Statement reveals Vincent Tan’;s cause for concern over Cardiff City transfers

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sun, 29 Dec 2013 09:12:00 +0800

As the dust settles on Malky Mackay's sacking by Cardiff City, the full details of the club's £50 million (RM273 million) summer spending spree has emerged for the first time.

The staggering amounts paid for players is believed to have angered Cardiff owner, Malaysian tycoon Tan Sri Vincent Tan (pic), which led to the deterioration of his relationship with Mackay.
Less than 24 hours after Cardiff lost 0-3 at home to Southampton in the English Premier League, Mackay was given his marching orders by Tan.

The Daily Mail reported that signings which angered Tan included the £7.6 million paid for striker Andreas Cornelius, who has yet to score for Cardiff City.

Tan released a statement yesterday accusing Mackay of generating favourable media publicity and exposing far too much dirty linen to public gaze.

However, the Daily Mail reported that Tan was still furious over the £50 million which was spent on player fees, signing-on fees, image rights deals and fees to agents.

In the summer, Cardiff signed Gary Medel (£11.4 million), Steven Caulker (£8 million), Peter Odemwingie (£2.5 million) and Kevin Theophile-Catherine (£2.2 million).

"These deals played a crucial role in October's dismissal of head of recruitment Iain Moody," the Daily Mail said.

Tan claimed he had authorised £35 million to be spent while Moody insisted that in meetings held in mid-April the sum agreed was £50 million.

Tan was reportedly angry with Cornelius's signing because the 20-year-old striker left FC Copenhagen, where he earned £6,000 a week, to sign a contract with Cardiff worth £45,000 a week.

"Cardiff paid a club-record £7.6 million, possibly rising to £10.93 million, based on appearances," the Daily Mail said.

However, Cornelius has appeared only seven times as a substitute, out of Cardiff's 18 premiership and two league cup matches this season. In total, he has been on the pitch for 87 minutes and has yet to score for the club.

It is understood that Cardiff have already undertaken a thorough financial audit, including an email trail, into Cardiff's transfer business in the summer.

These details have been included in board minutes following Moody's departure.
The ill-feeling between the Cardiff City owner and his former manager came to a boil with the sudden removal of Moody in October.

Tan was said to be further infuriated at Mackay's hopes of adding to his squad in January, which resulted in an email sent by Tan to Mackay last week with a "resign or be sacked" ultimatum.

The club's supporters had put their weight clearly behind Mackay with a demand for Tan to leave and put the club up for sale. They have mainly been angered over changes made to the club's crest and the colour of the home jersey, from the traditional blue to red.

Meanwhile, Wales Online reported that Molde manager and former Manchester United striker Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is Tan's favourite to succeed Mackay.

"Club chairman Mehmet Dalman has been given the green light by Tan to find Mackay's successor and Solskjaer is top of the list," Wales Online reported.

It is understood that Solskjaer will be given a transfer kitty of £15 million to spend in the January transfer window if he agrees to take over at Cardiff.

Other applicants in the frame include former England manager Sven-Goran Eriksson, former Argentina and Chile boss Marcelo Bielsa and Turkish coach Yilmaz Vural. - December 28, 2013.

Kidnapped traveler saved in Philippines

TAIPEI, Taiwan -- A Taiwanese tourist has reportedly been rescued from kidnappers who abducted her and killed her husband on a small Malaysian island last month, Taiwanese police said yesterday.

Chang An-wei (張安薇) was sent to a Filipino hospital to undergo a medical checkup after being rescued, said Lin Teh-hua (林德華), commissioner of Taiwan's Criminal Investigation Bureau (CIB).

Taiwan's Central News Agency (CNA) cited “reliable” sources from the Filipino military who confirmed that Chang, 58, was freed from her armed kidnappers in Maimbung, a small town on the southern Filipino island of Sulu, after 35 days in captivity.

Chang received a medical checkup at a Filipino medical facility, CNA said, adding that the Southeast Asian country's police also confirmed the news.

CNA did not release further details about the rescue mission or her health before press time.
Chang was vacationing with her husband, Hsu Li-min (許立民), 57, on Pom Pom Island, located off Sabah in the Malaysian region of Borneo, in the early hours of Nov. 15 when an unknown number of gunmen raided their beach resort hotel room. They shot the husband dead and kidnapped her. It is believed that she was then transported to the Philippines.

