Chris Christen
On Thursday, Feb. 16, Terry sity of Nebraska-Lincoln. His New technology has called
Kroeger, publisher and CEO
of the Omaha World-Herald,
will discuss the recent sale of
the newspaper to Warren Buffett and Berkshire Hathaway.
He will talk about the future
implications of the sale — how
it will affect the business and
news operations of the paper
and some of the history leading
up to the purchase, as well as
some of the major players who
were involved in the decision.
Kroeger joined the WorldHerald in 1985 and became the
sixth publisher in the newspaper’s history in January 2008.
He is a graduate of the Univer-

his career building one of the
world’s largest online brokerages — will be honored as the
Omaha Press Club’s next “Face
on the Barroom Floor” on
Monday, Feb. 13.
In 1975, with partners and
a $12,500 investment, Ricketts founded the company now

by Berkshire Hathaway will
keep ownership of the newspaper in Omaha.

Club but that it is of such major importance to this city that
it requires a place in the committee’s monthly educational

Digital Submissions to Enhance the
OPC Excellence in Journalism Awards
By Nicole Lindquist
OPC Board Member
There are a couple of exciting changes to the Omaha Press
Club’s Excellence in Journalism
Awards competition for 2012.
This year’s contest is made
possible by the generosity of six
sponsors. ConAgra is a Gold
Level sponsor, and All Makes
Office Equipment Company,
Bailey Lauerman, the Jewish
Federation of Omaha Foundation, Swanson Russell and
Universal Information Systems
are all Bronze Level sponsors.
Through these substantial
sponsorships, the second big
change is that the EIJ contest
is going online for the 2012
competition! This will allow us
to save on mailing expenses and
printing costs. Entrants will
save time and money by applying online and judges can score
entries anytime from anywhere.
With the funds from the
sponsorships covering a large
majority of the online database
setup fees, a larger percentage
of the entry fees will be put
toward our mission of funding
journalism scholarships to local
college students.
The contest will open Monday, Feb. 13 and run through
Friday, March 30. Contest
submissions will be handled
through the Better Newspaper
Contest website, www.betternewspapercontest.com.
Entry guidelines will be sent
to those who have previously
submitted entries; if you would
also like to receive the guidelines, e-mail nicolelindquist@
yahoo.com.
If you have any questions or
experience any difficulty with
the online entry form, please
contact Nicole Lindquist at
[email protected]
or call (402) 981-2289.
And save the date for
the Excellence in Journalism Awards/Journalists of
Excellence Hall of Fame
dinner: Saturday, June 9.

Chris Christen has been a
member of the Omaha Press
Club since 1985, when she was
recruited by, as she said, “the
late great” Jim Denney. She has
been a board director, and is a
past president of the club, but
her most heroic act has been
working with the Omaha Press
Club Show.
Denney produced the OPC
Show (along with Tom LaHood) when Christen became
a club member, and Christen
became involved in the show
the next year.
“I think I spent most of my
first year being jealous of those
women who had solos,” Christen said. “That was my dream,
to be good enough to get a
solo.”

One of the lighter moments
at the Omaha Press Club Annual Meeting on Thursday, Jan.
26 was the empty chair that
president-elect Susan Eustice
left at the table for Chris Allen,
OPC’s president-in-residencein-Oman. Eustice shifted from
chair to chair when acting as
president to open the meeting
and to a different chair to close
out the meeting.
Eustice pressed board member Tom Becka into service to
read Allen’s president’s message, which elicited laughs.
Allen praised Eustice and past
president Wendy Townley for
stepping up to fill in for him.
He did say that he had warned
the nomination committee that
he had applied for a Fulbright
award, and he was honored that
he was elected despite that. He
noted, “As I step down and rejoin the board as past-president
and member, I want to urge
you to use the Press Club. Eat
here, meet friends here, laugh
here and celebrate here.
We need our members to
keep the Press Club healthy.”
Executive Director Steve Villamonte reported that the club
finished the year in the black after a difficult year. Close control
of food costs and a successful New Year’s Eve after-party
helped the club break even.
Committee chairs presented
reports, and the annual election
of officers was held.

