  • Dave Behrman
    Professional Football Researchers Association www.profootballresearchers.com Dave Behrman This article was written by Budd Bailey. It’s a given that playing football can take a toll on a person. Even so, Dave Behrman was particularly unlucky in this area. Not only was his promising career cut short by physical problems, but Behrman’s quality of life also suffered well past the time that the game was just a memory for him. David Wesley Behrman was born on November 9, 1941, in Dowagiac, Michigan. That’s a small town in the southwest corner of the state, located about 25 miles north of South Bend, Indiana, and 25 miles southeast of Benton Harbor, Michigan. Dowagiac’s biggest celebrity (literally and figuratively) might be Chris Taylor, the 412-pound wrestler who won a bronze medal for the United States at the 1972 Olympics in Munich. Dave’s father was Chauncey Orville Behrman, who was born in Volinia – just east of Dowagiac. Mother Freda was born in Sturgis – about an hour southeast of Volinia near the Indiana state line. Dave was an only child. Behrman stayed in Dowagiac through his childhood, and attended Dowagiac Union High School. That facility had only one other pro football player among its alumni. Vern Davis played three games at cornerback for the 1971 Philadelphia Eagles. Information about Dave’s time with the Chieftains is tough to find. We do know that Behrman was on his way to become something of a giant on the line, since he reportedly checked in at 280 1 Professional Football Researchers Association www.profootballresearchers.com pounds at that stage of his life.

  • Rewriting Universes: Post-Brexit Futures in Dave Hutchinson’S Fractured Europe Quartet
    humanities Article Rewriting Universes: Post-Brexit Futures in Dave Hutchinson’s Fractured Europe Quartet Hadas Elber-Aviram Department of English, The University of Notre Dame (USA) in England, London SW1Y 4HG, UK; [email protected] Abstract: Recent years have witnessed the emergence of a new strand of British fiction that grapples with the causes and consequences of the United Kingdom’s vote to leave the European Union. Building on Kristian Shaw’s pioneering work in this new literary field, this article shifts the focus from literary fiction to science fiction. It analyzes Dave Hutchinson’s Fractured Europe quartet— comprised of Europe in Autumn (pub. 2014), Europe at Midnight (pub. 2015), Europe in Winter (pub. 2016) and Europe at Dawn (pub. 2018)—as a case study in British science fiction’s response to the recent nationalistic turn in the UK. This article draws on a bespoke interview with Hutchinson and frames its discussion within a range of theories and studies, especially the European hermeneutics of Hans-Georg Gadamer. It argues that the Fractured Europe quartet deploys science fiction topoi to interrogate and criticize the recent rise of English nationalism. It further contends that the Fractured Europe books respond to this nationalistic turn by setting forth an estranged vision of Europe and offering alternative modalities of European identity through the mediation of photography and the redemptive possibilities of cooking. Keywords: speculative fiction; science fiction; utopia; post-utopia; dystopia; Brexit; England; Europe; Dave Hutchinson; Fractured Europe quartet Citation: Elber-Aviram, Hadas. 2021.

  • Rescuing Ambition
    Putting Ambition to Work It’s time to reach further and dream bigger for the glory of God. Rescuing Ambition Rescuing “This is not a self-help book that doesn’t really help; it’s a wake-up alarm to rouse the good gifts specifically placed within us by God for his own glory.” SCOTT THOMAS, Rescuing Director, Acts 29 Church Planting Network “You will find this book not only profitable but also hard to put down.” JERRY BRIDGES, author, The Pursuit of Holiness Ambition “Dave Harvey has delivered a compelling case for developing God-ward ambition in the lives of men and women alike. With self-effacing humor, Dave reveals how being wired for glory can either corrupt us or lead us to a divine agenda. Highly recommended!” CAROLYN MCCULLEY, author, Radical Womanhood and Did I Kiss Marriage Goodbye? “I hope every leader in the church today will read Rescuing Ambition.” ED STETZER, President, LifeWay Research “Whether you’re on Main Street or Wall Street, this book has something to say to you.” JOSH DECKARD, Former Assistant Press Secretary to President Bush “Those who want to live with high and glorious purpose for the Savior must read this book.” THABITI ANYABWILE, Senior Pastor, First Baptist Church of Grand Cay- man; author, What Is a Healthy Church Member?

