MEMPHIS, Tenn. (BP)--Expressing displeasure over what they call a narrowing of cooperation through exclusionary theological and political agendas in the Southern Baptist Convention, a group of Southern Baptist conservatives issued a document May 3 calling on the convention to repent of such behavior.
Called the Memphis Declaration, the 990-word document is the culmination of two days of discussions involving about 31 Southern Baptists from a variety of perspectives. Much of the concern expressed by participants was motivated by recent developments at the SBCs International Mission Board and with other SBC entities and leaders.
We gathered together in Memphis to share our concerns and articulate our hopes and dreams for the future of the Southern Baptist Convention, said Benjamin Cole, pastor of Parkview Baptist Church in Arlington, Texas, and facilitator of the meeting. Quite frankly, the era of Southern Baptist isolationism is over, and our dialogue helped to begin the process of repentance and reformation in the SBC.
The document, signed by attendees, contains a preamble stating that the group is united in confessing Jesus Christ as the one Lord to whom we must reckon an account for our words and motivations in this gathering. We further acknowledge that the Word of God is the sole basis of our confession and cooperation, and we are confident that God has sufficiently revealed in it all that is needed to direct Southern Baptists in fruitful cooperation toward Kingdom ends that bring glory to Jesus Christ.
Also contained in the declaration are specific points dealing with a variety of issues ranging from repentance of triumphalism about SBC causes to an inattentiveness to convention governance:
The eight points:
1. We publicly repent of triumphalism about Southern Baptist causes and narcissism about Southern Baptist ministries which have corrupted our integrity in assessing our denomination bureaucracy, our churches, and our personal witness in light of the sobering exhortations of Scripture.
Therefore, we commit ourselves to a renewed pledge to integrity demonstrated by accountability in our denomination, both before God and each other, lest in preaching the meekness of our Lord to others we ourselves will be found guilty of wicked, sinful pride.
2. We publicly repent of an arrogant spirit that has infected our partnership with fellow Christians in the advance of the gospel of Jesus Christ, without the hearing of which men are incapable of conversion.
Therefore, we commit ourselves to a renewed pledge to partner with Great Commission Christians for the glory of Jesus Christ, who is proclaimed with power when his disciples are at peace with one another.
3. We publicly repent of having condemned those without Christ before we have loved them, and that we have acted as judge of those for whom Christ died by failing to live with a redemptive spirit toward them.
Therefore, we commit ourselves to engage culture actively at every level by living redemptively as the Body of Christ in the world.
4. We publicly repent of having forsaken opportunities to reason together with those who share our commitment to gospel proclamation yet differ with us on articles of the faith that are not essential to Christian orthodoxy.
Therefore, we commit ourselves to building bridges where there have been none, in listening more and talking less, and in extending the hand of fellowship to all who share our confession of Christ and our commitment to extend His Kingdom.
5. We publicly repent of having turned a blind eye to wickedness in our convention, especially when that evil has taken the form of slanderous, unsubstantiated accusations and malicious character assassination against our Christian brothers.
Therefore, we commit ourselves to confront lovingly any person in our denomination, regardless of the office or title that person holds, who disparages the name of our Lord by appropriating venomous epithets against our brothers and sisters in Christ, and thus divides our fellowship by careless and unchaste speech.
6. We publicly repent of having misplaced our priorities on the building and sustaining of institutions of secondary and far inferior importance than the local church.
Therefore, we renew our pledge to the local church as the primary focus of our ministry and service to advance the Kingdom of God and bring glory to his Son.
7. We publicly repent of having disrespected the sovereign grace of our Lord Jesus Christ by falsely presuming that our strength as a people of God is found in uniformity rather than unity within the parameters of Scriptural authority.
Therefore, we commit ourselves to honor our identity as people of one Lord, one faith, and one baptism, whose affirmation of biblical authority does not necessitate absolute uniformity on all matters of doctrine or practice.
8. We publicly repent of our inattentiveness to convention governance by not seeking to hold trustees accountable to the body which elects them to preserve our sacred trust and direct our entities with the guidance, counsel, and correction necessary to maintain the integrity of those entities.
Therefore, we covenant with one another to assist in the preservation of our conventions sacred trust and fulfill our biblical responsibility to hold those trustees elected to serve our entities accountable, and to pray for them as they seek to fulfill their fiduciary responsibilities.
The declaration concludes:
Finally, we believe the conversations that have begun in these days express our desire to preserve the Southern Baptist Convention should God, in his providence, so choose to sustain our witness and strengthen our commitment to these ends. We pledge, therefore, to one another that we will continue this dialogue by inviting others in our respective spheres of influence to participate with us by seeking to renew our commitment to denominational accountability, institutional openness, moral and ethical integrity, and properly prioritized Kingdom efforts.
Among those in attendance was Wade Burleson, an Oklahoma pastor, IMB trustee and two-time president of the General Convention of Oklahoma Baptists. Burleson criticized IMB policy decisions on his webblog, or blog, prompting the board to recommend his dismissal in January. That action, however, was rescinded in April. Among the other attendees were Tom Ascol, pastor of Grace Baptist Church in Cape Coral, Fla., and executive director of The Founders Conference, a Southern Baptist organization that advocates reformed theology; Wiley Drake, pastor of First Baptist Chruch in Buena Park, Calif., and Marty Duren, pastor of New Bethany Baptist Church, Buford, Ga., and editor of an Internet blog; and Steve Hardy, missions pastor at Calvary Baptist Church in Winston-Salem, N.C., editor of The Conservative Record, a North Carolina Southern Baptist publication; and former IMB trustee Pam Blume, a member of Mt. Vernon Baptist Church in Boone, N.C.
There had been rumors that the group might nominate a candidate for president of the SBC and that motions or resolutions might be forthcoming. No such actions took place, though some attendees have submitted resolutions for consideration by the SBC Resolutions Committee.
We coalesced around no candidate and we drafted no resolution and crafted no motion, Cole said.
Plans call for the group to meet again during the SBCs June 13-14 annual meeting in Greensboro, N.C.

