LISBON – Lisbon Central School will host a meeting on Feb. 7 in advance of accepting international students for the 2013-2014 school year.
We want to see what the interest is, board of education President Blake P. Gendebien said.
The meeting will be designed to answer questions potential host families may have about the program.
The number of students is going to be based on the number of host families, Mr. Gendebien said.
While Lisbon has hosted foreign exchange students in the past, next year will be the first time the district accepts international students who will be charged tuition.
Superintendent Erin E. Woods said the program will provide a jumping-off point for students who want to attend an American university.
Lisbon is looking to bring only high-achieving students to the school, and they will be enrolled for one year.
But they cant come unless host families volunteer to house them.
Mr. Gendebien said he hopes to help potential host families better understand the program at the Feb. 7 meeting.
The goal is to bring two to five students to Lisbon the first year and gauge the success of the program.
Probably after the first year well have a better understanding of it, Mr. Gendebien said.
The school in March will begin reviewing applications for international students who want to study in Lisbon in the fall.
The Feb. 7 meeting will take place at 6 p.m. in the school auditorium.

|Gurganus record falls at state track meet
|Written by Mike Kelly
|Tuesday, 25 May 2010 12:07
Former Pioneer Sallie Gurganus finally saw her state record fall on Saturday at state track meet in the pole vault event.
Gurganus, a senior at the University of South Carolina, won five state championships (a Watauga High school record) during her tenure with the Pioneers track and field program. She capped off her senior year by winning her fifth and final state title with a record-jump at the time of 12-feet, one inch in 2006.
Unfortunately as the old cliché goes, records are made to be broken. And that's what happened on Saturday at the state track meet. Cassie Crawford of Panther Creek shattered Gurgranus' record by clearing the bar at 12-feet, six inches to win the state title.
But despite losing her grip on the state record, Gurganus still owns the school record at 12-1 and for winning five state titles in the pole vault event. Her best effort at South Carolina came last season at the NCAA Last-Chance Indoor Meet. She cleared the bar with a personal-best jump of 13-2 ¼ and finished sixth.
Gurganus was also an NCAA East Regional qualifier last spring during the outdoor season. She qualified for the NCAA East Preliminaries last weekend with an effort of 12-6 and will compete at North Carolina A&T May 27-29. The top 12 finishers will qualify for the NCAA Outdoor Championships in Eugene, OR June 9-12.

WOONSOCKET — The rising column of black smoke over Fairmount Street Tuesday evening told a well known story for city residents. Another of the city's historic mills was burning.
The column of roiling smoke led to the old U.S. Rubber Co. plant at 85 Fairmount St., more recently known as Tech Industries, and flames were quickly destroying the four-story brick and wood structure.
The fire initially erupted out third and fourth-floor windows near one of the mill's two distinctive bell towers around 7:45 p.m. and quickly spread across the affected floors.
Flames proceeded to pour through most of the windows on the upper floors of the structure originally built as a textile plant in the 1890s.
City firefighters rushed to put lines on the building from the front parking lot off Fairmount Street but it appeared those efforts would be futile as several loud explosions sounded from deep inside the old mill and a some type of compressed gas tank released its contents in with prolonged hissing sound.
Soon, the entire front of the mill gushed orange plumes of flame and the black ugly cloud above blocked out the perfectly blue early evening sky.
A burst of sparks from nearby power lines signaled the start of a power outage in the area that was through much of Main Street well into the night.
City fighters were joined by all the area's surrounding departments as the fight against the fire became one to contain its spread to the surrounding multi-family properties and nearby industrial buildings.
As the flames consumed the bell towers at about 8:50 p.m., a city fire company working near a ladder tower hose in the front parking lot called for a rescue after a firefighter went down. The rescue crew carried the overcome firefighter away on a stretcher while administering an IV bag of fluids.
Woonsocket Fire Chief Gary Lataille later said the firefighter was transported to the hospital but did not know the firefighter's condition at that point.
None of the estimated 100 firefighters on scene was able to fight the fire from inside the mill due to the extreme fire load, Lataille said.
Luckily there was hardly any wind and the flames were largely being contained within the walls of the mill, he said.
"At this point we are just trying to maintain the perimeter we have and keep the fire in the structure," Lataille said at the scene. There were reports of some embers falling across the nearby Blackstone to the opposite shore and sparking some small brush fires off River Street. There were no reports of fire spreading to other structures but responding fire companies could be seen checking the surrounding neighborhoods for any problems and setting up additional lines to be used if needed.
Lataille said he did not yet have any information on the cause of the fire or what may have caused the explosions heard early on in the fire. State and local fire investigators, city police detectives and State Police were all at the scene while the fire was under way.
Bellingham Fire Chief Richard F. Ranieri and Blackstone Fire Chief Michael Sweeney directed firefighters from their communities in controlling flames from the side of the mill near the intersection of Fairmount and River Street. The fire illuminated the scene in an orange glow highlighted with bright flashes as parts of the building's walls collapsed inward and sent flames and sparks roiling skyward.
Firefighters from North Smithfield, Cumberland and Burrillville could also be seen setting up points of support to control the blaze. The fire could be seen from all points of the city and drew crowds of spectators to roads blocked off by police. Lataille said the fire was being monitored as to its impact on air quality and surrounding neighborhoods and evacuations ordered if that were deemed necessary at any point.
Paul R. Mathias, the owner of a nearby mill building at 84 Fairmount St., the former Jules Desurmont Worsted Co., said he received several phone calls about the fire around 7:30 p.m. and rushed the scene thinking his property was affected.
"It was overwhelming," Mathias said of coming upon the building structure.

