Time to (Re)Discover Hebrews
Of all the New Testament letters, Hebrews seems to be one many Christians find strange and alien. Here we enter the world of Melchizedek and Aaron, angels and Moses, sacrifices and priests. It all seems so Old Testament, so intricate, …Read More
To Be Deep in History
The nineteenth century witnessed the conversions of two prominent Anglican clergymen to Roman Catholicism. Both men would ultimately become cardinals in the Roman Church, and both men would profoundly influence Roman Catholic theology. The first was John Henry Newman (1801–1890). …Read More

Celebrity Chekhov: Stories by Anton Chekhov
Celebrity Chekhov: Stories by Anton Chekhov (Paperback)
Related Editions
Q: What do Tiger, Paris, Lindsay, Alec, and Oprah have in common with the enduring characters of Anton Chekhov?
A: Love, loss, pride, yearning, heartbreak, renewal, transcendence: the very stuff of life.
The immortal stories of Anton Chekhov have long entranced readers with their insights into the universal truths of human behavior . . . but you've never read them quite like this.
- Former friends Nicole and Paris exchange prickly pleasantries in "Tall and Short."
- Talk-show host Dave narrowly averts another potential domestic crisis in "A Transgression."
- Reality star Kim shares her newfound notoriety with Khloe and Kourtney in "Joy."
In a witty, graceful, and revelatory feat of literary reinvention, acclaimed novelist and humorist Ben Greenman takes nineteen of Chekhov's greatest stories and recasts them with some of the best-known luminaries of our timewith eye-opening, and oddly ennobling, results.
About the Author
Ben Greenman is an editor at The New Yorker and author of What He's Poised to Do, Please Step Back, Superbad, Superworse, and A Circle Is a Balloon and Compass Both. His writing has appeared in the New York Times, the Washington Post, McSweeney's, The Paris Review, Zoetrope: All-Story, Opium, and elsewhere. He lives in Brooklyn with his wife and two children.
Praise for Celebrity Chekhov: Stories by Anton Chekhov…
"A high-concept experiment in surreal comedy, that's also an act of devotion regarding the persistent power of literature."
-L Magazine
"Nothing short of brilliant. . . . you can plant it proudly on your bookshelf."
-Daily Candy
"Ben Greenman's Celebrity Chekhov might be the first literary mashup that actually adds to our understanding of the original work."
-The Very Short List

Former Cheetahs forwards Barend Pieterse and Dougie Heymans will help with Grey College's lineouts and scrums respectively this season.
In other Grey news, Dries van der Waal has stepped down as Grey's 1st XV coach after 25 years in charge of undoubtedly the most successful rugby institution in the country and been replaced by Roelf Meyer and Ingo Machts.
Eleven players from Grey's match 22 of last year are still around, so there will be some continuity.
Grey's toughest game of 2009 will probably be their annual match against rivals Grey PE, who pushed them all the way in last year's meeting.

I found this fragance in South America sometime around 2008 and have been purchasing it there every trip... but I don't travel so much so plan on purchasing it here using this website... price is slightly higher but probably due to the dollar exchange rate....
Written by Sassy de Rosario on July 07, 2012Read Review details ►
I started wearing this summer 2010. I fell in love with it when I was in las vegas. It's a clean smell with lemon tones, but not heavy. I actually smell it better now that it's winter. It may seem more of a spring summer fragrance but it really pops now that it cold. I believe it's best to wear the lotion along with the perfume.

This is a very elegant fragrance, subtle and refined. I bought it 2-3 months ago and used almost everyday ever since at work, on weekends. I love it and I highly recommend it!

