Race Report: Florida Winter Tour - PBIR Rotax Weekend - Sunday
After an intense day of Saturday racing here at Palm Beach International Raceway, Formula Kart Productions Florida Winter Tour, presented by SPORTALITY, proved once again why it is THE Winter Place To Be as the worlds largest Rotax MAX Challenge program continues into its second race day of the 2012 FWT season. It was a history making weekend as a record number of 293 drivers accounting for 586 entries made this weekends events officially the largest Rotax MAX Challenge events ever held. With multiple classes hitting their entry cap, one can only wonder just how big these FWT events would be if we werent forced to turn people away.
Up for grabs in four of the seven classes is the coveted invitation to the 2012 Rotax MAX Challenge Grand Finals. This years Grand Finals is set to take place in Algarve, Portugal this November. However the Grand Finals invitation is just one of many reasons given for the attraction of the Florida Winter Tour. When we asked drivers why they come to the FWT, we hear answers ranging from the intense competition and the ability to raise their competitive skills to a higher level, to its a fun place to be with friends and family in the beautiful Florida sunshine.
For those that come purely for the chance to go to the Grand Finals, were happy theyre here and were proud of all our FWT Grand Finals qualifiers. But, lest anyone think this would be an easy place to earn their invitation, be forewarned, the competition here is extremely fierce and the fields are stacked with quality drivers. Theres no better example of this than the plight of 2010 Junior MAX Grand Finals champion Jordi Van Moorsel. After a difficult run Saturday to narrowly take the victory in Junior MAX, the young Dutchman succumbed to the pressure on Sunday and did not even make the Finals. In the end he had to settle for 14th in the Consolation race. Such is the level of competition here in Palm Beach this weekend.
The Palm Beach International Raceway features a kart sprint track, a ¼ mile drag strip and an FIA accredited two mile long road racing track. As such theres almost always another event going on and this weekend the FWT crowd was treated to the sounds of one of the new IndyCar engines. The Lotus IndyCar Team was here to test their new engine for the upcoming season and the sounds of the turbo V8 could be heard throughout the facility. Many of the drivers ventured over towards the IndyCar test. Its no secret that most of the drivers here aspire to race something like that in the future and we have no doubt a few of them will get their shot.
Additions to this years program include new cameras for the 16-channel video marshaling and FWT LIVE! broadcast. These new cameras, courtesy of Direct View Video Systems (directviewsecurity.com), offer an advanced level of quality for even better marshaling and event broadcasting. Although the old cameras have been replaced, one aspect that needs no replacement is The Voice of Rotax, Englands own Ken Walker. Ken returns again this year and is as popular as ever as he calls the races from FWT LIVE! Command Central. (Note from FWT owner Bill Wright: Internet connection issues at the Palm Beach facility caused the FWT LIVE! broadcasts many issues for the duration of the event. Although much of the event was not streamed across the internet, all the January finals were recorded and will be available for viewing at the FWT web sites MULTIMEDIA video archive section within the next two weeks)
During todays lunch break, it was once again time for the drivers to get together for our annual FWT group photo. This weekends event had an all-time Rotax MAX Challenge event record of 293 drivers. Add in 30+ race officials and the participant photo assembly created quite a spectacle. Its not often that many people get together for a group photo so some pre-arranging needed to be done. But, once in place everything went very smoothly and the drivers returned quickly to their assigned pits preparing to race.
Daniel Morad holds off Michael Vincec to win DD2

After the drivers photo, it was time for the SH Karting sponsored DD2 class to take to the track for their Final. Qualifying fastest on Friday for this group was 2010 Rotax Grand Finals World Champion Daniel Morad (Canada). Nicknamed Hollywood for his effervescent personality and history of sensational on track actions, Daniel would start the Final from the second row after finishing fourth in the Pre-Final, won by 2011 FWT DD2 Champion Michael Vincec (Canada).
As the DD2 Final got underway, former US DD2 National Champion Cody Hodgson (USA) and Nicholas Latifi (Canada) made a break away from the pack. Cody led for the bulk of the race but Nicholas assumed the top spot with two laps to go. On the last corner of the penultimate lap Hodgson set up Latifi on the final corner and executed a nice outside-under move on to the front straight that allowed him to retake the lead. It was not to be Codys race however because in the twisty section of PBIRs far end there was contact between the two and Hodgson was off the track, but quickly rejoined, now fourth, where he would finish.
Although this allowed Nicholas to take the checkered flag first, he was to receive a time penalty for the maneuver which shuffled him back to sixth. All this promoted Morad and Vincec up into first and second from third and fourth, with Hodgson awarded third. Although Daniel Morad expressed at the podium that this was not the type of win he was aiming for, a win is a win and this time it was his.