Legislator Alex Tsai (蔡正元) of the ruling Kuomintang, who had been helping the family after the kidnapping, told reporters that he received confirmation about the rescue at about 5 p.m. yesterday.

Tsai, who posted a message on his Facebook page breaking the news, said it is hoped that Chang can return to Taiwan before Christmas.

Officials with Taiwan's representative office in Malaysia also disclosed that the Malaysian government confirmed the news.

The officials were cited as saying that Taiwan's foreign ministry will discuss with the Filipino and Malaysian governments regarding further arrangements for her.

The officials also extended their gratitude to Malaysia and the Philippines for their help in ending the hostage's ordeal.

The Filipino police also indicated that the hostage's brother Chang Ta-kong recently went to Manila for the second time to discuss the rescue mission.

The brother had previously traveled to Manila to try and negotiate a ransom with the captors.
But whether or not a negotiation took place has not yet been confirmed. It is also still unknown if the kidnappers received any ransom money.

There were also unconfirmed reports claiming that the hostage was released by the captors, rather than rescued by military troops.

Reports from Singapore said Chang is currently staying at Merin Hospital in Sulu, Philippines, and is expected to be moved to Zamboanga city within three days.

Philippine military frees tourist from gunmen

PETALING JAYA -- A Taiwanese tourist who was kidnapped from Pom Pom island off Sabah on Nov. 15 has been rescued by Philippines security forces, said IGP Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar.

In his Tweet, Khalid congratulated the Philippines for successfully rescuing Chang An-wei.

“The victim was rescued in Sulu and transported to Merin Hospital there.

“She will be flown to Zamboanga City tomorrow,” Khalid said, adding that the Philippines authorities will divulge more details and further development in the matter.

In the incident on Nov. 15, gunmen shot dead Chang's husband and took her away in a raid on the resort of Pulau Pom Pom off Semporna in the east coast of Sabah.

They had arrived in a pump boat about 1 a.m.

Initial reports indicate that gunmen landed on the water villas of Pom Pom Island Resort and Spa and ransacked three of six villas including the one occupied by the victim Lim Min-hsu, 57, and Chang, 58.

At the time of the raid, there were 48 tourists and staff on the island, but it could not be ascertained if all of them have been accounted for.

There were no details of who the gunmen were and if they were linked to any Filipino groups from the neighboring southern Philippines.

The resort is about 1 kilometer away from the General Operation Force (GOF) and tight security has been maintained on the waters stretching from Semporna to Lahad Datu in the Celebes and Sulu seas since the Sulu armed group attack on Lahad Datu in February.

According to initial accounts of the shooting in Pulau Pom Pom, a 45-minute boat ride from Semporna, a supervisor at the resort heard gunshots at about 1am on Friday and immediately informed the GOF post.

Immediately, about a dozen GOF personnel rushed to the resort where they found the body of Lim with two gunshot wounds along the corridor.

His wife however was missing and she was believed to have been kidnapped by the gunmen who were last heard heading toward Pulau Mataking near the Philippines waters.

In late August, nine fishermen from Semporna reported being abducted by Filipino gunmen who wanted directions to the Pulau Mabul diving haven.

They were later abandoned at sea when the gunmen spotted a GOF post near the resort and fled.

阿布薩耶夫綁人贖金平均要價525萬台幣

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sat, 21 Dec 2013 10:06:00 +0800

【綜合報導】菲國軍警在上個月26日，在蘇祿省和阿布薩耶夫組織駁火，當場擊斃4名匪徒，這個月1日也逮捕了2名恐怖分子，加上菲國反恐組織，這個月5 日，從該組織脫逃的約旦記者口中獲知，阿布薩耶夫領導Sawadjaan已生重病，軍警正準備兵力一舉擊滅，阿布薩耶夫見大勢已去，不再堅持贖金金額，意圖以張安薇來換取菲國軍警圍剿壓力。

刑事局指出，阿布薩耶夫長期與菲律賓政府對抗，活動經費甚鉅，為籌措組織運作費用，常以擄人勒贖方式獲取錢財，每次綁架人質，短則3個月，長者達數年之久，每次都要求鉅額贖金，平均金額在披索700萬元（約合台幣525萬元）左右，最近一次是今年3 月，一位遭綁的澳洲人，傳付了10萬美元才獲釋。

遭綁35天張安薇付贖獲救

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sat, 21 Dec 2013 09:18:00 +0800

