these issues...

MEBA CG bill ready for signature...DHS labor rules illegal...Leon
Shapiro, Mike Fanfalone make final voyage...TWIC comment period
approaches... Smackdown! In a hulked-up, steel cage edition, we flex
our muscles and wrestle down the piledriving industry items of the
week. Throwing our weight around, our MEBA/maritime news tag team
bodyslams the competition and gets those hard-to-pin articles in a
headlock. Take it to the mat with the "king of the ring." The Telex
Times - it's no holds barred!
JUN 23, 2006
MEBA to crew up GALENA BAY...Trumka meets MEBA affiliates...House
votes to defund NSPS...Mineta to step down...Off course? All over
the map? We go the extra mile and stop at nothing en route to our
maritime destination. Going above and beyond, we're front and center
at every turn so you'll know your news forwards and backwards.
Always moving ahead, the Telex Times is a step in the right
direction!
JUN 16, 2006
P.L. 480 money okayed...MEBA riding engineer agreement prolonged...MEBA
ship in vessel rescue...CAA Reunion coming up...Off our rocker, we
go loco in an unhinged, twisted edition that brings you a demented
amount of news flakes from the maritime asylum. We're committed to
bringing you a certifiable, newsletter-gone-haywire that you'll go
nuts over. Crazy like a fox -- the Telex Times, there's a method to
our madness!
JUN 09, 2006
POID positions created...MEBA-sponsored bill would remove at-sea
repair loopholes...JAX hall is operational...M.O.S. is in
effect...Aloha! On Hawaiian time, we hang loose on the Big Island in
a hula edition and prepare for a news luau. Go get some macadamias,
grab a cup of kona and catch a wave of maritime articles in a
muumuu-sized issue. The Telex Times is the Big Kahuna!
JUN 02, 2006
New jobs with Chevron...Agreement for Horizon newbuilds...Tuesday
meeting in JAX is at Clark Rd. hall...Break a leg! We premiere a
crowd-pleasing new issue and set the stage by belting out an
industry song-and-dance. With our name in lights on the MEBA
marquee, we take a curtain call and bring the house down with a
maritime star turn. That's entertainment! A real show stopper, the
Telex Times is a tough act to follow.
MAY 26, 2006
Maritime Day recognition for members...Pres. Bush releases
proclamation...Pride of Hawaii christened...House approves ANWR...In
a blue-collar, hard-hat edition, we punch the clock, put our nose to
the grindstone and make short work of another issue. We get down to
business, use a little elbow grease and show who's boss by
shouldering a heavy load of maritime news. Doing a bang-up job, the
Telex Times is a labor of love!
MAY 19, 2006
Labor Secretary Visits school...Tonnage tax system altered to
benefit more companies...Brief maritime observance at
School...Express yourself! We give a shout out to the industry and
sound off with the latest MEBA chatter that speaks volumes. Getting
vocal, we pay lip service and verbalize the news of the day as we
spread the maritime word. The newsletter with the gift of gab, the
Telex Times is the talk of the town!
MAY 12, 2006
MEBA to move into MM&P digs in JAX...Hurricane medals to be doled
out on Maritime Day...Rooms getting scarce at CAA
Reunion...Everything must go! In a news clearance, blue-light
special we mark down our entire inventory of wholesale industry
items. Discount the irregular, budget busting competition that tries
to sell you a bill of goods. They're no big deal! While supplies
last, preferred customers can use the special MEBA coupon and take
an extra 15% off all red tag maritime articles in stock. Never
undersold, you can't put a price tag on the Telex Times!
MAY 05, 2006
PRODUCER crew exposed to fungicide...Members respond to warehouse
blaze...Great Lakes news...Abercrombie saluted...Port bills
pass...¡Ay Caramba! We get loco and go south of the border in a
macho Cinco de Mayo edition. A hot tamale, we bust open a piñata
full of news as busy as a Mexican jumping bean and pure as the
virgin of Guadalupe. ¡Don't drink the water! Get some sangría, tip
back your sombrero and strike up the mariachi band for a maritime
fiesta. ¡Viva la MEBA - The Télex Times gives you the whole
enchilada!
APR 28, 2006
PRIDE OF HAWAII is state-side...FRC wraps up work...T-AGS
jobs...Lawmakers do a stop-by...In an infomercial edition, we
present the amazing Ronco salad-shooting maritime news of the week -
not sold in any store. It slices, it dices! How much would you pay?
But wait, there's more! Call in the next 10 minutes and receive a
travel-size wood chipper! The miracle-strength, all-in-one pocket

APR 21, 2006
MEBA ship gets ‘Bravo Zulu’...NCL takes Pride of Hawaii...WSF, Gulf
Coast tankers listed as targets...U.S. Navy may step up patrols in
Somali waters...We cobble together a chiseled, rock-solid
information landslide from the news quarry that'll hit you like a
ten ton boulder. A chip off the old block, we cement our gritty
reputation to a fault and pulverize the porous, fossilized
competition. Taking nothing for granite, the Telex Times leaves no
stone unturned!
APR 14, 2006
MEBA supports BHP LNG project...Horizon newbuild deal finalized...MEBA
School group at Aker...A real asset, we prepare an E-Z, itemized
schedule of MEBA & maritime statements filed jointly and adjusted
for your benefit. Exempt yourself from bankrupt newsletters with
deferred interest. They didn't earn it! We give you a break, place
you in a higher news bracket and refund you with an industry bottom
line that you can't write off. As certain as death and taxes, the
Telex Times brings you many happy returns!
APR 07, 2006
ABS deal to hire MEBA officers...CG bill negotiations wrapped up...Jamian
leaving MarAd, Nelson to take over...FRC elected...Central
Gulf/Waterman contracts ratified...School news...Fit to be tied?
Don't reach the end of your tether with knotheaded, threadbare
newsletters that spin yarns. We pick up the slack and lasso the
latest MEBA cables intertwined with maritime news off the wire.
Bound and determined, we show you the ropes and lash down an issue
with no strings attached. The Telex Times throws you a line! |
