An airline for North County
Startup's founder, 91-year-old Ted Vallas, seeks to fill a niche at Carlsbad airport
Ted Vallas
Position: President and CEO, California Pacific Airlines
Age: 91
Residence: Encinitas, native of New Hampshire
Education: Bachelor's degree and master's in business administration from Balboa University (later renamed California Western University)
Experience and interests: World War II Navy gunner; minor league Padres pitcher; co-founder of General Design Wind Tunnel & Instrumentation; developer of resorts and golf courses; owner of charter airline Air Resorts for 17 years; licensed pilot; involved in several airline industry firms.
Sometime this summer, the first Embraer 170 of California Pacific Airlines will take off from Carlsbad's McClellan-Palomar Airport with a full load of passengers. It will be followed by a second and in a few months a third, and then a fourth.
Eventually CP Air, as its founder likes to call it, will be flying to six destinations, including San Jose, Oakland, Sacramento, Las Vegas, Phoenix and Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.
All this is happening as the airline's founder, Ted Vallas, just turned a spry 91 years old. And he won't be sitting back to watch his airline grow. He plans to be at the controls guiding its growth as he did before with the charter service Air Resorts Airline, El Camino Country Club and the resort now known as Morgan's Run in Rancho Santa Fe, among others.
Like so many of his generation, Vallas came to flying through the military and war, in 1942 flying bombers. Two and a half years ago, when other men might have been trying to hang on to a 12 handicap, Vallas went from golfing three times a week to once and began to build his airline.
Even double knee replacement surgeries have not slowed him. He talks of the day when California Pacific will expand to Canada and Texas and possibly add a second hub to serve Eastern states. And he talks fondly of reviving the glory-days spirit of PSA, the last homegrown airline to launch in San Diego.
Vallas is all too aware that his time is short and talks about leaving the airline as his legacy to North County. But don't sign him off just yet. Vallas ended a recent interview with U-T San Diego with this reflection: "My new knees will do one thing if time catches up with me: I can kick the lid off the casket and keep going."
Here are excerpts from that interview:
Q: You could easily say, "been there, done that," and yet here you are starting up California Pacific Airlines from scratch. Why?
A: The thing that brought this to my attention 2½ years ago was that the (Palomar) airport had just finished a complete renovation here. It became what we call a 139 airport — all of the security, everything that was necessary for scheduled airlines to run out of here.
Well, some 15-16 years ago, I was trying to have a scheduled airline run out of here, other than at Lindbergh Field. When I saw that it was possible now, I jumped back in.
Q: What is the attraction of Palomar Airport and North County?
A: It is a great niche. I call it a niche. It is almost an island. Its size protects competition from coming in with larger aircraft; even though the aircraft we're bringing in here are what you would call pure jet, much more comfortable than even the Southwest aircraft — two-by-two seating and so forth.
And of course we have a 1.3 million population right in our own demographic area in the North County.
So, it is a very good niche, and most of the people living in North County are the upper, let's say businesses and upper-income stream of people. In the 1970s and '80s, we didn't have living in all of San Diego County as many people as we have living in North County today. If they could support PSA at that time, I think they flew something like 17 aircraft, we could surely come in with the latest aircraft in the industry, which is the Embraer 170, and more or less corner the market for North County people.

Dropping the Kenya coffee bomb ... new crop is here.
It's a fantastic day ... the day I get to announce that new crop Kenya coffees have arrived. And we are dropping this Kenya bomb to maximum effect: THREE new auction lot peaberry coffees all at once, heralding in what I think is an epic year of great Kenya coffees. Kenya Nyeri Peaberry -Mutwewathi Factory, a floral cup with apple-apricot compote and pink-grapefruit flavors. Kenya Kirinyaga Peaberry -Gakuyu-ini Factory, a fruit-bomb with complex lemon flavors followed by raisin and grape when it cools. Kenya Kiambu Peaberry -Ndumberi Coop, the cup is a delicate balance between bright fruit and refined sugar, with a pepper accent.

Video: RAW VIDEO: People Arrive For Sandusky Sentencing
Video: RAW VIDEO: Attorneys Speak After Sandusky Sentencing
BELLEFONTE, Pa. (WUSA) -- A judge sentenced former Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky on Tuesday morning to at least 30 years, but not more than 60 years on charges of child sexual abuse. That means the 68-year-old will be in prison until he's almost 100 years old.
Sandusky faced a minimum of 10 years in prison to a maximum sentence of more than 218 years.
Tuesday's sentencing hearing began at 9 a.m. and Sandusky arrived shortly before that time.
A total of 85 seats were set aside in the courtroom for members of the public. Andrea McCarren reported that dozens of spectators were in line at 8 a.m. to get into the courthouse.
Three victims were in court and one testified via a statement about depression, nightmares, embarrassment, and guilt after the sex assaults by Sandusky. Their families also struggled. A mother of one of the victims testified on Tuesday, saying, "He lost weight, sick a lot, didn't sleep, had trouble at school. I couldn't understand. I thought it was my fault."
A victim told the judge before the sentence was read, "I hope you take into account the tears, pain and private anguish I, and others, have suffered."
During the sentencing hearing on Tuesday, the judge told the victims, "It is for your courage and not for your assault that you will be remembered." He added, "No cause for embarrassment or shame. His conduct is no fault of your own. As adults, you held him accountable."
Sandusky maintained his innocence following his conviction earlier this year on 45 counts of child sex abuse. He continued to maintain his innocence on Tuesday and although he didn't appear to show any emotion while the sentencing was read, he did break down in tears while he testified.
"I'm filled with emotion, determination. I didn't do these alleged disgusting acts," stated Sandusky.
He plans to appeal. "We will continue to fight. There's much to fight... Those who still believe in us are the ones who matter," he said.
He added, "My wife has been my only sex partner. And that after marriage... I tried to bring joy. I tried to make people laugh."
Victims of Sandusky also testified on Tuesday. One victim stated that he couldn't forget the night "you said you were 'the tickle monster' so you could touch my 11-year-old body."
Another victim who was assaulted in the shower said to Sandusky, "I realize just how much you manipulated me... to get me to think what you were doing was okay."
Some expressed the difficulty processing what happened to them as children. "He called it 'horse play' and only later did I understand this was sex assault...[I'm] troubled by flashbacks of his naked body," shared one victim on Tuesday.
Another victim told the court, "It is real, painful and will be inside me forever as an open wound. He took away my childhood the day he assaulted me."
There was also a glimmer of anger. A victim said, "You were the person in my life supposed to be a role model... You should be ashamed of yourself."
A victim said directly to Sandusky, "I want you to know I don't forgive you... I grew up in a bad situation and you made things worse."

