Innocence of Muslims
Ang "Innocence of Muslims"[1][2] (na kilala rin bilang Muhammad Movie Trailer at The Real Life of Muhammad) ay isang anti-Islam na video na isinulat at nilikha ni Nakoula Basseley Nakoula gamit ang pangalang "Sam Bacile".[3][4][5] [6][7][8] [9][10] Ang mga clip ay unang in-upload sa Youtube noong Hulyo 2012 sa ilalim ng titulong The Real Life of Muhammad at Muhammad Movie Trailer.[11] Ang mga video na dinub sa wikang Arabiko ay in-upload noong pagsisimula ng Setyembre 2012[12] [13] Noong Setyembre 9, 2012, ang isang bahagi ng video sa Youtube ay ipinalabas sa Al-Nas TV na isang Islamista na estasyong telebisyon sa Ehipto.[14][15] Ang mga demonstrasyon at marahas na mga protesta sa mga diplomatikong misyon ng Estados Unidos ay sumiklab noong Setyembre 11, 2012 sa Ehipto at Libya at kumalat sa ibang mga bansang Muslim at ilang mga kanluraning bansa. Ayon sa Estados Unidos at mga opisyal ng Libya, may isang armadong pag-atake sa diplomatikong misyon ng Estados Unidos na nagsanhi ng kamatayan ng ambassador ng Estados Unidos na si J. Christopher Stevens at iba pang Amerikano gayundin ang pagsunog sa embahada ng Estados Unidos sa Libya. [16][17] Ang trailer ng pelikulang ito ay inilarawan ng Reuters na naglalarawan kay Muhammad "bilang isang ulol, babaero, at isang pekeng relihiyoso" at nagpakita sa kanya na nakikipagtalik. [18]

- ↑ The title used here is not an actual film production known to exist, or any official trailer or clip released by the confirmed production company. The title given has become the common name referenced by media outlets after interviews by several figures surrounding this subject to describe the overdubbed clips uploaded to YouTube. Lucas Kavner of the Huffington Post reports: "What we know about Bacile and his film comes solely from his own mouth." In the report, Amy Lemisch (Director of the California Film Commission) stated to The Huffington Post: "[N]o permits were given to anyone by the name of "Sam Bacile," nor to any project with the title of Muslim Innocence or The Innocence of Muslims." she also stated "We went to our internal database field... and we searched under 'innocence' or 'Muslims,' and we did not issue a permit for it."[1]
- ↑ On Thursday, September 20, 2012, FilmLA released a redacted version of the LA County film permit. The title given was "Desert Warriors" and named Media for Christ as the production company. The one-day permit had a cost of $1,195 and allowed for location shooting at Blue Cloud Ranch with a crew of 20 and a similar amount of cast members. No names were shown. The permit allowed live animals, torches and burning barrels to simulate a structural fire.[2]

