Women And Minorities In Education Education Essay
Published: Last Edited:
This essay has been submitted by a student. This is not an example of the work written by our professional essay writers.
Influences In the field of education there are a myriad of factors that affect students and how they learn. Education is more than just the knowledge presented in the classroom. It is also a product of many environmental and individual factors as well. For each individual student, their gender and ethnicity has a real effect on their ability to understand and learn the material being presented. This is not only for psychological reasons, but for environmental and cultural reasons as well. Statistically, there are many things that are going to change a person's perceptive and understanding, and when it comes to education and knowledge, gender and race have a very significant psychological impact on the student.
One of the most hotly discussed topics in education is the subject of standardized testing. Standardized testing is generally a national test meant to measure something educationally quantifiable in the general population. For example, the IQ - intelligence quotient - test is meant to measure and compare 'natural' intelligence at different levels of development. Other standardized tests, such as the CTBS - California Test of Basic Skills - and the HSCT - High School Competency Test, serve to test how students have progressed at different levels of their education. (Irizzary 2002) Now when saying that these tests are meant for the general student population, this means that they are primarily geared to white, middle class American students. In more recent years, part of the student questionnaire asks the race, ethnicity and gender, and there are results available within those classifications as well.
The fact that a student is in a minority - whether it is due to cultural, racial or gender differences - has some interesting interplay on how that student is guided or understood by others around him or her. "Past minority influence research has found that the number of minority subgroup members and argument quality can affect the likelihood of the minority subgroup being able to influence the majority subgroup. How minority size and argument quality affect minority influence and perceptions of the minority is addressed in this study. Confederates were used to vary argument quality and the size of the minority subgroup while keeping consistency of presenting the minority's side of the issue constant. Groups discussed a topic and measures were used to assess the amount of influence, perceived competence, perceived correctness, and how much the minority was liked. Results indicated that both argument quality and minority size were important when attempting to influence the majority and a large minority can compensate for a minority using weak arguments while a small minority using weak arguments results in strengthening the majority's initial opinion. The perceptions fostered by the minority were a function of an argument quality by group size interaction." (Limon, 2001) In other words, this particular study showed that no matter what sort of minority group is the identity of a particular student, it is up to the group, - and ultimately the student - to show strong arguments that will allow that minority to have its own place for interpretation of the subject matter. That is how those students will absorb and adapt the material being taught in ways that will improve themselves and others in their minority.
Gender also plays a role, both physical and psychological in how students learn. Children that have been in preschool prior to starting a formal elementary education have a very defined sense of their gender roles. The males know that hands-on approach, such as block building and playing with cars is how they learn, while the females tend to learn in a more sociable manner. In the past, especially the sixties and seventies, boys in high school were expected to take classes such as woodworking and machine shop, while girls were guided to home economics and art. While men have a more natural inclination to leadership, women do not stay far behind either. "My dad embedded in me the simple philosophy that no on can ride your back unless you bend over," Holder said. "The marches, the civil rights meetings, the sit-ins, the walk-outs and watching my dad encounter injustice and prejudice firsthand instilled in me the sense of determination to make a difference, the tenacity to stand tall when others choose to sit, and the commitment to be the change I want to see." (Anonymous, 2010) This particular lady was in the sixties a member of the civil rights movement, and though it was not accepted at the time, she played an important role in her city as a voice for the unspoken.
One can argue that there are measurable differences between genders and how they learn. According to the Educational Testing Service, White males score 100 points higher, on average, than minority men and both minority and nonminority women on the Graduate Records Examination. According to Payne, the GRE tests critical thinking skills and reasoning, which "are necessary but not sufficient" to achieving success in graduate school. (Watson 2010) This exam is a measure of how students are prepared to enter graduate school. The results of this exam show that there are variances in the educational patterns among the genders and races, being that white males are the highest scorers and minority females the lowest. This can be due to several factors, especially different opportunities that may not be available to all genders and races throughout their educational career. While the elementary school population of students in America is very culturally diverse, by the time students reach college and beyond, minorities are severely underrepresented and less educated, as evidenced by this exam. Psychologically, two students can be equally able to learn and absorb or interpret the material, but the physical, environmental and socio-economic factors are going to make their impact as demonstrated in various ways.