The Pitch: Government Participation Made Easy
(page 1 of 2)
Photo: Rae Huo
Hawaii Policy Portal
Kory Payne
HAWAII POLICY PORTAL FACILITATES LEGISLATIVE TESTIMONY FOR ORGANIZATIONS AND THEIR CONSTITUENTS. Through the portal, the general public can easily submit testimony to the appropriate government committee by filling out an online form and hitting 'send.'
We feel people have become cynical, disenchanted and distrustful of government operations. Our goal is to make information and government functions more transparent. If we can make participation easy and simple, then we feel we can get people re-engaged in the political process and help organizations educate their members on legislative issues.
Organizations sign up at hawaiipolicyportal.org and pay $1,000 for one year of service. The fees are Hawaii Policy Portal's only source of revenue. Organizations must adhere to the Earth Charter (found at earthcharter.org), which provides guidelines and principles for a "sustainable global society founded on respect for nature, universal human rights, economic justice and a culture of peace."Once organizations sign up, they create an advocacy page and add legislative bills they want to track. Organizations follow the status of the bills themselves and send their members e-mails with links to their advocacy pages. Members fill out an online form to submit official testimony.
We are currently looking at tools used at MAPlight.org, a public database linking politicians' voting records and campaign contributions. We would like to have a similar online tool for Hawaii politicians and plan to launch it in September 2009.

Moultrie police hope Surveillance video will help catch a man who tried to rob a Chinese Restaurant.
The masked gunman ambushed employees as they were taking out the trash, but his plan was foiled likely by the brave actions of two employees.
If you are ever involved in an armed robbery police recommend you stay calm and cooperate. But two employees at China cafe saw an opportunity to get away, and they did, despite the risk.
The masked gunman ambushed the workers Wednesday around 9'oclock and forced them back through the kitchen. He made them go to the front of the store but for some reason he got spooked and took off empty handed. Police say it's likely because of these two employee's bold move.
The restaurant was closed to customers, but the drive through window was open. Police suspect the girls saw the gunman before he saw them and that's how they were able to get away.
The girls hopped out the window after they gave the customer her change.
"Of course I'm assuming that's what spooked him," said MPD Cpl. Dale Underwood.
But a vehicle parked at the drive thru window could have spooked him as well. The driver follows the girls. They ran next door to Anytime Fitness for help. Two employees from the gym chased after the masked man but lost him when he ran into the woods.
"They did the smart thing by not going in the woods because you don't know what would of happened," said Underwood.
Now police are hoping someone can identify this man. "Maybe people will see how he is built, how he moves, his gait," said Underwood.
"This guy ain't skinny built," said Underwood.
His muscular build, the way he walks, his unique shirt with a white strip across the chest are three things that stand out.
"We have some very good video and his face wasn't covered. We would know who he is by now."
He also went through a lot of trouble with nothing to show. "Yep, the cash registers were open, but for some reason he got spooked, and he felt the risk was too great to go any further with it."
He's also thankful no one was hurt in a situation that could have turned out a lot worse.
Police say they want to speak with the driver outside the drive thru window during the incident. If you have any information that could help police call the Moultrie Police Department at 229-890-5500.

