Commuters to downtown St. Louis can breathe a sigh a relief as state transportation officials have delayed closing the Martin Luther King Jr. Bridge until summer 2015.
Rehabilitation work on the bridge deck of the MLK Bridge was slated to begin in August. The work would have required that the bridge be shut down in both directions for two to three months.
However, a bid for the work was "considerably higher" than anticipated by officials with the Illinois Department of Transportation. Now the project will be revised and rebid later this year, pushing the work off to next year.
The bridge closure would have come at a time when work also is under way on the Poplar Street Bridge, resulting in lane closures.
Illinois officials estimate more than 175,000 cars cross all the bridges that cross the Mississippi each day downtown. About 12,700 of those vehicles are crossing the MLK Bridge.
State officials anticipated the project costing $15 million, however, the only bid received was for $16.9 million, according to IDOT engineer Jeff Church.
Church said Illinois transportation officials are coordinating the work with their Missouri counterparts in an effort to minimize the impact to commuters.
"We had this window that was from August of this year until March of next year," Church said. "We're not going to be able to use that window so now we have to wait until some point next summer depending on the progress of MoDOT's work."
The bridge work is associated with the overall plan to incorporate the new Stan Musial Veterans Memorial Bridge, and includes reconstruction work on the Poplar Street Bridge that will last until December 2017. Each day about 31,000 cars cross the new Musial Bridge and another 106,500 vehicles use the Poplar Bridge, according to a survey completed in April.
Currently, work is under way to reconstruct the exit ramp for westbound traffic on Poplar Street Bridge onto Interstate 70 and Memorial Drive. And between April and May in 2015, workers will complete westbound and southbound ramps from Poplar Street Bridge onto I-55.
Missouri officials have not conducted another traffic survey on Poplar Bridge since the Musial Bridge was completed but know traffic has decreased since closing the westbound ramp, according to engineer Deanna Venker with the Missouri Department of Transportation.
In addition, a new ramp connecting traffic from downtown St. Louis to southbound Illinois Route 3 in St. Clair County is planned. The $17 million work is set to begin in spring 2015.

NomadGal's Year on the Road
View Single Post
Joined: Mar 2012
Location: Everywhere and Nowhere
Oddometer: 1,096
I'm back in Ames Iowa.
After Red Oak I encountered some road work, thought this was a pretty unique road composition, black and white.
Looked at the map, and decided to take Highway 25, just cause my B-Day is on the 25th. While riding I glimpsed this hug rock that had been painted, I turned around cause I was curious as to what was painted on it.
Turns out this rock is famous.
The young man who started this, think he was 19 at the time, did this after seeing Saving Private Ryan.
He changes it every year
I am so against war that seeing this made me very sad...... what a waste, we could do so much better than this!
The only way I can cope with mankind's stupidity is in believing that everything happens for a reason.
Guess the only way to long for world peace is to finally get fed up with world war. I sure hope that comes around sooner than later!
The view behind the rock gave me a bit of peace. Nature does wonders for the soul. A bit of heaven in this crazy world.
Another red barn
Iowa has some amazing skies, and the camera is not doing justice to the different colors of the field. There were different hues of yellows and golds and ochres.
Now I can truly say, without lying, that I have been to Jamaica!
Got back to Ames via some obscure country roads that were just awesome, P30 is one of them.
Back at Robert's house Nickel was happy to see me again. He kept following me around like a young puppy dog, even though he is a really old cat (14yrs).
Using the sink together was a bit of a challenge. Hey Nickel, can I spit out my toothpaste now??
Am I awake, or am I dreaming?

Smarter Car RentingHere are car rental tips from the road trip-seasoned editors of RoadsideAmerica.com:
• Many States, One Car:If renting a car for a longer road trip, check with the car rental companies in Bloomington, Illinois to see if they have policies about crossing state lines that affect the final rate you pay. May be no effect, but don't assume you can crisscross the globe with unlimited mileage impunity. There may be a GPS tracker in the car!
• Under 25?Everyone over 25 assumes you are an awkward and unpredictable risk behind the wheel. Ridiculous, you say, without taking your eyes off the road. But be sure to check with Bloomington Illinois car rental companies about their specific policies. Some agencies require the driver to be at least 25 while other rental companies may allow younger drivers to rent for an additional fee. Have more than one driver? Be sure to ask if additional charges apply for more than one person driving the rental car.
• Fear of the Unknown:Unfamiliar with the streets of Bloomington? Consider adding a GPS navigation system to your rental. GPS provides turn-by-turn directions to a number of Bloomington attractions and businesses, and is offered by almost all Bloomington car rental agencies. The GPS helps you navigate like some mythical Greek God of Navigation! You can also add your own portable GPS on your handy windshield sucker, but remember to take it all with you when you turn in the car at the end of your trip.

