# Christian Women Concerned

Christian Women Concerned was the first explicitly religious feminist organisation in Australia. It was founded in 1968 by a small ecumenical group of feminist scholars that included Marie Tulip, Dorothy McRae-McMahon and Jean Skuse. The organisation played a significant role in the establishment of the Commission on the Status of Women in the Church by the Australian Council of Churches and published the Christian feminist magazine Magdalene from 1973 to 1987.

## History

Christian Women Concerned was formed in 1968. It was one of a number of Christian feminist groups established between the late 1960s and the early 1990s, that included Women and the Australian Church (1982) and the Movement for the Ordination of Women (Australia) (1983). It sought to bring women together and make feminism more generally acceptable in an environment where the women's liberation movement was seen by some as a threat to families.
Christian Women Concerned started as a social justice group, and was actively involved in programs for social change, advocating peace, justice for Aboriginal people, and the elimination of poverty, prejudice, and violence against women. Arising from Presbyterian, Congregational and Methodist traditions, it soon became interested in how Christian teaching contributed to women's oppression. Many of its founders, including Marie Tulip, Dorothy McRae-McMahon and Jean Skusehad prominent roles in the church over the next decades, challenging gender discrimination in the Uniting Church and beyond. It has been noted that this was "the first time that there was a discrete Christian feminist voice articulating women's oppression in mainstream Christian churches and tying that oppression to others in a systematic analysis."
Christian Women Concerned began publishing Magdalene (newsletter) in 1973. Marie Tulip was the editor of the magazine which ran successfully until 1987. Australian academic and sociologist of religion, Kathleen McPhillips, described Magdalene as "a powerful forum for discussion, change and creativity reflecting the early challenges of second wave feminism and its extensive social justice program."
In the early 1970s Christian Women Concerned influenced the Australian Council of Churches' decision to establish the Commission on the Status of Women in the Church. It invited feminists of international renown such as Rosemary Radford Reuther to its major conferences and was generously funded by the Whitlam government during International Women's Year in 1975. Many members of the group already had associations with the Women's Movement in Australia during the 1960s. Christian Women Concerned would also give rise to the first Australian Anglican women's activist group, Anglican Women Concerned, which formed in 1975.

# Cerro Columa

Cerro Columa, or Cerro Colluma, is a crater in Bolivia. In 1964 it was considered to be a crater formed by volcanism.$^{:31}$ Its rims reach an altitude of 3,820 metres (12,530 ft) and in the crater lies a playa lake. The crater has dimensions of 6–6.7 kilometres (3.7–4.2 mi).$^{:32}$ The crater was most likely formed by the collapse of a sediment dome, an origin as a meteorite crater is less likely.$^{:38}$
The crater lies on a poorly vegetated desert plain that slopes to Salar de Coipasa.$^{:31}$ The surrounding plain has an altitude of 3,830 metres (12,570 ft) and was covered by Lake Minchin during the Pleistocene.$^{:32}$

# RMAS Salmaster (A186)

RMAS Salmaster (A186) was a Sal-class mooring and salvage vessel completed in 1986 for the Royal Navy and initially operated by the Royal Maritime Auxiliary Service (RMAS). She was sold in 2001 into commercial ownership.

## RMAS Salmaster

Salmaster was built by Hall, Russell & Company, Aberdeen, as Yard No. 994 and launched on 12 November 1985. Her displacement is 2,225 tonnes and dimensions 77.1 metres (253 ft) length, 14.9 metres (49 ft) beam and 3.8 metres (12 ft) draught. The ship was powered by two Ruston & Hornsby diesels, totalling 4,000 brake horsepower (3,000 kW), driving two screw propellers and giving a service speed of 15 knots (28 km/h; 17 mph). In naval service her complement was 19.
The ship was commissioned on 10 April 1986 with pennant number A186. Tasks included the laying and maintenance of underwater targets, navigation marks and moorings as well as marine salvage. In 1996 the operations of RMAS were transferred to Serco Denholm (a joint venture between Serco Group and British shipping company Denholm).

## Ocean Endeavour

Salmaster was sold in 2001 to British marine services and survey company Gardline of Great Yarmouth, converted for research and survey work, and was renamed Ocean Endeavour. As at December 2023, she is operated world-wide by Gardline Marine Sciences.

# Flag of Grand Forks, North Dakota

The flag of Grand Forks, North Dakota was adopted on December 5, 1994.

## Design

The flag features green riverbanks (symbolize the life and growth of the city), blue water (symbolizes the forking of the Red River of the North and the Red Lake River at Grand Forks and the historical significance of the rivers in the development of the city), a yellow stalk of wheat (symbolizes the local importance of agriculture), a red feather (symbolizes the influence of Native Americans on the region), and a white background (symbolizes the clean air and open spaces of the area). 1870 refers to the year the name "Grand Forks" was first applied to the new community.
# Chickapig

Chickapig is a strategy board game created by Brian Calhoun in partnership with musician Dave Matthews, and published by Buffalo Games. The game follows chicken-pig hybrids as they attempt to cross the board while avoiding their opponents. Chickapig debuted as the top-selling new game on Amazon.com in 2017. The Virginia Institute of Autism has adopted the game as a learning tool for teaching social skills.