FSU Basketball At A Glance: The Ferris State women's basketball squad hosts the Gannon Golden Knights Thursday, Jan. 17, starting at 6 p.m. (EST) inside Jim Wink Arena in Big Rapids, Mich. FSU then takes on the Mercyhurst Lakers Saturday, Jan. 19, with tipoff set for 1 p.m. (EST) at Wink Arena. Both are Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (GLIAC) contests and will be the first game of a women's and men's league doubleheader.
Media Coverage: Both games will be carried live on Bulldog Radio, which can heard on television channel 21 via Charter Communications in Mecosta County or online at www.bulldogradio.org. In addition, a live video and audio webcast will be available for both contests through B2 Networks for a $6 fee and can be found on the FSU athletics website at www.ferris.edu/sports (click on B2 Networks icon). Live internet statistics will also be available via the FSU website.
Ticket Info: Tickets for all 2007-08 Ferris home basketball games are available at the door starting one hour prior to tipoff. All single-game general admission ticket prices are $7. FSU students are admitted free with ID. Call (231) 591-2860 for more info on home ticket sales.
About Ferris State: Ferris State University is a NCAA Division II school located in Big Rapids, Mich., with an enrollment of 12,578. The Bulldogs are a member of the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (GLIAC). Big Rapids is located in West Michigan approximately 60 miles north of Grand Rapids or 40 miles west of Mount Pleasant, Mich.
Hit The Road: Following Saturday's game against Mercyhurst, the Bulldogs embark on their two longest GLIAC road trips in back-to-back weeks. FSU heads to Michigan's Upper Peninsula next week for games at Northern Michigan (Jan. 24) and Michigan Tech (Jan. 26) before making a trek to Ohio the following week for contests at Ashland (Jan. 31) along with Findlay (Feb. 2). After the two trips, the Bulldogs will play four of their final six GLIAC games inside the confines of Wink Arena.
Dawgs Getting Votes: FSU was listed among other schools receiving votes in this week's (Jan. 15) USA Today/ESPN/Women's Basketball Coaches Association Division II Top 25 poll. The Bulldogs earned 15 points. No GLIAC schools were listed in the top 25 poll although Michigan Tech, Hillsdale and Gannon also received votes.
Narrow Home Loss: The Northwood women's basketball team finally snapped a Bulldog jinx as the Timberwolves ended a 24-game series' losing streak by defeating Ferris 68-64 in league play this past Monday (Jan. 14) evening inside FSU's Jim Wink Arena. The Timberwolves took a 34-27 halftime lead and held on for its first win over FSU since posting a 78-74 home win on Feb. 25, 1995, in Midland, Mich. The setback was also the first in 20 meetings against the Timberwolves for 10th-year Bulldog head coach Tracey Dorow. Additionally, Monday's triumph marked only the fifth time since the two teams first met in 1979 that the Timberwolves beat Ferris on its home floor and it also represented the first-ever win at the new Jim Wink Arena for Northwood. Ferris previously had swept NU 11 consecutive years in GLIAC action. Ferris' three-game winning streak was halted as the Bulldogs fell to 10-5 overall this year with NU improving to an identical 10-5 on the season. The Northwood win came despite a game-high 20 points and 10 rebounds from FSU senior forward/center Rachel Folcik (Powers/Carney-Nadeau). Bulldog junior guard Teghan Thelen (Pewamo/Westphalia) chipped in 15 points but was the only other FSU player to reach double-figure scoring. The Timberwolves shot only 37.5% (24-64) from the floor in the triumph. However, they also forced 24 Bulldog turnovers and shot 15-of-18 (83.3%) from the free throw line.
Big Win Over GVSU: Ferris used a late run to topple archrival Grand Valley State 62-59 last Saturday (Jan. 12) evening inside the GVSU Fieldhouse Arena at Allendale, Mich. The Bulldogs trailed by five, 59-54, with 2:23 to play before scoring the final eight points of the contest. Rachel Folcik led FSU with a game-high 18 points and 10 rebounds.
Last Campaign: The FSU women's squad returns three starters and eight letterwinners from one of the most successful seasons in school history. Ferris State, which advanced to the NCAA-II Great Lakes Regional Championship Game for the first time ever last season, was ranked 25th nationally in the final 2006-07 USA Today/ESPN NCAA Division II Top 25 Poll. The Bulldogs, who prior to last year had never won a NCAA Tournament game, recorded back-to-back wins in their first two national tournament contests en route to the regional runner-up finish. Ferris also compiled a second-place tying 13-5 GLIAC regular-season finish and earned the program's eighth consecutive GLIAC Tournament bid.
This Season: The FSU women's squad returns three starters and eight letterwinners from last season's spectacular NCAA Tourney run. FSU's roster this season also includes seven freshmen, six of whom are new to the program as true freshmen.
Head Coach Tracey Dorow: Tenth-year FSU head coach Tracey Dorow (formerly Tracey Bloodworth-Fisk) presently ranks as Ferris' all-time winningest coach with a current 168-102 (.622) career record at Ferris State. A 1996 graduate of Western Michigan, she guided FSU to a 22-7 mark and the school's first NCAA-II Great Lakes Regional Tourney appearance during the 1999-00 campaign. She spent three seasons as an assistant coach at Lake Michigan College (1994-97) and one season at Indianapolis (1997-98). She also directed FSU to an NCAA Tourney berth in 2003-04 before last season's run to the Sweet Sixteen.
B2 Broadband Webcasts: A live broadband video and audio webcast will be available via B2 Networks for all of FSU's home games this season. The cost is $6 per game and includes live video along with a radio audio feed. To access the service or obtain more info, please visit the FSU Athletics Website at www.ferris.edu/sports.
Live Internet Stats: "Live Stats" of all 2007-08 Ferris State home games will be provided in progress via the internet. Visit the site at www.ferris.edu/sports and click the "Live Stats" icon to access.
GLIAC Games On The Air: FSU women's basketball (GLIAC games only) will be carried live this season through a partnership with Bulldog Radio, a registered student organization on the Ferris campus. The station can be heard locally on television Channel 21 both via on-campus cable and Charter Communications in Mecosta County. A live 24-hour webcast of the signal is also available at www.bulldogradio.org. A link is also available on FSU's Athletics Website at www.ferris.edu/sports (under Bulldog Webcasts).
On The Internet: Ferris State University Athletics' official web site can be found at www.ferris.edu/sports. The site features information on all FSU varsity programs including rosters, stats, yearbooks and more.
GLIAC Player Of The Week: Ferris' Rachel Folcik received the GLIAC North Division Player of the Week honor just prior to the holiday break on Dec. 17, which represented the second time this year and eighth time in her career she's claimed the league weekly distinction. Folcik, who previously earned the award this campaign on Nov. 26, led the Bulldogs to their sixth consecutive victory of the season at Lake Superior State (Dec. 15) to claim the award. Folcik attained the league weekly honor six of the final nine times it was awarded in 2006-07.
Nothing New For FSU: A Bulldog player has earned the conference weekly honor three times to date this season as junior Jenna Guay claimed this season's first divisional weekly honor following her performance in the season-opening Quincy (Ill.) Subway Tipoff Tourney (Nov. 16-17) prior to Folcik receiving the same award twice this year.
Bulldog Bites: FSU was the only GLIAC-member women's basketball team to defeat a NCAA Division I foe in exhibition play this preseason as the Bulldogs toppled Central Michigan 83-61 in Mount Pleasant (Nov. 1) ............... Ferris has currently won 18 of its last 25 games dating back to last season ........ Rachel Folcik has notched a double-double (points and rebounds) in 11 games this year, including eight of her last nine outings. FSU holds an 8-3 mark when she notches a double-double this campaign. She needs 12 points to notch her 1,500th career point ....... The Bulldogs are 68-26 (.723) all-time inside Jim Wink Arena ........ FSU was the last remaining GLIAC school still unbeaten in league action this year prior to Monday's setback.
The Bulldog Roster: Ferris' 2007-08 roster includes three seniors, four juniors, one sophomore and seven freshmen. Seven of the 15 players are guards while the remaining eight are frontcourt players. Fourteen of the 15 players on the roster hail from Michigan. Rachel Folcik and Teghan Thelen are serving as the Bulldogs' team captains this season.
Ferris Picked Second: Ferris State was picked to finish second in the 2007-08 GLIAC Women's Basketball North Division Preseason Poll, which was announced during the league's media day teleconference (Oct. 24). The poll was chosen for the first time in league history by selected members of the media and the GLIAC's Sports Information Directors. The 30-member group tabbed Grand Valley State and Gannon to win the conference's North and South Division titles, respectively. In addition to the poll, the league also released a Preseason All-GLIAC Team, which was chosen by the conference's head coaches. FSU's Rachel Folcik was among five individuals named to the North Division team and also chosen as the GLIAC's Preseason Player of the Year.
Moving On Up: FSU's Rachel Folcik currently ranks fourth in school history with 1,488 career points and is only 233 shy of tying Lucy DeMartin's school-record total of 1,721 points at FSU. This season, Folcik currently ranks as the squad's leading scorer (20.6 ppg) and rebounder (10.7 rpg). She's reached double-figure scoring in 14 of 15 contests while posting 11 double-double (points & rebounds) efforts this campaign. The 2006-07 NCAA Division II Kodak/Women's Basketball Coaches Association Honorable Mention All-American was named to both the All-GLIAC North Division and All-Great Lakes Region First Teams last year in addition to the GLIAC North Division All-Defensive Team.
The Bulldog Tradition: The Ferris State women's basketball program, which is midst its 34th season of varsity competition, has compiled a 421-427 (.496) all-time mark. The Bulldogs won their only GLIAC crown, advanced to their first NCAA-II Great Lakes Regional Tournament and
recorded the nation's highest grade point average in 1999-2000. FSU, which claimed GLIAC Tourney runner-up honors in 1999-00, has posted 10 or more victories 11 consecutive seasons.
The Records: Ferris has won three of its last four outings and currently holds a 10-5 record. The Bulldogs are presently 5-1 in the GLIAC. Gannon is tied for the conference's South Division lead with a 5-1 league slate and is 11-4 overall while Mercyhurst presently maintains a 6-10 cumulative record and has dropped five of its six league outings. The Lakers play at Grand Valley State Thursday prior to visiting Ferris.
Series Information: Ferris holds a 11-3 edge entering this Thursday's meeting with Gannon and has won 10 of the last 12 series' contests, including a 80-61 win in last year's NCAA-II Great Lakes Regional Tournament semifinals at Romeoville, Ill. FSU head coach Tracey Dorow currently has a 9-2 career coaching record against the Knights ........... The Bulldogs maintain a 11-2 series advantage with Mercyhurst and beat the Lakers 90-70 last year (1/18/07) in Erie, Pa.
Scouting Gannon: Gannon is presently 11-4 overall and 5-1 in GLIAC action after last Saturday's (Jan. 12) 75-74 league home win over Ashland. The Knights, who compiled a 25-6 overall record in 2006-07, were picked to finish first in the 2007-08 GLIAC South Division Preseason Media Poll following a first-place 15-2 GLIAC mark and a trip to the NCAA-II Regional Semifinals a season ago. Sophomore guard Kristina Freeman presently ranks as GU's leading scorer (15.7 ppg) this season. Gannon has won each of its last five outings to date this campaign. Gannon is led by sixth-year head coach Cleve Wright.
Scouting Mercyhurst: MC is presently 6-10 overall and 1-5 in the GLIAC heading into Thursday's game at GVSU, but posted a 81-78 league home win over Findlay last Saturday (Jan. 12) in Erie, Pa. Mercyhurst, which is led in scoring by freshman forward Amy Achesinski (17.3 ppg), was 6-21 overall in 2006-07 and placed tied for last in the GLIAC's South Division with a 2-15 conference record. The Lakers were picked to finish sixth in this season's South Division media poll. MC has won four of its last six contests entering its weekend trip to Michigan.