Get your bay scallop bags and shucking tools ready. The recreational bay scallop season opens in some Gulf of Mexico state waters (shore to 9 nautical miles) starting June 28, three-days earlier than the season was slated to start.
The portion of Gulf state waters is from the Pasco-Hernando county line north and west to the west bank of the Mexico Beach Canal in Bay County.
The season will remain open through Sept. 24, with the first day of the closure on Sept. 25.
Gov. Rick Scott asked the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) to open the 2014 season early to provide additional opportunities to Florida's residents and visitors who flock to the coast to partake in this activity.
The season is an economic draw to the coastal counties within the open region. This change is not expected to harm the scallop population.
All size limits and bag limits remain the same. The bag limit is 2 gallons of whole bay scallops or 1 pint of meat per person, per day, with a vessel limit of 10 gallons of whole bay scallops or a half-gallon of meat. Scallops may be collected by hand or with a landing or dip net.
Scallops cannot be taken ashore outside of the open area.
There is no commercial harvest for bay scallops in Florida.
The average number of scallops observed during 2013's post-season surveys suggests similar or slightly rising abundances for 2014 in Homosassa, St. Joseph Bay and Steinhatchee. The St. Marks average has been decreasing since June 2012, which is most likely due to increased storm runoff in recent years.
FWC has tips to be safe when diving for scallops. Tips include staying within 300 feet of a properly displayed divers-down flag when scalloping in open water and within 100 feet of a properly displayed divers-down flag if on a river, inlet or navigation channel. Boat operators traveling within 300 feet of a divers-down flag in open water or 100 feet of one on a river, inlet or navigational channel must slow to idle speed.
Participants can email email@example.com to ask questions or send additional information.

I love landscape photography. I love urban environments and pastoral settings. So what happens when you bring one into the other and force a dialogue? You get the work of artist Tim Simmons.
Tim developed a series of installations on billboards in Los Angeles and Philadelphia called "The Urban Land Project." He thoughtfully studied each area and selected scenes that juxtapositioned against that particular urban landscape would force a dialogue. His photos are breathtaking, but the layered message makes them even more powerful.
For more on this project and other installations, visit The Anthropologist.

OIL CITY, PA- The Honors Program at Clarion University-Venango Campus recognized students' academic achievements and faculty mentors' contributions to their scholarly growth and development at the semi-annual "Night of Excellence" on Wednesday, December 2, 2009. A reception with light refreshments provided by the Venango Campus Alumni Chapter was held following the presentations.
The Honors Program is a learning community geared toward academic achievement and scholarly pursuits offering students the opportunity to expand intellectual capacities through stimulating coursework, field experiences such as lectures, films, and cultural events, hands-on involvement in community activities and projects, travel opportunities, and merit-based scholarships.
Each semester, Venango Campus Honors Program students present their research findings based on projects completed within their Honors component courses. Each Honors Program student works closely with a faculty mentor in their chosen field to develop their presentations.

Nursing major Kathryn Goodwin of Oil City presented her research project, "The Effects of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus." Ms. Goodwin plans to work in an acute care setting following graduation and is also considering a career as a traveling nurse. Her faculty mentor was nursing instructor Virginia Seybold.

Ms. Hallstrom plans to work in a hospital setting as a registered radiologic technologist. Her faculty mentor was physics professor Dr. Richard Wagner.
Mary Hulse, nursing major from Brookville, presented her research entitled "Examining Dissociative Identity Disorder." Ms. Hulse plans to continue her education, earning a master's degree in nursing to become a nurse educator. Her faculty mentor was psychology professor Dr. Jeanne Slattery.

Ms. Leatherman's faculty mentor was sociology professor Dr. Allan Hunchuk.
Sarah Lewis, a criminal justice major from Rockland, researched "The Art of Criminal Profiling." She plans to pursue a career as a federal agent upon completion of a master's degree. Her faculty mentor was criminal justice professor Dr. Paul Klenowski.

Sellout Risk: Moderate
A pair of Burton Lodi snowboard boots will have any woman, whether a seasoned shredder or they are just learning to stand on a board, feeling comfortable on the mountain. With features like Burton's women's specific fit and custom-moldable liner with foot warmer pockets comfort and warmth are stressed in these boots. They also have a light-weight 3-part liner with air cushioning and a soft-flex shell. This stylish boot will give you the flex, comfort and stability that you need for a great time on the mountain.
Discontinued Colors
I love these boots! I ordered a half size bigger than my shoe size so I could fit thick socks on too and the fit is perfect. They are a little hard to get on but loosen up with a couple of rides. They are also very cute and feminine. I highly recommend them!
This is my first boot for snowboarding and it handled very well, especially since I've done rentals before owning this boot (this is my first season boarding). It is a bit hard to get your foot in but once you do get your foot in, they feel pretty snug. My toes don't curl and my feet do not feel restricted. I'd recommend this boot.

