Dan´s parents both knew what Dan was involved in. His mother has been on the warpath to secure Dan´s release from government service. However, a short time ago their apartment was entered and all momentos on Dan were taken. This has disheartened Doreen, his mother. I have only talked to her once since then. I and others have a full set of documents and we have checked on some. Some of this came from his mother and others from B.J. Bunyon is confirmed as are many other things. I have a copy of a letter from Dover School for Boys (U.K.) that says that Danny was a scholar worthy of serious consideration for entry to Cambridge University to read medicine. He was questioned in detail by Heads of Department of Biology and Chemistry who considered that his grasp of their subjects was at a higher level than that required for the A-level course of the GCE. He took special MCAT and scored a high level and could have easily qualified for medical school. He actually applied to Cambridge, but never attended. I have copies showing entries in ● Who´s Who in the World 11th Edition (1992) ● Who´s Who in the West 24th Edition (1994-95) ● Who´s Who in Science and Engineering Premier Edition and his listing in the UNLV alumnus. These are all under his former name of Dan (Danny) B. Crain. There are photos and many other docs, and safekept copies. 212 (513) skywatcher22 11/24/2003 9:12 pm EST On the ARK, one of my trusted sources gave this answer... There is/was/has been a "Project ARK"; and as for time range, I would tend to agree with the approximate date. It coincides with a round trip to Mars. Under Arrowhead Stadium, Cheyenne Baldy Mountain, NORAD facility, Utah Facilities, AZ facilities, Carolina and ND underground facilities are real. Yup, I would tend to agree with an "Ark" scenario. (514) Dondep unlogged 11/25/2003 12:18 am EST Boomerang; Dan indicated to me that there was some alienation between himself and his parents regarding his own parenthood, leading to some estrangement between them (Dan and his parents). That doesn't mean Dan's mother doesn't love him, or dote on the grandchild(ren). That was one of the areas I agreed not to discuss in detail, and without any hypothesis that the issue could have major ramifications (as if we don't have enough!). I will honor that confidence. I'll have more later. Just a quick peek while speed-unloading moving vans. (515) Anonymous Coward 11/25/2003 12:32 am EST When I review the material that has been presented, something is reminding me to consider that much of what is written is now 'old news' and that if there are time constraints on these projects … well, you know how bosses are...) Since the Ark is to be completed late 2004, I would speculate that much of the ´working model´ of the Lotus is in place. Dr. Dan might not want to give up his source codes, but is there no being of relative goodness out there that he can turn to? Speculation has been given concerning 'chemtrails' which Dr Dan has no involvement in now and probably should be dropped as it could be a source of disinfo. More important in my mind are these man-made stargates which need to be deactivated according to the sources. Two were in Iraq, one was found. Are we there to find the other one or where is it? Can HAARP signals be sent out to find as a beacon its location? How many of these things are there in addition to the one at Frenchman? Before Dr Dan was taken to S-4, he was asked what he knew about papilloma viruses. Is that another lab created virus of which there are presently over 60 types one of which affects reproduction? (516) Jadian 11/25/2003 12:38 am EST 213 Is this the one you seek? Correspondence to Professor N.J. Severs, National Heart and Lung Institute, Imperial College, Dovehouse Street, London SW3 6LY, UK. E-mail [email protected] (517) dondep 11/25/2003 2:56 am EST A note on the Ark … Dan told me he could not tell me where it is. However, a few months ago I remember reading about an 'Ark', involving a plane crash, and subsequently this was portrayed as a 'movie set'. If I'm not mistaken, it was 'found' in Australia, and involved some recovered film from a partially-burnt camera. There was some talk on this very Forum about it. I know the Ark plays an important role in our (humankind's) destiny. My (limited) understanding is that it is aboard this Ark that the world-seed Dr B is working on will be placed, leading to our continued evolution into the J-rod form of humanoid. On a related note, I see a lot of progress on the Dr. Severs front. Jadian-- thanks for that email address for him. We'll use it. Human Subject has done some good research with some promising links I'll be checking shortly. Because if "Nicky knows", we want to know why and what too! (518) Anonymous Coward 11/25/2003 3:12 am EST Don-- the previous post on this thread concerning the Ark had it back in Jerusalem