Similar to members of the United States Congress, a state legislator's primary responsibility is to the residents in the district he or she represents. However, representatives work within a larger decision-making body, and must think about the good of the district, the good of the state, or some combination of both when writing laws. Representatives are also subject to the influence of political parties, congressional leadership, and other legislators.
The goal of this exercise is to examine state legislators' perceptions about their districts and the complex relationship between constituent preferences and the legislator's role as representative. Crosstabulations, bar charts, and frequencies will be used.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Unsatisfied2157 Underwhelmed Sheraton has always meant great value and high quality of service/ hospitality. I'm not saying that my stay wasn't okay - it was just that. The staff were courteous and professional but overwhelmed by the volume and the quality of service suffered. We weren't offered Club rooms upon checking in and the swimming pool was overcrowded and we waited 40 minutes for towels to be replenished. Seattle is a favorite destination for me but I'll be staying somewhere else next time. January 3, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Maryana Many thanks to the front desk team on Dec 13th I was staying in Sheraton Hotel in Seattle the night before my wedding) And my bridesmaid ordered a bottle of sparkling wine to my room to celebrate a bit, kind of "bridal shower". The Hotel's front desk team made a really wonderful surprise sending this wine to us as a present))) It was great) Thank you very much Sheraton's front desk team on December 13th, 2013. We were very happy))) December 31, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Curt17 Well run The downtown Seattle Sheraton is very well run. They never forget a special request such as late checkout (and interrupt during the last morning). The club lounge is nicer than most. December 31, 2013

Rated 5 out of 5 by HonoluluTourist1 Great Stay in Seattle It was during the holiday season and the accomodations were wonderful. The staff was always very helpful and eager to please. If I had to have to recommend any improvement, it would have to be the resturants. I solved this by eating out; no problem in the area. December 26, 2013

