After decades of under-the-radar success, the Boise State Broncos became a household name during the 2006-07 NCAA football season. That was when the 12–0 Broncos were set to face the 11–2 Oklahoma Sooners in the Fiesta Bowl. A David vs. Goliath event, everyone expected the Sooners, who played in the highly competitive Big 12 conference and had dominated since coach Bob Stoops took over in 1999, to beat the no-names from the Western Athletic Conference. The match-up would end up becoming one of the greatest college football games ever played, with Boise State beating Oklahoma, 43–42, on a trick-play two-point conversion to win in overtime. But where did it all start? How did a school in Idaho become one of the most successful and polarizing schools in the country? In Boise State, writer Joel Gunderson tells the story of how the school went from a junior college to Division I, climbing the ranks and building a program that has since beaten such college football powerhouses as Oregon, Georgia, Virginia Tech, and Oklahoma, and has the highest winning percentage in the country since 2000. With in-depth interviews with current and former players, coaches, and administration, Gunderson offers an entertaining story of the growth of a program that rose from anonymity to becoming arguably the most successful underdog in the country. While the city of Boise in Idaho has a population of approximately 223,000 people, the state, in general, is not a sports powerhouse. The closest NFL team is the Seattle Seahawks, who are a 7.5-hour drive away. There are currently only six players in the NFL that were born in Idaho. So how did Boise State, known mostly for its blue turf, become known for football excellence? This is more than a Cinderella story. It’s about how they arrived, how they conquered, and how they’ve maintained in the cut-throat business that is college football.

The first real exposé of how universities have trademarked, copyrighted, branded, and patented everything they do. Universities generate an enormous amount of intellectual property, including copyrights, trademarks, patents, Internet domain names, and even trade secrets. Until recently, universities often ceded ownership of this property to the faculty member or student who created or discovered it in the course of their research. Increasingly, though, universities have become protective of this property, claiming it for their own use and licensing it as a revenue source instead of allowing it to remain in the public sphere. Many universities now behave like private corporations, suing to protect trademarked sports logos, patents, and name brands. Yet how can private rights accumulation and enforcement further the public interest in higher education? What is to be gained and lost as institutions become more guarded and contentious in their orientation toward intellectual property? In this pioneering book, law professor Jacob H. Rooksby uses a mixture of qualitative, quantitative, and legal research methods to grapple with those central questions, exposing and critiquing the industry’s unquestioned and growing embrace of intellectual property from the perspective of research in law, higher education, and the social sciences. While knowledge creation and dissemination have a long history in higher education, using intellectual property as a vehicle for rights staking and enforcement is a relatively new and, as Rooksby argues, dangerous phenomenon for the sector. The Branding of the American Mind points to higher education’s love affair with intellectual property itself, in all its dimensions, including newer forms that are less tied to scholarly output. The result is an unwelcome assault on the public’s interest in higher education. Presuming no background knowledge of intellectual property, and ending with a call to action, The Branding of the American Mind explores applicable laws, legal regimes, and precedent in plain English, making the book appealing to anyone concerned for the future of higher education.

The power of the mind to influence the physical world has long been debated, debunked, studied for military applications, and used in science fiction. This historical and theoretical study of mind-matter interaction, or MMI, explores the phenomena of levitation, stigmata, inedia, paranormal activity, bilocation, fire immunity, luminosity, and the teleportation of matter. The results of more than a century of formal experimental research are discussed, as are resultant training techniques, theories, and controlled experiments used to test or bolster psychokinetic abilities.

For most of its existence, the National Basketball Association was a league filled with (almost) all American-born players. Players from overseas were looked at as less-skilled and not worth the risk. Americans playing overseas were looked at as those who couldn’t cut it in the NBA, now playing in, essentially, the minor leagues of basketball. But that’s no longer the case. Today, a full one-third of those in the league were born overseas. Out are the days of foreign-born players from unknown countries sitting at the end of the bench. Now, they’re the face of the franchise. A lottery draft pick. They are carrying the game into the new millennium. So the question remains: what brought about this change? How did the skillsets of players born overseas become comparable to those in the states? In The (Inter) National Basketball Association, author Joel Gunderson explores how the international game has become so integral to the growth of the NBA. It’s not, as former commissioner David Stern described at the 1985 NBA Draft, “America’s Game.” No longer does Team USA expect to steamroll through the Olympics. With stars such as Giannis Antetokounmpo (Greece), Luka Doncic (Slovenia), Joel Embiid (Cameroon), Kristaps Porzingis (Latvia), and many more, the game of basketball has become a universal language. With almost forty different countries represented in the National Basketball Association today, the evolution of the sport has transcended across international waters. Teams no longer shy away from players born abroad, but instead welcome them with open arms. And for those who come over, not knowing the language, unfamiliar with the American lifestyle, they are now arriving with fluency in the most important language: basketball.