Dolphins owner Steve Ross has a habit of chasing the biggest fish in the ocean, and nothing has changed in the franchise's search for its ninth full-time head coach.
The Dolphins are one of three teams that have expressed interest in talking to Sean Payton, according to a source close to the New Orleans Saints' head coach.
The source says the Dolphins job "indeed interests" Payton, but it's a sensitive situation because Payton is under contract with the Saints for another two seasons. To avoid NFL tampering rules, the Dolphins must request and be granted permission before they can formally have a conversation with Payton.
They also would likely need to offer...

This regal goose is an endemic species is also Hawai'i's state bird. has a black head and bill, yellow-buff cheeks, a buff neck with dark furrows, and partially webbed black feet. Its loud calls are similar those of the Canada goose and when disturbed, its call resembles the "moo" of a cow.
Fossil records show that the nēnē was present on all the main Hawaiian Islands in abundant numbers but declined or disappeared due to habitat alteration and predation and introduced animals. It is believed that they were abundant (about 25,000 birds) on the Big Island before the arrival of Captain James Cook in 1778. Scientists believe that the Maui population became extinct before 1890. The decline in numbers was accelerated during the period of 1850 to 1900 due to aggressive hunting of the birds and collecting of their eggs. In 1950, the nēnē population was estimated at only 30 birds. A small population was reintroduced at Kīlauea Point National Wildlife Refuge in the early 1990's. Approximately 1800 nēnē exist in the wild today. The Hawaiian goose is federally protected under the Endangered Species Act.
Their continued decline was attributed to the introduction of alien plants and animals. The nēnē is extremely vulnerable to predation by introduced animals like rats, dogs, cats, mongooses, and pigs. In more recent studies, research shows that continuing decline of the nēnē population in the wild can be attributed to low productivity, perhaps caused by the poor available nutrition in their habitat.
Nēnē frequent scrubland, grassland, golf courses, sparsely vegetated slopes and on Kaua'i, in open lowland country.
Nēnē have a very asynchronous nesting season lasting from August through February. Their nests are down-lined and usually well concealed under bushes. Nēnē prefer nesting in the same nest area, usually under native vegetation. Two to five white eggs are usually laid and the incubation period is 30 days. Nēnē goslings are flightless for about 11 to 14 weeks after hatching. Family groups remain together until the next breeding season.

Just curious what others thoughts are. I always figured they'd get used to it but I'm no expert.
You can do more with a kind word AND a gun than with just a kind word.
Last year I sat in a deer stand watching two does while my neighbors sighted in their rifles and it didn't seem to phase them. I broke a tree branch and they looked right at me.
It can't help!
Shooting and dogs seem to really spook deer.
"Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting that vote." ~ Benjamin Franklin
It's one of those things you can't control, so I don't worry about it. You might not be shooting guns, but your neighbors will be.
I actually shot my first deer ever, with a bow 300 yards from a pistol course as they were running competitive drills. All deer react differently to disturbances depending on their environment.

"In my many years I have come to the conclusion that one useless man is a shame, two is a law firm and three or more is a congress."
-John Adams
I have seen deer out on the range just chilling while Marines were doing our rifle range at Stone Bay. Guess they can get used to it. I still don't think it helps though.
Anyone else sick of working to support those who don't?
Anyone else sick of obeying laws made because idiots don't care about facts?
Anyone else sick of people telling you to be polite about everything?
I'm wondering how we got to this point.
It cant help but I think they know the difference between shooting and being shot at. I live in fairly open country and ive watched deer feed on one side of the farm while pheasant hunters pounded away 300 yards from them. The deer never even looked up.
not deer but when shooting prairie dogs in sd have had speed goats come into a dog town and even lie down for a nap......
Any noises or smells that they become conditioned to, is normal and not associated with danger - that seems to be the key. Deer in urban areas ignore vehicle sounds, deer in isolated areas bolt when vehicles drive in. I hunt in a rural area that has several houses nearby, dogs barking, resident movement that is audible - car doors etc. Normal sounds and they do not alert. But as posted earlier, break a limb - they pay attention.
Makes no difference around me. One of my farms borders a duck hunting club. Every year when the deer get to moving good, WWIII starts from the guys shooting Woodies on the river. Never noticed a difference in movement because of it.
I have a shooting range behind my house and it doesn't bother the deer at all, I guess they just get use to it.
Life's Tough....God's Good....Pray Hard!
This ^^^^^^. I used to manage a horse farm that adjoined the home property of a Winchester factory trap shooter... The deer had no choice but to get used to it !Any noises or smells that they become conditioned to, is normal and not associated with danger - that seems to be the key.

