Mark Purdy Future Speakers "Sports" Apr 7 2010 MARK PURDY has been a sports columnist at the San Jose Mercury News since 1984. He previously worked at the Dayton Mark Purdy (Ohio) Journal Herald, Chicago Tribune, Cincinnati Enquirer and Los Angeles Times. He has been a contributing columnist to the "Sports" Sporting News and has made television appearances on ABC's Nightline, Court TV, ESPN "Outside the Lines" and many Bay Area radio and television Apr 14 2010 programs. Col. Michael J. Meese On five occasions, he has been named to the Associated Press Sports Editors' annual list of America's Top 10 Sports Columnists. The South Bay's "Combating Terrorism in Metro Weekly has named him the "Best Local Sportswriter" and he was twice selected as Ohio Sportswriter of the Year by his colleagues while Afghanistan" working in Cincinnati. Apr 21 2010 A native of Celina, Ohio, Purdy is a 1974 graduate of Northwestern University's Medill School of Journalism. He has covered 10 Olympic Games, Chris Wilder more than 25 Super Bowls and World Series and many other high-profile sports events. In the Bay Area, he is known as the columnist who named "Social Networking" "McCovey Cove," the body of water behind right field at Pacific Bell Park, as a tribute to former Giants' slugger Willie McCovey. In 1989, he was a member of the Mercury News staff that received the Pulitzer Prize for its coverage of the "World Series earthquake" that struck the area just before Apr 28 2010 Game 3 at Candlestick Park. Dolores Carr & Jeff Rosen "District Attorney Candidate Rotary Name Change Debate" May 5 2010 Chuck Reed "State of the City" Local Endowment name changed to May 12 2010 Rotary Club of San Jose Foundation Leigh Rubin Due to some recent changes in the law and advice from professionals in our Rotary Club, the Trustees of our local Rotary Endowment "Cartoonist" have changed the name to the "Rotary Club of San Jose Foundation". We know this will create some confusion with The Rotary May 19 2010 Foundation run by Rotary International so we will refer to the two different foundations as "the Club Foundation" and "the International Foundation". Russ Jones "LEAP" We apologize for the change, but there weren't many good options. For the next few months, we will continue to deposit any checks written to the San Jose Rotary Endowment or anything similar. Heck, we will probably continue depositing those checks just as long as San Jose Rotarians want to May 26 2010 write them! Thanks for your understanding and cooperation.

  • Sfaa News November 2011 Final
    Volume 22, Number 4 November 2011 SfAA President’s Column By Merrill Eisenberg [[email protected]] University of Arizona he SfAA Board met in Denver on October 15-16, and I am happy to report that all is well with your Society! We are coming up on our T75 th birthday in 2016, but we are nowhere near ready for retirement! In fact, we are very busy planning for “Beyond 75”. We’ve come a long way since our founding in 1941, when, as John Bennett recalled in his SfAA Oral History interview, “…we regarded this as a kind of cult formation. That is, I think our attitude was, ‘Well, so what’s all the fuss about?’ It should be applied, you know; it should have some mix… do Merrill Eisenberg something that has relevance for the world, for… for men, for humans…’” Our first annual meeting was held in 1941 in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The entire group of attendees fit into one room and less than 10 papers were presented. Among the presenters were Margaret Mead, William F. Whyte, and Eliot Chapple. Today, the SfAA is almost 3000 members strong. Approximately 10% of our members reside outside of the US, in 47 different countries. Thirty percent of our members are students. Approximately 2000 people attend our meetings in a "good" year and hundreds of papers, presentations, workshops, roundtables and panels are held. We've come a long way from our cultish ancestors! Looking “Beyond 75” we recognize our changing world and what that means for applied social science and for our Society.