When the legislature mandated that all schools get letter grades, it was a blow to many who felt that system of grading schools was too simplistic.
On Monday, however, some schools did not fare any better under the UCAS (Utah Comprehensive Accountability System) when the Utah State Board of Education released those results. UCAS was a previously-adopted system of rating schools until the legislature passed HB 148 and put the letter grade system in. Most educators disliked the letter grading system when it was proposed and thought that UCAS was more fair and complete.
But while some still languished with less glowing reviews, other schools came out looking even better than they did under the grading system. Carbon High, for instance, got a B overall when the letter grades were released three weeks ago, but on Monday it ranked higher among all but five high schools in the state with a score of 502 (a 98th overall ranking among all schools). The ultimate score on the evaluation would be 600 if any one school had attained it. The top high school rated by the system was the Northern Utah Academy for Math, Engineering and Science with a score of 541. That campus is located in Davis County and it is a charter school.
Carbon came out extremely well in science and language arts, but was low in mathematics when the grade report was released. Those low scores in math once again influenced this ranking, too.
"We found that last year, because of the way the tests were given, that out of 500 students at Carbon High, only 30 kids were tested to give the school its complete math score," said Carbon School District Superintendent Steve Carlson. "Some of the low grades on the test in math also resulted from the Utah core switchover we are in. We started teaching the core last year, but the math tests hadn't caught up with that yet. In other words what we were teaching was not coordinated with what was being tested for."
Carlson also mentioned that after a long meeting with both the high school and junior high schools math teachers he found out something else.
"We have this gap between those students that know and those that don't," he said. "We have realized that there are kids in a classroom that get it and those that just don't. It is a gap where there is no middle ground. Because of that we are using some interventions to improve the math outcomes."
The UCAS system measures both growth within a schools academics and its achievement. While many disliked the letter grade system, UCAS uses the same reference tests to evaluate the schools. The tests are called CRTs (Criterion Referenced Tests) and are taken by various students from the third grade and above.
Alternative schools across the state got the worst wrap from the system as a number of them earned very low scores on the UCAS system (many had also gotten "F"s under the grading system).
Lighthouse High School, Carbon School District's alternative campus, came in with a 451.
None of the district's elementary schools were within the top 10 primary grade schools in the state, but all had respectable scores. Castle Heights was rated with 350 points, Wellington with 402, Bruin Point with 500, Sally Mauro with 416 and Creekview with 365.
Castle Heights was one of those schools that got a lower grade under the other system earlier this fall and everyone wondered why. Their achievement was good (244) but growth was low at 106. That same happened under the UCAS release.
"Growth in academics in a school like that is a problem," said Carlson concerning the fact that 300 points are available for achievement and another 300 are for growth in academics. "The problem is that they have already moved the kids up (academically)."
That means that then growth scores are low and since it counts as 50 percent of the rating, it hurts schools that are already achieving well.
Of the two junior highs in the district, Mont Harmon came in with a 365 and Helper had a 424.
Carbon High got 267 out of 300 for growth and 235 out of 300 for achievement. Lighthouse had a high rate of growth (274) but a lower rate of overall achievement (177).
At the junior highs Helper had growth points of 183 while achievement was at 241. Mont Harmon had growth of 141 with achievement at 234.
The other elementaries in the district also came in with fairly good scores on both. Bruin Point had relatively high achievement (249) and high growth (251). Wellington came in with 210 and 252 for growth and achievement respectively. Creekview got 130 for growth and 235 for achievement. Sally Mauro Elementary had 178 points for growth and 238 for achievement.
While there were scores and scoring sheets for the Castle Valley Center Elementary and High School the records are not complete on the site.
"The state is still trying to figure out how to handle the special schools like this," stated Carlson.
Anyone wanting to view the release of the evaluation can go to www.1.usa.gov/1eVsxjm. It lists not only the ratings but also other information about the schools such as class sizes, socioeconomic information, etc.