The ASPCA is on the ground today in cities across the country to celebrate with the winners of the 2012 ASPCA Rachael Ray $100K Challenge and deliver some mighty big checks.
The $100K Challenge is our annual, three-month-long shelter contest to come up with new ways to get more homeless cats and dogs into loving homes. And get them into homes they did! In total, this year's 50 contestants saved a whopping 56,232 animals' lives.
But who took home the grand prize of 100,000 big ones? Well, people, Texas did it again. The grand prize winner of the 2012 $100K Challenge is the City of San Antonio Animal Care Services! The Central Texas shelter saved more than 4,054 animals in three months—that's 1,384 more animals than it saved during the same three-month period in 2011. Amazing work—congratulations, San Antonio!
For a full list of winners, including second place and the Community Engagement Award recipient, please visit the $100K Challenge blog.
Want to help save more animals in your community? Encourage your local shelter to apply for the 2013 Challenge! Applications open on January 3, 2013. Stay tuned to ASPCA.org for details.
The $100K Challenge is just one of many programs through which the ASPCA advocates for animals in need across the country. Help us continue to improve the lives of homeless pets.
I happen to be a foster for ACS San Antonio pets alive. It is a dept of ACS that pulls animals from the kill list and gets them into fosters or adopted out. The adoption process involves many pages and questions and my most recent adopter had to place nearly 200 down because this kitten wasn't neutered yet. Just this program alone I've seen them foster/adopt nearly 40 animals in one day. There are some of us trying to fix the kill rate instead of just talking and complaining about how bad it is. With more volunteers and fosters and donations we CAN save so many more. Be a part if the answer to this horrible situation.
Congrats to the winners for doing an awsome job! Each animal placed in a forever home is another precious life saved. I adopted my cat Molly from a nearby shelter and wouldnt trade her for anything!!
It is wonderful to help dogs and cats find homes. My wish is that all these people with big hearts will not forget the farm animals that suffered horribly when you make your choice of what to eat. A pig, for example, is no different than a dog in feeling pain, fear, and loneliness. They just get forgotten because it is hidden from the public.
HOW did San Antonio do it? What programs did they come up with that they/you could share with others?? Maybe you could post so we could learn..or is it posted somewhere HOW they did it?
Congratulations San Antonio Animal Care Services. Now I understand why Liza Kalmykov, my daughter spent so many nights working late and weekends at the shelter with events and activities. Good Job Everyone. I remember how it was a couple of years ago it was very sad. But look at the progress good leadership and a united staff and community can do. Hip, Hip Hooray.....!!!
Congrats on your win! So many happy animals saved and hopefully are in loving and safe homes. Let's keep the momentum going.
As a foster for ACS I can tell you the process to adopt is extensive. ACS employees and foster try to match the correct animal for a family. During this challenge I had 6 fosters dogs adopted out all have contacted me and gave me apppreciation for saving their new best friend and family member. Some have even contacted friends who want to adopt to help find their new friend. Fostering is a very rewarding and worthwile effort that I will continue to do. Congrats to ACS and all winners this year.
It is truly amazing that in just 3 months all participating shelters saved 56,232 animals lives. This proves that when communities come together that anything is possible. I also want to congratulate my own state of Oregon for participating. Way to go Greenhill Humane Society of Eugene, OR. As for the concern that with rapid adoptions leaves less room for thorough screening. I can tell you from a person that has worked closely with my local animal shelters it is possible to have high numbers of animals being placed in loving homes without neglecting the screening process. It takes a whole lot people to do so but it is possible. I think that the last person to thank is Rachael Ray! She has done so much for animals since she started her talk show. I loved her even more when she came out as an advocate for Pit Bulls. I have always admired celebrities that used their fame as a platform for a good cause.

Returning wrestling champs are marked men at state
Four local guys return to Mat Classic with a target on their backs
As a tiny freshman, Noah Cuzzetto was one of the smallest wrestlers at Mat Classic in 2011. In 2012, he was a shade bigger, but carried himself a bit more confidently coming in as the No. 1 ranked 4A lightweight in the state.
This year he stepped up a weight class as well as his physique is bigger and now carries the weight of expectations. Not only did Cuzzetto win the 106-pound crown as a sophomore, but as a junior he plowed through in-state regular season competition. This season he lost only a single bout to an out-of-state competitor by two points.
"I'm not a little pudgy kid any more," Cuzzetto said. He has his sights set on another gold medal this week. "Definitely going in to get the second title," Cuzzetto said. "I'm confident that I could win. Not overly confident because I know that anybody could beat me."
That anybody could include Yelm's Darren Harris. The sophomore, who won a 3A state title last year, faced Cuzzetto for the first time in regionals and nearly pinned Cuzzetto in the third period on the way to a 6-5 loss. Expect both to advance for another showdown in Tacoma.
Now wrestling at 145-pounds, Lopez won the 132-pound championship a year ago. Lopez is wrestling up because he wanted a shot at Enumclaw's Lucas Somera, who is a two-time defending state champ. But Somera suffered a concussion at districts and won't wrestle at Mat Classic, making Lopez the favorite in his weight class.
Glacier Peak
At last year's Mat Classic, Elledge scored an 8-0 major decision over top-ranked Phil Frazier of Mercer Island at 182 pounds to win the title. This year, the Grizzlies senior goes in as the favorite in the same weight class after having little problem at districts or regionals.
Lake Stevens
Then a junior, Soler overcame ACL reconstruction to defeat two previously undefeated wrestlers -- both of which were state champions in 2010 -- in the semifinals and finals of the 126-pound weightclass to take the state championship. This year Soler is the No. 1 ranked wrestler in the 145-pound division going into Mat Classic.

