[Gary Nielsen] will leave his job May 1 to work with Ruby in a transition period, said Lisa Contreras, KVOA news director. \"He made Channel 4 and Eyewitness News what it is today,\" she said. \"He is KVOA.\" Ruby grew up in Chicago and was working in TV sales there before taking over the helm at KVOA. He was hired by then- KVOA owner Don Diamond. Ruby has served as president of the Conquistadores and numerous other civic and business groups.

Stepping down
[Jon Ruby] will leave the NBC affiliate Aug. 1, six days before he turns 65 - but long after he began making his mark on charitable causes here. Ruby has served on a number of TV industry boards, but he's also volunteered for such organizations as United Way, 88 Crime, YMCA of Tucson, the Boys and Girls Clubs and Tucson Medical Center Foundation. One of his favorite groups is the Tucson Conquistadores, which raises money for youth sports and with which Ruby has been involved since 1979. Ruby and KVOA anchorwoman Patty Weiss were recently named to the Silver Circle of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences. Weiss, who has worked with Ruby for 27 years, said she values Ruby's leadership style and news emphasis, as well as his loyalty and empathy for employees. That personal touch is one thing for which [Rick Krivel] is known. Steve Spitzer, a client of Krivel's for 25 years and owner of Spitzer Financial LLC, often turned to Krivel for advice.
'Sal's pals' out to make him an all-star; Fasano a little skeptical; 'It's more of a farce than anything,' backup catcher says
Like [Rory Fitzpatrick] fans' campaign pushed the Vancouver Canucks journeyman to finish third among Western Conference defencemen in voting for the 2007 NHL All- Star Game, the Canadian chapter of [Sal Fasano]'s Pals has launched a Web site dedicated to getting the career .219 hitter sent to San Francisco for baseball's 2007 All-Star Game. \"I don't know what to say,\" said a somewhat stunned Fasano recently after viewing a printout of the vote4sal.com homepage. \"Obviously, it's more of a farce than anything. It's actually kind of funny, and I appreciate the fans for doing it, but it's something that won't happen. I don't think Major League Baseball would let that happen.\" \"It's a democracy, anyone can be voted on,\" said [Jon Ruby], a Yankees fan at heart. \"I don't want to see Ivan Rodriguez for the 14th time. I think it would be much more interesting to see Sal Fasano. Let's bring some fresh blood into the game.
It's business as usual at KVOA, despite ownership change
Why change things when you have the No. 1 show in town? You don't. Channel 4 had a change in ownership at midnight, Dec. 31. That's the only thing that has changed at NBC affiliate KVOA, according to station President and General Manager Jon F. Ruby. The new owner, the Evening Post Publishing Co., based in Charleston, S.C. \"felt that it acquired a fundamentally sound television station and didn't see any need to do any more than pay for it and move on down the road,\" Ruby said. \"Our goals are and will always be that we want to remain No. 1 with a strong news presence in this town, which is what we've always striven for. That will always be our main goal and our main objective.\" (excerpt)
This week's new talks
[Jon Savage] is very much the alpha male of British music journalism, his credentials established beyond reasonable doubt by his definitive survey of punk rock, England's Dreaming. He's not a man who churns out books relentlessly but they tend to be worth the wait, with his recent tome, 1966, no exception. The book explores that most febrile of pop-cultural years in which the Beatles unleashed Tomorrow Never Knows, Dylan dropped Blonde On Blonde and the western world's brightest young things reacted to the twin horrors of Vietnam and nuclear paranoia by bingeing on LSD, having lots of casual sex and wearing unusual trousers. Flippancy aside, 1966 is a year whose tropes and trends continue to loom large, and Savage animates and dissects them with typical flair and rigour. Here, he'll be talking to fellow pop journalist-turned-author Kevin Sampson about an era that haunts our culture to this day.

CloudPay aims to shift credit card fees to local nonprofit giving campaign
\"We're changing people's behavior,\" [Jon Underwood] said. \"Once they try it, they have a smile on their face.\" \"Ninety percent of what I buy is local,\" [Claire Palazzo] said. \"That's what it's all about -- supporting each other. I use a local credit card company but that percentage goes for handling my credit cards. I'd rather have it go to local organizations in the community to help those in need.\" \"It's a way I can support a nonprofit that I really believe in almost on a daily basis in my choices in how I spend money,\" said Armand Ruby, a local water quality consultant and angel investor in CloudPay. \"An impressive amount of money could be raised for nonprofits. It could really be a game-changer for nonprofits.\"
Premature Ruby is a born fighter
\"At that age every single day matters, and certainly a week makes so much difference,\" says 35-year-old [Claire]. \"With [Ruby Darby] I went into labour and actually had a 27-hour labour and that actually gave her an extra day.\" Which is not to say Ruby did not have her own complications. During her first 18weeks she fended off infections including one potentially fatal bout of serratia whose outbreak in January of this year forced the temporary closure of the unit. The outbreak left seven babies affected while one died from the condition which can cause various infections, pneumonia and blood poisoning in people with a weakened immune system. And Claire and husband [Jon Darby], a 35-year-old business manager, put much of their lives on hold as they shuttled back and forth between the hospital. \"I would go every day to see her while Jon was at work, then I would come home and then we would both go back in the evening,\" says Claire. \"It was really hard. There were days when you came out really disheartened. \"But over the time you could see her gradually putting on weight and getting stronger.\" Part of the reason for this growth was Claire's own commitment to breastfeeding. A premature baby needs the antibodies which it has not received by staying full term in the womb and cannot be fed on formula milk. \"They had explained it all to me when [Lauren] was born and how important it is for premature babies so I was ready for Ruby,\" says Claire. \"I was fortunate because I was able to expressmilk and had a very good supply from the beginning. They were then able to feed Ruby through a tube. She was only having really tiny amounts but regularly.