  • The Lost Boys of Bird Island
    Tafelberg To the lost boys of Bird Island – and to all voiceless children who have suffered abuse by those with power over them Foreword by Marianne Thamm Secrets, lies and cover-ups In January 2015, an investigative team consisting of South African and Belgian police swooped on the home of a 37-year-old computer engineer, William Beale, located in the popular Garden Route seaside town of Plettenberg Bay. The raid on Beale came after months of meticulous planning that was part of an intercontinental investigation into an online child sex and pornography ring. The investigation was code-named Operation Cloud 9. Beale was the first South African to be arrested. He was snagged as a direct result of the October 2014 arrest by members of the Antwerp Child Sexual Exploitation Team of a Belgian paedophile implicated in the ring. South African police, under the leadership of Lieutenant Colonel Heila Niemand, cooperated with Belgian counterparts to expose the sinister network, which extended across South Africa and the globe. By July 2017, at least 40 suspects had been arrested, including a 64-year-old Johannesburg legal consultant and a twenty-year-old Johannesburg student. What police found on Beale’s computer was horrifying. There were thousands of images and videos of children, and even babies, being abused, tortured, raped and murdered. In November 2017, Beale pleaded guilty to around 19 000 counts of possession of child pornography and was sentenced to fifteen years in jail, the harshest punishment ever handed down in a South African court for the possession of child pornography.

  • Tim Shiels DF
    TS - Tim Shiels DF - Dave Frisch TS – Dave, how were you first introduced to the sport of wrestling? DF – I had 3 older brothers who wrestled, they dragged me to wrestling practice when I was in elementary school. By 7th grade, I thought I could be pretty good at wrestling. As an 8th grader, I broke into the high school JV team and as a 10th grader I made the varsity squad near the end of the season. During my 3 years on the Varsity at St. James High School in Minnesota, we never lost a dual meet and we won the One Class 1972 State Championship - a huge accomplishment for a small school from a town of 4,000. TS – What were some of the triumphs, disappointments and favorite memories you recall both as a high school and college wrestler? DF – In high school and college I had great teammates, many of my college teammates, Jerry Schmidt, Chuck Seifert, Steve Wenker and Bruce Campbell are my closest friends to this day. Bruce Campbell was a great wrestler and helped me tremendously at Worthington Junior College. Paul Kruger at St. James and John Oxton at St. Cloud State University were outstanding coaches. Many of my teammates at St. Cloud State, like me, started at Junior College, we connected and were truly a team. My greatest disappointment as a wrestler in both high school and college, was that I always finished 1 match short. In my senior year of high school, the top 2 finishers at the Regional Tournament advanced to State – I placed 3rd.

We are forging ahead on many fronts, including the completion of this special issue of spirit Magazine featuring the annual SPIRIT of Performance Awards. One of the most important responsibilities of my job is meeting with ConocoPhillips employees and listening to their ideas and concerns. During the past quarter, I visited China, Malaysia and Indonesia and saw the amazing work our people are doing on projects such as additional development phases at the Peng Lai field in Bohai Bay; production rampup and an active exploration program in Malaysia; and an initiative to sell more gas in Indonesia. During a visit to Alaska, I heard excitement around our Willow discovery in the National Petroleum Reserve and the active upcoming winter drilling campaign. In July, the company’s board of directors joined me on a visit to our Bakken operations in North Dakota, where the team patiently answered all our questions and showed why ConocoPhillips is recognized as an operator of choice in that important region.

  • Podcast Transcription Fly by Night: Captain Dave Chase, November
    Podcast Transcription Fly by Night: Captain Dave Chase, November 2020 Captain Chris Lee My guest today is Captain Dave Chase, MEC Chairman. Thanks for coming, Dave. Captain Dave Chase How are you doing, Chris? Captain Chris Lee You recently put out a comm to the pilots to inform them of the MEC invoking Section 5.B.4.b of the CBA. Talk to the pilots about what that section is and what that process entails. Captain Dave Chase OK, happy to. That's similar to a grievance, but it's related to Lodging and Rest Facilities. So Section 5.B is Lodging and Rest Facilities and when you get down to 5.B.4.b you start talking about how we address problems and concerns with layover facilities and whether or not they meet the quality and standards that we expect in the collective bargaining agreement. Clearly, the hotel and Guangzhou is not meeting that. I think the Company has put out some pretty clear FCIFs on how they feel about it as well in their attempts to change the hotel. But we believe they've had enough time after we met with them through the Trip Services Committee as the collective bargaining agreement specifies. We didn't feel like they were taking action in a timely manner and given the extreme nature of some of the reports and the difficulties in getting proper food and rest, we felt it was important to elevate to the Vice President of Flight Ops. So we sent that letter over yesterday and like we do any time we grieve or send a letter over, we notify the pilots.