## Concept

Each player is in charge of a flock of six Chickapigs. The goal is for each player to move their Chickapigs across the board to pass through the goal on the other side of the board. Simultaneously, the players attempt to derail their opponents' Chickapigs using hay bales, the cow, and cow poop.

## Gameplay

At the start of each turn, the players roll a die to see how many moves they can make in a straight line, either forward, backward, or sideways. Once the turn starts, they cannot stop until encountering another Chickapig, a hay bale, the cow (and cow fence), the perimeter of the game board, or the sides of the goals. The Chickapig stops in the space adjacent to whichever object it has encountered. One move is counted every time the Chickapig moves to encounter an object.
Players can move their own color Chickapigs. A player cannot move a Chickapig inside another player's goal.

## Critical reception

Chickapig won Best Board Game at the 2019 National Parenting Product Awards.
The game was also a finalist for a Toy Association Specialty Toy of the Year award.

## Distribution

In March 2019, Target Corporation launched Chickapig in its stores, including a children's book and a plush doll. The game is also available in Barnes & Noble, Walmart, and independent game stores across the United States.
# Christian Woman

"Christian Woman" is a single by gothic metal band Type O Negative from their 1993 album Bloody Kisses. It is one of two songs (the other being "Black No. 1") that people credit with propelling the band into the mainstream. The song is inspired by a real woman with whom lead singer and songwriter Peter Steele was once romantically involved. Steele told Revolver, "She was a Roman Catholic, much as I am, but she would get off on breaking the rules a little bit. She would ask me to dress up as a priest and, well, I guess you can just imagine what would happen after that. So, I guess you could say I have a bit of a priest infection."

## Music videos

Two music videos exist for this song. The most well-known video, directed by Jon Reiss, uses the radio edit of the song, which is four minutes and twenty-four seconds long. The other video uses the longer album version of the song, which has a significantly longer runtime of eight minutes and fifty-eight seconds. Both videos are available on the 1998 video album After Dark.

# Radio Paris

Radio Paris was a French radio broadcasting company best known for its Axis propaganda broadcasts in Vichy France during World War II.
Radio Paris evolved from the first private radio station in France, called Radiola, founded by pioneering French engineer Émile Girardeau in 1922. It became Radio Paris on 29 March 1924, and remained so through 17 June 1940, transitioning to state ownership in December 1933 as the premier station in the country. It kept its name from July 1940 until August 1944, but the station was then run by Nazis and French collaborators.
From 1940, collaborationist voices on Radio Paris included Jacques Doriot and Philippe Henriot. From 1942, Jean Hérold-Paquis broadcast daily news reports on Radio Paris, in which he regularly called for the "destruction" of the United Kingdom. His catch phrase was "England, like Carthage, shall be destroyed!", echoing Cato the Elder's slogan Carthago delenda est.
On 19 September 1941, Maurice Chevalier sang in Le Poste Parisien his last success, "Notre Espoir", composed by his accompanist Henri Betti.
Radio Paris broadcasts were intended to counter the BBC broadcasts of Radio Londres by Free French figures like Pierre Dac, who sang the taunting refrain, Radio Paris ment, Radio Paris ment, Radio Paris est allemand ("Radio Paris lies, Radio Paris lies, Radio Paris is German"), to the tune of "La Cucaracha". On 8 May 1942 its transmitter in Bourges was blown up by the Resistance.
The station was shut down on the evening of 15 August 1944 by a trained police commando action, as part of the liberation of Paris.

# 2002 NCBA World Series

The 2002 National Club Baseball Association (NCBA) World Series was played at Hobbs Field in Pueblo, CO from May 23 to May 27. The second tournament's champion was Texas A&M University.

## Format

The format is similar to the NCAA College World Series in that eight teams participate in two four-team double elimination brackets with the only difference being that in the NCBA, there is only one game that decides the national championship rather than a best-of-3 like the NCAA. A major difference between the NCAA and NCBA World Series is that NCBA World Series games were only 7 innings (until 2006) while NCAA games are 9 innings.

## Participants

* Clemson
* Colorado State
* North Carolina
* Ohio State
* Penn State
* Texas A&M
* Virginia

# 2002 NCAA men's volleyball tournament

The 2002 NCAA men's volleyball tournament was the 33rd annual tournament to determine the national champion of NCAA men's collegiate indoor volleyball. The single elimination tournament was played at Rec Hall in University Park, Pennsylvania during May 2002.
Hawaiʻi defeated Pepperdine in the final match, 3–1 (29–31, 31–29, 30–21, 30–24), to win their first national title. However, the NCAA Committee on Infractions ultimately vacated the Rainbow Warriors' tournament appearance, wins, and championship. The championship was not reawarded to Pepperdine. Hawaiʻi (24–8) was coached by Mike Wilton.
Hawaiʻi's Costas Theocharidis was originally named the tournament's Most Outstanding Player. However, this award was revoked when Hawaiʻi's title was vacated by the NCAA. Additionally, Theocharidis and teammate Tony Ching were both removed from the six-man All Tournament Team.

## Qualification

Until the creation of the NCAA Men's Division III Volleyball Championship in 2012, there was only a single national championship for men's volleyball. As such, all NCAA men's volleyball programs, whether from Division I, Division II, or Division III, were eligible. A total of 4 teams were invited to contest this championship.
| Team | Appearance | Previous |
| Ball State | 15th | 1997 |
