He served as the head football coach at Santa Clara University (1946–1949), the University of Pittsburgh (1950), and the University of Oregon (1951–1966), compiling a career college football record of 104–94–11. <mask> was also the head baseball coach at Santa Clara from 1940 to 1942, tallying a mark of 39–25. After retiring from coaching, he served as the athletic director at Oregon. <mask> was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame as a coach in 1977. Early life and playing career
<mask> was born to Swiss-American immigrants, John and Marie Ursula Casanov on June 12, 1905 on a ranch in the Grizzly Bluff area near Ferndale, California. He got his start in football in the early 1920s when he played halfback for Ferndale High School, and in 1922 he captained the Ferndale team to a co-championship with Eureka High School.The Ferndale team ended the season with seven wins in eight games. One of <mask>'s early athletic feats came in the first game that year against Arcata High School when, as a left-footed kicker, he drop-kicked a 45-yard field goal as Ferndale defeated the Tigers, 10–0. Clark Bugbee, a high school teammate, later recalled that "Cas wanted to be a good punter. The coach gave him a football to take home and practice with. He practiced winter and summer and turned out to be quite a punter in college." While in high school, <mask> delivered newspapers and worked at a meat market in town. In his senior year, he also played basketball and baseball and was president of the student body.In the 1923 Ferndale High School yearbook, under the column "Expected to Be" in the "Senior Horoscope" section, <mask> listed his future career as "football coach". <mask> entered Santa Clara University in the fall of

 1923 and played football and baseball from 1923 through 1927. As a freshman in a game against Stanford, he picked up a fumble and returned it 86 yards for a touchdown. In 1924, <mask> was playing halfback and punting for Santa Clara. He first made headlines as a player for Santa Clara in 1924 after his heroics in a game against Saint Mary's. A popular rivalry since its origination in 1895, the "Little Big Game" between Santa Clara and Saint Mary's was played annually in front of packed crowds at Kezar Stadium in San Francisco. With the ball resting on the Santa Clara two-yard line, <mask> was called on to punt from his own end zone.He punted a ball that went out of bounds on the Saint Mary's one-yard line. The punt traveled a total of 97 yards and would (as of 2006) rank as the second longest of college football history if pre-1937 statistics were included in the NCAA record book. <mask> was Santa Clara's team captain in his senior year under coach Adam Walsh, who had played at Notre Dame under Knute Rockne. <mask> graduated in 1927 with a bachelor's degree in philosophy and a minor in history. He attended summer sessions at Santa Clara and obtained his teaching credential in 1932. Following college graduation, <mask> played one season with the San Francisco Olympic Club team.

His 1948 team defeated Stanford, tied Michigan State, and posted an upset win over Oklahoma at Kezar Stadium, 20–17. In 1949, the Santa Clara Broncos opened with a disappointing defeat at the hands of the California Golden Bears. Santa Clara then went unbeaten over its next eight games, marred only by a 7–7 tie with Stanford. After nearly upsetting Oklahoma in Norman, the Broncos were invited to play in the Orange Bowl in Miami.Their opponent was the #11-ranked Kentucky Wildcats, coached by Bear Bryant. Bryant, who later became the all-time winningest football coach in collegiate history after moving on to Texas A&M and Alabama, had earlier served under <mask> in theNavy. Kentucky was an overwhelming favorite going into the game. Santa Clara's 19-car train to Miami was known as the "Orange Bowl Special" and it stopped at Yuma, Arizona and Del Rio, Texas to allow the team to hold short practice sessions. In Miami, Santa Clara scored a monumental upset of Kentucky, 21–13. Santa Clara led 14–13 and scored its final touchdown with thirty seconds remaining in the game. Bryant remarked after the game: "I had better men at my disposal than <mask> had.He got more out of his men than I did." After the Orange Bowl win, Santa Clara announced

 that as a cost-cutting measure it was dropping major college football. Pittsburgh
In 1950, <mask> was offered the head coaching position at the University of Pittsburgh. He expected to have an experienced team to play a tough schedule that included Notre Dame, Michigan State, and Ohio State. But in June 1950, the Korean War began and most of his players were called into military duty. His depleted ranks were able to gain but one victory in the 1950 season. Oregon

In 1951, <mask> moved on to the University of Oregon and took over a program that had finished 1–9 the previous season.He left as the winningest coach in the school's football history with 82 victories,  surpassed by Rich Brooks in 1994. The Oregon Ducks played in one of the earliest nationally televised games in 1953 against Nebraska, winning 20–12. <mask>'s 1957 team is remembered for beating Stanford in a game in which they had no fumbles, no interceptions, and only one penalty. That team finished its season on New Year's Day with a 10–7 loss to top-ranked Ohio State in the Rose Bowl. Tabbed for a three touchdown licking, <mask>'s Oregon Ducks matched the more numerous and more powerful athletes from the Big Ten Conference out-gaining Ohio State in total yards and first downs. A missed 24-yard field goal and fumble in the fourth quarter cost Oregon the upset victory. <mask>'s 1958 team ranked second in the country in scoring defense, allowing an average of just five points a game, and surrendered more than seven points just once during the season.At Oregon, <mask> coached two future Hall of Famers, Mel Renfro and Dave Wilcox, and helped assistants George Seifert, John McKay, and John Robinson start their own illustrious coaching careers. "He was a mentor to all us, a man who set an example," Robinson said. "And he loved us. He genuinely cared about us as players. He would get on our

Later life, honors, and death
After retiring from coaching in 1966, <mask> served as the Oregon's athletic director from 1967 to 1970 during which time Autzen Stadium was completed. He remained closely associated with the University of Oregon for many years and was active in numerous fundraising efforts and special projects that improved the school's athletic facilities. From 1969 to 1973, <mask> served on the NCAA football rules committee. He was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1977 and received the Amos Alonzo Stagg Award in 1990. The award given to the freshman or newcomer of the year on the Oregon football team is named the "<mask> Award" in his honor. In 1991, the University of Oregon in decided that <mask>'s distinguished record merited an exception to State Board of Higher Education policy regarding the naming of buildings after living persons.In honor of <mask>'s 40 years of contribution to the Ducks' athletic fortunes, Oregon's new athletic department facility was named the <mask> Casanova Athletic Center.

