IFC Midnight has unveiled the first trailer for the upcoming horror film The Autopsy of Jane Doe. The film hails from Troll Hunter director André Øvredal and stars Brian Cox and Emile Hirsch as a father/son duo who run their family-owned morgue in Virginia. One night, an unknown female corpse is brought in after being found in the basement of a home where a multiple homicide took place. However, as the two begin their autopsy, strange goings-on take place, and they soon begin to question how dead this woman really is.
The trailer promises a contained thriller with plenty of spooky imagery and jump scares. Cox and Hirsch are two talented performers, so the potential is there for a solid horror film. Reviews out of the film's Toronto International Film Festival debut a few weeks ago were something of a mixed bag, but audiences will get the chance to judge for themselves soon enough.
Check out the Autopsy of Jane Doe trailer below. The film opens in theaters on December 21st.
Here's the official synopsis for The Autopsy of Jane Doe:
Experienced coroner Tommy Tilden and his grown-up son Austin run a family-owned morgue and crematorium in Virginia. When the local Sheriff brings in an emergency case — an unknown female corpse nicknamed 'Jane Doe', found in the basement of a home where a multiple homicide took place — it seems like just another open-and-shut case. But as the autopsy proceeds, these seasoned professionals are left reeling as each layer of their inspection brings frightening new revelations. Perfectly preserved on the outside, Jane Doe's insides have been scarred, charred and dismembered — seemingly the victim of a horrific yet mysterious ritualistic torture. As Tommy and Austin begin to piece together these gruesome discoveries, an unnatural force takes hold of the crematorium. While a violent storm rages above ground, it seems the real horrors lie on the inside…

Georgina Cundill Kemp shares her learning experiences on large-scale collaborative research. Collaborative research that involves many partners with diverse backgrounds and interests is challenging.

Collaborative research that takes this challenge a step further by also attempting to have an impact on communities, practice and policy is more challenging.
ASSAR aspires to both of these things on a grand scale - across two continents, seven countries and with more than 10 partners and sub-partners. An effort such as this must be recognised for what it is: an experiment from which to learn.
ASSAR is not alone in its aspirations for action-oriented research within large transdisciplinary networks. Such models of research are becoming increasingly common in global environmental change research. Indeed, ASSAR joins a new cohort of research communities who have risen to the challenges posed by climate change by being prepared to re-think not only how knowledge is produced, but by whom it is produced, where it should be produced, and for what purpose. Recognising this new space that ASSAR is occupying, and indeed discovering together, brings with it the need to find ways to enable teams of researchers and practitioners to work and learn together effectively.
It is one thing, and perfectly acceptable, to 'muddle through' complex projects, learning-by-doing and being adaptive in the face of constant change. It is another thing altogether to give forethought to how the diffuse learning that happens every day in ASSAR can be harnessed in order to improve how the project is implemented, and the impact of the project, in real time. This is a learning-based approach to large-scale collaborative research, and is the kind of game-changer that pushes the frontiers of transdisciplinary research practice.

I'm a horrible singer, I doubt either would want to sing with me, haha.
Besides, I wouldn't have the confidence to actually preform or anything, so it wouldn't have a point.

Sheeran, 26, sported a full cast on one arm and a sling on the other arm as he walked down the red carpet at London's Q Awards for music.
"I am a bit bruised and broken but I am fine," the singer told Reuters. "It was a bike accident and I broke my wrist, broke my elbow, broke a rib ... I'll be alright though."
Sheeran added that the future of his "Divide" world tour was "up to (my) manager and agent."
The singer said in an Instagram post this week that he suffered fractures to his wrist and elbow and that he was "unable to perform live concerts for the immediate future." His injury forced the cancellation of tour dates in Taipei, Osaka, Seoul, Tokyo and Hong Kong so far.
Sheeran went into Wednesday's awards with three nominations and won the accolade for best act in the world today. The annual ceremony hosted by Britain's Q magazine, celebrates musical talent.

