Waching daily May 5 2018

Hello Brothers and Sisters, my name is Linda Leyten. I am your Financial Secretary for Unifor Local 88 and I am running for re-election!

I've been your Financial Secretary for four and a half years.

In that time I've worked hard to bring in more transparency and accountability for how our union dues are being used.

In 2015 we established an annual budget process,

making the leadership more aware of Local 88's spending, and taking a critical look at the net benefit of our spending.

Since adopting a budget process Local 88 has shown net income on our annual income statements.

Last year I asked our accounting firm to start preparing annual financial statements for Local 88,

ensuring even further oversight of our financial health.

Every audit done by our trustees during my time in office has found the bookkeeping to be in good order,

including the last one at the end of April.

I have the practical experience of doing this job for nearly five years and the

leadership necessary to take our local forward while working together with and mentoring newly elected leaders.

Runoff polls for all members in good standing,

including STPTs are at the Union Hall on Friday May 11th from 6 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Inplant elections are on Tuesday May 15th.

Thank you for re-electing me, Linda Leyten as your Financial Secretary for Unifor Local 88!

I have the experience you can count on. It just adds up!

Mudrunner || Preparing the trucks (Integrated Described Video) - EP02 - Duration: 16:17.

Hello! This is Aaron with Yesterdays Games and today we're gonna be playing

some more of Mudrunner and we're starting out here just where we left off

last time, we've delivered all the logs we need for that lumber mill, I'm taking

a look at the map trying to figure out where I'm gonna go next, we have

one more log kiosks that we have to fill on this map. so grab the truck, throw it

into reverse and we start making our way that

direction. same place that we started out in the last episode but

it's full daylight. we can see the little bits of black smoke coming

out of the truck there, we could see the trees that I'm trying to crush, but yeah

so we turn around, we're making our way over here, I had to make two trips

with this same truck, making its way through a little more water here,

but I had to make two trips with this truck and this time I'm thinking

"hey, you know I don't really want to do that" so I'm gonna take this truck over

and get him set up at the log station, I think I'm gonna set up another truck I

have that just has a utility box on it. I'm headed straight

for a big ole' puddle cuz that's always fun, but I'm gonna set up another

one I've got a utility box on and... it's always nice to listen to the

sound of that water as we go through

but I'm gonna get him set up and probably put the same type of log setup

on him as this one, but I think I'm gonna leave this one

with a crane on it, so we should be able to park this guy in a good location to

where I can not only get logs on him but I get logs on the other truck as

well. so coming around the big curve, kind of going for the little route to the

right, pushing a downed tree out of the way, splashing through the

water again, these things... we move quite quickly when there's no logs in the back,

which I suppose makes a lot of sense... bringing him down out of high gear,

chugging through a little more mud, I'm gonna take the branching path off to

the left here, over towards the fuel station, because again these are...

trucks do get a bit thirsty. so I think as we pull up here

there's that old rusty looking fuel tank that has some

Russian lettering and stuff on the side... there we go 91 liters

refilled, taking a peek at the map again, it's not a place I want to go and

get turned around right here close to the end. we've got our little

fuel tanker out there as well, but yeah I'm thinking here I'm gonna

put a spot up there on the road where I'll go and park this guy, this truck...

and we're off, in a high gear, not the highest gear that

we have, but high enough. we have a low, medium, and high gears and

we have a plus one gear. I guess the only thing that's really to notice that if we

go into plus one from a stop, the engine will stall on the truck, so ideally start

out in this one and you shift up as the as the terrain allows which is

the same with switching between a diff lock and all-wheel drive

and everything. so coming up here we can see our little fuel truck just coming

through a little puddle, well I say a puddle, probably would come up to the windows

of any other car, but these trucks will plow right through this water and

be cleaning off those wheels, at least for two and a half

seconds until we get into more mud. again taking a peek at the map, kind

of assessing situations where I'm going "okay I could see the

logging station I want to go to on the left" looking at the different kiosks

that we can go to and I decide upon one that's over on the right side

further to the right because we've got a big stretch of road that we

drive on with the trucks and that'll be much, much easier to deal with. I seem to

be doing some deep thinking about that, so we'll continue along... so up ahead I've

got a puddle to the left and what looks like an off-road

hill on the right here, so I'm gonna keep it straight

and go straight up the hill on the right.

just a few down trees, it looks like it's it's okay... but

unluckily for me, there's some really deep mud in this area and I'm

committed I'm going and the truck is sinking in deeper and deeper and

making absolutely no progress. oh and there the front wheels sank even deeper

in there, I've thrown it into reverse and I decide, okay, we're just gonna

gonna turn the engine off, grab the fuel truck who's right behind there, so

we switched to him and I decide that this is a good opportunity for me

to go and get some fuel to fill up my fuel truck here, before we

go the whole route of going and getting that other truck unstuck out of the mud.

so I turned off the engine of the truck and he's just unhappily sitting

there, mud coming up to the running boards, but we're back in the

fuel truck, which is a six wheeled truck, a big ole orange fuel cistern

on the back. it's the same color and it probably has the same words as

the other one, but not reading or speaking any Russian I still have no

idea, but it moves along quite nimbly. we can see we've got a big old spare tire

nestled just behind the cab, I swing it around the fueling station,

there's a dashed line square on the ground that you can pull into,

so I do a big three-point turn, pulling this truck around, in reverse, pull

in here, so fill up the truck that I have and then we'll go ahead and fill up to

the thousand liters that we can carry in this thing our believe is 1,200 liters..