PAWTUCKET—A 19-year-old city man is expected to recover after being impaled by a metal fence post in an accident at 167 Carter Street early Sunday morning.
According to Pawtucket Police, Kelvin Fernandez, of 970 York Ave., was a passenger in a car in which the driver struck the fence and foundation of a property at 163 Carter Ave. and came to rest in front of a house at 167 Carter Ave. at around 3:05 a.m.
According to the accident report, when police arrived, the driver and another passenger had fled the scene and left behind Fernandez in the heavily damaged Nissan Altima. In addition to front end damage, a large piece of metal fence had wrapped around the vehicle and tore through the driver's side door. Officer Keith Shillan observed that the piece of metal had also punctured Fernandez, entering through his back, right above his left hip, and was coming out of his upper leg.
Police called for rescue workers to bring the Jaws of Life, which they used to cut the pole. Fernandez, who was the owner of the vehicle, was transported to Rhode Island Hospital, where he underwent surgery. He was reported to be in stable condition.
Shillan also wrote that the gas mater at 167 Carter d Ave. had been damaged and there was a strong odor of gas in the area. National Grid was called and all residents living between 161 and 174 Carter Avenue were evacuated.
According to police, witnesses who were driving south on Perrin Avenue at the time of the crash said they saw a black male throw an object into a backyard of 95 Perrin Ave. and then run down the street. They then said they saw the accident and was told the male had fled the scene. During a subsequent search of 95 Perrin Ave., police found a large empty brandy bottle. Police had also received a call that froma resident of Hunts Aveneue reporting a male running through their backyard.
Police were later able to trace the two young men who had fled the scene, including the alleged driver. According to police, the vehicle was operated by Claudio Rocha, of 19, of 105 Hughes Ave. Police said Rocha had passed out in the cell when he had been taken for questioning and was transported to the Memorial Hospital. A 17-year-old male, who had also been a passenger, was questioned
Based on blood evidence collected from Rocha in the hospital, police say he will be charged with driving while intoxicated. According to the accident report, he reportedly admitted to drinking prior to the crash and told police he thought he had "blacked out." He also said he had not realized that Fernandez had been injured.
The house at 167 Carter Ave. belongs to Vincent J. Tripoline. There was damage to the metal fence, porch railings, front columns, and gas meter, and minor damage to his vehicle, which was parked in the driveway.

There is a big difference.

Christains that tell children about Jesus BELIEVE that they are telling the truth.

Questeruk i agree with you the difference is in how very differently they are promoted.And that very big difference is what partly causes the difference between Santa Claus who dont really often cause much trouble or hurt many folks so much.
And Jesus/gods/faith/superstition who do often cause much trouble and hurt folks.
The difference lays in that truth/honesty bit,the difference in people promoting it as being honest truth or honestly being myth/culture/history etc.
Should humans ever really expect much long term good to ever likely be seen to come from matters of deceit though? ..How often do we humans really benefit longterm from any matters of deceit in our lives?
One day when folks finally come to their senses faith/gods will be more thought of and promoted like Santa . A myth..Part of our culture and maybe a bit of fun ..A reason for folks to have connection to gather together and sing ancient cultural songs.Songs that often make the hairs on the back of yer neck stand up!, often sounding a lot like someone must be either standing on the cats tail, or else a mournfully sad howling blizzard just blown in.

I love it! Just imagine how people would respond to an adult who still believed in Santa. That is precisely how we all should respond to those who think that they have a personal relationship with a dead guy who may or may not have ever lived.