Sweet and Spicy Grilled Lamb Chops with Radicchio Slaw
This is a perfect early spring dish. Hopefully your weather allows you to get outside and light up the grill. Radicchio is a tad too bitter to eat on it's own, at least for my liking. I thinly sliced and soaked it in ice water to get rid of some of the bitterness, then added a mild cabbage. With the lime and honey it had just the right amount of bitterness to complement the sweet and spicy lamb chops. I marinated the lamb overnight, but if you're pressed for time marinade it for at least an hour, it gets better the longer it sits in the marinade. Assemble the slaw before you cook the lamb. Pre heat the grill to high, and grill for about 10 minutes turning once or twice. Lower one section of the grill to low and cook the lamb indirectly for another 5 minutes or until it's cooked to your liking, then transfer it back to high, and brush with the reserved marinade while turning on all sides allowing the sugars to caramelize. I know this is a lot to ask given the smell and crispy goodness, let the lamb rest for at least 5 minutes before cutting in to it (yes, even just a little piece). Trust me, it'll be well worth it!
I'm crazy for Japanese noodles. Any flavor, shape, size, or form – stir fried, in soups, hot, cold, sweet, spicy or tangy – I could eat them everyday, definitely my happy food. If you were to sit down with me to eat a bowl of noodles, I would probably embarrass you. Because of this, only my dearest, non judging, mutual noodle crazed friends join me to eat in public (yes, I'm talking about you V.V. & M.I.). We sit down, giddy with anticipation, roll up our sleeves, load up on napkins, and go at it. Aren't friends like this the best! This Cha Soba (Green Tea Soba) with wild mushrooms is a tasty little dish I've been making for several years now. It comes together in a snap and is really good served at room temperature, so its perfect party fare. Overcooked noodles make me sad, so it's important to cook the noodles first and shock them in cold water. Sauté the mushrooms and quickly combine everything in the hot pan, then into the serving dish. You can eat it on it's own or serve it with grilled meats.
Shrimp Stuffed Broccoli Rabe
I ran across this on a Chinese takeout menu a while back and instantly thought…how the heck do you stuff a piece of broccoli? Of course I ordered it; couldn't imagine what it would be like. It was shaped like dim sum (oooh, another thing I can't seem to get enough of, focus), but tasted like a stir fry in bite size pieces. This restaurant served it with a simple teriyaki sauce. I immediately knew that I wanted to re-create it. My version has broccoli rabe, shrimp speckled with bits of lemon zest, cilantro and scallions. I made a super flavorful, lightweight Hoisin BBQ sauce to go with it. Definitely a keeper.

GRAHAM — Federal officials have notified
The Department of Justice's Office of Community Oriented Policing Services is withholding grant funding that
COPS Lead Grant Monitoring Specialist George Gibmeyer sent a letter Oct. 31 to
"The COPS Office Grant Monitoring Division has found the Alamance County Sheriff's Office in noncompliance with the terms and conditions of its COPS Technology Program Grant."
Gibmeyer stated that the Sheriff's Office failed to comply with the grant's requirements based on the findings by the DOJ Civil Rights Division issued on Sept. 18, which alleged the Sheriff's Office is in violation of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
Justice Department Assistant Attorney General Thomas Perez said in a Sept. 18 memorandum statement that reasonable cause exists to "believe that ACSO engages in a pattern or practice of discriminatory policing against Latinos in violation of the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, the Fourth Amendment, the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act and Title VI."
Johnson has denied any wrongdoing on the part of his department. The DOJ has asked ACSO to commit to long term structural, cultural, and institutional change and will seek to obtain a court enforceable written agreement remedying the alleged violations and incorporating reforms with ACSO officials. DOJ gave the ACSO until Sept. 30 to respond whether it would work cooperatively to develop and implement sustainable reform measures.
An attorney representing Johnson has said that the sheriff does not believe a negotiated settlement with the Justice Department is necessary or advisable.
In his letter, Gibmeyer stated "failure to remedy this violation could result in further enforcement action, including the termination of the grant award."
"If your agency wishes to appeal this noncompliance determination, you may submit the appeal request to the Office of the General Counsel," Gibmeyer said.
The county has until Nov. 30 to file its appeal, according to Gibmeyer. Honeycutt sent a response letter on Nov. 2 to Gibmeyer.

The COPS Technology Program Grant was for $500,000, according to Assistant County Manager Bryan Hagood. The remaining balance on the grant is $149,286.

"By cutting off funding prior to providing an opportunity for any type of hearing, in violation of statute, regulation, and Executive Order or any remediation of the issues between the parties, you are threatening public safety," Honeycutt stated. "The interoperability of Alamance County's 911 system, which includes multiple municipal law enforcement agencies, EMS, Fire Protection and state and federal law enforcement officers, has been dependent upon this grant funding, and will be significantly impaired by your unilateral decision to withhold funding in the middle of an approved grant project to install the new 800 Megahertz Communication System in Alamance County."
"This sudden decision made by you without notice or hearing has the direct effect of endangering the lives and safety of the citizens of
"You indicate that you have based your determination that the Sheriff's Office failed to comply with the assurances of the COPS Technology Program solely upon the finding set forth in the letter from Thomas Perez dated September 18, 2012," Honeycutt said. "This finding is a mere allegation, and not the result of any due process hearing."
Honeycutt said the county will appeal the decision. The appeal request will seek a hearing and also request that the county be compensated for damages suffered.

Legendary weapons are interesting items in WoW. Right now, there are three expectations for a legendary weapon:
- They will be rare. Not every character who can use a legendary will get one.
- They will be very powerful. A legendary is not expected to be replaced until the next expansion, while most weapons are expected to be replaced in the next tier.
- They will have a significant quest or lore attached to them.

