We have also become clearer about how to help emerging leaders meet this challenge. This paper describes the need for what we call personal transformation (self-knowledge and self-love) as an important prerequisite for becoming ‘bridging’ leaders – who can listen, empathize and bring others together to solve problems collaboratively. It traces my own journey to understand my fears, find safety in knowing and understanding myself, and then become more effective as a bridging leader in the world. Telling my story is my gift to others seeking to find their role along this same path toward contributing to a better world.

    PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME TEACHER ACTIVITY GUIDE 2019-2020 EDITIOn WASHInGTOn REDSKInS Team History With three Super Bowl championships, the Washington Redskins are one of the NFL’s most dominant teams of the past quarter century. But the organization’s glorious past dates back almost 60 years and includes five world championships overall and some of the most innovative people and ideas the game has ever known. From George Preston Marshall to Jack Kent Cooke, from Vince Lombardi to Joe Gibbs, from Sammy Baugh to John Riggins, plus the NFL’s first fight song, marching band and radio network, the Redskins can be proud of an impressive professional football legacy. George Preston Marshall was awarded the inactive Boston franchise in July 1932. He originally named the team “Braves” because it used Braves Field, home of the National League baseball team. When the team moved to Fenway Park in July 1933, the name was changed to Redskins. A bizarre situation occurred in 1936, when the Redskins won the NFL Eastern division championship but Marshall, unhappy with the fan support in Boston,moved the championship game against Green Bay to the Polo Grounds in New York. Their home field advantage taken away by their owner, the Redskins lost. Not surprisingly, the Redskins moved to Washington, D.C., for the 1937 season. Games were played in Griffith Stadium with the opener on September 16, 1937, being played under flood lights. That year,Marshall created an official marching band and fight song, both firsts in the National Football League. That season also saw the debut of “Slinging Sammy” Baugh, a quarterback from Texas Christian who literally changed the offensive posture of pro football with his forward passing in his 16-season career.

  • Dissertation Bats As Reservoir Hosts
    DISSERTATION BATS AS RESERVOIR HOSTS: EXPLORING NOVEL VIRUSES IN NEW WORLD BATS Submitted by Ashley Malmlov Department of Microbiology, Immunology, and Pathology In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Spring 2018 Doctoral Committee: Advisor: Tony Schountz Richard Bowen Page Dinsmore Kristy Pabilonia Copyright by Ashley Malmlov 2018 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT BATS AS RESERVOIR HOSTS: EXPLORING NOVEL VIRUSES IN NEW WORLD BATS Order Chiroptera is oft incriminated for their capacity to serve as reservoirs for many high profile human pathogens, including Ebola virus, Marburg virus, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus, Nipah virus and Hendra virus. Additionally, bats are postulated to be the original hosts for such virus families and subfamilies as Paramyxoviridae and Coronavirinae. Given the perceived risk bats may impart upon public health, numerous explorations have been done to delineate if in fact bats do host more viruses than other animal species, such as rodents, and to ascertain what is unique about bats to allow them to maintain commensal relationships with zoonotic pathogens and allow for spillover. Of particular interest is data that demonstrate type I interferons (IFN), a first line defense to invading viruses, may be constitutively expressed in bats. The constant expression of type I IFNs would hamper viral infection as soon as viral invasion occurred, thereby limiting viral spread and disease. Another immunophysiological trait that may facilitate the ability to harbor viruses is a lack of somatic hypermutation and affinity maturation, which would decrease antibody affinity and neutralizing antibody titers, possibly facilitating viral persistence.

So I always had it in perspective, and I didn’t need a year off to remind me how lucky I was to play.1—Peyton Manning American football is an inherently violent game. Peyton Manning, one of the most prolific passers in National Football League history,2 understands that one consequence of the game is that a player’s career can end in an instant.3 Every year, millions of Americans tune in to watch the sport that has arguably supplanted baseball as America’s national pastime.4 And year after year, millions of Americans watch as another player is carted off the field after suffering a devastating injury.5 Professional football players put their physical welfare in jeopardy in order to play the sport.6 The dreaded but always looming injury can kill players’ career aspirations in an instant.