After her third round 6-3, 6-4 defeat of Italian Roberta Vinci at Wimbledon today Serena Williams was asked about the sudden death of Michael Jackson, someone she had met numerous times and knew:
Q. What did Michael Jackson mean to you personally? Would you think about dedicating today's victory perhaps?
SERENA WILLIAMS: No, I mean, he was a great guy, a complete icon. Words can't express my shock and horror, you know, just thoughts and prayers that go out to him and his family and just everything. It's just terrible, terrible, terrible thing.
Q. Did you listen to his music much? Were you a fan?
SERENA WILLIAMS: Well, I think Michael Jackson, everyone listens to his music. It's like you think of the Beatles, you think of Elvis Presley, you think of Michael Jackson, those are just lifetime icons that I've never forgotten. The things that he did was beyond iconic.
Q. Did you know Michael Jackson at all? Ever meet him?
SERENA WILLIAMS: I've met him a few times. I was honored to meet him. You know, everything. He had such a great heart and wonderful kids. You know, it's just really a shame.
Q. It happened quite late last night. Did you get the news last night or was it this morning?
SERENA WILLIAMS: No, I mean, I'm always online. I'm always looking at the latest news up until I fall asleep, so I saw it fairly early.
Q. Michael Jackson obviously is one of the greatest celebrities in the world culture. Can you talk about the whole phenomena of celebrity, living your life as a celebrity? Is it all upside and glamour? Are there downsides? How do you deal with that?
SERENA WILLIAMS: Well, I think he was an ultimate celebrity. I think any celebrity who met Michael Jackson was completely awe. I know I was. I kept thinking, Oh, my God, oh, my God. It's him, it's him. So for me he was the celebrity of all celebrities. To be in that position, I can't imagine. Since he was a child, he has always been Michael Jackson. He's always been famous and he's always been, you know, a celebrity. And he's never really had a different life.
Q. Are there parallels between that and you and your sister at all, in the fact that you started so young?
SERENA WILLIAMS: Yeah, uhm, I wouldn't even mention my name and his in the same sentence at all.
Q. Are you a little bit in shock of the news?
SERENA WILLIAMS: I mean, like I said, I'm always online. I've been following him. He's really not been well from what I read. He's been in and out of the hospital. So I wasn't super shocked. But, I mean, it's Michael Jackson. He's just the greatest entertainer for me of all time.
Q. What do you think the one quality he had that just projected him to this great stardom?
SERENA WILLIAMS: Innovation. He did things that no one else did. Like Thriller is the best video ever made still to this day. The videos that he did for his songs, no one had ever even went that far. And he started a whole new trend with that. Dances, singing, beats, you know, everything.
Q. Can you moonwalk?
SERENA WILLIAMS: No, not at all.
Q. When you were talking about Michael Jackson, his iconic status, is that a status within the black community, or is that beyond that?
SERENA WILLIAMS: Oh, I mean, Michael Jackson goes way beyond the black community. I mean, everyone of every color, every nation, every race, you know, is Michael Jackson fans. The guy literally couldn't walk the streets. Even though I met him, knew him, if I would have saw him on the streets, I still would have been like, AHHH. He is just iconic on all levels.
Q. Have you got one favorite song?
SERENA WILLIAMS: I do. I don't remember the name of it, though. It's a slower one. It's a slower one. It's a duet with someone. I don't remember.
Whatever you thought about his personal life and controversies, one thing is for sure: he was a musical pioneer, and his songs and performances had an indelible impact on pop culture and people's lives, including my own.
UPDATE: Roger Federer was also asked about his thoughts on the passing of MJ:
Q. Where were you and what were your immediate thoughts when you heard the news that Michael Jackson had died?
ROGER FEDERER: I was at the house late last night. Obviously, you know, I love his music. It wasn't clear, you know, what had happened, you know. So I waited for sort of to see what's gonna happen and the confirmation.
Sure, a very sad moment I think in the music world. You know, he touched many people. Same for me. But I'll obviously still listen to his music for many more years to come.
Q. What do you consider the aspect that you appreciate the most of his performances?
ROGER FEDERER: Well, I remember, I don't know, back maybe in '88 or '89, he came to Basel. I was outside of the stadium, because there was such excitement that he would come. I was still very young. I think I went there with my sister, and we just listened from the outside, you know.
Yeah, always listened to his music. And, yeah, it's sad. You know, it really is.

Arriving at Barden University, she finds herself not right for any clique but is somehow muscled into one she would never have picked on her own - alongside mean girls, sweet girls and weird girls with nothing in common except how good they sound when they sing together. When Beca takes this acoustic singing group out of their world of traditional arrangements and perfect harmonies into all-new mash-ups, they fight to climb their way to the top of the cutthroat world of college music competitions.

You may or may not remember that we sent out a notification back in April about changes in the way IBM Sametime interoperates with AOL's AIM public IM service. Those changes are effective on January 1, 2015, and I think it's important to remind everyone that this is coming and to go over the changes so you all know what to expect.
AOL is taking over the onboarding and provisioning process to set up interoperability with AIM. This means you will need to sign a commercial agreement with AOL to maintain your connectivity beyond December 31, 2014. We recommend that you contact AOL immediately to start the process. They have set up a Web site for that purpose:
If your users need to communicate with AIM users after December 31, 2014, you need to register your Sametime domain with AOL. You don't have to do anything to your Sametime deployment (this change does not impact the Sametime Gateway in any way) but you need to go through the process with AOL so they can enable their infrastructure to interoperate with your Sametime environment.
You also need to be aware that there is a license fee for maintaining direct federation with AOL. After you send a provisioning request through their website AOL will send you a quote for the service.
AOL needs to complete all on boarding requests by the end of the year. They will start deprovisioning on January 5, 2015 for those companies that do not reach out to them before December 31, 2014.