Two-day observation would curb antibiotic prescribing
The news report on increased antibiotic resistance in high-volume prescribing practices (May 5) raised the following thoughts.
For about 100 million years, the mammalian immune system has evolved to repel all microbial attacks. It is powerful, specific and memorises every one of hundreds of bacterial assaults it has encountered in each individual.
In comparison, all antibiotics are weak, crude and all induce resistance. Antibiotics also disrupt the body's normal flora and allow colonisation by pathogens which the normal flora exclude.
Those GPs who are high-volume prescribers should review the adequacy of their knowledge and in most cases of URTI and UTI, and should consider a two-day observation period before prescribing an antibiotic. That period will allow the body to mount an immune response, and research has repeatedly shown the recurrence rate of the same infection is reduced greatly where the antibiotic has been delayed (compared with recurrence when an antibiotic has been prescribed at once). A two-day observation period also results in the spontaneous recovery of about 85 per cent of infections.
To finish where I begun, the human body has been carrying its own infection pretty well for a very long time, and when the antibiotic era is over (c. 2020), the body will continue to do so in most cases.

5/3/86 - GCW Superstars (TAPED: 4/21/86)
LOCATION: Mid-Hudson Civic Center - Poughkeepsie, NY
The Barbarian vs. "The Japanese Assassin" Shiro Koshinaka
No one has really even come close to stopping The Barbarian since he burst on the scene in GCW. Shiro Koshinaka took his shot at it today, but the Japanese Assassin didn't fare much better. He's a very talented competitor but The Barbarian's brute strength simply overwhelmed him as he remained undefeated. Monsoon wondered aloud if there was anybody capable of stopping The Barbarian. Niemiller admitted he has looked dominant, but nobody is unstoppable.
The Barbarian pinned Shiro Koshinaka with the Diving Headbutt in 0:03:06.
Rating: * 3/4
After commercial, we got a pre-recorded announcement from the office of GCW President Jack Tunney. Tunney said that as a result of how our program ended last week, a 6-man tag team match had been signed for tonight's Saturday Night Slam Masters. Koko B. Ware will team with The Mexican Eagles to take on Television champion Tully Blanchard, Arn Anderson, & Lex Luger of the Heenan Family. We then cut to videos from the competitors involved, both teams essentially saying the same thing - they are going to win tonight on NBC.
"The Total Package" Lex Luger (w/ Bobby "The Brain" Heenan) vs. Serge Jodoin
Speaking of Lex Luger, he was up in our next match. The Total Package continued to show what kind of future he has by making short and easy work out of Serge Jodoin.
Lex Luger pinned Serge Jodoin after a powerslam in 0:01:30.
Rating: -1/2*
After the match, the man that Luger beat at MSG, WAHOO MCDANIEL, came down and grabbed Howard Finkel's mic. He echoed what he said at MSG, telling Luger that he has one big future here, but that he showed he was a punk when he blew him off after their match. He told Luger not to listen to that weasel Bobby Heenan, and to do the right thing and shake his hand like a man. Luger looked very tentative about it as the Brain implored the Total Package to just leave. As the fans cheered it on though, Luger caved in and did the right thing - or so we thought. Luger did shake Wahoo's hand, but as soon as Wahoo turned his back, Luger nailed him from behind. The crowd booed as Luger put the boots to Wahoo, but little did they know it was about to get worse. Luger pulled Wahoo to the corner and wrapped his leg around the ring post. Heenan handed his charge a steel chair which Luger used to smash Wahoo's knee. This seems to be a theme of the Heenan Family lately. Luger hit Wahoo's knee several more times, all but shattering Wahoo's kneecap. Wahoo had to be stretchered out of the arena. It's too soon to say, but Monsoon & Niemiller speculated that McDaniel's GCW career may have just come to a violent end.
Big John Studd (w/ Bobby "The Brain" Heenan) vs. Don Driggers/Ron Shaw