Stuart Clark (Canada) was the fastest qualifier for Keane Racings DD2 Masters class and has been running well all weekend. Starting fourth was American shifter kart specialist Alan Rudolph (USA) and it wasnt long before the two were nose-to-tail in a fight for the lead in the Pre-Final. In the end it was Rudolph taking the win by less than half a second. In the Final, it was Rudolph and Clark on the front row. Clark jumped the start a little bit but it was enough to warrant a 10-second penalty. The penalty was moot however as he dropped out after 12 laps with mechanical problems.
With Stuart out, It all seemed like it was going to be easy for Alan Rudolph but Jean Valerio (Costa Rica) and Mike Jones (USA) came on strong towards the end to keep Alan honest. At the finish the top three were Rudolph, Valerio and Jones followed by defending DD2 Masters FWT Champion Rene Martinelli in fourth.
During our spotlight interviews we had a chance to talk with Alan Rudolph about his decision to race at the Florida Winter Tour. He said a while back MRPs Garry Lobaugh planted the seed in his mind about representing the USA at the Rotax MAX Grand Finals. Over time that seed started to grow to where it became a goal he had to achieve. After a first and a second on the weekend he seems well-placed to make a run at it, but its early in the FWT season. Still, if anyone has the qualifications, its Rudolph.
Could this finally be the U.S. Grand Finals Champion? Alan has been in karting for 32 years and is a legend in the U.S. shifter kart community where he won the coveted RIGP King of the Streets race five times between 2001 and 2007. For the past 13 years hes been the lead instructor at the Bob Bondurant Karting School and hes also designed his own shifter chassis, the RBI. With all that experience, its hard to believe this weekend was the first time hed ever driven a DD2. With a little more testing under his belt he should definitely be one to watch for the rest of the FWT season.
Justin Sirgany (Jamaica) has been all kinds of fast this weekend in PSLKartingUSA.com sponsored Micro MAX. As such, it was no surprise to see him starting on pole position in the Pre-Final after being the fastest qualifier. However, in the Pre-Final the win went to Dylan Tavella (USA) while a 10-second penalty from the start dropped Sirgany back to sixth. For those that notice a common theme here, the message is clear; the 16-channel video marshaling system and the speed gun monitoring/speed display board system used exclusively at Formula Kart Productions events makes it virtually impossible for someone to jump or otherwise misalign their start without getting busted.
Antonio Serravalle wins his second Micro Max final of the weekend
(Photo: Ken Johnson - Studio52.com)
In the Micro MAX final, Sirgany and Tavella were pacing the field once again. But this time, Saturdays Micro MAX winner, Antonio Serravalle, had joined the mix. Lap after lap the three fought over the top position but managed to do it smartly which allowed them to actually put some distance on the battle for fourth place. With a couple laps to go, Serravalle took the lead and never looked back. At the checkered flag it was Serravalle with the win followed by Sirgany in second and Tavella third.
ZCD Autosport sponsored Rotax MAX Masters took to the track after the Micro MAX race. Thomas Radivoy (USA) had proven his early speed by qualifying fastest during the Friday qualifying sessions. Never the less, it was Pedro Troncoso (Dominican Republic) who came through in the Pre-Final to take the victory. In the Masters Final, the lead seemed to change ownership just about every lap as drivers were using the draft down PBIRs long straightaways, sometimes five wide into turn three at the end of the straight.
At the white flag it was Scott Falcone (USA) leading but the pack drafted by going towards turn three. After a few more shuffles, it was Thomas Radivoy once again on top with the victory followed by Christiano Piquet (Brasil) and Falcone.
Next up on track after the Masters was the Ocala Gran Prix sponsored Junior MAX class. Although all the Florida Winter Tour classes feature tough competitors, there are a few that stand out even more. Junior MAX is one of those. Everywhere you look you see champions from other divisions, Rotax MAX Grand Finals winners and veterans, and more. To win Junior MAX at the FWT you will have proven you can run with the best. During Sunday qualifying and through the Pre-Final, the best was Parker Thompson (Canada) who used his pole position to take the early win.
In the Junior MAX Final, Kyle Kirkwood (USA) got the jump at the start and for a while looked like he would check out on the field. Unfortunately for Kyle, PBIRs long straights make drafting a priority and before long the field caught him like they were running a NASCAR restrictor plate race.
The first two to catch Kirkwood were Oliver Askew (USA) and Zachary Claman DeMelo (Canada). The three battled for the balance of the race with Parker Thompson in fourth with a shot as well. On the last lap Oliver Askew took control and seized the victory for himself and his team. It was an especially sweet victory since his mothers family was visiting from Sweden and they got a chance to see Oliver win. It was also sweet because Oliver drives for Junior MAX class sponsor OGP. OGPs owner Jorge Arellano has been a bit under the weather lately and couldnt make the trip to Palm Beach. Were hoping Olivers win, as well as other wins for the team, will send good mojo his way so he can join us again soon.
