Saint Lucia
St Lucia is an enchanting island centrally located in the Windward Island chain in the Eastern Caribbean Sea. Part of the Lesser Antilles, this tropical destination is positioned between Martinique and St. Vincent.
Possessing some of the finest natural harbours in the Caribbean, St Lucia has a tropical year-round climate paired with cooling trade winds. The island has dramatic contrasting features, ranging from glorious white sand beaches to lush, mountain rainforest terrains. There are many developments in St Lucia, from the prestigious Cap Estate in the north of the island down to the east and west coast. However, between the magnificent Val des Pitons, part of only 180 natural UNESCO World Heritage Sites worldwide; there is just one – The Residences at Sugar Beach.
Just 238 square miles in size, St Lucia is the most stunning destination in the Caribbean. Situated on the south west coast, The Residences at Sugar Beach afford spectacular sunset views.
The St Lucian Government is currently planning to upgrade Hewanorra International Airport on the south coast by adding a new terminal with modern facilities to accommodate more air traffic to the island. St Lucia also boasts Rodney Bay marina in the north of the island, which has undergone a multi-million dollar renovation. As one of the Caribbean's leading centres for yachting, Rodney Bay offers 248 slips and a new mega yacht pier featuring 32 berths with support facilities for mega yachts of up to 250 feet in length.

Antique Centrolinead or Linead tool
Craig Elliott
I recently purchased an antique drawing tool from 1890 known as a Cenrtolinead, or Linead from an estate sale. These tools are a tremendous aid in drawing perspective. I have known about these tools for years, and could really have used one for all my perspective work at Disney for the 10 years or so of work I have done for them.
This tool did not come with any instructions, so all I had to go on were catalogs from the early 1900's showing these for sale. They operate using 2 pins and are set to a "Y" shape and equal angles. the photos explain:
My conclusion is that this tool is far easier to use than even a ruler with the VP on your board. it is very steady and quick to use. The only drawback is that the tool must be flipped around , one blade moved and new pins inserted to draw the second VP if they are both off the board. This is a somewhat unlikely situation, but it did happen on the larger building facade sketch. the best setup would be to have 2 of these or even 3 for a 3 point perspective drawing. they would make quick work of a complicated drawing like that.
I had a talk with Jim Gurney of Dinotopia fame yesterday to see what he knew about these. He said he had heard of them, and thought of making one someday. Jim will post some of this info on his popular blog to see if we can find someone with the old instruction booklet from one of the original manufacturers. We'll see what happens!
Jim brought up an interesting question in an email to me today- what do you do if you don't want holes in your drawing board? I always used a paper clip with one end bent up or an upside down flat-headed thumbtack taped to the board or paper. this is good for balancing a ruler on for perspective points on the board or for this operation. You could also use a sheet of metal to draw on, even with a Borco cover, and Neodymium magnets about 1/2 cube size for the pins. they are so strong they won't shift...

Sanctuary Cove Boat Show, innovative new design, Ron Holland and moreHello to you all out there (aliens and other space creatures, too, if you're on line) and unless you've been hiding under a rock you'll be well aware where to find the Powerboat-World team (and the mob from Sail-World and Marine Business-World) over the nest few days.
If you're at the Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show, you're right on the money; you'll see our marquee (you will not be able to miss it!) so come aboard and say g'day.
Displays at previous Sanctuary Cove International Boat Shows have been spectacular. - Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show Mark Burgin
Sadly, I just learned this morning that the Presidential Suite in the Hyatt Regency has not been put aside in my name as my personal HQ.
Plenty of news happening and as usual we deliver it from all parts of the world straight to you, our beloved readers.
We recently enjoyed the company of the rather distinguished Ron Holland, the acknowledged master of superyacht design; Ron is in town for the boat show and we caught up with him when Commodore Rob Mundle played host last week at the Southport Yacht Club for the annual Marine Industry Luncheon.
Ron certainly had those in attendance on side when he lavished praise on the Queensland Gold Coast as a future superyacht destination.
While you're browsing our interest-packed site, take you hat off to Trevor Payne, a man who definitely thinks outside the square.