BEAUMONT, Texas, (UPI) — The soldier accused in the 2009 shooting at Fort Hood, Texas, may have to shave his beard for his upcoming court-martial, a Virginia appeals court ruled.
An army appeals court ruled Thursday a judge is entitled to order Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan to appear clean shaven at his court-martial, the Los Angeles Times reported.
Hasan, 42, is an U.S.-born Muslim and began growing a beard in jail. He has said he believes he is close to death and that shaving now would be a sin.
Military prosecutors say Hasan grew the beard to make it more difficult for witnesses to identify him at trial, as the suspect shaved during his time in the army.
The court's decision came after victims of the attack released a video calling for the massacre to be deemed an act of terrorism.
"It's disgraceful that they don't want to recognize the soldiers for their sacrifice. I mean, they were fighting a domestic enemy, they were killed and wounded by a domestic enemy, somebody who was there that day to kill soldiers and prevent them from deploying," Staff Sgt. Shawn Manning, who was shot six times during the attack, says in the video. "If that's not an act of terrorism, I don't know what is."
If convicted for the Nov. 5, 2009, attack in which 13 people were killed and more than 20 people injured, Hasan faces the death penalty or life in prison without parole.

Getting Ready for National Women's History Month 2014
If we dont promote womens history, who will?
March is National Womens History Month
Here are a few suggestions for getting ready for celebrating National Women's History Month in your community:
Ask your children's teacher what is planned for National Women's History Month
Suggest that your local newspaper, radio and TV programs honor teachers.
Email a copy of our 2014 Press Kit, which you'll find in the Women's History Month section on our website, to your local newspapers, radio stations, your organization's newsletter editor, commentators on talk radio, and TV programs like Oprah, Ellen, Tyra, Rachel Ray or any of the morning show programs. Give them as much information as possible and help them spread the word.
Order the Celebrating Women of Character, Courage, and Commitment electronic logo or stickers and include it on all your correspondence, planning, and program material.
Plan a reception, luncheon, or event that honors women in your community who are pioneering roles models whose lives need to be part of the historic record.
Invite a woman from history to be at your celebration program. See the NWHP listings of Women's History Performers. There may be a performer in your community that you can plan a special program with or one of the listed State or National Performers can travel across the country to be at your event.
Invite a special speaker. See the NWHP listings of Authors and Presenters or Our Distinguished Speakers Bureau these presenters can make history come alive with their intellect and enthusiastic presentation about a specific area of women's History. Contact your local high school or college and ask one of their most dynamic teachers in the fields of science, technology, engineering, or math (STEM) to come and speak to your group about the importance of these fields in the 21st century.
Order a copy of the Bio Booklet/Speech for March 2014 from our webstore to read at your event. You can also order a copy sent via email.
Remember you are welcome to use all the information posted on the www.nwhp.org site. Please credit the site whenever possible.

Must reading, as always, here. The abstract:
Liberal academics and newspapers have proclaimed that the Rehnquist Court and conservative intellectuals are attempting to resurrect a pre-New Deal "Constitution in Exile." This absurd campaign illustrates the intellectual impoverishment of what now passes for "progressive" constitutional thought. Still, liberals are right in suggesting that conservatives may not have thought as sharply and constructively about constitutionalism as they should. This Outlook discusses the liberal constitutional project. The next Outlook will outline a conservative response.

This was our first time in East Troy. The town is very nice, with a sweet town square area and other amenities close by. We loved the Pickwick Inn! Dave and Jane are incredible hosts, very kind and generous. They are very knowledgeable about the area and offered many recommendations of things to do during our stay. We would wholeheartedly recommend this inn to anyone, and plan to stay there again during our next visit to the area.

My sister & I stayed in 4 different bed and breakfasts during our trip. We loved our stay here! Jane is a wonderful hostess and cook! We had a farm style, farm sized breakfast on the wonderful screened porch. It was so good and just what we needed on a cool, rainy morning. The room we stayed in (Charles Dickens) was lovely & complete with a fireplace (not cool enough to try it out).&, private bath. Down the hall was a stocked fridge & breakfast bars to snack on. We both enjoyed a tv downstairs in the family room. I highly recommend this inn!

My husband and I - sadly - never got to physically stay here due to some travel mix ups on our end. However, the Pickwick Inn's customer service ALONE is enough to give this lovely Inn a 5 star rating. The Inn keepers were more than helpful to talk to us about reservations and work around our odd travelling/ check in times, and when we had to cancel last minute they made it easy for us and were extremely understanding. The same time that we were planning on staying here our relatives were! They said that their room and atmosphere, food, service, etc was incredible and they loved their experience with Pickwick Inn as well! We highly recommend staying here and hope these lovely people the best!

The Louise May Alcott room was enchanting and the hosts were very friendly and helpful. Enjoyed the enclosed porch with the wooden swing! The breakfasts were delicious. We will definitely visit here again!

