  3. Re: Shanghi in Los Angeles Port Thanks for the words of encouragement
  4. Re: Shanghi in Los Angeles Port Bill Mongelluzzo, Associate Editor | Dec 3, 2011 7:07PM GMT The Journal of Commerce Online - News Story Ports/Terminals | Labor | United States Ruling says dock workers can't honor picket lines of clerical workers The waterfront arbitrator in Southern California ordered longshoremen back to work over the weekend, ruling they could not honor picket lines established by striking office clerical workers at marine terminals in Los Angeles-Long Beach. Members of the Office Clerical Union of International Longshore and Warehouse Union Local 63 have been working without a contract since June 2010. Negotiations broke down last week, and the OCU placed pickets at the Yusen terminal and three terminals operated by Ports America. Although the 580-member OCU is affiliated with the larger ILWU, the office workers have a separate contract and their own officers who handle contract negotiations. When the officer workers began picketing the terminals shortly before noon on Friday, dock workers left their jobs. The Pacific Maritime Association, which represents the terminal operators, asked the area arbitrator to rule on the validity of the pickets. The arbitrator, appointed jointly by the PMA and ILWU, ruled the OCU demonstrators did not constitute a “bona fide†picket line, said Stephen Berry, the attorney who represents the employers negotiating with the OCU. The decision to order the dock workers back to their jobs at the end of the day shift on Friday is a blow to the OCU negotiators. The OCU would have achieved extra leverage in their contract negotiations if cargo-handling longshoremen were allowed to honor the picket lines. The OCU last year attempted a similar job action and the arbitrator at that time also ruled the picket line the OCU established was not legitimate. Bottom line looks like I just might receive my KK hopefully soon. Dennis if your reading this I hope it is good news. Kind Regards Captain Greg & Kathy Goodwin
  5. Well 2 days and a wake before I get to get off the boat. Only to find out my KK and also my table are being kidnapped by the clerical workers for the Port of Los Angeles. hopefully this strike doesnt last to long, and right before Christmas. All the planning that has been put into this and preperation now this. Hell I could go out buy some kobe beef and it would still not satisfy my gratification, until I can actually cook on the KK grill which I had purchased. And I am just venting, I hope you all understand the frustration me and my wife are going through.. Let alone Dennis, Dont worry Dennis your not alone.
  6. Re: Help in preperation Done more research and the Party Q battary supply only last about 24 hours I would have to get a supply of batterys to operate it. I think i am looking at the Cyber QII it has the internal temp and food probe.
  7. Re: Help in preperation To be honest with you by the time they wished they did it would be over.
  8. Good day, I am in need of some information so that I am on the right page with everyone, I am Looking to purchase a Pit Viper 10 CFM Fan for my soon to arrive 23 cobalt blue cooker, and also a PartyQ No Adapter temp controller. I am not really sure how these two units come into play with each other and have researched it and still cant come up with the right information . I am pretty sure i am on the right track of these two items, but what does confuse me is that the PartyQ connects to the grating , but what about the meat that your cooking. Your controlling the temp inside the cooker just as if it were the oven in your house,correct. Any help so that I get the right parts for my soon to arrive cooker would be greatly appreciated. Any simple instructions or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Kind Regards Captain Greg & Kathy Goodwin

  10. Hello All KK grillers Me and my wife have been busy getting things ready for our new arrival. I know it still is days away before our grill makes it to our doors step. But the planning and timing is going to pay off for the holiday festivities to begin. I have been busy working on the water. My wife has made plans and drawings for our new KK resting place in our back yard. She added onto our deck, poured a bigger slab of concrete for the existing slab adding a additional 13 feet and then had a dome shaped awning added to our existing pergola, that is all coming together. The fluid motion of all of this coming together could not have been completely done with out the help of my wife Kathy and of course Dennis. We purchased the 23" cobalt blue and also we went in with getting a table to go along with it. I know when I get this work of art home I will be on here quite a bit asking questions and help, also for good recipes and just basically all around good down home conversations on what everyone on here likes to do and that is to COOK. I am really looking forward to this new experiance I have found. Kind Regards Captain Greg Goodwin