The requirements for filing a Certificate of Foreign Birth are the same as for other adoptions. Oregon law provides for the issuance of a Certificate of Foreign Birth if a child born outside the United States to parents who are not U.S. citizens is adopted through an Oregon Court. A child born in Canada to parents who are not U.S. citizens will have a new birth certificate created by the Province where the birth occurred. If a Certificate of Foreign Birth has already been filed in another state and the child is re-adopted by a second set of adoptive parents, the documents should be forwarded to the state where the first Certificate of Foreign Birth record was filed.
If a child is born abroad to at least one parent who is a U.S. citizen, the birth certificate is usually registered through the U.S. Department of State at the time of birth. If a person born abroad is not registered through the U.S. Department of State before the age of 18, then proof of citizenship needs to be obtained from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security/Immigration and Naturalization office.
When a court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Oregon approves an adoption for a Foreign Born child, the Oregon Vital Records office prepares a new birth record and the original birth record and the adoption documents are placed in a sealed file. Vital record sealed files can only be opened through a court order from an Oregon Court even when the birth parents are known to the adoptee or the adoptive parents.
To create a new birth record and issue a certificate after a court has approved and filed the adoption decree, we need the following:
An original certified copy of an Adoption Report form showing the original seal and signature of the court official certifying the document. If an Adoption Report is not available, we must have an original certified copy of the Adoption Decree and an adoption fact sheet. The fact sheet provides information about the adoptive parents for the new birth record that may is missing in the adoption decree.
A $50 fee. This fee includes an amendment fee of $30 and a $20 fee for a certified copy of the new birth record.
A completed birth record order form The order form should list the child's new adoptive name and adoptive parents' names. The Vital Records mailing address and payee information are available on this form.
For children born outside the United States except Canada:
Becki Buskirk, firstname.lastname@example.com
When you call or email, please provide:
When preparing an Adoption Report for submittal to a court in Oregon, please use Form 45-24. (Updated 01/2015)
Adoption Information Sheet: If you are submitting an original certified copy of a Adoption Judgment/Decree, please complete the Adoption Information Sheet Form 45-20 and submit with the court document.

I look like have shrapnel wounds all over my body. And no, I haven't served a tour in Iraq or Afghanistan. I was an avid tanner for many years. And I'm only 30.
Growing up in the sunny South, I have always loved tanning outdoors—laying out at the pool, beach, or even my backyard and slathering myself with oil with little or no SPF. I was quite young when I visited a tanning salon for the first time—only 15, actually, because I remember my friend's mom had to drive us there and sign for us. Looking back at my first visit, I remember being scared of the bed—it too closely resembled a coffin and it made me claustrophobic.
That didn't last long.
By the time I was 16, I was working at one of the salons—tanning for free and soaking up all the rays I wanted, sometimes on a daily basis. The day of my high school prom I thought nothing of lying there nearly twice the recommended time. Like everyone else who tans, I naturally enjoyed the glow that made me look as if I'd just returned from a Hawaiian vacation. I thought I looked better tan than "pale," and I thought it made me look thinner, etc. It was almost like a makeup shield; I felt as if I needed to be tan to be at all attractive.
Despite my parents' pleas not to, I tanned anyway. Nobody could tell me what to do, and there was technically nothing they could do, because at that time you didn't have to have a parent sign for you if you were over 16 years of age. My dad used to leave skin cancer information on my bed for me to find when I got home from tanning, and I distinctly remember warnings from my mom: "I know you don't care now, but one day you will. You'll regret it."
I never worried about skin cancer, though, because I figured that if you had it, they just pluck it off, right? Wrong. Melanoma spreads scarily fast—often so that it hits lymph nodes—and when it does, it's full-blown cancer that has spread throughout your entire body.
The Internet is rife with stories of young people in their twenties and thirties and their experiences with skin cancer. Glenna Kohl's story was one that hit me hard (she lost her battle with skin cancer at the age of 26), and I feel called to share my mistakes and my regret.
If you use a tanning bed, please stop. If you're outdoors, use sun protection. Visit a dermatologist regularly. If you have kids who tan, don't let them. If you're a teen like I was and don't care or don't think it will harm you: Trust me. You will end up caring. And it can kill you. It's tortuous to await a doctor's phone call (in your twenties and early thirties) to see if you have cancer for something you could have prevented—I know. I'm actually incredibly grateful for the numerous ugly scars on my body, because each one of those scars represents a worrisome/cancer-like mole that was benign.
Our bodies—our lives—are a gift from God. Treasure it. Protect it. It's never too late to start!

