Fair or Not Fair As once said by Nelson Mandela “A good leader can engage in a debate frankly and thoroughly‚ knowing that at the end he and the other side must be closer‚ and thus emerge stronger.

Two Personal Foul Rule- Cool or Drool 25 minutes into the game. The opposing team is on the two yard line.

He reaches across the line to plow through the offensive linemen. His hand slips and touches the player’s facemask. Now instead of being fourth down‚ it is an automatic first down plus the player is ejected. Why? Because

“Is it Fair” Introduction Cohen (1986) argues that corruption has been described as “acting on opportunities‚ created by virtue of one’s authority‚ for personal gain at the expense of the public one is authorized to serve.” Cohen felt that it can be dangerous that the officers accept these gratuities because what might start without intent on the part of the officer may be become a patterned expectation and can lead to targeting and misuse of power if the gratuity stops.

Having recently stumbled across another reader’s letter to in last month’s edition‚ I am writing to inform you of my severe disagreement with the sentiment that songs with foul language have a negative influence on society. Whilst I remain entirely in accordance with the idea that we are all entitled to our own opinions‚ I wish to distance myself completely from the notion that these songs are the cause of many of today’s social problems. Not too long ago I found myself a little stranded and

Collin Kennedy The Foul Reign of Self-Reliance My first exposure to the high-flown pap of Benjamin Anastas’s “The Foul Reign of Self-Reliance” came in a quiet library at the private institution where I had enrolled to learn the secrets of education and because I wanted‚ at the age of 21‚ to fulfill my philosophy core and graduate on time. Cute openings aside‚ Mr. Anastas has a significant amount of gall calling his private school teacher Mr. Sideways when it seems‚ to me‚ that he is the one with

The score was 28-26 as one of Gaston’s best shooters approached the line‚ she was set to take two foul shots. She was a stoutly young girl‚ who had the slight resemblance of a boy. It was a wonder she was one of their best free-throw shooters when her shot form looked like a cross between a flying squirrel taking flight‚ and a swimmer swimming. The away team’s bench sounded off a mighty cheer for the girl‚ then the ref tossed her the ball and all fell silent‚ so silent that you could hear the girl’s
