Holocaust Survivors, Victims Of Naiism To Bt Honored ly Israel Bonds Tonight ., . Irv Szames hopes tonight is only the beginning. Szames, a. Holocaust survivor, will be honored along with the rest of the first- and -second-generation Holocaust siiravors~and victims of Nazism in Central Ohio at the annual State of Israel Bonds dinner at the Hyatt Regency Hotel tonight, June 21. Szames isn't looking for honors; he has just one mission in mind: "We have to keep the flame alive." The flame he talks about concerns the survivors of the Holocaust. And Szames, an active member of the Columbus Jewish community, is rallying together second- generation. Holocaust survivors in arr effort to ensure that the Holocaust is never forgotten and that another one never occurs. Szames is leading the drive to form a second- generation group in Central. Ohio. Preliminary work on the group has started and already he has -about 150 names of children of survivors in the area. "We started with only about 40 to 50 names," Szames said. "Word of mouth has been our strongest form of gathering names." Szames is getting a helpful assist from the State of Israel Bonds committee, which has located additional survivors and children of survivors, who will all be recognized at tonight's dinner. All survivors in the Central Ohio community will be recognized at the dinner, The State of Israel Bonds committee also will unveil a scroll that all survivors and second-generation survivors will sign. The scroll then will be preserved for posterity and a permanent record will stand documenting the names of all survivors and second-' generation survivors who live in Central Ohio. Names of the deceased survivors who made their home in Cen tral Ohio.also will be inscribed on the scroll. The timing of the salute by the State of Israel Bonds couldn't have been better as far as Szames in concerned. "We started making our plans and then the State of Israel Bonds people stepped in," Szames said. "We thought this was a perfect complement to what we (CONTINUED ON PAGE 12) WASHINGTON (JTA) - In spite of the searing heat, dozens of Congressmen gathered last Week along with human rights activists and clerymen on the steps of the U.S. Capitol to demonstrate their opposition to the Soviet Union's harassment and repression of Soviet ■; Jews and other minorities there. In all, some 300 people participated in the second annual Congressional Fast and Prayer Vigil for Soviet Jewry. Congressional members fasted from sunup to sundown and participated in the one hour vigil oh the Capitol steps. The demonstration, one of the largest Congressional protests in support of Soviet Jewry ever held, was sponsored by Reps. John Porter (R. 111.), Robert Mrazek (D. N.Y), Jack Kemp (R. N.Y.) and Sens. Carl Levin (D. Mich.) and John Heinz (R. Pa.) and Rep. Tom Lantos (D.S.Cal.) Rather than being a mass - demonstration, the vigil was planned to focus on the Congressional role in support of Soviet Jewry. It was staged on the 14th anniversary of the notorious Leningrad trials and commemorated those trials during which 11 Soviet dissidents, including nine Jewish refuseniks, were tried and imprisoned in a case that focused international attention on Soviet Three long Time Members To Receive Awards Af Beth Jacob Testimonial Dinner Ronald Golden, president of the Beth Jacob Congregation, announces that Richard Kohn, life long member of Beth Jacob, will be the recipient of--.the congregation's Parness Award, at the annual synagogue Testimonial Dinner to be held Mg. 21. Sharing in the honors with Kohn will be Ruth .Weinstock and Freida and Jack Weisman, who" will each receive the Kesser Torah Award. Kohn, an attorney, isbeing recognized for his "devoted and loyal labours in behalf of the congregation in establishing and implementing the Kerem Foundation of the Beth Jacob Congregation." "Kohn has volunteered selfless and countless hours in helping the synagogue reach a sound financial structure during a most critical time after our new edifice was built," explained Rabbi David Stavsky. The Shofar Award Committee selected Kohn for his sense of "sincerity, integrity and financial support to the synagogue." Mrs. Weinstock will be the recipient of the Kesser Torah award for "legendary service and labours in behalf of the Beth Jacob .Congregation." A member for over 53 years, she is the daughter of the late Lena and Shaul Pass. For over three decades, she has, without interruption,- served as a member of the Chevra Kaddisha. For the past 12 years, she has volunteered her services as "kugel maker" for the Shabbos Min- yon Club. The Shofar Award Committee has cited her for "unpretentious, selfless and exemplary senior member of our congregation who has given full measure to our, shule." Mr. and