Obsession, Mathews, Spot Hogg, QAD, Ktech, Easton, Carter...
twice in the past I've shot one doe in a herd of them and had 2 others that didn't react at all so I shot one of the others. Never seen that happen with bucks though. I was sitting in my stand once when the Air Force decided to run low altitude mock bombing runs and dog fights early in the morning. Not a deer to be seen for the rest of the morning but one hell of a show!
I don't think the shooting itself makes a difference. I live next to conservation ground that seems to only get traffic during rifle season. The deer are definitely changed by the addition of more people in the timber.
We used to hunt on game land in Butner NC, close to the army reserve artillery training field. The deer were used to it. But, I think folks that go out the day before season comes in to zero their rifle may spook them some.
I learned a valuable lesson last fall. I need to get any big buck I am after before Muzzle loader season opens. One of my great little spots had 4 different bucks moving through it even in the middle of the day. It is only 3 acres but it has two springs on it and plenty of bedding. They use it as a travel corridor. Two of these bucks were deff NC trophies. As soon as the guns started going off on adjoining properties these bucks went completely nocturnal. I still got them on camera but only after dark. Lesson learned...Boom, Booms alarm deer if they are not accustomed to it.
Please be patient,
I am still trying to figure
this mess out.
I think deer are more tuned into the sound of a bullet coming towards them than just general gunfire. It's two distinctly different sounds.
The deer stand in my shooting range eating apples all day. They move into the woods while I shoot and watch while I shoot, then go right back to the apples as soon as I'm done. They are much more concerned by my dogs than my guns.
If it is a shooting range that is regularly used, the deer don't care about it.
We have to chase deer away from the shooting range rather often before we can start the shooting.
Makes zero difference. Biggest buck I ever killed was between two hot duck marshes. They were pounding away that morning. I was close enough to them I could hear most of their conversations.
A creeping vehicle or one that hits the shoulder will booger them up way quicker. Unless your actually shooting at them.
New G5 slogan: Flies like a field point, blood trails like one too.
This is just one of those myths that is hard to actually prove either way. I agree with others that have said it depends on what the deer are used to and their typical environment. Personally, we have had deer come to a feeder behind our house where we hunt not more than 30 mins. after shooting a couple exploding tannerite targets in the front yard. You can always hear random gunfire whethers it's a single rifle boom or someone just plinking out where our property is. The deer are surely used to it and don't pay much attention to it. We bow hunt our property only but shoot guns all the time and see no real difference on weeks where we shoot guns vs. weeks where we refrain from shooting.

It was evident from the moment he stepped out onto the Vatican balcony in plain papal whites upon his election in March and said, "Buona sera" to the boisterous masses that Pope Francis would be different – that he would choose pastoral appeal over pontifical pomp and, as the first non-European pope in more than 1,200 years, would shake up a Catholic church in clear need of reinvigoration.
The 76-year-old Argentine made his first overseas trip last week to Brazil for World Youth Day, where his closing mass in Rio de Janeiro drew a reported three million people, the largest crowd commanded by a pope in nearly 20 years – and nearly three times the showing for the Rolling Stones' storied concert there seven years ago. "This is pope as rock star," said R. Andrew Chesnut, the Bishop Walter Sullivan chair in Catholic studies at Virginia Commonwealth University, who was in Brazil for the event.
But it was Pope Francis's return flight that has caused the greatest stir. Aboard the papal plane, he held an unprecedented, 82-minute, impromptu news conference, offering candid answers to questions on hot-button issues such as homosexuality, female priests, the beleaguered Vatican Bank and his own papal style.
"Who am I to judge?"
"Chi sono io per giudicare?" With those five simple words, Pope Francis made history. In some of the most conciliatory remarks by a pontiff on the issue of homosexuality, the Pope said he won't judge priests for their sexual orientation – even though homosexuality is against church teaching.
"If someone is gay and he searches for the Lord and has goodwill, who am I to judge?" he said. "We shouldn't marginalize people for this. They must be integrated into society."
His decisive statement on such a divisive issue rippled across the world, making headlines for its inclusiveness more than for its immediate, tangible effect: Though his words are being widely dubbed a shift in tone, they don't reflect a shift in church policy, since the universal catechism still maintains that homosexual acts are "intrinsically disordered."
Nonetheless, his remarks drew praise from those who view them as a step toward openness, including California congresswoman Jackie Speier, a Catholic Democrat, who tweeted: "'Who am I to judge?' Thank you, #Pope Francis. As a practicing Catholic, I never doubted this day would come. #LGBT."
Italy's first openly gay governor, Nichi Vendola, told reporters that "in only one blow, [Pope Francis] carried out a very brilliant operation, separating the theme of homosexuality from that of pedophilia," while the president of the Human Rights Campaign in the U.S., Chad Griffin, was more qualified in his praise.
"As long as millions of [lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender] Catholic individuals, couples and youth alike are told in churches big and small that their lives and their families are disordered and sinful because of how they are born – how God made them – then the church is sending a deeply harmful message," he said in a statement.
Making waves among women priests
Although Pope Francis spoke more inclusively of gay people than his predecessors had, his position on female priests echoed those who came before him. He stressed that Pope John Paul II had already "definitively closed the door" to female priests and said the "church has spoken and says no." This decisiveness disappointed people such as Janice Sevre-Duszynska, a female priest who was excommunicated for being ordained nearly five years ago.
"He seems to show compassion and support for the homosexual community, and we would expect he'd also show support for us," said Ms. Sevre-Duszynska, spokeswoman for the Association of Roman Catholic Women Priests. "The people are calling out for women priests."
Although Pope Francis was clear about his views on female priesthood, he also said he hopes for a more prominent place for women in Catholic life. "We cannot limit the role of women in the church to altar girls or the president of a charity – there must be more," he said. "We must go farther in the explicitness of the role and charisma of women living in the church."
For Ms. Sevre-Duszynska, those words rang mostly hollow. "You really need to be a priest in this church, as it's set up now, to have any authority," she said. "We need to have women leaders, and the basis for that comes from priesthood."
Prof. Chesnut said it should come as no surprise that the Pope has chosen to focus on "global south" issues such as poverty and unemployment rather than "global north" issues such as women's rights, in part because the church is hemorrhaging members and Latin America is home to almost half the world's Catholics. "If there's going to be a turnaround, he really needs to be concerned with what's forefront in their preoccupations," Prof. Chesnut said. "And who can blame him?"
Rubbing shoulders with his flock
Pope Francis answered 21 free-flowing questions during his in-flight news conference, while his predecessor was open to but a few, vetted questions. He was pictured carrying his own bag as he boarded the plane to Rio – an unusual breach of Vatican protocol and a far cry from the days when pontiffs were carried around on platforms. ("It's normal" to tote a bag while travelling, he said, adding that inside was a razor, his agenda, a prayer book and a book on St. Thérèse of Lisieux, a saint known for her practical approach to spirituality.)
He chose to forgo Vatican security so he could mingle more directly with the World Youth Day masses, forgoing the bulletproof "popemobile" for a Fiat with windows rolled down so people could reach in and touch him – a side effect of what some have dubbed Franciscomania.
When asked about his car being swarmed after it took a wrong turn in Rio, Pope Francis acknowledged there's a chance a "crazy" person might harm him, but said he prefers "the security of trusting the people" over an armoured car.
"Pope Francis's style is that of a preacher," said Rocco Palmo, a Philadelphia-based Catholic commentator and writer, calling the on-board news conference "remarkable" for its candour. "It speaks to him being a pastor – you have to be compelling and credible in the face of real people."
Prof. Chesnut, who witnessed the Pope's style first-hand in Rio, put it this way: "He was at such ease walking through the [favelas], kissing babies, hugging the people in wheelchairs – that's who he is, unlike his predecessor, who was just so painfully bad at making human contact and connection."
Following the money
In a bold move, Pope Francis has chosen to take on the Vatican Bank – at the centre of several Italian money-laundering investigations – by striking a review commission to determine whether to close or reform the institute.
"I can't say how it will end," he told reporters. "But certainly whatever the [institution] becomes requires transparency and honesty."
Aboard the plane, he also confronted specific questions regarding Monsignor Nunzio Scarano, a Vatican prelate who was arrested in June on suspicion of trying to smuggle €20-million into Italy from Switzerland.
"There are many people [in the Vatican] who are saints, but there are those who are not very saintly … and it pains me when this happens," he said. "There is this monsignor in jail. He didn't go to jail because he resembled the blessed Imelda," he said, playfully using a Latin American expression meaning a person is no saint.
Mr. Palmo said Pope Francis made a commitment to reform the "feared" institution at the outset of his papacy and has even been poking fun at the bank in his unscripted homilies at morning masses. "It's significant," Mr. Palmo said of the review. "He wants every institution of the church and every institution of the Vatican … to reflect the gospel of Jesus Christ and exist with that kind of honesty, authenticity and transparency – every institution, whether it's finance, doctrine, communication, whatever."

