That puts the Patriots ahead of schedule.
"So excited," senior forward
So the 20 regular-season victories under first-year coach Chris Miller, who moved into the position in the fall, are something to savor.
"20-4 and we're in every game," Miller said. "In the regular season, that's hard to do. The girls bought in."
Senior guard Hollie Boggs, who has been one of the area's standouts, said she became emotional with Friday's Senior Night victory against
"To have a better record than last year is just awesome," she said. "We've definitely come together as a team. We've reunited after losses, so that's good."
There haven't been many setbacks, even though it's tough going in a loaded Metro Conference. Sykes said the players knew what they would be facing, particularly after surprising the conference tournament field last February.
"We had goals to be better," she said.
Junior guard Shaylen Burnett has been one of the catalysts, giving the Patriots a top-line player to go with a solid nucleus.
Senior Megan Allen said proving they could excel despite the coaching change was important. She credited former coach Ron Boggs, the senior guard's father, as setting a good foundation for many of the players.
"Then to get 20 (victories) with a new coach, we settled in," Allen said. "We worked as a team. We were very encouraging for each other."
Hollie Boggs said the end of the regular season was upsetting in that it signaled a winding down of her career.
"We're a family," she said of the team. "It's just the thought of it. These are some of my best friends."
Meanwhile, Miller is also the school's softball coach. That sport began practices last week, so he has double duty.
"The main thing right now is basketball," he said.
And if the Patriots have it their way, it will stay like that for a few more weeks.

"All year round trick-or-treating, expeditions through underground labyrinths and uncovering works of reputed historians. This is just a snap shot of my internship experience on Capitol Hill, and to label it 'magically breathtaking' would be an understatement."
Thomas Chen
"The experience exceeded all my expectations and it is unbelievable how much we did and learnt in 9 weeks! Life in Sydney seems so dull in comparison and I can't wait to go back! I've already started saving for my next trip to the US."

"While gaining knowledge through conventional secondary sources is extremely valuable, I now believe that nothing compares to first-hand experience. I can honestly say that the Washington DC Placement Program was an extraordinary educational experience."
Stuart Robertson
"There's something about being in the US that makes you feel pretty important. It's probably a DC thing, but even so, you feel like the decisions the leaders are making are actually impacting the world. And that's because they are. The world looks to America for answers."
John Tawadrous
"Being immersed in the American college environment was exciting and has given me some amazing memories. It really is a once-in-a-lifetime experience so make the most of every opportunity!"

"Archaeologists have discovered that a series of earthquakes swept through the Eastern Mediterranean, including where Jericho stood, in around 1250 BC, and certainly brought walls crumbling down. However, the dates don't match with the time Joshua was supposedly conquering the land. Maybe the memory of the destruction of the towns inspired scribes to write about a great warrior who conquered cities with God's will. Or perhaps the catastrophic collapse of the old world through the earthquakes gave way to opportunism and Israelite groups took advantage of the destruction of the existing Canaanite cities and began to settle in Israel.
There is a twist to the story. Recent DNA research shows that the Canaanites and Israelites were not just similar in their cultures, they were genetically identical. Perhaps the Israelites did not conquer the land at all - they were there all along."
Very similar to the challenges to The Book of Mormon and the DNA issues surrounding that work of fiction. The Mormon church also has a problem with facts that refute their bogus history. Several scholars were excommunicated and several professors were fired from BYU because the results of their research went against Mormon scripture. Similarly, there have been numerous cries of antisemitism against the archaeologists and geneticists who revealed the above quoted results. God knows that it is a crime for research to disprove someone's long held myth.
Cue the trolls….someone needs to renounce this tightly conducted archaeological and genetic research for the truth mongering that it truly is. Damn the scientists and their audacity in not supporting our wacky religion.