In our culture, it seems you just don't live with your relatives unless there's no other option, and you have to look long and hard to find another option before you get a pass. So why has our family embraced such an unfashionable lifestyle? What do I get out of selling my house and giving up my independence to live with my kids? Good question! A BIG part of the answer has to do with Katie, but I'll save that for another post.
Three Generations
I raised my girls as a single mom from the time they were two and four until they were in junior high. At that time my mom, "Ghi," moved in with us. Although her health was failing, we were able to enjoy the richness of having three generations under one roof for several years before she died. Ghi was a warm, delightful, lovable woman and we relished having all that "together time" with her in her sunset years. My girls adored her. Some of our favorite stories come from the funny things she did when living with us. We laugh till we cry (or cross our legs if you know what I mean!!!) That blending of three generations sparked the vision for what we are doing today. The memories we have from Merrill Drive give us the confidence to stick with the path we've chosen.
Home Again
I grew up on two acres on the (then) outskirts of Haltom City. We had horses growing up and enjoyed a sort of quasi-rural life. Heather loves the story about the year I got sick with pneumonia . I missed my shetland pony, Ginger, so much my mom actually brought him into the house to visit me! Although that would have been a good enough story on it's own, it really snowballed when the horse decided he liked being in the house It wasn't long before he learned how to push on the poorly aligned French doors until they opened and he just walked in like he owned the place. We weren't home the first time Ginger decided to tour the house alone. But when we returned we were shocked to find the peanut butter jar on the kitchen floor, opened, along with a broken jar of jelly topped with what was left of a loaf of bread. Apparently Ginger found his "peanut butter and jelly sandwich" pleasing to his palate because we found remnants throughout the house including in my bed, where we joked he must have napped following his satisfying meal. Sounds right out of Goldilocks, doesn't it!?! His illegal entrance became such a problem eventually we had to add locks to the door to keep him out.
I never adapted well to the confinement of a "city block." I yearn to return a small chunk of land where we can grow organic fruits and veggies, gather eggs from the henhouse, and drink fresh milk from our own goats. I want to walk my property – and I want it to take more than three minutes! Only by combining resources with Daniel and Heather could any of us afford to purchase a little piece of "heaven on earth." Only together can we realize our dream. We believe it is God-breathed and will have to be God-delivered, because we are totally incapable of getting this done on our own!
Sharing the Load
Here's another benefit:
What mother with young children is not exhausted? Come on, name one! As a single parent, I experienced the exhaustion of trying to "do it all" and was frequently overwhelmed by carrying the parenting torch solo. Although I am deeply comforted by the fact that both of my daughters are married to men that are good father and good providers, it's still a BIG JOB. Two parents are definitely better than one. But let's be honest, it can be overwhelming.
One of my motivations to join the Dessinger family was to help share the workload. Heather cooks, I clean up the kitchen. I watch Katie on Saturday or Sunday afternoon (sometimes both) so Daniel and Heather have time to connect. Although this may not seem like a benefit for me, it really is.
I have the joy of knowing that my contribution makes a difference.
That's my payoff, and it's enough.

i love this about your family! makes me really wish my mom lived closer. oh and that's a beautiful picture of you and katie!
.-= Joanna Moore´s last blog ..Thankful Thursday =-.
Thanks, Joanna. I wish you're mom lived closer too. It is such a joy to be When I bump up against something that doesn't seem Practical (and I am sooooo practica), sometimes I just say to God "I don't see any way you could accomplish this, but I'm just letting you know what I'd like. And if there's any way you could bring it about, I'd really appreciate it! And I leave it at that.
For some reason part of my reply to you, Joanna, was eliminated so here's the rest of it. It is such a joy to have family close by. If your mom would like to be closer, you might want to talk to God about this. And then the next sentence begins "when I bump….
I loved reading this and I love you. I can't begin to tell you how fondly Richard and I talk of you and it always ends with "I wish we had a Gigi".
Oooooh, you are so sweet! I think you and Richard are so very special myself. And if I could just clone myself you'd be the first person I'd give "myself" to…..because I'd love to be a part of your family! Instead, when we get our new place, we expect to be able to spend more time with friends like you….and at least, for a few hours, I'll be your very own "Gigi." How's that?
Gigi's are fantastic! (my mom is called Gigi too) AND she lives with us as well as Poppy and Uncle Preston – and soon to be Aunt, Uncle and Cousins! So every time you start to think you're crazy for living all under one roof, think of us. We make your crazy look sane! I'm sure you know, but as a mom to little ones it seriously is SUCH a blessing to have the extra hands around, but more so to know that my mother is pouring wisdom, love and affirmation into my daughter on a daily basis. They have a routine where my daughter wakes up and immediately goes downstairs to where my mom is inevitably having her quiet time and they sit and talk and my mom makes her breakfast. This gives me an extra hour or so of sleep since my son wakes up later and also gives them great time together. I am so happy for Katie's sake that you are in her life on a daily basis. She will be enriched because of it. I truly feel that family was created to be ACTIVELY involved and a part of each other's lives. Not on the fringe. Not everyone can or wants to live together and I totally understand that, but I'm telling you, when everyone is in full agreement, the benefits FAR outweigh the challenges. All that to say, I applaud you guys!
.-= Des´s last blog ..Out of It =-.
I didn't realize that Ginger made her own peanut butter and jelly sandwich. That is so funny! I admire you for taking such good care of your mom as well as your girls. I'm trying to enjoy the time I have left caring for Grandma. I feel really inadequate most of the time (and want to pull my hair out on a daily basis), but I know God is teaching me a lot, too.
Destiny, so well said! I sense that God is up to something with this intergenerational living and we may be seeing the beginning of more to come. And you're right, compared to you guys we don't look so far "out there!" Forerunners indeed! So I double applaud you! I've always loved your family and the warmth and embracing of others that characterize you. It will be fun following each others journey.
From one Gigi to another, I totally understand where you're coming from. What better way to invest in the next generation than by living with your grandchildren? It is a gift, and I'm grateful! Life is such a journey!
Oh, I so agree Jerri! Katie and Conner (my grandbabies) are my delight. Though I don't get to see Conner very often because Karen lives in Abilene, it is always a special time when they are in town and I get to babysit. Being with Katie on a daily basis is so much fun. Often, she will stick her head in my room in the morning when I'm spending time in prayer, look at me as I sit up in the bed reading, and ask me "are you awake?" Does she think I sleep like that!