Mrs. Weisman will be awarded with the Keser Torah Award for their (''unmatched and immeasur- human rights violations. "For the past several years, Soviet Jews have become undeserving pawns in the international battle of wills," Mrazek declared. "As relations have chilled, the souls of innocent men, women and children are frozen. The ability of this body to help change this tragic reality is beyond question and it is our responsibility to exact this change." able labours in behalf of their synagogue." Both life long and second generation Beth Jacob members, they have served the congregation for over a quarter of a century. As presidents of the Brotherhood and Sisterhood, both have accumulated more hours of work than any other couple in the synagogue. From Sunday morning breakfasts, to teenage N.CiS.Y. conventions;; to "Shabbos with the Rabbi;?.' to "Torah Day," Cantorial Concerts and nearly every program at Beth Jacob, they have consistently displayed unique a*id incomparable service to the congregation, Rabbi Stavsky pointed out: Golden said that Irvin Flox has been named general chairman of the Testimonial Dinner; Jack Rubin is Journal chairman and Rabbi; Stavsky will, serve as honorary chairman. Each congressional member adopted a refusenik for the day and will write to this person during the year, write to Soviet officials about the refusenik's case and help him otherwise to obtain his release from the Soviet Union.

text: Brexit: The key issues for business 分享本文 29 SEP 2016 John Forrest The UK's vote to leave the European Union in June was just the first step in a process that is likely to be unparalleled in scale and complexity. Several months after the event, it is difficult to predict exactly how or on what terms the exit will be effected. However what is clear is that Brexit will have an impact on the rights and obligations of commercial parties in all sectors. The UK's new Prime Minister, Theresa May, has made it very clear that Brexit means Brexit, and the UK will withdraw from the EU. It is a question not of "if" but "when." The time-frame is now becoming clearer. In a speech to the Conservative Party conference in October 2016, May pledged to trigger the exit process in March 2017 and also announced plans to introduce a bill to repeal the UK's 1972 European Communities Act, to come into force at the end of the period of exit negotiations. The bill will also convert the body of existing EU law into UK law, with a view to establishing initial certainty. A process of amendment, repeal or improvement as appropriate will then begin. A new Department for Exiting the EU has also been set up, along with a new Department for International Trade. The UK has also said that it will give up its Presidency of the Council of the EU (this was to have been in second half of 2017). Challenges for business The UK has yet to give formal notice of its intention to leave the EU, and is unlikely to do so before March 2017. Once it does give notice, a two year exit negotiation will begin, the outcome of which is unpredictable. The only certainty for the foreseeable future is uncertainty. This is, understandably, frustrating for businesses, whether they operate in the UK, in the rest of the EU or indeed outside the EU. However, there is plenty they can do now to ensure a smoother transition in the years to come. In the rest of this article, we review the priority areas on which UK businesses are currently focussed. Getting started Many businesses have set up a Brexit committee to co-ordinate all Brexit-related issues and communications and prepare an overview of the potential impact of Brexit and the business response. Some businesses also need to consider their public reporting obligations, and what, if anything, they need to say in public statements or disclosures, or in their annual report. Regulatory review A top level review to assess which EU regulations currently affect the business is essential for all businesses operating in the UK. These regulations vary from sector to sector, but every business will be affected to some degree. This is proving to be an enormous exercise. The UK's regulatory framework has become increasingly entwined with that of the EU over several decades and the unwinding process is going to be enormously complex. For the time being, it is 'business as usual' - at present the UK remains a member of the EU and must continue to abide by European laws and regulations. Contractual Relationships Going forward, we may see parties who want to escape their contractual obligations, for whatever reason, employing Brexit-related legal arguments founded in "force majeure" (which entitles a party to contract relief and/or termination because of unforeseen events) or "frustration" (which allows termination