The first Hayes-Orange boys soccer match of 2011 was for the league standings. Saturday's match was to keep their seasons alive, and both fought like the devil to keep their 2011 campaigns going.
Both the Pacers and Pioneers battled through two halves without denting the net, but Orange's Alec Binger scored off a pass from Jake Anderson just over four minutes into the second overtime, and the Pioneers advanced to district play with a 1-0 victory over Hayes Saturday night at Pioneer Field.
"We told them, from the end of regulation on, 'Who's going to step up and make a play,'" Orange coach Scott Bryant said. "Luckily, we had Alec get a great ball in from Jake, and he finished it, but it was a battle. Delaware was tough to break down, tough to get around, and we were happy to finally get one in."
"I'm very proud of how the boys played tonight for the season we've had," Hayes coach Nate Weakland said. "It's been a little up and down and we've had trouble with Orange in the past, but the boys played extremely well, and you can't ask for much more than that."
There was plenty of action in the opening half, but no goals. Both teams had five shots each, but only four shots combined made the goal area, three by Orange (8-5-4) and one by Hayes (6-11-1).
"That's been kind of our thing all year, not only creating chances but finishing them," Bryant said. "They way they play their defense, with such a high line, we were offside quite a bit trying to push the line."
Defense was the name of the game throughout the match.
"Our defense and our goalkeepers do a pretty solid job making sure they don't get anything easy," Bryant said. "When we slipped and lost our marks, they got some good chances, but we have (junior) Zach (Arefi) and (sophomore keeper) Jared (Rieger) back there to clean it up."
"I thought we played very well defensively," Weakland said. "Noah and Luke did a great job back there and our outside back held their own, and both our keepers, (junior) Andrew (Ward) and (junior) Tommy (Gibbs) did a great job tonight."
Both teams picked up the attacks in the second half, with Orange earning the first solid chances, including two on a pair of corner kicks from Anderson to senior Brad Haney, who headed both toward goal only to see one go wide and the other high.
Hayes pressured on the Orange side and got chances later, including a takeaway and shot by senior Jordan Carlson that went just wide, and a Spahr shot that Orange senior defender Jake Gabbert made a sliding save on to keep the game scoreless.
"Our midfield started to run things for us, which is good for us, and our backs started to push into the play," Weakland said. "Those are the things we've been talking about all year, and fortunately, they brought it for us in the tournament. It was nice to finally see it come together."
The Pioneers got off the only two shots on goal of the first overtime session, both of which were easily saved by Gibbs, and Hayes was first to attack in the second overtime, but another Spahr attempt went wide.
Less than two minutes later, Orange ended the nearly 100-minute match, when Anderson dropped a ball onto the right side, where Binger ran the ball down, drove into the 18 and sent his shot by Gibbs into the lower left corner.
"We've been trying to get our forwards out wide and get balls in at angles where they can cut in and go to the goal, and finally one worked," Bryant said. "We were able to get it in and not be offside. It was a great ball and a great finish."
Orange held a slight 15-14 edge in total shots, but an 11-4 advantage in shots on goal. Orange also had six corner kicks to Hayes' three.
Arefi, who started the first half, and Rieger, who played the second half and overtime periods, combined for the shutout win, Rieger making three saves and Arefi one.
Ward and Gibbs both played solid games for Hayes, and both finished with five saves.

COLVILLE, Wash. -- Court documents released Wednesday give disturbing details about how and why two fifth grade boys planned to kill a girl classmate.
The boys were arrested at Fort Colville Elementary School on Feb. 7 after a fourth grader came forward and told a school employee of the plan.
The Colville superintendent said the case started on the bus ride to school when the fourth grader saw one of the boys playing with a knife.
When the bus arrived at school, the boy approached school employee Richard Payette.
Court document state Payette approached the 11-year-old boy and asked if he had a knife. The boy denied any knowledge of a knife, so Payette searched his backpack. There was no weapon inside.
Another teacher suggested the 10-year-old s backpack also be searched, since he was standing with the 11-year-old.
Payette searched the second boy s backpack and recovered a 3.25 inch knife, an ammunition clip, and a .45 caliber semi-automatic pistol.
School staff separated the boys and called the Colville Police Department.
A staff member named Debbie Rogers asked the 10-year-old why he brought a gun to school. The boy told her he and the 11-year-old were going to get a girl identified in court documents by her initials.
Rogers asked the boy would he meant by get her.
The 10-year-old responded that he and the 11-year-old were going to get [the girl] away from the school and do her in . He said the 11-year-old was going to stab the girl with a knife and the 10-year-old was supposed to keep everyone away, according to court documents.
The 10-year-old indicated he and the 11-year-old had been planning this for awhile, and that another student was aware of their plans.
Rogers then spoke to the 11-year-old. She asked him what the deal was with the knife and gun. He told her he had no idea what she was talking about. Rogers got more specific, asking about the knife, the gun, and the girl. Rogers indicated the 11-year-old became agitated, walked around a little bit, and then asked, Do you really want to know? OK, fine. I ll tell you.
Court documents state the 11-year-old stated he and the 10-year-old were planning to gill the girl because she was really annoying.
When asked what they were planning, the 11-year-old indicated, I was going to kill her with the knife and [the 10-year-old] was supposed to use the gun to keep anyone from trying to stop me or mess up our plan.
Records state the 11-year-old also admitted the girl was not the only one they were going to get . Rogers pulled out a class list and the 11-year-old showed her six more names of students they were going to target.
He told her he and [the 10-year-old] were e going to get them away from the school one at a time starting with [the girl] , according to the documents.
Family members were called to be present during the police interviews.
Police asked the 11-year-old if he knew why he was being questioned. The 11-year-old replied Yes, because we were going to kill [the girl] , records show.
An officer asked the boy to describe his relationship with the girl and the 11-year-old said they had been friends for several months, but that he hated her now. He indicated [the girl] had recently become rude and would pick on him, according to court documents.
Next, the officer interviewed the 10-year-old. Asked if he knew why he was being questioned, the boy replied Because we wanted to kill [the girl], records show. When asked why, the 10-year-old replied She s rude and always made fun of me and my friends.
The 10-year-old said he had been in a short dating relationship with the girl. He admitted bringing the gun and knife to school, which he said he had taken from his older brother s room, according to court documents.
When the officer asked the 10-year-old if it was his intention to murder the girl, he said it was going to go down today, court documents state.
The officer asked the 10-year-old if he knew what he was going to do was dangerous, wrong, and unlawful, and the boy replied Yes, I just wanted her dead, the records show.

