BLOHARDS.COM Three-Ring Thursday September 4, 2014, 12:00 Noon EDT – High Balls and Infield Practice: 11:30 a.m. Yale Club – 50 Vanderbilt Avenue (between 44th and 45th) Beloved Bartering Bosox @ Bank-Breaking Bronx Bastids – 7:05 p.m. “Welcome to Kansas City on the Charles.” — Dan Shaughnessy This just in – Jon Lester, Jonny Gomes, John Lackey, Stephen Drew, Felix Doubront, and Jake Peavy send their regrets about not being available for our second and final luncheon of the 2014 season. At least they didn’t request a demotion to Triple-A to avoid us, as seven or eight players over the years have done. Clearly, there is much to discuss about the current and future state of the Red Sox…and we have put together a lineup of productive and affordable luncheon guests, each of whom is under team control through at least 2 p.m. on Thursday, September 4th. We are delighted to welcome Ian Browne, the Red Sox reporter for MLB.com, for a conversation around all things Red Sox, including his new book, Idiots Revisited: Catching Up With the Red Sox Who Won the 2004 World Series. Ian will also be available before and after the luncheon to sign his “endearing, entertaining” book which will be available for $15. There are no automatic outs among our remaining guests. Star closer Dr. Charles Steinberg, WFAN’s and MLB Radio’s Ed Randall, EVP Ray Duffy’s slideshow, trivia and prizes with John Quinn, and the State of the State of the State with Gov. (indicted) Chris Wertz. Fenway PA announcer/poet/writer/All-Around Great Guy, Dick Flavin, will be making the trip down from Quincy. And just confirmed – Official Crooner and Visitor from the East, John Pizzarelli, who sadly just removed “Lackey’s Back in Town” from his luncheon setlist. Come out to renew friendships and see old faces – and BLOHARDS’ gatherings consistently deliver no shortage of old faces. Annual dues (for 2014/2015) are still $20.00 cheap. Lifetime Membership – which comes with an unlaminated membership card that must last a lifetime – will set you back just $150. Luncheon reservations necessary. Chickens must be rounded up, tables set. $75 per person – includes lunch, taxes, gratuities, coffee, “entertainment” You can pay for the luncheon on the website – http://blohards.com/?nav=dues Or bring/send a check – Julie Killian, 42 Forest Avenue, Rye, NY 10580 914 967 2782 Home…914 548 3588 Cell [email protected].

2014 JC Connect
2013 - 2014 Annual Report CONNECT SRJC student in Automotive Technology Program 1 CONNECT Message from the Chair Dear SRJC supporters, alumni and friends, On behalf of the Santa Rosa Junior College Foundation Board, I would like to thank you for your support of SRJC students and to highlight once more the difference your contribution can make to a student in need. For nearly a century, Santa Rosa Junior College has changed the lives of generations who build their futures on the solid foundation of education. The commitment SRJC’s faculty, staff and administration make to student success is always increased by the support we receive from our local community. Students of all ages attend SRJC to find their way to professional achievement, prepare to transfer to four- year universities, or train for vocational positions. Too often, they are overwhelmed by financial needs, working several jobs, studying full-time, and trying to make ends meet. In 2013-2014, 37% of students received financial aid, Board of Governors fee waivers or scholarships. The Scholarship Office receives moving essays from students talking about many years of struggle between the desire to go to school and the necessity of meeting a budget. Hardship can be seen at every age: the College has young students who are homeless and do homework while living in a shelter, students in their 40s and 50s who need to make a career change, as well as first generation students who never thought possible a higher education because their parents and grandparents did not have one. Charlie Briones is one example of a struggling student.

A's News Clips, Friday, April 20, 2012 Oakland A's Have Surprise for Los
A’s News Clips, Friday, April 20, 2012 Oakland A's have surprise for Los Angeles Angels, win three of four By Joe Stiglich, Oakland Tribune One team walked off the field licking its wounds Thursday night at Angel Stadium. Just not the one you might have expected when this series began. The A's, who arrived here having bumbled last weekend's series in Seattle, reversed their course and took three of four from the Los Angeles Angels, viewed by many as the favorites to win the American League West. A 4-2 victory Thursday not only clinched the A's a winning record on their seven-game road trip, it moved them to .500 on the season at 7-7. Raise your hand if you saw this coming back on Monday, when the A's were blanked 6-0 in the series opener to lose their third straight. "After losing two of three in Seattle, lose the first game here and to come back to win the next three, it shows a little bit about how tough these guys are," A's manager Bob Melvin said. The A's staged a morale-boosting eighth-inning rally to win Tuesday, and they received a sterling pitching effort from Bartolo Colon on Wednesday. They managed to win Thursday despite being outhit 10-3, due in large part to a clutch effort from their bullpen. Five pitchers combined on four shutout innings after starter Tommy Milone (2-1) made it through just five innings. "The bullpen came in and shut the door," Milone said.