Ethnicity affects how a student learns in a few ways. A study created a model that presented cultural differences in education. In this model, culture is conceptualized as traditions of practice and as a societal field. The school practice and the role of the family and their differences in value positions about school life are interpreted as a central factor for children's involvement and participation in school and for the type of conflict they may face. The type of conflict and the individual's strategy for dealing with it influence the children's development of motives and identity. Discrepancies and conflicts between students' motives and their parents' value positions about school life are analyzed to see how this influences young persons' feelings of well-being and development of motives and competencies. (Hedegaard, 2005) The study analyzed the parents and the students, concluding that the more parental involvement was present, regardless of the culture, the more invested the student was in their education and in achieving certain goals, regardeless of the outside pressure of friends from other cultures.
There are significant differences when it comes to social and financial and ethnic status. While it may not seem like a huge factor in the education, it does play a large role in shaping the person, especially given the economic climate of the United States at the present time. A report called the American Human Development Index was just released - which measures the estimated American well-being and opportunity, calculated from official government data; it measures the three basic building blocks of a good life--health, education, and income. The report presents strong evidence that the capabilities a person has going into a crisis--ranging from a financial downturn to a man-made or natural disaster--strongly determine how fast he or she can bounce back. (Anonymous 2010) This basically proves how different groups and people react to difficult circumstances. The results showed that women and Asian Americans were the most resilient, while men and Native Americans were the least resilient. By resilient, the study means to show the flexibility to adapt to situations and develop coping and other behavioral mechanisms to deal with ongoing stress or crisis.
This particular study is also evidence that socioeconomic status has much to do with behaviors and cultural adaptations - which in turn affect the person and their perception and priority on education. Culturally, Asian Americans - especially the Chinese and Japanese - place enormous emphasis on education, fully expecting their children to complete college or higher. In the Texas (Houston area), only 54 percent of adults over 25 have completed high school, whereas in Colorado (southern suburbs of Denver), 97 percent of adults hold at least a high school diploma. These area and environmental differences also show in early education as well. In Nevada, fewer than three in ten 3- and 4-year olds are enrolled in preschool, whereas in New Jersey, nearly seven in ten are enrolled in preschool. (Anonymous 2010) This is a very important observation on why the financial and cultural environment of the person plays a role in the education, because these figures reinforce the economic reality that in the Midwest median salaries are lower than those in the East. This is the interconnectedness between race, culture, environment, and economic status that affects student and persons of all ages in the United States today.
There are many other opportunities that as professionals one needs in order to enhance your career. Professional organizations such as the National Association of Hispanic Journalists have sprung up to help a particular group, in this case Hispanics, achieve in a particular career field. "According to literature on social influence, a minority source may indirectly influence group members by fostering ambivalent reactions. Two studies were carried out in order to provide empirical support for this theoretical assumption. In Study 1 participants (n = 133), were exposed to a counter-attitudinal minority message and ambivalence was manipulated by facilitating the accessibility of either ambivalent (positive and negative) or univalent (positive or negative) thoughts toward the source. No effect of ambivalence on direct influence was found. In Study 2 (n = 127), ambivalence was measured and two possible antecedents of ambivalence, consistency of the minority and personal relevance of the topic for participants, were taken into account. Findings suggest that ambivalence mediates the effects of the two factors on indirect influence." (Pagliaro, 2008) This study is basically stating that in order for a minority to suceed, they have to create a position on either an issue or an event they want to accomplish, then push the majority group in order to create some influence. If you were to take the context of this study and apply it to education, it can be used in the following manner. As a minority student, female, there are already two factors blocking the effectiveness of the general education in the school system. So if psychologically a student with these two factors working against them turns around and uses positive thinking and reinforces themselves daily, that will help the daily struggle within the system. The student also has to have the inner desire and motivation, or self-efficacy, to be resourceful and create events and situations where they can better themselves educationally. Being fully aware that the particular student will most likely lack resources such as computers or research facilities or other things based on their environment, they must be mentally prepared to overcome the obstacles created by the socio-economic and cultural conditions in which they find themselves in order to achive their educational goals. Although a majority opinion often prevails, sometimes a minority can influence and even overturn a majority position. Even if the majority does not adopt the minority's views, the minority's speaking up can increase the majority's self-doubts and prompt it to consider other alternatives, often leading to better, more creative decisions. In experiments, a minority is most influential when it is consistent and persistent in it views, when its actions convey self-confidence, and after it begins to elicit some defections from the majority. (Myers 2010).