In the RYSA Racing sponsored Mini MAX class, Devlin DeFrancesco (USA) set the pace in qualifying and kept it through the Pre-Final to bring home a win. By the time of the Mini MAX Final, the sun was low on the horizon and the shadows were starting to grow long. Devlin grabbed the lead at the start and showed the way for the first handful of laps ahead of Pedro Tavarez de Moraes Carsoso (Brasil) and Logan Sargeant (USA).
After a few laps had been run, Pedro and Logan got by Devlin and started their own battle for the lead. The top spot changed hands a few times but on the last lap it was Cardoso out front and holding off Sargeant. Unfortunately for the young Brazilian, a small driving infraction penalty pushed him back to third, giving Sargeant the win and allowing Gianfranco Mazzaferro (Canada) to slip into second.
Fritz Leesmann takes the win in Senior MAX after Nick Neri (151) runs wide in the last corner
(Photo: Ken Johnson - Studio52.com)
Goodwood Kartways / Intrepid North America sponsored Rotax MAX Senior; remember what we said about the entry list for Junior MAX? Well, take that and double it for Senior MAX. This weekend Senior MAX featured three double MAX Grand Finals World Champions, National Champions from multiple countries, previous Florida Winter Tour champions, up and coming open wheel car racing drivers and a host of other accomplished car and kart drivers. One things for sure, whoever wins Senior MAX at the Florida Winter Tour will need to go big.
Fritz Leesmann (USA), another U.S. shifter kart specialist, started the weekend off right by qualifying fastest for Sundays Senior MAX Pre-Final on Friday afternoon. In the Pre-Final he used the number one starting spot to do something unusual. For the first time all weekend Fritz did the unthinkable and actually broke away all by himself to establish a four-second lead over the pack fighting for second. It was an amazing drive and all that was left was to see if he could repeat the feat in the Final.
When the Final was underway, it was Steven Szigeti (Canada) and Daniel Formal (USA) that paced the field from the front. Leesmann and Nick Neri (USA) were third and fourth but before long they were at the front with Nick holding a one second margin over the others while they battled for second. While this was going on, 2011 Senior MAX Grand finals World Champion Ben Cooper (UK) was making a charge from the tail end of the field, helped by a very aggressive start, up to an eventual sixth place finish.
As the checkered flag approached, Neri held a small lead over second and looked like he would take the victory. But going into the final corner Nick overcooked it a bit in an attempt to block any down-the-inside passing attempt. In doing so he missed his mark ever so slightly but that was enough to put him on the marbles and run wide at the exit to the corner. Waiting to take advantage was Fritz Leesmann who capped off the perfect race by taking the pole, the Pre-Final and Final wins. Behind Leesmann, Steven Szigeti came home second and Nick Neri held on for third.
After the last race, the podium celebrations were held while another beautiful Florida sunset faded into darkness. In addition to race trophies, FWT Presenting Sponsor SPORTALITY awarded a Replay XD video camera to Mini Max final winner Logan Sargeant. ULV Racing suits (www.ulvracinggear.com) also provided extra awards by providing a custom fitted and designed driving suit to two Hard Charging FWT drivers. The ULV Hard Charger awards went to Mini Max driver Pedro Fonseca and DD2 Masters driver Renato Hidalgo, who had the biggest improvement in their finishing position during their respective finals. ULV also provided a drawing that awarded one lucky recipient with a fully customized suit, and Juan David Buitrago was the lucky driver.
Formula Kart Productions Florida Winter Tour presented by SPORTALITY continues to grow every year. As such theres so much going on we cant fit it in just one race report. However, before we sign off from Palm Beach International Raceway, wed like to remind our followers of the Nations Cup and Manufacturers Cup competitions. These prestigious championships will be calculated throughout the year so log onto
to check the latest standings.
It was an extremely successful two weekends here in Palm Beach. With world record numbers of competitors during the FWT RMC events and an FWT record 746 entries during the combined January events, on-track action that was off the hook, and beautiful weather, its no wonder the Florida Winter Tour is THE Winter Place To Be!

The Church itself is a large stone building with a spire, the highest point in Gateshead, and was consecrated in 1825.
It underwent long-awaited building work in the late 1990's to construct two meeting rooms at the rear of the church and two toilets. One of the meeting rooms has a kitchen area. The formation of these spaces has allowed the Church to be used for a range of meetings that was not previously possible and with the removal of Church pews and replacement with quality chairs and carpet, midweek activities using the body of the church have also been made possible. The majority of these have been church orientated but the space has also been used occasionally for community purposes.
A good quality Harrison's Organ was obtained from a redundant church and installed in 1999.
The parish of St John's is a well-established residential area situated towards the south of Gateshead Metropolitan Borough. The population is around 10,000 and consists mainly of local people, born and brought up in the area.
