  • Pappas BLOWOUT 93 Rachel Maddow. 2019. Blowout: Corrupted
    Pappas 93 BLOWOUT Rachel Maddow. 2019. %ORZRXW &RUUXSWHG 'HPRFUDF\ 5RJXH State Russia, and the Richest, Most Destructive Industry on Earth. Crown. 406 pages. Modern society runs on oil. Today’s drillers produce over 90 million barrels of oil worldwide every single day. Oil has become an imperative and with that imperative the people who provide that oil demand payment and control. The tradeoff is logical. However, what happens when the balance is out of whack? According to Maddow, “The oil and gas industry--left to its own devices--will mindlessly follow its own nature. It will make tons of money. It will corrode and corrupt and sabotage democratic governance. It will screw up and-in the end-fatally injure the whole freaking planet. And yes, it will also provide oil and gas along the way!” (p. 365). In reviewing the cover of Rachel Maddow’s new book Blowout, one would not assume that the State of Oklahoma is the subject of nearly half of the book. However, she compares it to petrostates such as Equatorial Guinea. The State of Oklahoma government is no match for Harold Hamm and big oil. News watchers will be familiar with the events that Maddow recounts but the way she strings them all together tells a story that doesn’t quite get told in Oklahoma media. Earthquake swarms started in Oklahoma in 2010 but it wasn’t until WKDWWKH2NODKRPD&RUSRUDWLRQ&RPPLVVLRQ¿QDOO\EHJDQWR restrain the actions of the oil and gas producers and their injection wells. It took longer than necessary to pinpoint the cause of the earthquakes because oil and gas producers resisted data collection.

This mission is accomplished through a partnership with private citizens wishing to leave their footprint in our state's rich history. Education and Development In 2009 and 2010 Friends of the Capitol (FOC) participated in several educational and developmental projects informing fellow Oklahomans of the beauty of the capitol and how they can participate in the continuing renovations of Oklahoma State Capitol building. In March of 2010, FOC representatives made a trip to Elk City and met with several organizations within the community and illustrated all the new renovations funded by Friends of the Capitol supporters. Additionally in 2009 FOC participated in the State Superintendent’s encyclo-media conference and in February 2010 FOC participated in the Oklahoma City Public Schools’ Professional Development Day. We had the opportunity to meet with teachers from several different communities in Oklahoma, and we were pleased to inform them about all the new restorations and how their school’s name can be engraved on a 15”x30”paver, and placed below the Capitol’s south steps in the Centennial Memorial Plaza to be admired by many generations of Oklahomans.

  • Oklahoma Part C APR Letter, 2002-2003 (PDF)
    UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION OFFICE OF SPECIAL EDUCATION AND REHABILITATIVE SERVICES Honorable Sandy Garrett Superintendent of Public Instruction Oklahoma State Department of Education AUG - 4 2500 North Lincoln Boulevard 2004 Oklahoma City, OK 73105-4599 Dear Superintendent Garrett : The purpose of this letter is to respond to Oklahoma's March 31, 2004 submission of its Federal Fiscal Year (FFY) 2002 Annual Performance Report (APR) for the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) Part C funds used during the grant period July 1, 2002 through June 30, 2003 . The APR reflects actual accomplishments made by the State during the reporting period, compared to established objectives . The APR for IDEA is designed to provide uniform reporting from States and result in high-quality information across States. The APR is a significant data source utilized in the Continuous Improvement and Focused Monitoring System (CIFMS) implemented by the Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP), within the U .S. Department of Education. The APR falls within the third component of OSEP's four-part accountability strategy (i .e., supporting States in assessing their performance and compliance, and in planning, implementing, and evaluating improvement strategies) and consolidates the self-assessing and improvement planning functions of the CIFMS into one document . OSEP's Memorandum regarding the submission of Part C APRs directed States to address five cluster areas : General Supervision; Comprehensive Public Awareness and Child Find System ; Family Centered Services; Early Intervention Services in Natural Environments ; and Early Childhood Transition. Background On February 4, 2004, OSEP responded to the Oklahoma State Department of Education's (OSDE's) FFY 2001 APR (submitted in 2003) and identified two areas of noncompliance.

  • Can't Turn Me Around
    CAN’T TURN ME AROUND: AN ORAL HISTORY PLAY by Julie Pearson Little Thunder This play is based on interviews conducted by Dr. Tanya Finchum and Juliana Nykolaiszyn for the Oklahoma Oral History Research Program at Oklahoma State University. It includes first person accounts from nine of the forty-six women in the interview series, who served in the Oklahoma Legislature from 2007-2010. Classroom curriculum and specific lessons are also included in the interview collection. To access written transcripts or audio interviews, go to https://library.okstate.edu/search-and-find/collections/digital- collections/wotol/women-legislators/ This is a public domain play. No royalties are required for performances so long as they are given free of charge. However, any public performance must include a program acknowledgement of the playwright. 1 A NOTE ABOUT STYLE This is a presentational play which can be done Reader’s Theater style or as a memorized performance. Posture, voice and various costume elements such as scarves and jackets can be used to indicate the change from actor to character and vice versa. Because this play relies upon these transitions for its theatrical effect, and to emphasize the fact that the women legislators lines are quotes from their interviews, I distinguish between actors and interviewees by listing one or the other first. For example: Actor #3/LAURA BOYD means the actor starts as herself and then presents Boyd. When the notation is reversed, LAURA BOYD/Actor #3, Boyd gets the emphasis. https://library.okstate.edu/search-and-find/collections/digital- collections/wotol/women-legislators/ 2 CAST OF CHARACTERS Bernice Mitchell and Hannah Atkins/Actor #1 (African Americans) Lisa Johnson Billy/Actor #2 (Native American, Chickasaw) Laura Boyd/Actor #3 (white) Audience member/Actor #4 (white) Kathleen Wilcoxson/ Actor #5 (white) Betty Boyd/Actor #6 (white) 3 ACTOR #3 This is how Bernice Mitchell started out in politics.