It is obvious that gender, race, culture and socio-economic status do play a large role in the education of students. The studies discussed show how a tenacious individual can use their psychological strength to overcome the obstacles that begin as negatives and use them to become a positive. Of course the student that grows up in inner-city Detroit is going to have many more challenges than the student growing up in Martha's Vineyard, but if the two individuals are psychologically able to learn, they will both learn, due more to their interior makeup than any other reason.

In a very large building, in the shadow of a Californian mountain range, several hundred toy designers are quietly going about the business of trying to relieve the world's parents of their hard-earned money. Some stand at easels, sketching plastic action figures. Others make technical diagrams of toy cars. A man called Alex shows me a pencil-drawn animation of some tiny robots, which are apparently going to be very big in Japan.
It's an untidy business, creating the next must-have kids' accessory. Desks are laden with Winnie the Pooh teddies, and dismembered Barbie Dolls. Racks of branded T-shirts and sparkly princess outfits line the corridors. Inflatable pool toys dangle precariously from the ceiling. And, as if to prove that old gender stereotypes still haven't died, about 50 per cent of the plastic clutter – the stuff that will be sold to little girls – is a shamelessly lurid shade of pink.
The building, which sits on an industrial estate in Glendale, a satellite city just north of Los Angeles, is the global headquarters of Disney Consumer Products, the division of the entertainment conglomerate charged with inventing tie-ins to Disney films and TV shows. It houses the guys who invent everything from Mickey Mouse pencil cases, to Hannah Montana hair clips, to cuddly replicas of that strange orange fish from Finding Nemo.
"There's one word we always use here: 'toyetic'," says Luis Fernandez, the division's creative chief. "If we say a film is naturally 'toyetic' that's good, because it means it's the sort of project that can inspire lots of toys."
Being "toyetic" represents an increasingly important part of the film industry's commercial future: last year, Disney Consumer Products made $27bn (£18.6bn). In the next five years, they aim to almost double that figure, to $50bn (£34.5bn).
Helping them on their way, in the short term, at least, is the imminent return of perhaps the most "toyetic" film franchise ever invented. Toy Story 3, which opens in the US next week and hits British cinemas in July, has inspired a range of more than 250 branded products from Lego sets and video games, to special-edition plastic potato heads.
The range includes 25 dolls modelled on the star of the show: a plastic spaceman called Buzz Lightyear. Some are a couple of inches high, and made of immobile plastic. The swankiest, an 18-inch remote controlled "Programmable Robot" can walk, talk and high-five. He costs $150 (£101) in the US. In rip-off Britain, he'll set you back a cool £200.
Buzz is the symbol of a creeping trend that is changing the way Hollywood goes about creating and marketing its new films. Put bluntly, commercial tie-ins have become more valuable than the movies. The first two Toy Story films, for example, made roughly $800m at the box office. But they helped sell 35 million replica Lightyears (and countless other toys), netting at least $8bn.
In years gone by, the economics of movie-making were relatively straightforward: if a flick generated more cash via the box office, DVD and TV than it cost, the company behind it turned a profit. If it didn't, the company made a loss. But now, that paradigm has shifted: as Toy Story shows, a movie which inspires successful ranges of branded toys and clothes, is far more valuable on the high street than it ever can be in cinemas. And next week, the entertainment industry's biggest cheeses meet in Las Vegas to exploit this trend at the Licensing International Expo, a vast annual event dedicated to helping wring profitable sidelines out of films. With studios gambling on ever-higher production budgets, stakes are high. Sales of film-related toys rose 41 per cent between 2004 and 2008, and now represent a quarter of the entire US toy trade.
