  • Selected Highlights of Women's History
    Selected Highlights of Women’s History United States & Connecticut 1773 to 2015 The Permanent Commission on the Status of Women omen have made many contributions, large and Wsmall, to the history of our state and our nation. Although their accomplishments are too often left un- recorded, women deserve to take their rightful place in the annals of achievement in politics, science and inven- Our tion, medicine, the armed forces, the arts, athletics, and h philanthropy. 40t While this is by no means a complete history, this book attempts to remedy the obscurity to which too many Year women have been relegated. It presents highlights of Connecticut women’s achievements since 1773, and in- cludes entries from notable moments in women’s history nationally. With this edition, as the PCSW celebrates the 40th anniversary of its founding in 1973, we invite you to explore the many ways women have shaped, and continue to shape, our state. Edited and designed by Christine Palm, Communications Director This project was originally created under the direction of Barbara Potopowitz with assistance from Christa Allard.

Platinum health care and retirement plans. Job security despite massive screw ups. These are the hallmarks of America’s highest paid “government workers” – and they cost taxpayers millions of dollars. But these well-paid workers aren’t the local teachers, social workers and corrections officers that Americans were told are responsible for state and local budget woes. Rather, they are the corporate executives who worked hard to privatize public services and who use taxpayer dollars to enrich themselves with outlandish salaries and benefits. After a review of shareholder lawsuits, criminal investigations, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) sanctions and court settlements, the Center for Media and Democracy (CMD) is exposing some of the highest paid “government workers” in this report, including: • Ron Packard, of K12 Inc., America’s highest paid “teacher.” As CEO, Packard made more than $19 million in compen- sation between 2009 and 2013, despite the alarming fact that only 28 percent of K12 Inc.

  • Waste Management, Inc
    Final Report . 3 WASTE MANAGEMENT, mc Edwin L. Miller, Jr. District Attorney March 1992 .. 3 1. INTRODUCTION In late 1990, Waste Management, Inc., filed for a major use permit seeking io develop a privately owned and operated landfill site to be located at Gregory Canyon in San Diego North County. For this project to proceed, the San Diego County Board of Supervisors needed to.- approve a number of permit and zoning change applications presented by Waste Management, Inc. On November 21, 1990, prior to such approval, the Board passed a resolution requesting that the Distric; Attorney conduct an investigation of Waste Management, Inc. In a memorandum to this office, dated December 10, 1990, Supervisor Susan Golding listed The following specific concerns regarding Waste Management, Inc.: Allegations of price-fixing and other anti-trust violations Allegations of criminal conduct Allegations of environmental contamination and illegal dumping of toxic and hazardous materials Allegations of inadequate liability insurance hela by WMI on their municipal and hazardous waste operations Allegations of organized crime connections Initially, we anticipated the full cooperation of Waste Management, Inc., which would have included the company gianting waivers of confidentiality and defamation 1 liability. We considered these conditions essential for a full and compiete investigation, since it would have included unlimited access to company records. However, the company refused to grant these waivers. Our investigation has consisted of acquiring information from a number of sources including the public media, the public records of various governmental bodies, 1) prior investigations conducted by both public and private organizations and the repofis and records of other law enforcement agencies.

  • Uva-F-1143 Mccaw Cellular Communications: the At&T
    UVA-F-1143 Version 2.2 MCCAW CELLULAR COMMUNICATIONS: THE AT&T/MCCAW MERGER NEGOTIATION In September 1992, Craig O. McCaw, the founder and CEO of McCaw Cellular Communications, mused about the recent discussions he had engaged in with Robert Allen, chair and CEO of AT&T. Allen had approached McCaw regarding a possible partnership. Such a deal would enable AT&T to enter the wireless industry and at the same time provide McCaw Cellular Communications, Inc., with sorely needed capital to exploit its cellular operating licenses. McCaw had sacrificed much of its financial flexibility in its hostile takeover of LIN Broadcasting in 1990 and now was saddled with over $5 billion in debt, which had depleted cash reserves and reduced net income. A potential offer from AT&T, the global telecommunications powerhouse, intrigued Craig McCaw as he reflected on the difficult road he and his family had traveled in growing the family-run cable operation into the nation’s leading cellular service provider. McCaw considered the possible reasons why AT&T was pursuing McCaw Cellular. One reason might have been that AT&T sold cellular phones but offered no cellular service, while McCaw offered cellular service, but sold no equipment. Or perhaps it was future access to personal communications system (PCS), the next generation in wireless technology. Or maybe it was McCaw Cellular’s existing seamless wireless national network for voice and data transmissions, a network behind which AT&T could throw its brand name, databanks, marketing clout, and technical expertise. A deal between those two firms would offer to McCaw AT&T’s undisputed expertise in the industry and its global marketing and sales force power to expand its overseas presence.

  • Mccaw/AT&T History
    McCaw/AT&T History Key Dates: 1984: The first cellular systems are built in Chicago and Washington, D.C. 1987: Craig McCaw sells his cable television assets to focus on wireless business. 1989: McCaw Cellular Communications acquires LIN Broadcasting. 1992: AT&T Corp. acquires 33 percent of McCaw Cellular Communications. 1994: AT&T Corp. and McCaw Cellular Communications merge. 1998: AT&T Wireless Group introduces Digital One Rate. 2001: AT&T Wireless Services, Inc. is spun off as a separate company. Company History: AT&T Wireless, Inc. is the third largest provider of wireless and data services for consumers and businesses in the United States. Through licenses with the Federal Communications Commission, AT&T Wireless has the potential to serve 99 percent of the U.S. population based on the territory covered by its licenses. The company serves more than 20 million subscribers. Through AT&T Wireless's WorldConnect service, subscribers can expect service in more than 100 countries in the Americas, Australia, Asia, and Europe. Origins Although AT&T Wireless's corporate roots sprouted from McCaw Cellular Communications, wireless technology was first developed under the aegis of AT&T Corp. It was a case of a company pioneering a technology and later being forced to buy its way into a business it had first developed. In 1947, AT&T Bell Laboratories engineers invented cellular phone service specifically for law enforcement. Police departments were having trouble staying in contact with their patrol cars. At the time, police departments and patrol cars communicated with each other through radio frequencies, but during periods of high use, the system collapsed.