- Tristan D. Vick said...
The polemic serves the purpose of revealing the logic errors. Flying spaghetti monsters, celestial teapots, and Santa all do a great deal to show that where evidence is lacking "belief" isn't enough to validate a claim.
It may be polemic, but it's harmless, and it does a great deal of consciousness raising too. Totally necessary.

- Manifesting Mini Me (MMM) said...
The thing is, we couldn't be entrusted with Jesus, so what makes you think we can handle an innocent like Santa? We would probably commercialize, idolize and exploit him for greeds' sake and crucify...oh...guess that's already been done. Well, there may be some who could be trusted with both Santa and Jesus - who do not corrupt.

|Hickory, W-S Airport Towers to Close
|Written by Steve Frank
|Saturday, 23 March 2013 07:20
Two airport control towers that serve our area are being closed due to budget cuts in the sequester. The tower at the Hickory airport, and the tower at the Winston-Salem airport are on the list of 149 towers to be unmanned by the FAA with the cuts. There are a number of other smaller airports
that are regular destinations from our area also effected, including Greenville-Spartanburg and Myrtle Beach. The towers are all part of the FAA's contract-tower program, with third-party controllers staffing towers at some small airports. The FAA will close the 149 towers over four weeks beginning on April 7. As part of its $637 million in sequester cuts, the FAA had proposed to close 189 towers at airports with fewer than 10,000 commercial takeoffs and landings a year. But the agency recently called on airports to explain why their towers should remain open. Some 24 airports were spared through that process.

Single Malt, Single Cask, Scotch Whisky. Distilled in 1977 and Bottled in 2004. Bottled at preferred cask strength of 50% alc./vol. Matured and Distilled in Scotland. 1 of 259 bottlings. A bottling from one cask DL REF 1500 refill hogshead. By Douglas Laing & Co Ltd.
The Macallan Distillery is probably one of the most famous brands in the whisky industry today. The distillery is three miles from Craigellachie which is the heart of the Speyside region. Even though Macallan is located in the heart of Speyside they have labeled it a Highland malt. The distillery was founded in 1824 and was named the Elchies Distillery. Macallan has 8 wash stills and 18 spirit stills and produces around 8,000,000 litres a year. In 2001 Macallan opened up a new visitor center. The tour that Macallan provides is very in depth and is great if you are just starting out and learning all about whisky. It shows all the processes and the maturation all the way down to microscopic slides so you can understand what happens. It is worth visiting.

