DiVincenzo, Jr. Essex County Executive Dear Friends, Welcome to the 25th Annual Newark Athletic Hall of Fame (NAHF) Dinner. I am so glad that you are here tonight to celebrate the Silver Anniversary of this great sports institution. As a member of the Hall myself, I can tell you, it is a thrill to be an inductee. This year, 25 outstanding athletes will be inducted into the Hall in recognition of their achievements, both here as high school students and later on in college. Football, basketball, track…players and coaches, men and women…the diversity of the inductees makes us realize how broad the athletic opportunities are, and how multi-cultural our County is. Athletes have the chance to become community leaders, as so many of our inductees prove. They stand as role models, and when youngsters see success they are encouraged to do their best in all areas of their lives. We will also recognize the achievements of the 2012 Essex County College Track and Field Team…strong enough to have 11 members of the team participate in the 2012 London Olympic Games. Thank you for being part of our community of friends. Your participation here tonight will help make the dreams of some young athlete-scholars come true. We appreciate your commitment to the Newark Athletic Hall of Fame, and look forward to seeing you next year. Sincerely, Joseph N. DiVincenzo, Jr. Essex County Executive ESSEX COUNTY IS AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER th Y R 2 A A S 5N N I V E R President’s Message President’s Message Inductees, Scholarship Recipients, Team Awardees, Family and Friends, It is with great honor that I welcome you tonight to our 25nd Annual Newark Athletic Hall of Fame Induction Dinner, our Silver Anniversary. Since 1988, we have been honoring athletes from public and private schools in and around the City of Newark. Our initial purpose was to focus attention on Newark’s glorious athletic past and it’s bright future by creating a positive situation where friendships, camaraderie and memories can be renewed. Tonight we continue that tradition with new inductees, scholarship winners and a team award. The Honorees have proven, as in the past, that they are to be recognized as true role models, a characteristic very much in need these days, whether in a large city or a small town. You can turn to a bio page in this or any one of our previous twenty four journals and find a role model you can be proud to emulate. The hallmarks of a good athlete are dedication, desire, teamwork, hard work, time management and good sportsmanship. These are the same qualities necessary to succeed in the classroom and the workplace. That’s why our Hall of Fame Family of Inductees are to be viewed as success stories, on and off the field. To our Scholarship Award Winners, you have been recognized to possess the characteristics outlined above; therefore, we wish you good fortune in college and hope to see you back here one evening on the dais, as a future Inductee into the Hall of Fame. In addition to the individual inductees this year we are recognizing the 2012 Essex County College Track and Field Team who placed an unprecedented eleven athletes in the London Olympic Games and their coach, Michael Smart. Finally, as Newark has become a hotbed for professional and college sports alike, we must not forget the high school and recreation level athletes and support their efforts. Therefore; we continue our relationships with the teams involved and their connection with the youth of the city. We are proud of our student athletes from the City of Newark. Furthermore, let me thank the members of the NAHF Board, who have worked so tirelessly on making this night the success that it continues to be, and to the donors and attendees out there who support our efforts each and every year. Harry Snyder Class of 2005 th Y R 2 A A S 5N N I V E R Congratulations Newark Athletic Hall of Fame 25th Annual Awards Dinner It is my honor to congratulate you on your induction to the Newark Athletic Hall of Fame. I am proud to honor the inductee class of 2013 who come from Newark public and private schools; you are truly an inspiration for our City and serve as a role model for other youth in our community. Striving for athletic and academic excellence is the hallmark of a successful athlete. As a former college athlete, I can attest firsthand how competition through sports and recreation mirrors the competitive nature of what it takes to be productive and accomplished in today’s society. Determination, discipline and leadership are all qualities that every one of you possess and have exemplified - proving that there are endless opportunities when combining athletics with education. Newark has a long tradition of athletes who have excelled in their chosen sport and continued on to make substantial contributions both on and off the field. I am confident that this year will be no different and you will write new pages of glory in our athletic history. Again, I welcome you to the Newark Athletic Hall of Fame as it marks its 25th Anniversary and congratulate you on this honor. th