Your average action movie now costs $200m, and toys are an increasingly important part of their business model. Look at this summer's high-profile new films, and the rest of this year's box office charts, and you'll see a plethora of "toyetic" titles, from Shrek and Iron Man, to Alice in Wonderland, Clash of the Titans, and, of course, Avatar. They are not just movies, but branding opportunities.
Disney's big launch for next year is Tangled, an animated reworking of the Rapunzel myth which has inspired a range of girls' dolls with extremely long hair, which is made from special fibres that glow and twinkle, exploiting traditional play patterns that have been around since the invention of Barbie.
"The best films, for us, give you toys for boys and girls," says Fernandez. "That's not easy, because they want different things. Boys want to create play patterns that involve a narrative of good versus evil. They also like ray guns, weaponry, and toys that allow them to change costumes. Those are boy-specific things. Girls? They love the colour pink, they always like dolls that allow hair play. Their demands are very different."
Adults also come into the calculations. Since the 1970s, when the oil crisis prompted the makers of Star Wars to launch a range of comparatively small plastic figurines which fans could collect as well as play with, film-makers have also worked to create new projects that cater to the so-called "fanboy" market. If a film doesn't tick these commercial boxes, it will now struggle to get green-lit, however exciting its plot may seem.
Making fresh toys requires considerable foresight. Disney's designers typically begin work on a new range two years before a film comes out. At that stage, scripts are still not finished and even the existence of the film is often top secret (they sign heavy confidentiality agreements).
Chris Heatherly, vice president of the consumer products unit, explains that they work from storyboards and sketches of the principal characters. Creating the right toys is often about gut feeling. "You try to understand what a kid is going to want to go home and recreate after walking out of that theatre," he says. "You're looking for key moments in the plot, which preferably have action, and at key characters."
After that, Heatherly organises lengthy "brain storming" sessions. Drawings are sketched, and prototypes modelled. An "inventory" of products is compiled. The film-makers are asked what they think of them, and the range is further refined. Eventually, a year before the film hits cinemas, plastic moulds are made and production lines in China start churning out the kit.
If they take too long, disaster beckons. For the 1997 film Hercules, which underwent late rewrites and only went ahead with a few months' notice, Disney released only a tiny range of ill thought-out toys, and took a financial hit as a result. Since then, major studios have lengthened their production schedules, and become more collegiate about their creative process – a development which some critics say tends to beat the originality out of new movies.
Not every film that sounds "toyetic" works. In Heatherly's office, next to mounds of Toy Story merchandise, are some forlorn-looking products inspired by Prince of Persia. That movie, itself inspired by a successful video game, had toy-makers smacking their chops, but it opened last week to appalling box office results.
A toy has to do the same thing as a good film: to entertain, and spark a user's imagination. "When people make what we call a 'watch me' toy, kids just don't want to play with it," says Heatherly. "I've spent my life watching kids in toy stores. They may watch a flashy toy once, but then get bored. The most advanced technology a kid has is their imagination." And, it seems, the most valuable.

(4 April – Brussels): The European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries and Associations, EFPIA, is pleased to have supported the Roundtable on "Health and Pharmaceutical; promoting growth, innovation and access to healthcare and pharmaceuticals through EU-Africa Business Cooperation, including local production of generic medicines in Africa". Taking place during this week's EU-Africa Business Summit, the Roundtable brought together diverse participants from the healthcare and pharmaceutical industries to discuss and determine recommendations aimed to improve healthcare in Africa. The conclusions of the Roundtable were summarised in a series of recommendations that have been presented to the heads of states EU-Africa Summit.