有可能耶誕節前返台

〔記者陳彥廷、陳慧萍、邱俊福、姜翔／綜合報導〕上月十五日在馬來西亞邦邦島度假時，遭菲律賓盜匪綁架的台灣女遊客張安薇，被綁卅五天後，昨天終於獲釋。

外交部駐馬來西亞代表處昨證實，張安薇已被菲國軍警從蘇祿省馬因崩鎮（Maimbung）救出，送到軍方醫院治療；協助家屬搶救的立委蔡正元昨晚指出，只要身體許可，張安薇「聖誕節（廿五日）前一定會回來」，刑事局相關人士透露「最快今天就會回來」。

上月15日在馬來西亞沙巴州「邦邦島」度假屋遭綁架的台灣遊客張安薇，昨天傳出安全獲救，協助家屬搶救的國民黨立委蔡正元表示，張安薇已送醫院治療。（取自蔡正元臉書）

張曾對大哥喊：救我
蔡正元表示，張安薇的哥哥張大公轉述，他與匪徒通電話時，聽到張安薇說「move、move」（移動），顯示綁匪帶著張安薇到處移動；張安薇也曾對張大公喊「help me、release me」（救我），綁匪要求張安薇通話一定要講英文，但張偶爾夾雜一、兩句中文，暗示自己在哪裡、身旁有多少人。

是否交付贖金給綁匪？蔡正元稱，中間有很多人幫忙，不便多說，但被問到歹徒拿到的贖金是否與政府有關，蔡說明「那是張大公自己去籌的！」顯示一如外界預期：家屬付了贖金。
蔡正元昨晚說，一星期前綁匪透過line，傳張安薇的錄音檔給他，當時是談判關鍵時刻，不便公布；蔡受訪時，接到張大公的越洋感謝電話，蔡稱許張大公是了不起的哥哥，為了營救妹妹，親赴馬來西亞，又去菲律賓，我國刑事局與菲律賓反綁架部門，甚至為張大公開課，幫他變成談判專家，親自面對綁匪的爾虞我詐。

張的大哥籌錢、談判
蔡正元說，綁匪是菲律賓的游擊隊跟民兵，動機是為取贖金買軍火。蔡推測，綁匪可能因張安薇住度假小屋，認為比較有錢，且位置容易動手，而綁架他們，許立民可能為了保護張安薇而抵抗才遭槍殺。

上月十五日，五十八歲張安薇與五十七歲男友許立民，赴馬來西亞沙巴州（Sabah）仙本那（Semporna）外海的「邦邦島」（Pom Pom Island）度假時，十多名搶匪侵入度假小屋搶劫，許立民遭槍殺，張安薇被綁架。

蔡正元昨上午得知張安薇獲釋後，在臉書貼上張安薇近照，但有人提醒他，張雖獲釋但似尚未完全脫離對方勢力範圍，蔡於是撤照，傍晚馬國警方宣布救出人質，蔡重新貼照。

贖金砍到670萬菲綁匪拿錢放人

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sat, 21 Dec 2013 09:11:00 +0800

一度傳喊到近億

〔記者邱俊福／台北報導〕台商張安薇被擄35天，據傳，贖金從50萬美元起跳，後因外力介入，一度叫價至1000萬馬幣（約台幣9100萬元），最後降至 1000萬披索（約台幣670萬元）談成。4年前，高姓女台商在菲國被擄，付贖金300萬披索（約台幣200萬元）後獲釋。
綁架犯案志在贖金

一名資深刑事人員說，除了綁張女，菲律賓綁匪握有6名外籍人質，短則3個月，最久的已被綁了2年還沒獲釋，其中甚至有當地的財經官員；因綁架志在贖金，該組織會確保人質安全。

一般而言，若有可靠的掮客居中對話，家屬付贖金後，綁匪會將人質放置特定處，通知菲國軍警接回；若是菲國人，贖金可能只要幾萬元，外國人大多要1、200萬元（以上均為台幣），刑事人員發現，付贖金的過程非常「神秘」，外界不易窺知。

4年前也有女台商被擄

98 年10月8日，旅居菲國的高姓女台商，在馬尼拉自家門口遭4名持槍的武裝綁匪擄走，押往山區拘禁，綁匪當天與家屬聯繫，要求2000萬披索（約台幣 1350萬元），談判後議定300萬披索（約台幣200萬元），家屬依循指示，在高速公路丟錢交贖，刑事局駐菲聯絡官與菲國反綁架總隊合作，救出人質並擊斃6名綁匪。