The parish has the Queen Elizabeth Hospital situated within its bounds; this is the main hospital in Gateshead with nearly 600 beds together with outpatient and accident & emergency services.
Larkspur and Glynwood are two primary schools within the parish.

Leading Tech Analyst Previews Earnings for ARM Holdings, Harmonic, Sanmina-SCI, STMicroelectronics, and Texas Instruments PR Newswire PRINCETON, N.J., April 22, 2013 PRINCETON, N.J., April 22, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --Next Inning Technology Research (http://www.nextinning.com), an online investment newsletter focused on technology stocks, has issued updated outlooks for ARM Holdings (Nasdaq: ARMH), Harmonic (Nasdaq: HLIT), Sanmina-SCI (Nasdaq: SANM), STMicroelectronics (NYSE: STM), and Texas Instruments (Nasdaq: TXN). During 2012, Next Inning editor Paul McWilliams predicted both the spring and fall corrections as well as the rally that started in November and carried through the first quarter of 2013. On the day the November rally started, he advised readers it would lift the NASDAQ by as much as 18% by the end of March 2013. As we know now, that is exactly what happened. To keep Next Inning readers ahead of the curve, Next Inning is now publishing McWilliams' highly acclaimed earnings previews. These reports outline McWilliams' outlook for the second quarter and provide readers with deep insight into the world's leading tech companies. McWilliams also shares his opinions as to which of these companies investors should buy and which should be avoided. Trial subscribers will also receive McWilliams' 167-page State of Tech report, which includes 35 detailed tables and graphs, for free, no strings attached. This report is a must read for investors and analysts focusing on technology in 2013. Already in 2013, McWilliams suggested buying several including Cree (up 57% year to date), Micron (up 48% year to date), Marvell (up 34% year to date), PMC Sierra (up 18% year to date) and SanDisk (up 20% year to date). Stocks he suggested avoiding/selling include Fusion-io (down 37% year to date), Netlist (down 20% year to date), Fairchild (down 18% year to date) and Cypress (down 11% year to date). McWilliams' new earnings previews outline which stocks investors will want to own and which they should avoid. To get ahead of the Wall Street curve and receive McWilliams' Q1 2013 State of Tech report, you are invited to take a free, 21-day, no obligation trial with Next Inning. For full details on this offer, please visit the following link: https://www.nextinning.com/subscribe/index.php?refer=prn1554 Topics discussed in the latest reports include: -- ARM Holdings: Why does McWilliams think investors should avoid ARM Holdings, despite the fact that it is a great company with a compelling growth story? While the press isolates on the competitive threat ARM poses towards Intel, are there valid reasons to also consider the growing threat Intel poses to ARM in the mobile markets? What other competitive threats is ARM facing today that haven't yet made the headlines? -- Harmonic: Why does McWilliams believe the introduction of CCAP technology will substantially boost revenue growth potential for Harmonic? What advantages does McWilliams think Harmonic has over its competitors in this emerging market? How might the new Ultra-HD standard impact Harmonic's business? What other trends does McWilliams think will benefit Harmonic this year? -- Sanmina: What is Wall Street overlooking in the Sanmina equation? Does McWilliams see more upside ahead for Sanmina over the next six to 12 months, despite high volatility? -- STMicro: What company-specific factors have weighed on STMicro? Does McWilliams see other factors shifting over time to work in the company's favor? In what critical growth market has STMicro recently overtaken Texas Instruments to be ranked as number one by market share? Could STMicro shares move above $10 within the next three to six months? -- Texas Instruments: McWilliams turned a cold shoulder to Texas Instruments when it announced it would buy National Semi. According to McWilliams, TI was overpaying and he pulled no punches when he said investors should sell at the then current mid-$30 price. However, he flipped to a bullish view and suggested buying the stock last year when the price dipped into the mid-$20s. What caused McWilliams to reverse his view on TI, and with the stock now back into the mid-$30s does he see more upside ahead? Founded in September 2002, Next Inning's model portfolio has returned 229% since its inception versus 71% for the S&P 500. About Next Inning: Next Inning is a subscription-based investment newsletter that provides regular coverage on more than 150 technology and semiconductor stocks. Subscribers receive intra-day analysis, commentary and recommendations, as well as access to monthly semiconductor sales analysis, regular Special Reports, and the Next Inning model portfolio.