During this dominant squash by Big John Studd of two overmatched opponent, Bobby Heenan & Studd gave an insert promo. Nothing ground-breaking, saying that after tonight's Saturday Night Slam Masters, he was going to show himself to be the one and only true giant of wrestling when he meets Andre the Giant. That, as they say, remains to be seen.
Big John Studd defeated Don Driggers and Ron Shaw when Studd pinned Shaw with the Backbreaker in 0:02:47.
Rating: -* 1/2
Non-Title Match
The Rock 'N Roll Express (World Tag Team champions) vs. Scott McGhee/John Centeno
We got to see the World Tag Team champions in action next as Ricky Morton & Robert Gibson brought the heat against Scott McGhee & John Centeno. Nothing more than a display of the talents of the 3-time champions.
The Rock 'N Roll Express (Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson) defeated Scott McGhee and John Centeno when R. Morton pinned McGhee after the Double Dropkick in 0:01:41.
Rating: * 1/4
After the bout, they were joined in the ring by Lord Alfred Hayes, who asked what was next for the reigning tag champs. Morton & Gibson said that the tag team division in GCW has never been better, and there are a lot of worthy contenders. Gibson said that they have always prided themselves on their willingness to take on all comers, and this third title reign would be no different. At this point they were interrupted by JIMMY HART & THE HART FOUNDATION. Bret Hart proclaimed that if the Rock 'N Roll Express were looking for their next challengers, look no further than the Hart Foundation. Jim Neidhart added that if they didn't believe them, just watch what they did to the Rougeau Brothers tonight. We went to commercial with the two teams engaged in a staredown.
"Mean" Gene was fired up as usual as he ran down the card for tonight's Saturday Night Slam Masters airing on NBC. The main story is obviously going to be the World Heavyweight Title clash between King Kong Bundy and Hulk Hogan. Okerlund went into detail about what went down in the 6-man tag at MSG with Bundy essentially running from Hogan and Hogan getting the pin on Ricky Steamboat. A clip was shown of the Heenan Family after the match all but losing their minds about what happened, Steamboat saying that he would make personally sure Hogan didn't leave Slam Masters with the World Title. Back to Okerlund, who was joined by his guest RICK MARTEL. Martel said he heard Steamboat's words, and he was making a promise to Hulk Hogan and all of the GCW fans - the Dragon would not be a factor in tonight's title match. Martel concluded by saying that on May 24 in Pittsburgh, he would make sure Steamboat wouldn't be a factor in GCW period. Okerlund thanked Martel and finished by saying that he would have more updates on the Pittsburgh show next week.
Animal (w/ Hawk/Paul Ellering) vs. Stan "The Lariat" Hansen (w/ Sgt. Slaughter)
This one was set to combust from the start. Animal and Stan Hansen are two guys bound to get out of control under normal circumstances. Add their tag team partners at ringside, and it was not a matter of if, but when this one would turn into a debacle. Referee Tommy Young was in the most unenviable position of keeping order in this match, and he did the best he could. But once Hansen tossed Animal to the outside, all bets were off. Slaughter came over to immediately get involved, but Hawk cut him off and those two started fighting. Animal took exception to this and nailed Slaughter in the back. Hansen jumped to the floor and attacked Animal again, and Tommy Young had no choice but to throw this one out.
Animal and Stan Hansen battled to a double disqualification in 0:07:14.
Rating: ** 1/2
The show came to a close with all four men tearing each other, and subsequently all of the ringside area, apart.
Next week on Superstars, we will have the fallout of Saturday Night Slam Masters! On the program, Ricky Steamboat will be in action, as will the Rougeau Brothers! Andre the Giant will be here as well, and in a huge main event, we will see Bob Backlund taking on Bad News Brown! See you tonight in Providence!
Based on the chaos at the end of the broadcast, it was announced that on May 24 in Pittsburgh, the Civic Arena will host a match between Hawk & Sgt. Slaughter, and to prevent any kind of large brawl like this taking place, tag team partners will be banned from ringside.

