The Green Bay Packers of the '60s
Feb. 05, 2015
http://www.amazon.com/Green-Love-Stories-Other-Affairs/dp/1418434159 It is doubtful if another woman has so openly and boldly shared with us her personal and private experiences with a professional football team. In fact, few women have had the opportunity or ability to fit in with the "guys" and create friendships which have endured for a lifetime. Love, laughter, and tears mix in this riveting and slightly risqué love story, and the home-spun philosophy causes one to pause and consider the validity of the remarks. Both women and men find themselves captured by the frank and endearing stories of individuals who are household names to Green Bay Fans, and they enjoy tidbits of pro-football history, as well as interesting and relatively unknown facts interwoven throughout the text. It is a love affair, encompassing comedy and tragedy, which started and will end with a lifelong passion to be part of what goes on in Lambeau Field. Where does a woman fit into this picture? Modeled and tested by the Champions of Green Bay, this author expresses deep and honest feelings about the lessons learned from relationships with players which shaped and directed her life, and tells us what it was like for her. to run with the "PACK."

The Circle of Discipline
Apr. 02, 2015
The Circle of Discipline's mission is to provide youth and young adults with alternative programs and enrichment activities that address their physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual needs - 360 degrees of balance, which empowers them to reach their full potential and become positive leaders in their communities, cities, state, and in a global society. Circle of Discipline Inc. was founded in 1993 by Mr. Sankara Frazier. Born and raised in south Minneapolis, Sankara witnessed the deterioration of Minneapolis communities and families and began volunteering as an amateur boxing coach in metro area gyms in an effort to give back to the community. Realizing that coaching was simply not enough to truly help the young adults living in poverty-stricken communities plagued with violence, crime, substance abuse, prostitution, and much, much more, he formed the Circle of Discipline. |
