Ted (airline)

Ted was one of two airline divisional brands of United Airlines. It targeted vacation locations in the low cost airline market, in contrast to United's high end divisional "sub-fleeted" brand called United p.s.. "Ted" comes from the last three letters in the United brand name. United marketed Ted anthropomorphically and attempted to personify Ted; it used phrases such as Meet Ted or I've Met Ted.

Due to the airline crisis caused by spiking fuel prices, on June 4, 2008, United announced that the Ted brand and services would be discontinued with the Ted aircraft being fitted with United's First Class cabin and eventually being incorporated into United's regular fleet to compensate for the removal of United's entire Boeing 737 fleet. Operations were folded back into the mainline brand on January 6, 2009.

History

Ted's creation was announced November 12, 2003, and service began February 12, 2004. It began service in Denver International Airport, a United hub, to compete with Frontier Airlines. The airline had 56 Airbus A320s with 156 all-economy seats, allowing United to compete with low-cost airlines such as Frontier Airlines. All Ted flights were operated by United crews flying under the UAL operating certificate, as Ted was not actually a certificated airline, but rather a brand name applied to differentiate the all-economy service from United's mainline flights. Therefore, because of operational needs, it was possible for one to see Ted aircraft operate as mainline United flights; in the reverse, more often mainline United aircraft operated as Ted flights because of equipment substitutions.

Bruce Slesinger

Bruce Slesinger, better known by his stage name Ted, was the first drummer for the Dead Kennedys.

Dead Kennedys

He drummed for the band from July 1978 to February 1981. He played the drums on their first album, Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables. He also co-wrote their second single, "Holiday in Cambodia", in conjunction with the rest of the group, and "Pull My Strings", a song written with lead singer and primary songwriter Jello Biafra specifically for the 1980 Bay Area Music awards. He also played on the Dead Kennedys track "Night of the Living Rednecks", in which Dead Kennedys guitarist East Bay Ray's guitar "breaks" and the band begins playing in a bebop style, while Biafra tells about his encounter with some jocks.

He preferred Gretsch drum kits and was best known for his manic energy and his distinctive kick-snare-ride patterns. Slesinger left because he wanted to pursue a career in architecture, and was replaced by D.H. Peligro.

Life outside music

He is now married and living in San Francisco working as an architect. He has a son, Samuel Slesinger, who is living in San Francisco and graduated from Occidental College with a B.A. in Film & Media Studies.

Herold (beer)

Herold is a brand of beer made in Herold Březnice Castle Brewery, a small brewery in Březnice, a small town 60 kilometers south of Prague, Czech Republic.

Beer was first noted to have been commercially brewed here in 1506. Its age puts it firmly towards the top the list of world's oldest-established companies

Following WWII, the brewery, or pivovar in Czech language, was taken over by the Government and became part of the state-owned Institute for Brewing and Malt Production. Pivovar Herold Březnice is now once more operating under private ownership for the first time since 1945.

A more complete history of the brewery can be found on the brewery's own website (in Czech Only).

In 2008 the brewery was once again under Czech control when Ballena a.s. bought out the American owners, the new owners also resurrected Herold Weizen.