because of impossibility of performance). These are not easy arguments to win, but we are advising businesses to review force majeure, termination and material adverse change clauses in contracts carefully. Cautious parties should consider express carve-outs for any Brexit related circumstances. Defined terms should also be checked, such as references to the "EU" and EU regulatory bodies. These may not work as intended post-Brexit. If Brexit might cause a counterparty financial difficulties, it is also important to include contractual provisions that will flag up financial issues at an early stage. Other points to consider include: the possibility of future corporate reorganisation by either party to a contract, e.g. to ensure certain business functions stay within the EU; how exchange rate fluctuations might affect pricing; how costs of compliance are going to be borne between the parties; and the most appropriate means of dispute resolution. Financing We are advising businesses to review loan and other financing agreements to check whether the effect of Brexit - whether it manifests in reduced consumer confidence, slowing investment or a further downgrade to the UK's credit rating - might put them in breach of financial covenants, financial ratios or material adverse change clauses. In some circumstances, a business' ability to borrow might ultimately be affected. UK businesses are also assessing what sources of EU funding are relevant to them, what the impact of losing that funding might be and how the loss can be mitigated. Supply chain management It is also key to analyse the extent to which a business involves supplies of goods or services between the UK and (a) other EU Member States and (b) other countries with which the EU has concluded or is currently negotiating trade agreements. The impact of the imposition of tariffs or non-tariff barriers and the increased administrative burden needs to be considered, though realistically it is difficult to assess at this stage. Some businesses are considering relocation in order to maintain free access to the EU market. This is a particular issue in the financial services sector, where certain UK-authorised financial institutions (banks, investment firms, fund managers, insurers, insurance intermediaries, payment institutions and e-money issuers) benefit from passporting rules. These rules allow them to carry out their activities across the EEA without setting up a separate entity and having to obtain authorisation in each EEA state. Passporting rights derive from a range of EU directives. Post-Brexit, assuming no agreement to the contrary is reached, UK-based businesses will no longer be able to rely on these passporting rules. Relocation carries with it a number of challenges, not least assessing the relative merits of alternative locations. What authorisations would a new operation need to obtain? What would the implications be for headcount? What are the lead times for having discussions with the local regulator, obtaining floor space and relocating or hiring necessary staff? To what extent could operations then be delegated back to the UK? Personnel issues and relationship management Free movement is one of the core elements of EU membership. If this is curtailed, some businesses may be affected significantly. The costs should be analysed. Visa requirements for example could make it difficult to recruit UK-based employees from the remaining EU Member States (and vice versa). Individuals may also prefer to be located in the EU where their movement would remain unrestricted. UK employees currently working in the EU might also need assistance with visas in due course. Businesses should consider what messaging to give to employees about the potential impact, although this (like so much else Brexit-related) is difficult to assess in a relative vacuum. Pension trustees also need to monitor risk from market volatility. Conclusion The process initiated by the UK's decision to leave the EU raises significant challenges and potential opportunities. While there is much uncertainty regarding the shape of the UK's future relationship with the EU post-Brexit, it is clear that Brexit will affect the rights and obligations of all parties to commercial activity in the UK, the wider EU and beyond. Therefore, consideration should be given now to the strategic action that businesses may wish to take in a number of areas, including contractual relationships, financing and supply chain management, to manage the risks and maximise the opportunities presented by Brexit. Proactive businesses will be best placed to meet the challenges of the coming years. This article will be published shortly in a special Brexit-issue of Kluwer's Nieuwsbrief Bedrijfsjuridische berichten.

