Dell Katherine “Kit” Duffy Adrienne J. Goodman Marie J. Kuda Mary D. Powers 2 3 4 CHICAGO LGBT HALL OF FAME The Chicago LGBT Hall of Fame (formerly the Chicago Gay and Lesbian Hall of Fame) is both a historic event and an exhibit. Through the Hall of Fame, residents of Chicago and the world are made aware of the contributions of Chicago’s lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) communities and the communities’ efforts to eradicate bias and discrimination. With the support of the City of Chicago Commission on Human Relations, its Advisory Council on Gay and Lesbian Issues (later the Advisory Council on Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Issues) established the Chicago Gay and Lesbian Hall of Fame (changed to the Chicago LGBT Hall of Fame in 2015) in June 1991. The inaugural induction ceremony took place during Pride Week at City Hall, hosted by Mayor Richard M. Daley. This was the first event of its kind in the country. Today, after the advisory council’s abolition and in partnership with the City, the Hall of Fame is in the custody of Friends of the Chicago LGBT Hall of Fame, an Illinois not- for-profit corporation with a recognized charitable tax-deductible status under Internal Revenue Code section 501(c)(3).

    NATIONAL COLLEGIATE BASEBALL WRITERS NEWSLETTER (Volume 43, No. 2, Feb. 27, 2004) NCBWA President’s Message By NCBWA President Jeff Hurd Before basketball’s March Madness descends upon us, it is a little amazing that some Division I baseball teams are approaching the 20-game mark (notably Kansas at 9-7-1 through Feb. 23 and Cal Poly at 12- 4 prior to its Feb. 25-29 games). Before you know it, the NCAA Regionals will be upon us. This absolutely is one of the busiest but most intriguing times of the college sports year with as many as 10-12 sports occurring simultaneously from baseball to men’s volleyball to golf to indoor track to gosh- knows-what. It’s also refreshing to welcome the initial 2004 NCAA Division II NCBWA poll to this month’s newsletter and to see some of the baseball teams from cooler weather regions migrating south for the annual ritual of spring break baseball. The incessant pings of the aluminum bats remind us that the sights and smells of springtime and conference baseball cannot be far off; enjoy and sneak out of the arenas when time permits for some great diamond activity. Sincerely, Jeff Hurd - NCBWA President - Western Athletic Conference NCBWA Division I Players of Week The NCBWA Division I National Players of the Week are into their third week of the 2004 season. Nominees for the aw2ard are taken from Conference players of the week and announced on Tuesday. NCBWA Vice-President Mike Montoro of Southern Miss ([email protected]) coordinates the weekly awards.

    Buffalo Sabres Daily Press Clips November 24, 2013 Red Wings-Sabres Preview By Kevin Chroust Associated Press November 24, 2013 The Detroit Red Wings didn't expect to be keeping close company with the Buffalo Sabres when they switched to the Eastern Conference. Since Nov. 3, that's exactly what they've done as the first-year Atlantic Division foes have combined for 13 points in the last three weeks. The Red Wings and Sabres are two of four NHL teams with seven points or less in that span, and they'll face off Sunday in Buffalo. Detroit (10-7-7) has seven points over its last nine games - a 1-3-5 span. The Red Wings failed to add to that total in Saturday's 4-2 home loss to Ottawa. "Bottom line is you've got to be mentally tough and you've got to find a way to win games, and we didn't find a way tonight," Detroit coach Mike Babcock said. Detroit and Ottawa each went 2 for 8 on the power play. "You deserve what you get," Babcock said. "You can't be in the box all night. No one gets into rhythm like that." Pavel Datsyuk and Darren Helm scored power-play goals for Detroit, while Henrik Zetterberg got his sixth assist in the last four games. Datsyuk has eight points in his last five games against Buffalo. Detroit's Jimmy Howard allowed four goals on 29 shots, falling to 0-2-4 in his last six starts. Backup Jonas Gustavsson will start against the Sabres.