張家透過多種管道營救

張安薇被擄後，家屬深知菲國擄人現狀，因張女的母親年邁，不想拖太久，除刑事局等相關單位提供多個管道外，家屬也透過菲國官員等不同管道跟綁匪聯繫上，務求儘快救人。

本月17日，刑事局國際科派出談判專家，陪張安薇的大哥張大公赴菲，共商挽救人質，昨天下午5時許，人質終於獲救。

Sulu Sultan dies

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Tue, 22 Oct 2013 21:17:00 +0800

MANILA, Philippines (Xinhua) - Sulu Sultan Jamalul Kiram III died of illness today at the age of 75, local media reported.

Kiram's daughter Jacel Kiram told local media that her father died of organ failure at the Philippine Heart Center early this morning.

Kiram's remains were brought to his residence at Maharlika Village in Taguig City, Metro Manila. His family wishes to bury the sultan in Maimbung, Sulu within 24 hours, media quoted Jacel as saying.

Kiram's name was in newspaper headlines last February when some of his men sailed from Tawi-Tawi to Lahad Datu in Sabah to lay claim over the Malaysian-controlled territory.

Sulu sultan’s army stakes Sabah claim

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sat, 16 Feb 2013 11:14:00 +0800

MANILA, Philippines - The more than 100 fully armed Filipinos holed up since Wednesday in a remote coastal town in Sabah were on a mission to press the claim of the Sultanate of Sulu on Sabah, an official of the Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF) said yesterday.

“They went there because they wanted to go back to their homeland Sabah, which is part of the Sultanate of Sulu,” said Habib Mujahab Hashim, MNLF central committee member and chairman of the Islamic Command Council.

“However, they were rounded up by the Malaysian security forces because close to 100 of them were armed,” Hashim said, citing reports he received from the field.

He said there were more than 200 Filipino Muslims involved in the standoff. He stressed the armed men were not detained but were merely invited for questioning.

He said the group was sent back to Tawi-Tawi “after hours of negotiation.” It was not clear as of press time if the group had indeed left the secluded coastal village of Lahad Datu some 500 kilometers from Kota Kinabalu.

A ranking military official said MNLF chairman Nur Misuari orchestrated the standoff to attract the attention of the Philippine government and the international community.

“It has something to do with Misuari’s continuing claim of Sabah being part of the Philippines. Misuari just wants to show off. The MNLF may have forged a peace agreement with the government but Misuari has not given up on his claim of Sabah,” the military official who declined to be named said.

He said the so-called Royal Sultanate Army began to recruit members in the early 2000s.

“The following years they never gave the Philippine government any problem until this standoff in Sabah. The Royal Sulu Sultanate Army has been behaving well since then, until they went to Lahad Datu and declared they have the right to stay in Sabah,” the source said.

The source also linked the Sabah standoff to MNLF’s attacks on Abu Sayyaf strongholds in Patikul, Sulu.
“It was even what we call in the military an acoustic war as no bodies of the dead turned up but only sounds of weapons being fired,” The STAR source said.

He said Misuari attempted to seek refuge in Sabah after his men launched attacks in Zamboanga City.
“But always the Malaysian government turned him over to the Philippine government,” the source said. “That is why Misuari would always be bitter against Malaysia.”

Foreign affairs officials said they were informed by Malaysian Foreign Minister Anifah Aman yesterday morning of the ongoing negotiations with the armed men, who identified themselves as members of the “royal army” of the Sultanate of Sulu.

In a press briefing, deputy presidential spokesperson Abigail Valte said they were still verifying information regarding the standoff. She said that contrary to allegations by Malaysian authorities, the Filipinos were not armed based on information from the Department of National Defense.

“We are trying to ascertain the facts that are attendant to the story. The Philippine embassy in Malaysia had already dispatched our police attaché to that particular area to see what’s happening and we continue to monitor the situation,” Valte said.

She also said the Philippine government is ready to extend whatever legal or humanitarian assistance those involved in the standoff might require.

“As a general rule, it is the duty of the government to help extend assistance to any Filipino abroad, wherever they may be. At this point, however, we would like to ascertain the facts first,” she said.

The Philippines has a standing claim on Sabah, which is part of the Sultanate of Sulu leased to the British North Borneo Co. in 1878.