PORT BARRE, La. — Five-year-old Karen Stoute died on Monday morning as a result of injuries she sustained during a school bus crash that occurred here last Friday. She was pronounced dead at Lafayette General Medical Center. A 15-year-old student who was injured in the accident remains in critical condition at a local hospital. State Police Troopers also learned that an 8-year-old child originally listed in critical condition was released from the hospital with moderate injuries. The crash on Friday occurred in the westbound lane of a highway and involved an 18-wheeler and a St. Landry Parish school bus.According to investigating troopers, the school bus, driven by 67-year-old Gilfred Savoy, was stopped in the westbound right lane of the highway. Savoy was actively picking up children and had the red lights and stop signs activated on the bus. After the students finished boarding the bus, Savoy began to slowly proceed forward with all of the bus' warning devices still activated. As Savoy was beginning his movement, the 18-wheeler, driven by 52-year-old David Cox, struck the bus from behind. Both drivers sustained minor injuries. There were 21 children on the bus at the time of the crash. In addition to the three aforementioned students, all of the other children, ranging in ages from 5 to 17 years old, sustained minor to moderate injuries and were transported to local hospitals. Routine toxicology samples were obtained from both drivers. The results of the samples are pending at the Louisiana State Police Crime Lab. The crash remains under investigation. Charges are pending the outcome of the investigation.

How fast was the truck traveling. Was the driver of the truck paying attention. We have heard of this type of thing happening to many times. From reading the article I see nothing the bus driver did wrong. He did everything he was suppose to. Drivers do not turn their lights off as soon as the last student is on the bus, they are suppose to check mirrors and as they are pulling away and checking mirrors turn their lights off. This is not a blame game, the safety for the passengers on the bus is always priority. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family of the little girl and I wish a speedy recovery for all other injured parties.
Lights not being off before pulling away really has nothing to do with the truck hitting the bus in the rear. Perhaps the bus driver did see the truck and that's why he moved without shutting them off. He may very well have saved move lives by moving away from the impact. We can speculate all day, that fact is it happened and a little girl lost her life and other children and people were injured. My thoughts and prayers are with the families of all involved and the transportation department as well.
Why did the school bus driver not shut off his S.O.S. lights before he started moving his bus? And if he checked all of his zones for late comers and or trafic, didn't he see the truck approching?