All jokes aside.......next thing coming will be body cavity screening....."tampons" can be contraband tubes unfortunately.
Now that Stinks :)
For real!
i guess that made it the most expensive boob job in the world !!
I got to wonder how they got that close to see the blood and all. She should have been waring a real covering blouse or else she let them get a lot closer than they should have.lol
Evidently they have no Fourth Amendment over there...
WOW, Some kid almost got a real high :) All jokes aside, hope they catch the moron trying this, and a good catch for who ever found it.
If she had waited a week or so, she probably would have made it.. sounds like she got sliced the day before travel.
Trouble is, they only ever catch the mules, not the kingpins. Good job to the Spanish police but imagine if that happened in the USA and the implants were found to be normal!
Depending on what she looked like, he could have gotten lucky, or one heck of a slap in the face.
silicone or cocaine. whats more toxic?
well thats a strange way of drug smuggling
Just how low can smugglers and their minders get? The couriers are in the main victims but they continue to do it for varied reasons but it is those the design and execute this transportation of illegal subsances that should be caught and shut away til domesday if necessary.
I now can see thousands of women with generously proportioned chests being subject to unwarranted checks and invasive examinations at airports and this is frightening!!
I'm wondering if the woman consented to having them removed (probably thinking that the gig is up) or if they could literally cut her open against her will. While I don't condone drug trafficking, I don't like the thought of perform surgery on suspects on a hunch.
Don't think it was a hunch. I'm sure she wanted it out before it killed her.
I did not read anywhere whether the woman is suspected of collaborating, or if she is believed to be a victim. This clearly shows that drug cartels are continuously probing (no pun intended, really...) to see where they might find new smuggling paths. I wonder if they still have mules swallowing cocaine filled condoms, and inserting drug filled chargers into their bodies, or if those methods have been defeated. I do not envy drug enforcement authorities, who try to stay ahead of this kind of creative, albeit sadistic and inhumane, smuggling mentality. Very astute catch on the screener's part...
Thats it, I'm going to get hired by the TSA! If we have to take shoes off because of the shoe bomber, I gotta get a job checking for these now - I can't wait to start checking :)
You know what, if they want to go to these extremes to get a few ounces of coke - I say let them keep it. LOL.
Is there going to be a new "no flying list" for implantees?
This war on drugs is not working.. I saw on TV they had submarines !!!
lol. Got to be a lot more here than being told and it raises a whole lot more questions than it does give answers, other than can people really be that stupid?????
BTW, how's the back doing?
Im trying to stay positive despite the pain. Looks like I need to fuse spine from c7 to L2 +/- Thats nearly my entire spine. I've had scoliosis my whole life and it was only 20 degrees and stopped progressing when I stopped growing. Accident more than doubled my curve to 55 degrees and I lost over 1/3 to 1/2 of my right lungs volume from the spine protruding into my chest cavity. It may still me getting worse too. That plus the other fuses in my T spine and C spine - I don't know If I will be able to move that well after the surgery. If the pain is better hopefully I can go back to flying - if not they will most likely implant a pain pump in my body.
Kinda scared to also hopeful that I may be feeling better in the future. I will know more on Friday when I see the Dr again (which is also the end of the world) LOL
I haven't slept tonight - even my pain meds aren't enough sometimes. Tried everything from tea, melatonin, anti-histamines, tylenol PM.... But I have been sleeping better than before my c5-c6 fusion now that the shooting pain down my right arm happens less often.
How are you doing?
Well, I'm hanging in there. The wife has that scoliosis too and there was no bother to her out of childhood until she was early 60's; still not bad but it gives her bother at times. Pain meds are all the can do with hers and she just has to tuff it out for a day or 3 until it passes. As far as me, I'm not overdoing it. We got the CRJ the 1st of the month. Although just out of mod, mx looked it over for a week. We went up some last week. Flight Ops director(my replacement) took it up one day this week I think, and the newbys have gone down to Ft Worth for some SIM time and training. He told me Monday that he doubted I'd do anything until after the 1st of the year. What air time the newbys get, he can give it to them. January, February all the meetings will start and we'll get busy but these 2 guys are a lot further along than we could have imagined. They each have better than 2000+ hours, all rating and into a turboprop, just nothing in a true jet/type. At least we don't have to teach them how to fly. They took to the CRJ like a duck to water, and I think after Christmas that Dude will give them some time in the 767. Then the 1st of the year, we got two experienced, but new to us, guys coming in for the King Ar, so it's gonna be fun.lol. Get yourself better and back in the air. Wayne
I have so much empathy for people with back pain! Once I get myself better I may give you a holler if you don't mind. I have 6500-7000 hours +/-, with CL65 PIC type rating and probably 2000 in type, maybe half of that PIC. GOD - I miss flying so much, I can't wait to get all healed up and back in the air ASAP.
If I do get better after this surgery I am going to get back in the saddle as fast as humanly possible. I've already lost 2 years of my life to this, and I just refuse to let my dreams go. I want to fly so bad I can smell the Jet A just talking about it.
My pain management doctor says my days of flying are over- I would love to prove that guy wrong. He sent me to a psychologist to help me come to grips with never flying again - I would love to have a picture taken at work telling him what I think about his dream-busting comments. That alone will get me through Physical Therapy after the surgery!
Have a great day- I gotta try and sleep at least a couple of hours today. I get really nauseous when I don't sleep for a few days in a row because when I'm exhausted I can't handle the pain as well and can end up in the hospital again.
I doubt we'd have anythinng up there as most folks are like me. They get on there, they retire there. You can't never tell these days though. I got a lot of friends around, most in KTUL,KOKC area, some KXNA but all 135, but corporate, no charter. You would have to be willing to relocate out this way though. 1st things 1st though, prove your doc wrong, then w can talk.
Wonder what TSA pay is for a breast checker? Maybe instead of retiring I'll just change jobs. Lol
Imagine if they did the surgery and found out they were wrong? They'd have a double-D lawsuit on their hands!
Now that woman has got to be some kind of boob! ;)
They should have just removed it in the police station with a Swiss pocket knife. Lol
Where you been anyway?
TCB. This is retirement month and lots of other things all at once.