MT. PLEASANT, Mich. – The Miami University women's basketball team pulled to within eight early in the second half, but the explosive Central Michigan offense used several three-pointers to pull away for an 88-47 victory Saturday afternoon. The RedHawks fall to 7-16 overall and 3-9 in the Mid-American Conference. The Chippewas improve to 16-8 overall and 12-0 in the MAC.
Central Michigan ranks ninth in the country in three-pointers made per game and it hit 16 against Miami, a season-high for an opponent. The Red and White kept pace early with five 3-pointers of their own, but finished the game shooting 5-for-24 (20.8 percent) from behind the arc.
It was a three-point battle from the start as treys from junior guard Courtney Larson and senior guard Haley Robertson, along with a layup from sophomore guard Jillian Spurlock and a free throw from senior center Kelsey Simon gave Miami a 9-6 lead with 16:40 left in the half. CMU responded with three triples of its own as part of an 11-2 run that gave it a 17-11 lead at the 13:52 mark.
A layup by redshirt freshman forward Tamira Ford, followed by a three-pointer by Haley Robertson put the RedHawks back in front, 19-18, with 11:42 to go. Miami's shot went cold over the next seven minutes as the Chippewas answered with a 14-1 run to take a 32-20 advantage at the 4:02 mark. A pair of layups by Simon sent the game into the break with CMU in front, 37-25.
Miami shot 32.1 percent (9-for-28) during the first half, while the Chippewas were 13-for-29 (44.8 percent). Central Michigan hit eight 3-pointers during the period to build its lead.
Freshman forward Nicole Anderson scored seven quick points to start the second half. Her jumper with 18:04 to go cut the CMU lead to only eight at 40-32. Central Michigan's All-America candidate, Crystal Bradford, got hot at that point hitting several jumpers as the Chippewas went on a 29-7 run over the next eight minutes to break the game open. Jumpers by Simon and senior guard Hannah Robertson helped stopped the run, but Miami was not able to get its offense back on track as it fell, 88-47.
Anderson led Miami with nine points, Simon and Haley Robertson each had seven, while Ford, Larson and Hannah Robertson each had six. Hannah Robertson now has 995 career points, only five short of becoming the 22nd player in school history to score 1,000. Niki DiGuilio led Central Michigan with 24 points on eight 3-point baskets, while Bradford finished with 14 points and 15 rebounds. The Chippewas held a 42-33 rebounding advantage over the 'Hawks for the game.
The RedHawks return to action on Thursday when they host Ball State at 1:30 p.m. It is the sixth annual Class at the Court game, and over 1,500 elementary school students from the Talawanda School District will be in attendance. Bill Douglas has the call and it can be seen live on Miami All-Access for those who have a subscription.