In 1963, Britain transferred control of Sabah to Malaysia. The Sultanate of Sulu protested the handover, saying it was a violation of the Sabah Lease agreement of 1878.

‘Decolonization’

The arrival of the armed group was a prelude to the filing of a petition before the United Nations for the “decolonization” of Sabah by the Sultanate of Sulu, a lawyer with links to the sultanate said.
He said the sultanate should first show proof that it is occupying the territory in question before filing a UN petition to reclaim it.

“The Sultanate of Sulu wants to file their petition next month when the 50-year lease of the British government on the island expires,” he said.

“I believe the presence of the Sultanate royal army is to bolster their claim that they have already re-occupied their ancestral land,” he said.

He said Malaysian authorities may have them arrested but such action may only confirm their physical presence in the territory.

The Bureau of Immigration (BI), for its part, said it was trying to determine if the Filipinos involved in the standoff passed through the bureau’s three border crossing stations in Bongao, Tawi-Tawi.

“I will still have to check with our Immigration Regulation Division if there were any reports forwarded to them regarding this information,” said BI spokesperson Ma. Antonette Mangrobang.

Mangrobang raised the possibility that the Filipinos had reached Sabah on speedboats. Sabah is less than an hour from Mindanao by speedboat.

If they had used a speedboat, Mangrobang said they might have departed from any part of the country’s long coastline and not necessarily from an international seaport.

If such was the case, “we would not be able to monitor because our borders in the southern backdoor are so porous. The only international port in the area is in Zamboanga,” she said.

Don’t create trouble

Cagayan de Oro City Rep. Rufus Rodriguez, for his part, urged the Filipinos involved in the standoff not to start trouble in the territory.

“They should not create trouble. They should not give Malaysia the impression that they are rocking the boat in Sabah. The Malaysians have been our friends. In fact, they have been helping us resolve the problem of Muslim separatism in the south,” he said.

Rodriguez, president of the Christian Democratic Party, said Malaysia hosted the series of talks between the government and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front that led to the recent signing in Malacañang of a historic framework agreement for peace in Mindanao.

He said the armed men who claim to be part of the royal army of the Sultanate of Sulu should resolve their problem peacefully with the authorities in Sabah.

Rodriguez, one of the authors of the Philippine Baselines Law enacted in 2009, said Congress did not include Sabah in the definition of the country’s territory in such law “due to the fact that Malaysia is occupying it.”

“We have to accept the reality that Malaysia rules Sabah, though we have a dormant claim to the island. We would have elicited protest from Malaysia against our baselines law had we included Sabah in our territory. Besides, our law would not have complied with UNCLOS (United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea),” he said.

He said only the disputed Spratlys group of islets off Palawan and Panatag (Scarborough) Shoal near Zambales were treated as “regime of islands” that belongs to the Philippines.

“The United Nations and the international community have accepted our baselines law,” he added.

‘Arrest them’

For the chairman of the House committee on national defense and security, Philippine authorities should apprehend the still unidentified Filipino armed men as soon as they return to the country.

Muntinlupa City Rep. Rodolfo Biazon said that while the identities of the armed men or their affiliations were not yet clear, he said he was inclined to believe that they were militants fleeing government security forces in Mindanao.

“The government should be really, really interested in the identity, status and nature of these armed men, and if our authorities conclude that their existence constitute a threat, and their activities and weapons illegal, then our security forces should take the appropriate action against them,” Biazon told The STAR. – With Paolo Romero, Jess Diaz, Evelyn Macairan, Edith Regalado, Perseus Echeminada, Cecille Suerte Felipe

Danica Patrick biography

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sat, 20 Oct 2012 08:42:00 +0800

Synopsis

Wisconsin. She dropped out of high school to pursue racing. In 2002 she signed with Rahal- Letterman Racing. Patrick was the fourth woman to race in the Indianapolis 500. Her 4th place finish was the highest ever for a female driver and she was the first woman ever to lead in the race.

Profile

Race car driver. Born Danica Sue Patrick on March 25, 1982 in Beloit, Wisconsin. Patrick began racing go-karts with her sister at age 10 and dropped out of high school to advance her racing career in England. It was there that she finished second at the Formula Ford Festival, the highest-ever finish by either a woman or an American in the event. In 2002, Patrick signed with Rahal- Letterman Racing, which is co-owned by former driver Bobby Rahal and talk show host David Letterman. During the next two years, Patrick achieved moderate success and was a consistent finisher on the podium, but never won a race.