Corey is currently the longest-tenured Clipper -- coming over from Orlando during the Clinton administration. Eight years is a long time for an athlete in his prime to remain on any roster. Where could Corey end up?
Only the Memphis Grizzlies and Philadelphia 76ers have abundant cap space this summer, with the Clippers now joining that list. Other teams would be able to offer Maggette, who was owed $7 million had he remained with the Clippers, the lesser mid-level exception.
The Clippers have maintained they hope to re-sign Maggette; however, a sign-and-trade deal with him could also be in the team's plans.
Philadelphia has Andre Iguodala and Thad Young [who is a pure 3, despite the fact that he saw time at the 4 in small lineups]. Memphis has O.J. Mayo and Rudy Gay. Maggette has long been a sentimental favorite of Donald Tokowitz, though his relationship with Coach Mike Dunleavy has been tumultuous. He'd be a useful piece on the wing for a lot of teams, though I don't know that he's worth more than the mid-level to any of them.
Wherever Maggette ends up, it'll be strange to see him in road colors at a Clippers home game in 08-09.
No reports on Elton Brand's decision as of yet.

GREAT BEND Carthage Central School Districts transportation director is asking for a budget increase of nearly 13 percent next year to cover growing expenses.
Its taking more money to get the same job done, essentially, Transportation Director John K. Gibbons told the Board of Education on Wednesday.
Board members heard presentations on the transportation and facilities budgets for 2013-14.
Mr. Gibbons proposed a total transportation budget of $3,352,316, an increase of $382,500, or 12.9 percent, from this year to pay for four additional drivers and non-salary-related expenses, such as bus insurance and diesel fuel costs.
The cost of bus insurance alone has increased $30,000 this year, Mr. Gibbons said.
The bulk of the budget, $2,156,346, was proposed to go toward drivers, aides and office support salaries.
We are much tighter than we were at budget time last year, Mr. Gibbons said. Theres no frills, no real exciting stuff built into the increase.
Business Manager Amy M. Marrocco, filling in for Facilities Director Jeremy Theiser, said Mr. Theiser proposed a $3,998,554 budget, an increase of $147,786, or 3.8 percent, from this years $3,850,768.
The majority of the cost, $2,038,036, was proposed for operations and maintenance labor, which include salaries, overtime and substitutes. About $1.2 million is proposed for the utilities costs.
Despite the total increase, Mr. Theiser did not anticipate an increase in the gas, electric and water bills, which Ms. Marrocco said were at an all-time low.
Ms. Marrocco said Mr. Theiser was hoping to start replacing a truck or van every year and work mowers and floor cleaners into the rotation, if possible.
He had a rotation schedule in the past, but unfortunately in a difficult budget year, thats an easy place to cut, said Superintendent Peter J. Turner.

A Federal court will likely determine how far employers must go to accommodate the religious practices of their staff members.
According to media reports, the Justice Department (DOJ) has sued a school district in Illinois for refusing to grant a Muslim employee three weeks off to make a pilgrimage to Mecca. The government's lawsuit was filed in December 2010, two years after Safoorah Khan resigned from her teaching position at MacArthur Middle School in Berkeley, Ill.
In her first full year of employment, Khan requested three weeks of unpaid leave in December of 2008 to attend Hajj, the annual Muslim pilgrimage in Saudi Arabia. The school denied her request because it fell just prior to students' final exams.
Khan quit her job and took her case to the Chicago Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, which ruled in her favor and referred the case to the DOJ. The government agency claims that the school district violated Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 by denying an employee the opportunity to practice her religion.
Critics of the lawsuit argue that the school had the right to deny Khan's request because her time off would have significantly interfered with her job.
"The Justice Department is using its power and law to push frankly extreme cultural and other views that the ordinary American person does not agree with," said former DOJ Civil Rights Division lawyer Hans von Spakovski, quoted by FOX News.

Research Summary
Endothelial cells play central roles in development and maintenance of the vascular system and in the processes of inflammation and metastasis. Interactions with cell adhesion molecules, surrounding matrix, and soluble factors directs endothelial cell responses; yet little is known about these complex interactions and the mechanisms involved in signal transduction. Specifically, we are investigating the roles of homotypic and heterotypic cell adhesion molecules, integrins, junction associated molecules, and extracellular matrix components in modulating vascular development and behavior. We are also investigating neural stem cell-endothelial cell interactions and the roles of T-cell and endothelial cell proteinases and proteinase inhibitors in modulating T-cell transendothelial migration and their roles in initiating and maintaining the inflammatory response in murine models of autoimmune disease and in several tissue culture models. A multi-disciplinary approach is used which includes the use of knockouts, transgenics, tissue and embryo culture model systems of cell adhesion, migration, and angiogenesis.

