Easy as uno, dos, tres.
Immaculate Heart Central kindergarten and first-grade pupils will learn the basics of Spanish next year as a part of the schools pilot youth language program.
As a former counselor, Ive always been biased that if were going to teach foreign languages, the earlier the better, IHC Elementary Principal Gary F. West said. I think the prime time to do it is when kids are very, very young.
The school will hire a part-time Spanish instructor who will dedicate an hour per week to each class.
Mr. West said the language curriculum is being developed. His plan is that the teacher reinforces the core curriculum taught in class as well as teaching the students how to converse in Spanish.
The junior/senior high school teaches Latin, Spanish and French.
If the pilot program goes well, he will add the program to the second grade by the 2014-15 school year. Every year after that, the program will be added to the next grade up.
Learning Spanish, he said, will help the youngest IHC pupils enhance their development of reading, writing, listening and speaking of English as well.
The new program is a part of several initiatives to increase enrollment at the parochial school. In February, Executive System Administrator Christopher E. Hornbarger announced the school is adding a junior kindergarten, the new youth Spanish program and STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) courses in the junior/senior high school.
For Mr. West, however, an increase in enrollment would be the icing on the cake rather than the cake itself for the new program.
At the end of the day, its all about whats best for kids, he said. Yeah, sure, wed like to boost enrollment, but its really all about the kids.

On a diesel engine, how can I know which glow plugs are defective, and can I change these only?
A glow plug is essentially a resister and is tested the same way:
Yes, it is okay to only replace the bad ones. However, if it's a high mileage engine, you may be back under the hood in a week replacing another bad plug. It's up to you to decide on cost vs labor in this situation. A lot of that depends on how hard it is to gain access to the plugs.
Be sure to test the new plugs before installing them.
Everything S_Niles says is correct, but you can save yourself some hassle by checking the resistance before you remove the glowplug(s) from the engine blocks, by touching one end of your ohm meter to the end of the glowplug (after removing the wire/harness from the glowplug), and the other to your engine block. Do this to all of your glowplugs. The glowplug(s) that show greater resistance are bad. Typically, 3 will read (nearly) identical resistance, and the 4th will show much greater resistance (on a 4-cyl engine, of course), and assuming one of the plugs is bad.
Of course this method is far less precise than that described by S_Niles--you could well get higher resistance readings this way. But they key is to look for one plug that has higher resistance than the others.
This method I have used on my 4-cyl TDI engine.
I have always replaced all 4 plugs at once, as (at least for my engine), the parts are inexpensive.

A Versatile Program for Creative Change
Complexity in organizational systems is escalating rapidly. Many leaders see working within this complexity as their greatest challenge. Organizations must be able to mobilize the energy and commitment of their people as co-collaborators, as stake holders who see themselves as leaders, and as willing participants in transformation. It is enormously difficult to develop innovative, successful systems that respond to the emerging global needs for sustainability while creating the conditions for everyone within an organization to contribute to her or his full potential.
This task requires new knowledge, skills, and values. An MA or PhD in Organizational Systems will help you support and lead the kind of change that transforms organizations and the lives of people who work within them. Our programs offer adult students like you significant flexibility to design a course of study that fits your particular interest within the broad focus of organizational systems design and transformation, organizational learning and development, organizational management, and leadership development.
The MA program combines a program of rigorous academic study with:
- Practical application of innovative new ideas and approaches
- A comprehensive understanding of how systems connect and impact each other
- Exploration of new approaches to organizational management and leadership development
The PhD program is designed for advanced students who have a masters degree and who want to develop further skills to contribute to innovative organizational and social systems change. If you want to combine research and practice, if you want to contribute to theoretical work in the field, then the PhD in Organizational Systems is for you. Our program is taught by faculty who are leaders in the field of human systems and can pass on their expertise to you.
Real World Application
Both degrees can help you improve your possibilities for career advancement or improve performance in your current position in management, consulting, human resources, or non-profit leadership, among other fields. These programs will help you develop the skills and confidence you need to manage organizations, work with complexity, and lead in a time of transition, whether in business, education, public service, or social services.
Blended Learning Model
Our online hybrid MA/PhD programs in the Department of Leadership and Management combine the best of both online learning and in-person classes and seminars. You are able to participate in the program remotely, through interactive online classes, teleconferences, and small group sessions, without relocating or disrupting your schedule.
Twice a year, you'll come to Seattle or San Francisco to participate in a five-day Residential Conference, working with instructors and fellow students face-to-face. It's a highly successful learning model that is specifically suited to people who don't want to disrupt their careers while getting an education. We pride ourselves in the strong learning community we have developed within our hybrid teaching approach. Students and faculty know each other well and support each other through providing encouragement, academic support, and resources.

