"&lt;IMG SRC=\"/IMAGES/BAKER3.JPG\" ALIGN=LEFT&gt;Whether by coincidence or through some pattern or synchronicity, the destinies of former Shelby County Mayor &lt;b&gt;Jim Rout&lt;/b&gt; and his son, beleaguered Young Republican chairman &lt;b&gt;Rick Rout&lt;/b&gt;, seemed uncannily intertwined as each encountered a milestone of sorts this week.&lt;p&gt;First, as the &lt;i&gt;Flyer&lt;/i&gt; first reported Thursday, the senior Rout was named by &lt;b&gt;Jack Morris&lt;/b&gt;, the founder and owner of Jack Morris Auto Glass Company, to head his company as president starting Monday.&lt;p&gt;Then, on Thursday night, the younger Rout was given something less than a vote of confidence as his colleagues on the Shelby County Republican steering committee voted by an 18 to 8 margin to ask him to resign from the committee."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
