Foree and his wife purchased a large piece of property at the corner of the intersection of Williams Street and Clark Street to construct a two‐story home. The house was situated to face off of Clark Street and included extensive landscaping and a large front porch for family gatherings. Judge Foree was an attorney and a County Judge from 1898 until 1902. He also served as the Ex Officio County School Superintendent. On April 13, 1935, Bee M. Foree sold three tracts of land to Annie Coughran Edwards for the sum of $3,000.00. These tracts include the corner lot of what is today 602 E. Williams Street. Upon purchasing the Foree house the Williams hired Thomas Lawson Lawhorn and John Henry Basham to construct a new home for them. The home was completed later that year and cost approximately $3,600. From crystal doorknobs to leaded glass French doors, Mr. Lawhorn and Basham spared no expense in the construction of the home. The outside of the home was designed in Colonial Revival style with many apparent signs of the Art deco era inside. .

  • Political History of Nevada: Chapter 1
    Political History of Nevada Chapter 1 Politics in Nevada, Circa 2016 37 CHAPTER 1: POLITICS IN NEVADA, CIRCA 2016 Nevada: A Brief Historiography By EMERSON MARCUS in Nevada Politics State Historian, Nevada National Guard Th e Political History of Nevada is the quintessential reference book of Nevada elections and past public servants of this State. Journalists, authors, politicians, and historians have used this offi cial reference for a variety of questions. In 1910, the Nevada Secretary of State’s Offi ce fi rst compiled the data. Th e Offi ce updated the data 30 years later in 1940 “to meet a very defi nite and increasing interest in the political history of Nevada,” and has periodically updated it since. Th is is the fi rst edition following the Silver State’s sesquicentennial, and the State’s yearlong celebration of 150 years of Statehood in 2014. But this brief article will look to examine something other than political data. It’s more about the body of historical work concerning the subject of Nevada’s political history—a brief historiography. A short list of its contributors includes Dan De Quille and Mark Twain; Sam Davis and James Scrugham; Jeanne Wier and Anne Martin; Richard Lillard and Gilman Ostrander; Mary Ellen Glass and Effi e Mona Mack; Russell Elliott and James Hulse; William Rowley and Michael Green. Th eir works standout as essential secondary sources of Nevada history. For instance, Twain’s Roughing It (1872), De Quille’s Big Bonanza (1876) and Eliot Lord’s Comstock Mining & Mines (1883) off er an in-depth and anecdote-rich— whether fact or fi ction—glance into early Nevada and its mining camp way of life.

  • Archons (Commanders) [NOTICE: They Are NOT Anlien Parasites], and Then, in a Mirror Image of the Great Emanations of the Pleroma, Hundreds of Lesser Angels
    A R C H O N S HIDDEN RULERS THROUGH THE AGES A R C H O N S HIDDEN RULERS THROUGH THE AGES WATCH THIS IMPORTANT VIDEO UFOs, Aliens, and the Question of Contact MUST-SEE THE OCCULT REASON FOR PSYCHOPATHY Organic Portals: Aliens and Psychopaths KNOWLEDGE THROUGH GNOSIS Boris Mouravieff - GNOSIS IN THE BEGINNING ...1 The Gnostic core belief was a strong dualism: that the world of matter was deadening and inferior to a remote nonphysical home, to which an interior divine spark in most humans aspired to return after death. This led them to an absorption with the Jewish creation myths in Genesis, which they obsessively reinterpreted to formulate allegorical explanations of how humans ended up trapped in the world of matter. The basic Gnostic story, which varied in details from teacher to teacher, was this: In the beginning there was an unknowable, immaterial, and invisible God, sometimes called the Father of All and sometimes by other names. “He” was neither male nor female, and was composed of an implicitly finite amount of a living nonphysical substance. Surrounding this God was a great empty region called the Pleroma (the fullness). Beyond the Pleroma lay empty space. The God acted to fill the Pleroma through a series of emanations, a squeezing off of small portions of his/its nonphysical energetic divine material. In most accounts there are thirty emanations in fifteen complementary pairs, each getting slightly less of the divine material and therefore being slightly weaker. The emanations are called Aeons (eternities) and are mostly named personifications in Greek of abstract ideas.