Most in the local area know just how vital the Eastern Utah United Way is to the annual Angel Tree program, which the group coordinates and organizes here in the Castle Valley.
What comes as a surprise to many, however, is that the charity organization focuses year around on similar projects which have an impact all over the Castle Country.
Currently, the United Way is working toward celebrating President's Day by collecting hygiene essentials for individuals in the community who might not have access to the most basic of products. The collected items will then be donated to the Colleen Quigley Crisis Center, the Children's Justice Center, Active Re-Entry and the Carbon County Food Bank.
"We could not enjoy the success we have with out local programs without the community support we receive," said Carole Wright, Campaign Coordinator for the United Way of Eastern Utah. "The amount of support we get from this area's population is truly extraordinary."
The Eastern Utah United Way has been serving the Castle Valley for more than 30 years. Headquartered on Main Street in Price, Wright and director Bill Maikranz make up the local office's entire paid staff. In addition to the Angel Tree and current Essentials Drive, the local United Way participates in programs including an annual Day of Caring, the Salons for Survival drive and plans to start a reading project at Creekview and Castle Heights later this year.
"Our focus is education, income and health and we are also proud of the way this organization returns the support it gets," said Wright. "Last year we gave back to the community 78 percent of what was taken in at the local office. Our goal is 100 percent."
One of the programs which allow the United Way to have a staff and residence here in Eastern Utah is the Cornerstone project.
"The United Way could not get the resources it needs without our cornerstone partners, the corporations which allow us to conduct employee campaigns," explained Wright. "In these campaigns, employees provide a payroll deduction which is matched by their employer and then we give that deduction back to the community. We have seven partner agencies that the employee payroll deductions can go toward, and the individuals can choose who they would like to support."
In this area, Cornerstone partners include Rocky Mountain Home Health, Community Nursing Services, Active Re-Entry, Waibai Sabi (Thriftstore) and the Multicultural Center in Moab, the Sun Center and the AAA Fair Credit Foundation.
United Way has come together with VISTA to make their President's Day Essentials Drive a success.
Those interested in giving to the program can take tooth brushes and toothpaste, body wash and soap, hand towels, laundry detergent, dish soap, shampoo and conditioner and feminine hygiene products to the United Way, Walmart, Fresh Market, Smith's Food and Drug, the Carbon County Senior Center and the Jennifer Leavitt Student Center through Feb. 20.

Beloit, WI -- The Beloit College Women's Lacrosse team made history on Wednesday night at Strong Stadium, racing past Loras College 23-2 for the first victory in program history.
The Buccaneers scored the first six goals of the game and led 13-2 at the half. Erin Chambers had six of the 13 first-half scores while Cate Rubin had three and Sara Fithian two. Sarah Pipal added three assists.
The second half was much the same as the first with Beloit outscoring the DuHawks 10-0. Rubin had two goals in the half while both Sam Schonberger and Marcail Distante had a goal and an assist.
Chambers finished with seven goals while Rubin had five. Pipal had three goals and three assists and Schonberger a goal and four assists.
The Bucs look to keep the momentum going on Sunday when they finish a three-game, season-opening homestand against Fontbonne University. Game time is at 11:00 a.m.