Oakland Raiders Tickets
Oakland Raiders Tickets Tickets Rated 0.00/5 based on 0 customer reviews
2013 Record: 4-12 Head coach Dennis Allen is on the hot seat after two 4-12 seasons in a row. The 2013 season for the Oakland Raiders was a disappointing one. QB Matt Flynn did not work out, Darren McFadden got injured, again, and Terrelle Pryor could not stay on the field. Even reliable kicker Sebastian Janikowski had one of his worst seasons in his 14 year career. The Raiders enter the 2014 season with many question marks. They selected linebacker Khalil Mack with the fifth overall pick in the draft. Mack, from Buffalo, should make an instant impact at the NFL level. Although it looks like Matt Schaub will start for the Raiders week one they also addressed their QB needs when they selected Derek Carr, Fresno State, in the second round. Carr has impressed head coach Dennis Allen already this offseason. The Raiders continued their active offseason when they signed Maurice Jones-Drew and James Jones. Jones-Drew, a veteran running back, will hope he can rediscover some of his old magic from earlier in his career. He should also help take the load off Darren McFadden as well. Jones, formerly with the Packers, should provide whoever starts at quarterback with a solid option. The pressure is on head coach Dennis Allen to field a more competitive team. With high draft picks and new signings the Raiders look to be heading in the right direction. Get the best seat in the house with Gold Coast Tickets!

RYAN VREDE, in Edinburgh, reports Heyneke Meyer says the injury turmoil the team has had to endure this year has had positive spin-offs for their rookies that are starting to show now.
The Springboks have struggled for consistency in Meyer's first season in charge, however, one cannot ignore the affect of the mass exodus of players after the 2011 World Cup and the number of key players who have sustained injuries over the course of his tenure.
This has robbed the team of invaluable experience, and their absence has often been telling in crunch moments. However, Meyer believes that being forced to broaden his selection net has inadvertently been hugely beneficial.
'I noticed yesterday on the team bus that Francois Hougaard and Morne Steyn were sitting at the back [traditionally the domain of senior players]. Last year they were right in front. Suddenly within a year they've made that shift, which shows how short of experience this side is,' Meyer noted.
'But the great thing for me is that there are a couple of the younger players who are in or almost in double figures as far as caps are concerned. My whole aim is to get our young players to 24 and 25 years old and have 30 or 40 caps under their belt. The injury situation has been bad, but the way the likes of Eben Etzebeth and Marcell Coetzee and others have grown in a year is incredible and next year they'll be even better. In the next three years leading into the World Cup, they'll become superb.'
Meyer also explained the benefits of this tour for the likes of Arno Botha and Raymond Rhule among other players, who have been brought into the squad with a view to easing their passage into Test rugby in the years ahead.
'You can't just put a guy into the side without getting him up to speed, which was the case with Schalk Brits, who has to learn so many calls. The great thing though is that at the beginning there were six really young players in what we called our "young guns" and four of them are playing regularly now,' he said.
'For guys like Raymond and Arno, they're learning our structures and culture. I've always believed in not pushing youngsters too early. A guy like Eben Etzebeth is an exception. But the timing is so important with most young players. Arno and Raymond will learn a lot from this experience and definitely next year they'll play some Test rugby.'
All this amounts to Meyer potentially having a very big pool of players to select from in 2013. He said the benefits of that were numerous but it was also a daunting prospect.
'I don't know how I'm going to pick a team, particularly in the loose forwards, when everyone is conditioned and available. I really believe that next year we'll grow and build going into the World Cup. If we can keep the nucleus of this side together I'm very optimistic about the future.'