    PURLOINED PATHS | LAYOFFS AND LESSONS | BOOKS FOR THE EREMOCENE High Country ForN people whoews care about the West Grizzly Face-Off The Yellowstone grizzly population is poised to lose federal protections — for better or worse By Gloria Dickie May 16, 2016 | $5 | Vol. 48 No. 8 | www.hcn.org 48 No. | $5 Vol. 2016 16, May CONTENTS Editor’s note Grizzly fascination The professor’s assignment was open-ended: Get together with another graduate student and write about a current natural resource dilemma, one with lots of competing players. Both topic and partner came readily to mind: The Yellowstone grizzly bear intrigued not only me, but also my vivacious, intelligent colleague, Ann Harvey. That was back in 1985. The other day, I found our report buried deep inside an old file cabinet. It’s not poetry, but it captures the flavor of the landscape, as well as the politics of a place that has been one of my journalistic foci for decades now. And I am still friends with Ann, who has lived in the greater Yellowstone ecosystem ever since, and who continues to be an ardent wildlife advocate. Here’s the thing about grizzly bears: They create a human ecosystem every bit as interesting as the natural one. And that system is also populated by fierce and persistent individuals. Ann is one of many who have remained in the grizzly-shaped system for Yellowstone Valley photo guide, outtter and hunter Jim Laybourn wears a bear costume to help send a message at the Yellowstone Ecosystem Subcommittee meeting in Teton Village last November.

  • Effects on College Outcomes by Race/Ethnicity and Course Modality
    High School Dual Enrollment in Florida: Effects on College Outcomes by Race/Ethnicity and Course Modality Summary Research Report Vivian Yuen Ting Liu CCRC Veronica Minaya CCRC Qing Zhang University of California, Irvine Di Xu University of California, Irvine October 2020 Address correspondence to: Vivian Yuen Ting Liu Postdoctoral Research Associate Community College Research Center Teachers College, Columbia University 525 W. 120th St., Box 174 New York, NY 10027 212-678-3091 Email: [email protected] Funding for this study was provided by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. The findings and conclusions contained within are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect positions or policies of the foundation. Abstract This report presents findings on the relationship between taking community college dual enrollment courses—in which high school students earn high school and college credits simultaneously—and college outcomes among Florida public high school students. It analyses dual enrollment course-taking by racial/ethnic group (Black, Hispanic, White) and course modality (face-to-face on-college-campus, face-to-face off- campus, and online). The report includes (1) a descriptive analysis of the demographic characteristics and outcomes of dual enrollment participants and (2) multivariate regression analyses of the associations between dual enrollment participation and college outcomes, controlling for a rich set of student and school characteristics. The analyses use transcript-level unit record data on two cohorts of Florida students who started public high school in 2007 and 2012 and were tracked through high school and into Florida state colleges (community colleges) and universities. We find that Florida high school students who took dual enrollment courses were more likely to be White, female, and from more affluent backgrounds than those who did not take dual enrollment courses.

  • High School Dual Enrollment Effects on College Outcomes by Race/Ethnicity and Course Modality
    High School Dual Enrollment Effects on College Outcomes by Race/Ethnicity and Course Modality A CCRC study of dual enrollment in Florida finds that while there are substantial participation gaps by race/ethnicity, Black, Hispanic, and White high school students all appear to benefit from taking dual enrollment courses. The vast majority of dual enrollment students enroll in such courses through community colleges, and most students take dual enrollment courses face-to-face on a college campus or face-to-face off-campus, though some students (about 9%) take the courses primarily online. Using descriptive and multivariable regression analysis, CCRC researchers examined the college outcomes of Florida public high school students (who were 9th graders in 2007 and 2012) who did and did not take dual enrollment courses. Although the researchers controlled for a rich set of student and school characteristics, their analysis does not allow for causal inferences. Key Findings Participation Rates PARTICIPATION Dual enrollment students were substantially more likely to be White and female and to not participate in free or reduced- price lunch (FRPL) than students who did not participate in dual enrollment. COLLEGE OUTCOMES Taking dual enrollment courses is positively associated with better college outcomes—including immediate college enrollment and degree completion— across all three racial/ethnic groups. However, White dual enrollment students were more likely to attend both community colleges (called state colleges in Florida) and state universities than their White non-dual enrollment peers, whereas Black and Hispanic dual enrollment students were more likely to attend only state universities compared with their non-dual enrollment peers.