Robert Reich: If Occupiers are expelled from specific geographic locations the Occupier movement can shift to broad-based organizing around the simple idea at the core of the movement: It's time to occupy our democracy.
Jamie Dimon's Bizarre Idea About Why Recovery Stalled
Robert Reich: According to JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon, the recovery has stalled because of strict banking regulation. I'm not making this up.
Paul Ryan Still Doesn't Get It
Robert Reich: Republican House Budget chief Paul Ryan still doesn't get it. He blames Tuesday's upset victory of Democrat Kathy Hochul over Republican Jane Corwin to represent New York's 26th congressional district on Democratic scare tactics.
Financial Reform Too Small to Succeed
Joseph Palermo: The financial reform legislation currently winding its way through the Congress is a step in the right direction but it retains too much of the status quo that brought down the economy in the first place. The key problem, as many economists have been telling us, is that the top financial institutions remain "too big to fail." Congress can enact all the regulations it wishes but even the best written rules won't be enough to prevent another financial meltdown.
Goldman Sucks
Tom Degan: It's highly unlikely that any serious reform is going to be put forward until the Republican presence on Capital Hill has been significantly diluted if not eradicated. I do not believe that it is a given that they are going to gain major ground come Election Day. In fact there is every reason to believe that they will only continue to self-destruct between now and then. They can't win without the section of the electorate who describe themselves as "moderate". The moderates are taking a good look at the train wreck that is the modern GOP and by all accounts they're becoming more and more disgusted by what they see.
Break Up the Banks
Robert Reich: As long as the big banks are allowed to remain big, their political leverage over Washington will remain big. And as long as their political leverage remains big, the taxpayer and economic tab for the next mess they create will be big. By all means, give regulators resolution authority and also impose the tightest regulations possible. But Congress and the White House shouldn't stop there. Limits should be placed on how big big banks can become.
Pass the Health Care Bill: Then Improve It
Peter Dreier: It is incredibly irresponsible for some radicals and progressives to call for killing the health care bill. It is important to push for changes that would improve the Senate version of the bill. For example, the House funding plan (a tax on families with incomes over $1 million) is much better than the Senate version (a tax on so-called "Cadillac" health insurance plans). That's what the labor movement, liberal and progressive Democrats in Congress, pro-choice advocates, and others will be doing in hopes of putting a better bill on President Obama's desk, as Harold Meyerson discusses in his latest Washington Post column.
Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty and the 10th Amendment

For months, Mexico's army has gradually moved thousands of troops into territory controlled by the country's largest and arguably most dangerous drug cartel. The mission: kill or capture the top bosses of the Zetas, right in the heart of their prime terrain. Last week the manhunt started paying dividends, as the army took out a senior cartel leader during a major shootout — although it came at the cost of turning a Mexican city into a warzone.
According to local press reports, the hours-long battle began on Thursday in the border city of Nuevo Laredo, when forces loyal to the boss of a major Zetas drug trafficking operation, Gerardo Guerra-Valdez, attacked military personnel moving on the cartel's "command structure." When the military fought back, cartel gunmen began blockading key roads stretching from the city's downtown, near the World Trade Bridge connecting Nuevo Laredo to Texas. They came prepared: included in their convoy was at least one armored vehicle, rocket and grenade launchers, lots of rifles and, predictably, cocaine.
But that was it for Guerra-Valdez. Along with three Mexican soldiers and 13 cartel gunmen, the Zetas boss, who goes by El Guerra or "The War" — yes, really — didn't survive the battle. He was the second-in-command to Miguel Angel Trevino, a former army commando turned top Zetas enforcer, according to the Mexican armed forces.
It's probably too early to draw broad lessons from the shootout for Mexico's war against the cartels. But El Guerra was only eight months on the job — and his predecessor was also killed by the army. The cartels have waged a silent war in Nuevo Laredo — a campaign characterized by nighttime assassinations, kidnappings and attacks on social media users. Finally, the army has scored some successes in its counteroffensive — but for Nuevo Laredo, it may get worse before it gets better, especially as rival gangs move in to capitalize on the Zetas' loss.
El Guerra wasn't dead for three days before more fighting was reported at a strip mall in the city's south side. Gunmen also opened fire inside a Peter Piper Pizza restaurant. Someone even threw a grenade into a Walmart. All those attacks were more conspicuous than usual. "Gerardo," a pseudonymous writer for a website that tracks the drug war, Borderland Beat, said the conflict between the Army and the Zetas "has taken a bloody turn for the worse" — despite El Guerra's death.
Theories abound that the attack could be a sign that forces from the rival Gulf Cartel are moving into the city and "heating up the plaza," in drug war lingo.
If so, they'll find the place heavily fortified. Earlier this year, the Mexican army began building a string of new bases across the Zetas' stomping grounds of Tamaulipas — which includes Nuevo Laredo — to support some 13,000 soldiers currently patrolling the state. This means nearly 30 percent of the Mexican army's counter-cartel troops are fortifying directly in the Zetas' homeland. (More are fighting the Zetas and other cartels elsewhere.) It's a sign that the army sees the Zetas as its top cartel threat.
Four of the new bases will be built in Tamaulipas proper, from a strip of land stretching up the Texas border down to Reynosa and into Mexico's badlands. Another will be in neighboring Nuevo Leon, also Zetas territory. Two more bases will be built elsewhere: one in Chihuahua, where the rival Sinaloa Cartel is strong, and another to the southwest in Michoacan, which has seen the Zetas move in to counter a Sinaloa assault against the declining La Familia Michoacana gang. The plan is to retake areas where "local authorities were overwhelmed by organized crime and drug trafficking," according to the local Excelsior newspaper.
However, whether the build-up in bases and troops will prevent rival cartels from moving in to wreak havoc is uncertain. Mexico's gangsters have shown to be adept at corrupting both government officials and members of the police and military — and have demonstrated the ability to bypass military checkpoints to move drugs and personnel.
Additionally, even if the army manages the arduous tasks of keeping the Zetas down and its rivals out, the basic dynamics fueling the cartels will stay unchanged. Vice President Joe Biden, who's spending this week in Mexico and Honduras, pushed back against calls by Latin American leaders, including Mexico's President Felipe Calderon, to consider "market alternatives" to the drug war. Like, say, decriminalizing or legalizing the cartels' chief source of revenue, thereby undercutting them and removing the need for a costly, bloody war.Go Back to Top. Skip To: Start of Article.

