  • ACCOUNTABILITY Stock Options and the New Rules of Corporate
    00_200295_FM_Delves 8/20/03 11:07 AM Page i “Don Delves is one of the industry's most knowledgeable compen- sation consultants. His book makes an important contribution to the stock option dialogue.”—Larry Hirsch, Chairman & CEO of Centex Corporation “This is an excellent book for anyone interested in the important discussion of stock option expensing and, more significantly, the optimal use of stock options in compensation plans. It is written from the point of view of an experienced and knowledgeable com- pensation consultant who has advised board compensation com- mittees and talked with many people outside the field considering the economic and incentive effects of the overuse of stock options in the 90s.”—John M. Biggs, former Chairman & CEO of TIAA- CREF “This book is very thoughtful and insightful. There are no right answers– only degrees of balance. The author has achieved that well.”—John Rau, President and CEO of Miami Corporation; for- mer CEO of Chicago Title & Trust Company “If you are on the Compensation or Finance Committee of a Board, this is a must read. With the portfolio of executive compensation Don Delves assisted us with, BorgWarner has risen to the top with- out megagrants of stock options.”—John F. Fiedler, former Chair- man and CEO of BorgWarner “Don Delves has given us a clear, lively exposition of multiple issues and variables to be considered in formulating incentives to improve corporate and executive performance. Along with his unequivocal advocacy of expensing stock options, he calls for a more balanced approach to compensation, one that blends a variety of elements to engender more attention on the long-term health of the enterprise.

  • Twelve Angry Men
    The American Century Theater presents Twelve Angry Men by Reginald Rose Audience Guide Written and compiled by Jack Marshall Drawing by Bruce Alan Rauscher Theater you can afford to see— plays you can’t afford to miss! About The American Century Theater The American Century Theater was founded in 1994. We are a professional company dedicated to presenting great, important, but overlooked American plays of the twentieth century . what Henry Luce called “the American Century.” The company’s mission is one of rediscovery, enlightenment, and perspective, not nostalgia or preservation. Americans must not lose the extraordinary vision and wisdom of past playwrights, nor can we afford to surrender our moorings to our shared cultural heritage. Our mission is also driven by a conviction that communities need theater, and theater needs audiences. To those ends, this company is committed to producing plays that challenge and move all Americans, of all ages, origins and points of view. In particular, we strive to create theatrical experiences that entire families can watch, enjoy, and discuss long afterward. These audience guides are part of our effort to enhance the appreciation of these works, so rich in history, content, and grist for debate. The American Century Theater is a 501(c)(3) professional nonprofit theater company dedicated to producing significant 20th Century American plays and musicals at risk of being forgotten. This program is supported in part by Arlington County through the Arlington Commission for the Arts and Arlington Cultural Affairs, a division of Arlington Economic Development; the Virginia Commission for the Arts; the National Endowment for the Arts; and many generous donors.
