61. North Carolina High School Computational Chemistry Server Registration
Welcome, student chemistry researcher, to the north carolina High School This school can be public, private, parochial, charter, or a home school.
http://www.shodor.org/chemistry/register.php
Like any shared resource, there are rules for the use of this resource. There is no charge for using the server, but these rules will be strictly enforced:
1. You must be an enrolled high school student in a school physically located in the State of North Carolina. This school can be public, private, parochial, charter, or a home school. Middle school students are also permitted to submit a proposal for time on the server.
2. All student researchers will be allocated two types of time limits. The first is a "per job" time limit, and is typically set at two (2) hours. This means that no single job can run more than two hours. If you think your computation will require more time, you should indicate this in your proposal. The second limit is "total time". This represents the accumulated time of all runs. Total time is typically set at 30 hours. Once you have exceeded 30 hours worth of runs, no more jobs will be accepted. Again, you can request more time in your proposal. You can also request modifications in both per job time limits and total time job limits while you are conducting your research.
3. At no time are you permitted to allow access to your account by any other person, including your classroom and/or scientific mentor. These individuals can apply for their own account as appropriate. If you are working with a university or other external scientific mentor, they are not permitted to use this resource for their own research.

The state has 321 banks organized under the state law; with an aggregate capital stock of $7,692,767; and 69 national banks with a capital of $6,760,000. The entire recognized state debt is $6,880,950, the greater part of which could be paid by the sale of certain railroad stock held by the state.
HISTORY
North Carolina was originally inhabited by various tribes of Indians, the three principal ones being the Tuscaroras in the east, the Catawbas in the centre, and the Cherokees in the west. A small body of Cherokees is still located in the mountain section. In 1584 Queen Elizabeth granted to Sir Walter Raleigh the right to discover and hold any lands not inhabited by Christian people. This charter constitutes the first step in the work of English colonization in America. Five voyages were made under it, but without success in establishing a permanent settlement. In 1663 Charles II granted to Sir George Carteret and seven others a stretch of land on the Atlantic coast, lying between Virginia and Florida, and running west to the South Seas. The grantees were created "absolute lords proprietors" of the province of Carolina, with full powers to make and execute such laws as they deemed proper. This grant was enlarged in 1665 both as to territory and jurisdiction, and in 1669 the lords proprietors

What it's worth
B Y B O B G E A R Y

Was Education Secretary Richard Riley's speech at Southern High School in Durham worth $300,000? The invited guestspublic-school officials, mainlystreamed in from all over the state and beyond. "Did you really come from Tennessee?" I asked one of them, looking at her license plate. "Been driving all morning," she said and nodded. The cheapskate in me started calculating: 1,500 folks at, say, $200 per day and up, spending most or all of the day at this. And that's not even counting their mileage, or Riley's costs. Riley's visit tickled North Carolina's school leaders, from Gov. Jim Hunt to Southern's principal Henry Pankey, known for his bullhorn blasts at unbecoming conduct in the hallways. Two years ago, Southern's results on end-of-grade tests were dreadful. When Pankey arrived last year test results improved and Southern became, in the state's terminology, an "exemplary school." Test results are up a bit statewide, too, which means Hunt is an exemplary governor, at least according to fellow Democrat Riley. So it was quite a festive atmospherea feather in the cap, as it werebut for the presence of Vernon Robinson and his tiny band of protesters out on the sidewalk.

School Zone Laws of North Carolina
In North Carolina, motorists must stop for stopped school buses and must obey school crossing guards, who are considered traffic control officers, when trained as specified. School zones are marked with signs and pavement markings with special speed limits posted, often with the effective hours marked on the signs. Some school zones also have blinking lights. Motorists must yield to pedestrians on all turns and when pedestrians are in a marked crosswalk. School buses may not exceed a speed of 55 mph when carrying students.
The following are specific sections of the North Carolina Motor Vehicle Code (from the North Carolina General Statutes ) that pertain to schools and school zones.
20-141. Speed Restrictions
Speed Limits in School Zones-(20-141.1) The Board of Transportation or local authorities within their respective jurisdictions may, by ordinance, set speed limits lower than those designated in G.S. 20-141 for areas adjacent to or near a public, private or parochial school. Limits set pursuant to this section shall become effective when signs are erected giving notice of the school zone, the authorized speed limit, and the days and hours of when the lower limit is effective, or by erecting signs giving notice of the school zone, the authorized speed limit and which indicate the days and hours the lower limit is effective by an electronic flasher operated with a time clock. Limits set pursuant to this section may be enforced only on the days when school is in session, and no speed limit below 20 miles per hour may be set under the authority of this section.

ND Senior Alumni Club Awards

During the 2005 alumni senate, six clubs were recognized for their efforts to actively promote senior-led programming and leadership. The Notre Dame Clubs of Detroit, Naperville/Lisle, Eastern North Carolina, Western Carolinas, Hilton Head, and North Florida were each presented the ND Senior Alumni Participation award, which recognizes programs that engage senior alumni and friends (age 55+). Club Name: Detroit
The Detroit Club via ND’s FIRST became involved with SMP in 2000 and currently has 16 NDSA mentors. A mentor will remain with his or her student for four years, developing a relationship with the student by being interested in him or her, discussing their problems, giving advice, and leading them to make educational and career choices based on their life experience. A mentor is not expected to tutor a student. SMP began in Detroit in 1998 with three students at three schools. In 2004-05 their goal was 63 students attending 13 high schools. The Detroit Club actively seeks additional volunteers to help satisfy the need. Twenty-two students have graduated from the program and 100% have gone on to college, some on a scholarship.

The Bishop's Call for Exploration of a Diocesan School for Ministry At the 186th Annual Convention of the Diocese of North Carolina, Bishop Curry asked for, and received, the authorization of Convention to explore the establishment of a Diocesan School for Ministry. He called on the chairpersons of the Commission on Ministry and the Committee on Education and Formation, along with the Director of the Deacon's Formation Program, to devise a plan and process for such exploration and to issue a report with recommendations at the Annual Convention of 2003. Bishop Curry's vision for such a School contained two guiding recognitions. One was the desirability of providing a coordinated means of addressing a wide range of educational and formational needs, embracing clergy and laity, throughout the diocese. The other was the presence within our diocese of wonderful resources for such an enterprise. The Bishop, for example, lifted up the possibility of a creative partnership with the Servant Leadership School of Greensboro. [Journal of Convention, pp.60,61] Bishop Curry is not alone in calling the church to engage more deeply and more widely in theological education and spiritual formation. The Council of Episcopal Seminary Deans has initiated a projected entitled "Theological Education for All," which actively seeks partnerships with dioceses, with institutions, with individuals, and with other judicatory bodies, in an effort to renew the commitment of the church to a ministry of theological education for all members.

Fighting the Good Fight for School Reform
"As long as politicians and bureaucrats who don't even know your child's name control the education money, they will decide what kind of education your child receives," says Vernon Robinson, who leads the drive for school choice in North Carolina. He says he is determined to see to it that failing government schools compete with other schools for the state's education dollars, and looks forward to the day when the public school system is "forced to treat all parents as valued customers." Education money must be taken away from what he calls "The Blob" (the education establishment), and put in the hands of parents. As head of the North Carolina Education Reform Foundation, which he founded, Robinson promotes legislation that will tie state money to the child, so that parents will be able to choose between schools. He travels around the state, initiating forums on education, assisted by his loyal supportersa multiracial and politically bipartisan coalition of parents and concerned citizens. He likes to call them "Robinson's Raiders."