The early-'90s Batman series was probably the best animated superhero show ever, mixing stylish animation with a dark tone appropriate for the Dark Knight. The second volume, comprising four discs of 28 episodes and vastly preferable to the many single-disc releases, features familiar characters the Joker, Catwoman, the Penguin, Two-Face, Poison Ivy, as well as the first appearances of the Riddler, and Ra's Al Ghul and Talia. The episodes are highlighted by the Emmy-winning two-parter "Robin's Reckoning," which recounts the origin of the Boy Wonder and his chance for revenge years later. In "Perchance to Dream," Bruce Wayne finds his parents alive and another Batman patrolling Gotham City, the two-part "Something" pits Batman against Miyazaki-styled robots, and Batman revisits the samurai training of his past in "Night of the Ninja" and "Day of the Samurai." Give the series credit for not talking down to kids--Japanese characters spoke in Japanese with English subtitles, and one episode, "Almost Got 'Im," was styled after a '50s black-and-white variety show. It employed smart humor and characterization even to the point where it could let villains carry an episode. Certain stories were based on comic books, and the series involved comics veterans such as Denny O'Neil and Len Wein.

Discovery to Premiere Nine-Part Series BREAKING MAGIC, 11/11
Is science the secret sorcery to creating a successful magic trick? Discovery Channel and Discovery Channel International go on a worldwide tour with today's most innovative magicians who transform pure science into mind-boggling magic tricks. Get ready to learn the chemistry, physics and biology powering the world's greatest illusions. The new nine-part series comprised of 30-minute episodes, BREAKING MAGIC, premieres on Sunday, November 11th at 10PM on Discovery.
BREAKING MAGIC fuses the showmanship and mystery of street magic with the raw power of science. Watch as each trick surprises unsuspecting bystanders with mystifying results. Discovery Channel recruits today's freshest and most creative magicians to show how science works with shocking tricks including knocking down a wall with the power of one's voice, turning a sliver bracelet into gold, slowing the speed of a dropping cannonball and many more. Hidden cameras on the streets of London, Warsaw and New York City capture bystanders completely baffled by these magicians' unexpected tricks. Immediately following these demonstrations, each magician explains the scientific reality behind each illusion. Meet our magicians:
Wayne Houchin (United States of America) - Houchin made headlines when he escaped from a straitjacket while hanging 50 feet above an intersection at the age of 16. Since then, Houchin has worked with famed magician, Criss Angel, and co-founded magic site theory11.com - all while breaking world records in magic.
Ben Hanlin (United Kingdom) - Hanlin is one of the youngest members of The Magic Circle and hit U.K. fame with a 2011 appearance on "Britain's Got Talent." At only 25 years old, Hanlin continues to stun audiences globally with his amazing skills.
James Galea (Australia) - Galea is an award-winning magician who consistently headlines numerous venues with his magic shows across the world. His high-profile debut to American audiences occurred when he mystified everyone with his 673 King Street routine on "The Ellen Degeneres Show" in 2010.
Billy Kidd (Canada) - one of the few female magicians in the world, Kidd has mastered the art of magic. She was trained under the world famous magician Gazzo and has traveled worldwide to show audiences her unique sense of comedy, personality and slight-of-hand magic tricks.
BREAKING MAGIC is produced for Discovery Channel by Objective Productions. For Objective Productions, Andrew Newman and Paul Gilheany serve as Executive Producers. For Discovery Channel US, Executive Producer is Brian Dean with Paige McKenzie. For Discovery International, Executive Producer is Sarah Davies with Rob Holloway and Marion Said.

With that in mind, I'll look at a couple of the more interesting I'll look at a couple of interesting teams so far. For each of these teams,
I'll show their preseason projection, as well as what their projections would like look like given their record after week one, after week two and after week three.
While everything in these tables is based on the projections run before any games have been played,
you can see the impact of each win or loss on a team's total season projections. Let's start with two teams that have started
on a hot 2-0 streak, Michigan and Texas.
In each of the two below tables, the original preseason projection is at the left, and each column to the right represents their
projection given a win in each successive week. For both teams, being 3-0 increases
their win projections nicely. LSU in particular now looks pretty elite, as their projection went a touch over 10 wins given a 3-0 start.
While there are plenty of games where a loss is possible, only Alabama is rated as a likely loss, and even there it's more like a tossup.
Of course, the fact that Alabama has played very well will factor into the true odds (and drop LSU's win probability somewhat), but even so
it's very clear that at the least they have a solid shot. And if they can win that game, a national title run becomes a very strong possibility.
They still need to make it to that game unblemished, but right now their chances of that seem pretty decent.
As noted in the above comments, I should emphasize that these tables are conditional expectations that don't reflect how each of their future opponents
have done so far, or what the actual scores have been, just that there was a 1-0, or 2-0, or 3-0 start. So it is a simplification, though one that
I still think is interesting to look at.
Next, let's look at a couple of surprising 3-0 teams, Iowa St and Vanderbilt. As you can see in the below tables, their 3-0 starts don't guarantee
a postseason berth (Iowa St's win expectation is about 5.5, and Vandy's is just over 6), but for both teams the odds are a whole lot better than they were at the start of the season.