West Hartford's Danielle Schuman, a recent graduate of Hamilton College, was selected for the 2019 Division III Pocock All-America women's team by the Collegiate Rowing Coaches Association (CRCA) on July 10.
Schuman, who was placed on the first team, is the Hamilton women's rowing program's fifth different all-American and eighth selection overall. Sixteen rowers and two coxswain are on the Division III all-America team.

Schuman, a graduate of Conard, was part of a varsity 8 boat that finished sixth in the grand final at the 2019 NCAA Division III Women's Rowing Championships and competed in the grand final at the National Invitational Rowing Championships. Hamilton was No. 6 in the final CRCA/USRowing Division III Top 15 regular season coaches poll and went on to finish sixth in the team standings at the NCAA championships.

Why you joined ASB: I joined ASB to create a difference in my highschool career along with the rest of the student body's. Highschool is one of the greatest milestone in one's life and gaining a memorable one for each student is the goal. My desire to join ASB was due to the want to change and improve the school. Besides making a difference, I wanted to join a group that I could call a second family, which I know I can now. Something people may not know you: In fifth grade I was home schooled because I almost died. I met Jake Paul at disneyland.

About: So if y'all didnt know I'm actually a god at super smash. (false) Like if you try me, I will call my homegirl Princess Peach and she don't hesitate. This guy named Iann tried to 1v1 me once and unfortunately he faced her wrath. (false - Iann) It was a flawless KO. Also I'm pretty good at mario kart too like I will use a shell on you no questions asked, you're gone. I'm also in Key Club.
Why you joined ASB: I joined ASB because student government has always been a passion of mine. I've been on a student council since I was in third grade. ASB is an outlet for me to express my school spirit and hopefully encourage others to feel that same spirit. ASB has given so much meaning to my high school career and I hope that being an ASB member, I can show my gratitude by helping develop our school culture to embody ideals of inclusivity and Baron pride. #B4L
Something people may not know about you: I'm a minecraft god (also false)
Francine Tran
Grade: 12
Nickname: ASB Sugar Daddy, Fran
About: I'm super big on nature, I love hiking, camping, and whale-watching. I'm the oldest in my family and we love to travel. I've been to Hawaii, Europe, Canada, Alaska, and Seattle. During the school year you could probably catch me at Blue Bowl/Tastea or neither because Jolynna likes to save money. Aside from this, you could catch me outside.
Why you joined ASB: for the people
Something people may not know about you: instagram&venmo: francinehtran
Lana Zaide
Grade: 11? I don't remember anymore...
Nickname: Zaidyyy (Zay-dieee)
About: There are countless names, I mean descriptions, I have for myself. MMM where do I start... I would say I'm weird, outgoing, and unique in my own way. I'm quite the average student who doesn't want to cry themselves to sleep every night. I played 3 sports until I tore my ACL, so you know good bye to any possible scholarships. Lastly, I am very outspoken and you can always count on me to stand up for something that's obviously not right.
Why you joined ASB: Why wouldn't I join ASB? This is one of the greatest extracurriculars you could ask for. The people in ASB of 2019-2020 have now become my brothers and sisters, who I know I can always count on to make me laugh and smile. Nothing feels like work or a task when I'm with them. But the main reason I joined ASB is because I felt like I was always the unliked or odd kid out and being apart of ASB gives me the opportunity to not have any student at FVHS feel that way. My goal is for everyone at FVHS to crack a smile at least once this year when they see anyone on ASB.
Something people may not know about you: Something you may not know about me is that I have a younger brother that goes to Mater Dei who I have to pick up everyday after school. But I love him... hahaha :/ No but for real, that boy means almost everything to me and I would give up anything and everything for him... But don't tell him that ;)

Meray Gayed
Grade: 12
Nickname: N/A
About: I am a very go with the flow person. Wether it's 6AM or 12AM, if you ask me to hangout with you 5 minutes in advance, I will be there. Especially if it's korean bbq! But of course, my all time favorite thing to do would definitely have to be meeting new people, I never want to stay in one friend group. Anyways that's me in about 4 sentences, if you want to know more call me at 714- oops word limit ran out :(
Why you joined ASB: I joined ASB because I believe it's where I belong. Planning and coordinating events solely to make students happy is exactly why I joined. All of us are stressed about school and ASB exists so you're able to forget about all things stress related for a little bit and have fun. And of course, I'm not planning these events alone, but I work alongside my team!
Something people may not know about you: I'm Egyptian

Loves to overuse adjectives & adverbs to disguise her lack of vocab knowledge. Is not a hip$ter, but CAN make your hips stir ;)
Why you joined ASB: School is like a 2 in 1 shampoo bottle. Of course, with school comes the 'stress' factor. But school should also include the FUN factor!!! I want to be able to contribute in making fvhs a FUN place for our barons so that coming to school can actually be enjoyable! Putting in the hard work & effort is so worth it when i'm able to see the positive reactions from our students >.<

The Board will likely be seeing a proposal for Mahout as a TLP next month (we are in the middle of a release cycle so we don't want any distractions at the moment). I think Tika can stand on it's own, too, and the community there should have the discussion. At the same time, I don't want to "kick them out", either, but I would encourage them to at least have the discussion. The Ports of Lucene are a bit tricky in my mind. Both of them are auto-generated for the most part, so they don't require a super amount of work to produce, but they don't really seem to be standalone either other than there isn't much committer overlap. I personally think the status quo works really well there, but again, just my opinion. That leaves Solr and Nutch. The past vote has answered the question for Solr. I guess I'd encourage the Nutch community to have a discussion on it. There isn't much committer overlap there with Lucene or Solr but there is some code overlap. Personally, I think the crawling/plugin stuff could spin out but the core Lucene/analyzers stuff merits a review and a merge. Again, that is up to Nutch to decide. Last I looked at Nutch they were moving to a more modular architecture that focused on crawling and handed off the other stuff to things like Solr and Tika. -Grant

