Robert Cummings Neville writes and teaches in the fields of philosophy, religious studies, and systematic theology. He is especially interested in metaphysics (God the Creator), philosophical cosmology (Recovery of the Measure), ethics (The Puritan Smile, Eternity and Time's Flow), religious semiotics (The Truth of Broken Symbols, Symbols of Jesus), and cross-cultural comparative philosophy and theology, with a comparative specialty in Chinese philosophy and religion (Ritual and Deference, Boston Confucianism). He is currently working on a systematic philosophical theology that pulls together these interests in a new theory of religion with a comparative, pragmatic, and homiletical orientation.
Dean Neville was dean of the Boston University School of Theology from 1988 to 2003. Then he was dean of Marsh Chapel at Boston University from 2003 to 2006. He was executive director of the Danielsen Institute from 2005 to 2009. He first came to Boston University in 1987 as Chair of the Department of Religion and Director of the Division of Religious and Theological Studies. He was dean of Fine Arts and Humanities at SUNY Stony Brook from 1982 to 1985. He has been chair of every other academic unit in which he has served since 1966, and resolves to undertake no more administrative responsibilities. He attributes his remaining sanity to having taught full time during all these administrative endeavors. He has taught at Yale University, Fordham University, Wesleyan University (part-time), SUNY Purchase, and SUNY Stony Brook as well as Boston University.
Dean Neville was ordained deacon in the Methodist Church in 1963 and elder in the United Methodist Church in 1966, with membership now in the Missouri Conference of the United Methodist Church, having served summer pastorates in Missouri in 1956 and 1962. From 1965 to 1978 he was unofficial associate pastor of St. Stephen's United Methodist Church in the Bronx, and from 1978 to 1987 was unofficial associate at the Huntington United Methodist Church in Huntington, Long Island.
The past president of the American Academy of Religion, Dean Neville is also past president of the International Society for Chinese Philosophy, the Metaphysical Society of America, and the Association of United Methodist Theological Schools. He is currently president of the Highlands Institute for American Religious and Philosophical Thought. He has served as a member of the Accrediting Commission of the Association of Theological Schools in the United States and Canada and the Commission on Theological Education of the United Methodist Church. He is a member of the editorial boards of The Journal of the American Academy of Religion and Soundings. He was Associated Editor for Behavioral and Neurological Articles for the Encyclopedia of Bioethics. He has published numerous books and articles.

Panel's advice: Seeking North Dakota opportunities? Get out there!
Want to profit from the oil boom in North Dakota? Well, get the heck out there!
That was one of the key messages from a panel of Twin Cities business executives who are active in the oil-producing Bakken region of North Dakota. They shared their knowledge with a crowd of more than 200 people Thursday morning at the Minneapolis/St. Paul Business Journal's "Opportunity North Dakota" event in Minneapolis.
The general consensus was that there are ample opportunities in the region for Twin Cities companies, entrepreneurs and professionals in multiple sectors ranging from housing to restaurant franchising to dentistry.
>Click here to read the Business Journal's story about Twin Cities companies that are doing business in North Dakota's Bakken region.
The panelists were:
- Aaron Hill, vice president and director of business development, Scott Builders Inc., Buffalo, Minn.,
- Ken DeCubellis, CEO, Black Ridge Oil & Gas Inc., Minnetonka (OTC: ANFC),
- Kermit Nash, Partner, Gray Plant Mooty, Minneapolis,
- Doug Karle, vice president operations, LHR Hospitality Management, Eagan.
>Click to the upper right to see photos of the panelists and the event. >>>>>
Both Hill and Karle said building contractors on various levels need to get out there, and that they'll make good margins and meet a huge need.
Karle, who's company manages the Ramada Grand Dakota Lodge in Dickinson, N.D., said quality heating-and-cooling contractors are so hard to find in the region that his firm took preventative HVAC work in-house.
There's high demand for practically everything in the region due to the oil-field activity and the workers who work there, he said, including more roads, sewers, child care, restaurants, dentists, shops and much more.
"Anything you can think of is needed to support additional traffic," he said.
Finding qualified staff for the Dickinson hotel is his biggest challenge, calling the pay rates "off the charts." He told of sending the hotel's general manager and her husband on an all-expenses-paid trip to Washington, D.C., as a performance bonus, something that would be uncommon elsewhere.
But the hotel also hires J-1 Visa workers from other countries as well as workers from Florida and Michigan.