Establishing the parameters and goals of the new field of mind, brain, and education science. A groundbreaking work, Mind, Brain, and Education Science explains the new transdisciplinary academic field that has grown out of the intersection of neuroscience, education, and psychology. The trend in “brain-based teaching” has been growing for the past twenty years and has exploded in the past five to become the most authoritative pedagogy for best learning results. Aimed at teachers, teacher trainers and policy makers, and anyone interested in the future of education in America and beyond, Mind, Brain, and Education Science responds to the clamor for help in identifying what information could and should apply in classrooms with confidence, and what information is simply commercial hype. Combining an exhaustive review of the literature, as well as interviews with over twenty thought leaders in the field from six different countries, this book describes the birth and future of this new and groundbreaking discipline. Mind, Brain, and Education Science looks at the foundations, standards, and history of the field, outlining the ways that new information should be judged. Well-established information is elegantly separated from “neuromyths” to help teachers split the wheat from the chaff in classroom planning, instruction and teaching methodology.

I started writing story-telling poetry in 1984 when coming out of a dark place into teaching English at Boise State University in Boise, Idaho. By the late 90's I had completed well over 200 poems, essays, and stories and was reading them at local poetry slams. When I retired from BSU in 99 and moved to Kansas City, MO, my writing slowed down, but I kept the story-poems on my computer with hopes that I might someday get them printed. When my upcoming 80th birthday suggested that my time might be limited, a strong desire to get them into a manageable form has pushed me into several weeks of culling, editing, and formatting. Early on in the process I grouped them - loosely - VERY loosely - into topics and I started to look for paintings and / or photos to preface the units and to fit the themes. The result is the six books (in one) under the notion of "All of These Pieces Have Come Right --- OUT OF MY MIND." The topics in the books - "My Heart," "Dogs and Other Family," Moon Howling," "In Memory Of," "Damn," and "Damn and Double Damn," might be found fitting into one or another booklet, but if that doesn't bother me, it shouldn't bother you. Two or three dozen poems are about death in geberal or specific deaths - of pets, of children, of friends and lovers. Some are about addiction. A few are about love. One or two might be simple moonlight musings. Dreams are the topic of several more. Some (very few) lines in some poems are quite graphic, maybe even vulgar, but definitely profane. I tried to talk myself out of including them here, but I couldn't. The poems range from a few four line statements to several two-page singlespaced pieces. Mostly they are photos of and notes on what is inside the mind I'm out of. I hope you enjoy them. I do.

This is the complete trilogy of Rebecca Jones' story, titles included are: His Campaign, The Summer Lull, and Her Classroom. He's the Man She's Never Forgotten Rebecca Jones and Jon Whitaker were childhood sweethearts — since the day she ran his campaign for president in the sixth grade. He was destined for politics, and Rebecca was going to be there to support his campaign. And then one day, she overheard what he really thought of her, and she fled. Now Rebecca is a professor of political science, and she's caught in a web of politics around freedom of speech, the Idaho legislature and a law banning critical race theory. Not that the legislature actually knows what CRT is, she gripes to her best friends on Friday night. Jon Whitaker is running for the Republican governor nomination. And he's got a problem. A big one. His father and uncle urge him to reunite with the girl he once scorned as bright, but not pretty enough for him. But Rebecca Jones has grown up. She isn't interested in his family's games. And Jon can't blame her. But she still might be just what he needs — even if she's considered the most liberal professor on campus. But what does Rebeca need? She doesn't know, but she's pretty sure it isn't the man who broke her heart and left her with panic attacks at a man's touch. His campaign. Her classroom. How love find a way through all of that to bring an HEA to two people so polar opposite? Maybe with a little help from Rebecca's friends. For her, they'll even pitch in to solve the problems a conservative politician brings to their world. (Anonymously. Dear God, says one. Don't let anyone know I helped you.) This is the complete trilogy for Rebecca Jones and Jon Whitaker, part of a romantic suspense series set in a small college town in Idaho. Four women friends have each other's backs, no matter what life throws at them. In this slow-burn, contemporary western romance series, each woman gets her HEAs, but oh, the convoluted path love can take to get there! (Be prepared for language, triggers, and politics.)