<mask> (1 July 1797–23 August 1848) was a British actor-manager and singer of comic songs of the early 19th-century. He played Sam Weller in Samuel Weller, or, The Pickwickians in 1837. Early life

W. J<mask> was born in 1797 in Soho in London, the son of Anna Maria Lockhead (1767–1812) and <mask>. As a youth he was apprenticed to a letter painter and decorator, but to the annoyance of his parents he turned his back on this career in favour of one on the stage, and left home at 19 to pursue it. A low comedian and singer, his first appearance on the London stage was as Lopez in <mask>'s The Honey Moon, probably in early 1819. In July 1819 he joined a new stock company at Walton-on-Thames, while in September 1820 he was with Thomas Trotter's company at the Theatre Royal in Worthing before joining the acting company of <mask> at Brighton. Between 1820 and 1821 he variously appeared at the Haymarket Theatre and with Penley's company while it was playing at Worthing, Windsor and Coventry.He joined the company of <mask> the Elder, the father of the tragedian <mask>, at the Theatre Royal in Bristol before a short period at the Olympic Theatre in London. Between 1823 and 1826 he toured the York circuit and during this early period in his career he gained success as Bob Acres in The Rivals and as Tony Lumpkin in She Stoops to Conquer. On 13 August 1822 in London he married Jane Matilda Jerrold (1801–1866), the sister of the dramatist and writer <mask> Jerrold. She would later act as Mrs W. J. <mask>. Their children were: Mary Ann <mask> (born 1825); <mask> <mask> (1827–1903); Jane Matilda <mask> (1829–1842); Henry Holbrey <mask> (1833–1908); Fanny Elizabeth <mask> (1834–1878); Emily H <mask> (born 1836); <mask> (1840–1902) and Susanna <mask> (born 1842).

From 1826 to 1829 <mask> and his wife appeared at the Theatre Royal in Liverpool, while in 1829 he was one of a partnership running the Liverpool Pantheon, which he reopened as the Liver Theatre, remaining there until 1836.In April 1830 he took over the management of the York circuit which included the Theatre Royal, Hull and the Theatre Royal, York in addition to other theatres at Doncaster, Leeds and Wakefield. Although he was only manager of the circuit for a short period he attracted well-known actors of the day to the theatres, including Edmund Kean, Charles Mathews, Frederick Henry Yates and Madame Vestris. He gave up all but the theatre at Doncaster in 1832 when he could not negotiate a reduction in his rents at the other theatres. In Liverpool in 1834 he played the title role in Dowling's Othello by Act of Parliament, a musical burlesque version of Othello. At Doncaster he put on an annual autumn season until 1839, and took out a lease on the theatre at Sheffield from 1833 to 1839. He returned to Liverpool where he became well known to theatre audiences as an actor, comedian and theatre owner where he played in comedies and burlesque. Royal Strand Theatre

From 25 April 1836 for three years he and his brother-in-law Douglas Jerrold held the lease on the small Royal Strand Theatre in London, enlarging the theatre in 1836 and adding a gallery in 1839.An early production was Jerrold's two-act comedy The Schoolfellows. Their production of Poachers and Petticoats featured the actress Louisa Cranstoun Nisbett. A Freemason, he was initiated into the Bank of England Lodge No. 263 in April 1836 at which time he gave his occupation as 'Music Dealer' and his address as the Strand Theatre. At the Strand Theatre he reprised his role in Othello

 by Act of Parliament and acted in a burlesques version of The Lady of Lyons. In 1837 as actor-manager he directed and played the lead role in Samuel Weller, or, The Pickwickians. Their management of the theatre was not successful, and the partnership was dissolved.However, while it lasted Jerrold wrote his only tragedy, The Painter of Ghent, and himself appeared in the title role, without much success. The contemporary theatre journal Actors by Daylight (1838) referred to him as 'this favourite son of Momus’ and commented on his ‘agreeable quaintness’. A friend was the author Charles Dickens. Bankruptcy and prison
From October 1839 <mask> was the manager of the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane but despite the patronage of Queen Victoria the venture was a financial disaster leading to the failure of his management in March 1840 when he was declared bankrupt with debts of £8,000. He spent more than a year in debtors' prison and on his release he attempted to revive his previous success by appearing with provincial companies. The actor <mask> (1831–1904) later recollected of <mask> that, 'He had wigs of all kinds and costumes of every description, but he was always <mask> in another wig and another coat.' Later years
By December 1842 <mask> and his family had returned once again to Liverpool where he briefly held the lease for the Theatre Royal, while later that month his daughter Jane Matilda, who was attending school in Boulogne, died aged 13 and was buried there.In 1846 he opened another Liverpool theatre as the Theatre Royal Adelphi, but this also proving unsuccessful in June 1848 he sailed for an acting engagement in the United States. In July 1848 he made his New York début at Niblo's Garden Theatre at Astor Place where he sang from his repertoire of comic songs. In early August 1848 he appeared in various productions at Niblo's including playing