Head-to-head: 6 Fed, 10 Rafa
Last meeting: Masters Series Hamburg '08, Rafa 7-5, 6-7(3), 6-3
What's there left to say about this matchup? Well, in their 17th career meeting and third straight Roland Garros final, top seed Roger Federer will try to end all talk of GOAT with a resounding win over 3-time defending champion Rafael Nadal, who's undefeated at this major. To add spice to the mix, 6-time French Open champ Bjorn Borg publicly declared "[Federer] definitely will be the greatest player ever to play the game" if he captures the crown. I'm already out of breath.
How they got here: Fed displayed true grit and intesity in taking out a feisty Gael Monfils 6-2, 5-7, 6-3, 7-5. Though nowhere near his best, the world no. 1's stats were impressive with 87 winners against 30 errors, 71% first serve success, and converting 7 of 15 break chances. The marquee matchup on the men's side became more of a mismatch as Rafa taught Novak Djokovic a few things about clay-court tennis. The Spaniard dominated from all parts of the court hitting a ridiculous 66 winners against 16 errors in his 6-4, 6-2, 7-6 (3) win. Gawdy.
Fed + Rafa just met last month at the Master Series Hamburg where the Mallorcan Matador snatched the title away 7-5, 6-7(3), 6-3 from the 4-time defending champion.
Here's what the Swiss had to say about playing Rafa:
Rafa had this to say about another battle with the world no. 1:
He is not the kind of guy you can expect surprises from, because he's a top player, plays very well. He can play for very long matches. I know what to expect, so it's difficult on the one hand, and it's good on the other.
You know, in the past I was always trying to find a key of the match to win, and in the past I was less aggressive. He always played in the same way, so this is why I think I can surprise him more than he can surprise me.
Outlook: Although I felt before Roland Garros started that Fed had a decent chance to complete his career Slam by winning in Sunday's final, my mind changed after seeing Rafa's sublime display of clay-court tennis over these two weeks. The 22-year old's use of the whole court - hard groundies into the corners, angled shotmaking, drop shots and smart approaches to the net - has me convinced that only a monumental effort from Fed will topple the defending champ from his throne this year.
When you play against Roger you can't imagine anything. He's a very complete player. He has all the shots, so everything can do. But I expect a very tough match, and for sure I think he going to try to play aggressiveEach of us has tried to improve what he needs to improve, and most of the time people from the outside can't see that. But he is probably trying new things. He is trying new things and trying to go beyond what he usually does, but it's difficult to assess from the outside.
The world no. 1 will need to throw everything, including the kichen sink, at the Spaniard and hope he's also having an off day. I don't see that happening. What do I see? Rafa's fourth consecutive Roland Garros crown.
Here's a video of Fed + Rafa in their post-match pressers talking about Sunday's big match:

The IRS deadline of April 18th is coming soon. File fast, for FREE with TurboTax Federal Free Edition.
Earlier this week, actor Kal Penn put himself in the line of fire.
A federal judge had ruled that the Stop and Frisk Policy was unconstitutional and called for the New York Police Department to create a policy specifying where stops would be authorized. Many people fear that the Stop and Frisk policy would simply create an opportunity for racism, but Kal Penn seemed to disagree.
Penn shared a New York Post op/ed which argued for the benefits of the policy:
Needless to say, the public was outraged and saddened by this support. Tensions rose further when Penn responded to a particular statement concerning the Black and Latino community.
After days of enduring the public outrage, Kal Penn decided to speak up and share his side of the story:
"Twitter is great for communicating with fans, and for hearing new perspectives. Twitter sucks when you're trying to explain your views on something complicated and nuanced that needs more than 140 characters. Or so I've learned.
Obviously, I am not a constitutional lawyer (and have never played one on TV). These days I tweet mostly about tacos and acting, but on Tuesday, I tweeted a link to Mayor Bloomberg's op/ed on the "stop & frisk" decision, and in a matter of minutes I became a racist asshole who deserves to eeaaaat shiiiiiiiit. Huh?…"

I work for a company which has zimbra server. We have had several problems of e-mails not delivered (both bounced and deferred). I'd like to know if there is some way to set a not delivered e-mail notification for both, administrator and sender and for both deferred and bounced.
I'm told the deferred emails wait for 4 days until being bounced. I would like to be notified right after the email is deferred, cause 4 days later is too late.
I am not the actually zimbra administrator, but i have to make the bridge between the company i work for and the zimbra administrator to save time and money .
Of course I can read the log, but it takes too much time.

Clinical research involves children and adults who volunteer to participate in specific research studies. These studies are performed under strict guidelines in order to determine how a disease affects the body (clinical research) or to measure the safety or effectiveness of a medical treatment or other intervention (clinical trials).
Clinical research studies seek to answer specific questions. For instance, why are people with atopic dermatitis more prone to skin infections than people without atopic dermatitis? Some clinical research studies focus on the quality of life people experience, while clinical trials may compare the effectiveness of a particular drug to another drug or intervention or to no treatment.
Clinical trials (studies that test a new intervention) as well as mechanistic studies that do not test an intervention, help to advance the concept of "personalized medicine," which is treatment based on the individual makeup of each person. This approach to healthcare encourages early diagnosis and treatment of diseases prior to the onset of symptoms by studying biomarkers and genes. National Jewish Health continues its world leadership in this cutting-edge gene and biomarker field of medical research.
Clinical trials that test medications are conducted in phases.
Before becoming involved in any type of clinical research, interested participants are counseled on the risks and benefits of study participation. Participants give their informed consent and can withdraw from a study at any time. The level and quality of care they receive will not be influenced by a decision to withdraw.
Clinical research presents you with an opportunity to gain access to new medical interventions, to possibly take a more active role in your healthcare, and to help others by contributing to medical knowledge. Chances are you or someone you know may be alive today thanks to people who have participated in clinical research.
All clinical research studies have a series of requirements that must be met; these are known as inclusion/exclusion criteria. Inclusion criteria allow certain persons to participate, while exclusion criteria are what prevent persons from participating. These criteria most often include age, gender, the type and stage of an illness, previous treatment history, and other medical conditions. All of these criteria are not meant to exclude people personally; rather, they are to identify the most appropriate people who are needed for the study (for example, healthy people versus people with an illness the study intervention intends to treat).
Before deciding to participate, you will meet with the healthcare team to ask questions so that you can better understand the study. Here are some example questions:
Depending on the type of research study being conducted, the process itself may vary. You will participate under the guidance of doctors, nurses, social workers, and other healthcare professionals. They will explain the study guidelines and monitor your health. Some studies may ask permission to stay in touch with you after the study has been completed.
The length of time varies depending on the nature of the study. Clinical research studies involving a new type of therapy or medication typically require more testing and office visits than a person might normally expect for a condition or illness. This is to protect your health and to obtain data needed to determine the effectiveness of the intervention.
Clinical research participants may choose to withdraw from a study at any time. The level and quality of care they receive will not be influenced by a decision to withdraw.
At National Jewish Health, you will have access to some of the best researchers, physicians, and clinical care staff in the nation. As they work to advance the science of medicine, you will play an active part if you choose to participate as a clinical research study volunteer.
You may receive medications or other treatment options as part of the study and discuss how your body feels in response to them. You may not be asked to test any intervention, but instead asked to provide blood samples or other specimens for testing specific to your disease. In all cases, you may be compensated for your time, and participation may play a role in treatment discoveries, cures, and preventions for many diseases and conditions.
The discoveries made in the laboratories at National Jewish Health have a profound impact on the understanding and treatment of human disease.

