SEATTLE (AP) — Aircraft assembly workers have walked off the job at Boeing factories near Seattle and elsewhere after union members voted overwhelmingly to reject a tentative contract that would have increased wages by 25% over four years. The strike started at 12:01 a.m. PDT Friday, less than three hours after the local branch of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers announced 96% of voting workers rejected the proposed contract and 96% approved the work stoppage.

Civil Rights: May a state require student athletes to play on sports teams that align with the gender they were assigned at birth? - Argued: Fri, 27 Oct 2023 13:11:54 EDT

B.P.J. v. West Virginia State Board of Education

Welcome to the daily304 – your window into Wonderful, Almost Heaven, West Virginia.   Today is Wednesday, Oct. 18  Starlink high-speed internet is now available throughout West Virginia…State agencies and higher-ed institutions team up to tackle a shortage of veterinary technologists…and an advanced manufacturing work-study program is putting students to work faster…on today's daily304. #1 – From WVPB – About 5,000 Space-X Starlink satellites are now orbiting the earth, able to provide internet service to the highest mountain and deepest hollow. Del. Daniel Linville, R-Cabell, chairs the House Technology and Infrastructure Committee. He said Starlink now has the capacity to clear its West Virginia waiting list and offer internet service everywhere — except for the restricted Green Bank Observatory area. The service offers an immediate option for any West Virginian to get connected.    “It's true broadband speeds,” Linville said. “Your kids can game online if they wish, or you can stream movies or do telehealth or education or anything that you would need to do.” Monthly rates begin at $90. Some households may qualify for the FCC's Affordable Connectivity Program, which provides a $30 monthly discount regardless of internet provider.  Learn how to connect to Starlink at www.starlink.com. Read more: https://wvpublic.org/internet-from-space-now-available-throughout-w-va/   #2 – From WDTV – West Virginia University, West Virginia State University and the West Virginia Department of Agriculture have developed a new initiative called Vet Start, designed to address the shortage of veterinary technologists in the state. The four-year program will better prepare students, giving them more hands-on experience to make them career ready by the time of graduation.   Cheat Lake Animal Hospital will also provide assistance with this project. Co-owner Dr. Jesse Fallon believes that this program will benefit all clinics around the state. “We need folks that are trained, that are licensed, and who can help us take care of our patients better,” Fallon said. “So the more veterinarian technicians we have, the better skilled veterinarian technicians we have, the better veterinarian medicine we can provide.” Read more: https://www.wdtv.com/2023/10/09/new-vet-tech-program-vet-start/   #3 – From WV GAZETTE-MAIL – Madelyn Ward says she was talking to her hairstylist about trying to find a pathway to a career without going into massive student loan debt and was surprised when she had the perfect solution. “She mentioned her husband was in an advanced manufacturing training program at BridgeValley Community and Technical College in South Charleston. She said it might be a perfect fit for me and it really got my attention, so I looked into it,” Ward said. Ward was one of 20 students the Kanawha Valley Federation of Advanced Manufacturing Education (FAME) chapter chose for its inaugural 2023 cohort.  Students in the 2023 BridgeValley Advanced Manufacturing Technology program applied for and were selected for a paid, part-time position with Toyota West Virginia, Nucor Steel West Virginia or Kanawha Scales and Systems. Ward was one of three students to sign a letter of intent to participate in the work sponsorship program with Nucor. “Being able to go to school, work at the same time and graduate debt-free was a big factor for me,” she said. “Being able to graduate with a degree while making good money and have the opportunity to get a good job with good benefits at Nucor is really awesome. It's really a blessing for me and my son.” To learn more about the FAME program, visit pcda.org/fame-usa.

West Virginia has quite a few of these unique towns, including Point Pleasant. For lovers of paranormal activity, this little West Virginia town on the Ohio River has some quirky personality. “There was a Mothman panic in Point Pleasant in 1966 based on sightings of red-eyed, winged creatures," explains Xamis Wolters. “Today, the town is home to the Mothman Museum, as well as the annual Mothman Festival.” For something more subdued, the quaint main street of Point Pleasant looks like an early 20th-century postcard, complete with mom-and-pop shops, friendly restaurants, and even a vintage movie theater.

Each song has a different story about how it became official, taking country roads through the West Virginia hills to arrive at a place that is home.