Why A Telework Recovery Strategy Isn't A Continuity Solution
Telework is getting more popular every year — based on current trends, with no growth acceleration, regular telecommuters will total 4.9 million by 2016, a 69 percent increase from the current level but well below other forecasts.[1] In fact, the US government's Telework Enhancement Act of 2010 mandates that every department head identifies who is eligible, partially for emergency readiness, but also to reduce energy use and increase employee retention.
Teleworking has a few basic requirements:
- A secure place to work
- A secure computing platform
- Sufficient and secure data bandwidth
- Access to appropriate voice services
- Power
- No regulatory requirements for employee monitoring
Stockbrokers generally cannot telework due to monitoring regulations. Similarly, call center employees may need special voice equipment, although Voice over IP (VoIP) soft phones should work with many call center applications.
As more and more companies implement telework as a workplace recovery strategy, it's worth considering if the planners truly thought through all the implications of their decision. When an incident occurs, it is imperative that critical employees get back to work no matter why they cannot be in the office. And in most cases, telework will not meet this key objective.
As every business continuity practitioner knows, disasters come in three major sizes; single site, localized, and regional. Single site disasters affect one company or one building, localized disasters may affect one or a handful of city blocks, and regional disasters impact a much larger area. Examples can range from something as minor as a fire in a worksite's computer room to catastrophic events like 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina or a worldwide pandemic.
In the case of a single site-disaster -- as long as the computing infrastructure is running in the data center or a hot site -- telework might be a reasonable option. Of course, the remote access infrastructure needs to be up as well, along with Internet access through the contracted network provider.
In the case of a localized or regional disaster, telework could be problematic for several reasons. Unlike a traditional hard-wired phone line, there are no government uptime regulations around Internet service providers or local cable and DSL providers. When the power goes out, the landline is required to work for a minimum of 48 hours, but the same isn't true for cellular, VoIP and data connections -- assuming that power is on in order to charge a cellular device or keep a router powered up.
In a single-site disaster or a pandemic, voice and data connections most likely will be up and employees' homes or local coffee shops will have power. But with most of the city also stuck at home, bandwidth could be constrained by large numbers of other people also teleworking or something as innocuous as playing games on their home computers.
Telework might be acceptable for lower priority job functions that can be jettisoned when a larger incident occurs, but for employees that support mission critical and revenue-producing business processes, more reliable options are needed.
Commercial workplace recovery solutions may seem more expensive than outfitting employees to work from home, but unless an organization has done a business impact analysis, it cannot be certain that the cost isn't more than offset by the potential losses if business operations come to a halt.

July 29th, 2012 (F1plus / Jack Leslie).- With Formula 1 always on the look out to reach new markets, new countries and new tracks, Bernie Ecclestone has put a cap on that. With circuit's being dropped, alternating and being confirmed, 2013 looks as good as ever.
"Formula 1 is set to stay at the 20 race mark for the 2013 season, according to commercial boss Bernie Ecclestone.
There will be a few circuits leaving the calendar for the 2013 season, with a new addition replacing it.
Bernie Ecclestone confirmed on the Saturday of the Hungarian Grand Prix that F1 will stick with 20 races per season. There had been increased speculation that the calendar would last longer and have more races in it, with Bernie keen to have races in new locations, but those rumours have been shut down.
Specific dates were not confirmed, but it is expected that the 2013 campaign will begin on the 17th March with the Australian GP, and end in Brazil. There were reports that the US GP in Austin could be moved to the penultimate or final race of the season, but that case has also been closed.
Ecclestone also revealed officially that the Valencia street circuit is to be dropped, an agreement that it will now share the Spanish GP with the Barcelona track, alternating each year.
The New Jersey GP held in the United States has also been officially pencilled in, despite Bernie having concern over the race and its future.
He said "It's 20 races, All the same more or less." He was asked about the New Jersey GP, whether it would be on the calendar, which he replied by saying "It is supposed to be."
He then commented on the German GP crisis, saying "We are talking to them, so will see," he said. "We need to keep the German race – so we have to do the best we can. We will try and save it – but I don't think the property is for sale. When asked what would happen if the Nurburgring's difficulties meant the 2013 race could not go ahead, Ecclestone said: "We will be at Hockenheim."