A four-match unbeaten run cannot erase a disastrous Tri-Nations campaign, but the Springboks' adoption of a more direct game strategy bodes well for the 2009 Test season.
It's been a turbulent first year for coach Peter de Villiers both on and off the pitch, but most supporters will shift their focus from South African rugby to South African cricket content that Saturday's 42-6 thumping of England signified a perfect end to a good season. However, what defines a good season is debatable, as it's clear South Africa failed in their primary objective.
Looking at the numbers, the Boks won nine of their 13 Tests. While this statistic may suggest success, it fails to underline the importance of the four games lost by the Boks and how a team at the top of the world in 2007 ultimately slipped to No 2 in the world in 2008. The Tri-Nations was the priority this year and yet the Boks blundered to four defeats. Saru president Regan Hoskins said two wins in this tournament was not acceptable and he was dead right. A flawed game plan was to blame, and given the improved strategical showing in the UK it appears as if the Bok management has learned from that disappointment.
The Wales and Italy Tests in June were all about preparation for the Tri-Nations, but the Boks battled under De Villiers's expansive and unstructured playing style. A weakened Wales tested the Boks in the first half at Loftus Versfeld, and the performance at the breakdown was a sign of things to come in the Tri-Nations. Wellington witnessed a rudderless display by the world champions, and what made the defeat harder to bear was the fact that New Zealand were missing most of the mob that dominated to an overwhelming degree in 2006 and 2007.
Dunedin was an undoubted highlight, with Ricky Januarie writing his name into history with a spectacular match-winning effort that ended a 10-year drought on New Zealand soil. The Boks were a man short with Victor Matfield in the sin bin, and were also the poorer for having lost captain John Smit to injury in the previous match. But Januarie provided the moment of brilliance that not only smashed the hoodoo, but also marked the first ever win for the Springboks at the House of Pain.
Success was short lived as the Boks crashed to earth in the following match against the Aussies in Perth. The Argentina blowout in the middle of the Tri-Nations was a farce as it provided little preparation for of the next fixture against New Zealand and cost the Boks' a key player in Bakkies Botha. What followed was a black day at Newlands where the Boks failed to score a single point against the All Blacks. The next weekend in Durban wasn't much better, as the Bok players and coach were booed off the field after going down to Australia.
That was only three months ago. The South African rugby community were livid with a team that had so easily relinquished the proud record of not conceding a home defeat to Australia since 2000. It also signified the end of the line in terms of the Boks' Tri-Nations aspirations, an unforgivable result given the rebuilding of the Australasian teams. De Villiers said every team went into a slump after winning the World Cup, but the fall from champs to chumps confirmed much larger problems.
Ellis Park was a triumph in that the Boks went back to what they knew. They never risked running from their own half and Butch James and Fourie du Preez controlled the game splendidly through their superior tactical kicking. The forwards smashed the Wallabies and provided the perfect platform, and once South Africa had a decent lead they opened up and eventually recorded a thrilling 53-8 victory.
A similar style was employed in Cardiff, although the Boks' execution was not as good as it was in Johannesburg. The Boks also stuttered in Scotland with assistant coach Dick Muir's promise of moving towards a more expansive approach realised in hapzard fashion. It was a forgettable showing at Murrayfield; one that in no way prepared them for the all-important clash at Twickenham a week later.
The Bok performance against England was far from perfect, but their playing style suited the occasion with Ruan Pienaar and Ricky Januarie the heroes in the tactical clash. They never ran as much from their own half as they did against Scotland, and they managed to score a couple of breath-taking tries after a patient build up. In the aftermath, De Villiers himself lamented the fact that South Africa didn't score more tries in the 42-6 victory, and that they didn't score more tries after using a more 'direct' approach to lay the platform.
This was the guy who preached the expansive, helter-skelter gospel in June. There have been inconsistencies when you hear Muir talk about pushing players to be more attacking and express themselves, but overall it appears as if De Villiers has finally seen the light. Whether everybody on the coaching staff now sees eye to eye is still up for debate, but few can deny the Boks are finally headed in the right direction.

