	Dr. J.C. Powell
		His administration was one of consolidation of gains made during the preceding decades and one in which Eastern matured as a university.
		Pressure points, both internal and external, had to be dealt with in a quiet, effective manner if Eastern was to continue on its progressive course and maintain and build on its stature as a comprehensive regional university.
		J.C. Powell's monuments at Eastern are its student code, its current organizational structure, its systematic approaches to administrative and academic computing, and its framework for strategic planning and budgeting, including the first articulation of institutional goals aimed at mission achievement.

	Asafa Powell at AllExperts
		Powell first came to the attention of the athletics world at the 2003 world championships when he suffered the ignominy of being the 'other' athlete disqualified for a false start in the semi-final where Jon Drummond memorably refused to leave the track having suffered the same fate.
		Powell's world record appeared to be broken on May 12, 2006 by Justin Gatlin's mark of 9.76 seconds.
		Powell then equalled his world record time on June 11 2006 at Gateshead International Stadium (the very precise time was 9.7629, rounded as well to 9.77).

	Jamaican Powell sets 100 record with 9.77 - The Boston Globe
		Powell's effort eclipsed what has been viewed as a tainted mark by Montgomery, who is facing a lifetime ban from the sport after allegedly using steroids and other drugs and who may have results from recent years nullified.
		Though Powell finished only fifth in last summer's Olympics after being favored, he clearly was a man on the move, winning every other 100 he entered last season and ending the year with the world's top ranking ahead of Athens champion Justin Gatlin, whom Powell defeated twice in three meetings.
		Powell's performance marked the seventh time since 1991 that the 100 record has been broken but only the fourth time since 1912 by a non-American and the first time by a man running for Jamaica.

	Powell Sets World Record in 100
		For years, Powell wasn't even the fastest man in his own family, staying on the sideline as his older brother, Donovan Powell, competed in IAAF races in 1999, at one point posting a time in the 60 meters that ranked second in the world.
		Powell had already held the world's leading time of the year; he was clocked in 9.84 seconds in a May 8 race.
		Powell, who watched the 2000 Olympics in Sydney on television, has emerged since 2001 under the tutelage of Jamaican coach Stephen Francis, who recruited Powell for his professional athletics camp in Jamaica after discovering him at the annual school national championships in Kingston.

	Asafa Powell Information
		Asafa Powell (born 11 November 1982) is a Jamaican sprinter, Commonwealth 100 m champion and current joint 100 m world record holder (with Justin Gatlin).
		The following season Powell was one of the gold medal favorites for 2004 Olympic 100 m, after clocking sub-10 second times a record-equalling 9 times in a season.
		Wind assistance for Powell was measured at 1.6 m/s - a gentle breeze - within the IAAF legal limit of 2.0 m/s.

	A visit to Asafa's heartland - JAMAICAOBSERVER.COM
		The Powells were strict parents who did not give their boys much room to stray and who did not spare the rod in cases where it was necessary to keep them in line.
		The Powell family, like many in Jamaica, knows tragedy and suffering, but it is their devout belief in God and a close family bond that has kept them in the race of life.
		Reverend Powell, too, was shot in his jaw some years ago at his home in a robbery attempt, and pointed to the bullet hole that remains on his front door.

		Donovan had inspected a jagged hole in the upper reaches of one of the walls by the light of his pocket flash.
		Powell was on his feet and had attracted the attention of one of the monster robots by the simple expedient of pounding the machine's thigh.
		Donovan felt his robot stagger at a sudden push by Powell's mount and then Powell was off into the sunlight.

		Donovan had time for one startled gasp as he felt himself lifted from the floor and carried up the stairs at a pace rather better than a canter.
		Donovan continued, "And think of that screwball's face when he sees us do it!" The interplanetary law forbidding the existence of intelligent robots upon the inhabited planets, while sociologically necessary, places upon the offices of the solar stations a burden-and not a light one.
		Powell and Donovan were never so aware of that fact as upon that particular day when, in the assembly room, they undertook to create a robot under the watchful eyes of QT-1, Prophet of the Master, The robot in question, a simple MC model, lay upon the table, almost complete.

	Powell powers to 9.77sec - Sport - theage.com.au
		By the enormous standards Powell had set, in being unbeaten for almost a year before the Olympic final, he failed to perform at the Games and finished fifth in the final.
		At face value, Powell is a clean athlete, so just as when Maurice Greene finally equalled Ben Johnson's (subsequently disallowed) world record from the Seoul Olympic Games, the title of world's fastest man again resides with an athlete free from drug taints.
		To ensure Powell comes to Melbourne, it might be necessary to put together a deal involving meetings and appearances either side of the Games, where, like everybody else, he will run for nothing.

	Powell dedicates gold to late siblings - JAMAICAOBSERVER.COM (Site not responding. Last check: )
		His brothers both died as Powell launched his track career and before he became famous by timing 9.77 seconds to take the world record in Athens last year.
		His brother Donovan, Asafa's idol who ran the 200 metres at the Olympics in Sydney, said his mild-mannered sibling was still dealing with the deaths.
		The highly religious Powell initially fancied himself as a footballer, but running has become his forte and he has become a role model in his homeland.

		That last part was pretty confusing for Powell, who was a big-time scorer at Mitchell High School in Memphis, Tenn. He averaged 18.6 points per game as a senior and left the school as its all-time 3-point leader.
		Powell wasn't surprised at his lack of playing time, but it's only in the last few weeks that he has finally started to feel comfortable, thanks to an emotional refueling over a short Christmas break.
		Powell is acquiescing to Brewer, Al Horford, Taurean Green, Lee Humphrey and Joakim Noah.

	Runaround Information
		In 2015, Powell and Donovan and Robot SPD-13 (aka Speedy) are sent to restart operations at a mining station on Mercury that was abandoned ten years before.
		Powell tells Donovan that because Speedy was so expensive to manufacture, that "[i]t’s not a thing to be lightly destroyed … [and therefore] Rule 3 has been strengthened...
		Therefore, Powell decides to risk his life by going out in the heat and hopefully Rule 1 will force Speedy to save him and put an end to the drunken state he’s in.

	Star Wars \| I, Robot by Isaac Asimov
		Donovan and Powell are sent to an asteroid to test a mining robot, DV-5 (Dave), that controls six subrobots.
		Donovan and Powell interview a subrobot, but that is like asking a “finger” why the hand does what it does.
		Powell figured out that the six subrobots needed more command attention during an emergency, which put too much stress on “a special co-ordinating circuit.” With fewer robots to attend to, Dave was able to handle emergencies.

	Salon Books \| How Dawn Powell can save your life (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Dawn Powell's literary career was one long quest for some modest measure of commercial success and critical understanding -- neither of which arrived in her lifetime.
		Like O'Connor, Powell knew her worth without a scintilla of either arrogance or false modesty; she suffered fools not at all and dealt with ill health and adversity with no self-pity whatsoever.
		If the Dawn Powell revival continues, especially among younger readers and writers, it augurs well for the urban comedies of the future, which will be smart and stylish and penetrating, addressed to an audience schooled in the complexities of true wit.

		Powell is a master at broadening emotional context with her scathing, loving wit.

		In 1967 this short story was adapted into an episode of British television series Out of the Unknown entitled "The Prophet".