It's late February, and that's when your thoughts probably turn to ...
Cleaning out your closets. Or upgrading your spring wardrobe. Or updating your kitchen appliances. Or replacing the end tables and coffee tables with something else.
It's a good and worthwhile excercise, for sure. You'll feel better when it's done.
But you'll also feel better when you donate your gently used clothes and household goods to Goodwill in the annual "March to Goodwill" Do It! Community Challenge.
Gannett Wisconsin Media organizations in Appleton/Fox Cities, Oshkosh and Green Bay sponsor the month-long campaign to build awareness of the great work of Goodwill Industries of North Central Wisconsin, and to urge you to donate in support of that cause.
You'll find a large, white plastic bag inserted into next Sunday's newspaper, placed there for you to fill and to take to the nearest Goodwill donation drop-off site. Proceeds from the sale of your donations support the 25 programs and services Goodwill provides to our neighbors who need financial counseling or job skills training,
Here's a sampling of the 2013 impact of Goodwill NCW:
? More than 67,000 people were served across the organization's 35-county footprint.
? The Good Neighbor program provided more than 40,000 people with free merchandise in their time of need.
? Goodwill's Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program helped more than 2,600 people, setting a record.
? Construction began on the 25th retail outlet, scheduled to open in Neenah next month.
? Placed 16 more Goodwill donation bins throughout the Fox Cities, Green Bay and Oshkosh markets.
? A Goodwill outlet store opened at the Shiner Center in Menasha, which was also remodeled.
? Played a key role in the development of the Fox Valley's "Include" movement that fosters understanding and tolerance of the LGBT community.
Goodwill is aptly named. Through its services that help thousands improve their lives, its employment practices that help build independent lives and skills for the future, and its support of programs as varied as the Miracle League, Harmony Cafe, Restorative Justice and Community Garden Partnerships, the organization creates real goodwill between those it helps and those who serve.
We hope you'll play a role - and make a well-timed donation to "March to Goodwill." Look for the bag in next Sunday's newspaper, and please make sure you use it as intended.
We're shooting to collect 1,000 more bags than last year's 4,400 total in the Fox Valley.
The items you give will have a lasting impact in the lives of many others.
It's your Goodwill.

|A dual ELP-tagged split intein system for non-chromatographic recombinant protein purification.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 23212673 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|Self-cleaving elastin-like protein (ELP) tags provide a very promising tool for recombinant protein purification. With this method, the target protein is purified by simple ELP-mediated precipitation steps, followed by self-cleavage and removal of the ELP tag. Unfortunately, however, inteins usually experience some level of pre-cleavage during protein expression, which can significantly decrease final yields. In this study, we solve this problem by splitting the intein into two ELP-tagged segments. Each segment is incapable of pre-cleavage alone, but the assembled segments release the target protein rapidly when assembled in vitro. The result is the very tight control of the tag cleaving reaction, combined with the simplicity of the ELP purification method. Using this system, we successfully purified four different sizes of target proteins with final yields comparable to or higher than our original contiguous intein-ELP system. Further, we demonstrate a streamlined split intein method, where cells expressing the tagged intein segments are combined prior to cell lysis, allowing the segments to be co-purified in a single reaction mixture.

Santa Fe Trail Elementary, a pre-kindergarten through fifth grade school, is located in the central part of Independence, Missouri, and was named for its historic location on the Santa Fe Trail. The 42,870 square foot school was constructed in 1980 to replace the former Alton and Noland schools. The Santa Fe Trail attendance area is bordered by commercial streets on the east and west, Chrysler Avenue and Noland Road respectively. The northern and southern boundaries, Truman Road and 31st Street, are residential neighborhoods. Busy 23rd Street and railroad tracks intersect and divide the Santa Fe Trail attendance area. Due to the high traffic on this thoroughfare, the vast majority of students are bus riders. Families from zip codes 64055, 64050 and some from 64052 make up the student population. Our Santa Fe Trail mascot is the Trailblazer and our school colors are blue and gold. Santa Fe Trail, a Title I school, is a true neighborhood school. Our programs continue to focus on student and family success. We are a "œFight Free" school and have a strong character education program. On average, approximately 200-300 family members attend monthly school and family night programs. We are proud that our Missouri Assessment Program (MAP) scores have consistently improved each year. This is a result of dedicated faculty and staff who consistently analyze our teaching methods and make necessary changes to improve student performance.
Santa Fe Trail will serve as a center linking student learning, family involvement and community support. By working together, we will create an environment which allows students to become successful contributors in society.

