Oklahoma Economic and Job Growth Oil and Natural Gas Stimulate Oklahoma Economic and Job Growth Oil and natural gas are driving the U.S. economy through a major energy boom and that boom is rippling through the economy of Oklahoma, supporting business activity across the state. This finding grows out of a new American Petroleum Institute survey of domestic oil and natural gas $39 BILLION vendors,1 which offers a glimpse into the job and business creation engine that THE INDUSTRY CONTRIBUTES is the current oil and natural gas industry. The survey shows that at least 2,513 businesses, spread across all five of Oklahoma’s congressional districts, are part TO OKLAHOMA’S ECONOMY of the larger oil and natural gas supply chain. The survey’s snapshot of state-by-state income, is in terms of salary.3 While the activity reinforces the impressive level average annual salary in Oklahoma across of industry success throughout the all industries and sectors is $42,733, the country that is documented in a recent average salary in the oil and gas industry 364,300 PriceWaterhouseCoopers study conducted (excluding gas stations) is very significantly for the American Petroleum Institute.2 higher—$93,992 annually.

  • The Intersection of Governance and Agency in Farmers' Engagement
    Who benefits?: The intersection of governance and agency in farmers’ engagement with the Oklahoma Farm to School Program by Gina K. Thornburg B.S., University of Kansas, 1985 B.A., University of Kansas, 1985 M.A., California State University, Northridge, 2005 AN ABSTRACT OF A DISSERTATION submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Geography College of Arts and Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2017 Abstract Farm-to-school (FTS) programs are promoted as direct-marketing opportunities for farmers. As such, they are regarded by advocates and state and federal agencies as a pathway to rural economic development. The implementation of FTS food procurement poses significant challenges, however. Farmers make decisions regarding whether or not to market products to schools after learning about the program and considering an array of signals from multiscalar policies and governance structures. Research to date has left a gap in understanding farmers’ agency as it relates to governance structures and policy signals. This research on farmers’ engagement with the Oklahoma FTS Program contributes evidence to bridge this gap by examining the experiences not only of producers who participated in a FTS program but also of those who ceased participation or who chose not to participate. Employing a phronetic approach to social science, this explanatory, sequential, mixed-methods case study obtained quantitative and textual data from a mail survey, as well as data from two stints of qualitative fieldwork, in fall 2011 and fall 2012, which involved semistructured interviews and participant observation. Archival research completed the study methods used to gain a deeper understanding of farmers’ perspectives, practices, values, and experiences that informed their decisions to participate or not in a top-down-administered FTS program.

Abstract The changes in native forest and grassland management regimes following European settlement, particularly fire exclusion, have prompted the growth of fire intolerant woody tree species such as eastern redcedar (Juniperus virginiana). Eastern redcedar is a native species that has encroached into the prairies and forests of the southern Great Plains of the United States. Over the past few decades, the state of Oklahoma has witnessed considerable ecological and economic losses due to the widespread encroachment of eastern redcedar. This study performed an economic impact analysis in conjunction with a spatial analysis to understand the impacts of the introduction of new eastern redcedar-based bioproducts industries on the economy of Oklahoma. The results suggested that the new eastern redcedar industry manufacturing particleboard, mulch, and oil would contribute an additional USD 96 million per year to the economy of Oklahoma, while generating 319 employment opportunities. In addition, the spatial analysis identified two hotspot clusters suggesting that the existing biomass in the northwest and southeast counties of the state could sustain the bioproducts industry for two to ten decades based on the annual feedstock requirement of different operations.

This document reflects a balanced synthesis of the work of all members of the Oklahoma Academic Standards for Social Studies Writing and Draft Committees. The standards specify what students should know and be able to do as learners of social studies at the end of each grade level or social studies course. The order of the standards at any grade level is not meant to imply a sequence of topics and should be considered flexible for the organization of any course. The Oklahoma Academic Standards for Social Studies were informed by the National Council of the Social Studies (NCSS) Skills Framework , the Center for Civic Education Civics Standards, the National Council for Geographic Education (NCGE) Geography for Life Standards, the Council for Economic Education Voluntary National Content Standards in Economics, the National Council for History Education (NCHE) Habits of Mind, the National Center for History in the Schools Standards for Historical Thinking, the Oklahoma Academic Standards for English Language Arts and Social Studies, and other states’ standards documents.

  • Overview and Summary of Recent Initiatives
    Overview and Summary of Recent Initiatives In the summer of 2003, Governor Brad Henry initiated the Economic Oevelopment Generating Excellence (EDGE) project, which included the recommendation to "Transform Oklahoma into the w Research Capital of the Plains ." The EDGE plan proposed to achieve this by establishing a $1 billion research endowment. Under the leadership of the Governor, plans to fund the $1 billion EDGE endowment and structure and operate the endowment to support research and technology transfer in the private and public sector are progressing. During the 2005 legislative session, in a flISt step toward this objective, HB 1193 created the Dynamic Economy and Budget Security Fund, which promotes research and development of critical sectors of the statc's economy. The Legislature and Governor authorized the deposit of approximately $93 million into the fund. In the 2006 legislative session, that $93 million was used to fund other projects, but the money was replaced with new funding in the amount of$150 million. In March, 2005 Governor Brad Henry signed legislation establishing a $475 million bond issue for a slate of higher education projects, much of which targets research and laboratory facilities. The Oklahoma Higher Education Promise of Exce1lence Act of2005 also provided $25 million wthe foml ofa bond bank to fmance future improvements at the state's colleges and universities. The final $125 million in bonds of the $475 million total is scheduled to be sold in the spring of 2006. Among the projects to be funded with bond proceeds are the following: • University of Oklahoma: A long-proposed cancer center; the first phase of a multiphase project for a new, freestanding, Chemistry and Biochemistry teaching and research-laboratory complex; and constnlction of a College of Allied Health Phase II building.

  • Using C-Kermit 2Nd Edition
    << Previous file Chapter 1 Introduction An ever-increasing amount of communication is electronic and digital: computers talking to computers Ð directly, over the telephone system, through networks. When you want two computers to communicate, it is usually for one of two reasons: to interact directly with another computer or to transfer data between the two computers. Kermit software gives you both these capabilities, and a lot more too. C-Kermit is a communications software program written in the C language. It is available for many different kinds of computers and operating systems, including literally hundreds of UNIX varieties (HP-UX, AIX, Solaris, IRIX, SCO, Linux, ...), Digital Equipment Corporation (Open)VMS, Microsoft Windows NT and 95, IBM OS/2, Stratus VOS, Data General AOS/VS, Microware OS-9, the Apple Macintosh, the Commodore Amiga, and the Atari ST. On all these platforms, C-Kermit's services include: • Connection establishment. This means making dialup modem connections or (in most cases) network connections, including TCP/IP Telnet or Rlogin, X.25, LAT, NET- BIOS, or other types of networks. For dialup connections, C-Kermit supports a wide range of modems and an extremely sophisticated yet easy-to-use dialing directory. And C-Kermit accepts incoming connections from other computers too. • Terminal sessions. An interactive terminal connection can be made to another com- puter via modem or network. The Windows 95, Windows NT, and OS/2 versions of C-Kermit also emulate specific types of terminals, such as the Digital Equipment Cor- poration VT320, the Wyse 60, or the ANSI terminal types used for accessing BBSs or PC UNIX consoles, with lots of extras such as scrollback, key mapping, printer con- trol, colors, and mouse shortcuts.