I am 42 YO male 11 days post op myopia w/astigmaism. At the time of my surgery my doctor said my flaps were perfect, the following day's exam he said the same thing. I have had no discomfort at all. My eyes feel perfectly normal. I have dry eyes only when I wake up. I use the lubricating eye drops every 2 -3 hours, even if my eye don't feel dry.
My left eye has ghosting, my right has none. I have starbursts at night which seems to have eased a little.
My left eye usually has virtually no ghosting when I wake, then about noon it is at its worst (at a distance only). Then as the day progresses it eases some. My vision minus starburst and ghosting is quite good, even at night.
Is this a common? do you see anthing here that raises a flag?
I use a computer a lot at work and that puts stress on my left eye (dom eye). Its that a contributor?

The sad part about that list is that all of them except Lyles have only had very limited success at low levels. J.D. Martinez has had one good season (but I am hopeful it will continue).
It will be interesting to see what some of these just drafted and just signed guys will do in pro ball. I am particularly excited about Ariel Ovando.
It is still a better outlook than it was 2 years ago, though. And for that, I am thankful.

Brits not sold on eco handsets
Price, battery life more important than greenness
Several handset manufacturers have already started marketing eco-friendly mobile phones, but a new survey's discovered that only a small minority of Brits are actually sold on so-called eco phones.
Opinium Research – on behalf of website Moneysupermarket – quizzed 2088 UK adults earlier this year and discovered that a whopping 88 per cent couldn't careless about the eco-friendliness of their mobile phone.
Just under half – 49 per cent – said they'd refuse to pay more for a handset just because it was made from recycled materials. The body of Samsung's E200, for example, is made entirely from "bio-plastic" extracted from corn.
Those questioned admitted that a phone's purchase price, battery life and durability were their top concerns. Some 13 per cent went as far as admitting that they wouldn't buy a mobile phone if it was made from recycled materials.
However, the study revealed that many simply don't know how hazardous a mobile phone can actually be to the environment if not disposed of properly.
For example, 39 per cent either thought that phones don't have any hazardous materials inside them or admitted that they'd no idea if phones do. ®

Description: Renowned bladesmith Masami Asai passed away in the summer of 2014. He will be greatly missed � as a person, an artist, and one of the truly great knifemakers of Japan. Before his passing, his apprentice, Yamamoto, was given the right to continue to make knives under the Asai name. We are working with Yamamoto-san to determine which knife lines will be continued. We regret that this means that only those knives that are in stock can be ordered at this time.
The kiritsuke gyuto is modeled after the French pattern chef's knife. Longer and slimmer than the santoku, it is suited to preparation of meat and may be used as a general purpose chef's knife. The triangular tip results in a detail oriented, yet stronger tip than the gyuto. The long blade is needed for the slicing motion required to cut meat and the tall profile provides plenty of finger clearance over a cutting board. The long, straight spine is perfect for moving foods across a cutting board after chopping. The kiritsuke gyuto is a perfect choice to grab whether slicing onions, chopping parsley, or dicing meats.
Each of Asai's Hayabusa knives is individually hand-forged beginning with an aogami super (blue super) carbon steel core (hagane). The smaller crystalline size of this carbon steel results in superior edge holding when compared to nearly any other steel. Many knifemakers and users feel that aogami super is among the best carbon steels used on kitchen knives today. At 1.4-1.5% carbon and .3-.5% chromium, aogami super combines limited rust resistance with carbon steel performance. The central core is surrounded by two layers of stainless steel with a thin layer of nickel set in between to prevent carbon migration during forging.This time consuming process creates a knife with outstanding edge holding and a higher level of corrosion resistance than pure carbon blades. In addition, it creates a unique, attractive visual line between the layers -- which gets all the more dramatic with use. The blade is distal tapered for optimal balance and has an extremely thin, keen edge for the highest performance. Because this knife is forged from carbon steel, we recommend using camellia oil to avoid rust.
