Dr. Penders,
It seems you are playing a dishonest game of semantics, because I’m sure you know the definition of integrity: “a concept of consistency of actions, values, methods, measures, principles, expectations and outcomes.” Despite what you say, obviously, you were questioning my father's integrity by saying in your letter to Mr. Richardson, "Apparently Stan does not believe that he is accountable to the voters." Again, you questioned his integrity, in your comment below, by saying that you were attacking my father’s 'responsiveness,' 'reasonableness,' and 'objectivity.' It scares me a little that you would try to manipulate a fact pertaining to your own behavior; since, in your profession, you are trusted to help rearrange the thoughts and behaviors of others. Just admit it: You were questioning his integrity; and, now, I’m questioning yours. |

It is absolutely absurd that the county would spend 50 million dollars without a Long Range Facility Plan that includes various alternatives the board could consider, including revisions in the student assignment patterns...such as PreK-5 neighborhood schools in Washington. Such planning should/would include the impact of the proposed Interstate connector from the Greenville By-pass (read ECU medical district) and the new Fred Smith proposed subdivision. What we are getting from Cheeseman is a planning model that is 50 years out of date NOW. The people have spoken...there is a new majority on the School Board but still three members control the planning. Actually two members, one of whom is not elected (superintendent). That is absurd. A solid Long Range Plan would save more than it cost. At a minimum the Board should debate the utility of mega elementary schools that depend on cross-town busing. More absudity! Where is the new majority on the School Board?

Commented On More panic at the School Board--Revised
October 8, 2024 --The following Sun Shine request was emailed to mcheeseman@beaufort.k12.nc.us:
It is our understanding that a meeting of the Board of Education was held recently in which more than a majority of board members was present and the topic of the meeting was, inter alia, a discussion of campaign material used by board candidate Stacy Davis that led to a letter being sent to Ms. Davis. Please accept this as a formal request for: A copy of the minutes of that meeting A copy of the Notice of Meeting (none was received by the Beaufort Observer despite the fact that we have made a previous request to receive all media notices.) A statement of why the media was not notified of the meeting as required by law. A copy of any correspondence originating from the meeting, specifically any correspondence to Ms. Davis concerning her campaign for a Board of Education seat (District 5). Your immediate response would be appreciated. Delma Blinson, Editor Beaufort Observer As of October 21, 2024 we have received NO RESPONSE. |

Commented On Community rallies behind keeping Snowden open
Is this correct? No white students attend Snowden? Are there no white or Hispanic students living in Richland Township? That does not appear to be possible. Why does not this Superintendent find those kids and determine why they are not enrolled in BCS? Are we to conclude that there are "no white people/students" living in Richland Township/Aurora? How many white students from Richland Township attend school in Pamlico County? If that is true, the Superintendent needs to determine why white students have fled from Snowden.

Hey Deatherage,
What the Fluke? I remember a time at East Carolina, in 1973, when you would loved a chick like that - 3,000.00 worth of birth control - wow, what a babe? Best sentiments as always, The Don. |

Commented On Buffalo Guy Tagged And Released Back Into Wild
No I did not; "not that there was anything wrong with it." I was, instead, dodging tear gas canisters until I formed an interest in what I noticed to be individuals that not appear to be part of the group, but who were shouting instructions to the smaller sectors of the crowd as to make them belligerent, and not remain peaceful.
I think it is time to end this conversation. I don't want the FBI to go Full Trump on me, my family or my friends. Who can stand that ... obviously President Trump has withstood it. |

A lone tear streaked downward across my right cheek when I read this restorative news ... Be free Bison Boy, "run free," and never again may they coral your blithe spirit to roam.

As an Independent, I personally do not care if you are a Democrat or Republican or who you support, Scott Hammonds has been a great sheriff and I will continue to support him! #TEAMHAMMONDS
Also, as Bubba said: "Ernie Coleman was one of the worst sheriffs", if not, the worst in my lifetime that is! |

Commented On Taxes, Budgets, Spending, Are They Linked?
Commissioner Richardson has made a salient point in that over-active spending equals over-reactive taxing of the public, and it will never end as long the local GOP coddles RINOs that enact poorly considered policy, while performing limited to NO oversight, when wise budgeting of the public's treasury is incredibly necessary, but never a real consideration for the Beaufort County GOP's favored ambition - enabling the RINO.
