St. Elizabeth Hospice Celebrates 10 Years of Inpatient Care Mary and Jim Bunning Honored with Renaming of Community Grief Support Center
July 5, 2017 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE St. Elizabeth Hospice celebrates 10 years of inpatient care Mary and Jim Bunning honored with renaming of Community Grief Support Center The Carol Ann & Ralph V. Haile Jr. US Bank Foundation Hospice Center at St. Elizabeth Edgewood celebrated its 10- year anniversary by honoring donors and staff during a small ceremony last week (Thursday, June 29, 2017). The 16-bed center -- specifically built for those journeying toward the end of life -- provides care and comfort to terminally-ill patients and their families. St. Elizabeth Healthcare was the first hospital in Kentucky to provide inpatient care. “We’ve cared for about 4,203 patients since opening in 2007,” said Brian Jones, director of hospice and palliative care programs at St. Elizabeth Healthcare. “It’s been a tremendous gift to the community and a continuation of the hospice care St. Elizabeth has been providing since 1986.” Longtime philanthropists and hospice supporters Mary Bunning and her late husband Jim Bunning also were recognized during the ceremony. The grief center -- located next to the Hospice Center – was renamed to honor their contributions. Jim Bunning was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1996 after a 17-year Major League Baseball career as a pitcher. A Republican from Kentucky, Bunning served in the U.S. Senate for 10 years. The Mary & Jim Bunning Community Grief Support Center provides free individual, family and group grief counseling to anyone in the community experiencing a loss, not just those who have been through the hospice program. “We are so thankful to supporters like Mary and Jim Bunning who help St. -
Making Cincinnati the National Epicenter for Minority Business
2019-2020 Making Cincinnati the National Epicenter for Minority Business Development 2 – 2019-2020 Accelerator Annual Report Letter from the Chair Over the past couple of years, we have outlined a bold vision and strategic plan to grow the aggregate annual revenues of minority businesses in the region by $1 billion and subsequently create an incremental 3,500 jobs by year-end 2022. This bold vision and plan have galvanized regional and national stakeholders desiring to partner with us to not only accomplish something transformational for Greater Cincinnati, but something that might truly inform and transform this work across the nation. Our four key pillars to achieve these bold goals, which are to grow our existing portfolio firms, build a robust pipeline, attract larger-scale minority firms to the region, and create new minority firms via acquisition of mainstream businesses, have each enjoyed major developments over the past year, and have collectively served to further elevate and position the Minority Business Accelerator as a national best practice. Importantly, our bold plan and vision follow over a decade of exceptional work in the region to build larger-scale minority-owned businesses, which was perhaps best captured in a LendingTree.com report released early in 2019 that recognized Cincinnati among the top 10 metropolitan areas in the country where minority entrepreneurs are finding success. Moreover, certain categories of that very same report, namely the percentage of minority-owned businesses in operation for more than the six years, as well as the percentage of minority businesses with annual revenues greater than $500K, rank Cincinnati as number one in the nation. -

Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings July 20, 2018 THIS DAY IN REDS HISTORY 2000-Mike Bell’s major league debut makes the Bells the first three-generation family in big league history to play for one team. Mike’s grandfather, Gus, played for the Reds from 1953 to 1961 and his father, Buddy, played from 1985 to 1988 MLB.COM Riggleman talks managing Reds' turnaround By Bill Ladson MLB.com @ladsonbill24 Jul. 19th, 2018 In a recent phone interview with MLB.com, Reds interim manager Jim Riggleman answered questions on a wide range of topics, from his managerial style to his respect for Reds ownership. MLB.com: Your agent, Burton Rocks, told me you are having the time of your life. How much fun are you having? Jim Riggleman: I have to preface it by saying working with and for [former Reds manager] Bryan Price was great. I love Bryan. It was kind of like when I was with Manny [Acta in Washington]. They managed well. It's just that they couldn't win ballgames. After a while, that just catches up to you. The other side of that is, now that I've become the manager, I do, absolutely, love it. I'm enjoying it to the nth degree. It's what I love to do. MLB.com: Once you took over, what made the team click? Riggleman: I think a couple of things: After about a week into the season, Eugenio Suarez got hit by a pitch and broke a finger. He was out for about three weeks. And then right around the same time, Scott Schebler, our right fielder, had a shoulder issue, and we put him on the DL for a couple of weeks. -
Chicago Tribune: Baseball World Lauds Jerome
Baseball world lauds Jerome Holtzman -- chicagotribune.com Page 1 of 3 www.chicagotribune.com/sports/chi-22-holtzman-baseballjul22,0,5941045.story chicagotribune.com Baseball world lauds Jerome Holtzman Ex-players, managers, officials laud Holtzman By Dave van Dyck Chicago Tribune reporter July 22, 2008 Chicago lost its most celebrated chronicler of the national pastime with the passing of Jerome Holtzman, and all of baseball lost an icon who so graciously linked its generations. Holtzman, the former Tribune and Sun-Times writer and later MLB's official historian, indeed belonged to the entire baseball world. He seemed to know everyone in the game while simultaneously knowing everything about the game. Praise poured in from around the country for the Hall of Famer, from management and union, managers and players. "Those of us who knew him and worked with him will always remember his good humor, his fairness and his love for baseball," Commissioner Bud Selig said. "He was a very good friend of mine throughout my career in the game and I will miss his friendship and counsel. I extend my deepest sympathies to his wife, Marilyn, to his children and to his many friends." The men who sat across from Selig during labor negotiations—a fairly new wrinkle in the game that Holtzman became an expert at covering—remembered him just as fondly. "I saw Jerry at Cooperstown a few years ago and we talked old times well into the night," said Marvin Miller, the first executive director of the Players Association. "We always had a good relationship. He was a careful writer and, covering a subject matter he was not familiar with, he did a remarkably good job." "You don't develop the reputation he had by accident," said present-day union boss Donald Fehr. -