The "Wa" style handle is octagon in shape and is sculpted from macassar ebony with a pakkawood ferrule. This natural, ambidextrous handle is easy to grip and lasts a lifetime. Octagonal handles are very popular among professional chefs because they are extremely comfortable even when used for hours at a time. Like other kitchen knives, this knife should not be put in a dishwasher.

Thalman Makes Nine Saves For Yale
BETHLEHEM, Pa. – The Yale men's soccer team did a number of things right in its first road game of the season. Unfortunately for the Bulldogs, one lapse was all it took for it to end with a disappointing result. Joe Puleo scored the only goal of the game at 29:49 to lift Lehigh to a 1-0 victory over Yale on a muggy afternoon at the Ulrich Sports Complex.
The Mountain Hawks (1-1-1) had the better of the play in the first half, outshooting the Bulldogs 11-5.
Puleo's goal came when he took a long chip pass from Kevin Struck, made a couple of moves and fired a shot that beat Yale goalkeeper Bobby Thalman.
The second half was a different story.
"We really stormed back and put them under a lot of pressure and created a lot of danger," Yale head coach Brian Tompkins said.
Kevin Michalak and Nick Alers both had shots that were stopped. Brad Rose and Peter Jacobson also had opportunities. Yale applied some good pressure in the final minutes and had two corner kicks in the last 40 seconds but couldn't capitalize.
"Overall I thought it was a strong road performance," Tompkins said. "Hopefully we will learn from it and benefit from the experience."
Thalman finished with nine saves for the Bulldogs. Lehigh goalkeeper Ciaran Nugent stopped five shots to post the shutout.
Yale is back in action on Friday, hosting Quinnipiac. Kickoff at Reese Stadium is slated for 7 p.m.

Kevin Maples never expected to help organizations rescue children from sexual abuse, provide jobs for women, or eradicate poverty when he searched ChristianVolunteering.org for a volunteer opportunity.
Working with children was a passion of Shannon's for years. A previous "Big Sister", Shannon searched for volunteer opportunities in her new city of Pittsburgh when she moved there in 2008.
"Your website was a great help, I will be graduating college next year and wanted some opportunities to put on my resume and give me some much needed experience."
Christina Anderson was unemployed after 2008 layoffs at a prominent national bank. As an HR professional, Christina knew what to do during her season of job searching and uncertainty; she volunteered.
Sojourn Care equips volunteers to visit and love those most in need. The organization′s volunteer coordinator offers his thanks: "Thank you very much for providing this service!"
"Christie was a college student that volunteered and she was fantastic," says the director of Technology Playground. "What surprised me most was that she gave more of her time than she needed...just because."
Denver Rescue Mission posted two opportunities on ChristianVolunteering.org to volunteer in their soup kitchen and to serve as a summer intern. Since 2007, they have received 115 volunteer matches.
In the past 4 years, ChristianVolunteering.org provided 27 full-time AmeriCorps members to BMA's after school sites and 16.5 full-time members to EGC.

Mass. lawmakers embrace early voting bill
BOSTON (AP) — A bill that would allow for early voting in Massachusetts during presidential elections and for online voter registration has cleared the state House of Representatives.
The bill was approved 141-10 on Wednesday. It now goes to the Senate.
Under the measure, voters could cast ballots at polling places in their cities or towns up to two weeks before a presidential election, excluding weekends. If given final approval, early voting could take effect for the 2016 election.
More than 30 other states allow some form of early voting and more than a dozen offer online voter registration.
Supporters say the proposals would increase participation in the electoral process in Massachusetts.
The House rebuffed a Republican-backed effort to require voters to show identification before early voting, but agreed to study the question further.

A reader has asked a philosophical question on Ascension which looked at several spiritual traditions (Christianity, Buddhism, Shaivism, Vedanta), that spurs this comment.
The response may not be of interest to all readers. It may only be relevant to those who are explaining 2012 and Ascension matters in terms of cross-cultural spirituality.