Did anyone go? What kind of goodies did you get?
Welcome to the Quilting Board!
Did anyone go? What kind of goodies did you get?
It was pretty intense. Perhaps a hundred boxes out on the lawn was mostly non quilting stuff. From Xmas to antiques. Then went in the house where the porch was lined with temp shelving covered in boxes of all kinds with little organization also no prices. I pawed around a little and filled a big bag. Then went into the two rooms with misc and around 50 boxes of magazines and books, etc. Again no organizatio and no prices.
I got a big carrier bag of fabric that ended up being around 28+ yards for $15. Then a bunch of patterns and small kit type things for 25 cents each and several books for $1 each. Best buy was a complete kit for a large quilt for $15 that was marked retail $95.
But the messiness and the lack of prices kept me from buying more. Hint for others: if you are selling scraps or pieces and dont want to measure, sell by weight. Faster and easier. I would have bought more.

Our local music community was dealt a devastating blow with the announcement that Brown Bird's David Lamb had succumbed to his second bout with leukemia, at age 36. Lamb passed away at Memorial Hospital in Pawtucket last Saturday while surrounded by friends, family, and longtime musical partner and wife, MorganEve Swain.
In May 2013, Lamb felt ill while on the road in Texas and was diagnosed with leukemia. Fellow musicians and fans around the country chipped in more than $70,000 to assist with Lamb's medical bills. He underwent chemo and a bone marrow transplant over the fall and winter, and positive news came when Swain reported that Dave was in good spirits and ready to begin work on the next album. On March 25, Lamb was informed of the dire news.
David and MorganEve shared an apartment in Warren, where David had previously worked his "fingers to the bone" at a local shipyard before deciding to go all in with Swain and spread their wings full-time as Brown Bird in 2011. Swain and Lamb quit their day jobs, hired a booking agent, and steadily filled rooms behind their breakout album, Salt For Salt. They toured overseas with dear friends the Low Anthem, played sold-out rooms across the country with the Devil Makes Three, Trampled by Turtles, and Joe Fletcher, and a jaw-dropping set at the Newport Folk Fest in '11 garnered a main-stage invite the following year. Two of the best shows I have ever attended were courtesy of headliners Brown Bird — a sold-out at Firehouse 13 in '09, and a wild one at the Met in 2011. Lamb was all smiles behind his woolly beard, simultaneously operating a kickdrum, tambourine, and banjo, with Swain by his side adding warm tones with deft cello and double-bass skills.
A week before Christmas, Brown Bird released a new song, "Weathering," with a bittersweet and heart-wrenching passage: "And when the storm it does subside/this flood of roller coaster rides/we'll lick the wounds and learn to live with this new blood/and on the other side of tears we'll build our strength and face our fears."
We checked in with a number of locals who offered thoughts on David and his musical legacy. The outpouring of support has been tremendous and we thank everyone who took the time to share remembrances and tributes.
_Chris Conti
'We had an army behind us'
MorganEve Swain made this post on Facebook on Saturday, April 5.
Dear friends,
Over the past year, and especially this past week, I have been so overwhelmed and grateful for the amount of love that has surrounded Dave and me throughout our life and career together. You all have posted so many beautiful stories about Dave — how humble he was, how gracious, how talented. . . He certainly was all those things.
Four days after Dave and I met we became bandmates, lovers and business partners, and set the tone for what our life would be for the next six years. We never imagined the amount of success we would enjoy in those years, how many incredible friendships would be forged, the experiences we would share, and nothing could have prepared us for the events of this past year.
Dave entered the battle with leukemia as only Dave could — determined, steadfast, smiling and always with his mind on our future. His incredible ability to continue writing through his struggle is something I'll forever aspire to.
This week was the toughest in the battle, as Dave's body began to shut down under the stress of a year-long fight and a sudden and aggressive leukemic relapse.
Today, surrounded by his family and so many friends, Dave peacefully let go.
Thank you for all the love you've all shown us. It helped so very much to know we had an army behind us.
Love and gratitude, MorganEve
'We were always making plans for the future'
My two favorite memories of Dave are both business meetings that we had in Warren. It might sound strange to say, but it's true — my favorite thing about every meeting with Dave and MorganEve is that we were always making plans for the future. Last summer, we went to dinner at a restaurant down the street from their house — it was the first time in a few months I'd seen him outside of a hospital. At the time we thought that the worst was behind us and getting back on the road was just a few months away. There was a lot of laughter and so much excitement about the future. About a week later, I got the call that a bone marrow transplant was necessary, and that meant at least a year at home recovering. It was sad, but that meant they would have time to write and record a new album.
About a month ago, we had dinner again — Dave had felt the best he had in months, and was spending hours every day writing music and recording demos. His beard was coming back strong! Plans had been made for recording, and we had just started thinking about the first few "comeback" shows for the fall and winter. Dave had been playing the drums again (did you know he is also an amazing drummer?), and all the new songs he'd been working on had full drum kit parts that he had recorded. They had started practicing with our friend James Maple, who had learned the parts that Dave had recorded and was going to be a crucial part of Brown Bird's live show. Dave had mentioned wanting to try his hand at shooting a music video with a Super 8 camera he'd bought. I was so impressed that he had all these ideas for continuing to create and had so many different outlets for being creative. It was an incredibly rough year, but the music Dave was writing reflected on his experience and was so powerful. I was convinced that Dave and Brown Bird would come back stronger than ever before.
It was a total honor to work with Dave — he approached his career the same way he approached his personal life, with integrity and kindness. It's not surprising how far their music spread in the past few years — once you hear Brown Bird, you become a supporter and evangelist. Every band that took a chance on bringing Brown Bird on tour was rewarded with professionalism and friendship — that's why so many bands brought them out on tour multiple times.
I knew him first as a fan, and then a business partner, but ultimately as a friend. This week has been so rough, but incredible to meet so many friends of Dave that knew him long before I did. I learned so many funny, weird things — did you know he was a Deadhead? A Black Crowes fan? Did you know he went to South Africa and the Philippines? Did you know they called him and his group of friends on Star Island Berserkers? Dave was only 36 but after hearing so many stories this week, I am certain he had several lifetimes worth of experiences.
I love you, Dave. Thank you for letting me be on your team. I love you, MorganEve. Thank you for letting me be on your team.
_Tom Weyman, Brown Bird's manager