The High Line Rink
The Lot was a temporary public plaza below the High Line with free events, family activities, an outdoor bar, food trucks and more for the summer of 2011.
Sunday, September 25, 2011 was the final day The Lot on Tap and the High Line Rink were open to the public. The Lot was always envisioned as a single season amenity to celebrate the new section of the High Line. Now that the site is closed, we expect the site's owners, The Related Companies and Abington Properties, will begin preparing the site for future development.
We are grateful to The Related Companies and Abington Properties for donating the space for use this summer, to AOL and UNIQLO for their support and vision, and Colicchio & Sons and United Skates of America for their partnership in operating the site.

Using Rule Space and Poset-Based Adaptive Testing Methodologies to Identify Ability Patterns in Early Mathematics and Create a Comprehensive Mathematics Ability TestDouglas Clements, University of Denver
This project will develop a new assessment for children ages 3-7 to provide teachers with diagnostic information on a child's development of mathematics facility on ten domains such as counting, sequencing, adding/subtracting, and measurement. The Comprehensive Research-based Mathematics Ability (CREMAT) is being developed using innovative psychometric models to reveal information about children on specific attributes for each of the 10 domains.
Videocases for Science Teaching Analysis Plus (ViSTA Plus): Efficacy of a Videocase-Based, Analysis-of-Practice Teacher Preparation ProgramKathleen Roth, Biological Sciences Curriculum Study, Inc. (BSCS)
The new ViSTA Plus study explores implementation of a program for pre-service/beginning teachers that is fully centered on learning from an analysis-of-practice perspective, addressing the central research question of "What is the value of a videocase-based, analysis-of-practice approach to elementary science teacher preparation?" The project is producing science-specific, analysis-of-practice materials to support the professional development of teacher educators and professional development leaders using the ViSTA Plus program at universities and in district-based induction programs.
Virtual Learning Communities: An Online Professional Development Resource for STEM TeachersMeg Schleppenbach Bates, University of Chicago
This project will design, develop, and test a virtual learning community (VLC) to enhance the ability of first- and fourth-grade teachers to provide mathematics education. The goal is to produce a prototype of a VLC for first- and fourth-grade Everyday Mathematics teachers that integrates three primary elements: (a) learning objects rooted in practice, such as lesson video, (b) community-building tools offered by the internet, and (c) focused content that drives teachers' professional learning in mathematics.
Visualizing to Integrate Science Understanding for All Learners (VISUAL)Marcia Linn, University of California, Berkeley
This project is exploring how curricula and assessment using dynamic, interactive scientific visualizations of complex phenomena can ensure that all students learn significant science content. Dynamic visualizations provide an alternative pathway for students to understand science concepts, which can be exploited to increase the accessibility of a range of important science concepts. Computer technologies offer unprecedented opportunities to design curricula and assessments using visual technologies and to explore them in research, teaching, and learning.
WeInvestigate: Collaborative Exploration of Scientific Phenomena with the Assistance of Hand-Held Simulations, Prose, and GraphicsAnnemarie Palincsar, University of Michigan
This project aims to assist in the development and study of WeInvestigate, an application that will run on a mobile device. The application will help support learners as they engage in artifact construction using multiple media while two or more learners can be synchronously collaborating either face-to-face or at a distance. WeInvestigate is leveraging the research that learning in collaboration with others associated...
Workshop on Assessment of 21st Century SkillsStuart Elliott, National Academy of Sciences
This project will hold a two-day workshop on assessing 21st century skills building on two previous workshops. The previous workshops expressed the need for assessments that can measure the attainment of 21st century skills. This workshop is to describe research on assessment of 21st century skills to inform policies and practices.
Zydeco: A Mobile "Nomadic Inquiry" System to Support and Bridge Science Inquiry Between Classroom and Museum ContextsChris Quintana, University of Michigan
This project will explore how new mobile and web-based technologies can support content-rich nomadic inquiry; that is, science inquiry that takes place on-the-go, across integrated K-12 formal and informal settings. Students will begin the inquiry process in the classroom using curricular activities and the Zydeco web software developed in the project to help define goals and questions and to design data collection strategies and categories for use on a field trip to an informal setting.

Dilution, diversification and hedging allow you to (hope to) eliminate the risk of an individual risky security. The return of the resultant diluted diversified hedged portfolio should then be the riskless return. This constraint determines the expected return of the risky security.

