New format due to last week’s document crash. Comments? Also, message traffic is light so if you have some words of wisdom, I’d appreciate your contribution. Otherwise, I AM going to ask Jasper Helm to elucidate on how French archers caused McDonalds. It’s either that or start issue to issue Rudy coverage with my political rebuttals. I have to fill up the electrons some how. So what did you do this week, on your summer vacation, or in your life? It’s it sad that we, your fellow alums, have to wait for an obit to find out all the great stuff some one did, the great life they had, or some accomplishment or other. And, you know no one can tell a story as well as the person who lived it. I think sometimes obits are written by the bored funeral bozo. “yup, another stiff, here’s all the boring facts, with the joy, wonder, and importance sucked out”. Recently I pushed out an obit for a fellow Prepster, and it didn’t mention that he loved to walk on his hands every chance he got. He said it impressed the girls. I was impressed and I’m no girl. But, that never made it into his obit. I think that was an essence of his playfulness. It’s a shame to lose those things. |

Worcester Telegram & Gazette, Inc. BRETTON WOODS, N.H. -- Rudy Giuliani would seem to have all the credentials a candidate for president could want: A hero of 9/11, a crime-busting federal prosecutor, a two-term Republican mayor in an overwhelmingly Democratic city and one of the most admired politicians in the country. He's got a big problem, though. First, he has to be nominated by Republicans who don't yet know his views on social issues. "People remember how he provided leadership at a time the city needed it and the country needed it," coin-company executive Jeff Marsh, 41, says as he waits to greet Giuliani at the annual dinner of the Littleton (N.H.) Chamber of Commerce. While Marsh's admiration of Giuliani the man is evident, his support for Giuliani the presidential candidate is no sure thing. Giuliani's advocacy of abortion rights gives him "some pause," Marsh says ruefully. The question is this: Can the thrice-married New Yorker -- a supporter of abortion rights, gay rights and gun control -- win the nomination of a Republican Party that has become increasingly dependent on and influenced by conservative Christians? Maybe not, says Tony Fabrizio, a GOP pollster who advised Bob Dole's 1996 presidential campaign. "As a presidential candidate, Rudy Giuliani should absolutely be taken seriously," Fabrizio says. "As a contender for the Republican nomination, he should be taken significantly less seriously. He has the stature to be president, but how does he get the Republican nomination? That is the fundamental disconnect." Republicans tend to stick with front-runners. In each of the last nine presidential elections, the GOP contender who led the field the year before the election has won the nomination. Despite Giuliani's edge at the starting line, however, there is widespread skepticism among insiders such as Fabrizio whether he'll be there at the finish. With the war in Ahead of the 'front-runner' At least at the moment, Giuliani leads the Republican field, a USA TODAY/Gallup Poll finds. He holds a narrow advantage over Arizona Sen. John McCain, who is often identified as the party's front-runner. In January, 31% of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents said Giuliani was their likely preference for president; 27% chose McCain. Former House speaker Newt Gingrich was third at 10%. In a head-to-head contest, Giuliani beat McCain 50%-42%. Giuliani, who declined to be interviewed for this story, also shows appeal beyond the GOP. Dubbed " "I have great admiration for how he handled
everything in "I think it touched everybody," she says of his take-charge actions on that day, tears welling in her eyes even now. As fondly remembered as Giuliani is for responding to
Sept. 11, however, most Americans don't know much else about him. Barely one
in five Republicans knew that he supports abortion rights and civil unions
for same-sex couples, the When they were told about his stance on those issues, his star dimmed. One in five Republicans said his views would "rule him out as a candidate" they could support. That included one-third of those who attend church every week, an important base of the GOP that makes up a third of party loyalists. Another 25% of Republicans said his views made them less likely to support him, nearly double the proportion who said they made them more likely to support him. Even some Republicans who see Giuliani as a stronger general-election candidate question if he can be nominated. A Gallup Poll taken Friday through Sunday showed Republicans split evenly over whether Giuliani or McCain had a better chance of winning the nomination, though by 17 percentage points they thought Giuliani had a better shot at defeating the Democratic candidate in November. "He's a fine guy, and he certainly has a sterling
record as mayor of "I don't think it's likely," Lovejoy says.
