This is more the kind of thing that 8 would normally be on the Consent Agenda, but 9 obviously because of the nature of this and size of 10 this request it is an action. 11 And Ms. Sacrey I believe is here. Welcome. If 12 you'll come on up and introduce this item -- or Mr. 13 Rogers, whoever is coming up today. 14 MS. SACREY: Good morning. Anita Sacrey. I'm 15 the coordinator of State LEA funds and loans and 16 bonds. And this item was presented to the Loans and 17 Bonds Committee for discussion in our November -- our 18 regular November meeting, and the Committee tabled 19 the application due to concerns about this district 20 using fund balances during this school year. And 21 just -- we wanted to make sure that they were going 22 to be able to handle the second lien bond with no 23 additional revenue, and so we asked the District to 24 come in and meet with us as a committee in December, 25 which they did and presented a five-year budget Sharon Hill Court Reporting (501) 680-0888 - January 10, 2019 7 1 projection on how they would handle these bond 2 payments. And the Committee, in December, met and 3 was satisfied with the plan that was presented. The 4 District took into account their declining 5 enrollment; they projected a 2% increase in 6 assessment, presented a plan for reducing 7 expenditures by 3%, and reducing staff through 8 attrition. And the committee was satisfied enough to 9 recommend approval of this application to the Board. 10 CHAIRMAN BARTH: Great. Thank you, Ms. Sacrey. 11 I'll start over here. Any questions on this 12 side? 13 Ms. Zook. 14 MS. ZOOK: If I'm recalling correctly, Pulaski 15 County Special School District passed a millage that 16 is for a new high school in Sylvan Hills. Can that 17 money be used in any other way, other than to fund 18 the building of that school? Does that play into 19 their abilities here? 20 MS. SACREY: I would have to defer. We have 21 some Pulaski County -- 22 COMMISSIONER KEY: Yeah. I think that question 23 is probably best deferred to the County or to, you 24 know, Mr. Trumper or any of his team that are here as 25 well. So with y'all's permission, we can -- Sharon Hill Court Reporting (501) 680-0888 - January 10, 2019 8 1 CHAIRMAN BARTH: Of course. 2 COMMISSIONER KEY: -- ask them to come on up -- 3 or the superintendent. 4 CHAIRMAN BARTH: Welcome. 5 SUPT. McNULTY: Good morning. Great question. 6 No, it cannot. 7 CHAIRMAN BARTH: If you'll just introduce 8 yourself for the record. 9 SUPT. McNULTY: Oh. Dr. Charles McNulty, 10 superintendent, Pulaski County School District. 11 CHAIRMAN BARTH: Welcome. 12 SUPT. McNULTY: No. It's tied to the Sylvan 13 Hills construction. 14 CHAIRMAN BARTH: Okay. 15 MS. ZOOK: I move that we -- 16 CHAIRMAN BARTH: Let me see if there are any 17 questions over here. Any -- 18 Yeah, Dr. Hill? 19 DR. HILL: No, I didn't have any. 20 CHAIRMAN BARTH: Okay. Any other questions? 21 All right. Ms. Zook. 22 MS. ZOOK: I move that we approve the use of 23 second lien bonds or the issuance of second lien 24 bonds for the Pulaski County Special School District, 25 based on the ADE's recommendation. Sharon Hill Court Reporting (501) 680-0888 - January 10, 2019 9 1 DR. HILL: Second. 2 CHAIRMAN BARTH: All right. Motion by Ms. Zook, 3 second by Dr. Hill. 4 All in favor say "aye." 5 (UNANIMOUS CHORUS OF AYES) 6 CHAIRMAN BARTH: Opposed, same sign. 7 Thank you. 8 MS. SACREY: Thank you. 9 CHAIRMAN BARTH: Thank y'all for being here this 10 morning. 11 A-2: PETITION FOR MINIMUM SCHOOL DISTRICT SIZE WAIVERS - 12 ARKANSAS CODE ANNOTATED §6-13-1613 13 CHAIRMAN BARTH: Okay. We now move down to two 14 minimum size district -- Minimum School District Size 15 waivers, and Ms. Freno is going to walk us through. 16 We see these every once-in-a-while and we're here 17 again. 18 MS. FRENO: Yes. Thank you, Dr. Barth. Lori 19 Freno, Department of Education. 20 This month the Board is going to be considering 21 two Minimum School District Size waivers. The first 22 will be the Strong-Huttig School District and the 23 second will be the Lead Hill School District. 24 Just as a way of explanation a little bit, if a 25 school district is below 350 students according to Sharon Hill Court Reporting (501) 680-0888 - January 10, 2019 10 1 the District's average daily membership for two years 2 immediately preceding the current school year they 3 are placed on what's called the Consolidation List, 4 and this is under the law. And I gave you like a 5 little summary with the packet, with the agenda 6 packet, and it lists the code section. And if a 7 school district is placed on a Consolidation List 8 they can -- they either must consolidate or annex 9 with another school district or they can file a 10 petition for a Minimum School District Size waiver. 11 And to seek a waiver the district must file a 12 petition with the State Board, and according to the 13 law that governs these waivers, which is Arkansas 14 Code Annotated §6-13-1613, the State Board shall 15 grant a petition if the district demonstrates those 16 items set forth in subsection (b)(2)(a)(2)(d) of that 17 law. And you all should have a copy of that law as 18 well.