1970 Chevy Chevelle - Cheap Street Chevelle: InteriorWritten by on April 29, 2004 The best way to enjoy a musclecar is to drive it.
The best way to enjoy a musclecar is to drive it. That's right--plant your butt in the driver's seat, twist the ignition key to bring life to the healthy street/strip engine, and then drive to your cruise spot in style. But if your butt is resting on a torn-up seat with springs poking out, then the journey to the local cruise-in will be less than enjoyable. Moreover, a musclecar with a shabby-looking headliner and filthy carpet will do nothing to impress fellow gearheads as they check out your car.
Cheap Street Chevelle was shabby from the day CC purchased it in 1994. But over the last few years, it's been fitted with a new engine, transmission, and suspension. Outside, the car received the full make-over, including some new body panels and a fresh paint job. Yet the Chevelle still had a ratty interior, complete with torn-up seats, no headliner, and trashed-out door panels. We wanted to make the interior look as good as the exterior, but we didn't want to install a custom-stitched interior. Moreover, we were working on a budget, so the interior redo needed to be as low-buck as possible. Thus, we turned to Original Parts Group, which offers presewn interior kits for a variety of GM cars, including Chevelles, El Caminos, Monte Carlos, GTOs, Tempests, and LeMans. The OPG kits (ours was the basic Stage I kit that costs about $470) can be custom-tailored to fit the needs of your musclecar. Whether you only need a new carpet set and door panels or an entire interior kit, OPG is your one-stop shop for the goods you need to restore your musclecar's interior. Follow along as Mike Ambrose Custom Interiors installs the new OPG interior kit for Project Cheap Street Chevelle.
Headliner And Package Tray

Project Cheap Street Chevelle's interior was totally trashed, so we ordered a complete, new interior kit (PN IK02BK) from Original Parts Group. Our OPG kit included new presewn seat covers for the Chevelle's front and rear bench seats, new front and rear door panels, new carpet, a headliner, and a rear package tray. All of the OPG interior parts match the original specs exactly, so they look great and fit perfectly. Although we opted for black, the interior items can be ordered in a variety of colors and styles (such as for bucket seats) to fit almost any demand.Begin your interior restoration by removing the torn-up seats, the old door panels, the ratty carpet, and the faded rear package tray. Because our Chevelle had a six-point rollbar, we needed to remove the seatbacks from the front seats first to be able to remove the bench seat from the car.The seat cover is held in place with dozens of small hog-ring clips. From the underside of the seat, pry off the hog rings using a pair of needle-nose pliers. Afterward, the seat cover can be pulled off. Our old seat cover was so tattered that it came off in pieces.The original seat-cushion material was in decent shape overall, but it was tattered on the top and side edges. Thus, a new layer of foam padding was added to the top of the seat cushion to restore the cushy feel to the seat. Position the padding, trim it to size, and then stick it to the top side of the old seat cushion using spray-on adhesive.Position the new seat cover on the seat, making sure it is properly aligned with the outer edges of the seat. Once aligned, stretch the edges of the cover over the edges of the seat. The new material will be a tight fit as compared to the stretched and tattered seat cover that was removed.After the new seat cover is on and properly aligned, flip the seat over and begin installing the hog-ring retaining clips. Along the outer edges of the seat track are dozens of oval tangs to which the hog rings fasten. Poke one end of the hog ring through the outer edge of the seat-cover material, and position the other end of the hog ring at the outer edge of the tang. Use a pair of pliers to crimp the ring together. With the dozens of hog rings in place, the new seat cover will be securely held to the seat frame.The seatbacks for the front bench seat (as well as the upper and lower parts of the rear seat) are installed just like the front-seat bottom. Simply remove the old cover(s), slip on the new seat cover(s), and fasten the material in place with the crimp-on hog rings.The carpet kit from OPG is super easy to install, thanks to it being molded to fit the floorboard of your musclecar. Align the carpet so that the molded portions fit over the driveshaft tunnel in the center of the car. Notice that the OPG carpet has new padding added to its backside, which not only adds cushion but quells road noise and exhaust heat as well.
After the carpet has been aligned and trimmed as needed, pull back the outer edges, and apply a coating of spray-on adhesive.Cheap Street Chevelle's door panels were tattered and faded, so they were replaced. To remove the panels, remove the window regulator cranks, the armrest pads, and a series of small screws at the base of the door panel. In addition, use a flat-blade screwdriver to pry out the small push-in retaining clips located at the front and rear door-panel edges (arrows).Cheap Street Chevelle's door panels were tattered and faded, so they were replaced. To remove the panels, remove the window regulator cranks, the armrest pads, and a series of small screws at the base of the door panel. In addition, use a flat-blade screwdriver to pry out the small push-in retaining clips located at the front and rear door-panel edges (arrows).After the upper retaining panel is held in place with a few rivets (arrow), the door panel's padding was glued into place using some spray-on adhesive.After the padding is glued in place, use a razor to trim off the extra padding material that hangs over the edge of the metal mounting bracket.Apply some spray-on adhesive to the backside of the actual door-panel material. Then, position it over the edge of the metal strip so that it sits flush and has no wrinkles.The inside of the new door panels have small openings in the outer edges of the cardboard panels, which are used to mount the push-in retaining clips. Wedge the clips onto the door panel making sure not to poke through the door-panel material.Position the new door-panel assembly on the door the same way as the original unit fit. The outer door panel clips push into small holes (arrows) in the door itself.
In the rear, besides the upper door panel, our '70 Chevelle used a lower panel constructed of plastic. The original plastic panels were completely destroyed and unusable. Making a new panel would be difficult, but thanks to the great reproductions offered by OPG, we had our Chevelle looking new in no time.Installing a new rear package tray is easy. Simply align it so that it sits flat, and its edges align with the outer contours of the inner body panels. Because our Chevelle had a rollbar that went through the package tray, we needed to trim the front edge of the new package tray so that it cleared the rollbar tubing.Our original headliner was not only trashed out, but it was nearly nonexistent. A few ladies' hair clips were used to hold up parts of the stock headliner so that it wouldn't fall down and block the windshield--definitely bogus!The remnants of the stock headliner were removed, and then the headliner mounting rods were taken out. Then, the mounting rods were slipped into the sewn-in passages in the new headliner. Starting at the rear, the headliner was properly positioned, and then the rods were clipped into the mounting holes in the roof.The headliner mounting rods slip into small holes in the roof. Getting the rods into the mounting holes is a tight fit, but once in position, they hold the center of the headliner in place and prevent it from falling down.The side edges of the headliner are held in position with stock push-on plastic trim pieces. However, the front and rear portions of the headliner need to be glued in position with spray-on adhesive. Afterward, press-on plastic trim pieces cover the front and rear edges of the headliner.The rear sail panels cover the inner roof structure where the roof meets the package tray. New headliner material is glued onto the old cardboard panel, and then the sail panel is installed.After the carpet, the headliner, and the rear package tray are installed, reinstall the upper and lower portions of the rear seat. Be careful not to scratch up or tear the new interior pieces with the sharp metal mounting brackets on the underside of the seats. Because our Chevelle had a rollbar, seat installation was tricky, which meant we needed to work slowly.
After our new Original Parts Group interior was installed, we fitted a new Kidde fire extinguisher that used a no-drill mounting bracket. The extinguisher will be at arms reach in the event of a fire. The Kidde extinguisher features a special dry chemical that extinguishes A-, B-, and C-type fire conditions--perfect for use with a street machine.