Hill said Scott Builders transports its Twin Cities-based workers to the Bakken region to ensure quality and because hiring people there is too difficult. The company rotates those employees so they're working there onsite for 10 days, then are home for five.
Both Hill and Karle said building credibility and relationships in the region is important for success.
"It's more about relationships and meeting everyone's needs," Karle said. But the right clothing doesn't hurt, he added. "I just wear jeans when I'm out there."
Hill said land for development has gotten more expensive over the last few years, and getting access to the best deals requires a good track record and established credibility.
Nash said there's plenty of business for professional-services providers, from accountants to investment bankers to lawyers. Banks, which often have ties in both North Dakota and the Twin Cities, are good channels of work, he said. However, companies and professionals from the North Dakota cities of Fargo and Grand Forks, plus South Dakota, Denver and Seattle also are active in the area.
Nash also said that there's a rush of mergers-and-acquisitions activity in North Dakota as people seek to transfer wealth before potential federal tax hikes take effect at the beginning of 2013.
And DeCubellis said investment bankers with experience in the energy sector "get hired in a heartbeat," but also that anyone who just drops into Williston, N.D., and explores the opportunities will end up with a job.
DeCubellis also said there's plenty of room for oil production to climb in the region, and that the big multinational oil companies, such as Exxon Mobil Corp., (NYSE: XOM), BP (NYSE: BP), and Chevron Corp. (NYSE: CVX), are "hovering" to buy into the market. Also, the region, including the Twin Cities, needs expanded pipeline and refining capacity to handle the oil flow.
However, uncertainty regarding federal regulations and November's general election is limiting investment.
DeCubellis called the discovery of shale oil and natural gas an "endowment" that will be an economic boon to the national economy, creating 1 million jobs nationwide by 2025, so he's optimistic that the government will not hinder that growth.

A/N: I had a new story idea. Hope you like it!
My heart is beating rapidly. I must have checked over my outfit fifty times and it's still in the same order. The tea I've been drinking isn't helping me at all. I finally shake off my nerves and lead my way through the massive building.
There's hundreds of people wandering all over the place. I spot the front desk in the distance and walk over there. A young woman explains to me that a man will be waiting for me and points me to the elevator. I enter inside and it goes straight up. I inhale and exhale multiple times, trying not to freak out. The bell dings and the doors open.
She was right, a middle-aged man with a buzz-cut in a suit is standing there with his hands behind his back. I take one last breath and make my way towards him.
"Miss. Steele I presume?" he asks and I nod. "Alright, follow me." We first stop at an large desk. "You can place your belongings here." I do what he says and we continue on our journey. We enter into a room with a camera. "You need your picture taken for the badge, you must have it with you always."
"Okay." I say, standing before the lens and smiling. We exit the room and go back to the front desk.
"My apologies that I haven't introduced myself, I'm Jason Taylor. I am Mr. Grey's personal boyguard." Jason states and I bite my lip. "Since Mr. Grey is very strict on how he likes things done, I've made you a list that will you help."
"Thank you so much." I mutter and he nods.
"Have a good first day, Miss. Steele." Taylor turns around and disappears. I'm left alone for the first time and sit down at the desk. I find the list and begin reading it. Wow.
Always refer to him as Mr. Grey or sir, never by first name.
Have his coffee already prepared when he arrives. He likes it just black.
Knock before entering into his office and say your name.
Never, ever touch anything on his desk or in his office.
Make sure you get his dismissal that you can go home.
Be prepared to book his appointments and to get his lunches.
Wear appropriate clothing as sometimes you be sitting in his meetings.
You should be at your desk at exactly eight o'clock sharp.
I finish reading the list and I'm scared. Mr. Grey seems like a control freak. I fear I will do something wrong. Number two says that he likes his coffee. So I should get him some, right? I jump up from my seat and I find myself to the kitchen. The coffee is already made and I pour the black liquid in a mug. It's now or never, I make my way to his office. Following the list, I knock on the door and announce my name.
"Mr. Grey, it's Miss. Steele with your coffee." I voice, waiting for him to accept my arrival.
"You may proceed." he states, his voice deep and huskily. I bite my lip and step inside. My heart drops when I see him. He's seated at his desk, deep into his work. His hair is already all over the place and jacket is discarded. "My coffee?" he asks, finally staring up at me.