Next up is a pair of interesting 1-2 teams. BYU started the year with an important win over Ole Miss, but followed it up with a close loss at Texas
and an blowout home loss to Utah. Notre Dame, on the other hand, has improved week over week, culminating in a clear win over an overmatched
Michigan St team. As the table shows, even at 1-2 BYU is expected to beat UCF next week (all the more so considering how UCF just lost at FIU).
As long as they don't get upset there (which would substantially downgrade their expectations), they're projected to end up at a pretty respectable number.
Notre Dame, on the other hand, has a long way to go to try and hit 8+ wins. With a number of potential landmines remaining on the schedule, they'll be hard-pressed
to reach that number, much less 9 or 10 wins. That said, they've got some solid opportunities coming up to show that they really are better than their 1-2 record so far.
If they can turn their one win against the Spartans into the start of a winning streak (and each game for a while is winnable), then their projections
should start to improve. At the least, it seems like they've probably already hit rock bottom with their 0-2 start, and are not likely to end
up bowl-less, as their 0-2 record had suggested was likely.
And, finally, I look at a very surprising 0-3 team, Boston College. Unfortunately for the Eagles,
there really isn't any good news here. Not only are they 0-3, they compiled that record against
some of the easiest tests they'll have all year. It's always possible that things could turn around,
but right now it looks very likely that BC's long bowl streak is going to come to an end.

Still making strides
Supporters of Dr. Garcia help continue legacy
CORPUS CHRISTI - Some focused on the little things Dr. Hector P. Garcia did, such as stretching meetings by introducing as many people as he could. Others emphasized strides in equality made by the Hispanic community during his time.
Most said the best way to honor him is to continue his legacy.
About 35 friends, associates and family members remembered the civil rights leader, who died in 1996, on what would have been his 94th birthday. Members of the American GI Forum Founding Chapter joined others from the community Thursday, and several spoke by his grave site at Seaside Memorial Park.
They recalled his many accomplishments -- World War II service, work as a surgeon, fighting against segregation, standing up to the Texas Rangers and the state government and serving as a U.N. ambassador.
"We enjoy freedoms we have today because of men like Dr. Hector P. Garcia," said Nick Adame, president of the League of United Latin American Citizens Council No. 1. "He influenced men like John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B. Johnson and Ronald Reagan.
"They knew he was a force to be reckoned with."
Winds further chilled an already cold morning with temperatures in the 40s as Garcia's nephew, local attorney Tony Canales, described his uncle's personality and quirks.
"He was a very happy person," he said before placing a wreath near Garcia's tombstone. "I remember meetings would last all day and all night because he would introduce everybody."
Other members of Garcia's family were in San Antonio on Thursday for a separate birthday celebration honoring his life.
Adame said Garcia's work continues as a form of inspiration.
"He detested discrimination," Adame said. "Discrimination we still see today. But know Dr. Hector P. Garcia is out there with you, fighting the same fight."

Some lucky fans in Birmingham, England were lucky enough to hear a preview of another collaboration between Drake and Jay Z. Timbaland, who is currently performing with Jay Z for his "Magna Carter" world tour, offered a clip of the new song at the NIA Arena on Wednesday night.
This would be the latest in a string of collaborations for the rappers, who teamed up for the song "Pound Cake/Paris Morton Music 2″ off of Drake's newest album "Nothing Was The Same." (They've previously met on "Off That" and "Light Up," though Drake has recently admitted he didn't really like the former track all that much.)
There is no official word yet as to where the track would end up, but you can listen to a snippet below.

Certificate of Naturalisation - Issued to Stanio Fancoff, Australia, 1935 Reg. No: HT 17131
- Summary:
- This Commonwealth of Australia Certificate of Naturalisation was awarded to Stanio Fancoff in 1935. Detailing the terms and conditions by which he become an Australian citizen, this document legally denounces Stanio's past allegiances to Bulgaria in favour of his committment to be an Australian subject, and thus entitles him to all rights and priviledges afforded to all Australian citizens.
Stanio Ivanoff Fancoff was born in 1908 in Bojentsi, a small village in Bulgaria. At age 11, Stanio left home to learn the shoemaking trade. In 1929, he immigrated to Melbourne, settled in Fitzroy and began to work for the V.G. Zemancheff & Sons basket shoe factory in South Melbourne. In1936, he married Dorotea Georgi Touzou who had recently arrived in Australia. Around this time, Stanio set up his own shoemaking business from home, with Georgi, her cousin and sister weaving the shoes which he then assembled. Select shoe samples were then taken to Sydney and Tasmania for sale. In 1942, Georgi and Stanio moved to Broken Hill for Georgi's health; there daughter Nancy was born and Stanio set up a shoe shop/factory. In 1945, Georgi died and by 1950 Stanio and Nancy had moved to Adelaide where he again opened a shoemaking business and shop. He passed away in 1978, having been in the shoemaking business for 59 years. This collection documents his migration and working life experiences.

