Maxwell Johnson JRCOSTEP Summer 2017 Illinois State University Rhinelander District Office Rhinelander, Wisconsin
ENS Maxwell Johnson JRCOSTEP Summer 2017 Illinois State University Rhinelander District Office Rhinelander, Wisconsin My name is Maxwell Johnson and I am a student at Illinois State University (ISU). I will be continuing my senior year this fall and I plan to graduate next May with a Bachelor of Science in Environmental Health. One of the fundamental requirements of the environmental health program at ISU is to complete a nine-week externship with an approved organization. My aim from the start was to find an externship that would provide a mix of both autonomy and mentorship that would promote collaborative growth and independent function as an EH professional. Fortunately, the Director of ISU’s Environmental Health program, CAPT George Byrns, USPHS (Ret), introduced me to Indian Health Service (IHS). He is a large reason why I switched from almost a decade in medicine to studying environmental health, so when he spoke passionately about the IHS and USPHS opportunities I listened intently. It was no more than a week or two later that I was already working on my application packet for the JRCOSTEP. After a relatively short period of time I was informed I would be stationed in Rhinelander, WI with the Rhinelander District Office (RDO). I had never been north of Tomahawk, WI so I was very pleased to see that the beauty of the Northwoods only became more pronounced the further north I went. The RDO is within the Bemidji Area IHS that covers all tribes throughout Minnesota, Michigan, and Wisconsin. I was fortunate enough to work under the guidance of Barry Hugo, CDR William Crump, and alongside two new hires named Jeremy Blankenship and last year’s JRCOSTEP, Garret Steiner. -

A Pathfinder for Jesus Pray, Plan, Promote
Volume 5 Pittsburgh Number 3 Seventh-day Adventist Church March 2020 Pray, Plan, Promote When I first entered the ministry, I remember something my conference president told me before I was even sent to my first assignment. He said, “You’ve got to have a plan and you’ve got to work the plan. If you do those two things, you’ll be successful.” Looking back, that was solid advice. This year, we have a plan. The plan is simple really. We’re going to offer an evangelistic series in the fall to try to reach people with the good news of Jesus’ soon return. We will have events leading up to that series so we can break down barriers and make new contacts. However, it occurs to me that if the plan only exists in the mind of the pastor, not much will happen. So, here’s what we’re going to be doing leading up to that series. We are going to pray; we are go- ing to plan; and we are going to promote. Let’s start with prayer. “Prayer is the key in the hand of faith to unlock heaven’s storehouse.” We certainly want God’s blessing on our series, so we have established a prayer team leader to make sure the meetings are bathed with our petitions to God. Esther Chacha (Pittsburgh) and Cindy Bennett (New Brighton) will be leading out our prayer teams immediately after church each Sabbath. They will be meet- ing with their groups, that all are welcome to join, in the room behind the organ at the front of the sanctu- ary. -

Columbia • • Unimvisitor the First Two Hundred
columbia • • unimVISItOr a supplement to the review and herald THE education department of the Potomac Conference cele- brated the Bicentennial with a massive weekend fair on May 1 and 2, 1976. The attendance re- sembled camp meeting, with the police estimating that up to 4,000 people were at the festivities. Titled "The First Two Hun- dred," the two-day program began with a Saturday night musi- cal festival in the Takoma Academy gym, coordinated by Clarence Dunbebin, Sligo Elemen- tary School principal. It featured the Beltsville, Sligo, and J. N. Andrews school choirs with an all patriotic program, and ended with a massed choir of all the par- ticipating schools and a parade of the flags of all 50 States, led by a costumed "Uncle Sam." The Sunday program began at 10 a.m. and ran continuously until 6:30 p.m. The full day was a smorgasbord of events running simultaneously. The fair utilized the facilities of Sligo Elementary School, the Takoma Academy gym next door and the adjacent ball field. Twenty of Potomac's 27 ele- mentary schools participated. Fairgoers chose the activities they wanted to see and circulated be- tween science and art exhibits, the attractive Bicentennial booths, the outdoor field and track events, and the spelling bee in the Takoma Academy gym, directed Wayne Foster presents first-place ribbon to Keri Peterson, semifinalist winner for grade 2 in the spelling bee. The winners were Davy Mayers for grades 1 and 2; Cherie Good for grades 3 and 4; by Selma Bird. and Glenda Umali and Alvin Rhoda, who tied for grades 5 through 8. -
Music As a Cultural System: Sensibility and Interpretation
Music as a Cultural System: Sensibility and Interpretation Ian Maxwell On Interpretation My favourite Borges fable is that of Pierre Menard, the man who wanted to rewrite Don Quixote. Menard’s ambition, Borges recounts in his dry parody of literary criticism, was not merely to reproduce Cervantes’s work, but to do so spontaneously: to (re)write the Quixote not by a labour of research, nor by somehow mystically channeling the original author, but as an act of original creativity. By the end of the story Menard has succeeded, in part, producing several word-perfect passages. In the final pages of the story, Borges subjects two identical passages, one written in seventeenth-century Spain, and the other in early twentieth-century France, to a comparative analysis. Breathtakingly, Borges is able to produce compelling, and utterly discordant, interpretations of the two works. His argument—one that anticipates those of the post-structuralists by decades—is, of course, that context is everything. Texts are unstable, polysemic potentials for meaning, rather than the bearers of extractable truths. In this essay I want to do something similar. I will be writing of those listeners constituting a ‘hip hop community’ in Sydney in the mid-1990s. I will take two recordings that are, for all intents and purposes, identical in terms of instrumentation, structure and stylistic conventions. Each was recorded around the same time, and each circulated in the same milieus. One was the subject of acclaim, the other of disdain. One was considered to be ‘hip hop,’ the other not. My interest is not in aesthetic judgements about the relative worth of each of these recordings. -
FRANK GATSON Jr
FRANK GATSON Jr. - Bio Director/Artist Visual Developer Creative Director/Choreographer Frank Gatson Jr. discovered the world of dance after seeing the Broadway production of ‘The Wiz’. In 1980 he graduated from the University Of Wisconsin-Madison and began dancing for 'Up With People', an organization that travelled the world performing at all different kinds of venues even appearing at several Super Bowl halftime performances. Eventually, Frank worked his way up to official ‘dance captain’ and, finally, began to manage the show itself. He later moved to New York to study at the ‘Broadway Dance Center’ and ‘Alvin Ailey Dance Center’. After finishing his time at Ailey and Broadway centers he returned to University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and received a Masters in Theatre and Dance. He got his first professional break when he danced in Michael Jackson’s “Smooth Criminal” video and eventually moved to Los Angeles to pursue more opportunities. It was in L.A that Frank started his career choreographing for the legendary EnVogue. Attending a beauty pageant Frank had choreographed, Cindy Herron of EnVogue asked him if he'd help her choreograph her girl group's videos ‘My Lovin’ and ‘The Funky Divas Tour’. The rest is history. EnVogue exploded as Frank honed in his skills and developed what is now his signature style and as well as his ability to turn ordinary people into 'stars'. His talent and amazing vision caught the attention of Camille Yorrick at Sony Music who was in the early stages of Destiny's Child. Frank became their Creative Director and Choreographer while Destiny's Child became a huge success. -