Coach Joe Ferebee shares 50 years of baseball memories in a videotaped oral history
September 18, 2013
MISENHEIMER, N.C - On Sept. 11, Atlanta Hawks broadcaster Bob Rathbun visited Pfeiffer University to capture the thoughts and baseball memories of legendary Pfeifer coach Joe Ferebee for a videotaped oral history. Coach Ferebee, affectionately known as "the winningest coach in North Carolina baseball," led Pfeiffer's baseball program from 1958-1986. A member of eight halls of fame for his contributions to youth baseball in the state, Ferebee spent 13 years as a professional baseball scout.
Ferebee, who is 94, shared lifetime of memories with his longtime friend Bob Rathbun, who grew up in Salisbury, N.C., during the 1950s and '60s when Ferebee coached for Salisbury High School and the American Legion baseball system in Rowan County. During the interview, the two reminisced about the ways Rathbun learned about the game of baseball from Ferebee as well as Rathbun's lifelong ambition to become a professional sports broadcaster. Rathbun began his career in 1973 as sports director for WSTP Radio in Salisbury, later becoming the Atlanta Braves play-by-play announcer (1997-2006). Currently, he partners with Dominique Wilkins for television broadcasts of Hawks basketball and calls play-by-play for Southeast Conference (SEC) football games on FSN South and Atlantic Coast Conference football games for Raycom Sports.
"Most people in athletics can only dream about a career like Coach Ferebee's," said Bob Reasso '73, Pfeiffer's athletic director and vice president for athletics. "We're very grateful that a broadcasting pro the caliber of Bob Rathbun is willing and able to lend his expertise to record Coach's oral history, which will be a major component of the Pfeiffer Hall of Fame and university archive."
Also on hand for the event were former Falcons baseball standouts Billy Wynne '66 and Art Small '75. After graduating from Pfeiffer, Wynne pitched in the major leagues for the New York Mets, Chicago White Sox and California Angels. Small turned down major league offers in favor of a career with FBI. While on campus, Small spoke to undergraduates from Professor Patrick Malloy's financial fraud investigations accounting class about career opportunities with the FBI.
Over the course of his career, Ferebee amassed 677 career wins at Pfeiffer and an additional 694 victories with various American Legion teams, and he coached 42 Pfeiffer baseball players to major league contracts. Pfeiffer has named its baseball complex for Coach Ferebee and last spring retired Ferebee's jersey and number 23.
In total, Ferebee led the Falcons to ten conference championships, five NAIA District crowns and guided his squad to a number two ranking in the nation in 1968. He has been elected to eight halls of fame, including the being a member of the Inaugural Class of the Pfeiffer Sports Hall of Fame in 1990. The Mocksville, N.C., native began his coaching career in 1947 at Salisbury High School after serving in the U.S. Navy during World War II. In 1955, he coached Salisbury to the state 3A championship and also led the Salisbury-Rowan American Legion team to a third place finish in the national playoffs the same year.

Rohypnol is a prescription antianxiety medication that is 10 times more powerful than Valium. Because it can cause extreme drowsiness (or "blackouts"), it is often used in date rapes.
This drug is swallowed, sometimes with alcohol or other drugs.
Rohypnol has received a lot of attention because of its association with date rape. Many teen girls and women report having been raped after having rohypnol slipped into their drinks. The drug also causes "anterograde amnesia." This means it's hard to remember what happened while on the drug. Because of this, it can be hard to give important details if a young woman wants to report the rape.
Rohypnol can cause a drop in blood pressure, as well as cause memory loss, drowsiness, dizziness, and an upset stomach. Though it's part of the depressant family of drugs, it causes some people to be overly excited or aggressive.
Users can become physically addicted to rohypnol, so it can cause extreme withdrawal symptoms when users stop.

A pedestrian was hit by a car on South Lafayette Square late Tuesday morning.
According to LaGrange police, Janet Gilbert, 56, had the right of way walking across South Lafayette when Barbara Hembree, 70, turned right onto South Lafayette from Main Street and struck Gilbert. Gilbert was transported to the West Georgia Medical Center.
Officer Chris Vines was on the scene and said he does not expect any life-threatening injuries.
"I think she just got banged up a little bit, luckily," Vines said.
According to Vines, Hembree was at fault, though she thought she had the right of way but did not realize she has to yield to pedestrians in the crosswalk.
Gilbert is the owner of Serendipity and was visiting the new location on the square which opened today.

When in his own half, a flyhalf can put up a high ball, kick for field position or pass the ball wide. Alternatively, as Tuks No 10 Juan-Claude Roos showed in the game against Pukke in this year's Varsity Cup, you can unleash a monstrous drop goal to leave opposition mouths agape and supporters in a frenzy.
'It was a good strike,' he says. 'Lucky, but good. I just did my best to maintain my focus and it paid off.'
At the time of writing, Roos, who only matriculated at the end of 2008, was the top point-scorer in the Varsity Cup, with four conversions, seven penalties and that drop goal.
'Kicking has always been a big part of my game,' he says. 'From a young age it was my focus, and I put in a lot of time and effort to get it to where it is.'
Roos credits Bulls kicking coach Vlok Cilliers – who he has worked with for nearly four years – with the improved strength and accuracy of his boot. Cilliers is quick to return the praise.
'Juan-Claude is a naturally gifted kicking talent; my work with him was less about his technique and more about his approach when he's under pressure, keeping focused and performing in the big games.
'He is definitely someone to look out for in the future. As long as we continue to manage him well, look after him and his development, he could become another Derick Hougaard or Jonny Wilkinson.'
Tuks coach Freddie Grobler says that it's Roos's ability to slot the important – and at times outrageous – kicks under pressure that earned the 18-year-old selection over bigger, more experienced players.
'We saw him play for the Bulls Craven Week team under coach Paul Anthony and were very impressed. In my opinion, Varsity Cup matches are often won and lost on the back of three points, so we backed Juan-Claude who has proved that he can consistently give us those vital points.
'He does still have room to improve, though. His attacking ability and running lines could use some work, but once he's sorted that out he'll be the complete flyhalf.'
Roos is less concerned with the hype surrounding his own game than with the ascendancy of his side.
'I just want to do my best to contribute to the team's success and hopefully Tuks can come out on top this season. It's all about pushing the side forward by putting in the best performances I can.'

