Hannon: I’m going to call the meeting to order. I want to welcome everybody to Alliance. I want to start by thanking some of the staff that have been so helpful in getting this meeting set up for us. Verna has done an incredible job as usual with the hotel arrangements, the meal arrangements, the snacks and all the stuff that she has gone and done. Thanks to Terri for her help. Mariane has been terrific at picking up people at the airport and assorted other duties. Brian set up the meeting room for us and will be tearing it down on Monday, so our thanks to all of those people for helping to make this weekend so accommodating for us. Eigenhauser: Maybe I’m not awake yet but I don’t see the recorders. Anger: I’m changing your battery. Hannon: I don’t think it’s necessary to do a roll call, right? Anger: Right. Hannon: We can visualize who is here. Do we have Carla on the conference call yet? While we’re doing that, also Jean Dugger is not with us. She had some surgery I believe on her shoulder. She’s not participating with us this weekend. I offered her the option of, like Carla, participating by phone and she opted not to do that. Carla is going to be participating by conference call, so we’re going to be calling in now so that she can participate. Welcome Carla. Welcome to the meeting. Bizzell: Hello. Hannon: Glad to have you with us via conference call. Bizzell: I’m glad to be there. Hannon: We’re going to take a moment of silence to think about the recent hurricanes, the situation in Texas, Florida, Louisiana, Puerto Rico; the earthquake situation in Mexico; the problems around the world and how they have impacted people. Our thoughts are with all of those people. [Moment of Silence] 3 (2) ADDITIONS/CORRECTIONS TO THE MINUTES. RATIFICATION OF ON-LINE MOTIONS Moved/ Motion Vote Seconded 1.
