Hartford Puritanism: Thomas Hooker, Samuel Stone, and Their Terrifying God
Statues of Thomas Hooker and Samuel Stone grace downtown Hartford, Connecticut, but few residents are aware of the distinctive version of Puritanism that these founding ministers of Hartford\u27s First Church carried into the Connecticut wilderness (or indeed that the city takes its name from Stone\u27s English birthplace). Shaped by interpretations of the writings of Saint Augustine largely developed during the ministers\u27 years at Emmanuel College, Cambridge, Hartford\u27s church order diverged in significant ways from its counterpart in the churches of the Massachusetts Bay Colony.
Hartford Puritanism argues for a new paradigm of New England Puritanism. Hartford\u27s founding ministers, Baird Tipson shows, both fully embraced - and even harshened - Calvin\u27s double predestination. Tipson explores the contributions of the lesser-known William Perkins, Alexander Richardson, and John Rogers to Thomas Hooker\u27s thought and practice: the art and content of his preaching, as well as his determination to define and impose a distinctive notion of conversion on his hearers. The book draws heavily on Samuel Stone\u27s The Whole Body of Divinity, a comprehensive exposition of his thought and the first systematic theology written in the American colonies. Virtually unknown today, The Whole Body of Divinity not only provides the indispensable intellectual context for the religious development of early Connecticut but also offers a more comprehensive description of the Puritanism of early New England than any other document.

Sobol\u27 sensitivity analysis of the Holocene Peat Model: What drives carbon accumulation in peatlands?
Understanding the development of northern peatlands and their carbon accumulation dynamics is crucial in order to confidently integrate northern peatlands into global carbon cycle models. To achieve this, northern peatland models are becoming increasingly complex and now include feedback processes between peat depth, decomposition, hydrology, and vegetation composition and productivity. Here we present results from a global sensitivity analysis performed to assess the behavior and parameter interaction of a peatland simulation model. A series of simulations of the Holocene Peat Model were performed with different parameter combinations in order to assess the role of parameter interactions on the simulated total carbon mass after 5000 years of peatland development. The impact of parameter uncertainty on the simulation results is highlighted, as is the importance of multiple parameter interactions. The model sensitivity indicates that peat physical properties play an important role in peat accumulation; these parameters are poorly constrained by observations and should be a focus of future research. Furthermore, the results show that autogenic processes are able to produce a wide range of peatland development behaviors independently of any external environmental changes
Training for Life: supporting communities to reduce the risk of suicide. The delivery of Certificate IV in Indigenous Mental Health (Suicide Prevention). Wontulp Bi-Buya College, 2014–2015.
[Extract] This report is a review of the delivery of the Indigenous Mental Health (Suicide Prevention) Certificate IV, (hereby known as IMH) has been conducted by Dr Anne Stephens, education sociologist and evaluation expert, the Cairns Institute, James Cook University, Cairns.
As part of the Community prevention for high risk groups initiative of the Taking Action to Tackle Suicide (TATS) Package, Wontulp -Bi -Buya College (WBBC) has delivered the IMH in two intakes:
• May 2014 - Nov 2014
• Feb 2015 – Nov 2015
The course was developed by WBBC's College Course Advisory Committee with WBBC Trainer and Course Coordinator, Rev. Leslie Baird. Rev. Baird developed the Strategic Plan for Suicide Prevention in Yarrabah (1995/6). Rev. Baird adapted the Indigenous Mental Health for suicide prevention and cultural suitability, to comply with the Australian Skills Quality Authority (ASQA), in consultation with Indigenous leaders.
As a pilot the IMH course has been highly effective in promoting localised responses to suicide and mental health issues within Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. The course is transferrable to other delivery settings outside of Cairns.
There have been 60 enrolees. 78% of the total enrolees completed the course. On average, students are over 45 years of age. 85% of enrolees were female in the 2014 intake and 77% in the 2015 intake. Student’s average age were 47.4 (female) and 41.8 (male). The average highest level of formal education is year 10. Two students had a degree qualification but most had medium to high literacy needs.
WBBC core mission is to produce empowered community leaders. With the increased awareness of mental health and suicide WBBC students are participants of a staged encounter in which students feel a new or renewed sense of belonging to a network, movement or cause. Graduates have developed personal empowerment and sense of control over their own life circumstance and environment. As each student participant will be active in teaching and mentoring others this is crucial to their own mental health and capability to promote help seeking behaviour and promotion of positive lifestyle choices in others. They emerge with a set of oral and practical skills to work effectively with service providers in existing health and community services or in finding a niche to fill. Six graduates of the 2014 course are now engaged in full-time work having completed the IMH course