  • Medieval Heritage and Pilgrimage Walks
    Medieval Heritage and Pilgrimage Walks Cleveland Way Trail: walk the 3 miles from Rievaulx Abbey, Yorkshire to Helmsley Castle and tread in the footsteps of medieval Pilgrims along what’s now part of the Cleveland Way Trail. Camino de Santiago/Way of St James, Spain: along with trips to the Holy Land and Rome, this is the most famous medieval pilgrimage trail of all, and the most well-travelled in medieval times, at least until the advent of Black Death. Its destination point is the spot St James is said to have been buried, in the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela. Today Santiago is one of UNESCO’s World Heritage sites. Read more . the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela holds a Pilgrims’ Mass every day at noon. Walk as much or as little of it as you like. Follow the famous scallop shell symbols. A popular starting point, both today and in the Middle Ages, is either Le Puy in the Massif Central, France OR the famous medieval Abbey at Cluny, near Paris. The Spanish start is from the Pyrenees, on to Roncevalles or Jaca. These routes also take in the Via Regia and/or the Camino Frances. The Portuguese way is also popular: from the Cathedrals in either Lisbon or Porto and then crossing into Falicia/Valenca. At the end of the walk you receive a stamped certifi cate, the Compostela. To achieve this you must have walked at least 100km or cycled for 200. To walk the entire route may take months. Read more . The route has inspired many TV and fi lm productions, such as Simon Reeve’s BBC2 ‘Pilgrimage’ series (2013) and The Way (2010), written and directed by Emilio Estevez, about a father completing the pilgrimage in memory of his son who died along the Way of St James.

George Bradley, a serf, was lowered on the end of a lengthy rope. Dudley’s little experiment with another man’s existence did not result in the establishment of the fact that holes in the ground indeed did have bottoms; instead it became itself a source of legend as spinners would elaborate a just-so story according to which serf George was raving mad when hauled back to the surface, with hair turned white, and a few days later would succumb to the shock of it all.