Tri-State Women's Rugby Homepage
Complete Game Notes In PDF
Sunday, September 16, 2012 – 1 p.m.
Quinnipiac University Bobcats (2-0) (0-0 Tri-State) vs.
SUNY New Paltz (0-1) (0-0 Tri-State)
QU Rugby Field – Hamden, Conn.
Hosting the Hawks
The Bobcats host their first home game of the season when the Hawks of SUNY New Paltz visit the QU Rugby Field in Hamden, Conn. on Sunday, Sept. 16 at 1 p.m. Quinnipiac is coming off of a huge win against Binghamton on Sept. 9 where the Bobcats defeated the Bearcats, 91-0, which was the largest margin of victory in program history.
All- Time Against New Paltz
This match-up will mark the second meeting between these two programs. The Bobcats are 1-0 all-time against the Hawks. Their last match up was Sept. 25 when Quinnipiac earned their first win in program history, 15-5.
Bobcats Brawl
In last Sunday's win, 12 Bobcats posted points to crush Binghamton, 91-0. The team effort helped lead Quinnipiac to the largest win in program history. Raechel Stimson posted the first try of her career while Kristin Orrico led the team with 24 points while also going 8-for-15 on conversions. Shannon Durkin, Elisa Cuellar and Allison Gnys combined for seven tries, with Cuellar also adding an assist. Freshman Devon Vieira, Tensi Phillips, Jennifer Salomon, Jacqueline Maclearie, Nancy Dunn, Colleen Doherty and Katie Wood all had one try a piece.
2012-13 Season Preview Rugby
Head coach Becky Carlson returns for a second season in 2012, bringing along 16 players from last year's roster. The Bobcats joined the Metropolitan New York Rugby Football Union (MetNY), now known as Tri-State Rugby Conference, at the beginning of last year and became just the second Division I program in NCAA history. Now with one season under their belts, the Quinnipiac University women's rugby team looks to improve upon a promising inaugural campaign. In her first season with the Bobcats, Coach Carlson led the Bobcats to a 3-6-1 record, which included the program's first victory at SUNY-New Paltz. Under Carlson's tutelage, the Bobcats posted a 3-2-1 record and finished in third place in the Metropolitan New York Rugby Football Union (MetNY) standings. Carlson also guided the Bobcats to their first win at the QU Rugby Field with a 23-7 win over Marist. Quinnipiac must replace two of their top-four scorers from last season in graduating seniors Stephanie Hasher and Alysha Andrews, but return a solid core especially in the back line where Colleen Doherty, Elisa Cuellar, Shannon Durkin all provided standout years last season.
About Tri- State Rugby Conference
Metropolitan New York Rugby Football Union, made the change to the Tri-State Rugby Conference in the summer of 2012. The Conference believes that education through sport and inter-collegiate competition play a vital role in a student's personal development. Quinnipiac will play in the Tri-State Rugby Conference, which is the home to Marist, Vassar, Rutgers, Binghampton, Albany, SUNY New Paltz, SUNY Stony Brook, and Hofstra.

God in Abrahamic religions
|This article or section possibly contains previously unpublished synthesis of published material that conveys ideas not attributable to the original sources. (September 2010)
|Part of a series on