Admission requirements for transfer students.
To be accepted as a transfer student to Stritch, students must:
Please note: The Ruth S. Coleman College of Nursing and Health Sciences has separate
admission requirements for nursing and respiratory therapy students. Click here for more information about these requirements.
To apply
for admission to Cardinal Stritch University, students must:
If you are required to take the University's placement test prior to registering for classes, you will be notified by your admission counselor. Find more information about the University's placement test here.
Our admission counselors work closely with transfer students through the transfer evaluation process, helping students determine how long it will take to complete their undergraduate degree. Students can submit unofficial transcripts from
prior colleges to see how credits will
transfer into Stritch's curriculum. To request a transcript evaluation, please
contact the Office of Undergraduate Admissions at (414) 410-4040.
Many transfer students have developed a wide variety of work or
other learning experiences outside of the college classroom. Credit for Prior Learning seeks to
help students turn those experiences into college credit.
Stritch has numerous articulation agreements with two-year
colleges and universities to accept credits in transfer toward a specific
academic program. These agreements are designed to help students identify which
courses can be applied towards a bachelor's degree program at Stritch. View a list of the agreements.
PLEASE NOTE: Students interested in accelerated evening business
programs offered through the College of Business and Management are subject to
different admissions requirements and a different application process.


text: In tandem with the conversation on Propane Conversion, I thought it would be a good idea to talk about CNG Conversion on it's own thread as well. This does seem to me to be something that a lot of people are looking to get done. I'd like to see a real paper-to-pencil breakdown of the pros and cons of it all, including fuel costs, engine life, oil life, safety, cost to convert, ease to find CNG stations, tank-mileage, etc. Anyone with information could jump in.

Grant Status: Completed
Grant Title: MCH Distance Learning
Web Site: University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Project
Anita Farel, PhD
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
School of Public Health
Department of Maternal and Child Health
426 Rosenau Hall
421 S. Pittsboro Street
Chapel Hill, NC 27599-7445

Email: email@example.com
A comprehensive review of market need and demand revealed that an a-synchronous, flexible training program that confers a Certificate in MCH Leadership and/or a Master's degree in Public Health Leadership and MCH is sorely needed in North Carolina, the Southeast region, and across the nation.
Goal 1: Develop an asynchronous, online equivalent to the yearlong, 8-credit MCH residential core course Foundations of MCH utilizing distance learning instructional design methodologies. Objective 1: (1) Convert the residential MCH required core course Foundations of MCH in Year 1 (AY2008-09) to a dynamic, interactive online format with technologies for individual and group-based learning that replicate the classroom experience. Objective 2: Goal 2: Adapt the existing online UNC Public Health Leadership Program (PHLP) courses to specifically address MCH competencies. Objective 1: Adapt the face-to-face UNC Public Health Leadership Program Seminar for intensive leadership development and the existing online Program Planning and Evaluation course to reflect increased MCH content, competencies and contextual issues by end of Year 1 (AY2008-09). Goal 3: Establish infrastructure for an online UNC certificate and an MPH degree program as a portal for graduate level distance education in public health leadership in MCH. Objective 1: Complete and execute the MCH Ol�! marketing plan by end of Year 1 (AY2008-09). Objective 2: Integrate all administrative, academic, technical, instructional design, and student services features of a 10-credit certificate and a 42-credit master's degree in Leadership in MCH into existing Department infrastructure by Fall 2009. Goal 4: Launch the UNC distance Certificate in MCH Leadership and distance Leadership Master's in Public Health (MPH) in MCH in collaboration with the UNC Public Health Leadership Program. Objective 1: Recruit and enroll the 1st cohort of distance students in the Certificate and MPH during 2009 with matriculation Fall of AY2009-10. Subsequent cohorts will be enrolled annually. Goal 5: Implement continuous quality improvement (CQI) to monitor, evaluate and disseminate information about MCH Ole! and contribute to the Community of Practice (CoP) in MCH Distance Learning. Objective 1: Monitor and evaluate student and faculty experiences during the program development and implementation phases, utilizing this information to improve program outcomes and impact. Objective 2: Disseminate results from MCH Ol�! and ensure program sustainability during Year 3 (AY2010-2011) and post completion of the grant funded period.
To attain our goals and objectives, we will undertake the following activities: Convert two residential courses to an online format: MHCH 701-702: Foundations of Maternal and Child Health and PUBH/MHCH 290: Public Health and MCH Leadership Seminar. MHCH 701-702 addresses competencies and contemporary issues in an 8-credit, two-semester core course required of all master's students. PUBH/MHCH 290 includes a face-to- face intensive leadership assessment workshop and companion online lectures, readings and assignments. Complete and execute an MCH Ol�! marketing plan building on existing SPH DE marketing capacity with strategies to include electronic and print communications, alumni outreach, and conference and meeting exhibits. Build on SPH documentation of existing online courses and technology. An evaluation plan with identified benchmarks to guide evaluation of MCH courses, administrative procedures, and technical requirements for the certificate and MPH. Disseminate findings nationwide through the professional literature and annual MCH conferences such as AMCHP, APHA, and ATMCH. Ensure sustainability by using infrastructure of an established MCH Leadership Training Program, in collaboration with SPH and practice partners - the PHLP, Online Instruction Group, UNC MCH Leadership Training Consortium, and NC Title V Program. Faculty and staff are currently in place. Tuition receipts will support improvements in educational design, methodology and technology.
MCH Ol�! will be coordinated with the UNC Department of MCH, the Public Health Leadership Program and Instructional and Information Systems -- Online Instruction Group in the SPH. As an extension of our established residential MCH leadership training program, we will continue collaboration with the NC Title V Program as well as all other MCHB funded leadership training programs across campus through the UNC MCH Leadership Training Consortium and nationally through the MCH training network.
Formative and summative assessments will be conducted to evaluate online courses developed for the certificate and MPH program. Consistent with the evaluation of our residential training program, data will be collected when students matriculate, at the end of a course, and at the end of the certificate or master's program. Alumni follow-up will also be conducted. Additional SPH evaluative measures for DE students will assess technical and instructional design elements of MCH Ol�!
During Project Year 1 of MCH Ole! A total of 32 online lectures were published. The Leadership Seminar in MCH was fully developed. Moreover, the academic program foundation for a new Certificate and focus area within an online MPH was established.