  • Attempts at Geopolitical Restauration
    Chapter 4 Attempts at Geopolitical Restauration Apart from aspects of the empire’s internal politics (imperial ideology, divi- sions within the Constantinopolitan court elite, problematic imperial- Venetian relations) our astrological corpus also contains information regarding Baldwin ii’s foreign politics, especially on relations with the Castilian court. The estab- lished view on the Latin empire’s geopolitical position within the Byzantine region (Balkan, Aegean, Asia Minor) under Baldwin ii is that Constantinople and its dependencies were waiting to fall into the hands of the Nicaean em- peror comme un fruit mûr, as Jean Longnon has so eloquently put it: a pas- sive existence with an inevitable outcome.1 This, however, negates the fact that on the diplomatic level the emperor and his entourage in the 1240s and 1250s continued developing one project after another with a range of international partners with the aim at maintaining and ultimately restoring his empire: the 1237–1240 crusade (with papal support), the alliance with Konya in the early 1240s, the Cuman alliance in the 1240s, the diplomatic relations with the Mon- gols in the 1240s and 1250s (which appear to have inaugurated a “Black Sea policy,” as John Giebfried has suggested, although this presumably was pre- dominantly a Venetian attempt to dominate trade in the region), the project involving the Order of Santiago in 1245–1246 (again with papal support), the 1248 campaign in the Constantinopolitan region, the re-establishment of a more active imperial policy vis-à-vis the Latin Orient (Cyprus and Syria- Palestine) in the context of the Seventh Crusade (1248–1254), a possible mar- riage alliance with Trebizond in the 1250s (with the French king Louis ix mediating), and the “grand alliance” between Achaia, Epiros, Sicily, and Con- stantinople in 1257/58–1259.2 This dynamic diplomacy—although not always 1 Longnon, L’empire latin de Constantinople, 186.

ORFORDCASTLEas built by HernylI consisted of the survivingkeep surrounded by a now lok curtain wall with projecting towers. Its construction can be reliably dated from the Pipe Rolls to between 1165-66and 1172-73.The keepis thought to havebeen completed first,probably by 1167(BrOwn1964, 4-5; Brown etal 1963,11,769-71).It is of a unique type,cylindrical within but polygonal without,with three projecting rectangular towerswhich rise as turrets above the top of the main walls.It preserves its original 12th-centuryform, and later alterations appear to have been minimal. An oven in the north-east turret and a kitchen fireplace in the western projecting tower at first-floor level both incorporate fragments and wasters of ceramic floor- and roof-tiles. As long ago as 1842,it was observed that the oven was constructed of'Norman brick' (Hartshorne 1842,69).The purpose of this short paper is to establish that the tiles in both the oven and the kitchen fireplace form part of the original fabric of c.1165-67,and to discuss their significance in the light of this early date.

  • The Ten Commandments in the Medieval Schools
    The Ten Commandments in the Medieval Schools When, in the generation after Hugh, Peter Lombard (d. 1160), master of the cathedral school at Notre Dame, included the commandments in his highly influential Four Books of Sentences, the position of the Decalogue in the schools’ curriculum was virtually guaranteed. It was made certain early in the thirteenth century, when the Sentences was made the textbook for all students studying the Bible in Paris, which had itself become the European centre for biblical and theological research. See Also: The Ten Commandments: Interpreting the Bible in the Medieval World (Leiden and Boston: E. J. Brill. 2014). By Lesley Smith Harris Manchester College, Oxford University September 2014 There was surprisingly little discussion of the ten commandments in the period between Augustine of Hippo (d. 430) and the schools that grew up in twelfth-century Paris, which specialised in teaching the Bible and theology. It may have been that Augustine was thought to have covered the subject; or perhaps the Decalogue didn’t offer enough interest for commentators who were trained to look for the spiritual senses of the Old Testament text – to find those allegories or typologies which foreshadowed the coming of Christ. But the Paris schools began to read the text in different ways. Hugh (d. 1141), master of the important school at the abbey of St Victor, taught his 1 pupils that understanding the literal sense of the text was the indispensable foundation for all other readings. With that, texts like the Decalogue, solidly grounded in the literal and practical, and which might have seemed too dull for commentators to bother with, became more interesting.

  • The Reforms at the Exchequer, 1250-1270
    RICHARD CASSIDY The Reforms at the Exchequer, 1250-1270 February 2012 iBooks Author Introduction This is a slightly expanded version of a paper I presented at the European History 1150-1550 seminar at the Institute of Historical Research in London, on 17 November 2011. I have added references as endnotes, and a glossary of the more technical terms (shown in bold type). It presents some new financial information, derived from unpublished records, particularly pipe rolls and memoranda rolls, to argue that: Henry III’s financial position, on the eve of the baronial coup of 1258, was healthier than is often assumed; Henry’s financial problems were largely of his own making, particularly his absurd commitment to the Sicilian venture; and the baronial reform regime of 1258-61 achieved some success in improving the administration of the Exchequer, and maintaining the flow of government income. Richard Cassidy, King’s College London 1 iBooks Author The Reforms at the Exchequer, 1250-1270 Richard Cassidy February 2012 2 iBooks Author In 1927, Mabel Mills published a ground-breaking paper, ‘The reforms at the Exchequer (1232-1242)’.[1] Miss Mills was a pioneer in the study of the workings of the Exchequer, and her studies blazed a trail – a trail which very few have since followed. In particular, there has been little detailed study of government finances in the period of baronial reform and rebellion, in the 1250s and 1260s. Perhaps this is due to the fact that so few of the relevant records have been published, despite the survival of a wide range of Exchequer documents.