On the second night of his appearance in the title role in Paul Pry parts of his role were omitted owing to his fatigue. <mask> <mask> died of dysentry at the residence of a Mrs Black on Broadway in New York on 23 August 1848 only five weeks after arriving in America. His personal belongings were auctioned including the scarlet frock coat he wore as Tony Lumpkin in his début at Niblo's Theatre, various other costumes, a number of wigs and the orchestral scores which singers provided for theatre orchestras. He received an obituary in The Illustrated London News which stated:
This well known actor died recently in New York, leaving, we are sorry to say, his wife and family of seven children perfectly destitute.Mr <mask> was known through the country as one of the best low comedy actors of his day, and as a manager. In London he directed the Strand Theatre in its more palmy era and afterwards for a brief season, Drury Lane. A subscription, we understand, has been set on foot at Liverpool for the relief of his family; we trust the example may be followed in the metropolis. <mask>'s funeral service was held at St Mark's church in New York attended by various members of the acting profession and he was buried in Green-Wood Cemetery. His son Henry Holbrey <mask> became a mining engineer in Peru and on his father's death he took on the financial responsibility for his mother and younger siblings. Having experienced at first hand the financial uncertainty connected with a theatrical career, he discouraged his own children from going on the stage. References

texts:
<mask> (; 19 June 1926 – 14 March 1972) was an influential Italian publisher and businessman active following the Second World War. He founded a vast library of documents mainly in the history of international labor and socialist movements. He became a left-wing activist preceding Italy's Years of Lead. <mask> is perhaps most famous for his decision to translate and publish Boris Pasternak's novel Doctor Zhivago in the West after the manuscript was smuggled out of the Soviet Union in the late 1950s. He died violently under mysterious circumstances in 1972. Early life
<mask> was born in 1926 into one of Italy's wealthiest families, perhaps originating in Feltre. His father Carlo controlled numerous companies including Credito Italiano, Edison and Legnami Feltrinelli, which managed vast lumber holdings in central Europe, some having provided sleepers for the enormous extension of Italian railway tracks in the nineteenth century.Carlo died in 1935. At the instigation of <mask>'s monarchist mother, Giannalisa, Italian leader Benito Mussolini had him created Marchese di Gargnano at the age of 12 by King Vittorio Emmanuele II, in the 1940s. <mask>'s mother married in 1940 Luigi Barzini, editor of the Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera. During the Second World War, the family left the Villa Feltrinelli in Gargnano, north of Salò, to be occupied by Mussolini, and moved to Monte Argentario. World War II
The young <mask> first took an interest in the living conditions of workers and the poor during discussions with the staff who ran his family's estate. He came to believe that under capitalism most people could never attain his privileges and were compelled to sell their labour for a pittance to industrialists and landowners.

 During the latter stages of the war, Feltrinelli joined the Legnano Combat Group and enrolled in the Italian Communist Party (PCI), fighting the invading German Army and the remnants of Mussolini's regime.In the post-war period, the PCI had a great deal of popular support and political influence (after 1948 it became the main opposition). The country was in economic ruins and the party's opposition to Mussolini had gained it great popularity. The PCI was in coalition until 1947. Inheritance
His father's will made <mask>como until 1968, when it was acquired by Michele Sindona. According to some interpretations Sindona was pushed to buy out Feltrinelli by the Vatican Bank, a minority shareholder embarrassed by cohabitation with a communist partner. Library
From 1949 Feltrinelli collected documents for the Giangiacomo Feltrinelli Library in Milan, documenting the history of ideas, in particular those related to the development of the international labor and socialist movements.The Library later became an Institute; later still the Giangiacomo Feltrinelli Foundation, possessing some 200,000 rare and modern books, extensive collections of newspapers and periodicals, both historical and current, and over a million primary source materials. Publishing
Near the end of 1954, Giangiacomo Feltrinelli established a publishing company in Milan, Giangiacomo Feltrinelli Editore. Its first published book was the autobiography of the first Indian Prime Minister, Jawaharlal Nehru. Dr. Zhivago
In late 1956, an Italian journalist showed Feltrinelli the manuscript of Doctor Zhivago by the Russian writer Boris Pasternak. <mask>'s Slavist advisor told him, "Not to publish a novel like this would constitute a crime against culture". His son

 Carlo's biography of Feltrinelli records a correspondence between him and Pasternak, as they successfully resisted clumsy attempts by the Soviet regime to halt publication of the novel. Doctor Zhivago immediately became an international best seller.<mask> sold the film rights to Metro-Goldwyn-Meyer for $450,000. Produced in 1965, the resulting adaptation became one of the highest-grossing and critically acclaimed films of all time. The communist leadership in Moscow, which had not wanted the book published, criticised <mask>, who in turn decided not to renew his PCI membership in 1957. While Feltrinelli remained on good terms with the PCI, party leaders were reluctant to be seen to condone criticism of the Soviet Union. The Leopard
Feltrinelli Editore scored another coup in 1958 when it published a book rejected by every other significant Italian publisher: The Leopard by Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa. Described by some as the greatest novel of the twentieth century, The Leopard centres on the Sicilian nobility during the Risorgimento of the mid-19th century, when the Italian middle class rose violently and formed a united Italy under Giuseppe Garibaldi and the House of Savoy. Despite these successes, Feltrinelli Editore lost about 400 million lire a year on a turnover of 1.207 billion lire, as Feltrinelli believed in keeping his prices low for maximum readership access.Still, the Feltrinelli Libra bookstore chain had a nominal capital of 120 million lire in 1956. Feltrinelli Masonite, which he chaired, had a turnover of 1.421 billion lire in 1965. Another firm which he advised on real estate development had a capital of 400 million lire in 1970. So ample funds were available from Feltrinelli's other investments. Whatever