An Update on
Chef Tom Molloy
A NOTE FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
We Did it Again!
By Steve Villamonte, CEC, BS
OPC Executive Director
By Steve Villamonte, CEC, BS
OPC Executive Director
January Winemaker’s Dinner: Lionel Havé, Steve Villamonte, Tommy Shaw
Hip, Hip, Hurray! We did it
once again — the Omaha Press
Club finished the year in the
black. This is great news considering the tough economic
times. I attribute the success
to my partner Christine, Chef
Jon, the efforts of all the committees, the board support, and
all of my hardworking staff.
Thank you all for the hard
work!
Winemaker’s Dinner
The January Winemaker’s
Dinner was fantastic and for
those who attended, you already knew that. The next
Winemaker’s Dinner is planned
for right before tax day — Saturday, April 14, and will feature
the distinct flavors of an Omaha
favorite, Executive Chef Tom
Shaw. Tom has had a vast career, which includes working as
executive chef at local country
clubs, owning Tommy Shaw’s
and, most recently, working
at Methodist Hospital. Tom
is working his newest venture,
an upscale catering operation,
partnering with Lionel Havé.
These two will definitely be a
hit.

Thanks Tom!
I want to send out a “Big
Thank You” to Executive Chef
Tom Molloy. You can read
more about Tom’s health crisis — and how you can help
in the story on this page. Tom
and I have worked together for
the past 17 years and he has
become a close personal friend
and godfather to my son Gabriel.
See you at the club!
For the past 10 years, Chef
Tom Molloy has been an integral part of the day-to-day
operations of the Press Club.
Tom has been a truly hard
worker — a quiet and dedicated employee.
Tom was diagnosed with
chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease (COPD) a little over a
year ago and continued to work
much of the time under severe
breathing complications. Tom
was supposed be on an oxygen
tank 24/7, as part of the treatment. Obviously an oxygen
tank cannot be in a professional
kitchen environment because
of the possible fire hazard, so he
did not follow doctor’s orders.
Instead, Tom — not wanting
to leave the club in a bind —
showed up for work each day
for the next year, until breathing became so difficult he had
to quit working altogether.
Tom is currently planning a
move back to his hometown
(St. Louis) to be near his family.
If you would like to make
a donation towards Tom’s expenses, you can do so through
the Press Club. (Note, however,
that your deduction will not be
tax deductible.) You can make
your checks payable to Tom
Molloy or to the Omaha Press
Club (put “Tom Molloy” in the
subject line of the check) and
drop it off or mail it to the club.

OPC NOON FORUM RECAP
Alberts Sized Up UNO Sports at Jan. 26 OPC Noon Forum
By Henry Cordes
OPC Communications Committee
Trev Alberts said one of the
most important lessons he
learned from his years playing
football is how to pick yourself up again when you’ve been
knocked down.
The former Nebraska football standout says that has
served him well in the last year,
helping him move on from
the difficult decision he made
as athletic director at UNO to
eliminate the school’s football
and wrestling teams.
Speaking Jan. 26 at the Press
Club’s latest noon forum, Alberts said he definitely wishes
he could change some things
about the way the matter was
handled. But he said he remains
convinced it was the right thing
in the long run for the future of
athletics at UNO.
Alberts was a late substitute
in the forum for UNO hockey
coach Dean Blais, who was
called out on the road recruiting. The forum, moderated
by Press Club president-elect
Bridget (Weide) Brooks, will be
broadcast at noon on Monday,
Feb. 13 on KIOS radio.
Alberts said when he came to
UNO nearly three years ago, he
had no idea of the depth of the
department’s financial problems. He said dropping football
and wrestling and moving up
to Division I competition in all
sports were critical to creating
fiscal stability.
He said the department has
already proven it can drive
more revenue competing at
Division I than it could in Division II. The Maverick men’s
basketball team will pull in at
least $260,000 in guarantees
for playing road games against
other Division I foes next year,
including games at Iowa State
and Wisconsin. That’s more
than double the total ticket
revenue that all of UNO’s DiPage 6 • Beyond -30-
UNO Athletic Director Trev Alberts
vision II sports — including
football — collected a year ago.
But Alberts said UNO has
been and will remain a hockey
school. Some 92 percent of the
school’s generated athletic revenues come from that sport, and
maximizing financial returns in
hockey will be critical to the department’s future.
“This is our Nebraska football,” he said.
Alberts said it’s too early to
talk about whether UNO will
ultimately build an on-campus
arena to house Maverick hockey. He said there are “a lot of
smart people”’ looking into
questions like whether it’s financially feasible and how big
such a facility would need to
be. He said he doesn’t want to
rush the process because UNO
only has “one chance at this.’”
While The CenturyLink
Center is a world-class facil-
ity, he said, its capacity is also
double the 8,300 fans UNO
typically draws for a hockey
game.