March 29, 2013
Lowndes County, GA -
A fire destroyed a Lowndes County home, car and barn on Thursday afternoon.
The fire at 3566 Kay Circle allegedly started from a burning pile of wood on the lawn. It likely spread because of the wind. Five Lowndes County fire trucks responded. Firefighters had to use chainsaws to gain entry into the property. They eventually put it out around 6PM.
Lowndes County Clerk Paige Dukes said "you must have a burn permit under any circumstances to burn yard debris. And then you also need to make sure that, you know, again that you're being smart about the conditions. If there is wind blowing at all or if you plan to burn near a structure it's just not a good idea."
The homeowner, Billy Bradley, was away from the home at the time of the fire. There were no injuries.

I don't mean Episode 1, I don't even really mean The Empire Strikes back and the Return of the Jedi (although I did see them both at the cinema). To me the ultimate Jedi is old Ben Kenobi.

I ran into the following problem when using the Calendar with the web interface on Zimbra 6:
1) Created a meeting for Dec 17, recurring monthly
2) Decided the 17th wouldn't work, so I edited that "series" and changed it to the 9th
3) Noticed that my Dec. 17th meeting was left on my calendar unaffected, and a non-repeating event was placed on Dec 9th.
Bob, someone invited to the meeting, wrote me to say he never got any invites for Dec. 9th, but it is showing up properly on his calendar on the 9th. All my invitess received numerous invites for the event, as if Zimbra was sending out updates for each change I made, not sending them only when I clicked save. Bob also noted that the times in the emails he received were all 1 hour off, but they displayed at the right times in his calendar. Further more, Bob also told me that he got two different types of invites:
- Two messages that had complete meeting details in the body; no accept/decline mechanism; and if I tried to reply to the message, none of the meeting details from the body appeared in the reply body.
- Two messages that had nothing in the body; a visible accept/decline mechanism; and if I replied to the message, the complete details of the meeting were in the reply body. (So the only way I could find out the date/time of the meeting in order to inform my accept/decline action was to reply to the invite and check the body of the reply.)

schadenfreude is on the menu
bon appetit
Jackson wanted to humiliate Lakers vice president Jim Buss far more than he wanted to coach the team. He wanted significant allowances on travel, coaching duties and an ability to veto player personnel moves that didn't fit his vision. With an unprecedented 11 coaching championships, Jackson had every right to make unprecedented demands. He doesn't have the right to be surprised when the Lakers rejected them and hired a pliable, cheaper coach in Mike D'Antoni.
"Phil wanted Jim Buss to walk away with his tail between his legs," one source with knowledge of the discussions told Yahoo! Sports. "He thought he had time to still negotiate with them, and see how much they would give him."
Now, the Lakers are going out of their way to spare Jackson the embarrassment of his overreaching, but this is pointless spin. They're working with him to sell the public that he hadn't asked for too much, that somehow the franchise chose D'Antoni over Jackson on sheer merit. It's noble, but laughable. Jackson heard those chants in the Staples Center and never believed the Lakers had the guts to call his bluff before circling back to him on Monday.

Hi all, I've just finished installing Zimbra and I wonder if there's an option for a single user (let's say "secretary") to manage different users' calendars (boss-calendar, ceo-calendar, etc.).
I mean, it would be great for user "secretary" to be able to manage "ceo" appointments, without being involved in the appointments themselves (and, obviously, without logging-in as "ceo").
Is it possible ? If so, pls help me explaining how ...
Thanks a lot,

This stinks...but...
Last night was clearly one of his worst games as a Cyclone. I'm not sure if it was the worst, but close.
He completed 60.8% of his passes. Not great, yet not horrible. The turnovers though, were very costly. As I recall, both were passes right-to-left, intended for Barkema. Both times the passes came late plus Ben didn't come back for the ball.
The fumble was a bad snap yet it didn't seem like Meyer really hustled for it.
Some of the incompletions were just bad. Overthrowing and something new - underthrowing open receivers. And, on the longer completed pass to Sumrall, if Meyer had not thrown the thing so late, R.J. would've had a least 10 more yards - if not a TD.
In general, Bret looked like a freshman out there. Throwing off his back foot, indecisive with the ball, skiddish, etc. I have no doubt that physically Bret is a good QB. Mentally though, I think 2006 really took a toll on him. And, the last 2 games of '05 weren't great either. Meyer had really one solid performance last season (UNI, 2nd half) and in reality, just a few from '05.
ESPN.com - Meyer Stats
I think we, myself included, have an inflated view of what Bret Meyer is as a QB.
Another thing I noticed, and I could be reading WAY too much into this. After the 2nd interception, in which Meyer made the tackle - he was on the sideline on his back for a little bit. Some of our guys were near him, yet as soon as they noticed he made the tackle, they turned around and walked back to the sidelines. Not a single person helped our starting QB to his feet. It really surprised me and I can honestly say - I wasn't pleased to see that.
I said in the spring I really liked Arnaud. He's more fundamentally sound than Bret, just lacked the experience/decision making. From what I saw last night, our starter isn't so hot at those two things right now.
I was slightly, stress slightly, surprised Chizik didn't give Arnaud a shot late in the game. I agree with the decision, yet wouldn't have disagreed with #4 coming in.
I do firmly believe, if Bret struggles early vs. UNI, we'll see Arnaud on the field.
It really pains me to say that, but something needs to be done. Meyer wasn't the reason we lost last night, a team effort. But the QB position wasn't really helping us last night either.
It pains me as well, but thank you, it needed to be said. However, he's still our number one, he deserves another chance. It's his opportunity to take, once again. I hope you're right about the "best man will play" mentality.
Well said 22...
I don't want to throw him under the bus, but he didn't help things any. No fire.. No leadership.. No urgency..
He seriously reminds me of Drew Tate. Peaked about Sophmore year then seriously regress. Its too bad. Two years ago he has a shot at the pros. Now he might be lucky to stay the starter all year.
Bellzisu is aka Chris Bellcock. Just so I'm not anonymous anymore.
Honestly, I think this is the same Meyer from last year and the year before. The O-Line hasn't ALWAYS been the problem and now we know why. His balls have no zip or accuracy. Blythe was wide open, but yet had to jump and just barely get one foot in to get that TD. I think Arnuad will be soon arising.
"You must try to generate happiness within yourself. If you aren't happy in one place, chances are you won't be happy anyplace." -- Ernie Banks
I really want to see the Meyer back that put this team on his back and led us to victory his freshman year in that bowl game vs. Miami (OH).
That game, I think - really inflated what we thought we'd see from him in the future.
But when you look at it, in that game he completed a meager 35% of his passes. It was his legs (23 for 122 yards) that won it for us. Since then he's been inconsistent at running at the right time and being decisive with it.
Only 8 times in his career has be been in the 100's for QB rating. For a college QB, that's not that hard to do.
I'm not piling on Bret, I'm just finally realizing - he's not the QB I thought he was. He's always, for the most part - been the same guy. In the past, weaker opponents and a surrounding cast "carried" him. Not happening anymore...
Bench him for a bit, nothing more than a few series, but that will put the message out there that you have to perform. I am not saying Arnaud is the greatest player ever, I am not going to be a hawk fan. But sometimes you gotta shake it up.
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. - Benjamin Franklin 1775
I think he peaked two seasons....hopefully I get proved wrong.
Last night I think Bret neither did better or worse than I expected. It was a pretty standard Bret game. Things can only go up from here.
I want to see Arnaud in the UNI game, just to get his feet wet. Let's see if this kid can produce and execute. This doesn't mean have him start or play a whole quarter or half. I just want to see a spark and fire from this offense and if a redshirt frosh can do it, by all means I want him.