Read: The Process Chris Kreider Still Needs To Go Through
Last season, split between Boston College and the Rangers, Chris Kreider played a total of 62 games which was the most he has played in one season.
In his first two seasons Kreider, between BC and representing Team USA, played around 50 games.
Ken Gernander told the NY Times that one of the big things that Kreider will have to go through this season is dealing with an 80 game, plus playoff, grind.
"For Chris right now the challenge is to develop into a professional. He's never had to play an 80-game grind. Big moments like the N.C.A.A. tournament or the world junior championship, it's not the same as a professional who has to grind it out with the same group over the long haul just to get into the playoffs."
Kreider has two assists and 23 penalty minutes in four games with the Whale. He was suspended for last night's win because of a hit he delivered over the weekend.

RUSSELL Officials in the Edwards-Knox Central School District dont plan to hire a new high school principal this school year because they want a larger pool of candidates to apply for the job.
A replacement is needed for Michelle J. Varian, who was terminated from the principals job during a Board of Education meeting Jan. 28.
Despite receiving letters of support from the public on Mrs. Varians behalf, board members voted 9-0 to remove her from the $81,291-a-year job.
Although her termination date is March 28, Mrs. Varian has not worked since mid-December, when she was placed on paid administrative leave for undisclosed reasons.
Contacted by telephone, Mrs. Varian said she felt discouraged by the boards decision.
A reason for the firing was not provided in the letter she received following the board meeting.
I dont have any recourse, Mrs. Varian said, noting she does not have tenure status, which offers employment protection. At this point, Im interviewing for new positions at other places.
Although she would not discuss details, Mrs. Varian said the situation that led to her termination involved Superintendent Suzanne L. Kelly.
This is between myself and Sue Kelly, she said. The problems were there before I came, and they will be there after I leave.
Before coming to Edwards-Knox in 2010, Mrs. Varian was employed at Rocky Mount Preparatory School in North Carolina.
She said she has lined up two interviews, one at a private school in North Carolina and one in another part of New York state.
Ms. Kelly said high school science teacher Amy L. Sykes will work as an administrative intern in the high school principals office. Her teaching duties have been assigned temporarily to Russell C. Koster, a substitute.
Duties Mrs. Sykes isnt allowed to handle because of restrictions in her teachers union contract will be handled by Ms. Kelly and elementary school Principal Amy L. Lamitie.
The district is advertising for a chemistry and physics teacher to replace Mrs. Sykes for the remainder of the school year.
However, the principal job wont be advertised any time soon, Ms. Kelly said in an email message.
We will not be posting the principal position at this time as we feel there would be a stronger candidate pool at the end of the school year instead of midstream, she said.
The board meets again at 6:30 p.m. Monday in the media center.

Global Dimming II
Why should clouds change? Global warming for example. Surprised? Most climate simulations predict some "global dimming" due to the water vapor and cloud feedback of greenhouse gas forced global warming. Global warming, however, affects the entire atmosphere whereas global dimming is only a surface and near-surface phenomena. Hence global warming and global dimming are not exclusive or contradictory. (Incidentally, the decline of solar energy at the surface inferred in my study is about 60% of the increasing longwave radiation in a typical global warming climate simulation (Feichter et al. 2004)). With global warming, atmospheric moisture increases and this makes the atmosphere slightly less transparent to sunlight. Furthermore once clouds are formed, they tend to hold more water and therefore look a little darker.
Anthropogenic aerosols were however singled out in the BBC documentary. They are correctly believed to change cloud reflectivity and cloud lifetime. Scientists are currently trying to assess the magnitude of these aerosol-cloud interactions and the impact on climate. Rotstyn's study on the Sahel drought is one example. But as Giannini et al.'s study showed, you can look look at the Sahel drought with a number of different approaches. Clouds have always posed the greatest challenge for climatologists and I regard my own research on as a contribution to this ongoing debate.
Currently, the best climate models include estimates of all these effects: anthropogenic greenhouse gas forcings, aerosols, natural solar cycles, and volcanic eruptions (see here for example). The inclusion of aerosols in climate simulations has improved the model hindcasts when tested against past climate and dimming (Wild and Liepert, 1998). The latest climate projections for the future therefore all include some estimates of aerosol changes. The scientifically interesting and new part is that introducing aerosols requires a closer scrutiny of surface energy and water budgets than was previously done. An example of this kind of analysis of a climate model in the context of "global dimming" can be seen in Liepert et al. (2004), but other model groups are currently performing similar analyses too.
Finally a comment on language. It concerns me that articles from scientists and journalists alike have a tendency to use biblical and apocalyptic terms. This might be an appropriate way to describe a baroque church in Bavaria or a painting of P.P. Rubens (for instance in my favorite museum, the Alte Pinakothek in Munich) but I would rather keep this emotive language out of scientific discussions.