About Kings of Leon
Kings of Leon to play Sports Illustrated event
Sports Illustrated is getting ready to celebrate the launch of its 2015 swimsuit issue in February 2015 with a first-ever, two-day event in downtown Nashville. And here's the kicker – it will include a headline performance by Kings of Leon.
Sports Illustrated partnered with the Nashville Convention & Visitors Corp. to plan what it says will be two days of fan events and musical performances on Lower Broadway currently scheduled for Feb. 11 and 12. Tents will be set up with food to go along with the various musical performances. The models from the Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition are also slated to be in attendance.
As for their part in the festivities? Kings of Leon and Mikky Ekko will play what is being called a limited-ticket engagement on Feb. 11 at the Schermerhorn Symphony Center. There will also be a ticketed package on Feb. 12, which will include an event at Acme Feed & Seed to showcase Nashville restaurants.
Sports Illustrated Publisher Brendan Ripp said, "We wanted to partner with a town that wanted to help us build the most consumer-facing brand in swimsuit. Nashville is just a great town. It's a sports town, it's a music town, it's a college town and it's a fun town. We're bringing the swimsuit franchise to fans of Sports Illustrated."
The 2015 swimsuit edition will be released Feb. 9. The issue reaches more than 70 million people worldwide.
The upcoming event will be a high profile gig for the band after its Mechanical Bull world tour was disrupted in 2014. They were forced to cancel a number of shows after Nathan Followill sustained injuries in a bus accident. Followill was hurt when a pedestrian reportedly jumped in front of the band's tour bus during their North American run. He sustained broken ribs during the resulting emergency stop.
Kings of Leon ride the "Mechanical Bull" (Updated 1/19/14)
The last time we talked about Kings of Leon, the band was getting ready to work on its sixth studio album. That project, "Mechanical Bull," was released on September 24, 2013 behind the lead single "Supersoaker."
As it turns out, "Supersoaker" was the perfect summer song when it rolled out back in July of last year. It was followed by the release of the second single titled "Wait for Me," on August 6. Then, during the Heineken Open'er Festival 2013, Kings of Leon performed "Don't Matter," another new track from the album. That trio definitely gave fans a sneak peek of the music to come long before they ever took a ride on the "Mechanical Bull."
With the album release now behind them, Kings of Leon – Caleb, Jared, Nathan, plus their cousin Matthew Followill – moved on to their next project. Their song "Last Mile Home" is featured on the soundtrack for the film "August: Osage County," which is based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning play by Tracy Letts and stars an All-Star cast including Meryl Streep, Julia Roerts, Margot Martindale, Chris Cooper, Benedict Cumberbatch, Juliette Lewis, Julianne Nicholson, Ewan McGregor, Dermot Mulroney, Abigail Breslin and Sam Shepard.
Kings of Leon also recently performed on NBC stalwart "Saturday Night Live," and kick off their 2014 tour in February. Some early dates include stops in Atlanta, Nashville, Louisville and Detroit.

Kings of Leon rule the day and 'Night' (Updated November 20, 2012)
The turn of the century was particularly kind to Kings of Leon, which used musical diversity to impress a much wider audience. The group released three albums between 2003-2007, but it was 2008's "Only by the Night" which sent the popularity of the band soaring.
A multi-platinum project, "Only by the Night" debuted in the Top 5 on the Billboard Top 200 chart, went to No. 1 in five countries and has sold more than 6.5 million copies worldwide. The lead single, "Sex on Fire," was followed by the smash "Use Somebody," which became the band's first top 10 hit in the U.S. The album was nominated for Best Rock Album at the 51st Grammy Awards, where the band earned four trophies overall, including a win for Record of the Year.
The popularity of Kings of Leon was surreal at this point, as the band appeared on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine, performed on NBC's Saturday Night Live and headlined Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza and Austin City Limits.
The band's fifth album, "Come Around Sundown," was released in late 2010 and was supported by a tour which included more than 50 stops in North America and Europe. The end of the U.S. leg was canceled after Caleb appeared heavily intoxicated in Dallas, Texas and disappeared from the stage. On October 31, 2011 the band announced a hiatus, though Jared tweeted on August 23, 2012 that Kings of Leon would be 'working on album 6 very soon.'