Extensive Research Description
Research Focus: The interests of my laboratory center around investigations of signaling pathways stimulated following endothelial cell-cell and endothelial cell-extracellular interactions and how they influence the processes of Vasculogenesis, angiogenesis and transendothelial migration.
Endothelial cells play central roles in the development, growth and maintenance of the vascular system as well as in the processes of inflammation, repair and metastasis. Vascular cell homotypic and heterotypic interactions and vascular cell interactions with the surrounding matrix, soluble factors and circulating blood cells (leukocytes, monocytes and lymphocytes), in part, direct the vascular cells' responses; yet little is known about these complex interactions and the mechanisms involved in information transduction from the extracellular environment to the cell nucleus.
We are currently investigating the roles of selected homotypic and heterotypic cell adhesion molecules (PECAM-1 & CD44), integrins (selected beta1, beta 2 and beta 3 integrins), junction associated molecules (VE-cadherin, ZO-1, Occludin) and extracellular matrix components (MMPs) in modulating vascular cell and T cell behavior (attachment, spreading, proliferation, migration, interactions with mononuclear (T) cells and angiogenesis). Specific projects in the laboratory currently include:
1) Elucidation of the roles of the cytoplasmic domains of Platelet Endothelial Cell Adhesion Molecule-1 (PECAM-1/CD31) and CD44 in modulating endothelial and T cell behavior, vascular development and dermal wound healing as well as the signaling mechanisms involved. We are investigating how differential tyrosine and serine phosphorylation of the PECAM-1 cytoplasmic domain modulates associations with specific proteins including beta- and gamma-catenin; STAT3&5, c-src, SHP-2 and small G proteins. We are also investigating the dynamic interactions between CD44 and CD31.
2) Identification and elucidation of the signal transduction pathways activated following T cell-endothelial cell binding and subsequent CD44 and PECAM-1 signaling prior to, during and following T cell transmigration into tissues. We are investigating the mechanisms of induction, clustering and activation of T cell and endothelial cell matrix metalloproteinase-2 [MMP-2 ], membrane type matrix metalloproteinase [MT1-MMP/MMP-14], matrix metalloproteinases [MMP-9] and CD44. Selected knock out mouse strains (CD44 KO) are also utilized in animal models of autoimmune encephalomyelitis.
3) Elucidation of the mechanisms of hypoxia-driven cerebral angiogenic responses noted in the premature infant population and their association with neurodevelopmental handicaps. Animal, organ and tissue culture models of chronic hypoxia coupled with cDNA array analysis are used to investigate the responses of the cerebral microvascular endothelial cells and the roles of the vasculature in causing resultant neurodevelopmental handicaps. The dynamic roles of HIF-1alpha and Sox10 in endothelial and neural stem cell responses to and recovery from hypoxic insult are being investigated.
1) Elucidation of the mechanisms involved in the recovery of neurodevelopmental handicaps incurred during and following premature birth and recovery from spinal cord injury.
3) Elucidation of the mechanisms involved in lymphocyte transmigration through endothelial cells during inflammation.
4) Elucidation of the roles of PECAM-1 (CD31) and CD44 in vasculo- and angiogenesis, permeability, inflammation, directed migration, hemostasis and hematopoiesis and bone metabolism.