As we Starseeds turn to the task of explaining what on Earth is happening and explain it to widely-varying audiences, many at different levels of comprehension, we encounter some difficulties that we need to watch for and avoid.
One predictable pitfall is the equating of various non-equatable interpretations with each other.
The very simplest way I could put the matter is that, if we critique the arguments of a person who says that 2012 will end in doom and gloom by comparing them with those of a person who says that everything is maya or illusion, what we are doing is comparing a person arguing from the relative level of existence with one arguing from an absolute level. If we aren't careful in how we approach this task, we may end up as confused as we've made our readers be.
Gloom and doom happen on a physical or Third-Dimensional level. Everything being illusion is a viewpoint characteristic of the highest Transcendental or Absolute level of existence, not characteristic of the physical or Third-Dimensional level. In answering questions, we need to sort out the various levels or dimensions that are being discussed.
Let me illustrate by referring to a saying I used some time earlier: "Die before you die." Two deaths are being referred to. As long as we think both are physical deaths (Third Dimensional), the saying will not yield its meaning. But when we see that a spiritual death (death of the ego and higher dimensional) is being discussed alongside a physical death (death of the body and Third Dimensional), the saying yields its meaning: Cause the death of the ego before experiencing the death of the body, if you wish to be enlightened while alive.
So again, as we begin to look at esoteric Buddhist doctrines relative to enlightenment and compare them to everyday strands of Christian doctrine relative to, say, the Rapture, or Hindu dualistic doctrine and compare it to Hindu non-dualistic, we absolutely have to remember that what life looks like on the relative plane is different than what it looks like on the absolute plane (if the absolute could be said to be a plane, which it really can't).
Many, many a ship of interpretation has foundered on these rocks.
As we discuss dimensions of reality more in the time ahead, we'll experience yet more confusion, I think, because life viewed from each higher dimension – Fourth, Fifth and beyond – I would imagine, will look radically different than life viewed from this Third-Dimensional one. So a lot will depend on us identifying what level of reality and understanding the people are speaking from whose arguments we're looking at and what level of reality our arguments are being pitched from.
It may be fine to assess the arguments of one who interprets physical reality from an absolute standpoint, providing we identify what we're doing and providing we assess them on their own terms (although how many of us have that understanding? I certainly don't), but one can readily see that it won't yield fruitful results to try to reduce an argument from an absolute level to a relative one so as to compare and contrast them. They are apples and oranges.
That having been said, a second necessity plays upon us Starseeds who have signed on to be interpreters of the new reality from a terrestrial standpoint, and that is the necessity to explain things in comprehensible language, language that our readers can understand. And our readership is the widest possible or imaginable because everyone will want to know what's happening and we have only a few short weeks or months to do the explaining when that explaining begins.
We often hear our sources admit that they are using language suitable to our understanding. When I called the Father the "conditioned Brahman," the Divine Mother chastised me in the following manner:
Steve Beckow: When you use the word "the Father," are you referring to the conditioned Brahman? And if you are, could you tell us about your aspect as the transcendental Absolute?
Divine Mother: Many who listen do not understand … these terms.
SB: Yes, I realize that.
DM: And part of my desire is to make [myself] very clear, [so] that people do understand. So, ensure, beloved, that you do make these terms very clear for your readers and listeners.
SB: I will. But if you would just confirm for me that you are speaking about the conditioned Brahman rather than the Transcendental Absolute, I can do the rest.
DM: Yes, that is exactly what I am speaking of. (1)
This was a great revelation to me. Up till this time I was beginning to think that some of what our sources were saying was not muscular enough. But the Mother revealed that they were aiming their talks at a level that the majority of listeners could understand. If we terrestrials did this, others would accuse us of not understanding things properly. But the Mother speaks for comprehension and doesn't care what Earthly reviewers may think.