DARKE COUNTY - Scott Webber, 29, of Greenville, began his first day on trial Tuesday for the death of his 16-month-old daughter. Webber is charged with child endangerment, a felony of the third degree, and involuntary manslaughter, a felony of the first degree.
The charges stem from an investigation indicating that Webber, along with Lauren K. Jones, 28, gave their daughter an over-the-counter sleep-aid, ZzzQuil, in February 2013. The young girl was found to have died of asphyxiation which could have been caused by the sleeping environment and/or medication.
Webber chose to waive his right to a trial by jury and instead chose to be tried by Judge Jonathan P. Hein of the Court of Common Pleas.
A number of officers initially responded to last year's February emergency call pertaining to the girl, and were later called to offer testimony.
At one point during the trial, Darke County Sheriff Deputy Tom Nichols confirmed specific items which were found in the crib, which the prosecution claimed caused obstruction to the child's breathing.
"This baby was in a really terrible sleep environment. She had a huge number of things thrown into the crib with her, blankets, scarves and blue jeans and toys and plush animals and pillows….," said Prosecuting Attorney Kelly Ormsby.
The crux of the case was partially based on whether the child's level of diphenhydramine, a common ingredient in sleep aids, could be definitively said to have contributed to the child's death.
To provide insight on the topic, both the prosecution and defense summoned expert medical witnesses to provide their opinions, which included the testimony of Dr. Bryan D. Casto, Montgomery County Forensic Pathologist Deputy Coroner and Dr. Laureen Marinetti, Forensic Toxicologist at Montgomery County Coroner's Office.
"There will be a battle of the experts, your honor, to state what effect, if any, the diphenhydramine had to do with this child's death," said Defense Attorney David Rohrer.
The trial is scheduled to continue on today.

I wonder how difficult it would be to set up a website that would distribute this book to American Christian Fundamentalists. The idea would be pretty simple, we could set up a website where users could donate money to our cause. The likely donors would be people who have read the book, and then end up at samharris.org. The work would entail the gathering of names of fundamentalists from Churches, Political Rallies, User Entry ... etc. Ultimately whoever ran the website would use the donated money to send a free book to a randomly selected Christian fundamentalist. Maybe Sam would be willing to write a cover letter. I think this could make at least a small difference (hopefully before November 2). I would be willing to help out on this effort, but my web-programming skills are sub-par. Are there others out there willing to help? Maybe from Knopf?

EWE Baskets Oldenburg have avoided paying the price for some late complacency, sneaking home over guests Khimik, 82-74, in game of their EuroChallenge quarter-final play-off series.
A tensely fought duel unravelled over the first 20 minutes in Oldenburg with EWE Baskets and Khimik trading the lead on nine occasions and tying it on a further six occasions.
The first real break of the game went in the favour of the hosts in the run up to half-time with EWE Baskets allowed to score the last five points of the frame to hold a six-point lead at the buzzer.
The break failed to help Khimik regain their composure, and incidentally, failed to stop the hot hands of the hosts with a Julius Jenkins' three putting the Germans up by nine, 47-36, early in the third quarter.
Despite a time-out in response to the three, Khimik failed to regroup as EWE Baskets continued to race ahead on some inspired shooting from Chris Kramer who had the home-side up 63-49 with his 11th point of the night late in the third quarter.
Leading by 13 with a frame to play, it appeared the minds of the Oldenburg players were already concerning themselves with other affairs as Khimik snuck back up to be within four points on a Willie Deane jump shot with just over a minute to play.
However, cool heads prevailed for the Germans as Kramer and Jenkins confirmed the win by both making a late pair from the charity stripe.
Jenkins ended with a game-high 23 points on perfect three-for-three downtown shooting whilst Kramer made five assists to go with 15 points.
Deane was the best of the guests with 19 points.

Khimik assistant coach Vitaly Stepanovski"It was a very tough game for us. Oldenburg had a lot of time to prepare for us and it showed. We tried a lot of different defensive setups and have learned what works against them and what doesn't. We weren't surprised by their quality of play and are encouraged that we stayed in the game until the end. We are looking forward to playing them again in two days."
Khimik player Artem Pustovyi"We had a chance to win it with our comeback in the last quarter, but we ran out of luck in the last minutes. We fought hard for 40 minutes but today that was not enough. Still it was plain to see, that both teams are equally matched and that the series will probably be decided in three games."
Oldenburg head coach Sebastian Machowski"It was important to win game one. The end result is not that important, but the game never needed to be this close. We were careless with our chances and wasted a lot of easy opportunities. Still we controlled the game for the whole time and got our stops when needed. What we need to improve between now and Thursday is the defense against their strong inside-outside combinations and we need to keep them away from the offensive boards."
Oldenburg guard Julius Jenkins"I tried to be aggressive today and my teammates got me very good looks and worked really hard. The first half was a bit frustrating because so many layups went in and out and we left a lot of points on the table. We look forward to play again in two days, despite the long travel. It is a good rhythm to have games this frequently and we players really enjoy our game right now."