I share similar thoughts.
Meyer is in his 4th year of actively playing QB. By now, he either "gets it" or he doesn't. At this stage, there's no point hanging on and hoping for magical improvement or that some kind of metamorphasis is going to happen one night. If Meyer can't cut it, time to move on and see if the next guy has what it takes.

Remember when we played Missouri that time when Chase Daniel came in and won the game in a come back victory. I forget who the QB was that got injured(Brad Smith?), but he was supposed to have a lot of talent and experience. But Daniel was the one who brought them back and won after they were forced to try something new. I hope that this staff does do what they say and let the best player play or at least try something different.

If that was standard we are in trouble.
Im just going off of last year. Three step drops that turn into holding the ball 5 seconds before scrambling. Weak throws. Inability to run to the left and throw (two picks last night) Ability to hit some nice safe outs and wide open come backers to Blythe. Average speed.
If anyone has seen anything in his career otherwise I might have just missed it.
If nothing else, we should start to get Arnaud some playing time as leg4cy said. I really would like to see Meyer succeed, but that was ugly. Looking at that stats from yahoo as it went on, as I didn't see the game, at one point Meyer was 12-15 with the one pick. Then he couldn't seem to complete anything. Was Kent State's defense that good?
on one hand i want to say it's a new coach, new system, he's got experience, on the other hand i want to see what arnaud can do. after all, new coach new system, give him 4 years to run the show.

During this month, we raise awareness about the risks for heart disease as well as healthy lifestyle changes that can reduce cardiovascular risks and promote healthy hearts.
Given that February is dedicated to celebrating love, caring, and heart health, it's a great time to improve your own heart health or encourage loved ones to improve theirs by quitting smoking. About 130,000 cardiovascular disease deaths per year in the United States are attributable to smoking. Also, approximately 26% of heart attacks and 12–19% of strokes are attributable to smoking. The Surgeon General has concluded that cigarette smoking greatly increases one's risk for heart disease. Being smoke-free and eliminating exposure to secondhand smoke is important to heart health.
Quitting smoking could be the best Valentine's Day present you can give to your family or your loved ones.
Smoking and Heart Health
When you smoke or are exposed to secondhand smoke, cells that line your body's blood vessels react to the poisons in tobacco smoke almost immediately. Your heart rate and blood pressure go up. Your blood vessels grow narrower. Chemical changes caused by tobacco smoke also make blood more likely to clot. Clots can form and block blood flow to your heart.
Smoking is one cause of dangerous plaque buildup inside your arteries. Plaque clogs and narrows your arteries. This can trigger chest pain, weakness, heart attack, or stroke. Plaque can rupture and cause clots that block arteries. Completely blocked arteries can cause sudden death. Smoking is not the only cause of these problems, but it makes them much worse.
Secondhand Smoke and Heart Health
Tobacco smoke hurts anyone who breathes it. When you breathe secondhand smoke, platelets in your blood get sticky and may form clots, just like in a person who smokes. Research shows that even spending time in a smoky room could trigger a heart attack. There is no risk-free level of exposure to secondhand smoke. Even brief exposure can be harmful to your health, especially if you are at risk for heart disease.
Quitting Saves Lives
You have years of life to gain and love to give by quitting smoking. Your risk for heart attack drops sharply just 1 year after you quit smoking. In fact, even if you've already had a heart attack, you cut your risk of having another one by a third to a half if you quit smoking. And because secondhand smoke also affects others and can increase their risk for heart attack and death, quitting smoking can help protect your loved ones. Make an effort during this heartfelt holiday to stop smoking and/or to encourage your loved ones to stop smoking.
Support to Quit
For free quit support, call 1-800-QUIT-NOW (1-800-784-8669). This service provides free support and advice from experienced counselors, a personalized quit plan, self-help materials, the latest information about cessation medications, and more.
Send a Smoke-Free Valentine
Millions of greeting cards are sent each year on and around Valentine's Day to express love and care. This year, use Valentine's Day to promote a smoke-free, healthy heart. Send one of the following e-cards to your loved ones who smoke.

|Man in custody after semi-trailer theft in Lamar, Neb.
|Written by Holyoke Enterprise
By Jan Schultz
The Imperial Republican
A report to the Chase County, Neb. Sheriff's Office regarding the unlawful use of a semi-truck and trailer last month has led to a number of charges against an alleged thief.
Justin Lundgren, 33, was arrested by Haxtun police on Saturday, Feb. 21 on warrants from Chase County that charge him with felony burglary and two counts of criminal mischief.
John Arterburn of Imperial, Neb. contacted the Chase County Sheriff's Office in Imperial Jan. 20 with a report that his semi truck and trailer may have been stolen.
The semi and trailer had been parked inside his locked shop building in Lamar, Neb., but it was discovered parked outside on Jan. 20, said Chase County Deputy Bill Whitlow.
Arterburn also discovered that the semi's transmission had been damaged and he believed about a quarter tank of fuel had been burned, Whitlow said.
After Whitlow had gone to the scene and investigated, they found burglars had gained entry on the east side of the building.
Further investigation led to the discovery of a theft of wheat in the Phillips County area, Whitlow said. Then, a description that matched photos of Arterburn's semi-trailer was confirmed by employees at Yuma County Grain, who reported the truck had delivered a large load of wheat there, Whitlow said.
Lundgren was turned over to the Phillips County Sheriff's Department by the Haxtun police, and he was jailed in Yuma County on a bond of $100,000. He was to be transferred back to Chase County Tuesday, Feb. 24.
The Chase County charges against him are for class 3 felony burglary, felony criminal mischief and one count of misdemeanor criminal mischief.
Deputy District Attorney Elizabeth Sexton of Sterling said Tuesday an investigation is ongoing with this case.
Phillips County also has additional charges against Lundgren from an unrelated incident Dec. 23, 2008, at a family home in Haxtun, according to a Phillips County deputy.
Those include assault against the elderly, felony firearm possession, theft of a financial transaction device (credit card) and felony menacing.
Lundgren's address on his driver's license lists Haxtun, but Phillips County authorities said that is not his residence.

