Newgate School is a post-secondary non-profit vocational-technical school for residents of Minneapolis and Saint Paul, Minnesota and the surrounding area. Newgate provides tuition-free automotive vocational training and technical career placement opportunities for low income adults. It offers professional automotive technical certification in three areas: Auto-body Repair, Auto mechanics and Detailing. Graduates are qualified to work as career apprentices in the auto services industry. Newgate’s practical, hands-on approach to teaching technical skills is highly successful with students who struggle in traditional educational settings or for whom English is a second language. In 1981, Newgate pioneered the concept of using the sales of car donations as the single funding source for the school, thereby eliminating the dependence on tax-based government funding for support. Newgate began its Wheels for Women Program in 1996. Donated cars are repaired by the students and provided at no cost to single moms referred by social service agencies like the Jeremiah Program or Lutheran Social Services. Newgate provides approximately 50 cars per year through the Wheels program. In 2004, with bonds financed by the City of Minneapolis, the school constructed a new modern training facility and expanded its Auto Mechanics Training program. <SEP> the outcome was one of the most significant developments in a century of anglo - french conflict. france ceded to great britain its territory east of the mississippi. it ceded french louisiana west of the mississippi river (including new orleans) to its ally spain in compensation for spain's loss to britain of florida. (spain had ceded florida to britain in exchange for the return of havana, cuba.) france's colonial presence north of the caribbean was reduced to the islands of saint pierre and miquelon, confirming great britain's position as the dominant colonial power in eastern north america. <SEP> Because many of the tribes had fought as allies of the British, the United States compelled tribal leaders to sign away lands in postwar treaties, and began dividing these lands for settlement. This provoked a war in the Northwest Territory in which the U.S. forces performed poorly; the Battle of the Wabash in 1791 was the most severe defeat ever suffered by the United States at the hands of American Indians. President Washington dispatched a newly trained army to the region, which decisively defeated the Indian confederacy at the Battle of Fallen Timbers in 1794. In the Treaty of Paris after the Revolution, the British had ceded the lands between the Appalachian Mountains and the Mississippi River to the United States, without consulting the Shawnee, Cherokee, Choctaw and other smaller tribes who lived there. <SEP> stockton and kearny went on to recover los angeles and force the capitulation of alta california with the "treaty of cahuenga" on january 13, 1847. as a result of the mexican–american war of 1846–48, the territory of alta california, including san diego, was ceded to the united states by mexico, under the terms of the treaty of guadalupe hidalgo in 1848. the mexican negotiators of that treaty tried to retain san diego as part of mexico, but the americans insisted that san diego was "for every commercial purpose of nearly equal importance to us with that of san francisco," and the mexican-american border was eventually established to be one league south of the southernmost point of san diego bay, so as to include the entire bay within the united states. <SEP> She studied English at the University of Minnesota, but later ended up with a nursing degree. Her writing career started when she won an essay contest in "Parents" magazine. Since her debut novel in 1993, her novels have sold in large numbers and have received several awards and nominations, even though some critics have tagged them as sentimental. She won the New England Book Awards in 1997. Berg was born in Saint Paul, Minnesota, USA, and lived in Boston prior to her residence in Chicago. <SEP> The city is abundantly rich in water, with 13 lakes, wetlands, the Mississippi River, creeks and waterfalls; many connected by parkways in the Chain of Lakes and the Grand Rounds National Scenic Byway. It was once the world's flour milling capital and a hub for timber. Minneapolis lies on both banks of the Mississippi River, just north of the river's confluence with the Minnesota River, and adjoins Saint Paul, the state's capital. The city and surrounding region is the primary business center between Chicago and Seattle. As of 2018, Minneapolis was home to 6 Fortune 500 companies, and the Twin Cities were the fifth-largest hub of major corporate headquarters in the United States. As an integral link to the global economy, Minneapolis is categorized as a global city.
