Hi.. I am 62 years old and I met my dad only when I was 19. I was a product of WW2, when my dad was ,at 17, sent over to the Philippines to fight the war. Anyway, re: your question, why don't you go to www.ancestry.com or www.my family.com or leave a message there. That was where I found dozens of first and second cousins and then in 2001, my half-sis(who is all-American) found me. I also found the only surviving sis of my dad,thru the white pages..Iam sharing my story with you because I believe if you're really serious about looking for your roots, you will find them. The internet has made the world a little smaller. See, I had to be 62 before I got to finally got to the USA and meet my half-brother, who now has leukemia. Don't give up. Just keep at it. Good luck and may God bless your search.

Sure- a friend of mine taught at the American School in GDL for seven years and loved it!   Check the internet for "American School"...I'm sure it must be listed.

I took a semester abroad at the AUC through Georgetown.\n\nI had friends who went to the AUB, but I know no one who went to the AUD.\n\nMy AUC experience was a realy good one. I got to see things from many different angles during that semester more than 10 years ago!\n\nI'ld say AUC. But you gotta be ready for Egyptian heat! if it's a summer course.\n\nGood luck

Question is, do they have an alternative? And then, will they have another chance?\n\nI think is a second best where the best should be to develop before being swallowed by the CSME. Anyway Trinidad and Jamaica have the advantage of the language against Spanish speaking countries.

Cooldude,\nThis is an INTERNATIONAL site with people from all over the English speaking world participating.  S. St. seems to be to mean "Social Studies" which in the USA encompasses history, government, and geography.  In order for you to receive international help, you need to tell us what you have been studying all year!  You also need to tell us what country you live in!\n\nI'd love to help, since I used to teach history and geography in the USA.  But I need more information.

Thanks for sharing those words.\n\nIn addition to looking in the National Archives in D.C., the Smithsonian Field recordings series of the 1920s and 30s should have more plantation songs on them. \n\nLooking in the Caribbean for more songs and sources would also be wise as the music evolved there as well as on the mainland. Early mento and reggae owe a lot to these songs.\n\nIts a fascinating subject as the songs, the stylings and the instruments are all according to the experience and availability of instruments so the results are always different and interesting. The geographic range of this music and its influence is immense, extending from the Caribbean to Central and Eastern North America. Good luck on your search.

CUSO - Canadian University Service Overseas.\nhttp://www.cuso.org/index.php\n\nHowever - an unpleasant truth; The Peace Corps (USA), CUSO (Canada), VSO (UK) and Kiwi Volunteers (NZ) all get lots and lots of inquiries from young people with good intentions and no particular skill. It takes the volunteer organizations a certain amount of time, energy and money to teach their volunteers the language, customs and history of their host country, then fly them over there. It takes a certain amount of time, energy and money to keep the volunteers there. If all they wanted were people with good intentions and no skills, they could recruit likely young high school graduates in those countries, young people who already spoke the language like a native (because they were natives) and didn't need to be taught the culture, and didn't need air fare.\n\nWhat they all want are people with skills that the host countries have asked for. 99% of the time this involves a university degree. If someone has a degree in civil engineering with an emphasis in water and sanitary systems, he/she could travel the world, installing clean drinking water and sewage systems (septic tanks and concrete privies, probably.) He/she would save hundreds of lives and save the eldest daughter of each village two to three hours a day of labor; fetching water from the river, chopping trees, boiling the water.\n\nYou will note that requires a Bachelor of Science in a tough subject. A lot of volunteers teach English; I did. Their students go on to go to University somewhere, then come back and start installing water systems. (Or they become lawyers, or real estate developers.)\n\nThe 1% who don't have a university degree have an amazing amount of hard experience in something the host country wants to learn; fish farming, chicken farming, vegetable farming, native craft exports, co-op financing . . .\n\nSince you said "my teen", I'm assuming he/she hasn't finished University. She/he should, and should major in something useful, if he/she is serious about the CUSO. That means taking several courses in Teaching English as a Foreign Language, if he/she isn't on a track that will lead to a nursing, engineering or other degree that requires a lot of math and science.\n\nIf your teen is a 4-H leader and has managed a 30,000-bird chicken farm independently, or has worked with Heifer International for the last 6 years, he/she might get a spot.

I just finished planning a long island wedding and girl do I feel your pain. Very expensive!  It depends on how many people your going to invite and to be honest, maybe doing it at home is the best idea if you have the space.  There is the polish american club in port jeff that is very affordable to rent out, the setauket house which is very nice and some what affordable http://www.setauketneighborhoodhouse.com/  Renting a hall and catering food with decorations and everything is probably going to cost you at least 2000 making your own food will help a lot.  Good luck! and Congrats!

Cambridge accepts a lot of foreign students every year.  It is not like a university in the US, it is lots of colleges and they all accept different numbers of students are some accept more foreign students than others.  Why not go onto one of the JCR message boards?  (JCR means Junior Common Room and is for undergraduates)  Most of them have a place for questions from People who are interested in going to Cambridge.  The only two I know are downingjcr.co.uk  and jcr.sid.ucam.org  The first is for Downing College the second for Sidney Sussex College.  Downing is big and Sidney small.

RedRose pleaseeeeeeeeeeee.  \n\nAmerican men need to learn to keep their hands to themselves and when a caribbean woman say no she means NO.   Just last weekend I went to a club and was dancing with an American guy and they won't stop touching me.  He keep saying that the American women are not as beautiful and free and enjoying as caribbean women.  He even ask me who thought me how to dance cause I can dance to all kinds of music.\n\nYou would find men that worship us but also find those that think we are trash.  It all depends on you and your liking.\n\nPlus women from the caribbean don't give it up easy.

Hi timo (?). I'm a past president of the Rotary club of Baguio Sunrise here in the Philippines. I was one of those who helped organize the Rotaract club of STI Baguio Sunrise. This is a school based rotaract club. They are on semestral break now but soon as school resumes I will refer your question to them. I am sure they will be more than willing to communicate with you. RAC STI is a very very active club. They are only on their second year yet they were awarded as one of the Outstanding rotaract clubs of our District 3790.\nThanks and I look forward to extended friendships between your Rotaract Club and our Rotaract Club.\nGod Bless.

I got married on St. Lucia at an all inclusive resort, "sandals". We had a GREAT time and it was VERY easy to do. We just told all the people who wanted to come, to meet us there. We didn't have to take care of anyone but ourselves. I reccommend it highly. We stayed at the St. Lucian Grande. It was the largest resort on the island. They took care of all the legal work, and it was all legal when we got back to the United States.

I know lots of people who attended there, and i almost did myself. Not sure how reliable this info is, but I had a friend who said he got his degree from there but it turns out on of his instructor's credientals were doctored and therefore any student who had credits from this instructor had invalid degrees. I have no idea exactly how true that is.\n\nAs far as the financial situation, I think they have it all cleared up. I can't remember exactly what the problem was, but they got rid of everyone who used to work at ABS (knew someone who worked there & he got laid off) and hired an all new staff for LVC. I don't know why the two are still affiliated. Anyway, I don't think you have much to worry about. Just check it out good and read EVERYTHING before you sign. Good luck!