Surgeon Testimonial
Alberto Aceves
My first impression of Aceves was he is a kind-mannered professional, ready to educate me on the journey and risks with a soft kind voice. I trusted him before I met him and he more than fulfilled my expectations as my surgeon, even unwrapping my legs for me after my surgery while we chatted and putting my slippers on for me. Campos was just as happy to educate and help out, and hung out with us on our laptops for a bit in the hospital since there was no one else to talk to during my stay. The anesthesiologist explained everything he was going to do during my surgery, and I don't remember a thing from the first IV injection. The staff was impeccable, giggling with me and helping me as soon as I needed anything, I had no later infections. The hospital is scrubbed everywhere at least three times a day due to it being owned by doctors. The aftercare is so emphasized it was like being trained for a new life as you heal, with an online nurse emailing me daily with reminders. My incisions are very small and healing fast, they take every pain precaution and make every decision based on patient safety. I rate my surgical team and hospital Almater very highly. 9.5/10!

Physician and Saybrook Mind-Body Medicine Student Pete Buecker Creates Wellness Center03/26/2013
Dr. Pete Buecker initially became interested in mind-body medicine as a way to manage his own stress and health. His interest led him to study Mindfulness Meditation and he completed an 8-day Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction training retreat with Jon Kabat Zinn and Saki Santorelli from the University of Massachusetts. While he found the course personally transformative and continues to practice mindfulness, he wanted to learn more. His quest to learn more about the interface between the mind and the body to promote healing led him to consult the wise advice of Google. The search terms mind-body medicine led Pete to the Center for Mind-Body Medicine and the professional training programs that the Center offers. It was on the CMBM website where Pete began reading about the founder, Jim Gordon, MD, and his affiliation with Saybrook University School of Mind-Body Medicine as founding Dean. Pete was intrigued by the CMBM faculty profiles and the inspiring work people affiliated with the center are doing all over the world.

Expanded Access Use of Myozyme (Alglucosidase Alfa) in Patients With Infantile-onset Pompe Disease
- Full Text View
- Tabular View
- No Study Results Posted
- Disclaimer
- How to Read a Study Record
Pompe disease (also known as glycogen storage disease Type II) is caused by a deficiency of a critical enzyme in the body called acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA). Normally, GAA is used by the body's cells to break down glycogen (a stored form of sugar) within specialized structures called lysosomes. In patients with Pompe disease, an excessive amount of glycogen accumulates and is stored in various tissues, especially heart and skeletal muscle, which prevents their normal function. The objective of this protocol is to provide enzyme replacement therapy with rhGAA on an expanded access basis, to severely affected patients with infantile-onset Pompe disease for whom there is no alternative treatment and who do not meet the clinical characteristics described in the inclusion criteria for participation in other Genzyme Corporation-sponsored study currently enrolling patients with infantile-onset Pompe disease.