 his own reading tastes, Feltrinelli was always keen to promote the avant-garde, including the works of the influential literary circle Group 63. He also took the risk of publishing and distributing novels banned under obscenity laws, such as Henry Miller's Tropic of Cancer. Starting in Pisa in 1957, Feltrinelli built up a chain of retail outlets which after his death became the largest in Italy; it had over a hundred bookshops.In 1960 <mask> married the German photographer Inge Schönthal, and they had a son and heir, Carlo. Inge eventually became the de facto head of the publishing house as <mask> came to devote himself to clandestine political activity, of which she disapproved. Mother and son still run Feltrinelli Editore together today. Activism
In the post-war period, <mask> had joined the Italian Socialist Party (PSI) before returning to the PCI, which he left again in 1957. Third world activism
Feltrinelli spent the 1960s travelling the world and making links with various radical Third World leaders and guerrilla movements. In the Cuban house of the photographer Alberto Korda, Feltrinelli saw and was given Korda's iconic photo of Che Guevara. Within six months of Che's assassination, Feltrinelli sold over two million posters bearing the image.In 1964, <mask> met the leader of the Cuban revolution, Fidel Castro. In 1967 he went to Bolivia and met with Régis Debray. Feltrinelli published the writings of figures such as Castro, Che and Ho Chi Minh, and a series of pamphlets on the unfolding insurgencies and wars in Southeast Asia and the Middle East. He was a close friend of the student leader Rudi Dutschke, whom he invited to convalesce in Italy after Dutschke was seriously wounded by an assassination attempt. <mask>

His attempt to strengthen Graziano Mesina's rebel forces was eventually nullified by Italian military intelligence.<mask> increasingly advocated guerrilla activity in Italy on behalf of the working class. In 1970, fearing a right-wing coup d'etat, he founded the militant Gruppi di Azione Partigiana (Partisan Action Groups, GAP).

On 15 March 1972, <mask> was found dead at the foot of an electricity pylon at Segrate, near Milan, apparently killed by an explosive device he and other GAP members were planting the day before. Some 8,000 people attended <mask>'s funeral. His death, like his father's 37 years before, was viewed as suspicious by several intellectuals, including investigative journalist Camilla Cederna, but Barzini rejected the hypothesis of a state-sponsored assassination:

In 1974 an audio recording found in a shelter of the Red Brigades described Feltrinelli as

texts:
<mask> (born July 23, 1974) is an American former track and field sprinter who competed in the 100 meters and 200 meters. He is a former 100 m world record holder with a time of 9.79 seconds. During the height of his career (1997–2004) he won four Olympic medals and was a five-time World Champion. This included three golds at the 1999 World Championships, a feat which had previously only been achieved by Carl Lewis and Michael Johnson and has since been equaled by three others. His career was affected by a number of injuries from 2001 onwards, although he won the 100 meters bronze and silver in the sprint relay at the 2004 Summer Olympics. <mask> was also successful indoors: he was the 1999 Indoor World Champion, was the world record holder in the 60-meter dash for nearly 20 years and remains the joint-fastest man over 50 meters. He raced sparingly after an injury in 2005 and officially retired in 2008.Over his career, he made the third most sub-10-second runs (52) in the 100m, tied with Usain Bolt and only surpassed by Asafa Powell and Justin Gatlin. Following his track career he has become an ambassador for the IAAF and a TV personality, appearing on Identity, Blind Date, and Dancing with the Stars. Most recently he volunteered as a track coach at University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) for the 2012–2013 season. Early life
<mask> was born in Kansas City, Kansas and attended F.L. Schlagle High School. In his youth and high school, he participated in both American football and track and field.

Early career and breakthrough
In 1995 he took part in his first major international tournament at the World Championships in Gothenburg, but was eliminated in the 100 m quarter-finals. His next season was disappointing, as he failed to make the American team for the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta. After watching the Olympic final from the stands, <mask> made his way to Los Angeles to seek the coaching of John Smith. He joined the start up HSI group. He went on to become the group's most visible member. The following season would be his breakthrough.At the World Championships in Athens, <mask> won the 100 m title. This marked the beginning of <mask>'s dominance in the 100 m. He successfully defended his title in 1999 and 2001 and captured the Olympic gold medal in the 2000 Olympics. He was also successful at the 200 m. At the 1999 World Championships, he also won the 200 m title, the first to win both sprint events at a World Championships. However, he did not run the 200 m at the 2000 Olympics after an injury at the US trials. World record holder and athletic prime
In 1999 he set the 100 m world record at 9.79 s (+0.1 m/s wind), beating Donovan Bailey's standing world record of 9.84 s (+0.7 m/s wind), and lowering the world record by the largest margin since the advent of electronic timing. <mask> also matched Bailey's 50 m indoor world record time, but the run was never ratified. He also set the 60 m indoor world record twice.His 60 m indoor record is currently at 6.39 seconds. In addition, <mask> was the only sprinter to hold the 60 m and 100 m world records at the same time. The previous

In 2002, <mask> lost his 100 m world record to fellow American Tim Montgomery, who beat his time by 0.01 (9.78 s +2.0 m/s), while <mask> himself was injured and watched the race from the stands; Montgomery has since been found guilty of using performance-enhancing drugs, and his record has been retroactively rescinded. The record was broken legitimately by Asafa Powell in 2005 with a time of 9.77 s (+1.6 m/s wind). At the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, <mask> added to his medal tally with the bronze after finishing third in his attempt to defend his 100 m title to Justin Gatlin, and a silver as the anchor leg runner on the United States 4 × 100 m relay team, narrowly denied another Olympic Gold by the British team, who won by 0.01 seconds. <mask> ran 52 sub-10-second 100 m races during his career, which at the time was more than any other sprinter in history.This record has now been surpassed by Asafa Powell who has 97 100 m sub-10-second runs to his name and Justin Gatlin who has 64 100 m sub-10-second runs to his name and equalled by Usain Bolt who has the same amount of sub-10-second runs with 52. Previously <mask> had held the record for the most wind-legal sub-10-second clockings for 100 m in one season, when he ran 9 sub-10s in 1999. This record was also broken by Asafa Powell in 2006 (12), and it was improved by Powell in 2008 to 15. On December 21, 2006, he appeared as one of the "strangers" on the NBC game show Identity. The contestant, a self-professed track and field fan, incorrectly identified him by name as Marion Jones, although she identified him as the "world's fastest man."

