    BREAKING NEWS! In Minneapolis I35W bridge collapses into the Mississippi

    The Interstate 35W bridge has collapsed into the Mississippi river at 6:05 PM today Aug 1st, 2007 in Minneapolis, MN. If you have friends and family in Minneapolis, you may want to check that they are OK.
    The collapsed section is approx 8 lanes and spanned probably 4-5 football fields. It was the tail end of rush hour and likely involved 60 to 80 vehicles. It is horrendous. 3 deaths reported as of 7:30 PM.

    Prayers for those in need.

    The university, whether athletes or non-athletes, has many alumni or family members of alumni in the Minneapolis area which will be affected directly or indirectly by this massive travesty. Please keep your thoughts and prayers towards those who may be in need.

      Exactly what I have been thinking. While my thoughts are with anyone involved in such a tragedy, I especially hope that no one connected to UNI was involved! That is a frightening incident. Prayers are certainly being offered from here for anyone, whoever...

        Before you wonder "Am I doing things right," ask "Am I doing the right things?"

          The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.

            I hope that Jason Daisy, Jason Sims, Brian Carpenter and all of the current UNI Panthers from the Twin Cities area and all of their family members are safe.