Stunning. This word alone describes my overall impression with the region around vibrant Munnar in the Western Ghat mountains, a relatively small mountain town surrounded with tea plantations and forest reserves which are recognized as a UNESCO Global Biodiversity hotspot. Saturday morning we were surprised to find a line of five 4WD Mahindra Commanders (Indian Jeeps) waiting to take us further into the mountains to the Research and Development Centre of the Kanan Devan Hills Plantations Co (KDHP). Nearby, a couple of inches of snow had fallen just the day before (!) and as we approached the R & D facility we saw that the tops of some of the tea shrubs had taken on a reddish hue as a result of the frost damage that occurred over the past week. The scenery along our route was truly breathtaking and like no landscape I had ever seen. Cultivation of tea began in this part of India less than 150 years ago, and yet the mountains are literally covered with tea bushes interspersed with silver oak, which provides partial shade to the plants.
Upon arrival at KDHP, we enjoyed an excellent presentation describing the unique company culture. KDHP is the largest tea company in South India, and it's extensive land holdings comprise 60,000 acres of tea plantations that yield 25 million kg of leaves per year. The plantations encompass a wide range of microclimates, with the best quality tea growing at the highest elevations with the least annual rainfall. The 11,500 employees are part of a unique participatory management business model and own 55% of the company shares. The best employees are identified each year and elected to the director's board to participate in decision making for the company. Employee housing, primary education, and scholarship opportunities are all provided for free. Employees and local "Muthuvan" tribe members alike are provided with free healthcare. Altogether, 40,000 people in the area benefit directly or indirectly from the company's activities. And, if KDHP's social mission wasn't impressive enough, the company has a strong commitment to environmental conservation in the region and encourages biodiversity research and reforestation initiatives. It's hard to believe that such a benevolent company exists in today's world, but KDHP is proof that such a business model can and does work effectively.
The presentation went on to describe the agronomic and biochemical properties of the tea plant. We learned that the key to robust tea flavor was the high levels of polyphenols in the leaves, which are highest in the top three leaves and emerging buds of the plants. The five different types of tea that were described to us (white, green, oolong, black "orthodox", and black CTC – "crush, tear, curl") differed not in their cultivars but in their processing. By processing in different ways, tea leaves are oxidized differently and emit a diverse variety of volatile flavor compounds. We learned that white tea is a perfect example of a "value-added" product, in that only the topmost leaf is harvested and then minimally processed. Only 400 kg per year of white tea is harvested. In comparison, classic green tea is collected at the rate of 40-60 kg per day, and is sold at a price approximately a hundred times less than that of white tea. The biochemical properties of each tea are carefully measured with an impressive array of analytical instruments onsite, and tissue culture facilities are available as well.
After the presentation, the group enjoyed some tea and cake before heading out to the tea plantation. The women working in the field demonstrated two alternative harvesting techniques: using their two hands to pluck the top three leaves plus the emerging bud, or by using special shears that had a sort of basket attached to harvest tea leaves more rapidly. Hand-plucking occurs once every fifteen days, and workers pluck a maximum of 100 tea bushes per day. The oldest tea bushes on the plantation date to 1877, and these are still producing tea leaves (!), although the more recent plantings yield tea leaves that are more consistent in their overall quality. After the demonstration, the students paired up for a tea plucking contest! It was a very competitive match, and although most students followed the rules, some of the more unscrupulous students may have colluded with some of the fieldworkers based on the enormous amounts of tea leaves collected by a certain few.
Next, we headed to one of KDHP's factories to see how CTC tea is processed, which comprises 60% of the company's sales. The tea leaves are at 35% moisture when plucked, and upon arrival at the factory they're first fed through metal rollers to crush the leaves. Afterwards, they're placed on mesh to remove the moisture from the crushed leaves using large fans. This oxidizes the leaves and turns the color from green to black. As the "fermentation" process proceeds (not "true" fermentation) the leaves are continuously monitored for taste and smell, then the reaction is arrested at 130º C at the appropriate time to retain the desired aroma and flavor. The leaves are subsequently sorted by size; course tea leaves are preferred in North India and result in a lighter cup of tea, while finer leaves or tea dust is preferred in South India and produces a bolder, darker tea. The leaves are then quickly vacuum-packed. Before leaving the factory, tea quality is assessed by tea experts at the company using evaluation parameters such as leaf appearance, tea color (both with and without milk added), and most importantly, taste.
Overall, it was a truly fascinating and informative day, and if you ever have the opportunity to visit the Western Ghat mountains, do yourself a favor and experience this naturally beautiful part of the world yourself!

