It’s a lively conversa- tion, one that might have caused a few executive ears to burn red. As you might guess, there are some repeaters on the Top 10 list from prior years. People who make a lot of news in one year gen- erally don’t disappear the follow- ing year. Roger Penske and Dan Gilbert are two of those. But sometimes people appear for a single event. Such is the case with Ralph Babb Jr., chairman of Comerica Inc., who orchestrated the bank’s decision to move its headquarters to Texas. Or Graham Beal, who shepherded the breath- taking reinvention of the Detroit Institute of Arts last year. Or Ron Gettelfinger, for the landmark auto talks in 2007. On balance, we have more “good news” on the Top 10 list than one might imagine, given the region’s economic troubles. The top Newsmaker will be hon- ored on Feb. 14 with a luncheon at the Hyatt in Dearborn. For tickets, go to www.crainsdetroit.com/ newsmaker. Our resolutions By now, most of us have proba- bly made — and maybe broken — a resolution for the new year. Publications can have resolu- tions, too. Here are some of the NOMINATIONS SOUGHT FOR 40 UNDER 40 Crain’s is seeking nominations for the 2008 class of “40 under 40.” This is arguably our most sought- after awards program, recognizing young achievers based on factors such as financial impact, and civic and community leadership. These are the up-and-comers who are changing the Detroit area. Winners will be profiled in the Sept. 29 issue, and Crain’s will celebrate their achievements at an October event. To be eligible, nominees must be under age 40 as of Sept. 29, 2008. For sponsorship opportunities, call (313) 446-6052. Visit www.crainsdetroit.com/nominate for the online form. Nominations must be received by April 7.

  • Notice of USPS Decision to Consolidate All Originating And
    September 9,2011 Mr. Cliff Guffey Certified Mail Tracking Number: President 7010 2780 0003 6469 2247 American Postal Workers Union (APWU), AFL-CIO 1300 L Street, NW Fax: (202) 842-4297 Washington, DC 20005-4128 Dear Cliff, This is to inform you of the Postal Service's decision to consolidate all destinating mail processing operations at the following Great Lakes Area location: • Flint, MI Processing & Distribution Center (P&DC) into the Michigan Metroplex, MI Processing & Distribution Center (P&DC) After review, it was decided that this consolidation is in the best interest of the Postal Service. Implementation of this AMP is expected to be completed by January 2012. Enclosed, per your request is a copy of the completed study. The Postal Service must continually look to improve productivity and increase efficiency while maintaining excellent service. The decline in mail volume and revenues due to the economic downturn has only heightened the need for such improvements. These consolidations will allow us to accomplish this goal by making better use of excess space, staffing, and equipment, and to process mail more efficiently. We have redacted information from the study in accordance with our standard practice. We have also redacted mailer names, companies, and titles that were notified of the study. The mailer names, companies, and titles do not appear to be relevant to the Union's representational responsibilities. Volume numbers associated with service standard changes have also been redacted. This data is commercially sensitive and could be advantageous to our competitors. In order to protect market share, the Postal Service must protect the confidentiality of this information.
