    Please disable your ad blocker. Advertising helps fund Times journalism. Unblock ads Paul G. Allen, Microsoft’s Co‑ Founder, Is Dead at 65 By Steve Lohr Oct. 15, 2018 Paul G. Allen, the co‑founder of Microsoft who helped usher in the personal computing revolution and then channeled his enormous fortune into transforming Seattle into a cultural destination, died on Monday in Seattle. He was 65. The cause was complications of non‑Hodgkin’s lymphoma, his family said in a statement. The disease recurred recently after having been in remission for years. He left Microsoft in the early 1980s, after the cancer first appeared, and, using his enormous wealth, went on to make a powerful impact on Seattle life through his philanthropy and his ownership of the N.F.L. team there, ensuring that it would remain in the city. Mr. Allen was a force at Microsoft during its first seven years, along with its co‑founder, Bill Gates, as the personal computer was moving from a hobbyist curiosity to a mainstream technology, used by both businesses and consumers. When the company was founded, in 1975, the machines were known as microcomputers, to distinguish the desktop computers from the hulking machines of the day. Mr. Allen came up with the name Micro‑Soft, an apt one for a company that made software for small computers. The term personal computer would become commonplace later. The company’s first product was a much‑compressed version of the Basic programming language, designed to suit those underpowered machines. Yet the company’s big move came when it promised the computer giant IBM that it would deliver the operating system software for IBM’s entry into the personal computer business.

  • 1 Sports Culture Among Undergraduates: a Study
    SPORTS CULTURE AMONG UNDERGRADUATES: A STUDY OF STUDENT-ATHLETES AND STUDENTS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN1 Andrei S. Markovits Department of Political Science, The University of Michigan And David T. Smith Department of Political Science, The University of Michigan 1 We would like to thank Alexander Kingsley Cotton for his fine help coding the surveys. Eric Ambinder’s and Amy Duvall’s assistance was much more valuable than a casual “thank you” might convey. We appreciate Norman Miller’s generosity in letting us survey students who entered his store to obtain their course packs for the fall term of 2003. Terry Adams, Stephanie Chardoul, Lynnette Ruth Foley, Sara Feeland and Ruth Philippou at the Institute of Social Research proved invaluable in entering the data and readying it for our analysis. We also valued their thoughtful suggestions and immense expertise. Susie Henderson and Megan McCallister were indefatigable and indispensable coordinators between us and the coaches whose full cooperation was an absolute necessity for the implementation of our survey. Lastly, our most profound appreciation goes to William C. Martin, the University of Michigan’s Athletic Director, without whose unflagging support for and enthusiastic approval of our study this simply would never have happened. 1 THE CONTEXT Our project has a well-established intellectual pedigree and forms an essential component of a larger academic concern. Since the late 1980s, Andrei Markovits has worked on what he has called “sports cultures” by which he has meant the large framework wherein people “follow” sports.2 As such, his work has concentrated more on the consumption of sports—their “followers” or fans or supporters—as opposed to their production, that is their “doers”, their participants.

We are very happy to be hosting committees during this strange year and would like to thank you for giving this online thing a shot. I am very excited to be a chair for this specific committee because a few years ago I did a similar committee which was at my first Model UN conference. I have been a part of Model UN for 3 years and have gone to a few high school conferences and two college conferences which includes NAIMUN and WMHSMUN (Georgetown and William & Mary). It was very interesting to hear different things from people across the country instead of the state. I know that we can have a very good discussion on the topic today as NFL CTE. Please send me your position papers at my email address below so that I may consider them for awards.