<mask> "<mask><mask>. (February 10, 1934 – September 7, 2004), was an American politician and businessman who served as the 61st Governor of Mississippi from 1992 to 2000. His tenure was marked by racial tensions, an extramarital affair with his high school sweetheart, and a subsequent divorce from his wife of 44 years to marry her. He was the first Republican governor of the state since Reconstruction-era governor Adelbert Ames, who served from 1874 to 1876, and the first governor elected to two consecutive four-year terms (following a 1987 amendment to the state constitution). <mask> was a staunch conservative, running on a pro-business, anti-crime, low-tax, family values platform. A successful businessman, <mask> took over his father's construction company and became a millionaire. He ran for governor in 1991 as a Republican, championing various conservative causes. Although initially popular among voters, <mask> gained notoriety for his controversial statements.He opposed affirmative action, championed anti-crime programs, led welfare reform efforts, and proudly touted his conservative Christian views. Many non-white voters and impoverished or disadvantaged Mississippians protested against the <mask> administration. He was also criticized by environmentalists, who viewed Fordice as a denier of science. Life and career

Born in Memphis, Tennessee, Fordice studied engineering at Purdue University, becoming a member of the Sigma Chi fraternity and earning a BS and MS in 1956 and 1957, respectively. After graduation he served with the United States Army as an engineer officer in the 1st Infantry Division for two years. He remained in the Army Reserve until 1977, retiring with the rank of colonel. Fordice settled in Vicksburg and began a career in heavy construction, eventually taking over the construction company of his father, <mask> <mask> Sr.,

His second inauguration was on January 16, 1996. An outspoken conservative, Fordice advocated tax cuts, the abolishment of affirmative action, reductions in the welfare system, expanded capital punishment, tougher prison conditions and the building of more prisons. Fordice offended Jewish groups such as B'nai B'rith by referring to America as "a Christian Nation" during a Republican governors conference. South Carolina governor Carroll Campbell quickly offered a correction, adding "Judeo-" as a prefix to Christian, but Fordice snapped back that he meant what he said. He later apologized for any offense.Fordice refused to discuss any increase in public school pay rates across the state, even though Mississippi ranked 49th in the nation. When teachers discussed striking he ordered that any teacher who went on strike be immediately fired. In August 1996, Fordice signed an executive order banning recognition of same-sex marriages in Mississippi. Lawmakers said then that they would back up the executive order with a law. In 2004, Mississippi voters passed a constitutional amendment defining marriage as only between a man and a woman and further banning recognition of same-sex marriages from other states and countries. Both acts were declared unconstitutional by the 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges decision from the Supreme Court of the United

Personal life

Extramarital affair
<mask>'s tenure was roiled by an extramarital affair with his high school sweetheart Ann G. Creson, which led to his divorce from his wife of forty-four years, <mask>. After leaving office, <mask> married Ann, but they later divorced. <mask> received much scorn when he suddenly announced that he had "irreconcilable differences" with his wife in 1993; she claimed that she had no intention of getting a divorce, and they remained together. Additionally, in 1996, he was photographed eating lunch with a middle-aged woman. These two scandals were soon overshadowed by <mask>'s other actions, and he came to national attention for supporting the impeachment of then-president Bill Clinton on moral grounds. In June 1999, the media reported <mask>'s long-running extramarital affair with his high school sweetheart, Ann Creson, who had recently been widowed; they were photographed returning from a vacation together, and journalists reported that <mask> and Creson kissed and massaged each other's shoulders.Outside the governor's mansion, <mask> responded to WLBT reporter Bert Case asking questions in his news car (within the public right of way) with harsh words, while tossing junk mail at Case and threatening harm to him after the end of his term: "you invade my privacy this way, six months from now, I'll whip your ass. You have no damn business playing these games." Later that year, he announced that he was divorcing his wife of 44 years and the mother of his four children. In the divorce petition, <mask>

 claimed that he and his wife had been estranged for three years, even though they both lived in the Governor's mansion, and that he planned to marry Creson as soon as the divorce was finalized. <mask> condemned her husband's actions, issuing a formal statement reading "it is not fair for Governor <mask> to call upon her to calm the storms by making or adopting public announcements which run contrary to her true feelings ... [<mask>] apologizes to the people of this state for being a partner in a marriage that has become a source of embarrassment for Mississippi." Just days after the divorce was finalized in early 2000, Fordice married Creson; they divorced in 2003. <mask> died in 2004, surrounded by his children and former wife; the two are interred beside each other with their own individual grave markers.Retirement years and death
After retiring, <mask> settled in Madison, Mississippi. He died from leukemia in Jackson on September 7, 2004, at age 70. <mask> and <mask>, who reconciled shortly before his death, are interred with a double marker at Parkway Memorial Cemetery in Ridgeland. References

In addition to William Faulkner, John Steinbeck, Ernest Hemingway, and the magic realist writers, he was heavily influenced by Holocaust literature and by the concern of the Irish members of his childhood neighborhood, for the independence and reunion of their native country. <mask>'s published fiction includes the novels The Comeback, Blood Fugues, The Lamentable Journey of Omaha Bigelow into the Impenetrable Loisaida Jungle, and No Matter How Much You Promise to Cook or Pay the Rent You Blew It Cauze Bill Bailey Ain't Never Coming Home Again.

