  • Alan Cameron, a Scotch Loyalist in the American Revolution
    ALAN CAMERON, A SCOTCH LOYALIST IN THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION By WILLIAM THOMAS JOHNSON Bucknell University, Lewisburg L ATE in November of the year 1775, a few miles north of L Hagerstown, Maryland, three traveling gentlemen were arrested on suspicion of being Loyalists. These men, Alan Cam- eron, Dr. John Ferdinand Dalziel Smyth, and Dr. John Connolly, were promptly brought before the local Committee of Safety of Frederick County, which sat at Frederick Town, and "examina- tions were taken." Alan Cameron, the subject of this narration, was born in 1753 in Errach, Invernessshire, Scotland, and was the head of a branch of the great clan Cameron. In his early years he had won athletic reputation in his native glens and at an early age had made his way to the American colonies of England. According to his testi- mony before the Committee, Alan Cameron said he had left Scotland because of an affair of honor and had come to Virginia with the purpose of purchasing lands in the back country, and intended to go to Henderson for that purpose. But due to con- ditions prevailing at that time (Nov., 1775) he had found it difficult to pass through the "Back Country."2 He further testi- fied that, in the course of his sojourn in Virginia, he had met Lord Dunmore, governor of the Virginia colony, who had per- suaded him, with the promise of advancement, "to accept a Commission as first Lieutenant in a Regiment to be raised by Lieutenant Colonel (John) Connolly."3 As might have been expected of one who was fast becoming a staunch Loyalist, Alan Cameron did not tell the whole truth before this committee.

  • Kent Denver Summer Reading Guide: Upper School
    VER EN SC D H T O N O E L K Summer Reading Guide 2016 Upper School S i 2 n c e 1 9 2 Where will books take you this summer? Kent Denver School | 4000 E. Quincy Ave., Englewood, CO 80113 1 Table of Contents Summer Reading at Kent Denver 3 Upper School Reading Program Statement 4 Upper School Recommendations 5 The Reader’s Bill of Rights 64 2 Summer Reading at Kent Denver School “It is what you read when you don’t have to that determines what you will be when you can’t help it.” Oscar Wilde School-Wide Approach During the school year, students and adults report that they are so busy with school and work that they have very little time to read for pleasure. Sure, students read, but often only what they are assigned, what has been chosen for them. An assigned reading system inadvertently implies that students should only read when it is required. In various discussions the Kent Denver faculty has confirmed—virtually in one voice—that summer should be a time for all of us to recharge without the pressures of homework and school, and to rediscover reading for pleasure. Choice of texts forms the foundation of the summer shift away from “what do I have to read?” to “what do I want to read?” The research on the efficacy of summer read- ing overwhelmingly supports that students get more from summer reading when they choose their own texts. Choice allows students to pick books at reading levels appropriate to their own levels and to choose topics and genres about which they truly care.

  • Sold out 7Th Annual Monster Energy Aftershock Wraps Biggest Year
    Date: October 18, 2018 Sold Out 7th Annual Monster Energy Aftershock Wraps Biggest Year Ever With 60,000 In Attendance October 13 & 14 At Discovery Park In Sacramento, CA With System Of A Down, Deftones & More Monster Energy Aftershock wrapped its biggest year ever, with 60,000 in attendance over a sold- out weekend October 13 & 14 at Discovery Park in Sacramento, CA. System Of A Down and Sacramento natives Deftones headlined the 7th annual festival, joined by Alice In Chains, Incubus, Godsmack, Shinedown, 311, Slash featuring Myles Kennedy And The Conspirators, At The Drive In, Seether and many more. Even with expanded capacity for this year’s festival, weekend passes for Monster Energy Aftershock were sold out months in advance. The festival wrapped up with an unforgettable performance from System Of A Down, who made their Monster Energy Aftershock debut with one of their first appearances in the States in three years, as the band celebrates the 20th anniversary of their landmark self-titled first album. Saturday night was capped off by local favorites Deftones, who headlined the festival for the first time (after appearing previously in 2012 and 2015), nearly seven years since their last headlining hometown performance. On Saturday afternoon, Monster Energy Aftershock performers and special guests also came together to pay tribute to the late Vinnie Paul, who had been scheduled to play Aftershock with his band Hellyeah before his unexpected passing in June. Hosted and curated by SiriusXM’s Jose Mangin, and anchored by Hellyeah’s Kyle Sanders on bass and KYNG’s Pepe Clarke playing Vinnie Paul’s own Hellyeah drum kit, the tribute featured a revolving cast of guitarists and vocalists playing songs from Damageplan and Pantera.

RACC is focused on understanding the effects of changing climate on the Lake Champlain Basin and to develop adaptive management strategies for the Basin. RACC builds transdisciplinary teams of social and natural scientists to study the Lake Champlain Basin as a coupled human and natural system affected by climate change. We combine collections of data on physical processes, governance, and land use with complex systems modeling. Models will enable scenario testing to help Basin managers and policy makers investigate how adaptive management can be designed and implemented to respond to climate change. CWDD increases the Vermont Science-Technology-Engineering-Math (STEM) workforce in size and diversity through multiple approaches: Inspire diverse high school students and undergraduates to enter STEM careers by involving them directly in RACC research.