Professor Lawrence Lessig reports on a ruling that protects "open source licenses." The opinion was rendered by the US Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (they have the final say on US Intellectual Property disputes). The the provisions outlined by the Artistic License were upheld as legally binding.
The precedent set here should also protect other open licenses (GPL, Creative Commons, BSD, etc). The case is a nice legal affirmation of the values we've all been putting into our free and openly licensed works for so long!

Hello everyone. I'm trying to move our company from a lot of individual Eudora "local" installs to a centralized e-mail server with web mail capabilities. Zimbra looks fantastic but appears not to be for the technically faint at heart
I've managed, with quite a lot of trial an error, to get a Zimbra server running on Ubuntu 6.10. I'm now trying to test migrating existing Eudora mail into Zimbra. I've found several threads on various forums and so far my process has been:
1) Configure an IMAP e-mail account in Eudora pointed at the appropriate mailbox on the Zimbra server.
2) Append "/tb" to the user name (not sure what this does technically and it's supposedly targeted at Thunderbird migrations but without it I can't see any of the folders via IMAP in Eudora).
3) Create directories via the Zimbra web mail front end (if I create them in Eudora and sync up they just disappear).
4) Copy mail in Eudora from local mailboxes to the Zimbra account mailboxes.
My problems are thus:
* The initial connection to an empty Zimbra folder in Eudora takes around 5 minutes (it hangs Eudora with a pop-up box that it's opening the folder).
* After copying messages it's sporadic getting them to transfer to Zimbra - sometimes messages just disappear after the sync, other messages sit in the Eudora folder but never show up in the Zimbra folder even after repeated sync attempts.
* Messages that do transfer over are often HTML but are not shown as HTML in the Zimbra web mail front end. A lot of the Eudora messages have an extra tag (<x-html></x-html>) around the HTML tags which I thought was the culprit but I've found several e-mails which don't appear to have these and they still show up as plain text (i.e., you can see all the HTML tags spelled out).
Has anyone here migrated from Eudora or have some insight into this process that could make it easier and more reliable?

...... I figured however that it would need some kind of background music and that's where I got stuck. I just cannot figure out what would be the best fit. Something British from the 50's, something contemporary or something Indian perhaps? The more I thought about it, the more I got lost in the subject. Now, I'm not even sure about the genre.HEEEEEELP! Do you have any idea?Thanks, Gabor
There are probably a lot of good songs, but you have got to listen to the instrumentals of an old rock legend named Link Wray. Especially "The Rumble" and "Jack the Ripper." If you listen to his stuff, You'll reconize a lot of it. His guitar riffs have been used in movies for decades.

Linda used pastels on a toned Artagain paper; I used pencils on a real rough sketch paper.
The magnificence of lunar terrain was something the prophets could not see since telescope optics had not been invented, so their terms in exalting the Creator were in starry terms under black nights that most of us do not have. But I echo their sentiments: "Lift your eyes and look the the heavens: Who created all of these? He brings out the starry host one by one, and calls them each by name." (Isaiah 40:26)

FDA approved Qiagen's therascreen® KRAS RGQ PCR Kit as a companion diagnostic for identifying patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) who are most likely to respond to Erbitux® (cetuximab) therapy. The approval was made in parallel with clearance of Bristol-Myers Squibb and Lilly's Erbitux in combination with FOLFIRI (irinotecan, 5-fluorouracil, leucovorin) chemotherapy as first-line treatment of patients with KRAS mutation-negative epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-expressing mCRC.
Expanded approval of Erbitux as part of combination therapy for EGFR-expressing wild-type KRAS mCRC is conditional on pairing the treatment with an FDA-approved companion diagnostic, and the therascreen KRAS test is actually the only suitable assay to have been sanctioned by the U.S. regulator, Qiagen says. The firm projects the U.S. market for the test is currently in the region of $20 million for this indication alone.
The therascreen KRAS test is the first of Qiagen's companion diagnostics to achieve approval in the U.S. The firm already has 10 real-time PCR or pyrosequencing-based assays approved in Europe, where it markets therascreen tests for KRAS, EGFR, NRAS, BRAF, P13K, JAK2, MGMT, and UGT1A1. In Japan the therascreen KRAS and EGFR kits were approved in 2011. therascreen KRAS is the second assay to be approved by FDA for use on the Rotor-Gene Q MDx platform. U.S. approval of both the Rotor-Gene instrument and the artus Infl A/B RG RT-PCR test for influenza A and B was achieved earlier this year.
Qiagen says it has more than 15 projects in progress to codevelop and market companion diagnostics with firms including Amgen, AstraZeneca, Boehringer Ingelheim, and Pfizer. The deal with Pfizer, signed just over a year ago, is also focused on developing a KRAS companion diagnostic to identify patients with wild-type KRAS who are most likely to respond to Pfizer's EGFR inhibitor dacomitinib.

Energy contract could save Bellmore-Merrick Central High School District millions
1 2 Next page >
Bellmore-Merrick Central High School District officials are weighing the possibility of financing necessary energy-savings projects through an energy performance contract that could save the district millions of dollars.
Frederick Seeba of BBS Architects, Landscape Architects and Engineers in Patchogue, the district's architectural firm, made a presentation on energy performance contracts, or EPCs, at the Central District Board of Education's Aug. 7 work session.
Seeba said that Johnson Controls, an energy service contractor, toured the district's buildings in the first week of August and determined that the district could pay off all of its needed energy-improvement projects and save $7 million over 18 years with an EPC.
Johnson Controls, Seeba said, primarily focused on the district's lighting and computer controls, saying that new and improved lighting and control technology would enable the district to drastically reduce its electricity use.
On average, Seeba said, the district spends $2 million on electricity annually. That breaks down to $1.92 per square foot of building space. According to Seeba, a "very efficient" building operates at $1.10 to $1.20 per square foot. Meanwhile, Johnson Controls has indicated that it could bring the Central District's electric use down to $1.26 per square foot.
That, Seeba said, would mean an annual energy savings of $692,000 for the district.
An energy performance contract would be "a huge windfall for Bellmore-Merrick," said Superintendent John DeTommaso in a Herald interview.
The Board of Education, he said, is considering floating a bond, which would be subject to public approval, to finance upgrades at all five of the district's schools — Grand and Merrick Avenue middle schools, and Calhoun, Kennedy and Mepham high schools. Possible projects include new science laboratories, bathrooms and synthetic-turf athletic fields, along with heating and lighting systems.
DeTommaso said that an energy performance contract would allow the district to remove any energy-upgrade projects, including lighting and heating, from the bond and finance them through the EPC.