LightWave Applink
Posted 05 January 2011 - 09:41 PM
so we wrote one ourselves and we are putting it out for a free beta!!!
Anyone who wants to beta test it out, sign up and follow the development at http://www.liberty3d...c.php?f=3&t=293
It works as a Mac UB plugin PPC/i32/i64 for both LW9.3.1 and up, and LW10.
There is also a Win32 and Win64 version that has been tested on LW9 and LW10.
We will also have more freebie tools and videos available soon through our freebies area on the website.

# Description: 3D-Coat AppLink for Newtek LightWave (Layout)
# Version: 1.02 for WIN / 1.03 for OS X
# Author: Ilia Zaslavsky <|> Email: firstname.lastname@example.com <|> Web: http://flavors.me/vfxdomain
# Last Update: 22:40 29/11/11
# 3D-Coat Home Page: http://www.3d-coat.com
# Notes: AutoAppLink functionality added for compatibility with File -> Export to -> LightWave feature in 3D-Coat & OS X compatibility fixed
Unzip the archive.
Copy 3D-Coat AppLink folder with 3dc_applink_gui_GN.lcs, 3dc_applink_autoimport_GN.lcs and 3dc_applink_autocreate_GN.lsc files inside to some place on your HD, C:\Program Files\NewTek\LightWave10.1\support\plugins\scripts (/Applications/NewTek/LightWave10.1/support/plugins/scripts on Mac) for example, or any other folder you're using for scripts. In LightWave (Layout), hit "Add Plugins" button, browse to the directory where you saved *.lcs files and add them one by one. To add UI buttons, select "Edit Menu Layout" from the "Edit" menu of Layout, find 3D-Coat AppLink, 3D-Coat (Auto-Import) and 3D-Coat (Setup Auto-Import) items on the left side and drag them to the prefered location on the right side. Now you can use this buttons to run AppLink scripts from LightWave Layout UI.
"source" folder is included in the archive for those who want to check and/or modify uncompiled ".LS" files, please do so by all means! Any suggestions/improvements from more skilled LScript coders would be gladly accepted!
In LightWave Layout choose mesh you want to edit in 3D-Coat, then run AppLink UI by hitting
3D-Coat AppLink button you've created, or by using LScript/RT and selecting 3dc_applink_GN.lcs file.
In AppLink GUI, select "Import from 3D-Coat" or "Export to 3D-Coat" button, set needed options and hit OK. Switch to 3D-Coat,
"import object" will pop up, set your options, hit OK and edit imported mesh to your heart content. When done,
hit File -> Open in original app in 3D-Coat main menu.
Now switch back to LightWave, run AppLink and select 'Import from 3D-Coat' button to
bring edited mesh with textures and maps created in 3D-Coat back to LightWave.
You can repeat the whole process as many times as needed.
Usage (Auto-Import):
Now you can send meshes to LightWave straight from 3D-Coat, by using File -> Export to -> LightWave menu in 3D-Coat.
LightWave will be started if needed, to get geometry and textures you've exported from 3D-Coat
via File -> Export to -> LightWave menu hit 3D-Coat (Auto-Import) button or run 3dc_applink_autoimport_GN.lcs
script if you have not added 3D-Coat (Auto-Import) button to the UI for some reason.
To use File -> Export to -> LightWave feature from 3D-Coat, you should create files needed for this feature to work,
you can do this by hitting 3D-Coat (Setup Auto-Import) button or run 3dc_applink_autocreate_GN.lsc
script if you have not added 3D-Coat (Setup Auto-Import) button to the UI for some reason.
Uncheck "Enable Disp" if you're replacing mesh with Bump Displacement on it enabled!
If you're not replacing old mesh (Replace Mesh checkbox off) or replacing mesh without Bump Displacement on it,
leave "Enable Disp" checkbox on...
Do not uncheck "Get Maps Back" and "Get Mesh Back" checkboxes for now,
they may behave in unexpected way. I will try to fix in to enable selective updates (only mesh, only textures or both)
in the next few days, or i will remove this checkboxes from UI if it is imposible to get them to work correctly...