Rated 4 out of 5 by seahawkfan it was fun i was disappointed the pool was closed sunday morning during our stay till 9 am instead of opening at 630. and when I finally went swimming the water was too cold ? I was not given my $100 macys promotion card at check in and it took three people and 20 minutes to receive it? December 23, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by Cookc Noisy central air Every 10 minutes air system would make Loud crash. Not normal at all. Sitting chair in room dirty stained. Would not stay again December 22, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by maryrupprecht Good for the Holidays This is the second year we have stayed at the Sheraton for an overnight gig to Seattle. We missed out on the holiday package because we booked late, but it's still great for the central location and I think the Gingerbread Houses get better every year. December 22, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by 27Rose Company Christmas My husband and I were invited to a night's stay for a company Christmas gathering. When we checked in we were told that our room wasn't ready yet, yet the reservation was made in advance. They tried to accommodate us with another room very far from the rest of our party, we decided to wait until the room was ready and was told they would call us when it was ready. We waited in the bar area for an hour, and no one called. Someone else had to ask if it was ready, turns out it was. I recommend the staff be a little more attentive. December 18, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by gr82bart Please upgrade your key system Your key system was the only flaw in an otherwise great hotel. I stay at this hotel at least 15 weeks in a year and each time, at least once (one time 6 times) your keys get demagnetized. It gets beyond annoying now. It's the only reason I wouldn't rate this hotel 5 stars. December 18, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Plat This hotel is one of SPG's finest. Always one of the very best hotels in the SPG universe. December 17, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Jazmond Great Location Close to shopping and the water Walked to everything. Easy transportation to and from airport via light link line December 17, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by zanypatches Check in The man who checked us in was charming. efficient and really seemed to enjoy his job, Sorry we forgot his name but he was from Spain and had just recently started working in Seattle. December 16, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by TiredOfWaiting123 Overly busy - lines and busy signals There were lines everywhere, and the staff wasn't too motivated to get them to move fast. Busy signals and hold music constantly when calling front desk and room service. Restaurant long waits. They needed a lot more staff around... Over priced for what you got and the attention you got. December 16, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Hpais Convenient to Seattle downtown. If location and comfort are the most important criteria, this hotel wins hands down. You're literally within steps of seattle'so downtown attractions including the convention center, Pike's market, monorail, public transportation. The hotel is sort of a Seattle institution, on weekends there's always something going on, and it attracts hundreds of people, all the time. If you're concerned with privacy and isolation, seek a hotel outside the downtown Seattle area. Finally, don't rent a car for your entire stay , rent only for the days you really need. December 15, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Seana Sheraton Seattle This stay fr us and our friends could not be better. great reception, loved the room and a great view. Close to shopping which was great for the women that were with us. We will be back December 10, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Bob1975 great times at Sheraton Seattle Stayed here with my family over the weekend in December to enjoy the Christmas season downtown. Kids had a great time swimming and visiting the gingerbread houses. Enjoyed taking advantage of the Club lounge as a SPG platinum member. December 9, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by HHJH1 Great location! We have enjoyed our December visits to Seattle and staying in the heart of the city has been so convenient for shopping and quick walks down to Pike Street Market! December 9, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by BTRe Convenient This hotel was very nice, clean, had easy access 405/90, downtown and shopping areas adequate parking. The staff was top of the line and very efficient. Shuttle service was very good. Local hotel and the two adjacent restaurants were very good and reasonably priced. I would definitely recommend this hotel and it will be my first choice for my next stay in Bellevue December 9, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Mini58 Sad Really disappointed that you got rid of the hot tub. Everyone I talked to who was staying there shared the same sentiments. I know it was cost effective because you had to spend to bring it up to code, but i think we will stay places that have one. It was part of your best amenities. the pool and hot tub go together. Esp since your pool is cold, consider making the pool much warmer. December 9, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by AmandaV Horrible parking I tend to stay at Starwood properties when I travel because I appreciate the high level of service and value these properties have to offer. While the Sheraton Seattle is great because of the location, the overall experience was disappointing this time around. I love visiting during the gingerbread display but with this and other events going on, the parking situation was a complete disaster. I understand the cost for valet, and I expect some level of convenience when paying $46 a night for this service. I waited an hour in a line (really) around the block just to park my car. When I finally reached the hotel I asked if they were enforcing the "hotel guest parking only" sign they had displayed, but they said they weren't. It seems like guests paying $200 a night for a room plus nearly $50 dollars to park should have some level of priority. If you're staying here, save yourself the headache and self park in another garage. All in all, it seemed as if they were not adequately staffed for their level of business during our stay. The staff were doing their best but were just stretched too thin. I was expecting more from a Starwood property. December 9, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by BrutusB33 You absolutely cannot beat the value or SPG-Platinum Serivce I've been a SPG-Gold or Platinum member for the past seven years or so, and have stayed in SPG hotels worldwide. When staying downtown Seattle, you cannot beat the Sheraton for value, service, or proximity to area attractions. They frequently upgrade me and the front-desk staff are superb in their customer interaction. The other day I stayed there, and my wife and three kids were coming from out of town to join me during my stay. The hotel was nearing capacity so the hotel desk staff apologized they couldn't upgrade me to a suite, when I made the request. I told the desk agent, Trang, that I was only asking since my wife and three kids were coming to meet me, but we would make due with a rollaway and two double-beds. She disappeared to the office for a few minutes and without going into details, she and the supervisor (she has a short four-letter last name that starts with a "P", I believe) managed to problem-solve the situation and gave me a solution that TOTALLY exceeded my expectations for the two-night stay. They easily could have said that since there were no suites available, that their hands were tied, but they took the time and extra effort to take care of me and my family, which absolutely delighted us. I split my loyalty between SPG and another major international hotel chain. With that in mind, I always see SPG (and the Seattle downtown hotel, especially) outperform their competitors when it comes to taking care of their status-level guests. Thank you Seattle Sheraton. Your staff is a model for other Seattle hotels to follow! December 8, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by katnyp Nice hotel, but lots of issues I was there on business, stayed for 6 nights total. The hotel itself is very nice, but I had a few complaints. Once again, even thought I'm top-tier SPG, I didn't get an auto-upgrade til the 2nd night and after complaining. The front desk is poorly staffed and the wait was ridiculously long. Add more agents, please! The front car area is sooooo crowded, not much they can do about the space available, but they could manage it a lot better. My biggest complaint though is about the Club Lounge. Lovely lounge, great view, but omg....crying babies? noisy teenagers? yes and yes. Why in heaven's name can't we have a lounge area that is what it should be - a quiet place FOR ADULTS to work or read or have a drink. Why does everything have to be 'family-friendly' now...it might as well be Disney. IMHO minors should not be allowed in club lounges. December 8, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by JVA47 Seattle Christmastime Outstanding staff. Too bad we only needed to stay one night. Despite the frigid cold air we could walk to most places. December 8, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by FrequentTraveler777 Poor Customer Service The hotel is in a great location, but lacks customer service. After waiting an hour for our bags to be brought up, I contacted the front desk and they "couldn't find them". Eventually we got our bags after one and a half hours. I needed a razor and was told by the front desk "it would be right up". It arrived in 40 minutes. I had ordered flowers and was specifically told they would "be in the room between 5:30 and 6:00. They arrived at 6:30. After I checked out, I called the manager to say that even if they are short staffed and busy, customers would be very grateful for an update to the expected time of a promised service. To give a promise of immediacy or of a specific time and not deliver on that promise, shows a great lack of customer service. I subsequently contacted the hotel to talk to the manager. I was told "the manager is with a customer, would you like him to call you as soon as he's free?". I said yes. However I am still awaiting a call from the manager. December 8, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Holidayfun Special Deals My stay at the hotel was very comfortable, as I expected from the Sheraton. One of the reasons I chose the Sheraton was the special deal offered on the holiday Duck Tour of Seattle. Since I booked my reservation by phone, no one by phone at the reservation site, nor at the Seattle hotel was able to give the the 20% discount. The Duck Tours were willing to give me the discount if I had the promotional code the Sheraton offered. The last time I called the Seattle Sheraton, I was told that they'd call me back. Since I never received a call back, I went ahead and booked directly with the Duck Tour as to not spoil the holiday plans I made for my sister. December 7, 2013

