Located on flat sandy land two and a half hours east of Interstate 95 and just 45 minutes north of the Marine base at Camp LeJeune, the one room, one teacher school at New Bern, North Carolina, is quite a contrast from the large multi-teacher schools of western North Carolina. A year and a half ago Gordon Klocko, the su- perintendent of educa- tion for the Carolina Con- ference, was looking for a teacher to fill the va- cancy at the New Bern school. At that time there were only five students meeting in the little sanc- tuary of the New Bern church. The modest school at New Bern had its prob- lems. There were parents who felt the public school system was better equipped to teach their children. Some felt the nondenominational Christian school next door was the answer. Still others believed in the "Home Study" program. There were, however, a few at New Bern who Brandon Lee and Kelly Mulens with their teacher, Rand!

There are two major "work study" projects the children work together on when the weather turns nice in the spring: the school garden and the real estate sign prdject. A large real estate agency in town had the school repaint all of its signs, thus providing the revenue the school needs for its various school projects. Randi, in her unassum- ing way, will tell you that none of the progress at the school was possible with- out the Lord or without the help from her two teacher assistants, Jenny Pittman and Diana Smith."It shows all," reports Klock°, "what As children from the New Bern school pledge allegiance to the flag many of them can't help thinking can be done when teaching of their fathers who are serving in the Persian Gulf. and leadership skills are combined with the Holy soon making the hour-long trip to school the public school students Spirit and trust in the Lord." ❑J New Bern to enroll their children in are behind, even the honor stu- "the Lord's school." dents.

He reminded Randi, however, that he didn't want his son to be taught anything that was not in the Bible. Randi assured him that she taught only that which was in the Bible. If anything was ques- tioned, it was understood that he should stop by to discuss it with Randi. Recently the pastor's son wrote a beautiful paper on the Lord's Sabbath. To this day, the boy's father has never stopped in. "Stand Up Stand Up for Jesus" is the song sung every day for worship. The children study the Bible and Early Writings daily. Geometry, algebra, and Spanish are all part of the curriculum at the New Bern school.

As the story unfolded the Path- finders learned how God protected this man as he faced certain death from withering enemy fire. Accord- ing to some witnesses, he saved 100 soldiers. Desmond insisted it was no more then 50. The official record says 75. Before and after each meeting, dozens of Pathfinders lined up to get an autograph from this special man. Although the flurry of activity may not be as profound as it was on the island of Okinawa in 1945, Desmond and Dorothy Doss have an itinerary that takes them to many local functions and to appointments across the United States. U.S. News and World Report recently produced a six-part tele- vision series that chronicles the true-life stories of Medal of Honor winners. The sequence telling Desmond's story aired nationally on November 11, 1990.

  • South Carolina Statewide Comprehensive Multimodal Transportation Plan
    SOUTH CAROLINA STATEWIDE COMPREHENSIVE MULTIMODAL TRANSPORTATION PLAN PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT SUMMARY May 2008 PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT SUMMARY Public involvement is a key component of the state’s transportation planning process. The proactive public involvement process is one that provides complete information, timely public notice, full public access to major transportation decisions, and supports early and continuing involvement of the public in developing transportation plans. Every citizen must have the opportunity to take part, feel entitled to participate, welcome to join in, and able to influence the transportation decisions made by SCDOT. The Public Involvement Process therefore adheres to SCDOT’s Public Participation Plan to provide the necessary framework in accomplishing identified goals. Included in the Multimodal Plan’s Public Involvement Process for both the rural and urban areas of the state were: o Stakeholder Meetings o Presentations o Surveys o Website o Interviews o Media o Focus Groups o Public Meetings Each component is summarized below, and detailed in the full Plan. Stakeholder Meetings A kick-off meeting was held for on July 6, 2006 at SCDOT to discuss the process and elements of the Plan. This meeting was attended by members of the Multimodal Plan Resource Committee, as well as other stakeholders. Specifically for development of the Regional Human Services Transportation Coordination Plans, at least three stakeholder meetings were held in each region. These meetings were attended by transit providers, MPOs, COGs, human service agencies, private entities, and public interest groups. Additional stakeholder meetings and conference calls were held for multiple elements of the Plan at various times throughout the Plan’s development, and attended by Resource Committee and Sub-Committee members, as well as other public and private stakeholders.

  • Revitalization of the AM Radio Service ) ) ) )
    Before the FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION Washington, DC In the matter of: ) ) Revitalization of the AM Radio Service ) MB Docket 13-249 ) ) COMMENTS OF REC NETWORKS One of the primary goals of REC Networks (“REC”)1 is to assure a citizen’s access to the airwaves. Over the years, we have supported various aspects of non-commercial micro- broadcast efforts including Low Power FM (LPFM), proposals for a Low Power AM radio service as well as other creative concepts to use spectrum for one way communications. REC feels that as many organizations as possible should be able to enjoy spreading their message to their local community. It is our desire to see a diverse selection of voices on the dial spanning race, culture, language, sexual orientation and gender identity. This includes a mix of faith-based and secular voices. While REC lacks the technical knowledge to form an opinion on various aspects of AM broadcast engineering such as the “ratchet rule”, daytime and nighttime coverage standards and antenna efficiency, we will comment on various issues which are in the realm of citizen’s access to the airwaves and in the interests of listeners to AM broadcast band stations. REC supports a limited offering of translators to certain AM stations REC feels that there is a segment of “stand-alone” AM broadcast owners. These owners normally fall under the category of minority, women or GLBT/T2. These owners are likely to own a single AM station or a small group of AM stations and are most likely to only own stations with inferior nighttime service, such as Class-D stations.

  • FY17 Cleanup Anderson Univ SC.Pdf
    Anderson University – Former Pro Weave Property FY2017 US Environmental Protection Agency Cleanup Grant Application NARRATIVE PROPOSAL/RANKING CRITERIA 1. COMMUNITY NEED 1.a. Target Community and Brownfields 1.a.i. Community and Target Area Descriptions The City of Anderson is a small community with a population under 27,000 individuals (2014 ACS US Census) in the Upstate region of South Carolina along Interstate 85. The arrival to the region of the Pelzer Manufacturing Company and the railroad in the late 1880s resulted in significant economic growth and the development of many textile mills. Anderson was one of the first in the Southeastern United States to have electricity, which was provided by a hydroelectric plant on the Rocky River built in 1895. Anderson’s economy was historically based on the textile industry and a manufacturing sector connected to the region’s automotive industry cluster, including companies producing automotive products, metal parts, industrial machinery, plastics and textiles. Anderson is also the home of Anderson University, a private university of nearly 3,500 undergraduate and graduate students. Founded in 1911 as a four-year woman’s college, the University is now the second largest private college in South Carolina serving both men and women – offering a diverse curriculum of bachelor, masters and doctorate-level degree programs. The university has long history of giving back to the community. In keeping with this tradition, Anderson University has undertaken the revitalization of the wetlands property adjoining its campus in the targeted brownfields area. The Rocky River has a long history of abuse, including contamination from adjacent industries and the channelization of the river in the 1980’s, which separated it from the surrounding wetlands leading to degradation of these vital ecosystems.
