THE IKE THAT TRIED TO STEAL CHRISTMAS
Dickinson ISD Students in Need
by Jeannie R. Thielemann

DICKINSON, TEXAS, November 17, 2008… For the past two months Dickinson ISD Education Foundation along with DISD staff members have been diligently working to meet the needs of students and their families affected by Hurricane Ike. Approximately 375 students had their family homes affected and cannot live in them due to flooding and windstorm damage or other related issues. The DISD Education Foundation has been accepting donations to help these students to recover and get back on track to learn. As the holiday season approaches the DISD Education Foundation would like to ask for your help in providing Holiday gifts to students above the age 12 that were affected by the hurricane. There are local agencies that provide help to families but are very limited in helping students above age 12. We would like your help in providing for students over the age 12 that are not being helped by any other agencies especially those who have been impacted by Hurricane Ike.

Check Your Car With the Change of Seasons
Car trouble is almost always due to neglected preventive maintenance.


Tow truck operators serving the nation’s Interstates can testify to the surprising number of travelers forced to return home ahead of schedule because of car trouble. The cost of a breakdown can easily exceed that of a repair bill with towing charges, emergency lodging and possibly a rental car. Just think: All that inconvenience is avoidable by performing factory recommended preventive maintenance and having us check your car before you head out on a major trip.

You Can Have Any Color As Long As It’s Green
Automobile manufacturers are giving paint a “green” makeover.


The painting process is the most environmentally challenging part of the automobile factory. It requires extensive—and expensive—air and water treatment systems, as well as recovery equipment to prevent air and water pollution. That’s why carmakers are turning to new technology and materials to make their paint shops more environmentally friendly.

The Best Gift of All – Saving Money!
You might be filled with holiday cheer, but don’t let it leave your wallet empty!


Mom? Done. Dad? Almost done. Pastry platters? Picking those up this afternoon. It’s the holiday season, and it seems like you’re constantly stopping and going, picking up gifts for the family and stopping at the grocery store for dinner. Don’t forget that last minute gift that you need for the Yankee swap. As your list gets longer, you end up spending more and before you know it, you’re muttering, “Bah humbug.”

Gobble Up the Leftovers!
You’ll enjoy these tasty ideas for Thanksgiving leftovers.


It’s never too early to think about what you’re making for Thanksgiving, or even how you’ll use the leftovers for that matter! Before you know it, the holiday will be upon us, and you’ll be scrambling. However, just as quickly as the holiday sneaks up on you, it’s gone. For many, that’s where the fun lies: the leftovers.