Y R 2 A A S 5N N I V E R The idea of a Newark Athletic Hall of Fame was conceived by Mel Knight who discussed it with Richie Regan and they asked John McLaughlin and Jerry Greco, as business community representatives, to join with them in forming THE a committee. SILVER The group arranged ANNIVERSARY with John Murray, an attorney, to establish a set of by‐laws and to register the Committee as a non‐profit organization. It was incorporated in 1988 as The Newark Athletic Hall of Fame, a New Jersey Non‐Profit Corporation. John McLaughlin acted as incorporator, along with the first trustees: Jerome Greco, Melvin Knight, Richard Regan, Joseph W. Walsh and John P. McLaughlin. This was written and signed on March 14, 1988. Attending the first meeting on December 1, 1987, in the Physical Education Building at Essex County College was: Mayor Sharp James, Walter Daniels, Hoddy Mahon, Bob Brewster, Steve Adubato, Jack Dalton, Art Coles, Bill Mallory, Charlie Johnson, Lynell Robinson, Rip Rossi, Ollie Dickerson, Vincent Finch, Angelo Aromando, Burney Adams, Charles Rubin, Jerry Greco, Richie Regan, Sid Dorfman, Mel Knight and John McLaughlin. Agreeing to serve, but not in attendances were: Lloyd Glicken, Joe Walsh, Nick Serio, Florence Salerno, John Allen, Matt Rivers, Frank Verducci, John Murphy and John Murray. The first slates of elected officers were: Sharp James‐Honorary Chairman, John P. McLaughlin‐President, Melvin Knight‐Vice President, Jerome D. Greco‐Secretary/Treasurer, Richard J. Regan and Joseph W. Walsh, Trustees. “The purposes for which the Corporation is organized are charitable and educational including the specific purpose of honoring past great athletes of the City of Newark, New Jersey, thereby calling attention to Newark New Jersey’s fine history and encouraging youth of the City of Newark to participate in athletics and to give them a positive view of the future”, as stated in Article Two of the original by‐laws. The Inaugural Induction Dinner was tentatively planned for June 16, 1988, possibly at Essex County College. Appointed committees would deal with publicity, program, awards, tickets and dinner arrangements. In the first year, all of Newark’s high schools and colleges would be represented, but election would not be restricted to school athletes. An open, non‐restrictive policy would be adopted. An athlete that brought recognition to Newark, regardless of his/her residence would be considered for election. And participants in all sports would be given consideration. Thus the Newark Athletic Hall of Fame was born. The first classf o Inductees included: Richie Regan and Jim Bouie‐West Side, Greg Notte and Al Zmijewski‐East Side, Leroy Smith and Al DeRogatis‐Central, Pete Shaw and Manny Polci‐Barringer, Al Attles and Swede Masin‐Weequahic, Lonnie Wright and Al Makeoff‐South Side, Billy Conn and Owen Carroll‐St,Benedict’s, Julius Nicolai ‐Arts, Marty Liquori‐Essex Catholic, Ray DeRiggi‐Vailsburg, Jack Speary‐Good Counsel. Wade Likens‐St.Michael’s, Skippy Minisi‐Newark Academy and John Murphy‐ St.James. Also, inducted in the General Category were Sid Dorfman, Joe Liddy, Ray Dandridge, Allie Stolz, Les Fein, Vinny Farrell, Sal Commisa, Dr. Gerald Certulo, Dr. Margaret Brown and Joe Kasberger. th Y R 2 A A S 5N N I V E R PROGRAM Call to Order________________________________________Harry Snyder Inductees Procession___________________Charles Talley and Gary Hayes Introduction of Rev.

  • Make a Good Deal
    10938_Bergs_01.c.qxd 12/1/03 4:01 PM Page 1 CHAPTER 1 Make a Good Deal Finding the right location and lining up good lenders are some of the easier aspects to buying real estate. What’s tricky is negotiating a good deal. Patience is a virtue in the pursuit of getting what you want. But research, due diligence, planning, and flexibility are just as important. 1 10938_Bergs_01.c.qxd 12/1/03 4:01 PM Page 2 10938_Bergs_01.c.qxd 12/1/03 4:01 PM Page 3 hen it comes right down to it, the best advice for real estate Winvestors is to practice patience. Though there are many instances when it is necessary to act quickly, patience is a virtue even in situa- tions where time is of the essence. As one case in point, right after the dust cleared from Equity Office Properties’ initial public offering in 1997, the real estate investment trust’s chairman, Sam Zell, began planning a major expansion. Caught in his crosshairs was another real estate investment trust (REIT), Cornerstone Properties, which he wanted to own. Zell knew that although Cornerstone had managed to quickly grow its portfolio of properties, the New York–based REIT was smaller and would have trouble gaining access to the capital mar- kets. It took three years, but Zell finally snared his prey, buying the company for $4.6 billion. The key to this deal was persuading a Dutch pension fund, which owned about 30 percent of Cornerstone, to sell. Although Zell clearly coveted the company’s 15 million square feet of office space, much of which was located in the same cities where Equity Office Properties already had a presence, he took his time with the pension fund.