Estate and Letting Agency Business Plan
Running a successful estate agency requires careful planning to acquire properties to sell and let. Use this professionally prepared business plan to develop your own strategies in no time at all.
Whether you are simply selling residential real estate properties, renting office space, letting apartments in a central city location or introducing potential buyers to financial products this plan covers all revenue streams.
The Executive Summary for This Plan
The details below are taken directly from the Estate Agency and Lettings Business Plan.
Company Overview
Rockby Limited is a new trading company recently incorporated to set up a letting and real estate sales office in a local town.
We are to sub-let an existing estate agency business who are moving premises to the adjoining town. The business is headed by Mr Andrew Harris who has 11 successful years as manager of previous estate agency businesses.
External Review
The local environment has an average selling price for three and four bedroom homes of £423,500 and monthly rental values of £1,560.
The area is in high demand due to the excellent rail links into the City of London which keeps prices higher than the national averages and other towns locally.
In total 120 properties sell each year with an additional 98 being rented to private and local authority tenants. There is one other agency in the town with a small number being marketed by national agencies from their London base.
We believe we can capture 30% of this business in year one, climbing to 50% in year three. Our fees for selling and renting are competitive in the area, and we offer full website marketing for free.
Services Offered
Our agency will just offer three core services as follows:
- Sole agency and joint agency property sales.
- Full lettings management service and tenant finding commissions.
- Mortgage and insurance referral services via our consumer credit licence.
Financial Statements
The revenues for all products for the first year of operation are forecast at £225,000 with this increasing by 21% for each of the subsequent two years as we gain market share.
Net profits are forecast to be 34% before the salaries of the Directors and before tax and interest.
Staffing and Ownership
Rockby Limited is a new company set-up and run by Mr Andrew Harris, who has 11 years' experience in the estate agency business.
The staff includes a lettings manager, a sales executive with a part-time administrator.
The premises are secured on a medium term let for 15 years with a rent review every five years. Initial start-up costs are covered by a £60,000 Director's loan to be repaid with the first 12 months of operation.

"I think our offensive line responded well after we challanged them this week," Alexander said, "we converted on some third and shorts and everytine we were inside the five, we managed to punch it in."
Carter rushed eight times for 95 yards and a score, including a 72-yard touchdown scamper in the first quarter that pushed his career rushing total over 1,000 yards. The junior also caught seven passes for 86 yards and a touchdown. The Nashville native caught a short pass and broke at least five tackles en route to a 13-yard TD.
CU quarterback Curt Bureau completed 20-of-26 passes for 154 yards and two scores. More importantly, Bureau did not throw an interception for the second straight game.
Redshirt freshman Thomas Goodloe rushed for 69 yards on seven carries, all in the second half, while Mitch McChurch added 38 yards on 11 rushes.
Georgetown back Dustin Menetrey rushed for just 64 yards on 14 carries. The Tigers did their biggest damage through the air, with Alex Matthews passing for 201 yards and a score on 18-for-32 before leaving with an injury in the fourth quarter.
Tyler Hancock relieved him, going 5-for-9 for 80 yards and a score but two interceptions.
Cumberland dominated play in the opening quarter, gaining 125 yards to just 28 for Georgetown. The Bulldogs got another big play from Carter, who took a jet sweep around the left side for a 72-yard score, giving CU a 7-0 lead at the end of the first period. Carter had an 87-yard kickoff return for a touchdown last week versus Campbellsville University.
Georgetown's offense was stifled through the first quarter, but the Tigers put together a long drive early in the second period, moving 80 yards on 13 plays. Matthews scrambled to his right on a 3rd-and-10 and found Travis Sberna running across the back of the end zone into the corner. Sberna made a diving catch for a 21-yard score, tying the game at seven.
The Bulldogs answered with their own long drive, grounding out 73 yards on 14 plays, taking seven minutes off the clock. On 3rd-and-goal, Bureau tossed a one-yard TD pass in the corner of the endzone to Ronez Harris, giving CU a 14-7 advantage with just 40 seconds left in the half.
But Georgetown put themselves in position for a field goal on the last play of the half after Matthews found Chris Gohman for a 37-yard completion. Cole Richards' 21-yard attempt on the last play of the half was wide right, allowing the Bulldogs to take a seven-point lead at the half.
Georgetown got the opening kickoff of the second half, but Kelsea Fordham stripped DeAndre Pitts at the 30. Fordham picked up the fumble and returned it to the five yard line, where McChurch plunged in from the one, giving the Bulldogs a 21-7 lead less than a minute into the third period.
But the Tigers came right back with their second long drive of the game, covering 75 yards on 11 plays. Matthews capped the drive with a seven-yard touchdown run, faking the pitch on the option and breaking three tackles before falling into the endzone.
The Bulldogs took advantage of another Georgetown turnover in the third period, as Anthony Allen intercepted his second pass of the season, this one at the CU 29-yard line. Cumberland drove 53 yards and on the second play of the fourth period, Nick Sasser squeaked a 36-yard field goal just over the crossbar for a 31-14 CU advantage.
GC's Rob Madon caught a 49-yard TD pass from Hancock with 4:34 remaining in the game, but Chris Simpson and Connor McChurch both intercepted passes in the fourth quarter to seal the victory for the Bulldogs.
Cumberland plays at 22nd-ranked Newberry College next week before returning home in September 26 to face the University of the Cumberlands.