covered with some precious Blood. The Ark that Dr Dan speaks of must be as DNA samples and other building blocks of Earth's life, along with the rest of his findings in mathematics, sacred geometry, particle physics, and whatever else we know about in religious and other texts on the outbound track. In relating to the Vishnu Schist, we have the earliest rock existing at the time of the creation of life, but since that formation had been metamorphosed by the Zoroaster intrusion, all traces of life would have been destroyed. Interestingly enough, there is a 750 million year gap of missing from geologic record. Wonder what Frenchman really holds?! (519) Ambilac 11/25/2003 3:22 am EST Re- Prof Severs… not too sure if this is the one you mentioned in previous post, but check the full details, as I notice there was a minor discrepancy in the e-mail so here are the full details: Professor Nicholas J Severs Position Professor Department National Heart and Lung Institute Faculty of Medicine Telephone +44 (0)20 7351 8140 Email [email protected] 214 He is a heart specialist, but has done much research on mouse cells etc. To get a full list of his research papers go here.. http://www1.imperial.ac.uk/medicine/about/divisions/nhli/cardio/cardiacmed/people/n.severs.html Of course we may be on the wrong path altogether. If you want me to e-mail the guy, let me know as I will mail from an ac. UK address, he will be more likely to reply from an institute address here in UK Howard (520) Crackajack 11/25/2003 3:39 am EST Dondep, I recall something about that "burnt camera" scenario. Wasn't it the 8th March 2003 website, which subsequently turned out to be a hoax?? Go get 'em, Zack :)) Bill, have you heard of this Dr Severs? Did Dan ever mention someone by this name? (521) Yikes! :) 11/25/2003 4:12 am EST "Dondep, I recall something about that "burnt camera" scenario. Wasn't it the 8th March 2003 website, which subsequently turned out to be a hoax??" The March 8th thing may have been a hoax, but it is amazingly similar (nearly identical from the front or nose of the vessel) to the "Ark" ship depicted in the circa 1951 movie by George Pal called "When Worlds Collide", which was based on the book by Velikovsky, Worlds In Collision. In this movie -- as in the March 8th photos -- the vessel is considered an Ark (I believe it also had 'Ark' written on the side of the ship -- depicted in the movie -- as in the March 8th photos), and is situated to go down and then up a huge track to jetison itself into space (although the March 8th vessel was said to be more of a giant submarine--who knows?). The track is almost identical in the March 8th photos, as the one depicted in the early 1950s movie. When the group of survivors, selected by lottery and necessity, leave their planet (with the rest of the population kept in the dark about their impending doom), because of a planetary impact and resulting pole-shift that cannot be prevented.

This, we should stress, was totally legal. According to YouTube, paid advertising counts as a ‘view’ when someone watches a complete advert that is 11-30 seconds long; when someone watches at least 30 seconds of an ad that is more than 30 seconds long; and when someone interacts with the ad. In this case the ‘ad’ was a clip of the song. It’s also a widespread practice, particularly in Asia and Latin America, where TrueView ads are significantly cheaper than in other parts of the world. “The whole fucking industry does paid views,” Times Music COO Mandar Thakur told the All About Music conference in Mumbai in August. An investigation by Rolling Stone suggested the same was WHEN MUSIC VIDEO true in Latin America, where labels might pay up to $100k for up to 12m additional VIewTUBE PLAYS GET JUICED YouTube views.

Gunzenhauser, Ph.D., Associate Professor ii Copyright © by Osly Flores 2017 iii THE NEW “EYES ON THE PRIZE”: SCHOOL LEADERS’ PURSUIT OF EQUITY Osly Flores, EdD University of Pittsburgh, 2017 This study uses narrative inquiry to collect the lived experiences of eight school leaders who are guiding their schools under equitable practices. The value of narrative inquiry is that human experience is told and relived through those narrative stories of the past, of the present, and which will influence the future. In the field of education and school leadership, equity is hard to define, understand, and demonstrate. Consequently, there is a need to further study school leaders and their views, practices, and implementation of equity. This study captures school leaders’ conceptions of equity and the processes towards its realization and/or attainment. I present several significant findings using analysis of “resonant threads” and critical race theory. The findings of this study reveal distinct (and overlapping) perspectives and actions that participants took in their driven commitment toward equity.
