" GM's bonuses and profit sharing in the current contract included a $5,000 ratification bonus, four quality bonuses of $250 each ($1,000), three lump sum $1,000 performance bonuses ($3,000) and profit sharing of $30,250 ($7,000 in 2012, $6,750 in 2013, $7,500 in 2014 and $7,000 plus a $2,000 special performance payout in 2015 "



" General Motors earned $6.3 billion in the fourth quarter, more than five times the year-earlier's $1.1 billion, and its UAW workers will receive profit sharing of up to $11,000 based on the company's 2016 pretax profit in North America of $11 billion.

The profit-sharing payout is the highest for any of the Detroit-area automakers "

" General Motors Co. said Tuesday its net income last year fell less than 3 percent to $9.43 billion due to a one-time gain it had in 2015. But with record profits in North America and strength in China, the company posted several yearly records including pre-tax adjusted earnings of $12.5 billion. "

" As expected, the Republican attempt to block a vote on the Collins-Nelson Amendment to the stimulus package has failed, with Republicans Susan Collins, Olympia Snowe and Arlen Specter joining the 58-member Democratic caucus to invoke cloture. "

From Keith Richard's "Life":

"Once again it was Bill Carter who came to my rescue...First he had assured the Canadian court when he posted my bond that I had a medical problem and that I needed to be cured of my heroin addiction. He made the same case to his  contacts in the White House, where Jimmy Carter was president, using all the muscle he could work, talking to one counsel there who was Carter's drug policy man, fortunately charged, at the time, with finding solutions more effective than punishment...Miraculously, his White House contacts instructed Immigration to grant me a visa, and he got permission from the Canadian court for me to fly to the United States. We were allowed to rent a house in Philadelphia, where Meg Patterson would treat me every day for three weeks...And I've always been very grateful to the US Government for allowing me to come to America to get help to come off the stuff."

Peace is silent


As a P.O.W. from the Battle of the Bulge in World War II, Kurt Vonnegut, who died April 11, 2007 from a head injury, survived the the fire bombing of Dresden, Germany, which killed more people than the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima.
He was born on Nov. 11, 1922 and mentioned in “Breakfast of Champions” that Nov. 11 used to be called Armistice Day, when the people from each of the 32 nations that fought in World War I would be silent on the 11th minute of the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month each year because in that minute in 1918: “millions upon millions of human beings stopped butchering one another.”
He added that the World War I vets he talked to said in different ways that the silence of that moment “was the voice of God.”
Maybe you remember the Aug. 27, 2007 Bangor Daily News “Spotlight” photo by AP photographer Adil Al-kazali showing four-year-old Hibba Ali with the head injury she suffered from a battle between U.S. and Iraqi forces and the Mahdi Army bandaged.