He is backing former Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council, calls Giuliani "unacceptable" as a nominee. Conservative Christian leaders haven't targeted him because they assume "he's not going to go anywhere" once the campaign begins in earnest -- but Perkins says they're ready to mobilize against him if he seems to gain traction. Losing his luster? Giuliani's strategists recognize his vulnerabilities. A campaign memo leaked to the New York Daily News last month and acknowledged as authentic by spokeswoman Sunny Mindel listed some of them: questions about his private-sector businesses, which have made him a millionaire and entangled him with clients from thoroughbred racing to the energy industry. Controversies around his current and former wives, a soap-opera saga played out in public. His stance on social issues, to the left of any major GOP contender since the party adopted an unyielding anti-abortion line in its 1980 platform. "Probs (problems) that are insurm (insurmountable)?" asks the memo. "Does any of it cause RWG (Giuliani) to lose his lustre?" In "The single most important part of leadership ... is to figure out what you believe, figure out what's important, have convictions, stand for something," he says in his speech here, stepping to the side of the podium to get closer to the audience and punching his hand in the air for emphasis. "I would prefer to support for president or head of a corporation, mayor, head of an anything -- somebody who stands for something, even if I don't agree with them completely." He cites a bipartisan trio -- Abraham Lincoln, Franklin Roosevelt and Ronald Reagan -- as great presidents who earned support even from those who might have disagreed with them on this or that. "I don't even agree with myself on everything," he jokes. Famously combative as mayor, he tries to convey a warmer side on the stump. He repeatedly refers to his wife, Judith, a petite woman in a black turtleneck and oversized pearls who smiles from the audience; they walk out of the ballroom hand-in-hand. They were married in 2003 after his messy divorce from Donna Hanover, who says she learned they were separating when he announced it at a news conference. Giuliani's first marriage was annulled after 14 years. Giuliani has honed his skills as a motivational
speaker in considerable demand since 9/11; Forbes magazine estimates he
charges $100,000 a speech, though he declines to accept even travel expenses
from the "Did you know I was from Actually, his hometown may turn out to be yet another vulnerability. Not since DeWitt Clinton won the
governorship in 1817 has a Survive and prevail Giuliani backed away from a tough contest before. In 2000, he had formed an exploratory committee and begun raising money for a Senate campaign against Hillary Clinton but then abandoned it after he was diagnosed with prostate cancer. He is now recovered. This time, he's formed an exploratory committee and
started fundraising with a goal of $25 million by March 31, when Federal
Election Commission reports will provide a comparison among presidential
contenders. He's begun hiring campaign staffers in Republicans in the Palmetto State will judge the contenders based on "the entire package, not a single issue," Katon Dawson, South Carolina's Republican chairman, says when asked about Giuliani's views on abortion and gay rights. Still, he adds: "Those are issues important to the core of our party." A Giuliani game plan might go like this: Finish in the
top tier of candidates in If all that happens, he could be well positioned for
the unprecedented crush of primaries on Feb. 5 that may include "We feel very good about the consolidation of primaries on an early date," says Michael DuHaime, a former political director of the Republican National Committee who is poised to run Giuliani's campaign. Contests in those big states would favor candidates with high name identification and deep pockets -- that is, candidates like him. Some Republicans believe Giuliani would be better able than McCain to deal with anti-Washington sentiment and the anti-GOP tide that cost the party control of Congress in November's elections. "I'll tell you who's going to win the
nomination," declares Bill Williams, 72, of Franconia, head of the The next day, before heading to The reception in "So why wouldn't you run?" Anita Siegfriedt of Fox News asks.