  • Donald Trump
    Donald Trump Donald Trump is known worldwide as a billionaire entrepreneur. He is also one of the most well-known television stars off his top-rated show "Celebrity Apprentice." Although he comes from a privileged background, Donald inherited nearly nothing. He amassed his fortune through his ability to work hard and close mega-million dollar deals. While known primarily for his fame, fortune and love life, you may not know that he lost everything he had in 1990 and pulled off one of the most amazing reinventions in history. Donald John Trump was born on June 14, 1946 in New York City, New York. His father was a successful business man. His grandfather had died early forcing his father into business at an early age. Donald's father, Fred Trump started his own business and Donald learned deal-making assisting his father in the growing business. Donald attended military school and went on to graduate from the elite University Of Pennsylvania's Wharton Financial school. When Fred Trump died though, Donald didn't inherit a large prosperous business. He did inherit his father's ability to recognize a good deal when he saw it, from assisting him in his business for so many years. Donald was ready now to become a successful businessman. Armed with a great education, experience taught to him from working with his father and his own in-born ability to negotiate successful opportunities, Donald left Queens for Manhattan. He was almost totally impoverished but he joined a key elite business club to make contacts and network with big financiers.

  • An Analysis of the American Outdoor Sport Facility: Developing an Ideal Type on the Evolution of Professional Baseball and Football Structures
    AN ANALYSIS OF THE AMERICAN OUTDOOR SPORT FACILITY: DEVELOPING AN IDEAL TYPE ON THE EVOLUTION OF PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL AND FOOTBALL STRUCTURES DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Chad S. Seifried, B.S., M.Ed. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Donna Pastore, Advisor Professor Melvin Adelman _________________________________ Professor Janet Fink Advisor College of Education Copyright by Chad Seifried 2005 ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to analyze the physical layout of the American baseball and football professional sport facility from 1850 to present and design an ideal-type appropriate for its evolution. Specifically, this study attempts to establish a logical expansion and adaptation of Bale’s Four-Stage Ideal-type on the Evolution of the Modern English Soccer Stadium appropriate for the history of professional baseball and football and that predicts future changes in American sport facilities. In essence, it is the author’s intention to provide a more coherent and comprehensive account of the evolving professional baseball and football sport facility and where it appears to be headed. This investigation concludes eight stages exist concerning the evolution of the professional baseball and football sport facility. Stages one through four primarily appeared before the beginning of the 20th century and existed as temporary structures which were small and cheaply built. Stages five and six materialize as the first permanent professional baseball and football facilities. Stage seven surfaces as a multi-purpose facility which attempted to accommodate both professional football and baseball equally.

    TO ALL President’s Message Inductees, Scholarship Recipients, Family and Friends, It is with great honor that I welcome you tonight, to our 30nd Annual Newark Athletic Hall of Fame Induction Dinner. Since 1988, we have been honoring athletes from public and private schools in and around the City of Newark. Our initial purpose was to focus attention on Newark’s glorious past and its bright future by creating a positive environment where friendships, camaraderie and memories can be renewed. Tonight we continue that tradition with eighteen new Inductees and four Scholarship Awardees. The Honorees have proven, as in the past, that they are to be recognized as true role models, a characteristic very much in need these days, whether in a large city or a small town. You can turn to a bio page in this or any one of the previous twenty-nine books of inductees and find a role model you can be proud to emulate. The hallmarks of a good athlete are dedication, desire, teamwork, hard work, time management and good sportsmanship. These are the same qualities necessary to succeed in the classroom and the workplace. That’s why our Hall of Fame Family of Inductees are to be viewed as success stories, on and off the field. To our Scholarship Award Winners, you have been recognized to possess the characteristics outlined above; therefore, we wish you good fortune in college and hope to see you back here one evening on the dais, as a future Inductee into the Hall of Fame. Finally, as Newark has become a hotbed for professional and college sports alike, we must not forget the high school and recreation level athletes and support their efforts.