"Yes." I whisper. My eyes connect with his. He has beautiful gray eyes. The kind you could get lost in. Snapping out of my daydream, I walk over to his desk and place it in front of him.
"So you're my new assistant?" Mr. Grey questions, examining me from head to toe. He nods like he's impressed. "I hope you're better than my last one."
"I hope, too." I mumble under my breath, looking down. Christian chuckles and I gaze at him.
"Don't doubt yourself." Christian voices and I bite my lip. "And don't bite your lip." My teeth let go of my bottom lip and I nod.
"Sorry, Sir." His eyes become dark and intense.
"I like you."
"You don't even know me." I mutter and he leans back in his chair.
"I want to, though." Grey says and I feel my heart jump.
"I should get back to my desk." I state and he nods.
"You should." I turn around and go towards the door. "Oh, Anastasia." I look back at him and he smirks. "I meant what I said."
I blush and exit his office. My feet quickly go to my desk and I fall into my chair. Christian Grey has a way with words. I look at the papers on my desk and start getting business done.

The air has been knocked out of me. Anastasia Steele. Her beauty has captured my attention and so has her body. The purple dress she is wearing shows off her long, silky legs. Also, how I would love to run my fingers through her long, brown hair. Stop it, Grey. You're married, remember?
How can I forget? My wife is out of town visiting her parents, while I'm at work thinking about my new assistant. Sophia and I's marriage is slowly losing it's passion. We married young as we were high school sweethearts.
But things are changing, I'm becoming someone different. So is Sophia, as she wants children and I well, don't. I'm too fucked up to have children and let alone raise them. As my feelings for my wife are fading as I don't think we belong together anymore. I want something different, new. Maybe Anastasia Steele can be that something.
Ana's POV
A couple hours later, I almost having every completed. It's almost lunch time and I'm starving. I was too nervous and frazzled this morning to make a lunch. What am I going to eat? My phone rings and it's coming from Mr. Grey's office.
"Yes, Mr. Grey?" I ask, biting my lip.
"Come into my office, please." he orders and hangs up. I immediately head straight for his office and enter inside. "Well that was certainly quick, Miss. Steele." Christian teases and I blush.
"If you need me, I'm always here." I answer and his face becomes serious.
"Alright, then. I would like you to get me some lunch." he states, loosening his tie.
"What would you like?"
"A sub sandwich would work and order yourself something also." Christian voices and I stare at him. "And when you arrive back, I want you to join me to eat." The butterflies in my stomach flutter.
"Yes, Mr. Grey." I don't argue with him and leave his office.
Taylor tells me the restaurant where Mr. Grey likes his sandwiches. It takes me twenty minutes to get the food and I get back to GEH in record timing. I arrive back into Grey's office and he's on the phone. He points to the conference table to where I should put down the food.
I place all of the food out of the bag and turn my head to see him standing next to me. Holy hell. Christian is so tall next to me and muscular. My heart begins to race super fast as I become nervous. I take my seat and he sits across from me.
"Did you find the place okay?" he asks and I nod. "Were they busy?" I shake my head. "Do you know how to talk?" I nod and he starts laughing.
"I'm sorry, I'm just- I'm just..." I ramble and he raises his one eyebrow.
"You're nervous." Christian finishes my sentence and I nod.
"It's obvious, isn't it?" I ask, taking a sip of my drink.
"Just a little." he teases and I smile. "There we go, there's a smile."
"So do you ever eat lunch with your employees?" Christian stares at me and shakes his head.
"No, you're the first."
"Wow, I'm honored." I voice and he smirks.
"You should be."
"Okay, tell me why I'm the first person to eat lunch with you?" I ask and his finger trails his bottom lip, while he looks at me.
"Because you intrigue me, Miss. Steele." Christian answers and I blush. While he's staring at me, I look at him. He works his suit like a GQ model and I gaze at his left hand. A wedding ring. Why didn't I notice it before? This is so wrong, beyond belief. I'm not this girl, flirting with her married boss.
"I think my lunch break is over." I mutter, raising up from my seat. Christian gets up as well, noticing me becoming frazzled.
"Well, I didn't dismiss you, Miss. Steele." he states and I bite my lip. "Remember what I told you about that lip."
"Mr. Grey this is wrong." I whisper and he raises his eyebrow.
"What is wrong, Miss. Steele."
"Why did you want to have lunch with me?" I ask and he crosses his arms.
"I thought I told you why, Anastasia." he voices, starting to walk over to me. "You've captured my attention." Christian murmurs, meeting in front of me.