There are many issues to consider: 1. If a very efficient building operates between $1.10 - $1.20, why is the expected operations at $1.26. 2. The main point was operating the buildings electricity at lower costs, where does new science laboratories, bathrooms and synthetic-turf athletic fields fit in to this electric saving operation. 3. Have there been other inquiries with other firms that would save electricity costs. Johnson is one company, a comparison should be made. 4. Has solar energy been considered. There are many rebates and tax breaks, as well. 5 Synthetic turf is just that synthetic. Have there been enough studies to make any determination regarding the effects it could have on the environmental air quality and the long term effects on the health of the students that would be rolling in these chemicals. Aren't there negative enough health risks as it is, than to have our children ingesting these chemicals, as well as, adults. 7. As a tax paying resident of Bellmore, and the economy being unpredictable, perhaps sticking to one issue, saving money on electricity, should be our only interest at the present time. Air conditioning is a modern wonder that keeps us cool in the spring, summer and fall. That could be important for students' ability to stay focused and improve their academics.

|Producers reminded of September 30 Sales Closing Date for Noninsurable Crops
|Written by Wauneta Breeze
|Thursday, 18 August 2011 14:54
Chase County USDA Farm Service Agency (FSA) Executive Director Teri Moss, urges producers who want to purchase coverage through the Noninsurable Crop Disaster Assistance Program (NAP) to do so before the sales closing date of Sept. 30, 2011.
The NAP provides financial assistance to producers of noninsurable crops when low yields, loss of inventory or prevented planting occur due to normal disasters.
"Purchasing a crop insurance policy is an easy way for producers to practice risk management," said Moss. "This year alone has proved that natural disasters can directly affect the profitability and recovery of agricultural operations," she said.
The following crops have a NAP application closing date of Sept. 30, 2011: Fall Seeded Mixed Forage, Rye, Speltz, Triticale and Wheat.
In order to meet eligibility requirements for the NAP, crops must be noninsurable, commercially-produced agricultural commodity crops for which the catastrophic risk protection level of crop insurance is not available. If the Risk Management Agency (RMA) offers coverage for a crop in the county, then NAP coverage is not available for that crop.
In the event of a natural disaster, the NAP covers the amount of loss greater than 50 percent of the expected production based on the approved yield and reported acreage.
Eligible producers can apply for coverage using form CCC-471, Application for Coverage. Producers must file the application and service fee by the September 30 deadline.
The service fee is the lesser of $250 per crop or $750 per producer per administrative county, not to exceed a total of $1,875 for a producer with farming interests in multiple counties.
For more information on the sales closing dates and the NAP, contact the Chase County FSA office at (308) 882-4263.

Kansas City Father of the Year Finalist
More than 5,000 students submitted essays entitled "What My Father Means to Me" through the National Center for Fathering's "Royals Father of the Year" contest. On Sunday, as the Royals faced the Marlins in the homestand finale, the winning authors and their fathers were out at Kauffman Stadium to catch some baseball and celebrate the honor. In addition, overall winner Mark Hoduski (pictured here with Reggie Sanders) tossed out a first pitch AND received one of Kauffman Stadium's greatest honors as Sunday's recipient of the Buck O'Neil Legacy Seat program.
Bios for each of the winning fathers are below, courtesy of the National Center for Fathering. Congrats to Mark and all the dads…and Happy Father's Day!
OVERALL WINNER: Mark Hoduski – Describing his relationship with his kids, Mark explains that he likes to believe he nurtures an effective father-child relationship as well as providing security, discipline and stepping in as a role model of a good husband, worker and citizen. As a young father, Mark purposefully studied the behaviors he observed when watching families who raised kind, polite and thoughtful children. "My best advice to new fathers who want to improve their fathering skills is to observe successful fathers and ask lots of questions," Mark shares. Tess, Mark's 10th grade daughter, characterizes him in one word: passionate. "I only hope that maybe some day some of it will rub off on me," she adds. It appears that Tess has been observing her father.
Rodney L. Alexander – Austin, Rodney's second grade son, portrays his dad as his teacher, his entertainer and as a good man who leads by example. Rodney believes one of the hardest things in fathering has been to help his children understand that circumstances and people are not always perfect. Developing an attitude that can overcome disappointments and rocky circumstances will help his children keep a healthy perspective on life. Rodney admits there is not anything he would not do for his kids. It's obvious that Austin appreciates this about his dad; Austin concludes his essay about his dad by saying, "I want to be just like him."
Kevin Bergenhofer – As a father of three, Kevin strives to be young at heart and see life though the eyes of his children. His underlying goal is to raise his family in the godliest way possible. He values his children as his legacy, and admonishes young fathers to live every moment like it could be the last they may have with them. Brady, Kevin's eighth grade son says, "My father loves me and all my family with all his heart." Kevin adds that he hopes to be Brady's best friend forever.
Paul Lively – Hannah, Paul's first grade daughter, depicts her dad in a series of behaviors which when collected and arranged form a collage that tells the story of a dad who loves, shows, teaches, dances, meets, helps, reads, listens, and plays with his children. When it comes to discipline, Paul realizes the difference between childish irresponsibility and active defiance. He encourages parents to be consistent, setting boundaries and sticking to them. He further advises parents to ask for forgiveness when necessary and admit mistakes. Hannah sums her dad up by stating, "He is the best dad I could ever have."
Jeff Rohr – Jeff's parenting style has been influenced by a quote he heard a long time ago: "Kids spell love T. . .I. . .M. . .E." Whether he is providing a warm hug after a scraped knee, laughing at joke for the 10th time, or reprimanding a child for an inappropriate behavior, Jeff realizes that it is a tough balance. "Like all fathers," Jeff writes, "I want the best for my kids and sometimes, that means saying no." Jeff also credits his wife for modeling an attitude that he feels is key to being a good parent. "There are days where she has a list of thing she wants to complete, but if one of the kids asks her to stop and play a game or watch a movie, she drops what she's doing and spends the time with them." Jeff and his wife both feel that Madison, their fifth grade daughter is wise beyond her years; they are proud of her as they see her developing into a great role model for her younger brother and sister.
