  • The Following Players Comprise the College Football Great Teams 2 Card Set
    COLLEGE FOOTBALL GREAT TEAMS OF THE PAST 2 SET ROSTER The following players comprise the College Football Great Teams 2 Card Set. The regular starters at each position are listed first and should be used most frequently. Realistic use of the players below will generate statistical results remarkably similar to those from real life. IMPORTANT: When a Red "K" appears in the R-column as the result on any kind of running play from scrimmage or on any return, roll the dice again, refer to the K-column, and use the number there for the result. When a player has a "K" in his R-column, he can never be used for kicking or punting. If the symbol "F-K" or "F-P" appears on a players card, it means that you use the K or P column when he recovers a fumble. Players in bold are starters. If there is a difference between the player's card and the roster sheet, always use the card information. The number in ()s after the player name is the number of cards that the player has in this set. See below for a more detailed explanation of new symbols on the cards. 1971 NEBRASKA 1971 NEBRASKA 1972 USC 1972 USC OFFENSE DEFENSE OFFENSE DEFENSE EB: Woody Cox End: John Adkins EB: Lynn Swann TA End: James Sims Johnny Rodgers (2) TA TB, OA Willie Harper Edesel Garrison Dale Mitchell Frosty Anderson Steve Manstedt John McKay Ed Powell Glen Garson TC John Hyland Dave Boulware (2) PA, KB, KOB Tackle: John Grant Tackle: Carl Johnson Tackle: Bill Janssen Chris Chaney Jeff Winans Daryl White Larry Jacobson Tackle: Steve Riley John Skiles Marvin Crenshaw John Dutton Pete Adams Glenn Byrd Al Austin LB: Jim Branch Cliff Culbreath LB: Richard Wood Guard: Keith Wortman Rich Glover Guard: Mike Ryan Monte Doris Dick Rupert Bob Terrio Allan Graf Charles Anthony Mike Beran Bruce Hauge Allan Gallaher Glen Henderson Bruce Weber Monte Johnson Booker Brown George Follett Center: Doug Dumler Pat Morell Don Morrison Ray Rodriguez John Kinsel John Peterson Mike McGirr Jim Stone ET: Jerry List CB: Jim Anderson TC Center: Dave Brown Tom Bohlinger Brent Longwell PC Joe Blahak Marty Patton CB: Charles Hinton TB.

  • USDA Former Secretaries USMCA Letter
    September 18, 2019 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Kevin McCarthy Speaker Minority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 Washington, D.C. 20515 The Honorable Mitch McConnell The Honorable Chuck Schumer Majority Leader Minority Leader U.S. Senate U.S. Senate Washington, D.C. 20510 Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Speaker Pelosi, Minority Leader McCarthy, Majority Leader McConnell and Minority Leader Schumer, As former Secretaries of Agriculture, we recognize how important agricultural trade is to the U.S. economy and rural America. We know from experience that improved market access creates significant benefits to U.S. farmers and ranchers. We believe that the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) will benefit American agriculture and related industries. With Canada and Mexico being the first and second largest export markets for U.S. agricultural products, we believe USMCA makes positive improvements to one of our most critical trade deals. Currently, NAFTA supports more than 900,000 jobs in the U.S. food and agriculture sector and has amplified agricultural exports to our North American neighbors to $40 billion this past year. Before NAFTA went into effect in 1994, we were exporting only $9 billion worth of agricultural products to Canada and Mexico. The International Trade Commission’s recent economic analysis concluded that USMCA would benefit our agriculture sector and would deliver an additional $2.2 billion in U.S. economic activity. Trade is extremely vital to the livelihood of American farmers and the U.S. food industry. U.S. farm production exceeds domestic demand by 25 percent.

Faith on the Farm: An Analysis of Angola Prison's Moral Rehabilitation Program Under the Establishment Clause "Moral people are not criminals. That's why moral rehabilitationis the only true rehabilitation." INTRODUCTION The numbers are alarming: The United States leads the world with the highest incarceration rate, with 756 out of every 100,000 people in jail.2 Louisiana leads the country in the same category with 858 of every 100,000 citizens behind bars.3 Even when the incarcerated are finally released, the chances are likely that they will return to prison at some point within the next three years. With a systemic problem of these proportions, what should the states do to combat this epidemic? One proposed answer is to turn to religion.s Some evidence exists that faith-based programming can rehabilitate offenders and Copyright 2011, by RoY L.

  • Accentuating the Positive in Nebraska's GOP Race for Governor
    July 1, 1998 Accentuating the Positive in Nebraska's GOP Race for Governor Bob Wickers Mike Johanns was outspent by $2 million, never mentioned his opponents' names on TV - and won a big primary victory We started the campaign knowing three things: 1) We were going to be considerably outspent by both of our opponents; 2) We were going to build a grassroots organization in all 93 counties throughout Nebraska and 3) We were going to stay positive no matter what.