"Mr. Grey." I mutter, my blue eyes catching his gray ones. He starts leaning towards me but my hand connects with his cheek. A loud slap echos the room and my hands immediately cover my mouth. "Oh, my God. I'm so sorry." Christian starts rubbing his cheek and backs away.
"You are dismiss for the day, Miss. Steele." Grey orders, turning his back to me. My head is trying to wrap around what just happened.
"Mr. Grey, I'm-"
"Please, leave. Now." he orders and I run out the door. Tears start running down my face as I collect my belongings. What the hell just happened?

Thelypthoric DemonMature
I got out of the bathtub, the cold water dripped down my body and a warm breeze swept in the bathroom making my whole body shiver. Clara dabbed the white cloth over my body and hair, I slipped on the chemise that loosely hung from shoulders and steadily I walked back to the bed. The fever had loosened its grip on me; I was eating more, sleeping better and I was able to walk around the house for brief periods. It had been three days since William had come over, Alexander had not even bothered to stop by and every passing day I was growing anxious for his arrival.
I laid in bed watching the ceiling, feeling my chest rise and fall every time I inhaled and exhaled, it would have been a perfect day if Alexander were with me playing on the piano. I had never heard of such sweet music, if I were the Queen I would make perform every night for me, I closed my eyes trying to remember the notes; however, I knew that trying to imagine the music would be impossible. Clara knocked on the door, she opened the door when I replied and slightly she bowed and looked at her hands while she talked.
"Mr. Roux has arrived Miss. Dubois."
"Let him in." I replied, my voice no longer sounded ugly and my throat no longer hurt, only a few times did I cough. Clara bowed her head and scurried downstairs, I heard voices, and anticipation grew as I heard the footsteps climb up the steps and nervously I tidied my hair.
Alexander came into the room without Clara, his hand scratched at his neck as he lightly stepped towards my bed, a small smile appeared on his face making him radiate and becoming more beautiful. Silently he sat on my bed next to me, I sat up putting the pillow against the headboard and he chuckled and looked down at his hands.
"Are you feeling any better?" His voice was smooth and I felt my whole body relax in response.
"Yes thank you." I replied politely, I wanted to say something else rather than that, alas etiquette told me not to and I had to force my tongue back behind my teeth. Alexander smiled and looked up at me, his eyes wandered down my body, following the lines that the chemise made, my own eyes feasted on his body, his black coat fitted around his muscles and his waistcoat hugged at his broad chest and thin waist. My body reacted to him; my heart thudded loudly against my chest and my fingers curled into fists as they yearned to run them through his hair.
"Was William here when I came here three days ago?" He asked looking back down at his hands; the tip of his fingers traced the lines on his palm.
"Yes…?" I said, more like a question rather than a statement of fact. I saw Alexander tense up and his finger dug into his palm making a faint red crescent mark.
"What do you see in him Charlotte? He is nothing more than a thelypthoric demon." Alexander argued his eyes staring directly in mine and for a moment I was a little frightened, however, the moment passed when he looked down again and stared at his hands.
"Alexander you – you do not understand what William and I have, it is very complicated and I know that he ruins women but –"
"Then why do you stay with him? Why do you let him have his way with you?" Alexander almost pleaded; he was sitting up now, anger and frustration apparent on his face, his voice strained.
"You – You do not understand the relationship between William and I – "
"Then help me to understand." Blurted Alexander, his body leaned forwards so that his face was inches away from mine, I could feel his warm breath brush against my neck and desire immediately coursed through my body.
Alexander looked at me for a moment, his eyes searching mine, then slowly his lips gently pressed against mine and I felt a surge of adrenaline pulse through my body. I opened my mouth, he gently slipped his tongue, and gently he pressed against mine, his hands roamed down, from my shoulders, passed my breasts, passed my waist and stopping at my hip. He pulled me down towards the mattress his body hovered over me; the kiss grew passionate, heated, his body gently pressing against mine.
I hesitated then; the feeling of Alexander's body against mine reminded me where this would soon be going. Alexander deserved someone special, someone who would actually love him, not someone who would soon be going to the path of Hell.
"Alexander no, you need to leave." I breathed breaking away from the kiss and pushing him away with my hands. Alexander looked at me, hurt evident in his eyes, we stayed in this moment for a few more seconds until he pushed himself off me and walked out and slammed the front door behind him.