I've been trying to get the old lscript running... and it's not working as it used to. Had it running fine in Win7, but literally just upgraded to Win 8 and the model doesn't come through into 3DCoat automatically. All the files appear to be generated using the script, but simply 3dcoat isn't opening the object?!?!
(I've edited the script so that it opens the correct .exe for 3dcoat... just in case you thought I may have failed at that hurdle)
Posted 21 January 2013 - 01:19 PM
For now i have 2 choices:
1) Waiting when 11.5 version will be released. (May be this problem will be fixed).
2) Rewrite applink on C++. In this case i don't have access to MacOS.
I'd prefer 1-st item.
Posted 22 January 2013 - 03:32 PM
Have you tried messaging Matt Gorner, or Rob Powers over on the forum? Or opening a bug report for them? They tend to get good responses from the developers and things... I can enquire to find out if any fixes have been done to Python ready for 11.5...
Newtek's Bug reporting system is here:
Choose 'New Case' and enter the details there!
Sorry, Matt Gorner is the UI designer/generalist programmer and his Forum ID is 'Matt'. And I think Rob Power's ID is 'RobPowers3D'
Posted 22 January 2013 - 04:34 PM
Posted 22 January 2013 - 09:18 PM
So... if you do a report, the development team will respond I'm sure... especially if you tell them you're developing a link app between 3dCoat and LightWave!!!
I will enquire regarding python changes in the latest build.... hold tight...
Posted 24 January 2013 - 01:13 PM
The 11.5 is going to be out before the end of Jan (most likely the last day, maybe 1st of Feb)... so guess we'll all find out then! My contact has recently installed Windows 8 and lost his account details for his beta downloads... they were linked to his profile, so unfortunately he can't check the python stuff right now... only a week to wait though
Posted 24 January 2013 - 09:46 PM
I'm doing a new version that written totally on Python. I was almost on finish line until I've found that important part of LW python API has empty methods inside (NodeEditor stuff). Without them i can't setup shader connections up properly for visual feedback. I asked Newtek guys on official forum about this issue, but they didn't response me.
For now i have 2 choices:
1) Waiting when 11.5 version will be released. (May be this problem will be fixed).
2) Rewrite applink on C++. In this case i don't have access to MacOS.
I'd prefer 1-st item.
Can I ask you how the applink works and what the benefit of it would be? Is it just one-click add to scene - or edit in 3dCoat from within a scene? If I am happy manually importing and exporting lwos from 3DCoat, is convenience to launch 3DC from LW the only thing that is added or are there other features? thanks

AppLink is basically a one-click transfer, but it's handy, and takes away the manual updating and stuff. (Currently having major problems in Win8 at home though, due to security policies on my C:\ drive... can't fix it though )
Good idea, dude, but like regular developer i don't have a LW license =). For bug reporting i need have customer account, as i've got. If you have access, could you figure out: do they are going to improve LWPy in next release?..
LW 11.5 is available now!! This is copied directly from the new Manual... seems like good news!
In LightWave 11.5 we have full LightWave-oriented Python documentation in the LightWave/sdk
folder and there are more example scripts in the LightWave/support/pugins/scripts/Python folder.
There are also lots of people out there who can teach scripting in general and Python specifically
and it doesn't have to cost anything. Here are some good sites offering free courses:
• http://docs.python.o...rial/index.html - A good place to start. The docs for Python itself.
• http://wiki.python.o.../NonProgrammers - A guide to several good
resources for learning Python, including starter guides for people that have never
programmed before.
• http://www.diveintopython.net/ - An open source guide for programmers who are new to
Python, but not programming in general. Available in several languages.
• http://ocw.mit.edu/c...tion-tocomputer-
science-and-programming-fall-2008/ - MIT's Introduction to Computer Science and
Programming. Uses Python and teaches computational thinking.
Bob Hood, inventor of LScript, and integrator of Python into LightWave, has made an LScript to
Python converter available at http://www.lucidgears.com:21134/
New Plugin Architectures
In 11.5 we have added the following plugin architectures to the Python integration, along with
example scripts:
• Frame Buffer
• Environment
• Shader Nodes
• Instancer
• Image Loader
• Image Saver
Single-Shot Format
For programmers familiar with LScript, Python can seem verbose by contrast. 11.5 introduces a
more immediate way of using Python for single-shot scripts - scripts that are executed and then
forgotten. Two examples have been created to illustrate the new "single-shot" format for those
plug-in architectures. They are re-formatted versions of the existing example scripts "add_null_
ss.py" in the Generic folder, and "make_test_ss.py" in the CommandSequence (Modeler) folder. Full
documentation can be found in the Python documentation in the LightWave/sdk folder.
Sooooo, there you go! I hope this answers any questions, and I'll keep my fingers crossed for the new AppLink coming soon
Posted 05 February 2013 - 05:05 PM
There you go if it's needed!

Just downloaded the manual install .lsc files, put them in my plugins folder, fired up Lightwave Layout and added all three buttons to my UI. When I attempt to run any of the three I get multiple errors. Attached are screen shots of what I see when I try to run the setup button, for example. Do I need to do some other manual configuration steps in order to get Applink for LW working on my Mac? I'm running LW 11.5, and Mountain Lion.
Thanks in advance!
Even though LScripts are platform agnostic, a lot of LScripts end up being in compatible purely because of differences in file paths bewtween mac and pc. Obviously this error is failing for you because the script is attempting to make a temp folder on a mac that is invalid. Perhaps the script is trying to use a C drive or something else in the string it is passing to mkdir (make directory). So it needs an update to work...
Posted 24 February 2013 - 03:35 PM
I tried a couple of variations but I don't know lscript syntax so I wasn't successful, unfortunately.