To ensure the continued success of the Mann Center, ongoing support is needed, both in the form of permanent endowments and in annual giving. Annual, non-endowed gifts benefit specific programs while making possible the ongoing work of the Center. Endowed gifts provide donors the opportunity to create an enduring legacy in their name that supports a specific initiative of the Center, while endowed sponsorships provide an ongoing source of income to promote the success of all Center initiatives.
For more information, please contact Azalea Hulbert at 205.726.4634. Gifts may also be made online via the University Advancement website.
The Mann Center is developing a new, boutique honors program for Samford undergraduates. The program, which will involve both academic and co-curricular components, will build students into ethical leaders and positive agents of change. Upon successful completion of the four-year program, students will receive an undergraduate certificate. The program will entail significant administrative and program costs, as well as scholarship and travel expenses for students.
The Mann Center is offering named endowments to promote excellence in ethics education, which will be used to support the general work of the Center. However, donors may designate a small percentage of the funds to focus on a specific area of ethics education (e.g. nursing, journalism, etc.).
The Mann Center's Better World Theatre initiative, a collaboration between the center and the Samford Department of Theatre and Dance, allows students to explore ethical issues in their field of study by acting out scenarios they are likely to encounter in the professional world. Produced, directed, and performed by students, these plays allow both the actors and the audience to gain a better understanding of the challenges they will face in their careers.
The Mann Center produces a series of video interviews with thought leaders on current topics of interest, titled Conversations on Ethics and Leadership. To date, interviews with experts in politics and law, business, and bioethics have been produced.
The Mann Center convenes an ongoing, occasional series of campus forums called Courageous Conversations, co-sponsored by University Ministries and other Samford entities. The programs encourage moral discourse about critical issues, with past programs focusing on diversity; immigration; academic honesty; freedom of expression in cyberspace; sex and sexual conduct; and inclusivity towards individuals with physical and mental disabilities, among others.
The Mann Center serves as a resource for students, staff, faculty, and the community in the field of ethics and leadership. Our mission to become the thought leader in public discussion of ethics and leadership, both locally and nationally, will require a comprehensive, world-class collection of books, periodicals, online resources/subscriptions, and other media offering the latest in ethical and moral thought. The resource center will serve as the academic backbone of all that is taught and learned at the center, ensuring a level of scholarship worthy of the field, and of Samford University.
These resources will be available to Samford students, faculty, and staff and to the general public. While many resources may be housed online, donations are also welcome to support a physical collection and maintain a devoted space where faculty and staff, students, and community members can study, collaborate, and reflect.
The Mann Center conducts annual international service practica, which are open to both undergraduate and graduate students. These projects, in collaboration with Samford's Office of Student Leadership and Community Engagement, allow students to lead social change through economic empowerment. The center currently conducts an annual service practicum in South Africa, and is seeking other opportunities around the globe.
In collaboration with Samford's schools and other departments, the Mann Center is developing leadership academies for both faculty and students. As the development process continues, specific needs and naming opportunities will be identified; please contact the Center to learn more.
The Mann Center serves as an incubator for new courses and other initiatives that promote moral development and build competencies in ethical leadership. These fellowships will make it possible for three to five faculty fellows each year to devote substantial time to this important work.
Funds will support fellows' research and cover the costs incurred by academic departments that release these scholars from a portion of their teaching responsibilities. These prestigious fellowships, the first of their kind at Samford, will make it possible for the Mann Center to produce a continuous stream of research and course content benefiting the entire Samford campus and the business community. An annual, competitive application process will select Fellows.
To support its continued growth, donations are needed to maintain and furnish the physical offices of the Mann Center. Naming opportunities are available through both endowed and one-time gifts; please contact the Center to learn more.
The Mann Center periodically brings nationally and internationally known speakers to Samford to discuss relevant issues with campus and community audiences. Speakers are drawn from across the professions and academia, and represent diverse fields including philosophy, business, journalism, sociology, and politics, to name a few.
Ongoing funding is needed to cover the cost of speaker travel and honoraria, as well as general administrative costs associated with the planning and execution of such programs. Support may be provided annually, or as a one-time endowment. The donor may specify a focus area (i.e. healthcare ethics, ethics and law, etc.), with final selection of individual speakers as the responsibility of the Center.
In collaboration with Samford's schools and other departments, the Mann Center is creating an award that will be given to nine students each year who exemplify excellence in ethical leadership. As the award program is further developed, specific needs and naming opportunities will be identified; please contact the Center to learn more.
Samford University awards the Mann Medal in Ethics and Leadership annually to nationally or internationally known leaders or organizations whose efforts have made significant contributions to ethics in society. The work recognized with the award must address a clear need or problem facing society, have significance on a large scale and be an inspiring example for others to follow. Sponsorships are available starting at $3,000, and cover expenses such as the cost of the ceremony and medal, travel expenses for the honoree, and a gift to the honoree's organization or foundation.
Benefits include: recognition in promotional materials and during the event; a reserved table for the sponsor's guests; and access to a private reception with the medalist for sponsors. Presenting sponsors receive these benefits, as well as an additional reserved table for guests and the opportunity for an appropriate representative of the sponsoring organization to participate in the presentation of the medal.
The Mann Society is an opportunity for businesses, professional firms and other institutions to join others in promoting ethical leadership. New leaders are stepping forward to invest their influence, experience and resources in the social capital necessary to build a more sustainable moral infrastructure – one that promotes sound ethical practices in all professions to emphasize personal responsibility and living well together for the good of all. Through education, mentorship, policy and personal example, the Mann Society fosters solutions to today's ethical challenges in business and the professions.
Benefits include: exclusive opportunities for Mann Society senior managers and executives to participate in special Mann Center events with their peers; reserved seating made available upon request for all Mann Center events; prominent display of your firm's name and logo on the Mann Center website and promotional materials; reserved seating for selected Samford University cultural events (ballet, theatre, athletics) with fellow Mann Society members; and special presentations by the center's director at your location, customized for the management and employees of your organization.