In 2005, Patrick became the fourth woman to race in the Indianapolis 500. Her fourth place finish was the highest ever for a female driver, besting the previous record of ninth set by Janet Guthrie in 1978. She led 19 laps of the race, becoming the first woman ever to lead the Indy 500. Later that year at Kansas Speedway, she won her first pole position to become the second woman to accomplish this feat in the IRL (Indy Racing League) IndyCar Series. Patrick was named Rookie of The Year at the 2005 IRL Championship.

Patrick's 2006 year began tragically when teammate Paul Dana was killed in a crash the morning of the Toyota Indy 300. Patrick had solid top ten finishes throughout her IRL campaign that year, coming in 9th place in the standings. Among many honors, she was named Female Athlete of the Year by the United States Sports Academy.

Her status as a female race car driver, combined with her youth and good looks, has netted Patrick numerous media opportunities. She's served as a host on Spike TV, been featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated, and has appeared in commercials and music videos. In 2006, she published her autobiography, Danica: Crossing the Line.

Patrick married physical therapist Paul Edward Hospenthal in 2005.

Patrick, Newman both thrilled with crew chief shuffle

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sat, 20 Oct 2012 08:33:00 +0800

7:57PM EDT October 19. 2012 - KANSAS CITY, Kan. — Danica Patrick will have a new crew chief and Ryan Newman will work with an old friend in a shakeup announced Friday by Stewart-Haas Racing.

Tony Gibson, who has been Ryan Newman's crew chief the past four seasons, will become Patrick's crew chief beginning Monday. His team will also will move to work with Patrick. Her crew chief in her limited Cup races has been Greg Zipadelli, competition director at Stewart-Haas.

Newman will be paired with Matt Borland, vice president of competition at Stewart-Haas Racing. They won 12 races and 37 poles in that same capacity at Penske Racing from 2002-06 before Newman said officials at Penske separated them.

STILL LEARNING: Patrick's steep learning curve continues

Steve Addington will remain Tony Stewart's crew chief.

Patrick, who is competing in both the Nationwide and Cup races this weekend at Kansas Speedway, will run in Cup races at Texas and Phoenix with Gibson and his crew as she prepares to run in Cup full time next year.

"I've always felt really comfortable around Tony," said Patrick, who will start 40th in Sunday's Cup race at Kansas. "I feel like he's always listened to me. I have a lot of respect for him. Most of all, I trust in what they decide for me because I'm not experienced enough to make those calls. That's why I went with a team like them because I know they're' going to give me what I need."

EARLY ENTRY: Danica's hurried move to Cup

With Newman not in the Chase and Patrick running a partial Cup schedule, it makes sense to make these moves.

"Any practice we can get this year is a step ahead for next year and (Gibson) can get to thinking over the winter about my driving style and we can sort of fine tune the language between each other," Patrick said.

The 47-year-old Gibson has worked in NASCAR since the 1980s. He was a crew member on Alan Kulwicki's championship team in 1992 and a car chief on Jeff Gordon's championship teams in 1998 and 2001. He's worked with Mark Martin, Aric Almirola and Newman as a crew chief.

Gibson said he's focused on the future with Patrick.

"You're not looking about next year, you're looking about the year after that," Gibson said. "She knows it's going to take her a little bit to get going and we know that. It's something we're willing to grow together on."

Patrick's best finish in seven previous Cup races this season is 25th last month at Chicagoland Speedway. She has two top-10 finishes in 29 Nationwide starts this season.

"Seat time is what she needs," Gibson said. "Everybody has to start somewhere. But you have to believe in them. We're up for the challenge and we're up for whatever we have to do to make her comfortable."

A key will be how well Gibson and Patrick develop a crew chief-driver relationship. Some of that will come based on what they have in common not only at the track but away from it.

"If I can get her to go hunting with me and listen to country music, we've got it made," Gibson said with a smile.

There be no need for such introductions with Borland and Newman. Borland was Newman's best man at his wedding and they formed one of the more potent combinations during their five seasons together. Borland will be with Newman next week at Martinsville Speedway.

Newman admits he didn't think of such a reunion because he didn't think Borland was interested in being a crew chief again until officials at Stewart-Haas Racing suggested it.

"Matt came out to my farm, bailed hay, hung out and just talked about the possibilities and here we are," Newman said. "We know we can get the job done."
