.
Super Reviewer
Funny, violent, well-realized "trading places" story in which both parties may learn to live better and be happier. Some clever turns and fun characters.

It may look like the climatic scene of an alien invasion movie. In fact, it is the Daredevil Opera Company doing what it does best - bizarre, eye-catching stunts.

Skip to comments.UN Set to Reveal New Age "Messiah"? VIDEO
Posted on 07/01/2010 9:19:45 AM PDT by nysuperdoodle
If you check in regularly with the Drudge Report, you probably remember the mysterious light spiral over Norway last year, and the multitude of explanations offered for it (I think we were finally told that it was a Russian missile experiment gone awry). Now there's a new light spiral in Australia, that isn't getting so much attention - and there aren't any Russian missile tests anywhere near there. So what gives?
A quick visit to the website of Share International, a creepy, occultist, messianic New Age group headed by Benjamin Creme, says these light spirals in the sky are a sign that the New Age Messiah is about to reveal himself to the world. It's easy to dismiss these people as kooks, but even more disturbing, at least to me, is that the New Agey, occultist kooks at Share International are funded by the United Nations.
So at the very least, we know over on 1st Avenue the United Nations is expecting some kind of a global event to precipitate the "emergence" of their leader, and there's no shortage of current and imminent threats that could provide exactly that.... the oil spill in the gulf, Iranian nukes and Israel's self-defense, currency crashes and market instability. Will any of this result in a global theocracy headed by some supernatural New Age Messiah? My crystal ball's in the shop, but I sure think these wackos are worth keeping an eye on, and we'll be doing that here at ECR. In the meantime, I've excerpted and linked a few videos and stories that you may find... interesting.
One world, one people, one leader.... sound familiar?
(Excerpt) Read more at evilconservativeonline.com ...
Aurora Australis (Southern Lights)
Submarine missile test.
The aussie spiral was completely resolved.
It was a spent fuel tank re-entering the atmosphere.
The Norway spiral was a Russian Bulava missile gone awry.
This Australian spiral was attributed to the SpaceX Falcon 9 launched at Cape Kennedy earlier in the day.
Bush's fault
Yup, I see the end of the world coming. Fortunately most of us and our grand children's grandchildren won't be around to experience it. But if it really bothers you, you have time to get your things in order. In the mean time, I'll just fish and gulf and not worry about it. Oh there will be more wars, you can bet on it. Will they be on our soil? I would say that we are long over due for it. I'd worry more about that than the end of the world and the coming of a messiah from any of the worlds religions.
Agreed, and the fuel tank was venting from at least two places while it was spinning. But - some force held the spiral of escaping gasses in a rigidly uniform and tightly compact spacing, with no uneven expansion or crossover of the spiral lines, until the fuel escaping from the tank ran out. Then whatever that controlling force was, turned off, and the spiral immediately dissipated into a generalized mist around the black "hole" left in the center where there was no escaping gas. So the question is - what was that force that held the gas spiral structure so rigid?
links don't work please post the links
We've been told in the Bible to expect a one world religion (false) with a prophet who will work with the antichrist. If you watched the tapes at the website, and understand that this organization (Share) is funded by the UN, and understand Bible end-time prophecy, then this becomes very believable.
LOL, astute observation.
What do you think it was...
I remember hearing this and i don't have any "link",that benjamen creme and maitreya have had an office over at the UN for years.
Supposedly after a true global catastrophe,maitreya will make HIS announcement and remedy-
any authentic Godly miracles will be atributed to his demonic abilties.
....one night,George Noory had creme on via the phone and he had to cut the interview off due to feeling very ill,and he's not having creme back either.
Many of the new agers openly talk about killing off those with a "low consciousness" when their dear leader comes so they can have Utopia. They are totally creepy in a Biblical sort of way.
There is going to be a supernatural element in end-time events, and not just at the very end.

