Steven A. Mullins Updated Web Based GIS Tool Is A Page Kent Connections Aug 2013 A Newsletter Published by Kent County Levy Court for its Employees August 2013 Employee of the Month: Steven A. Mullins The Kent County department heads have selected STEVEN A. MULLINS from the Department of Pub- lic Works as the August 2013 Employee of the Month. Steve, a Kent County employee since November 2007, is a Maintenance Me- chanic III in the Wastewater Facilities Division. He serves as a crew leader maintaining mainly the equipment at the Wastewater Treatment Plant but also provides special ex- pertise to the more complex pumping station repairs. Steve was nominated for his courage under heavy “spray”. He and a lot of other Public Works employees had family plans scheduled for this past Father’s Day. However, a complex air release valve failure on the main wastewater transmission sys- tem dictated otherwise. Despite not being “on call”, Steve reported for duty and con- tributed valuable technical expertise to the repair effort. In the end, it came down to a live repair which most people would walk away from, but not Steve. He had the tools, knowledge and courage to get the job done when Assistant Public Works Director KEITH POWELL needed him most. As a result of his actions the environmental damage of INSIDE this sewer overflow was limited and the difficult repair was successfully 8 - Birthdays completed. 12 - Calendar According to Public Works Director HANS MEDLARZ, “Steve is an 11 - Employee Council employee who performs at Employee of the Month levels every day.

Updated web based GIS tool is a hit By Danielle Lamborn, GIS Specialist It’s been more than a decade since Kent County went digital. Before that zoning maps, flood maps, sewer infrastructure maps, property maps and every other detail which is part and parcel of land use was maintained on paper. Geographical Information Systems was in its infancy at the time, so Kent County contracted out the digitizing and updating of these maps. In the meantime, citizens have become more technologically savvy and demand more real time information at the click of a button. Kent Connections is published for the employees and retirees So it wasn’t long before public demand out- of Kent County Levy Court using Microsoft Publisher® & Microsoft PowerPoint®.

RAYNOR MULLINS, ) ) Plaintiff, ) ) No. 5:17-CV-319-REW-CJS v. ) ) STEPHANOS KYRKANIDES, ) OPINION AND ORDER Individually and in his Official Capacity ) as Dean of the University of Kentucky ) College of Dentistry, ) Defendant. *** *** *** *** Defendant Stephanos Kyrkanides, in both his individual capacity and his official capacity as Dean of the University of Kentucky College of Dentistry (“UKCOD”), moves for summary judgment on Plaintiff Dr. Raynor Mullins’s First Amendment retaliation Complaint brought under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. DE #44. The motion is fully briefed (DE ##49, 50), with extensive citations to the lengthy record. Summary judgment practice is not about fact-finding, but rather assessing whether there are material facts in genuine dispute to be resolved via trial. Here, the epic story of academic intrigue and the place of free speech at the UKCOD, involving contested interactions between Dr. Mullins, Dean Kyrkanides1, and others, requires a trial. The Court does not pick between reasonably supported versions, and a jury will decide what actually happened. Except as to a limited part, the Court DENIES the motion for summary judgment. 1 The Dean arrived at the UKCOD in 2015 at the start of the academic year. See DE #49-13 (Kyrkanides Dep.) at 24–25. He was new to the Commonwealth, having held prior posts in the Department of Dentistry at the University of Rochester and the School of Dental Medicine at Stony Brook University, both in New York.

  • On the Celtic Languages of the British Isles: a Statistical Survey
    On the CELTICLANGUAGES ilz the BRITISHISLES; n STATISTICAL SURVEY.By E. Q. RAVENSTEIN,EsQ., F.R.G.S., kc.* [Read before the Statistical Society, 15th April, 1879.1 OF all subjects of statistical inquiry, that relating to the nationality of the inhabitants of one and the same State, is one of the most interesting. In some of the great empires of the continent it is of vital importance. Until the beginning of this century, a process of amalgamation and consolidation had been going on in most countries of Europe, the weaker nationalities adopting the languages of their more powerful neighbours. But the spirit of nationality is abroad now. In its name have been carried on some of the most tremendous wars our age has witnessed, and even the smaller national fractions are loudly asserting their existence. The reign of one universal language appears to be more remote than ever before. It appeared to me that an inquiry into the geographical dis- tribution and numerical strength of the non-English speaking inhabitants of the British Isles might prove of interest to the members of the Statistical Society. Hence this paper. Fortunately, a question of language is not likely in these islands to lead to civil discord or dismemberment. No one dreams of ousting English from the place of vantage it holds, and even though the Irish Home Rulers succeeded in setting up a parliament of their own, its pro- ceedings would have to be carried on in English. Yet, in spite of the comparative insignificance of the Celtic tongues which survive amongst us, this question of race and language abounds in interest.