In this episode we celebrate Black History Month and are joined by author Bruce Wolk to explore the inspiring life of sports legend Junius Kellogg and his incredible connection to Pan American World Airways. Junius Kellogg was born on March 16, 1927 in Haverstraw, New York to Lucy Lee Williams and Theodore Kellogg. Young Junius always excelled in the classroom as an outstanding student, but also was an exceptional athlete in every sport he attempted.While in high school, Junius made the Virginia State High School All-Star Team, as well as, earning earn high marks in academics. After graduating in 1946, he was awarded a scholarship to West Virginia State, however, he was drafted into the U.S. Army after only one semester.While in the military in 1948, Junius was named 1st Army all-around athlete. The next year he was offered a basketball scholarship to Manhattan College as the school's first African American scholarship recipient. When eligible to play in the 1950-1951 season, the 6'10” Kellogg made an immediate impact on the team.In January 1951, after reporting that someone was attempting to bribe him, Junius helped authorities uncover the biggest betting scandal in collegiate basketball history. And was subsequently hailed a national hero for his honesty and courage. But despite this, a career in the NBA eluded him mainly because being the whistleblower embarrassed some of the league's executives and star players that were likely involved in past betting schemes. After graduation in June 1953, he was invited to join the Harlem Globetrotters, even though he still dreamed of becoming a professional basketball player in the NBA. That dream was shattered and his life forever changed on April 2, 1954 when a horrific car accident left him paralyzed from the shoulders down. While recovering in the Bronx Veterans Hospital, Junius was approached to be head coach of the Pan Am Jets, a wheelchair basketball team sponsored by Pan American World Airways. In addition, Pan Am offered him a job in the accounting department.He became the first African American coach in the history of wheelchair basketball, and with the Pan Am Jets brought the sport to people throughout the world. Junius coached the U.S. Wheelchair Basketball team to a gold medal at the Tokyo 1964 Paralympic Games. Inspired by Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, he left coaching and devoted his professional life to community activism through the New York City Development Agency and the Eastern Paralyzed Veterans Association. Junius Kellogg has been inducted into the National Wheelchair Basketball Association's Hall of Fame, as well as, the Virginia Sports Hall of Fame. He died at age 71 on September 16, 1998. To learn more about Mr. Kellogg and to watch a tribute video, visit the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Museum. 

