TRIBUTE The last few years have brought many changes to the Medical College of Georgia. The entering class now numbers 100 students; the ETMH has been established under the direction of the College ; a new administration building has been erected; the Dugas and Murphey build- ings have been greatly enlarged and thoroughly remodel- ed, and the number of faculty members has grown by leaps and bounds. These have been happy changes, but the same years have brought many of the leaders of this expansion to the age of retirement. This is retirement not from activity on behalf of the college but from of- ficial position only. When we say farewell to Dr. Pund, as President, we do not say farewell to our friend and mentor. Though we will miss his able administrative hand, we can but be happy that he will be freed from many onerous tasks and will have more time to enjoy the pleasurable rewards of an eminent career. Yet another elder statesman, Dr. Richard Torpin, Professor and Chairman of Obstetrics and Gynecology, retires this June. Does this mean that the 'possum and the placenta will de- part? Never, from our hearts and minds. Dr. Torpin's teaching ability, professional skill and inventive ingenuity have provided memorable inspiration for his students and colleagues alike. We wish our esteemed friends many happy and active years. V. L.

  • Fishing Legend Films Show with Choctaw Leaders Promoting an Anti-Substance Abuse Message Is One Thing That Choctaw Chief Gregory E
    BISHINIK PRSRT STD P.O. Drawer 1210 U.S. Postage Paid Durant OK 74702 Durant OK RETURN SERVICE REQUESTED Permit #187 THE OFFICIAL PUBLICATION OF THE CHOCTAW NATION OF OKLAHOMA Serving 138,573 Choctaws Worldwide www.choctawnation.com August 2003 Issue Fishing legend films show with Choctaw leaders Promoting an anti-substance abuse message is one thing that Choctaw Chief Gregory E. Pyle and world-famous professional fisherman Jimmy Houston have in common. Another thing in com- mon is that they teamed up recently to film a fishing excursion for ESPN. While casting for the big bass in a Bryan County water- shed, the Chief and fishing legend Jimmy Houston talked nonstop, with topics ranging from “best lures” to moral and spiritual issues. Chief Pyle and Mr. Houston were joined by Assistant Chief Mike Bailey in the Bass Tracker, launching the boat shortly after day- light. As Chief Pyle reeled in the first catch of the day, the discus- sion turned to ways that people could be encouraged to “get hooked on fishing, not drugs.” This subject has been a hot topic with Jimmy Houston since news articles were printed this year about Jimmy Houston’s announcement that he refused to wear a Busch beer logo on his clothing and put the beer sponsor’s decal on his boat. This refusal means that the fishing legend has opted out of the running for BASS Angler of the Year, which he has won twice before. Houston was quoted in a Baptist Press article that he could not comply with endorsing the beer sponsor because of “ethical, moral and scriptural reasons.” When asked if he had prayed much about his decision, Houston said he hadn’t needed to pray about it at all – the decision had been made long ago not to be involved with spon- sorships from alcohol distributors.

  • The Veto-Free Presidency: George W. Bush (2001-Present) Kathryn Dunn Tenpas
    Number 4 July 2006 The Veto-Free Presidency: George W. Bush (2001-Present) Kathryn Dunn Tenpas EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recent Issues in Governance Studies he power of the presidential veto is “Red and Blue Nation? Causes, a formidable one, enabling Consequences, and Correction of executives to play a critical role in America’s Polarized Politics” (May 2006) T lawmaking, and providing an important “Partisan Politics at the Water’s Edge: check on the Congress. Despite the fact Lessons from the Dubai Seaports that President Bush is an assertive Imbroglio” (June 2006) president, particularly in the realm of “Case Closed: The Debate about Global foreign policy, he has yet to veto a single Warming is Over” (June 2006) bill after more than five years in office. This is extremely unusual—the last such president was Thomas Jefferson. While the first two years of the Bush administration represented a period of narrowly divided government, Republicans subsequently have controlled the House, Senate, and White House. Even so, President Bush’s record is unique. Beginning with President Truman, there were 24 years of unified government in which presidents cast vetoes, on average, two times per year. President Bush has instead only threatened to veto bills on numerous occasions. A look at the Bush presidency in the historical context of post-WWII presidents who similarly governed during periods of unified government, with an emphasis on personalities, political institutions, and key events that have helped shape the veto-less presidency, may shed light on President Bush’s veto-free record. The Role of Unified Government Not since Thomas Jefferson has a two-term president refrained entirely from exercising the veto.