In just a few days we'll have a resolution double-whammy. Not just a new year, but a new decade. Seems like a perfect time to be jotting down those resolutions (or publishing them online), right? Making resolutions is one thing…but what about keeping them? What can social psychology tell us that will help increase the odds that this time next year we'll be proud of ourselves for the changes we've made?
In a recent study Lally et al. found that it can take anywhere from 18 to 254 days for a new habit to become automatic. While 254 days of gym trips and healthier eating may seem daunting, there's small comfort in their finding that missing one day did not seem to influence the habit formation process. Weidemann et al. found that action-planning and coping-planning also affect behavior change, particularly in behaviors related to health. Additionally, developing an action plan early on and preparing mentally for the obstacles you may confront as you try to keep your goal (coping-planning, further explained here) can also help you keep your goal.
- stick with your resolution for the long haul
- don't beat yourself up too much if you miss a day
- develop a plan to help you reach your goal or keep your resolution
- mentally imagine yourself overcoming any obstacles
- and, while you're at it, tell your friends, since that seems to help too!

The process of rendering a map generally means taking raw geospatial data and making a visual map from it. Often the word applies more specifically to the production of a raster image, or a set of raster tiles, but it can refer to the production of map outputs in vector-based formats. "3D rendering" is also possible taking map data as an input. The ability to render maps in new and interesting styles, or highlighting features of special interest, is one of the most exciting aspects having open access to geodata. Developers in and around the OpenStreetMap community have created a wide variety of software for rendering OpenStreetMap data. The data can also be converted to other data formats for use with existing rendering software.
Rendering on OpenStreetMap servers
The most obvious examples of rendering OpenStreetMap data, are those found on the openstreetmap.org homepage. Click the layer picker button on the right to switch between layers showing different rendering styles. There are several layers created using Mapnik software including the default 'Standard' layer. To understand more about the infrastructure involved in rendering and serving these tiles map styles, see Component overview.
There are limitless dimensions of flexibility involved in rendering. Most rendering software supports some kind of stylesheet for controlling things like colour, line widths, text orientation, icons for points of interest, and many very subtle visual factors.
Rendering Software
The main options for conventional 2D raster rendering:
- Mapnik - Requires PostgreSQL and various C++ libraries. It is designed to be fast and is suitable for tile generation on high-end servers but it isn't particularly easy to set up.
- TileMill is a frontend solution to handle a user defined rendering of Mapnik. Uses simpler style format.
- Osmarender - XSLTs which does OSM XML to SVG transformation. tiles@home was a project which uses Osmarender to create a tile set for serving a map layer alongside Mapnik's, but Osmarender can also be a good option for doing one-off renderings. SVG format allows you to do post-processing tidy up tweaks (see other options below). It was withdrawn from the main map at osm.org on 1th March 2012.
Other renderers, including vector rendering:
- Custom python script for mapnik.
- Maperitive is local file (.osm, .osm.bz2 and GPX) desktop rendering application, with rendering rules defined in a text file. Generates BMP, PNG and SVG output. Not designed for high performance rendering or huge volumes of data, but easy to set up and flexible, and a good option for one-off rendering (e.g. a map of your city). It also has a tile generator, hillshading, elevation colouring and lots of other features. Runs on Windows, Linux, Mac. Written in C#
- Potlatch 2 - flash editor based on Halcyon library
- osmrender.pl - simple maps easily drawn with a Perl program. Uses *.osm as input.
- Mapweaver - Successor of mapgen.pl Perl rendering, OSM to SVG and with Inkscape to PNG or PDF, automatic map key. Supports street and POI lists, grids and coordinate overlays. Automatic extraction of desired place out of OSM file. Not running under Windows.
- MapSurfer.NET is a framework for map styling and publishing (rendering, caching) geospatial data to the web.
- TopoMapCreator is a Windows Desktop Application based on Mapnik. It creates automatically topographic maps from OSM, NASA and ESA data. Select a map extent (by dragging over a world map), click on the start button and wait for the GeoTIFF, ECW, GALILEO, ORUXMAPS or NAVIMAP output.