The EU-Africa Business Summit offered an opportunity to discuss the role of different stakeholders and how they can collaborate more effectively in both Europe and emerging economies. Representatives from the healthcare and pharmaceutical sectors included: Dr. Francois Bompart, VP Deputy Head & Medical Director for Access to Medicines at Sanofi, and Chair of EFPIA's Global Health Initiative; Nick Haggar, President, Head of Western Europe, Middle-East & Africa at Sandoz; and Margaret Ndomondo-Sigonda, Pharmaceutical Coordinator, NEPAD Planning and coordinating Agency: African Medicines Regulatory Harmonization Initiative.
EFPIA Director General Richard Bergstrom stated: "I am pleased to see my member companies, and industry as a whole, investing more in Africa. We need constructive partnerships in which both the public and private sector are fully engaged. A constructive dialogue with key stakeholders from both continents is a must if we want to equip Africa with the means to help built its own more prosperous future. As the source of new and improved medicines, the research-based pharmaceutical industry has a responsibility engage in the dialogue surrounding global health issues – after all, our medicines serve patients around the world, not just in Europe. The discussion of this past week is a good starting point, but it's only the beginning – there is more to be done."
The full recommendations from the pharmaceutical and healthcare stakeholders are available on the EFPIA website. Key recommendations include:
- An AU – EU political commitment at the summit to take immediate action, in coordination with WHO, to ban substandard medicines causing health risks;
- All government criminalizing counterfeiting of medicines, by e.g. implementing national and regional laws or sign the MEDICRIME Convention;
- Increase EU-African collaboration on universal health coverage alongside those countries that mobilized resources towards the Abuja commitment of 15% of her national budget for health.
Following the Roundtable, EFPIA hosted an EU-Africa debate on non-communicable diseases, under the patronage of Rebecca Taylor MEP. The debate featured speakers from the NCD Alliance, the International Association of Patient Organisations and the European Pharmaceutical Industry. The outcomes of the debate will be published on the EFPIA website and addressed the role of companies in building integrated care systems and the challenges of improving health literacy in an emerging economy. This is a continuation of previous debates held as part of EFPIA's Global Health Initiative.
In the same week, GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) announced plans to make a series of research and manufacturing investments in sub-Saharan Africa, including open source research projects targeting Non-Communicable Diseases. The company will invest up to £130m in its manufacturing presence in the region over the next five years.

A murderous cannibal recounts his past and is reborn.

General Butt Naked, now Joshua Blahyi, takes us for a tour of the area he once controlled as a warlord. Now a converted Christian, Joshua recounts a day in the life of a cannibalistic general: eating the hearts of innocent children, training boys to kill, murdering enemies under the African sun. We learn of the secret powers of fighting completely naked and are taken to a spot where only a day earlier an assassination attempt was made on Joshua's life. Today, Joshua preaches the gospel, helping to rehabilitate the former child soldiers who were most psychologically damaged by the horrific violence of their youth.

Russian Lawmaker Says Moscow to Deploy Weapons Near Poland
Viktor Zavarzin, head of the defense committee in the State Duma, said Thursday Russia has new weapons that will be installed near the sites where Washington plans to deploy interceptor missiles.
The Itar-Tass news agency quoted Zavarzin as saying there are proposals to deploy tactical nuclear weapons in the Kaliningrad region bordering Poland, but that for now there is no need for such a move.
Webmaster's Commentary:
Should this happen, the US will have no one else but itself to blame for this escalation in tensions.

Gold Rush Mother Lode Adventure Race Joins AR World SeriesBy Kungfujedi @Kungfujedi
A couple of weeks back I told you about a great adventure race called the Gold Rush Mother Lode that is scheduled to take place in California from September 8-11. At the time, I mentioned how the race was expedition length, but not grueling long, and that it was a very affordable option for teams that didn't have the time or resources to take pat in one of the longer races happening in North America this year. It turns out that the organizers of the Mother Lode have given us yet one more reason to put this race on the radar, as they announced over the weekend that they are now a part of the Adventure Racing World Series.
What this means for racers is that there is now a second ARWS qualifying event taking place in North America this year, the other being the Raid the North Extreme event which will be held in British Columbia this July. Those who do manage to qualify will be able to compete agains the very best teams in the world at the XPD in Tasmania this October. Traditionally, Untamed New England would also be a qualifier as well, but they've elected to take their show on the road to Switzerland this year.
