WELCOME TO THE BOARD TOM

Business First reports:

Huntington Bancshares CEO Thomas Hoaglin¹ has been elected to the board of American Electric Power Company Inc.
AEP said Hoaglin's election brings its board to 14 members. Company President and CEO Michael G. Morris serves as chairman.
Hoaglin, 58, also chairs four area boards, including the ColumbusChamber and OhioHealth, and serves as a director on five others. He became chairman, president and CEO of Huntington in 2001 and passed the presidency to Marty Adams, former CEO of Sky Financial Group Inc., upon Huntington's July 1 merger with the company.
Hoaglin will become president again upon Adams' retirement at the end of the year, halting his original plan to pass the company's leadership to Adams in 2010 and retire in 2011

[¹] he is one of the nicest influential ppl in this city and upon meeting, he doesn't give off that arrogant I have power vibes. Congrats to Mr. Hoaglin

"MADE FROM SCRATCH"

FOR A GREATER GOOD

Honoree Randy Falco

Jeff Zucker took a big chance when he didn't show up to roast AOL Chairman/CEO Randy Falco at the Pierre Tuesday — Falco seared the NBC Universal CEO, who was traveling with GE CEO Jeffrey Immelt. Falco, who was at NBC for 31 years before leaving last year to head AOL, said: "We were No. 1 for so many years, with 'Friends, 'Frasier,' 'ER' and 'Cheers'. ... We thought it would never end. Then Jeff Zucker came along."
But Falco was ultimately barbecued, er, honored by Bob Costas and "Today" show executive producer Jim Bell, all to benefit the Center for Communication, which hooks media pros up with college students.
Neither stayed away from the delicate issue of Falco-ordered layoffs of 2,000 AOL employees this year. "Randy has three wonderful children," Costas said. "He used to have five, but he had to lay two off."
Media bigs like former GE chief Jack Welch, hunky Google ad wizard Tim Armstrong, VH1 original-programming Veep Michael Hirschorn and TV superagent Richard Liebner guffawed under the Murano chandeliers as Bell said, "The remainder of the entire AOL workforce is actually here today. How ya doin', Table 10?!"
But Bell, who carried a tendon-injured Falco around Barcelona during the Olympics as one of his first jobs, then ruminated, "Come to think of it, we unloaded the two biggest pains in the ass in the entire company in 2006" — as a blowup of Falco and Katie Couric appeared on the screen. Tom Brokaw, Brian Williams, and Time Warner chief Dick Parsons sent tributes, noting that Falco, while beloved, is perhaps lacking in charisma.