    Federal Communications Commission DA 99-164 Before the Federal Communications Commission Washington, D.C. 20554 In the Matter of ) ) Bresnan Communications Company ) CUID No. MI0222 (Negaunee) ) Complaints Regarding Cable Programming ) Services Tier Rate Increase ) ORDER Adopted: January 12, 1999 Released: January 15, 1999 By the Acting Chief, Financial Analysis and Compliance Division, Cable Services Bureau: 1. In this Order we consider complaints about the rates charged by the above-referenced operator ("Operator") for its cable programming services tier ("CPST") in the community referenced above. Operator has chosen to attempt to justify its CPST rates through benchmark showings on FCC Form 1200, multiple FCC Form 1210s, multiple FCC Form 1240s and FCC Form 1235. We have already issued an order in which we found that Operator's CPST rates in effect prior to May 15, 1994 were reasonable. 1 Accordingly, this Order addresses only the reasonableness of Operator's CPST rates in effect after May 14, 1994. 2. Under the Communications Act,2 the Federal Communications Commission ("Commission") is authorized to review the CPST rates of cable systems not subject to effective competition to ensure that rates charged are not unreasonable. If the Commission finds the rate to be unreasonable, it shall determine the correct rate and any refund liability.3 The filing of a complete and timely complaint triggers an obligation upon the cable operator to file a justification of its CPST rates.4 The Operator has the burden of demonstrating that the CPST rates complained about are reasonable.5 3. To justify rates for the period beginning May 15, 1994, operators must use the FCC Form 1200 series.6 Operators are permitted to make changes to their rates on a quarterly basis using FCC Form 1210.7 Operators may adjust their rates on an annual basis using FCC Form 1240.8 Additionally, an 1 See In The Matter of Bresnan Communications Company, 10 FCC Red 3428 (1995).

  • Dietary Decadence and Dynastic Decline in the Mongol Empire” by John Masson Smith, Jr
    Asian Topics in World History | Columbia University http://afe.easia.columbia.edu/mongols THE MONGOLS IN WORLD HISTORY “Dietary Decadence and Dynastic Decline in the Mongol Empire” by John Masson Smith, Jr. Journal of Asian History, vol. 34, no. 1, 2000 Reprinted with permission from the publisher, Harrassowitz Publishing House. Most Mongol rulers lived short lives. Those in the Middle East died, on average, at about age 38, and the successors of Qubilai (Khubilai) in the Far East at 33 (adding in Qubilai raises the average since he lived, atypically, for 78 years; Chinggis lived into his 60s; for the rest, few passed 50). Comparison of the Mongol and Manchu (Qing) dynasties shows the importance of longevity. In each of the Mongol realms of China, the Middle East and the Golden Horde, an average of eleven Mongols ruled for an average of about a century (107 years): Qubilai and nine successors ruled China for 110 years (1260-1370); the Golden Horde had twelve khans in 132 years (1227-1359); and nine Mongols held the Middle East for 80 years (1255-1335). Nine Manchus, with an average reign of 29 years, occupied the throne of China for over two and a half centuries (1644 -1908). The Middle Eastern Mongol dynasty had further problems: high infant mortality and infertility. Ann Lambton considers that “the possibility cannot be ruled out that once the Mongols settled in Persia, they ceased to be good breeders.”1 I suggest that the Mongols’ difficulties stemmed in large part from dietary inadequacies and improprieties. The diet of pre-imperial Mongols was simple, calorically-sufficient -- and poorly balanced.
