  • Minor League Presidents
    MINOR LEAGUE PRESIDENTS compiled by Tony Baseballs www.minorleaguebaseballs.com This document deals only with professional minor leagues (both independent and those affiliated with Major League Baseball) since the foundation of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues (popularly known as Minor League Baseball, or MiLB) in 1902. Collegiate Summer leagues, semi-pro leagues, and all other non-professional leagues are excluded, but encouraged! The information herein was compiled from several sources including the Encyclopedia of Minor League Baseball (2nd Ed.), Baseball Reference.com, Wikipedia, official league websites (most of which can be found under the umbrella of milb.com), and a great source for defunct leagues, Indy League Graveyard. I have no copyright on anything here, it's all public information, but it's never all been in one place before, in this layout. Copyrights belong to their respective owners, including but not limited to MLB, MiLB, and the independent leagues. The first section will list active leagues. Some have historical predecessors that will be found in the next section. LEAGUE ASSOCIATIONS The modern minor league system traces its roots to the formation of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues (NAPBL) in 1902, an umbrella organization that established league classifications and a salary structure in an agreement with Major League Baseball. The group simplified the name to “Minor League Baseball” in 1999. MINOR LEAGUE BASEBALL Patrick Powers, 1901 – 1909 Michael Sexton, 1910 – 1932

  • On the Edge of Time 2021Web.Pdf
    OnEdgeOfTime_CoverUpdate21.indd 1 4/19/21 4:11 PM Dear Reader, You don’t have to be a social, economic, ecological, or political analyst to recognize we’ve got problems here on earth, major problems. From the ever looming threats of ecological collapse and nuclear war, to global pandemics and natural disasters, to unnumbered social ills and a failing world economy, secular scientists are telling us we’ve never been closer to “doomsday” than we are today. But is anyone listening? I’m afraid many of us have gotten much too comfortable living in this world, insulating ourselves with the hope that things will get better when clearly they aren’t—just a glance at today’s news headlines and a survey of ancient and modern history proves that. Are we just putting our heads in the sand, medicating ourselves with whatever fl eeting distraction or substance we can fi nd to escape reality? Or have we just plain gotten use to it all, hardened by constant exposure? When I was a kid being sick was normal for me until I got sick of being sick and discovered there was a cause and a cure. By obeying nature’s laws, I could strengthen my immune system, resist disease, and bring my body into proper balance. Now good health is the norm. This world is sick, but to most of us it’s normal. We don’t realize what the underlying cause is or where to fi nd the cure. It is my prayer that this book will help you discover both and give you hope.

THE SUNDAY CLOSING LAWS DECISIONS - A CRITIQUE Theodore R. Mann* and Marvin Garfinkel** Introduction Abraham Braunfeld is an Orthodox Jew'who owns and operates a retail children's clothing store. His store is open from Monday morning until mid- afternoon on Friday, at which time the Fourth Commandment requires that he close. He remains closed until Sunday morning, when he opens his store again and operates a full day. A state law forbidding him to work on Sunday is enforced against him. The entire week-end is now foreclosed to him. He must either work on Saturday and thus violate his conscience or go out of business and lose his means of earning a living as well as his capital investment. May he be constitu- tionally confronted with such a choice? The United States Supreme Court has recently answered yes.' During the past century and a half many American courts have sustained the constitutionality of Sunday closing laws.2 The United States Supreme Court so concluded in 1951 in the case of Friednian v.