- osmCache – a JEE application to control rendering and rerendiring of tiles with mapnik
- vector-tile-ascii - ASCII renderer for OpenStreetMap vector tiles
- CartoType - is a multi-OS rendering and routing library under licence. Runs on Windows, iOS, Android, Mac OS, Unix. Written in C++.
- Halcyon - is an AS3 (ActionScript) rendering library developed by Richard Fairhurst and used within Potlatch2
- Kosmos is local file (.osm) rendering engine based on GDI/.NET (Windows), with rendering rules defined on a wiki page. Not designed for high performance rendering or huge volumes of data, but very flexible, and good option for one-off rendering. Superseded by Maperitive
- Mapsforge - free and open toolbox that enables the community to easily create new OpenStreetMap-based applications. Provided tools and APIs include solutions for map rendering, route planning and navigation, POI indexing and search, map overlays and more. Written in java, target platform seems to be Android devices.
- PHP rendering - renderer written in PHP. Not maintained.
- Phprender - updated version of the above?
- Pyrender - a collection of ideas, and some code in Python for various rendering server steps
- Cartagen - HTML5 Canvas/JavaScript-based renderer
- Kogutowicz - An extensible, multi-purpose Java based rendering engine. The project is under development. Currently not usable by end users.
- Cobra - abandoned .Net/mono rendering engine with SVG and raster output.
- Ceyx - .osm parser and MapCSS renderer under active development. MapCSS is the stylesheet language used by Halcyon to describe the look of a map and if you ever worked with HTML, you will quickly feel at home there. Ceyx needs python, python-cairo and pygtk (for pango/pangocairo).
- Maposmatic - can render maps with a grid and street index. Written in Python/Django + mapnik :)
- osmbrowser - can load large areas of OSM data and render them in vector graphics.
- MapDiff generates Animation, written in D
- Memphis (Renderer) [1] is a map-rendering application and a library for OpenStreetMap written in C using eXpat, Cairo and GLib. It's licensed under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License.
- Hardware_accelerated_real-time_rendering - using graphics card to render images in real-time, instead of displaying prerendered tiles
- Libosmscout offers simple, high-level interfaces to offline rendering and routing functionalities based on OpenStreetMap data.
- Kothic a MapCSS/0.2 python rendering engine.
- Kothic_JS a full-featured JavaScript map rendering engine using HTML5 Canvas. It was initially developed as a JavaScript port of Kothic.
- Smrender a rules-based rendering engine written in C
- Tangram ES - 2D and 3D map renderer using OpenGL ES
3D Rendering (see also 3D Development)
- OpenStreetMap 3D - OSM in 3D as a web service
- OSM2World - Java tool that creates 3D models from OSM data files
- ShugenDoMap - Multi-platform OSM realtime 3D renderer. Especially designed for mobile platforms like smart phones and tablets.
- Osm2pov - Tool for creating isometric maps from OSM data
- Kendzi3d - Plugin for JOSM, allows viewing of edited data in 3D
- osm2x3d - OSM 3D converter using native webgl rendering (x3dom js library)

East Texas Homeschooling
A Texas news station included coverage of some east Texan homeschoolers.
Texas leads nation in homeschooling | KETK
It's hard to say what was meant by Texas leading the nation in homeschooling. It's likely the intent and "leading" piece of homeschooling for Texas are the increasing numbers of homeschoolers. Even as it would be wonderfully difficult to determine the exact number of Texan homeschoolers since there are no reporting or registration requirements. Little or no private school accountability to the government agencies is a leading chapter in my book of Good Things About Homeschooling. Then, the sole focus can be turned to what works best for each family.
Another interesting piece in the article concerned take-action homeschool dad, Bill Beggs. If you build it, they will come.
When his boys grew out of pee wee athletics, he started the Tyler HEAT, a Christian sports program specifically designed for homeschooled East Texans.
"It gives them the opportunity to participate in a competitive team sport where they get the experience of working with someone," Beggs said.
It's a nice article that ends with this element of homeschool truth.
Which brings us to one misconception you might say these families want to set straight.
"A lot of people think that homeschoolers are lazy, and we just stay home in our pajamas all day or we don't have friends," said Katy Hall.
"My kids … I have a hard time staying home," Kelly Hall said.