Hi there,
I am commuting to work on a performance hybrid, with a backpack that has my laptop (5.5lbs), power adapter, case (1 lb), krypto bike lock, and lock cable in it. Sometimes I add this or that, but the added stuff is all light. For ex., a t-shirt or long sleeve pullover.
Recently, I started having some back pain and it looks like one of my vertebrae has popped out a bit from my spine (outward, away from my back). I'm riding around 5mi each way and wondering if I can really attribute my back problems to this? Or maybe it's an overall problem that's been aggravated by cycling?
Any thoughts would be appreciated... I wouldn't think that I could attribute the problem to cycling alone, but I suppose so. I really hate the way that my bike feels with panniers on it, so I am trying to avoid that.

Rhys Ifans will play the recurring role of Sherlock Holmes' older brother Mycroft in the CBS drama "Elementary," and will make his first appearance in the second season premiere airing at 9 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 26.
Details, provided by CBS, are as follows;
In the premiere episode, Sherlock (Jonny Lee Miller) is called to London to revisit an old case, where he is forced to face his older brother, Mycroft. Although the siblings suffered a drastic falling-out a few years earlier, Mycroft allows Sherlock and Joan (Lucy Liu) to stay in his new home, 221B Baker Street. With Joan in the middle, the brothers are forced to confront their very complicated history.
Ifans' credits include the feature films "The Amazing Spider-Man," "Notting Hill," "Anonymous," and the upcoming "Serena."

"Elementary" is executive produced by Robert Doherty, Carl Beverly, Sarah Timberman and Craig Sweeny, and is produced by CBS Television Studios. It is distributed internationally by CBS Studios International.

Best All-Purpose cleanser in the world! I've used harsh chemicals, natural products, orange cleansers--Life Tree cuts through accumulated grease of range ventilation fans, shines the tea kettle, de-grosses the the toilet, safely cleans kitchen counters. All in a wipe. So easily! As a Feng Shui consultant and de-clutterer, I am telling all my clients about this!

Posted by CritterChuckles on Feb 02, 2011
We have a lot of pets so we're always cleaning up "accidents" in the house and I wanted to try switching to something with less chemicals, not only for pets health but due to our hardwood floors. This spray is great to use on everything, I now even use it to clean all my kitchen counters & deodorize throw rugs.
I love it!