|In particular religions
|Experiences and practices
|Related topics
Judaism, Christianity, and Islam are sometimes called Abrahamic religions because they all accept the tradition that God revealed himself to the patriarch Abraham. The theological traditions of all Abrahamic religions are thus to some extent influenced by the depiction of the God of Israel in the Hebrew Bible, and the historical development of monotheism in the history of Judaism.
The Abrahamic God in this sense is the conception of God that remains a common attribute of all three traditions. God is conceived of as eternal, omnipotent, omniscient and as the creator of the universe. God is further held to have the properties of holiness, justice, omni-benevolence and omnipresence. Proponents of Abrahamic faiths believe that God is also transcendent, meaning that he is outside space and outside time and therefore not subject to anything within his creation, but at the same time personal and involved, listening to prayer and reacting to the actions of his creatures.
The development of monotheism during Classical Antiquity was a process of complex interaction between philosophical and religious traditions, specifically between the philosophical monotheism of The One in Platonism and the strict monolatrism of Second Temple Judaism, giving rise to syncretized traditions such as Hellenistic Judaism.
The split between Pharisaic/Rabbinic Judaism and Early/Proto-orthodox Christianity was a slowly growing chasm between Christians and Jews in the first centuries of the Christian Era. Even though it is commonly thought that Paul established a Gentile church, it took centuries for a complete break to manifest. However, certain events are perceived as pivotal in the growing rift between Christianity and Judaism. Some scholars propose a model which envisions a twin birth of Proto-Orthodox Christianity and Rabbinic Judaism rather than a separation of the former from the latter. For example, Robert Goldenberg asserts that it is increasingly accepted among scholars that "at the end of the 1st century CE there were not yet two separate religions called Judaism and Christianity."[1]
Daniel Boyarin proposes that nascent Christianity and Judaism in late antiquity were intensely and complexly intertwined. The theological split of Judaism and Christianity was complete with the development of the Athanasian Creed during the 4th century and its widespread adoption as Christian orthodoxy by the 6th century. The radical monotheism of Islam (tawhid) as formulated in the 7th century is a reaction to the preceding centuries of Christological debate. The Qur'an makes this explicit by commenting on Christian doctrine, as in
And they (Christians) say: Allāh has begotten a son (children or offspring). Glory be to Him (Exalted be He above all that they associate with Him). Nay, to Him belongs all that is in the heavens and on earth, and all surrender with obedience (in worship) to Him.—Qur'an, sura 2:116
For this reason, early Islam was long considered one of many Christological heresies in medieval Christianity, for example by John of Damascus (born c. 676) in his Fount of Wisdom.[2] It was only with the Crusades of the High Middle Ages that Islam came to be considered a separate religion.
Contemporary religion[edit]
The conception of God in Rabbinical Judaism is strictly monotheistic. The god of Israel in the Torah is known by two principal names, YHWH being God's personal name, used when God is depicted as an active character, while Elohim is used when God is depicted more as an impersonal or abstract principle. However according to the documentary hypothesis whilst the hypothetical Jahwist source; the hypothetical Deuteronomist, Elohist, and Priestly source documents all contain numerous uses of the personal name Yahweh, the Jahwist source document is the only one to use the personal name Yahweh prior to Exodus 3.[3] The proper name YHWH, probably historically Yahweh, came to be avoided for tabuistic reasons in Second Temple Judaism, around the 3rd or 2nd century BC. From that time, occurrence of the name in scripture was replaced by Adonai "my Lord" in liturgy.
Christianity originated within the realm of Second Temple Judaism and thus shares most of its beliefs about God, including his omnipotence, omniscience, his role as creator of all things, his personality, Immanence, transcendence and ultimate unity and supremacy, with the innovation that Jesus of Nazareth is considered to be in one way or another, the fulfillment of ancient prophecy or the completion of the Law of the prophets of Israel.
Most Christian denominations believe Jesus of Nazareth to be the incarnation of God as a human being, which is the main theological divergence with respect to Judaism and Islam. Although personal salvation is implicitly stated in Judaism, personal salvation by grace and a recurring emphasis in right beliefs is particularly emphasized in Christianity, often contrasting this with a perceived over-emphasis in law observance as stated in canon Jewish law, where it is contended that a belief in an intermediary between man and God is against the Noahide laws, and thus not monotheistic.
For most Christians, beliefs about God are enshrined in the doctrine of Trinitarianism, which holds that the three persons of God together form a single god. The doctrines were largely formalized at the Council of Nicea and are enshrined in the Nicaene creed. The Trinitarian view emphasizes that God has a will, and that God the Son has two wills, divine and human, though these are never in conflict but joined in the hypostatic union. However, this point is disputed by Oriental Orthodox Christians, who hold that God the Son has only one will of unified divinity and humanity, a doctrine known as Miaphysitism.
A small minority of Christians hold non-trinitarian views, largely coming under the heading of Unitarianism.

Allah Jalla Jalaluhu
in Arabic calligraphy
In Islam, God is believed to be the only real supreme being, all-powerful and all-knowing creator, sustainer, ordainer, and judge of the universe.[4][5] Islam puts a heavy emphasis on the conceptualization of God as strictly singular (tawhid).[6] He is unique (wahid) and inherently one (ahad), all-merciful and omnipotent.[7] According to the Qur'an there are 99 Names of God (al-asma al-husna lit. meaning: "The best names") each of which evoke a distinct characteristic of God.[8][9] All these names refer to Allah, the supreme and all-comprehensive divine Arabic name.[10] Among the 99 names of God, the most famous and most frequent of these names are "the Most Gracious" (al-rahman) and "the Most Merciful" (al-rahim).[8][9]
Creation and ordering of the universe is seen as an act of prime mercy for which all creatures sing his glories and bear witness to his unity and lordship. According to the Qur'an, "No vision can grasp Him, but His grasp is over all vision. He is above all comprehension, yet is acquainted with all things" (Qur'an 6:103).[5]
God in Islam is not only majestic and sovereign, but also a personal god: According to the Qur'an, he is nearer to person than person's jugular vein. He responds to those in need or distress whenever they call him. Above all, he guides humanity to the right way, the "straight path".[11]
Islam teaches that God is the same god worshipped by the members of other Abrahamic religions such as Christianity and Judaism (29:46).[12] This is not universally accepted by non-Muslims, as Islam denies the divinity of Jesus Christ as a son of God, Islam views that God does not have any offsprings or descendants, he created all things including prophets such as Jesus Christ. Most Muslims today believe that the religion of Abraham (which now split into Judaism, Christianity, and Islam) are of one source, which is The Almighty God.
In the Mormonism represented by most of Mormon communities (including The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints), God means Elohim (the Father), whereas Godhead means a council of three distinct gods; Elohim, Jehovah (the Son, or Jesus), and the Holy Spirit. The Father and Son have perfected, material bodies, while the Holy Spirit is a spirit and does not have a body. This conception differs from the traditional Christian Trinity; in Mormonism, the three persons are considered to be physically separate beings, or personages, but united in will and purpose.[13] As such, the term Godhead differs from how it is used in traditional Christianity. This description of God represents the orthodoxy of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), established early in the 19th century. However, the Mormon concept of God has expanded since the faith's founding in the late 1820s.
Bahá'í Faith[edit]
The Bahá'í writings describe a monotheistic, personal, inaccessible, omniscient, omnipresent, imperishable, and almighty God who is the creator of all things in the universe.[14][15] The existence of God and the universe is thought to be eternal, without a beginning or end.[16]
Though transcendent and inaccessible directly, God is nevertheless seen as conscious of creation, with a will and purpose that is expressed through messengers termed Manifestations of God.[14] The purpose of creation is for the created to have the capacity to know and love its creator,[17] through such methods as prayer, reflection, and being of service to humankind.[18] God communicates his will and purpose to humanity through intermediaries, known as Manifestations of God, who are the prophets and messengers who have founded religions from prehistoric times up to the present day.[19]
The Manifestations of God reflect divine attributes, which are creations of God made for the purpose of spiritual enlightenment, onto the physical plane of existence.[20] In the Bahá'í view, all physical beings reflect at least one of these attributes, and the human soul can potentially reflect all of them.[21] The Bahá'í view rejects all pantheistic, anthropomorphic, and incarnationist beliefs in God.[14]

