From the article we learn that this program is under the aegis of the Ted Noffs Foundation.
Please don't tell us that the director's name is Jack Noffs.

I did work for a while for a director by the name of Richard Burns. Many individuals created circumstances where it could be said "Who's Dick Burns?" He was such an unthinking manager that he once officially announced a new company policy by concluding: "This is a condition of employment, but it is not like you could get fired for it or anything."

And yet another male genital related anecdote:
In catholic grade school one of my classmates was Bill Bates. The nuns would call the male students "master" but when it came to Bill he was addressed as "mister."
The nuns must have had a giggle about this little word problem whenever they sharing the cooking sherry back at the convent.