This is just more proof as to how great 2011 is for both teams and fans of adventure racing. There are so many great events taking place this year that its hard to keep track of them all, and the AR World Series just continues to grow and become more prominent. The inclusion of the Mother Lode into that series is great for the ARWS and for teams looking to go to Australia later this year.

World Nuclear Industry Status Report 2013 Two years after the Fukushima disaster started unfolding on 11 March 2011, its impact on the global nuclear industry has become increasingly visible. Global electricity generation from nuclear plants dropped by a historic 7 percent in 2012, adding to the record drop of 4 percent in 2011. This World Nuclear Industry Status Report 2013 (WNISR) provides a global overview of the history, the current status and the trends of nuclear power programs worldwide.
Over 3 dozen U.S. Nuclear Reactors at Risk of Early Retirement The tough times the U.S. nuclear power industry faces today are only going to get worse. In the wake of nine major nuclear reactor closures or uprate cancellations in recent months, a review of the remaining U.S. fleet reveals that 38 reactors in 23 states are at risk of early retirement. The reasons listed in this "renaissance in reverse" include competition from lower-cost energy sources, falling demand, safety retrofit expenses, costly repairs, and rising operating costs.

Canada Aids and Abets the Spectre of Nuclear Terrorism Last year, NATO concluded that nuclear weapons would remain a core component of their arsenal and strategic planning (with no peep of protest from Canada). Canada's response to this reality is, among other activities, a secretive working plan to ship large amounts of bomb-grade uranium from Chalk River through the Ottawa Valley and to the United States for "reprocessing." Anyone who thinks this uranium will not wind up in a new nuclear weapon might be interested in some oceanfront Arizona property.
Energy Minister Chiarelli Puts Consumers & Conservation First Ontario's Energy Minister Bob Chiarelli announced that the Government of Ontario will pursue all cost-effective energy conservation and efficiency measures before investing in new higher-cost power plants. This is a victory for consumers and common sense.
Save before you spend: A better way to meet Ontario's energy needs For every dollar invested in energy conservation, three dollars are saved. Not a bad return.

Many of you wrote us concerning Margaret Wente's piece in this week's Globe and Mail. Ontario Clean Air Alliance chair Jack Gibbons responded with a letter to the editor which was published (though edited):
Dear Editor,
Margaret Wente's astonishing claim that nuclear power is cheap is reminiscent of the nuclear industry's 1950s assertion that nuclear power would be too cheap to meter ["Staying cool?" – July 18th]
Unfortunately, there is no evidence to support these claims. In fact, every nuclear project in Ontario's history has been late and massively over budget – on average by 2.5 times. And the cost overruns have been passed on to Ontario's electricity consumers.
It has recently been revealed, through an access-to-information request, that cost overruns on New Brunswick's Point Lepreau reactor re-build project were double the close to $1 billion previously reported – yet another example of the way nuclear costs are kept hidden to sustain the myth of cheap nuclear power.
It simply does not make economic sense to re-build the aging Darlington Nuclear Station at a cost of 19 to 37 cents per kWh, when energy efficiency can reduce demand for only 3 cents per kWh and when we can import clean, hydro-electricity from Quebec for 4 cents per kWh.
Since 2003 the Government of Ontario has signed thousands of contracts with renewable and natural gas-fired power producers. None of these suppliers are allowed to pass their cost overruns on to consumers. Nuclear power projects should be subject to the same market discipline. If nuclear power is forced to compete on a level playing field, the market will reveal that it is the highest cost option to keep our lights on.

Vermont's rich cultural heritage is also a product of the thoughts and actions of Abolitionists, writers, religious leaders, intellectuals, and everyday people. Culture and art are abundant in Vermont. Museum resources in Vermont range from working farms to repositories of great art; from a famous fly fishing collection to a school built by the man reputed to be the first individual of color to graduate from an American college.

