The Trinitarian language is the language of the Bible, and it is essential to Christianity. Indeed, the Christian faith points to Christ and announces that we can only know the Father through the Son. Confusing the God of the Bible with Allah of the Quran is not only a mistake, it is a dangerous distortion of the Gospel of Christ.
I appreciate this statement. Although I believe that you are correct in posting this, you are being too nice. It isn't just dangerous, it is blasphemous.

Brazzos 225-271-3560 in Denham Springs by the Magnolia bridge. Acadian Cypress 985-386-6079 in Ponchatoula. Unless Hogan Hardwoods reopened they are closed.
re: What's your method of breaking in a baseball glove
Posted by justusstone on 2/16/15 at 2:23 pm to CENLALSUFAN
The best way is to oil it lightly and let your Little Leaguer throw and catch with it. That it is broken in to their hand. The oven, hot glove or microwave method is very hard on the laces. It will destroy the laces. If you are short on time, oil it and work it into the glove by hand until the oil is absorbed into the glove. Repeat. Try not to put your hand into the glove very much. I use mink oil or neatsfoot oil when I can find it.

If you only knew. Geismar will be in a different state if they continue on the path that they are on. The "Geismar Way" is slowly being taken away out from under your noses.

Most don't know about the "bonus" the companies were offering. Along with that came a cut in pay. Give you a lump sum now, but cut your pay. By the way, you will never get that cut in pay back.
Also, a raise based on performance is a two edged sword. That all depends on who is authorizing the raise. Many of the people who contend for this don't have experience with this. Like those who won't tip a server for good service, don't understand because they never lived off of tips, yet they expect great service anyway.
Many here don't support unions because they don't know any better. I know this, we don't have what we have in these industries if it weren't for the unions. Especially the non union sites benefiting from the union contracts.

So it takes 3 years to learn how to read a gauge and turn a valve? Typical union BS. Just sit there and fill out the daily form for 38 per hours and call a member of management when you have a real problem so you won't have to get the foreman to save your job.
The shame isn't just what you posted but there is more than one of you who believe this foolishness.
There, I fixed it for you. Made you a little smarter now.

I tend to agree with this. Might as well call them state news agencies. Wait and see who they will paint as the bad guy in all of this. If it is up to many on this board then we might as well never try to improve because we are too greedy. We already have more than enough already.

You should read the entire thread. Plenty of posts ate up with the DA's. Only want to see what they want to see.

Yeah, all of them I have heard of are enforced by the company. Therefore it is really just a procedure until it is redlined.
That's kind of where we are at right now. They put it on "pause" when we started passing out literature.

It's our own version of API 755. They tried to tell us that it was law. But some of us called them on it. API is more of a suggestion than a standard. Then they told us it was the company's version of it therefore it was policy. It is enforced in house.

Ours applies plant wide. API 755 is what it is called.

Not yet that I know of. I have talked to employees of "support" plants and they were told to have their bags packed and ready yesterday.