The Camden Raglan
Everyone over here at Hey June is pretty excited to announce the release of the Camden Raglan! Not only is this a great wardrobe staple, it's the beginning of the brand new Hey June Juniors line of patterns! This line will be aimed toward tweens and teens ages 6-16, with designs your girl will love! As our kids get older, it's harder to find sewing patterns that fit them and their decidedly opinionated styles, and that's where "Hey Juniors" comes in. Yeah, I said Hey Juniors. I can't help myself 🙂
The Camden Raglan is kicking off this line as the perfect raglan tee staple for your girls' wardrobe. The version shown here is the most basic, with elbow length sleeves and a curved hem. You can sew this view together in only about 30 minutes! You know, just in case they never put their dirty clothes in the hamper and their closets are empty before school.
The Camden is aimed toward older girls with its flattering curved raglan and side seams and a wider neckline. All of the sleeves are fitted, and the long sleeves are cut extra long to be more in line with RTW styles.
Other options include 3/4 length sleeves, long hemmed sleeves, long sleeves with extra wide wristbands, a banded hem, a kangaroo pocket, a hood, and sporty sleeve stripes! Mix and match to make your (and your picky teen's) perfect raglan tee!
I started sewing again when this almost-10 yr old kiddo was born, and I love that Hey June is growing up with her. The Camden Raglan came about when I couldn't find the perfect non-unisex, shaped raglan pattern to mimic the styles we were finding in stores that went up to teen sizing. Future Hey Juniors patterns will probably come about the same way. I'm always up for suggestions and requests if the perfect pattern is eluding you and your tween/teen as well!
Come back here tomorrow to see a round up of all the fabulous tester Camdens and see all the options and opportunities for personalization! And don't forget to grab the pattern while it's on sale! It's only $6.50 through Sunday 3/13 at 11:59 pm MST – no coupon necessary! Now that's a deal.
Peace out!

Thank you! I shop for my girls and don't love all the characters/way too grown up stuff on shirts for them. And they are exactly in this sizing! So thanks a ton!
Sarah J.March 10, 2016 at 11:39 am
I love the name- so perfect! I am so happy to see this size range coming into it's own– my girl is only 6, but big and I am already seeing the end of some great patterns. This is a perfect classic style she can wear now and (might) still be willing to wear when she's older too! I began sewing for her more and more when she moved out of the toddler size range and into "big girls"- the fabric alone those clothes are made of is awful- not to mention the styles. Thanks for filling in the gap for these kiddos (and their moms).
ayeletloranMarch 10, 2016 at 11:56 am
Yay! So glad to have another option for my tween girls! They are going to love this pattern!
KatyMarch 10, 2016 at 12:02 pm
Yaaaaayyyy!!! I have a 9 and a 7 year old who will be so excited!!
Lisa GMarch 10, 2016 at 12:22 pm
Fantastic! Can't wait to see this line expand.
KristaMarch 10, 2016 at 1:12 pm
Thank you so much for this! I too have an almost-10-year-old who is OVER dresses and cutesie little girl patterns. I've been feeling sad that there's not much I can sew for her anymore, so I'm super excited about the Hey Juniors line! Can't wait to see more!
LucindaMarch 10, 2016 at 1:23 pm
This is SUPER exciting! You are most definitely filling a pattern void with this age/size range – so glad at long last there's fun sewing options for our teens! Thank you!Since you asked for future suggestions, I've been looking for a Junior version of your beautiful Cheyenne Tunic:)
Amy ReinagelMarch 11, 2016 at 7:47 am
This is awesome! Love that you are accommodating the ever-so-forgotten tween. I've got 12 and 14 year old boys and patterns for them are scarce. Do you have anything in the works for tween boys by chance?
TaraMarch 15, 2016 at 6:00 am
Omg. Hey juniors. *snort* yay for you make some good options for older kids. I'm not sure what I'll do with clover. She's the height of an 8 year old and the width of a 3 year old. my options for patterns that suit both of her dimensions are dwindling. Store bought clothes are hiiiiiilarious on her too
Sarah KMarch 17, 2016 at 1:14 pm
So excited about your size range!! My 9 year old is pushing the end of all the little girl patterns that go to 10/12 and so many store bought 10/12 clothes are too wide for her narrow rib cage. I can't wait to see what else you release in this range.