Do you like the smell down there?
guys do you like/dislike the natural smell of a woman's vagina? or you don't care...or you wd rather she applies some cherry/strawberry smell down... Show More
Most Helpful Opinion
i always have to ask my guy how I smell and he always tell me how do I keep it fresh and smells good. and I have to agree with him because every after he goes down on me, I tell him to kiss me and I love my smell on his mouth. so hot :)
and I only use baby wipes in wiping it because our vaginas are very sensitive. when taking a shower I just rinse it with water and I shave twice a week. :)
What Guys Said 5
My lover uses a Bidet or rinses after she pees but no soap or artificial scent. Her natural fragrance is a combination of "sea breeze" and fresh female under-arm sweat. which is slightly salty and tart. The taste matches the fragrance. I like it just fine.
Been down there with perhaps 20 women of all races. Sour pee is the thing you want to avoid. When you pee, spread your lips to get a straight stream without hissing and bubbling. Blot out carefully if that's all you can do or, better, rinse off with a glass of fresh water holding open with the other hand.
TMI? Shouldn't be if you want him to go down on you eagerly.
What Girls Said 2
I know I'm not a guy but I have to say, don't put fragrance down there, it's a good way of getting thrush or bacterial vaginosis which will make you smell like fish or yeast.. Neither of which are pleasant. The best thing you can do to increase the chances of a pleasant scent down there is wash regularly (with water and a ph neutral soap if you wish) and eat well. A balanced diet full of fruit and veg will give you a much better scent and smell.

Thorns and Roses: 11.25.05
For a long time, the Morgan Street clinic that housed the medical practice of the late Dr. Hector P. Garcia has languished, unkempt and unsightly, as time has turned it inexorably into an eyesore.
Now, however, a turnaround is under way. City Hall has committed $20,000 to repair the clinic's roof and erect a fence to keep out derelicts and vandals. Concurrently, the organization that holds title to the structure, the National Archives & Historical Foundation of the American GI Forum, is ginning up an application for $100,000 in federal grant funds to turn the site in to a museum honoring Garcia's life and legacy. To all those involved in this much-needed work, garlands of ROSES. May their efforts thrive.
Bozos at work
Everybody's got a dream. For a couple of addle-pated teen-agers in Cumberland, Md., it appears theirs was to make themselves into world-class exemplars of irresponsibility and stupidity. Over six weeks, the pair made more than 1,300 bogus calls to 911 operators. Beginning with hang-ups, they progressed to profanity and obscenity.
They were busted, and now they must face the music. May the system they attacked proffer them a big helping of THORNS.
A graceful exit
Not the least of the skills that must be mastered by any politician is the art of accepting defeat gracefully.
But it isn't always easy. Certainly it can't have been a picnic for Doug Ingles of Hillsdale, Mich., who lost a bid for re-election as mayor by a mere two votes.
But the margin wasn't the worst of it. His successful opponent, Michael Sessions, was - is - a mere 18 years old. Losing to a kid who can't legally buy a beer - that smarts. ROSES to Ingles for accepting the setback like an adult. May his successor be equally . . . well . . . adult.

Respond to Review of Gopal
by Wine Lover
Review: I visited Gopal twice during my recent stay in Barcelona. If only they had a bigger place with more seating or could put seats outside this place would be pretty perfect. It's nice to see it is busy though. We did manage to find a perch both times and had very nice meals. They have 6-8 different types of burger on display in a glass fronted counter and do a menu deal where you get burger (in a bun or with salad), patatas brava and a drink (incl a local alcohol-free beer option) for less than 8 euros. My companion had burger in a bun while I had my burger with salad instead of a bun both times. There is a good selection of salad items (grated carrot, lettuce, sweetcorn, large tomato slices, gherkins) but the first time it came with olive tapenade and sun dried tomato paste as well as mayo, the second time just with mayo. The burger in a bun comes half wrapped in a napkin which is ideal if you can't get a seat and need to take it away to eat on the go. The burger with salad comes on a plate with cutlery. The cakes, supplied by lujuria vegana, were amazingly good. For take away they have a machine which seals a film lid on a take away container to keep it fresh, though some things like the doughnuts and cold burger patties, they wrap in foil. On my first visit the person serving spoke very good english and was able to describe all the cakes to me. This was handy as the second time the server had very little english. George Orwell Square has a few 'colourful' characters hanging out, drinking and arguing but it did not feel in any way unsafe.

Morgan Keegan fraud alleged; SEC, states aim at $2 billion loss
Federal and state regulators took action Wednesday against Morgan Keegan & Company, alleging that fraud and misrepresentation contributed to about 13,000 investors losing $2billion.