I am using this for cleaning bathroom's floor which is tile. And it cleans the floor good and gives great aroma that stays for a while. I do not like strong aroma but it has a perfect strength of aroma. I will be buying other product from Life Tree for sure.

The present invention relates to molding. More particularly, the invention relates to molding or fascia trim, especially for automotive vehicles, having an insert with markings or indicia thereon and exhibiting three-dimensional characteristics.
Moldings for automotive vehicles are commonly used, for example, as body side moldings to protect the sides of vehicles from nicks, scratches and dents, of the type inflicted in parking lots by the careless. Moldings are also used as fascia trim and can serve aesthetic purposes to enhance the lines of vehicles. Some vehicle manufacturers provide moldings with bright work to simulate a bright metallic appearance which is pleasing to the eye. In fact, a variety of shapes and configurations of moldings have been developed through the years in efforts to improve the aesthetic characteristics of the molding and to improve the aesthetic appeal of the vehicle to which the moldings are attached.
It is also quite popular to provide the sides of vehicles with some form of emblem or indicia, such as a trademark, tradename, insignia, logo, design or the like. Conventionally, such emblems are secured to vehicles by pressure sensitive adhesives or with fasteners which require drilling holes in the body panels. These conventional techniques result in an emblem which protrudes from the body of the vehicle, detracting from the aerodynamic appearance. Also adhesively secured emblems are subject to theft. Emblems attached to the body with fasteners secured through holes in the body panels increase the likelihood of body rust at the holes. These disadvantages are overcome by the present invention which incorporates an emblem into a molding.
The present invention provides a new and improved molding strip and method of making the same in which an indicia bearing insert is positioned within an aperture in the molding strip. A transparent plastic overlayer is injected over the insert, sealing the insert in place and forming an exposed surface which is smooth and continuous with the exposed surface of the molding strip. The indicia are viewable through the transparent overlayer and may be formed as three-dimensional raised indicia to exhibit aesthetic three-dimensional characteristics.
In accordance with the inventive method, the molding strip is cut, stamped or formed with an aperture into which the indicia bearing insert is positioned. Plastic material is injected into the aperture so that it overlays or encapsulates the insert and bonds to the insert to produce an integrally formed molding strip. The molding strip may be extruded and then placed in a mold or formed in a mold. Thereafter plastic material forming the overlayer is injected through passageways drilled or formed in the molding strip adjacent the insert receiving aperture and communicating with the mold cavity space proximate the insert. The injected plastic material substantially fills the mold cavity space proximate the insert and forms a good mechanical bond to hold the insert in place within the aperture. The injected plastic material also fuses with the insert and molding strip. If desired, the molding strip can be provided with a decorative metallized film layer. The injected plastic material serves to encapsulate and protect the edges of the metallized film exposed as a result of forming the aperture. This prevents the metallized film edges from deteriorating or oxidizing due to exposure to the elements. The plastic injected material forms a smooth and continuous surface integral with the surface of the molding strip, which avoids accumulation of dirt, road salt and the like from such as occurs in crevices or recessed logos on conventional emblems or moldings.
For a more complete understanding of the invention, its objects and advantages, reference may be had to the following specification and the accompanying drawings.
FIG. 1 is a side elevation view of a portion of a vehicle including a molding strip in accordance with the present invention;
FIG. 2 is an enlarged partial plan view illustrating the molding strip insert of the invention;
FIG. 3 is a similar enlarged partial plan view showing the aperture in the molding strip prior to insertion of the insert;
FIG. 4 is a similar partial plan view illustrating the insert positioned in the aperture prior to injection of the overlayer material; and
FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line 5--5 of FIG. 2, illustrating the molding strip with insert and injected overlayer in greater detail.
Referring to FIG. 1, an automotive body side molding is illustrated generally at 10. Molding 10 is secured to the fender panels and door panels of the automotive vehicle generally in the position shown. Although the molding strip 10 has been illustrated as a protective body side molding for the vehicle, it will be appreciated that the present invention can be employed in molding strips for other purposes. For example, the present invention can be a bumper fascia 11 illustrated in FIG. 1 on bumper 13.
Molding strip 10 includes an emblem or indicia 14, which may be a logo, trademark, tradename, insignia, design or the like. An analogous emblem 15 is illustrated on bumper fascia 11. Indicia 14 are shown in greater detail in FIG. 2. As illustrated, indicia 14 may include one or more letters 16 (or logos, designs and so forth). If desired, molding strip 10 may be in the form of a substrate 18 having a metallized film 20 secured or bonded thereon. Metallized films can be used to stimulate a bright metallic appearance which is pleasing to the eye. For illustration purposes, a portion of metallized film 20 is shown cut away in FIG. 2 to reveal the underlying substrate 18. Substrate 18 can comprise polyvinylchloride or any other conventional material suitable for the intended use of molding strip 10. Indicia 14 further includes a clear or tinted transparent plastic overlayer 22 which fully covers the letters 16 and presents an outwardly facing or exposed surface which is smooth and continuous with the outwardly facing exposed surface of molding strip 10. Overlayer 22 can be, for example, a clear or tinted polyvinylchloride material. Optionally, overlayer 22 can comprise a clear polymer material which exhibits lens magnification properties to make the indicia appear larger than actual size. As will be more fully explained below, letters 16 are integrally formed on or secured to an insert member 24 which is positioned within an aperture formed in the molding strip. To give a three-dimensional appearance, letters 16 may be raised above the surface of the insert member. Insert member 24 can be fabricated from polyvinylchloride or other suitable material. Letters 16 can be painted or can comprise a laminate such as brushed aluminized polyester film, for example.