Congratulations! Thank you everyone who voted. Here's the
2012-13 board for WCA Philadelphia Chapter.
Ellen K. Bonett - Co-President
I want to engage my audience. My art is not just a reflection of myself; it is a culmination of universal ideas and perceptions translated into different media. The community plays a necessary role in the translation, because my work is mainly abstract. If the public can assimilate a personal reflection in the work, then I have achieved my objective of inspiring interaction. I am gradually combining all of the elements that excite me in my work – recognizable 3D objects, abstract forms and color into larger installations. More information about Ellen and her work can be found http://ekb-art.org/home.html.
Bonnie MacAllister- Co-President
Bonnie MacAllister renders moments in a variety of media. She has recently exhibited cross-genre work in NY at Et Al Projects (film and still photography printed on metal) and at Raandesk Gallery (film and performance), in MD at Sandy Spring Museum (film, photography, performance, and fiber art), and in Pennsylvania at the Ellen Powell Tiberino Museum (film and performance), and in Virginia at Artomatic (computer generated imagery). MacAllister is a recipient (with Jeanne Lombardo) of the 2012 Artlines Fellowship to design a national zine, and she has represented the Philadelphia Chapter and the Young Women's Caucus at National Conference twice. She edits the cross-genre collaborative site and publication, www.certaincircuits.org. She consults on marketing and development for nonprofits and individuals, and she is a writer for Flying Kite and Tom Tom, among others. For more information, please visit bonniemacallister.com.
Virginia Maksymowicz- Treasurer
She is a past recipient of a National Endowment for the Arts fellowship in sculpture (1984), and over the years has been honored with numerous other grants and awards. Her artwork has been reviewed in Sculpture Magazine, The New York Times, New York Newsday, The New Art Examiner and The Philadelphia Inquirer. Her series, The History of Art, appears on the cover of The Female Body, published by the University of Michigan Press.
She has been a visiting artist at the American Academy in Rome, an artist-in-residence at the Powel House Museum in Philadelphia, and a fellow at the Vermont Studio Center.
Maksymowicz is currently Associate Professor of Art at Franklin & Marshall College in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Her website is http://tandm.us/.
Laura Petrovich-Cheney-Secretary
Laura Petrovich-Cheney graduated with a BA from Dickinson College, MS from Drexel University and an MFA from Moore College of Art & Design. Her work has been exhibited in numerous venues including the George Segall Gallery, Monmouth Museum, Delaware Art Museum and the Shore Institute of Contemporary Art. She has received a grant from The Dodge Foundation and awards from the National Art Education Association, the Council for Art Education, National Academy of Art and the New Jersey State Department of Education. In the fall of 2013, she will participate in a residency to the Arctic Circle.
Petrovich-Cheney's work focuses on resurrecting debris found in the natural environment. She upcycles and repurposes washed up boats, hollowed tree trunks, abandoned wasps' nests and her honeybees' wax to create sculptures and mixed media work. Her autobiography and the environment inform her work as she documents place and experience.
In addition, she is a National Board Certified Art Educator working with children from kindergarten to middle school. She presents lectures on art education nationally. Petrovich-Cheney is also an active member several not-for-profit art organizations and was selected to write the art education curriculum for New Jersey Museum of Contemporary Art. She maintains a blog on her art practice and writes reviews of art exhibits in the tri-state area.
Laura Petrovich-Cheney is full-time practicing, professional artist who lives and works in Asbury Park, NJ, who also maintains several organic vegetable gardens, flower gardens, a small orchard and several colonies of honeybees.
Thank you for taking the time to vote. Please remember that this is a volunteer organization, not a newsletter.