Parents need to be aware of what's going on in their kids' lives online, in addition to offline, panelists at a Cherokee County School District forum said Tuesday. As part of its Parent University series, CCSD brought in professionals from the school district, a school police officer, a counselor and a prosecutor to discuss cyberbullying and social media's impact on local students. Panelists agreed that parents need to have conversations with their children about the internet and social media, and create a safe environment where children can come to them if there's a problem. A poll of attendees showed 76% of parents had not had a child disclose that they had been cyberbullied. Unlike previous generations who could leave their problems with peers when they went home from school, with social media, bullying follows today's students home, hurting their mental health. High school students are less confident than they were before social media, Creekview High School Principal Michael Santoro said. Ashley Snow, a Cherokee County deputy chief assistant district attorney for juvenile court, warned that the internet can give children access to content that's not appropriate for kids. Many young children, as young as 9, are exposed to child pornography, she said, and some try to act out or experiment with behavior that “breaks families apart.” It's also common for children to share information with strangers on the internet, not realizing the risks, Snow said. She recommended that parents restrict their children's access to the internet, video game devices and cell phones. If a child sends explicit content to another person, it “absolutely” should be reported, Dobbs said, even if it's to another minor. To report cyberbullying or another issue to school officials, parents and students can use CCSD's Vector Alert system, and can submit reports anonymously. The system isn't 24/7, Murdock said, but officials will respond quickly. People can also report to a teacher or counselor, or to a school administrator. Athletes from all six Cherokee County high schools celebrated the annual National Girls and Women in Sports Day on January 30 at Woodstock High School. More than 500 female athletes participated as NGWSD recognized the contributions they made in their sports and celebrated their positive influence on the landscape. The day is celebrated in all 50 states, and Cherokee County has hosted its own event since 2005. Each year, the program chooses a coach to honor for their contributions and support of the area's female athletes. Woodstock athletic director Julie Crowe earned this year's award and was also acknowledged for her 20 years as the Wolverines' girls' basketball coach. Cherokee County's 18 female wrestlers were recognized with the Trailblazer award for their participation in a historically male-dominated sport. Each school had an Athlete of the Year recipient, along with an alumna and team of the year. Cherokee's Athlete of the Year was Lexi Pavese, Creekview's was Anslie Pettit and Astrid Medina was honored from Etowah. Mataya Gayle was River Ridge's honoree, Laurel Blase earned the award from Sequoyah and Hannah Obenauf was Woodstock's winner. Creekview also honored alumna Alivia Mynes, who was tragically lost in a car accident in 2022. Nine Cherokee County football players put pen to paper Wednesday, signing their national letters of intent to join collegiate football programs. Etowah led the way with three signees, followed by Creekview, River Ridge and Sequoyah with two. Etowah kicker Carson Allen made one of the biggest splashes, signing with a Southeastern Conference school in Mississippi State. He was a five-star kicker as rated by Kohl's Kicking, and he was the No. 42-ranked kicker in the class of 2023. Etowah also had two defensive backs sign Wednesday, with Frank Mosley going to West Virginia State and Jamir Maxime to Reinhardt. Sequoyah also had a pair of defensive backs sign in Cantrell Davis (Tuskegee) and Ridley Joseph (Concordia-St. Paul). Creekview, offensive/defensive lineman Anthony Caraballo inked his letter with Huntingdon, while fullback/defensive lineman Jacob Hefner signed as a preferred walk-on at Furman. Defensive lineman Ethan Anderson (Warner) and offensive lineman Reed Albers (Centre) were River Ridge's signees. Woodstock did not have any signees Wednesday, though it had two players sign with Division I programs during the early signing period in Adonis Garcia (Wofford) and Tyler Douthit (Samford). Cherokee is expected to have two players sign on a later date in Kyan Simmons and Ryane Martin. Canton Mayor Bill Grant is "excited" to address the Interstate 575 exit at Hickory Flat Highway into the city this year, he told attendees at a Cherokee County Chamber of Commerce event Thursday. Grant, Canton City Council members Brooke Schmidt, JoEllen Wilson and Shawn Tolan, and City Manager Billy Peppers shared updates about the city with local community and business leaders at the Cherokee County Chamber of Commerce's Good Morning Cherokee meeting Thursday. Grant, the council members and Peppers shared a number of statistics and bullet points showcasing how Canton has grown and continues to grow with the guidance of the city's "Roadmap to Success." The eight tenets of the city's roadmap are: Creating Great Neighborhoods Celebrating the Diversity of Our Community Advancing Regional Economic Success Enhancing Historic Downtown Canton Sustaining Our Natural Environment Connecting Citizens to Parks and Recreation Improving Infrastructure for Future Demands Leading with Excellence In 2022, Canton saw its population grow to over 35,000 — about five times its 2000 population, which was 7,000, Peppers said. The number of city employees also grew to 134, and the city changed its starting base compensation for employees to $20 an hour. To address housing needs, last year in addition to approving private housing developments, Canton officials committed $2.8 million in a low interest loan for the Shipp Street housing redevelopment.  The city also entered into an agreement with the Canton Housing Authority for $1 million in support for a 9% low-income housing tax credits application. Susan Treadaway has taken an administrative oath as Cherokee County's acting district attorney, after former District Attorney Shannon Wallace was sworn in as a Superior Court judge. Chief Superior Court Judge Ellen McElyea swore in Susan Treadaway as acting district attorney of the Blue Ridge Judicial Circuit serving Cherokee County January 31, the district attorney's office announced. Katie Gropper was sworn in as chief assistant district attorney. Treadaway was previously the chief assistant district attorney. The design phase includes field surveys and survey database, environmental documentation including all required special studies, geotechnical, preliminary construction plans, as well as lighting and right-of-way plans (including revisions) for the improvements at I-575 at the Ridgewalk Parkway interchange, according to city documents. The change comes after Governor Brian Kemp swore in Wallace in Atlanta Jan. 30. Kemp appointed Wallace to the newly created fourth judicial seat on the Superior Court. Treadaway will hold the position of acting district attorney pending Governor Kemp's appointment of Wallace's successor. There was a three-way tie for the 2023 STAR Student for Cherokee County this year. Griffen Bon and Braden Flournoy from Cherokee High School, as well as Avi Stein from Etowah High School, were recognized last week at the annual STAR Student and Teacher Recognition Ceremony hosted at the Canton Theatre by the Canton Lions Club, which has been the local sponsor since the STAR program began in 1958.  The winners were announced last Tuesday at a program sponsored by the Canton Lions Club at the Historic Canton Theater. They were selected from the eight STAR Students named for each of the seven high schools in Cherokee County. The Cherokee County School District recognizes its high school students with the highest SAT scores and their teachers through the Student Teacher Achievement Recognition program. The STAR Student honor is awarded to the high school senior from each Georgia public and private high school with the highest score on any single test date of the SAT and who also ranks in the top 10 percent or top 10 students of his or her class based on grade point average. Each honored student is invited to select his or her favorite teacher to be named that school's STAR Teacher.
