Download or read book So You Think You Know Me written by Allan Weaver and published by Waterside Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the autobiography of an ex-offender and two-time prison inmate who is now a social work team-leader in his native Scotland. Author Allan Weaver took no prisoners in his youth. Neither does he in this compelling work in which he describes an early life of increasingly violent episodes, in which teachers, social workers, and others never sought to get to know him or what his offending was about. Hence, a never-ending escalation of his violent activities, creating tensions for his family, friends, and often dubious associates in the seaside town where he grew up. So You Think You Know Me? is infused with contradictions in which the Allan Weaver who commits sometimes unspeakable acts of mayhem and aggression is not the Allan Weaver telling the story from inside his own head: an often vulnerable, sensitive, articulate and (if somewhat crazily) balanced individual to whom his own actions never seem to make any sense beyond a misguided insistence on living up to his tough guy image an

Download or read book Frank Pranks written by Steve Collins and published by ECW Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Irreverent but never irrelevant, Canada's satirical news magazine FRANK is on prominent display in this hilarious volume of "FRANK Pranks," during which FRANK operatives concoct a wildly implausible cover story, dial up their hapless victims, and set out to prove just how gullible certain Canadians really are. The results range from the deliciously predictable—Canadian Alliance stalwarts are apoplectic when told that Ottawa is secretly donating Zambonis to the fictitious African country of Chapati—to the surprisingly educational—FRANK canvasses the cronies and former cabinet ministers of deposed Prime Minister Brian Mulroney for an "Airbus" defense fund, and the total pledged is fifty dollars. Here at last are the unexpurgated, full-length renderings of some of FRANK's most audacious, revealing, and heartless phone pranks, featuring such notables as Pierre Berton, Her Excellency Adrienne Clarkson, Sheila Copps, Allan Fotheringham, Michael Moriarty, Farley Mowat, Rita McNeil, Lloyd Robertson, William Thorsell, Ken Whyte, Elwy Yost, and most of the membership of the Reform Party/Canadian Alliance.

Download or read book Legacy Sustainability and CSR at Mega Sport Events written by Pierre Lienhard and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-07-05 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The UEFA European Football Championship 2008TM (EURO 2008) was the largest sports event ever organized in Switzerland. The host nations Austria and Switzerland emphasized the sustainability of the event. Through their analysis the authors argue that well-known principles of sustainability and policy were not uniformly implemented for the EURO 2008. Nonetheless, this book shows how, in Switzerland, a legacy was created through the implementation of corporate governance and social responsibility policies by UEFA, the Swiss Government and the Swiss Football Association. This book offers an unprecedented resource for sports practitioners and researchers. It provides a wealth of data based on the study of existing scholarly literature, key strategic and conceptual documents as well as exclusive interviews with high-level executives involved in the organization of EURO 2008.