A charred shell is all that remains of the Gulliver's Doggie Daycare bus.
"The entire top of it was gone, absolutely gone. It was just engulfed in flames," said Heather Habberfield, the assistant manager at Gulliver's.
Police say a possible mechanical failure led the bus to catch fire Tuesday in South Burlington with driver John Thamman and two dogs on board.
"It was probably the most horrifying events that I have ever been through," Habberfield said. "It was just complete chaos."
Thamman battled the flames and got one of the dogs out alive.
"It was horrifying. It was beyond our worst nightmares, I mean, these dogs are our family," Habberfield said.
The second dog, a chorkie, did not make it, despite the bus driver's efforts.
"He got burned on his back, on his head, his hands, trying to rescue the other dog, but the fire was just too fast," said Amanda Poquette, the general manager of Gulliver's.
The team at Gulliver's routinely watches up to 100 dogs a day here at its Williston headquarters.
"We care more about these dogs than anything else. That's why we are here; that is why we do this," Habberfield said.
For them the loss means more than just one fewer client.
"He was very spirited, always wanted to play. We often had a hard time catching him," Habberfield said.
"He was a small dog. He had a bunch of small dog friends. So, he will definitely be missed," Poquette said.
Wednesday staff members were thinking of the family who lost one of their own. The company did not release the name of the chorkie or its owner.
"We get to see a lot of different dogs and a lot of different families, and for this to happen to anybody, it's awful," Poquette said.
They were thankful for one of theirs who did his best to rescue man's best friend.
"John was just amazing," Habberfield said. "We couldn't have asked anything more of him ever."
Gulliver's insurance company is still working on its investigation into the fire. Right now the company is using a second bus to shuttle dogs to and from the day care.

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. (WSAU) -- The student that was shot and killed at Purdue University Tuesday was from Wisconsin. Police say 21-year-old Andrew Boldt from West Bend was a senior working as a teaching assistant in the university's Electrical Engineering Building at about 12:00 noon.
A suspect is in custody. Police apprehended 23-year-old Cody Cousins of Warsaw, Indiana on a murder charge. Investigators do not believe this was a random shooting. They believe Boldt was specifically targeted by the gunman.
Boldt would have graduated from Purdue's school of engineering later this year.

Unintentional Injury Statistics
Preventing Unintentional Injuries
Potential Emergency Situations and Conditions
Trauma is defined as a physical injury or wound caused by an external force of violence, which may cause death or permanent disability. The word is also used to describe severe emotional or psychological shock or distress.
Most of us recognize a traumatic injury or a person in distress when we see one, and we are able to call for immediate medical assistance. But, what about those injuries and illnesses we are not sure qualify as traumas or emergencies? It is important to learn and recognize when immediate medical care is necessary and when the condition can be managed ourselves.
Being prepared and knowing how to react ahead of time could prevent a situation from becoming an emergency. And, learning how to respond to conditions and illnesses properly could make the difference between a potentially fatal outcome and a treatable, manageable situation.
Learn the local emergency numbers in your area and always ask for help in any medical situation you are unsure about - it could make the difference between life and death.
