GTE Federal Credit Union taps Boeing's Joseph Brancucci
Joseph Brancucci was named president and chief executive officer of GTE Federal Credit Union .
Brancucci, a senior executive in the financial services industry for almost 40 years, succeeds Wendall “Bucky” Sebastian, who was GTE’s chief executive until December. Brancucci will join GTE in early July, a release said.
Brancucci is currently the executive vice president and chief operating officer of BECU, formerly Boeing Employees’ Credit Union, a credit union in Seattle with $8.6 billion in assets.
“It was time to move on and take on a new challenge,” Brancucci said of the move to GTE, a smaller organization with $1.6 billion in assets as of March 31.
GTE, the second largest credit union headquartered in the Tampa Bay area, posted net losses of $44 million in 2009 and $27.5 million in 2008 before posting a slim $63,000 in net income for the first quarter of 2010, according to call reports filed with the National Credit Union Administration .

Bucky 40 Blinks Mask Ultralight Eye Mask,Retro,One Size
The mask is super soft, and the foam bulges out over your eyes, so you don’t feel the subtle pressure of a cheap mask. The mask is very light weight — it adds about as much weight to my carry-on as a toothbrush. My experience is that thinner bands slip while I’m sleeping, and the mask slips out of position. I typically carry a cheap-o sleep mask (the kind the airlines used to give out for free) in case the person next to me wants to keep a reading light on or open a window onto daylight when my body says it’s still night. The difference between this mask and a cheap one is amazing. The cheap masks don’t work well, but they’re better than nothing. Then, on a recent flight from India, I saw a passenger wearing one of these masks. The seal around my eyes is fantastic — even in a sunny airplane cabin, the mask blocks out all the light. However I prefer it to the thin bands common on other masks. The headband is a bit thick, as at least one other reviewer has noted. This product probably doesn’t need another five-star review, but it deserves one....