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's enforcement division is seeking civil penalties and repayment of whatever gain the Memphis-based investment firm experienced from the alleged fraud, which involved securities backed by subprime mortgages.
Mississippi, Alabama, Kentucky and South Carolina mounted their own probe as their regulatory agencies filed notices of intent to revoke Morgan Keegan's registrations and to impose penalties.
Meanwhile, the Securities Division of Tennessee's Department of Commerce and Insurance notified Morgan Keegan on Wednesday that it also started administrative action.
All the action is civil; no criminal charges are involved.
The states' probe focused on six bond funds sold by Morgan Keegan that drained thousands of investors' funds, especially between March 31, 2007, and March 31, 2008.
The states allege that Morgan Keegan and its Morgan Asset Management:
Omitted and misrepresented information about the funds in marketing materials;
Omitted and misrepresented information in regulatory filings;
Withheld information from, and misrepresented information to, its own sales force;
Gave preferential treatment to some customers;
Recommended customers take on an unsuitable amount of risk in their investments;
Failed to adequately supervise their employees;
And obstructed the due-diligence process.
The states singled out four Morgan Keegan employees and requested that they be barred from the securities industry: James C. Kelsoe Jr., manager of the six funds; Brian B. Sullivan, president and chief investment officer of Morgan Asset Management; Gary S. Stringer, investments director for the firm's Wealth Management Services; and Michele F. Wood, chief compliance officer for the funds and Morgan Asset Management and senior attorney and first vice president of Morgan Keegan.
In a separate action, the SEC alleged that during the first half of 2007, Morgan Keegan, Kelsoe, fund accountant Joseph Thompson "Thom" Weller and Morgan Asset Management fraudulently overstated the value of securities backed by subprime mortgages.
"It's the most insidious fraud possible," said Chicago attorney Andrew Stoltmann, who has represented about 75 Morgan Keegan investors over the past few years. "Clients weren't even able to trust the value of the underlying securities that made up the funds."
The higher the funds appeared to be valued, the easier they were for Kelsoe and Morgan Keegan to sell to investors, he said.
An administrative law judge now has 300 days to make a finding on the SEC allegations.
Morgan Keegan failed to use reasonable procedures to price securities in the funds managed by Morgan Asset and thus didn't calculate accurate "net asset values" for the funds, the SEC charged.
The SEC also alleged that the company was reckless in publishing the inaccurate daily net asset values, selling shares to investors based on the inflated prices.
Morgan Keegan issued a response, saying it strongly disagreed with the agencies' decision to bring charges.
During the challenging market turmoil, Morgan Keegan invested more than $100 million of the firm's capital into shares of two of the hardest-hit funds to provide liquidity for shareholders who wished to sell their fund shares, according to the statement.
"We have always held our obligations to our clients and to our regulators with the utmost seriousness," said James Ritt, general counsel for the company. "In that context, we are deeply disappointed that the agencies and states have chosen to bring these charges.
"The public anger at the near collapse of the nation's financial infrastructure is understandable. However, the actions taken (Wednesday) are misdirected and factually inaccurate. We intend to defend vigorously against these charges."
But Robert Khuzami, director of the SEC's enforcement division, said, "This scheme had two architects -- a portfolio manager (Kelsoe) responsible for the lies to investors about the true value of the assets in his funds, and a head of fund accounting (Weller) who turned a blind eye to the fund's bogus valuation process."
Morgan Keegan, among the nation's largest full-service brokerage and investment banking firms, is owned by Birmingham, Ala.-based Regions Financial Corp.
Morgan Keegan has more than 300 offices in 19 states.
-- Tom Bailey Jr.: 529-2388
Trying to recoup
One of the ways investors in Morgan Keegan's so-called "Kelsoe funds" have tried to get their money back is by filing scores of arbitration cases with the Financial Institution Regulatory Authority.
They basically alleged that Morgan Keegan failed to advise them how risky the investments were, or recommended funds that weren't appropriate, especially for those whose incomes were limited or lacked financial sophistication.
Investors filing claims have ranged from workaday investors to such high-profile clients as baseball great Tim McCarver and retired NFL defensive back Jerome Woods.
Of the 81 arbitration cases that have been heard so far, claims were dismissed in 42 cases, Morgan Keegan's Eric Bran said Wednesday.
"Claimants in these 81 cases have sought approximately $47.9 million in compensatory damages and have received only $8 million in awards," he said. "Additionally, 121 cases seeking more than $39 million in damages have been abandoned by claimants prior to hearing."
But plaintiffs' lawyer Andrew Stoltmann of Chicago predicted the new enforcement action will be a "game changer" in future arbitration.
"Everything we've been alleging in the arbitration claims for two-plus years now has been confirmed by the SEC and (the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority)," Stoltmann said.
