Here are some fun things to look forward to this year. Featured Artist “Born in a Day” was created by Julie and Kevin Zuckerman to honor the great state of Oklahoma and legacy of the Native American population. The main image was inspired by the Great Eagle Feather and Olive Branch from the state flag. The background color represents the state wildflower, the Indian Blanket. The other vibrant colors honor the pride of the community such as the Oklahoma City Thunder, Oklahoma City Dodgers, Oklahoma City Energy, etc. Finally, the symbolism of the painting is to be bright, be bold, and make a difference in your community. Festival Co-Chairs Susan Whittington and Randy Lewis The 2019 Festival Co-Chairs are available for media interviews upon request.

    SandRidge Energy, Inc. Sends Letter To Stockholders Recommends Stockholders Support Current Highly Qualified Board and Reject the TPG-Axon Group's Nominees and Proposals OKLAHOMA CITY, Feb. 20, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- SandRidge Energy, Inc. (the "Company" or "SandRidge") (NYSE: SD) today sent a letter urging stockholders to support the Company's highly qualified Board and reject the TPG-Axon Group's nominees by signing, dating and returning SandRidge's WHITE consent revocation card. Included below is the full text of the letter to SandRidge stockholders: February 20, 2013 Dear Fellow Stockholder: PROTECT YOUR INVESTMENT IN SANDRIDGE ENERGY PLEASE SIGN, DATE AND RETURN THE WHITE CONSENT REVOCATION CARD TODAY Your support of SandRidge Energy and its Board is critical to the continued execution of our strategy to capitalize on SandRidge's leading position in the Mississippian Lime and deliver long-term value for our stockholders. New York-based hedge fund TPG-Axon has engaged in a false and misleading campaign in an attempt to replace your experienced Board. If successful, TPG-Axon's proposals would turn control of your Company over to a new Board of Directors nominated exclusively by TPG-Axon without providing you with any control premium for your shares. TPG-Axon has yet to put forth a thoughtful plan to create value for stockholders. Giving their nominees control would place your investment at risk by disrupting the execution of our strategic plan. Don't let TPG-Axon remove SandRidge's independent and highly qualified directors who are focused on serving all of the Company's stockholders. We urge you to take no action with respect to TPG-Axon's consent solicitation other than to sign, date and return the enclosed WHITE consent revocation card.

  • March Briefcase
    March, 2021 Vol. 54, No. 3 A Publication of the OKLAHOMA COUNTY BAR ASSOCIATION WWW.OKCBAR.ORG A Very Special “Special Judge” By Jeffery W. Massey, Asst. Dist. Atty How does one approach the sometimes sensitive sub- ject of asking a judge about his taking leave of the bench? Such decisions are deeply personal and often sensitive. However the departure of the Hon. Geary Walke was undertaken with grace and poise; just like his tenure on the bench. The Judge departed the courthouse without great fanfare or pomp. His request. Those that knew him desired to sing his accolades and years of devoted service. I had the fortune of being practicing before His Honor for two years and observed the passion and dignity he brought to his court. Now that a few months have passed, I have successfully tracked down the elusive retired jurist for observations and missives regarding his career. Oyez, Oyez, Oyez! Draw near for the Hon. Geary Walke, late special judge of the Oklahoma County District Court: On Retirement: The Frightful Coronavirus Pandemic of 2020 was a great time to retire. Forced social isolation resulted in con- stant reading, purely for enjoyment, and more relaxation/ couch potato training than anyone needs. I memorized all the dialogue for every episode of every season of The Big Bang Theory. I actually read all the articles in each National Geographic (not just perusing the photos). I am enjoying my granddaughters who are talented and probably the smartest girls in the entire world. I’m getting reacquainted with my wife, Barbara (who was my high school sweetheart and who retired from Hobby Lobby Corporate office in June), which has been a treat.