“You can draw your own
conclusions,” he said. “I believe
the right thing is going to happen for UNO.”
Press Club Members Making News
Omaha Press Club member Bill Ramsey was named Military Veteran of the Month
and was honored by the Ricketts family — co-owners of the Chicago Cubs — as
their guest at Wrigley Field in Chicago last September.
NEWS BITS ON LOCAL MEDIA HAPPENINGS
Media Notes
• Howard K. Marcus, of the Omaha
World-Herald, who has been with the
newspaper for 25 years, has been
promoted to Deputy Special Sections
Editor. Marcus, an OPC Foundation
trustee, is a past president of the club
and the foundation. He received an OPC
scholarship in 1982. Stephanie Ogren from the Daily
Nonpareil will join the special sections
team as a reporter-editor-designer.
Marcus and Ogren will both report to
Special Sections Editor Shelley Larsen, also an OPC member.
• Josie Loza is the Omaha World-Herald’s new momaha editor. She will leave
her nightlife reporter beat and use her
expertise in social media, creative content and networking to further grow
the website.
• Morning DJ Rich Denison has
moved to Wyoming. Denison was a frequent award winner in the Omaha Press
Club Excellence in Journalism Competition.
Chris Christen Profile
She has done more than
become a soloist in the show —
Christen has been the producer
of the Omaha Press Club Show
since Denney retired in 1996.
She was assistant producer in
1995, after which she took over
production of the whole show.
The OPC Show takes Christen and the show committee
about nine months to plan and
execute, and over the years, she
has seen a lot of changes.
The show moved from Peony
Park, to Holiday Inn Central
to The Rose Theater, during
which time they went from a
dinner theater to heavy hors
d’oeuvres.
“There was a misconception
that we were displeased with
The Rose,” Christen said. “We
loved performing at The Rose,
but patrons said they missed
the dinner, so we moved to the
Mid-America Center.”
Christen has also pared down
some of the costuming, which
helps the performers and the
overall bottom line.
• Kevin Kugler, host of “Unsportsmanlike Conduct” at 1620 The Zone,
has been named Nebraska Sportscaster
of the Year for the eighth time.
• KMTV meteorologist CT Thongklin
is taking a job as a meteorologist at RFD
network effective in March.
• Ros Mercio has been hired as director of sales at Journal Broadcast Group.
She joins Journal from Linn Broadcasting, where she was in Buffalo, NY.
• Wake up with Wingy ... again. Dave
Wingert has been hired by Omaha’s Big
O (101.9) as morning show host.
• Andy Ruback has been named
market manager of Omaha Metro Radio
Cluster at NRG Media.

• Omaha Press Club board member Al
Carl has left his position at Channel 3
and is moving back to his home base of
Kansas City. The search is on for a new
news director.
The show’s format has gone
from cabaret to Broadway and
now, back to cabaret.
“Each director and group of
writers has brought unique vision to our staging, and that has
kept it fun for our audiences
through the decades,” Christen
said.
Another regular feature to
the show is emcee Gary Sadlemyer. Christen said the show
writers, directors and producers
have tried to switch things up
so that Sadlemyer’s act is always
new.
“I love show night because of
the laughter that fills the room.
We never want the show to be
perceived as mean-spirited,”
Christen said.
This year’s show will be held
on March 31 at the Mid-America Center.
Condolences
The Omaha Press Club wishes to extend
its condolences to Chris Christen on the
passing of her mother, and to Susan Eustice on the loss of her father.