Where access is denied motorists still can see Riverland Avenue Bridge. For decades it has spanned the Tuscarawas River in utilitarian style — its low steel trusses looking strong and secure. But its life will not last much longer. Looks can be deceiving, where strength is concerned.
"ROAD CLOSED" warn two signs on Riverland Avenue SW at Rockhill Avenue.
Where access is denied motorists still can see Riverland Avenue Bridge. For decades it has spanned the Tuscarawas River in utilitarian style — its low steel trusses looking strong and secure.
But its life will not last much longer. Looks can be deceiving, where strength is concerned.
A project is underway to replace the bridge and straighten the road. Work should be completed before the end of the year.
"It's in really bad shape, especially the foundation," said Scott Basinger, bridge engineer for the Stark County Engineer's office. "And if you come off the southern end, there's a big vertical curve, a pretty severe drop. So we'll get rid of that in addition to straightening the road."
This is an interesting bridge — scenic enough to be pictured above the compass point on the Stark County map. The surface of the Tuscarawas River reflects the structure's late-1800s style.
"It's from the era of the 1870s," Basinger estimated.
Records show that the south foundation and one truss were replaced in 1913. In 1957, all of the steel trusses were replaced, said Basinger. But age does not necessarily make the span unique.
"There are a number of bridges like it in Ohio," said Basinger. "It's not too historical."
Paint peels on some of the bridge's surface. Graffiti has been sprayed in other spots. The guardrail between the bridge and road edge has deteriorated and the surface of Riverland Avenue as it crosses the bridge is patched. The foundations that support the structure, with the water of the Tuscarawas flowing in ripples around them, is of questionable reliability.
The bridge's grandness, really, is in the knowledge that the structure has done its job for so many decades.
Lois Speicher grew up in a nearby home that her parents constructed from a small schoolhouse. Speicher, who now lives with her husband in that house, can recall flooding of the Tuscarawas River. The water rose enough to cause residents to paddle boats in order to leave homes near Riverland Avenue Bridge. But she can't remember the bridge itself being impassable.
Now Speicher, who crossed the bridge most of the times she had traveled to nearby Navarre through the years, will need to turn her car toward Rockhill Avenue for a few months.
Work already has begun to replace the bridge. Ohio Edison workers spent days this week relocating utility poles. New steel girders are piled near the bridge. Trees surrounding the structure were trimmed to allow room for work on both the old and new spans.
"The south abutment will be pretty much in the same spot and the bridge will veer off northwest," said Basinger.
Page 2 of 2 - What was old will be new again in about nine months. This bridge, too, will have a sturdy kind of beauty. And it will be ready to span decades of its own.

Surfing Panama, Panama Surf Charters Images
The Surf
If someone put up a slide show of the right and left reefs on this side of Panama and said it was the Mentawai, all but the most discerning eye would buy it: Hollow, sometimes very hollow right and left reefs, winding into coves and bays with palm trees as a backdrop. Looks like Indo, but when you're there, it's a whole different feel.
And a lot closer to home! This part of Panama is 1,000 miles from Florida and about 2,500 miles from southern California. Chose Bocas del Toro over the Maldives or Mentawai and you'll save yourself maybe two to three days of travel that it takes to get to the other side of the world and back.
The three main islands and many fringe islands are host to more then a dozen breaks. The nice mix of reefs and beach breaks of various intensity make this a good destination for surfers of every skill level from beginner to expert. Come down and experience the mix for yourself.

The Bucyrus Redmen have proven they can win different styles of games.
Bucyrus banged out 21 hits - seven for extra bases - and scored nine runs in the first inning on the way to a 20-9, five-inning, North Central Conference Black Division victory over the Wynford Royals.

Mary Thick's amazing 100 years revealed as she celebrates milestone birthday
Posted: February 22, 2014|
AS Grace Mary Thick enters her 100th year, she's still proving she's every bit the comic that she has always been.
The centenarian recently celebrated the milestone birthday with family and friends at the Deanwood Lodge Care Home, in Maisemore.
But her daughter Faith Cox has revealed the wonderfully rich tapestry of her mum's life so far.
Mary, as she is better known as, started her life in Ashton Keynes, in Wiltshire, as Grace Mary Taylor but it wasn't long before she moved to Rodmarton as a little girl along with her five sisters and four brothers.
There she took up a job in service, before moving to London to work in a house, then continuing her career at Postlip Hall in Winchcombe.
It was there that she met her first husband Horace Hughes. He had been working in the greengrocers which she often visited. Together they moved to Cheltenham when they were married and they had six children - Dave, Anthony, Cedric, Adrian, Phillip and Faith. Adrian died aged 15 and Anthony died aged 48.
After her divorce from Horace, Mary met her second husband George at a dance and they were married for 16 years until his death.
Her daughter Faith, from Corse, said: "Mum was a wonderful gardener. Her father was a head gardener and she knew all of her Latin names for all of the plants. I remember her telling me off because I couldn't remember them all.
"She used to knit all of our cardigans and jumpers. She was in the era where everything was made.
"She was also a brilliant cook. As a girl I remember the cakes, it was always the cakes. Her butterfly cakes were wonderful.
"Mum also used to make teddy bears and rag dolls from scrap materials.
"Above all she is a comic and she has kept her sense of humour to this day."
As a girl Mary did not want to be known as Grace Mary Taylor because the initials reminded her of Great Midland Trains but as a joke harking back to her early years, her daughter arranged for a special £100 cake - £1 for every year - from the St George's Bakery, in Corse, which featured a steam train and the initials 'GMT'.
"It was fantastic," said Faith. "The party we had was wonderful. A piper from the village, Paul Collins, did Amazing Grace and mum sang along. She was waving her feet and her arms.
"We had so much cake that we gave the other residents a piece.
"Mum had a fantastic day."