FOOTBALL; Jets Try to Understand: Bills Are More Complex
By FRANK LITSKY,
Published: November 3, 1994
HEMPSTEAD, L.I., Nov. 2— If you believe in short-term history, the Jets (4-4) should destroy the Buffalo Bills (5-3) Sunday at Giants Stadium. After all, the Jets have already embarrassed the Bills, 23-3, in the season opener.
If you believe in long-term history, the Bills should destroy the Jets. After all, the Bills have reached the Super Bowls the last 4 years, they have won 12 of their last 14 games at Giants Stadium and the last 8 straight (including 1 against the Giants).
The rival coaches -- Pete Carroll of the Jets and Marv Levy of the Bills -- discounted both theories today. They seemed more concerned with the immediate situation -- for example, the Bills' new offense.
The Bills still have their key skill players -- Jim Kelly at quarterback, Thurman Thomas at running back and Andre Reed at wide receiver. But their customary look -- three wide receivers and no huddle -- has become rarer this season. And Reed is no longer locked into one position.
"We realized that three wide receivers and no huddle as a full-time diet isn't as effective," Levy said in a telephone conference call. "Teams were gaining familiarity with it and have time to plan for it in the off season. So we have begun to run from other formations and other personnel combinations in the hope of making things more complex for an opponent.
"The pure three-wide-receiver, no-huddle offense was a little bit like many other offenses that have come along, whether it's the split T 40 years ago or the wing T or the wishbone or the run-and-shoot. You can really move the ball until people catch on. Then you have to expand on it. That's what we've done."
Carroll said that in recent years, the Bills had broken away from their standard offense for a series or two, but never this much.
"For years," said the Jets' coach, "they always used three receivers. On Sunday, they used three maybe 12 times."
Mo Lewis, the Jets' outside linebacker, and Jeff Lageman, the defensive end, said the Bills had sound reasons for the change. "They're using the fullback a lot now," Lewis said. "I guess they're trying to take some pressure off the running game."
Lageman said the Bills just seemed to be making the most of their personnel. "They've lost their two offensive tackles in two years to free agency and they lost James Lofton to age," he said. "So they've got to go to their strength, and they've got a good fullback in Carwell Gardner."
Whatever the Bills did Sunday with their new-style offense, it worked. They crushed Joe Montana and the Kansas City Chiefs, 44-10. Meanwhile, the Jets lost to the Indianapolis Colts, 28-25.
One of the Bills' standouts against the Chiefs was Reed, the moody receiver. He caught 5 passes for 106 yards and 2 touchdowns. More significant, he was no longer a pure slot receiver. At various times, he played slotback, split end and flanker. He helped a Bills' passing game that saw Kelly complete 14 of 22 for 184 yards passing and 4 touchdowns.
The Jets have problems of their own. Their three tailbacks are injured -- the starter Johnny Johnson with a strained hamstring, Adrian Murrell with a sprained knee and Anthony Johnson with a slightly separated shoulder. Murrell is out for Sunday and both Johnsons are questionable.
In today's practice, Brad Baxter and Richie Anderson, both fullbacks, were the running backs. Johnny Johnson took part only in walkthroughs, but may be ready for Thursday's practice.
"I just have to see day to day how I'm progressing," Johnny Johnson said.
The Jets' other problem area is at linebacker, where four players were on the injury report. All were listed as probable -- Lewis (knee), Kyle Clifton (knee), Marvin Jones (ankle) and Bobby Houston (lower back). Lewis and Houston did not practice today. Houston said he could have, but the trainers advised him not to.
Houston's approach to playing the Bills was typical of the Jets. "They've done it," he said. "They've been there. At the same time, they're not running around with S's on their chest. They've got numbers, just like we do." EXTRA POINTS
Tight end FRED BAXTER (ankle) and offensive tackle SIUPELI MALAMALA (knee) are out for Sunday. . . . The Bills said wide receiver BUCKY BROOKS (knee) would not play. . . . Meadowlands officials have appealed to ticket holders for Sunday's game to use carpools or New Jersey Transit buses. There will be 2,000 fewer parking spaces because of tents put up at the sports complex for the National Horse Show, which will end Sunday at Byrne Meadowlands Arena.