Bill Bailey

Critical reception of the novel No Matter How Much You Promise to Cook or Pay the Rent You Blew It Cauze Bill Bailey Ain't Never Coming Home Again was generally positive. The New York Times Book Review called it "a powerhouse of a novel ... it brings vividly to life, with its polyphony of voices, the simmering ethnic stew of the great American city", but also noted "flat-footed dialogue" and "the characters' belabored internal

 commentaries", saying "[t]he climax is so ghastly that the book never quite regains its equilibrium."Booklist hailed it as a "hypnotically readable novel--about jazz, about race, about coming-of-age, and above all, about New York ... honest, wrenching emotion, free of all artifice ... <mask>ué may just be the Thomas Wolfe of the multicultural twenty-first century." The Washington Post described it as "a sprawling, iconoclastic, ambitious, stunningly written novel that is part picaresque, part bildungsroman, and part recapitulation of America's last half century ... Like jazz and like America, this novel is fluid, unpredictable, full of verve and smarts. But it is not merely an entertainment. Deeply revisionist, tinged with tragedy and yet doggedly optimistic, this is a work that belongs on the shelf with its epic siblings: E.L. Doctorow's Ragtime and Thomas Pynchon's Vineland." Newsday found it "juicy, sprawling ... Yunqué succeeds brilliantly." The New York Post called it "a profound novel in the tradition of Ralph Ellison and William Faulkner." The novel also won the  PEN Oakland/Josephine Miles Literary Award and The Washington Post Book of the Year Award.Omaha Bigelow

<mask>'s reputation grew with The Lamentable Journey of Omaha Bigelow into the Impenetrable Loisaida Jungle. Kirkus Reviews declared the book a "raucous outing ... his characters hold forth in hilarious broken Spanglish ... vivid, wry, tragicomic ... <mask>ué is a potent talent."

Publishers Weekly announced that "<mask>ué has a keen intelligence, an ear for dialogue and a flair for zany passages of magic realism." Blood Fugues

His subsequent novel Blood Fugues solidified <mask>ué's international reputation as a literary novelist. Publishers Weekly wrote that "Yunqué writes with grace, vividly evoking New York City and American life."Booklist announced "the author is a bravura storyteller with an extraordinary ability to create fascinating, emotion-engaging characters...the novel's subplots involving political terrorism and immigrant resistance to imposed assimilation are absolutely relevant to today's America." Kirkus Reviews noted the book's "distinctive architecture,  mystery and suspense," that it was "highly descriptive," and contained "all the features of fine drama." Short story collections

<mask>'s short story collections also met with critical acclaim. The San Francisco Chronicle announced that in Mendoza's Dreams <mask> "shows us, in twelve funny and personality-laden tales, that there is indeed much more to life in Spanish Harlem than gang warfare; set to the strains of Bernstein and Sondheim."

Nicknamed "Gibby" and "Hoot" (after actor <mask>), <mask> tallied 251 wins, 3,117 strikeouts, and a 2.91 earned run average (ERA) during his career. A nine-time All-Star and two-time World Series champion, he won two Cy Young Awards and the 1968 National League (NL) Most Valuable Player (MVP) Award. Known for a fiercely competitive nature and for intimidating opposing batters, he was elected in 1981 to the Baseball Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility. The Cardinals retired his uniform number 45 in September 1975 and inducted him into the team Hall of Fame in 2014. Born in Omaha, Nebraska, <mask> overcame childhood illness to excel in youth sports, particularly basketball and baseball. After briefly playing under contract to both the Harlem Globetrotters basketball team and the St. Louis Cardinals organization, <mask> decided to continue playing only baseball professionally.He became a full-time starting pitcher in July 1961 and earned his first All-Star appearance in 1962. <mask> won 2 of 3 games he pitched in the 1964 World Series, then won 20 games in a season for the first time in 1965. <mask> also pitched three complete game victories in the 1967 World Series.

Early life
<mask> was born in Omaha, the last of Pack and <mask>'s seven children (five boys and two girls). <mask>'s father died of tuberculosis three months prior to <mask>'s birth, and <mask> was named Pack Robert <mask> in his father's honor. While he revered his father's legacy, <mask> disliked the name Pack, and later changed his first name to Robert. Despite a childhood that included health problems like rickets, and a serious case of either asthma or pneumonia when he was three, <mask> was active in sports in both informal and organized settings, particularly baseball and basketball.<mask>'s brother Josh (no relation to the Negro leagues star player), who was 15 years his senior, had a profound effect on his early life, serving as a mentor to him. <mask> played on a number of youth basketball and baseball teams his brother coached, many of which were organized through the local YMCA. <mask> attended Omaha Technical High School, where he participated on the track, basketball, and baseball

Health issues resurfaced for <mask>, though, and he needed a doctor's permission to compete in high school sports because of a heart murmur that occurred in tandem with a rapid growth spurt. <mask> was named to the All-State basketball team during his senior year of high school by a newspaper in Lincoln, Nebraska, and soon after won a full athletic scholarship for basketball from Creighton University. Indiana University had rejected him after stating their Negro athlete quota had already been filled. While at Creighton, <mask> majored in sociology, and continued to experience success playing basketball.At the end of <mask>'s junior basketball season, he averaged 22 points per game, and made third team Jesuit All-American. As his graduation from Creighton approached, the spring of 1957 proved to be a busy time for <mask>. Aside from getting married, <mask> had garnered the interest of the Harlem Globetrotters basketball team and the St. Louis Cardinals baseball team. In 1957, <mask> received a $3,000

After posting a 3–6 record with a 5.61 ERA, <mask> traveled to Venezuela to participate in winter baseball at the conclusion of the 1960 season. Cardinals manager Solly Hemus shuffled <mask> between the bullpen and the starting pitching rotation for the first half of the 1961 season. In a 2011 documentary, <mask> indicated that Hemus's racial prejudice played a major role in his misuse of <mask>, as well as of teammate Curt Flood, both of whom were told by Hemus that they would not make it as major leaguers and should try something else. Hemus was replaced as Cardinals manager in July 1961 by Johnny Keane, who had been <mask>'s manager on the Omaha minor league affiliate several years prior. Keane and <mask> shared a positive professional relationship, and Keane immediately moved <mask> into the starting pitching rotation full-time.<mask> proceeded to compile an 11–6 record the remainder of the year, and posted a 3.24 ERA for the full season. Off the field, Bill White, Curt Flood, and <mask> started a civil rights movement to make all players live in the same clubhouse and hotel rooms, and led the St. Louis Cardinals to become the first sports team to end segregation, three years before President Lyndon B.

