Michael Francis Kazingnuk's the Eskimo History Story The Eskimo History Story as told by Michael Francis Kazingnuk Transcribed by Kawerak’s Social Science Program Introduction Dear Reader, The Kawerak Social Science Program is happy to share this unique piece of history with you. This document is a typed rendering of a handwritten document by Michael Francis Kazingnuk which he titled: The Eskimo History Story. Mr. Kazingnuk was born on Big Diomede Island and in 1937 began the process of writing down the history of his people, from his perspective. His handwritten document is over 500 pages long and includes personal reflections and experiences, Iñupiaq vocabulary, traditional stories, song lyrics and other invaluable information. The original document is housed at the Alaska State Library (asl_MS_197 folders 1-5). The original document can be found on the Alaska State Library’s website at http://www.library.state.ak.us/hist/hist_docs/docs/asl_MS_197.pdf. We have included, in these introductory pages, a few images of the handwritten pages so that the reader can get a sense of that original document. Kawerak’s Social Science Program decided to undertake the large task of typing up the entire document so that it would be more easily accessible to the Native Village of Diomede, other residents of the Bering Strait region, researchers, and other interested parties. Lucinda Wieler, former Social Science Program Research Specialist, transcribed and proofed the majority of this document over the course of many months. Her patience and careful work are greatly appreciated. Please note that the document was transcribed word-for-word, preserving the original spelling, punctuation and grammar. We strove to be as accurate as possible, though due to the handwritten nature of the original text, there may be some errors in transcription. If you plan to use quotations from this document in other works, we encourage you to re-visit the original handwritten version. The document’s original formatting was also preserved. For example, one handwritten line is equivalent to one typed line in this document, and the text seen on one typed page in this document matches the handwritten text on one page in the original document. This was done so that the reader can more easily consult the original document to find the exact sections of text they are looking for. There are several places in the text where you will see brackets [ ]. These are not original to the text and were inserted by Kawerak to indicate our uncertainty about the transcription (e.g. [?]) or to convey other important information to the reader. We hope that you enjoy and find value in Mr. Kazingnuk’s work, as we have! Julie Raymond-Yakoubian Nome, Alaska 2017 Kawerak Inc.

Starting with Michener's early life experiences in Doylestown (Pennsylvania), the conversation includes his family's poverty, his wanderings across the United States, and his reading at the local public library. The dialogue includes his education at Swarthmore College (Pennsylvania), St. Andrews University (Scotland), Colorado State University (Fort Collins, Colorado) where he became a social studies teacher, and Harvard (Cambridge, Massachusetts) where he pursued, but did not complete, a Ph.D. in education. Michener's experiences as a textbook editor at Macmillan Publishers and in the U.S. Navy during World War II are part of the discourse. The exchange elaborates on how Michener began to write fiction, focuses on his great success as a writer, and notes that he and his wife donated over $100 million to educational institutions over the years.

    Bowdoin College Commencement 1992 One of America’s leading writers of historical fiction, JAMES A. MICHENER has published more than 30 books. His writing career began with the publication in 1947 of a book of interrelated stories titled Tales of the South Pacific, based upon his experiences in the U.S. Navy where he served on 49 different Pacific islands. The work won the 1947 Pulitzer Prize, and inspired one of the most popular Broadway musicals of all time, Rodgers and Hammerstein’s South Pacific, which won its own Pulitzer Prize. Michener’s first book set the course for his career, which would feature works about many cultures with emphasis on the relationships between different peoples and the need to overcome ignorance and prejudice. Random House has published Michener’s works on Japan (Sayonara), Hawaii (Hawaii), Spain (Iberia), Southeast Asia (The Voice of Asia), South Africa (The Covenant) and Poland (Poland), among others. Michener has also written a number of works about the United States, including Centennial, which became a television series, Chesapeake, and Texas.

  • The Alpha and Omega of Deadly Heresies: a Treatise on the Cause and Effect Relationship in the Teachings of Kellogg and Ballenger 1
    The Alpha and Omega of Deadly Heresies: A Treatise on the Cause and Effect Relationship in the Teachings of Kellogg and Ballenger 1 During the earliest years of the twentieth century, the Seventh-day Adventist church experienced one of its greatest crises. Leading men within the ministry and medical fields began believing and teaching a God that was in all nature. The belief in God as a personal Being was replaced with a spiritualised essence which had much in common with pantheism. Riding at the head of this tide of false teachings was John Harvey Kellogg, a leading physician. He was a brilliant man, who, full of ambition and unsubmitted to God, sought prominence and power within the church. His pantheistic teachings were made prominent and popularised in his book titled The Living Temple , which was published in the first months of 1903. This period of Adventist history is often spoken of as the Kellogg Crisis. The ministry of Ellen White was integral in meeting the errors of Kellogg and his associates as well as the spirit behind them. She spoke of the principles they used in coming to their teachings as “the alpha of a train of heresies,” 2 and “the alpha of deadly heresies.” 3 She spoke of an “omega” that would follow, “in a little while.” 4 Hot on the heels of this falling away came Albion Fox Ballenger. Ballenger was a powerful preacher in the church and a leading figure in the work in Great Britain before he departed from the truth. He accepted and taught the Protestant understanding that Christ entered the Most Holy Place upon His ascension, denying the two-apartment Sanctuary ministry in Heaven as the church taught.

The State Government announced in a visit to the school by the Premier Colin Barnett that Cecil Andrews Senior High School would have an academic focus, with changes to be in place for the start of the 2017 school year. A new building will be constructed for science, technology, engineering and mathematics subjects – including laboratories, a lecture theatre and preparation areas. Principal Stella Jinman said that Cecil Andrews Senior High School welcomed a fresh vision. “We’re passionate about education – my team of educators are very dedicated and hard-working,” Ms Jinman said. “We’re delighted that the Government is investing in us, in an area of need. I am delighted Cecil Andrews has been recognised as a hub for learning in the community. This funding will see a further expansion of our high quality teaching and learning programs. The change of focus provides opportunities to hand select the very best specialist academic staff for the extension program for Year 7s to Year 10s, ensuring the very best outcomes for our students. “I think it will be a very modern, 21st century look at what can be done, thinking about an imaginative and creative model of education that is responsive to the community.
