Mike Jacob Is New PMSA President After Battling Oakland A’s To Stop Howard Terminal Ballpark

Mike Jacob Is New PMSA President After Battling Oakland A’s To Stop Howard Terminal Ballpark Congratulations to my friend Mike Jacob, who was named the new President of Pacific Merchant Shipping Association (PMSA) as of September 27, 2023. Mike Jacob was the lawyer for the PMSA, and successfully fought against the Oakland A’s effort to build Howard Terminal Ballpark. Not that this vlogger is happy about the outcome but that’s the end result. Not just from PMSA’s efforts but mostly because the City of Oakland slow- rolled work getting the Enhanced Infrastructure Financing District implemented so the promised subsidies for affordable housing, sea-level rise, and community benefits, could happen. At any rate PMSA issued this statement: Mike Jacob has been an integral part of PMSA since 2005, serving as Vice President and General Counsel. With an impressive educational background from the University of California at Berkeley, and Hastings Law School, his expertise and experience are unparalleled. Mike’s tireless efforts in the maritime industry and his outstanding contributions to PMSA make him the ideal choice to lead us forward. Congratulations, Mike Jaob, and GO BEARS! Stay tuned

Oakland Mayor's Race: LWV Forum Draws Oakland's Older Folks

By
Oakland Mayor's Race Forum first take. (Which means, there's going to be more of these posts on last night, because a lot was happening.) This just in: The Oakland Tribune's out of touch with Oakland. A number of attendees of the 450 estimated said they learned of the Oakland League Of Women Voters via "the newspaper." All of the people who made that statement were over 50 years old. Still, the forum, which attracted every candidate except Dr. Terrance Candell, was a success. The auditorium at 300 Lakeside Drive seats 380 people, so if you do the math, it was about 70 over capacity. The crowd was a happy mix of supporters of candidates and long-time observers of the Oakland political scene. The one complaint they had was there wasn't enough time to hear what the candidates were about. That wasn't because there were too many candidates, but due to the format. Either Oakland Tribune Editor Martin Reynolds or the League of Women Voter