throw him into the high gear, all wheel off, diff lock on, put it into

the plus one gear, because again this thing... actually, trucks handle a little

nicer when you have some weight on the back, a byproduct of the

suspension on these trucks is that when they don't have any weight in

them, they tend to be a little bit, they tend to bounce around quite a

lot, which I believe is mirrored in real life. so again into the

water and this truck is handling it beautifully. it's a six wheel thing

of a different design of the other truck, but I don't know all that much about

Russian logging trucks, I couldn't tell you what the specific differences are...

it's got a tan colored cab instead of a green one, so I'm coming up to my

logging truck, he's on the right stuck in the mud there, I wisely swing

to the left to him far enough so I'm not gonna get this truck stuck as well.

crunch over a little tree here that's been downed, so this is the other part of

the game that's neat, we have access to a winch system, so I press

Y on my gamepad, let's bring it up and I attach to the front of that other

truck. now the nice thing is they do give you a little help where the other truck,

its engine comes on he's gonna, there's gonna be the AI hitting the gas

on that one, but I throw it into the medium gear and there we go the fuel

truck is struggling along through there, but I can see the other truck

making its way out of there and we've got him free!

I decide to just leave them hooked up here, until we can get them both over the

road, because it'll save me 10- 15 seconds or so to just stay in this

truck, drive him over there, my logging truck is happily enough chugging along

behind me getting a free pull along, I've gone ahead and turned off the

all-wheel drive on the fuel truck cuz we don't need it.

we do have four wheels in the back, turning plenty fast.. so we

slow down a little bit, turn the all wheel but drive back on, just to get

through the rest of this mud, but just about made it... just about and there we

are, our front wheels have touched down on that tarmac and that's good

enough, I can see the back of the truck sliding around a little bit as we

pull the other weighty truck, so there we go we released the logging

truck, I switch over to the logging truck to pull him over here,

out of the mud, and just off on the side of the road. so there we go, so he's

pulled off there, go ahead stop the engine switch, over the fuel truck and I...

I'm gonna park him up here where I figure "okay there's

a path I can see on the map", that'll wind in to the top of where

that other logging station is and I figure, if anyone's gonna need fuel or

need to be rescued, perhaps I'll put this truck over to that

area and that'll make life easier down the line.

if I have to come in and refuel one of these guys that's run out

of fuel, or has otherwise gotten so

hopelessly stuck that I've got to go and bring another truck and to get him, that

little tiny path up above, that I'm gonna be using I haven't been on,

I've never seen it, so I don't know exactly what I'm gonna run

into out there, so we shut that truck down, I'm taking a look at the map again

and I've got set a way-points down to where there's a little river crossing...

and we switched back over and start up our logging truck, I'm happy to leave him

in automatic as we are on the tarmac here, all that shifting but I don't have

to do it, which is quite nice because normally, otherwise, I do shift

manually with this thing when I'm off road.

so we're cruising along here making fantastic speed and we're just now

passing the fuel truck on the right, "hi fuel truck guy" and I give them a little honk,

through a block post. there's these block posts out there that force

you to not take the easy route when you have trucks with logs on them. so

we're passing, there's a little path on the left there, that's where we're gonna

take soon... a nice little truss bridge that we're cruising across...

and I said it's nice, it's it's about five o'clock, time passes in this game

quite quickly I want to say it's a minute passes every three or four

seconds, so it's not like it's not one-to-one by any means, so here we go

we've reached our spot that we'll be turning off the road here. I've learned my

lesson in this area, in this spot particular, one of my smaller trucks when,

I was playing this map earlier, got stuck here... so off the road, over a little hill,

push a few tiny saplings out of the way and we've approached the fast-moving

River! I can see another truck of ours just

across the way, but I leave my truck in high gear, engage all wheel drive, hear that water

splashing up against the truck, taking a little bit of damage but slowly, slowly

making our way through, it's a quite a serious thing crossing rivers, so

I've slowed down a little bit but we keep the throttle pinned

and we're through it! we did take a little bit of damage, I mean that was a

single point of damage and I've got, I want to say, 600 that I can deal with, so

no reason for me to have to worry about that.

I do decide to stop next to our other truck which is of the same, I believe the

same make as our fuel truck, but I repair both of those trucks because he has a

big utility cab on there, so again consult the map, figure out what

which turns I've got to make, but that truck there,

I'm gonna be retrofitting it to carry some logs. but we're here, it's

less muddy, you can see some deep wheel tracks here, this seems to be

a fairly well used path. I'm making a right turn up here up a hill

here, while all-wheel drive is on, diff-lock is on, I see lots of broken branches and

and felled trees in the area, you can tell that there's been some logging done

certainly

yeah, this is almost easy unless you get off the path too

much, to where the trucks really like to track into these wheel

marks, I've got him in high gear, diff lock is off because if you are using

diff lock on a hard surface and the wheels are not able to turn at different

speeds, as they do sometimes, you can actually damage the truck and the

transmission that way, so here we are we are, into the logging area and I'm

going to swing really wide with this truck and hopefully get

him right next log kiosk, which is our place that we spawn those logs down,

working through that mud and everything over on this side. there we go,

so it's gonna have to the non insubstantial thing of...

I'm backing up a trailer, which is always a bit of a mess up when I... oh! go ahead and

jackknife that, yeah as you see anyone who's had to back up a

trailer, putting their boat in the water or something like that, it is not for

the faint of heart. but anyway I think this is approaching the end of

our second episode here, and in the next one we are gonna retrofit that

other truck and I believe take this truck and that truck, full of logs, over to

where our log kiosk is and be able to go from there. but thank you! if you enjoyed

this give it a like down below, thanks for watching and we'll catch you in the

next video :)