The rehabilitation of <mask>'s ankle was a slow process, and by May 19 of the 1963 season he had recorded only one win.<mask> then turned to rely on his slider and two different fastball pitches to reel off six straight wins prior to late July. <mask> and all other National League pitchers benefited from a rule change that expanded the strike zone above the belt buckle. Adding to his pitching performances was <mask>'s offensive production, with his 20 RBIs outmatching the combined RBI output of entire pitching staffs on other National League teams. Even with <mask>'s 18 wins and the extra motivation of teammate Stan Musial's impending retirement, the Cardinals finished six games out of first place. Building on their late-season pennant run in 1963, the 1964 Cardinals developed a strong camaraderie that was noted for being free of the racial tension that predominated in the United States at that time. Part of this atmosphere stemmed from the integration of the team's spring training hotel in 1960, and <mask> and teammate Bill White worked to confront and stop use of racial slurs within the team.

 the All-Star Game in front of the hometown crowd that year as well. The Cardinals built a -game lead prior to the 1967 season All-Star break, and <mask> pitched the seventh and eighth innings of the 1967 All-Star game. <mask> then faced the Pittsburgh Pirates on July 15, when Roberto Clemente hit a line drive off <mask>'s right leg.Unaware his leg had been fractured, <mask> faced three more batters before his right fibula bone snapped above the ankle. After <mask> returned on September 7, the Cardinals secured the National League pennant on September 18,  games ahead of the San Francisco Giants. In the 1967 World Series against the Boston Red Sox, <mask> allowed only three earned runs and 14 hits over three complete-game victories in Games 1, 4 (five-hit shutout), and 7, the latter two marks tying Christy Mathewson's 1905 World Series record. Just as he had in 1964, <mask> pitched a complete-game victory in Game 7, against Cy Young winner Jim Lonborg, who pitched a 1-hitter in Game 2. <mask> also contributed offensively in Game 7 by hitting a home run that made the game 3–0. <mask> became the only pitcher to be on the mound for the final out of Game 7 of a World Series multiple times. Unlike his last win as World Series MVP, he finally got the men's suit endorsement that eluded him in 1964.He also gained endorsement and sponsorship for his asthma medication, namely Primateme mist inhaler and tablets. 1968—Year of the Pitcher
The 1968 season became known as "The Year of the Pitcher", and <mask> was at the forefront of pitching dominance. His earned run average was 1.12, a live-ball era record, as well as the major

It was the lowest major league ERA since Dutch Leonard's 0.96 mark 54 years earlier. <mask> threw 13 shutouts, three fewer than fellow Nebraskan Grover Alexander's 1916 major league record of 16. He won all 12 starts in June and July, pitching a complete game every time, (eight of which were shutouts), and allowed only six earned runs in 108 innings pitched (a 0.50 ERA). <mask> pitched 47 consecutive scoreless innings during this stretch, at the time the third-longest scoreless streak in major league history.He also struck out 91 batters, and he won two-consecutive NL Player of the Month awards. <mask> finished the season with 28 complete games out of 34 games started. Of the games he didn't complete, he was pinch-hit for, meaning <mask> was not removed from the mound for another pitcher for the entire season. He also only conceded a total of 38 earned runs. <mask> won the National League MVP Award. Not until Clayton Kershaw in 2014 would another National League pitcher do so. With Denny McLain winning the American League's Most Valuable Player award, 1968 remains, to date, the only year both MVP Awards went to pitchers with McLain compiling a 31–6 record for the Detroit Tigers.For the 1968 season, opposing batters only had a batting average of .184, an on-base percentage of .233, and a slugging percentage of .236. <mask> lost nine games against 22 wins, despite his record-setting low 1.12 ERA as the anemic batting throughout baseball included his own Cardinal team.

The Giants' run in that game came on a first-inning home run by light-hitting Ron Hunt—the second of two he would hit the entire season and one of only 11 that <mask> allowed in  innings. The year also was notable for Don Drysdale pitching a record six consecutive shutouts and  consecutive scoreless innings. In Game 1 of the 1968 World Series, <mask> struck out 17 Detroit Tigers to set a World Series record for strikeouts in one game, which still stands today (breaking Sandy Koufax's record of 15 in Game 1 of the 1963 World Series).He also joined Ed Walsh as the only pitchers to strike out at least one batter in each inning of a World Series game, Walsh having done so in Game Three of the 1906 World Series. After allowing a leadoff single to Mickey Stanley in the ninth inning, <mask> finished the game by striking out Tiger sluggers Al Kaline, Norm Cash, and Willie Horton in succession. Recalling the performance, Tigers outfielder Jim Northrup remarked: "We were fastball hitters, but he blew the ball right by us. And he had a nasty slider that was jumping all over the place." <mask> next pitched in Game 4 of the 1968 World Series, defeating the Tigers' ace pitcher Denny McLain 10–1. The teams continued to battle each other, setting the stage for another winner-take-all Game 7 in St. Louis on October 10, 1968.