Referring to FIGS. 3, 4 and 5, the method of making a molding strip of the invention will now be described. FIG. 3 depicts molding strip 10 into which an aperture 26 is formed. Molding strip may be extruded or injection molded and may include a metallized film layer 20 and underlying substrate 18 as discussed above. Aperture 26 may be formed during molding or it may be stamped or cut after formation of the molding strip. However formed, aperture 26 demarks the termination of metallized film layer 20 if such layer is present. In the presently preferred embodiment no special treatment of this terminating edge of film layer 20 is required to prevent oxidation or corrosion of the metallized film because of the encapsulating and protective effects of the overlayer 22. While the aperture 26 has been depicted as an elongated slot having rounded ends, other shapes are equally possible.
Referring to FIG. 4, the next step in manufacturing the molding strip is to position insert member 24 into aperture 26. Insert member 24 is of a similar size and shape to aperture 26. The outwardly facing portion of insert member 24 is somewhat smaller in circumferential size so that there is a gap 28 defined between substrate 18 and the insert member 24.
FIG. 5 depicts the insert member 24 in greater detail. As seen, insert member 24 has a lower portion 30 which conforms closely to the size and shape of aperture 26. The upper portion 32 is of a reduced circumferential size to create the gap 28. Of course, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that gap 28, while preferred as increasing the surface of insert member 24 for bonding, is not necessary. Letters 16 can be raised letters as shown.
FIG. 5 also illustrates the makeup of molding strip 10 in greater detail. Molding strip 10 includes substrate 18 upon which a metallized film layer 20 is provided. In practice, the metallized film layer itself comprises a plastic substrate upon which a thin metallized layer or foil layer is secured. As metallized film is conventional, the precise details of the film have been omitted from the drawings to simplify them. Deposited or bonded on top of metallized film layer 20 is a clear or tinted transparent plastic cover layer 34. This layer may be added during the initial fabrication of the molding strip stock, or it may be applied later or concurrently with the application of the metallized film. It will, of course, be understood that in certain applications where the appearance provided by the metallized film is not desired, the metalized film can be omitted.
Substrate 18 is provided with one or more conduits 36 adjacent aperture 26. Conduits 36 communicate with the region directly above the insert member 24. These conduits provide ports through which plastic material may be injected to fill the space immediately above the insert member 24 and thereby create overlayer 22. Conduits 36 may be formed in substrate 18 during fabrication of the molding strip stock or they may be drilled or otherwise formed after stamping to create aperture 26.
One suitable way of forming overlayer 22 is to place the molding strip 10 (or a portion of molding strip 10 adjacent aperture 26) in a mold which provides a mold cavity surface which conforms to the desired exterior configuration of the overlayer. In the presently preferred embodiment, the overlayer is generally flush with, or smooth and continuous with, the exterior surface of molding strip 10 defined by cover layer 34. Once the molding strip is in place, plastic material is injected through conduits 36 so that it fills the space above the insert member 24 and below the mold cavity surface. The plastic material is allowed to cure or harden, whereupon the molding strip may be removed from the mold to produce the finished molding strip. The gap 28 defined between the upper portion 32 and the substrate 18 at aperture 26 provides a surface for good bonding to hold insert member 24 in place. Conduits 36, which are preferably angled as shown, also provide a strong mechanical bond, preventing the overlayer 22 from removal. Overlayer 22 also bonds to overlayer 34 and encapsulates or covers and protects the edge 38 of metallized film 20, so that it will not be exposed to the atmosphere and oxidize.
The resulting molding strip is relatively impervious to attack from the elements and presents no protrusions or crevices which might accumulate dirt and road salt. The indica, encapsulated integrally in the molding strip, is highly aesthetic in appearance and durable. Moreover, the molding strip so manufactured is simple and economical to produce in mass production quantities and does not present the problems associated with conventional emblem mounting techniques such as failing adhesive or rusting at the fastener holes.
While the invention has been described in its presently preferred embodiment, it will be understood that the invention is capable of certain modification and change without departing from the spirit of the invention as set forth in the appended claims.
The molding of the present invention is described as molding for an automotive vehicle, a use to which it is particularly well adapted. However, it will be appreciated that the molding of the present invention is well suited for other uses and such uses are contemplated to be within the broad scope of this invention.