The New York Times Bill Polian was busy. ''The details,'' he was saying. ''All the details that go with being in the Super Bowl.'' What details? ''We're missing 250 passes for the buses taking our families to the game. Nobody can find the bus passes.'' In a Colts jacket, Colts shorts and white sneakers, Polian, the club president hired after the 1997 season, had interrupted the search for the bus passes at the team's beach hotel here Thursday to recall the decisions that assembled much of the American Football Conference championship team that will oppose the Bears today in Super Bowl XLI. One draft decision will always ring loud and clear: the choice that year between the quarterbacks Peyton Manning and Ryan Leaf. In hindsight, it was an easy decision. Manning is now the N.F.L.'s best passer, the Colts' face and arm. Leaf soon self-destructed as one of the draft's biggest busts. But at the time, who knew? Manning or Leaf? After wrestling with the decision, Polian and the Colts' personnel people took Manning. ''We were worried,'' Polian said, ''that Ryan, who had played only three years at Washington State compared to Peyton's four years at Tennessee, had not matured enough to stand up to the pressure of being both the No. 1 choice and a quarterback.'' Manning has stood up to that pressure as few quarterbacks
have. Leaf, taken by ''If we didn't take Peyton,'' Polian said, glancing at the Super Bowl decorations at the hotel, ''we wouldn't be here.'' Notice the we. Just as Polian credits Coach Tony Dungy for having guided the Colts here, he talked about ''great personnel directors'' like Tom Telesco and Dom Anile, now a consultant, who worked with ''our great scouting staff'' in identifying blue-chip talent that fit the team's needs. ''We want players with good football temperament, players who have reliability, who like the game,'' Polian said. ''Players who are durable, who have good football intelligence as to what's happening out there, and a good work ethic.'' When the Colts took running back Edgerrin James with the No. 4 choice in 1999, many of their fans were disappointed. They had hoped for Ricky Williams, but the Colts knew that with Manning at quarterback, they would need a running back who not only would be a good receiver, but would also block blitzing linebackers. ''We knew Edgerrin was a totally grounded guy,'' Polian said. ''Ricky had other interests.'' When James departed a year ago to sign with Some players have fallen to the Colts through the cracks in the draft, notably wide receiver Reggie Wayne in 2001. ''We were looking for a defensive back, so we traded down in the first round from the 24th pick to the 30th, but there wasn't a defensive back we liked, so we decided to take the best player,'' Polian said. ''Reggie wasn't a blazer. He ran the 40 in 4.52, but he ran the best routes.'' Tight end Dallas Clark, the Colts' leading receiver in the current playoffs, was the 24th choice in the 2003 first round. '' Polian isn't known for preying on the free-agent market, but when Adam Vinatieri, perhaps the best clutch place-kicker in league history, was having problems negotiating a new contract with the Patriots last year, Polian pounced. Just as he pounced on Dungy early in 2002 after the Buccaneers dismissed him. ''We wanted to change to a speed-oriented defense,'' Polian said. ''And when Tony was available, I told Jim Irsay'' -- the Colts' owner -- '' 'That's our guy.' Tony is the architect of the speed-oriented defense. He's also the greatest role model for our players.'' Two decades ago, Polian built
the Born and raised in the Bronx, he played running back and
safety at Mount St. Michael High School and at ''That's when I got to know Marv Levy, who was coaching the Alouettes,'' he said. ''Marv taught me everything I know. All those qualities we look for in players, those are the qualities Marv always talked about.'' When Levy went to the Chiefs, Polian
accompanied him as a scout before going to ''Marv's always leaving me messages,'' Polian said. ''After we beat the Patriots, it was: 'I heard you won. Good luck. Marv.' '' Enough about Marv Levy, Tony Dungy and all those Colts players. Bill Polian was off to search for those 250 bus passes. LOAD-DATE: February 4, 2007 |

From: Deborah Banks (1992) John, I was saddened to read of the passing of Professor Petrocine. He was my instructor for Business Law in the early 1990's. I remember his terrific sense of humor. To this day I love to share a piece of advice with my colleagues at work that he had told to my class (I am still not sure if he was serious). My sincere sympathies to his family. He will be greatly missed. Sincerely, Deborah M. Banks '92 {JR: After some prompting, I got the story out of her! } {Begin Quote} During a discussion on liability, Professor Petrocine told us, with a completely serious, and straight face, that if you ever accidentally run someone over with your car, and you look in your rear view mirror and they are still moving, back over them again. Your liability will be much greater in terms of taking care of the injured persons medical bills for the rest of their life. When he was finished, the class was quiet, not sure what to say, until Professor Petrocine cracked a smile. He had a way of making a point that I will never forget! {End Quote} {JR: Now I am shocked, ShockED, SHOCKED to hear such legal advice being dispensed by a teacher at an allegedly Catholic Institution. Why we shall have to pass a law that no car shall be allowed to reverse. } {JR: Seriously thanks for sharing that story. I can
only imagine the joy that he took in telling that whopper. But when you think
of it, he had a point. But with today’s forensics, they could tell that you
backed up. Look at that poor woman in |

Camilla will travel with 20 staff, taking up the whole of the first and club
class section in a scheduled Prince Charles is to fly to {End Quote} And Al Gore drives an SUV! Seriously, when the socialists want more control to solve an “issue”, look at what they do. It has nothing to do with the issue. If it was NOT “global warming” then it WOULD be “global cooling”. It’s all about control. Because the socialists are smarter than you or I and know best what is good for us. Now, I’m not a violent fellow, but I know what’s good for them. Practice what they preach. Hold their breath. Hot air is causing global warming. I like the Amish. At least they practice what they preach and leave others alone to do as they see fit. |
And that’s the last word.