Met some of my classmates from high school there along with other friends and thoroughly enjoyed everything! The wait staff is very friendly, too!
Is this restaurant good for breakfast?
Is this restaurant good for bar scene?
Is this primarily a coffee shop?
Thanks for helping!Share another experience before you go.
Met some of my classmates from high school there along with other friends and thoroughly enjoyed everything! The wait staff is very friendly, too!
We stayed at the hotel next door and walked to Meg's because it was close. What a good choice for a great meal! Good sized portions and delicious.
Everything's BIG in Texas! Large and filling portions! Good food. A little pricey but Great 1st impression...
I have never had a bad meal at Meggs. The food is fresh and done to perfection. The service is akways good and with a smile. Even the hosts are friendly and nice. My favorite restaurant in Temple.
After a UMHB football victory, we headed straight to Megg's. Seating was immediate. Our meal was delicious! I ordered the brown butter pecan pancakes with a side of bacon. Yep- breakfast on a Saturday afternoon was perfect. Others in our party of 10, ordered the amazing Brussels sprouts & crab dip---again delicious ( not what one would think of as... More
We had steak and eggs and eggs Benedict. Both delicious. A very popular place with good atmosphere and great service.
I had the deviled egg appetizer and the poutine. It was something I had never had but really enjoyed. It is not for the faint of heart as it is french fries covered with cheese and sausage gravy. Nice big portion and I could only finish half. The waitstaff was attentive but not over bearing.
Service is slow because food preparation takes longer. However, the wait is worth the quality...never had a bad meal!!! They also have a great bakery! It is a bit off the access road, but just look for CVS...the restaurant is west of CVS, just pull into CVS and nose around through the parking lot...or just Google.
En route from Austin to Dallas we decided to stop in Temple, Texas for lunch and stumbled across Meggs Cafe. The atmosphere was pleasant and the staff was alert and very helpful. I decided on the Pastrami Reuben with house-made sauerkraut, Swiss Cheese and Russian Dressing on Country Rye; I had them substitute Sour Dough bread for the Rye. Excellent... More
We stopped for lunch and what a delicious meal. We all enjoyed our meals. The food is all fresh and creatively prepared. Staff was friendly and helpful. Loved the beer recommendations, especially the one by Voltron.

Life is Short But Wide
J. California Cooper
This book is available for download with iBooks on your Mac or iOS device, and with iTunes on your computer. Books can be read with iBooks on your Mac or iOS device.
Like the small towns J. California Cooper has so vividly portrayed in her previous novels, Wideland, Oklahoma, is home to ordinary Americans with big hearts. Among them are newlyweds Irene and Val, who graciously allow their neighbors, Bertha and Joseph, to build a house on their land. Together the couples have three daughters, all who struggle to find love and success in the changing world. But although the years may bring hardship and heartache, they also teach the importance of living one's life boldly and squeezing out every possible moment of joy.
An irresistible story of faith and family, Life Is Short But Wide proves that no matter who you are or what you do, you are never too old to chase your dreams.

|Rotonda Golf & Country Club - Hills Course -- ok but won't get your golf juices flowing
|Review by: Joe Fumbalushi
|This course is short but you have to be very accurate off the tee with many hidden water hazards. There are really no holes that could be called a signature hole. I've played many and this course does very little for me to get me excited about playing the game.

Manuals, Literature & Videos for the 9000 XTR
Overview of the 9000 XTR
The Invacare 9000XT Full Recliner is the choice for individuals who demand a truly versatile, yet moderately priced, lightweight reclining wheelchair. The variety of rear wheel options allow for different seat-to-floor heights for self-propulsion and with a rear axle base that moves, the center of gravity can be stabilized while in a reclining position. The 9000XT Recliner can be configured into an endless amount of seat widths, depths and heights, and has multiple frame and upholstery options.
- Wheelchair shown with options that are available at an additional cost.
- Note, rear wheel pricing includes appropriate rear anti-tip tubes, which are required for the 9000 XT Recliner.
Measuring Guide
View Detailed Measurement Guide
- Seat Depth1
- Measure from the most posterior point of the body to the inside of the knee, minus at least two inches. Some prefer more leg overhang to make room for their hand when lifting their leg.
- Back Height2
- Measured from the seat base to the top of the wheelchair back. Depends on how much upper back support is needed, and also affects freedom for the upper body to rotate.
- Rear Seat to Floor3
- Measurement from the ground to the rear seat edge. Relative to the front seat-to-floor dimension, this determines the rearward slope ("dump" or "squeeze") of the wheelchair seat.
- Hanger Angle4
- Determines how far the toes extend away from the body, measured from the horizontal. A tighter angle allows the wheelchair to turn around in less space. Depends in part on ability of the knee to bend towards the perpendicular.
- Seat Width5
- Determined by the widest point of the body from knee to hip, plus an inch to ensure room to move. Consider bulk of clothing, particularly a heavy winter coat, if relevant.
- Wheel Camber6
- Angle of the wheel relative to the vertical. More camber improves stability and agility, but also limits ability to pass through narrow spaces. A typical daily wheelchair uses three degrees of camber.
- Front Seat to Floor7
- Measure the leg from the back of the knee to the sole of the foot. Then subtract the thickness of the cushion when it is compressed. Next, add a minimum of two inches for footrest clearance. Do not add the footrest clearance if the wheelchair will be foot-propelled.
- Footrest Width8
- Measure from the inside of each legrest tubing the distance or desired distance between legrests.
- Center of Gravity9
- Measure from the front of the seat back post to the center of the rear axel.
- Seat to Footrest Length10
- Measure from the edge of the seat upholstery to the top rear of the footrest.
- Backrest Angle11
- Measure the the angle of the back post to the floor. Ninety degrees will be perpendicular to the floor, to approximate the angle from the back post to the seat, subtract two degrees from measurment for every .5" of dump.