Stuart B. Kincaid MD
About the Practice
Practice Philosophy
Stuart B. Kincaid, M.D., F.A.C.S., a graduate of Duke Medical School with surgical training fellowships at Standford, Harvard and U.C. San Francisco, is an accomplished cosmetic plastic surgeon with an office in San Diego/La Jolla and Temecula/Riverside. He has received numerous awards for his expertise and results including but not limited to the Readers Choice Award for Best Plastic Surgeon by La Jolla Village News, Best Cosmetic Surgeon by Best of San Diego, Best Cosmetic Surgeon by La Jolla Light Magazine Reader's Poll, Best Cosmetic Surgeon - Best of Temecula by Valley News and most recently the Talk of the Town Award for Excellence in Customer Satisfaction. Additionally, while serving as Chief of Plastic Surgery Services in the US Army Medical Corps, Dr. Kincaid received the Meritorious Service Medal for outstanding patient care and teaching plastic surgery techniques to other medical center personnel during his time served.
Disarmingly charming with an easy-going Midwestern demeanor, Dr. Kincaid understands the unique needs of both his male and female patients. With over 27 years of experience, he has become a highly skilled cosmetic plastic surgeon specializing in all aspects of surgical and non-surgical procedures of the face, body and breast providing exceptional patient care and results to individuals all throughout Southern California, Arizona and the US.
A Message from the Dr. Kincaid
Plastic surgery is a highly specialized area of medicine dealing with the mind and body. I believe the goal of cosmetic plastic surgery should be to bring one's self-image and body-image into better balance; and by so doing, improve one's self-esteem.
The success of your elective cosmetic surgery procedure is greatly dependent upon the plastic surgeon you choose. Each aesthetic (cosmetic) surgery patient has his or her unique reason for pursuing surgery, and it is a very personal one. Some patients are motivated to alter an undesirable physical feature either inherited or acquired, while others simply want to refresh features that have aged over time. My approach to you, the patient, is a highly personalized one. I want to spend ample time with you to fully address your concerns and establish trust in me and the office staff.
My initial consultation with you and subsequent visits will focus on your concerns and expectations. I will make every effort to lend a sensitive ear to your needs. I will then carefully assess, in a private professional manner, those physical features bothersome to you. Together we will proceed in developing a mutually agreed upon treatment plan. It is imperative that realistic goals and expectations be established prior to surgery. It has been my experience that a highly self-motivated, well-informed and realistic cosmetic patient is generally a pleased patient. My commitment is to deliver exceptional cosmetic plastic surgery results that exceed expectations in a safe and comfortable environment and to have a happy, satisfied patient whenever possible. It is important to keep in mind that results may vary from patient to patient given the uniqueness of each individual's physical characteristics and needs. This surgery is offered at affordable prices with payment options that will accommodate most patients' budgets.
My staff and I fully understand that exceptional plastic surgery requires more than board certification alone. Other ingredients must include artistry, attention to detail, compassion, effective communication, self-discipline, experience, integrity, respect for privacy, skillful and delicate application of surgical techniques, natural appearing results, and extensive, ongoing subspecialty training in the field of aesthetic (cosmetic) surgery.
As a seasoned surgeon, with over twenty-seven years experience in plastic surgery; I firmly believe that your surgical result is not an end in itself, but rather a means to an end-that is to say, to help you achieve a happy, healthy and productive life.
To complement your cosmetic surgery result, our office encourages lifestyle changes when necessary, including proper nutrition, regular and age appropriate exercise, stress reduction and skin care. My staff and I welcome an ongoing relationship in helping you attain your lifelong BEST IMAGE!

LOWVILLE For a seventh year, the Walk for Wellness will line the streets with a mass of green, as supporters of Lewis County Mental Health take to the streets Wednesday.
The walk, hosted by Northern Regional Center for Independent Living, will be followed by dinner, a guest speaker and live entertainment provided by The Burglars.
It is a great way to unify and share as a celebration together with the community, said Karen M. Boliver, who heads NRCILs Lowville office.
Participants will assemble at the Lowville Fire Department, 5420 Parkway Drive, starting at 4:30 p.m. The one-mile walk from the fire hall to Tops Plaza and back begins at 5 p.m.
Those unable to attend the walk are welcome to come to the dinner, a presentation by a guest speaker and music following the walk.
Participants are asked to wear green to show support.
To pre-register, call the NRCIL office at 376-8696.

HAMMOND After months of collaboration, the town and villages draft joint comprehensive plan is available on the towns website.
The plan looks at several areas agriculture, business and commerce, governance, housing, industry, infrastructure and land use in order to establish goals, recommendations and implementation methods for economic development.
The community plan was developed by town and village residents, with assistance from the St. Lawrence County Planning Office, a review committee made up of volunteers and the town and village boards.
According to the plan, residents voted to promote the communitys rich agricultural way of life by establishing farmers markets in the village and encouraging community-supported agriculture programs at farms.
To attract more visitors to the area, residents suggested developing a regional recreational trail that begins in Hammond. In order to improve the villages downtown, residents also recommended a housing rehabilitation program.
Local government agencies can apply for funds through a competitive grant application process, the plan states.
Having the plan is expected to place the town and village in a better position to get such funding.
State law requires that the plan be approved by the county Planning Board before it can be a officially considered a communitys plan.
That might happen when the county Planning Board meets Dec. 15.
The plan is online at www.townofhammondny.com.