Michael Goforth: A special remembrance needed for a special place in Fort Pierce
It's gone.
I stood on the hill in the thick grass and looked around at the surrounding rows of palm trees and the large banyan tree at the edge with names etched into its ancient gray bark. The only sounds that morning were the chirps of birds and the whooshing of sprinklers spraying their choreographed water.
Although I had been in that place many times before, the vacant patch of land from the knoll, sloping down to the water, seemed oddly unfamiliar.
For more than half a century, the Fort Pierce amphitheater had occupied the space. Nestled on the bank of the Indian River Lagoon, the large, open-air facility had brought generations of the community together for Eastern sunrise services, school performances, concerts by local amateurs and world-class musicians.
I had sat there in the stands, danced and cheered. I had worked backstage in the bandshell when local blues legend Cookie Mariano made her triumphant return with her band, The Vagrantz, after a bout with one of the illnesses that would eventually take her life.
Thousands had built memories to last a lifetime in that amphitheater. But, now it's gone.
The amphitheater and the nearby Backus Museum and Gallery in honor of landscape artist A.E. "Bean" Backus were built in 1960 in what is called Indian River Veterans Memorial Park. They were the primary components of the park, called by some "Sample's Folly," envisioned by Fort Pierce Mayor Wallace Sample.
Kathleen Fredrick, executive director of the gallery, said opposition to park caused the mayor to lose his bid for re-election. Time, though, has proven the late Judge Sample right.
In recent years, public workshops have been held on the future of the park area. Among ideas tossed around, citizens supported a major expansion of the gallery and the removal of the aging amphitheater.
Fredrick said to hold an event in the amphitheater, a payment of $1,000 was required, a fence had to be erected to control entrance, security guards had to be hired and an electrician at a rate of $65 per hour had to be on hand to fix likely electrical problems. And, the bathrooms no longer operated properly. If it rained, too bad for all involved.
Several years ago, the concrete stands were removed because they had deteriorated and become a safety liability for the city. Scheduled amphitheater events were only about twice a year, though the facility was not without regular visitors.
"It just sat there empty, being used by skateboarders and the homeless," Fredrick said.
The opening of the downtown Sunrise Theatre and its Black Box Theatre were the "last nail in the coffin for the amphitheater," Fredrick said. "In its day, it really filled a need in this community, but that day is long gone."
Plans for upgrading the park overall have been drawn but are on hold because of the economy. The $1 million expansion of the museum is under way. A memorial for the late Mayor Sample, near the banyan tree, is included in the plans.
But, there is a missing feature to plans for the park. The amphitheater was initially constructed as a venue for the annual outdoor drama, "Along These Waters," by author and historian Ada Coats Williams. Production of the drama ceased many years ago. The amphitheater, though, served as an ongoing reminder of the contribution to the community made by Williams. With the amphitheater now gone, that reminder has gone.
Plans are needed for a memorial or sculpture in honor of Williams, who remains active at age 90. This could be done through the Art in Public Places program or from private donors wanting to thank her for their amphitheater memories or for other contributions she has made as a writer and teacher.
My dear friend is owed no less.