The Stories of Paul Bowles
The Stories of Paul Bowles (Paperback)
The short fiction of American literary cult figure Paul Bowles is marked by a unique, delicately spare style, and a dark, rich, exotic mood, by turns chilling, ironic, and wrypossessing a symmetry between beauty and terror that is haunting and ultimately moral. In "Pastor Dowe at TecatÉ," a Protestant missionary is sent to a faraway place where his God has no power. In "Call at CorazÓn," an American husband abandons his alcoholic wife on their honeymoon in a South American jungle. In "Allal," a boy's drug-induced metamorphosis into a deadly serpent leads to his violent death. Here also are some of Bowles's most famous works, including "The Delicate Prey," a grimly satisfying tale of vengeance, and "A Distant Episode," which Tennessee Williams proclaimed "a masterpiece."
About the Author
Paul Bowles was born in Queens, New York, in 1910. He began his travels as a teenager, setting off for Paris, telling no one of his plans. In 1930 he visited Morocco for the first time, with Aaron Copland, with whom he was studying music. His early reputation was as a composer and he wrote the scores for several Tennessee Williams plays. Bowles married the writer Jane Auer in 1938, and after the war the couple settled in Tangier. In Morocco Bowles turned principally to fiction. The Sheltering Skyinspired by his travels in the Saharawas a New York Times bestseller in 1950, and has gone on to sell more than 250,000 copies. It was followed by three further novels, numerous short stories, nonfiction, and translations. Bowles died in Tangier in 1999.