Sanat Kumara also revealed this same intention:
"I try to use language that is completely understandable, not only to you, my beloved Steve, my beloved Graham, and my beloved Linda, but to all of our listeners; I try to use language that will make common sense to each of you." (2)
The galactics too practice this measured and responsible approach to communications. Witness SaLuSa:
"I am SaLuSa from Sirius, and on behalf of the Galactic Federation I am always pleased to present my views to you. They are measured for your enlightenment, as we do realize that they cannot meet each of you at your own level of understanding." (3)
Since the time the Divine Mother chided me, I too have tried to make what I say more comprehensible, sacrificing a fastidious desire for accuracy to the the need for comprehensibility. The need for comprehensibility is one factor to pay attention to and the need to sort out the levels of reality we are discussing is a second factor. The assignment for us Starseeds as interpreters of events and the new approaching reality is to walk this difficult tightrope between accuracy and comprehensibility.

Frankie Albert
Frankie Albert was born on January 27, 1920 in Chicago, Illinois and raised in Glendale, California, he was a charismatic leader, a multi-talented and ingenious quarterback who earned All-America recognition at Stanford University and Pro Bowl honors with the San Francisco 49ers.
At only 5'9" and 130 lbs., Albert played only one year of varsity football at Glendale High School and was named CIF player of the year. At Stanford Albert became the first T-formation quarterback in college football. Coached by the innovative Clark Shaughnessy, he played an integral role in popularizing this offensive strategy that revolutionized the game. Shaughnessy described Albert as "a superb ball handler, a magician with the ball and a gifted field general, wonderfully observing, a great left-handed passer and a great kicker. He was neither strong nor fast. His talents were intellectual and psychological; he could fool people, and by temperament he ate up that sort of assignment."
A two-time All-America in 1940 and 1941, Albert was also credited with inventing the bootleg play, in which the quarterback fakes a hand off and then runs wide with the ball hidden on his hip. In addition to his quarterback duties, Albert also played defense and served as the team's place kicker and punter, still holding the record for the longest punt at Stanford at 79 yards. In 1940 he led the Stanford "Wow Boys" to a 10-0 record, including a 21-13 victory over Nebraska in the 1941 Rose Bowl.
After serving in the Navy in World War II, Albert signed with the San Francisco 49ers in 1946 for their debut in the All American Football Conference, becoming the first in a long line of great franchise quarterbacks. In 1948 he led the AAFC with 29 touchdown passes and shared the MVP award with Cleveland's famed Otto Graham; in addition he was named Pro Football Player of the Year by Sport Magazine. Albert played for the 49ers from 1946 to 1952 and then for the Calgary Stampeders in the CFL in 1953. At age 36, he returned to the 49ers as head coach, compiling a 19-17-1 record over three seasons.
After retiring from football, Albert acquired a minority share in the 49ers. He was inducted into the College Hall of Fame in 1956 and the Rose Bowl Hall of Fame in 1989. He and his high school sweetheart Marty were married 60 years and raised three daughters, all of whom attended Stanford. Albert died in Palo Alto in 2002.
Paul Child
Paul Child emerged as the first superstar for the San Jose Earthquakes in the North American Soccer League (NASL), leading the league in scoring in 1974 with 15 goals and six assists and propelling San Jose to the playoffs, earning First-Team All-Star honors in the process.
A native of Birmingham, England, Child came to the United States in 1972 from Aston Villa's youth system to play for the NASL's Atlanta Chiefs. After two seasons in Atlanta was traded to San Jose, where he excelled and played for the next six seasons, electrifying the Quakes' offense with his prolific scoring touch and finishing as franchise's all-time leader goal scoring leader with 61.
Paul Child said, "I loved playing for San Jose in front of the great fans. There were a lot of great players there that made me a better player and were a joy to play with. This is a special honor because San Jose is where it all started for me."
Child appeared in 149 outdoor games for San Jose, and in 1975, he was named Most Valuable Player of the NASL Indoor Tournament, leading the Quakes to the title at the Cow Palace in San Francisco, and scoring seven goals in four games.