Young people to benefit from help to find new jobs
Posted: May 15, 2014|
Managers at a snack food factory are to help unemployed people get a job.
Senior HR executives at KP Foods in Ashby are to assist youngsters to improve their CV and interview techniques.
Participants will have the chance to speak to people in a variety of roles at KP, to attend a health and safety course and to tour the Smisby Road factory.
The initiative is part of the Feeding Britain's Future programme, a scheme run by the food and grocery industry aimed at improving the skills of youngsters.
KP will hold the sessions at the Ashby snack factory, which makes Hula Hoops, in September.
Dave Wilkinson, KP training coordinator, said: "Feeding Britain's Future is a great initiative, which KP Ashby is proud to be part of. All KP's sites made a great effort to support the initiative last year, helping many young people that are currently unemployed to get lots of useful advice and skills to hopefully help get them into employment as soon as possible.
"More than 70 young unemployed people got a chance to visit KP Snacks sites as part of Skills for Work Month in 2013."

Skyline volleyball team ousts Issaquah in KingCo tournament
November 2, 2011
By Bob Taylor
NEW — 10:15 a.m. Nov. 2, 2011
The Skyline High School volleyball team stayed alive in the KingCo Conference 4A Tournament on Tuesday when the Spartans eliminated rival Issaquah 3-1 at Newport High School.
Skyline won the first set 25-22 but Issaquah bounced back to win the second game 25-21. The Spartans took the next two games 25-15 and 25-15 to win the match.
The Spartans were led by Maddie Magee, who had 11 kills and 10 digs, and Madison Stoa, who had six kills and 39 assists. Kennedy Stoa and Emily Harris each had 13 digs for the Spartans.
Sam Rogers led Issaquah with 11 kills, three blocks, 10 digs and three aces. Mckenzie Bostic contributed 35 assists and five aces, and Lindsey Ferguson added 10 digs and three aces.
Skyline, 12-4 overall, plays Roosevelt at 3 p.m. Thursday in a loser-out match at Bothell. If the Spartans win, they will meet either Garfield or Bothell at 4:30 p.m. in a match for KingCo's No. 3 berth. The KingCo No. 3 team hosts the Western Conference No. 3 team Saturday in a match for a berth into next week's state tournament.
Issaquah, which had a rebuilding season after graduating most of the 2010 team that finished second in the state tournament, ended the season at 3-12.
In other tournament action, Garfield ousted Eastlake 25-19, 25-23, 25-23. Newport, the regular-season KingCo champion, advanced to the tournament title game with a 26-24, 25-16, 25-20 victory against Bothell. Woodinville also advanced to the title game with a hard fought 3-2 victory against Roosevelt. Woodinville won 20-25, 28-26, 23-25, 25-18, 15-12.
Newport and Woodinville, who both advance to the state tournament, meet at 7 p.m. Thursday in the tournament championship game at Bothell.

AA Cars works closely with thousands of UK used vehicle dealers to bring you one of the largest selections of Citroen C8 vehicles on the market. You can also browse Citroen dealers to find a second hand vehicle close to you today. All used Citroen C8 on the AA Cars website come with free 12 months breakdown cover.
Expert Opinion
The C8 is one of the largest offerings in the Citroen range, and adds to the French manufacturer's extensive collection of sizeable family vehicles. Designed along with a number of European manufacturers (including Peugeot, Fiat and Lancia), the C8 is both luxurious and practical, featuring seven comfortable seats, an impressive amount of standard equipment and smooth and refined HDI engines. Electrically operated sliding doors make entry and exit into the expansive cabin a doddle - up to 2948 litres is available with all folding and seat-manoeuvring done - while on the road it is at its best when cruising. A lack of nimble ability limits its city driving, but its beefier engines (the 2.2 litre HDI in particular), gives it calm power on the motorway. The C8 has since been discontinued in favour of Citroen's larger crossover options, but it remains one of the most spacious, family-friendly MPVs around.

Is there anyway of modifying it permanetly so everytime I print to PDF, these are set to values that I have chosen. If not, is there a way to automate the task of modifying specific tags on a whole bunch of files/folders at once?
