  • Local Punks Start a Movement
    Local Punks Start a Movement Peter & the Test Tube Babies Local punks have joined forces to create a monthly event, called PVD Punk Night, with the first installment coming March 31 at PVD Social Club. Former Hell owner John ‘Cyco’ DiFruscio, Drunk Robb, Brass ‘N’ Ammo, Done Right, and American Pride among others are off to an awesome start. This will be the type of night that punk rock dreams are made of. The 1980’s punk legends, Peter and The Test Tube Babies are on their first US tour in more than 10 years, which includes a stop at the PVD Social Club. Peter and The Test Tube Babies are known for blistering punk rock anthem like “Intensive Care,” “Run Like Hell,” and my personal favorite, “Banned From The Pubs.” I remember getting a punk compilation mixed tape with no song names in high school and “Banned From The Pubs” was the first song and just listening to that song and hitting rewind over and over. I didn’t actually find out until an embarrassing amount of years later that it was Peter and The Test Tube Babies and not The Exploited. Hey, there was no internet back then. Sometimes it is hit or miss when the punk rock titans of the past come to town but Peter and The Test Tube Babies have enjoyed a solid reputation on the European festival circuit and look to be a sure bet. If that wasn’t enough throw in a second headliner in NYC hardcore legends, Murphy’s Law, and you got the punk rock show of the spring, possibly the year.

The first photo in the online post features Gomez and Raisa holding hands, lying side-by-side in hospital gowns. Most of us have two kidneys, which are bean-shaped organs in the body that filter and remove waste from our blood. A healthy person with two kidneys may choose to donate one, as it is possible to live a long and healthy life with just one kidney. "She gave me the ultimate gift and sacrifice by donating her kidney to me," Gomez said of her extremely generous friend. "I am incredibly blessed. I love you so much sis." Another photo in the series reveals a large red scar running across part of Gomez's stomach. Lupus Attacks Healthy Body Parts Gomez said she needed a transplant as a result of having Lupus. A serious disease that affects the immune system, Lupus can cause damage to many organs, including the kidneys, heart and brain.

  • Benjamin Randall: Founder of the Free Will Baptists
    ABSTRACT The Awakening of the Freewill Baptists: Benjamin Randall and the Founding of an American Religious Tradition Scott E. Bryant, Ph.D. Chairperson: William H. Brackney, Ph.D. The last decades of the eighteenth century brought numerous changes to the citizens of colonial New England. As the colonists were joining together in their fight for independence from England, a collection of like-minded believers in Southern New Hampshire forged an identity as a new religious tradition. Benjamin Randall (1749- 1808), a principal founder of the Freewill Baptist movement in colonial New England, was one of the many eighteenth century colonists that enjoyed a conversion experience as a result of the revival ministry of George Whitefield. Randall’s conversion included a direct revelation from God that communicated God’s universal love and grace for all people. As a result of his conversion he began evaluating the spiritual condition of his fellow parishioners and he was disappointed that his peers did not share his newfound zeal for spiritual matters. His spiritual zeal prompted him to examine the scriptures on his own and he questioned the practice of infant baptism. Randall completed his separation from the Congregational church of his youth when he contacted a Baptist congregation and submitted himself for baptism. When Randall was introduced to the universal love and universal grace, was at odds with Calvin’s doctrine of election that was affirmed by the other Baptists. Randall’s spiritual journey continued as he began to preach revival services throughout the region. His ministry was well received and he established a new congregation in New Durham, New Hampshire, in 1780.

Rabbis have been preparing services and synagogues, making sure all facilities are in the best condition. of Forgiveness The High Holy Day season, which includes Rosh Hashanah (the New Year), Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement) and Sukkot (the Feast of Booths), is undoubtedly the holiest and most important time of the Jewish year. Even the most irreligious Jewish people will probably find themselves in synagogue sometime in the next few weeks. The High Holy Days and the Bible Beginning in verse 23 of chapter 23 of Leviticus, the three festivals observed in the seventh month are listed; Rosh Hashanah in verse 23, Yom Kippur in verses 26-32 and Sukkot in the remainder of the chapter, verses 33-43. Each one of the festivals points us to an event in the past that God wanted to memorialize for the Jewish people.Yet each festival not only points to historical events, but also foreshadows greater events in the future.

The 2021 Power of Art students take the plunge and uncover different sides of themselves using their music as the vehicle. All have taken risks, wrestled with difficult societal topics and intersectionality, and, hopefully, been inspired while embracing the exploration. The wide variety of presentations you are about to witness show a great range of deep introspection, light heartedness, art viewing and actual art making. Before this year, I had never only known students via a screen before. What a predicament to teach any class this way but especially one that involves great vulnerability, courage, and relationship building. To say that conditions were not ideal would be an understatement. However, I could not be more proud of what these students have accomplished, their bravery, and their willingness to delve into unknown terrain. All of their ideas came from them, are unique to them, and are expressed by them. I hope with all of my heart that someday I get to give them a big smile and a hearty congratulations in person! Thank you to Longy School of Music of Bard College for believing in this work and, of course, thank you, Power of Art 201 students, for presenting a beautiful microcosm of a world full of individual creativity!