Child was named to the U.S. National Team and earned two caps in 1973. Over his career, he played 239 games for four different NASL teams and scored 102 goals, ranking fifth all-time in NASL history. He was inducted into the U.S. Soccer Hall of Fame in 2003 and into the San Jose Earthquakes Hall of Fame in 2012.
Gary Cunningham
A South Bay coaching legend, Gary Cunningham retired in 2008 after serving as Bellarmine College Prep's head baseball coach for 21 seasons, amassing 526 career victories.
Cunningham's baseball career began at Menlo-Atherton High School where he graduated in 1966. He went on to play centerfield for the San Jose State Spartans for two stellar seasons, establishing a career batting average of .332 while setting three single season and seven two-year batting records.
In 1971, after a brief stint in professional baseball with the San Diego Padres, he began his coaching career at Lynbrook High School. He later taught and coached at Del Mar High School and Mission College, where he was named 1983 Community College Coach of the Year as softball coach, before taking the reins at Bellarmine.
At Bellarmine, Cunningham coached the Bell's to nine WCAL titles in the extremely competitive West Catholic Athletic League. His teams won the CCS Championship three times and had an overall win-loss record of 526-185. Some of his fondest memories include coaching his sons Kevin, Kelly and Patrick. He also coached several Major League Baseball players including Kevin Frandsen who currently plays for the Philadelphia Phillies, and Pat Burrell, who earned a World Series title with the San Francisco Giants.
In the coaching community, Cunningham was known as an expert and connoisseur of trick plays, and while he was also a brilliant tactician and teacher of baseball fundamentals, he enjoyed springing the occasional surprise on an unsuspecting opponent, usually with great success.
Cunningham coached baseball and softball in high school and community college for 38 years (1971 – 2008) where his teams won league and divisional titles in each sport at both levels. His overall coaching record stands at 823 – 375.
His countless honors include CCS Honor Coach for Baseball in 2006, American Baseball Coaches Association Regional Coach of the Year in 2006, California Coaches Association Baseball Coach of the Year in 2007 and Santa Clara County Hot Stove Lifetime Achievement Award winner in 2009. San Jose State also presented him with a Lifetime Achievement Award in 2009. In 2012, Cunningham was inducted into the Bellarmine College Preparatory Athletic Hall of Fame.
Tara VanDerveer
In a storied 33-year coaching career, Tara VanDerveer has established herself as one of the top coaches in the history of collegiate and international women's basketball.
An ambassador for Stanford University and the sport of college basketball, VanDerveer has enjoyed an unprecedented level of success, with an energetic and positive approach to the game as her trademark. A 14-time conference coach of the year (12 Pac-12, two Big Ten), VanDerveer has accumulated an impressive 861-200 record during her career.
VanDerveer possesses the third-highest career winning percentage among Division I women's basketball coaches, and has won two NCAA Championships and 23 conference titles (20 Pac-12, three Big Ten). Her team's 2013 trip to the NCAA Tournament was the 26th postseason appearance and 10th Final Four trip of her career.
In 1996, VanDerveer led the USA Basketball National Team in a undefeated season, going 60-0 and ultimately winning the gold medal in Atlanta, and VanDeerver was honored as the 1996 USA Basketball National Coach of the Year. She was also selected as the 1996 USOC Elite Basketball Coach of the Year.
On December 22, 2010, VanDerveer became the fifth Division I women's basketball coach to win 800 games with a Cardinal win over the University of San Francisco. Entering the 2013-14 season VanDerveer is six wins shy of becoming the fifth Division I women's basketball coach to win 900 games.
Regarded in the sport as one of the most well-respected and dynamic coaches in the country, Vanderveer's coaching tree includes many of the brightest minds in the sport, as eighteen of her players and assistant coaches have gone on to pursue their careers in coaching and basketball management. VanDerveer was inducted into the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame in 2002, and in 2011 she was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.