 seventh, <mask> retired the first two batters before allowing two consecutive singles. Detroit batter Jim Northrup then hit a two-run triple over the head of center fielder Curt Flood, leading to Detroit's Series win. The overall pitching statistics in MLB's 1968 season, led by <mask> and McLain's record-setting performances, are often cited as one of the reasons for Major League Baseball's decision to alter pitching-related rules. Sometimes known as the "Gibson rules", MLB lowered the pitcher's mound in 1969 from  to  and reduced the height of the strike zone from the batter's armpits to the jersey letters. 1969–1975
Aside from the rule changes set to take effect in 1969, cultural and monetary influences increasingly began impacting baseball, as evidenced by nine players from the Cardinals' 1968 roster who had not reported by the first week of spring training due to the status of their contracts. On February 4, 1969, <mask> appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson, and said the Major League Baseball Players Association (MLBPA) had suggested players consider striking before the upcoming season began. However, <mask> himself had no immediate contract worries, as the $125,000 salary <mask> requested for 1969 was agreed to by team owner Gussie Busch and the Cardinals, setting a new franchise record for the highest single-season salary.Despite the significant rule changes, <mask>'s status as one of the league's best pitchers was not immediately affected. In 1969 he went 20–13 with a 2.18 ERA, 4 shutouts, and 28 complete games. On May 12, 1969, <mask> struck out three batters on nine pitches in the seventh

After pitching into the tenth inning of the July 4 game against the Cubs, <mask> was removed from a game without finishing an inning for the first time in more than 60 consecutive starts, a streak spanning two years. After participating in the 1969 All-Star Game (his seventh selection), <mask> set another mark on August 16 when he became the third pitcher in Major League history to reach the 200-strikeout plateau in seven different seasons. <mask> experienced an up-and-down 1970 season, marked at the low point by a July slump where he resorted to experimenting with a knuckleball for the first time in his career.Just as quickly, <mask> returned to form, starting a streak of seven wins on July 28, and pitching all 14 innings of a 5–4 win against the San Diego Padres on August 12. He would go on to win his fourth and final NL Player of the Month award for August (6–0, 2.31 ERA, 55 SO). <mask> won 23 games in 1970, and was once again named the NL Cy Young Award winner. <mask> was sometimes used by the Cardinals as a pinch-hitter, and in 1970 he hit .303 for the season in 109 at-bats, which was over 100 points higher than teammate Dal Maxvill. For his career, he batted .206 (274 for 1,328) with 44 doubles, 5 triples, 24 home runs (plus two more in the World Series), and 144 RBIs, stealing 13 bases and walking 63 times. <mask> achieved two highlights in August 1971.

 career victory.Ten days later, he no-hit the eventual World Champion Pittsburgh Pirates 11–0 at Three Rivers Stadium. Three of his 10 strikeouts in the game were to Willie Stargell, including the game's final out. The no-hitter was the first in Pittsburgh since Nick Maddox at Exposition Park in 1907; none had been pitched in the 62-year (mid-1909-to-mid-1970) history of Three Rivers Stadium's predecessor, Forbes Field. He was the second pitcher in Major League Baseball history, after Walter Johnson, to strike out more than 3,000 batters and the first to do so in the National League. He accomplished this at home at Busch Stadium on July 17, 1974; the victim was César Gerónimo of the Cincinnati Reds. <mask> began the 1972 season by going 0–5 but broke Jesse Haines's club record for victories on June 21 and finished the year with 19 wins. During the summer of 1974, <mask> felt hopeful he could put together a winning streak, but he continually encountered swelling in his knee.In January 1975, <mask> announced he would retire at the end of the 1975 season, admittedly using baseball to help cope with his recent divorce from his former wife, Charline. During the 1975 season, he went 3–10 with a 5.04 ERA. In the eight seasons from 1963 to 1970, <mask> posted a win–loss record of 156–81, for a .658 winning percentage.

Even so, <mask> had good control and hit only 102 batters in his career (fewer than Drysdale's 154). <mask> was surly and brusque even with his teammates.When his catcher Tim McCarver went to the mound for a conference, <mask> brushed him off, saying "The only thing you know about pitching is that it's hard to hit." <mask> casually disregarded his reputation for intimidation, though, saying that he made no concerted effort to seem intimidating. However, there is an interview in which he admits that if a batter homered off one of his best pitches, he would hit that batter in his next at bat. He joked in an interview with a St. Louis public radio station that the only reason he made faces while pitching was because he needed glasses and could not see the catcher's signals. Post-playing career
Before <mask> returned to his home in Omaha at the end of the 1975 season, Cardinals general manager Bing Devine offered him an undefined job that was contingent on approval from higher-ranking club officials. Unsure of his future career path, <mask> declined and used the motor home the Cardinals had given him as a retirement gift to travel across the western United States during the 1975 offseason. Returning to Omaha, <mask> continued to serve on the board of a local bank, was at one point the principal investor in radio station KOWH, and started "Gibson's Spirits and Sustenance" restaurant, sometimes working twelve-hour days as owner/operator.<mask> returned to baseball in 1981 after accepting a coaching job with Joe Torre, who was then manager of the

After Torre and his coaching staff were let go at the end of the 1981 season, Torre moved on to manage the Atlanta Braves in 1982, hiring <mask> as a pitching coach. The Braves proceeded to challenge for the National League pennant for the first time since 1969, ultimately losing to the Cardinals in the 1982 National League Championship Series. <mask> remained with Torre on the Braves' coaching staff until the end of the 1984 season. <mask> then took to hosting a pre- and postgame show for Cardinals baseball games on radio station KMOX from 1985 until 1989. <mask> also served as color commentator for baseball games on ESPN in 1990 but declined an option to continue the position over concerns he would have to spend too much time away from his family.In 1995, <mask> again served as pitching coach on a Torre-led staff, this time returning to the Cardinals.

In 1968 he performed on The Ed Sullivan Show along with his 1968 World Series opponent Denny McLain, an accomplished organist.
