  • The Following Players Comprise the 1975 Season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set
    1975 APBA PRO FOOTBALL SET ROSTER The following players comprise the 1975 season APBA Pro Football Player 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.

SPONS AGENCY Department of Justice, Washingtm, D.C. Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention. PUB DATE Mar 89 GRANT 85-MU-CX-0003 NOTE 41p. PUB TYPE Reports - Descriptive (141) EDRS PRICE MF01/PCO2 Plus PostEge. DESCRIPTORS Adolescents; Antisocial Behavior; *Athletes; Athletic Coaches; *Athletics; *Delinquency Prevention; *Males; Peer Influence; Preadolescents; *Role Models; Team Sports Research and numerous model programs suggest that sport plays an important social role. Particularly among youth, sports and professional athlete role models help deter juvenile delinquency. An overv.!ew is presented of current efforts to involve young people, particularly inner-city black youths, in athletic activities. A majority of sociological studies have shown that young athletes, regardless of their socioeconomic status, are less delinquent than comparable non-athletes and are less likely to be involved in serious offenses. Well-known black male athletes have proven to be effective role models for boys, not only in encouraging them to engage in sports activities, but to resist peer pressure and the drug culture. This booklet discusses ways in which youngsters are being persuded to become involved in sports and other activities. A selectior, of articles from newspapers and magazines that deal with this subject is appended. (JD) Reproductions supplied by EDRS are the best that can be made

  • Activists in the Boardroom: How Advocacy Groups Seek to Shape Corporate Behavior
    Text.qxp 10/4/2006 1:27 PM Page 1 Activists in the Boardroom: How Advocacy Groups Seek to Shape Corporate Behavior Tom Price Introduction by Douglas G. Pinkham President, Public Affairs Council Text.qxp 10/4/2006 1:27 PM Page 2 Introduction To a job seeker, a corporation is a place to earn a living. To a shareholder, a corporation is a vehicle for investments. To a community, a corporation represents economic stability and a strong tax base. But political activists are increasingly regarding corporations as instru- ments for improving the environment, protecting human rights, saving the rain forest and helping the poor. Instead of looking to government to solve problems, advocacy groups are either enlisting the help of companies to meet societal needs or pressuring them to use their market clout to support their causes. Part of the reason for this shift is the sheer size of the world’s largest companies. According to the U.N. Conference on Trade and Development, at least 29 of the world’s top 100 economies are multinational corporations. Any organization as big as an industrialized nation is likely to have the capacity to change the world — or at least a corner of the world. To be sure, even without pressure from activists, many firms have sponsored wide-ranging social responsibility programs. They have donated millions of dollars in grants and millions of hours in volunteer time in an Text.qxp 10/4/2006 1:27 PM Page 3 effort to assist the communities where they do business. Over the past 20 years, community involvement at these companies has evolved from “checkbook philanthropy” into a sustained effort to integrate corporate citizenship into overall business operations.

Mark’s book makes a pro- found contribution toward the development of these churches, the kind of churches Christ most surely desires on earth as it is in heaven.” — Rev. Ali Velasquez, Hispanic Task Force, North American Mission Board “This captivating book describes the fascinating story, including the bibli- cal basis, behind Mark’s passionate quest to develop a church that is truly multicultural and multi-ethnic. It fosters hope that the future can be different.” — Dr. Warren Bird, coauthor, Culture Shift, and research director, Leadership Network “In Building a Healthy Multi-Ethnic Church, Mark paints a picture, with his own story and the story of God, that will inspire and equip people to join with God in fulfi lling the vision of a faith of all colors.” — Doug Pagitt, senior pastor, Solomon’s Porch, Minneapolis, Minnesota, and author, An Emergent Manifesto of Hope “I am so excited to see the concept of cross-cultural local church ministry so thoroughly articulated by Mark DeYmaz. I encourage every pastor, parish- ioner, and even non-Christians, as well, to read this book in order to see where the local church is heading in the twenty-fi rst century, and why.” — Dr.