Day Ten: I have a pretty standard morning routine- wake up, shower, do my hair and make-up, grab a cup of coffee and venture over to work. But my mornings aren't complete without checking out my favorite fashion blogs (my mornings don't feel complete until I visit them all). I check out news headlines every morning but there are times when one can only handle so much negativity and brutality. I break that up with blogs, admiring their positive content. Plus, they give me the inspiration to post frequently on 20Something (that and they convinced me to wear heels on the daily).
Monthly Archives: April 2015
Day Nine of my Happiness Journey
Day Nine: Sometimes, I think about dropping everything and becoming a traveling musician. I'd sing pretty bluegrass songs and play the guitar and violin with great ease. I'd travel the states, performing for crowds and making videos documenting my travels. Granted, I only feel comfortable singing in front of my boyfriend but this daydream of mine seems more idealistic every day, especially days I'm incredibly stressed. Yesterday was one of those days. It was busy and I was exhausted but when my head finally hit the pillow, I couldn't fall asleep. Thoughts of being so far behind at work, moving and money problems and still being unable to memorize my lines bounced around in my head. It's times like this when I have panic attacks- my body tenses up sharply and I cry for hours. Determined not to let myself fall, I watched Alison Krauss and Union Station's live concert. I didn't fall back to sleep but I did feel much better, calmer and focused. I spent the night packing and going through old paperwork.
The poet and playwright, William Congreve, wrote "Music has charms to soothe a savage breast" (this line is often misquoted but it's true). I am thankful for the beauty I can hear during the times I'm at my lowest and I will always appreciate music's ability to raise me up.
Day Eight of my Happiness Journey
Day Seven of my Happiness Journey
Day Seven: Monday is not my favorite day of the week. After an especially adventurous weekend, the last thing I want to do is sit in front of my office computer for eight hours. Nevertheless, I spend most of my Monday indoors. By the time five o'clock rolls around, I'm itching to get outside. Now that the weather is warm, I'm eager to hop on my bike and ride somewhere. Although my current schedule doesn't leave much time for leisurely rides, I still find a moment to cycle somewhere for a quick snack (or maybe to grab a bouquet of flowers at the Co-op, as I'm planning to do right now) before my next appointment.
And away I go!
Day Six of my Happiness Journey
Day Six: I've always been a sucker for cities- San Francisco is no exception. Each time I visit the City by the Bay, I discover a new reason to fall in love with it. The weekend, my boyfriend, his sister and I roamed around her neighborhood, the Mission. I have to admit that I never visited that part of the city until I starting dating Steve but it has grown to be my favorite 'hood. From the pastors preaching their sermons in Spanish to the public to the indie shops filled with unaffordable clothing, the SF Armory (aka Kink.com) to all the beautiful street art, the Mission district is a place that I would someday like to call home.
Day Five of My Happiness Journey
Day Five: The manfriend surprised me a quick trip San Francisco (congrats on graduating, Alex!). The city is only four hours away, through the Sierras and down into the Sacramento Valley. I like the mountain twists and turns and screaming "YOLO" every time we reach Yolo County. I took a lot of roadtrips as a kid, visiting my Nana and Guelo in Jersey or one of my father's sisters in SoCal. These trips always filled me with warmth, knowing that I will eventually be seeing a familiar smiling face or the sites of a city I hold so dearly inside.
Day Four of my Happiness Journey
Day Four: One of my favorite things about my neighborhood are all the feral cats running around. Most of them are shy but a few let you approach them… as long as you have food. There is a black kitten that likes hanging out my porch. In the mornings, I leave some cat treats out and some afternoons, I come home to find the fluffy puff waiting for me. He lets me pet him for a moment and meows a soft thanks before running away to play with his feline friends.
Day Three of my Happiness Journey
Day Three: Have you ever woken up and immediately thought, I need coffee- STAT(!)? I don't drink as much as I used to (I was a latte junkie when I lived in Brooklyn) but when I need to satisfy that fix, I cross the street to my favorite Reno roaster, the Riverside Hub. I grab a dirty chai, have a brief conversation with the barista at the counter and always walk by the bike rack to get some riding accessories inspiration. I was sad for a moment, knowing that I'm going to move away from this tasty place – then, I remembered that the another Hub location is right around the corner from my new home.
Coffee- the best way to start (almost) any day.
Day Two of My Happiness Journey
Day Two: I'm no actress, but I'm trying to be one. Last autumn, a friend suggested that I audition for a play. I figured that I had nothing to lose as I stammered my way through lines at the tryout. I soon learned that I got the role and been mentally preparing myself for it since. The play is "Clybourne Park" and it's about my favorite thing to talk about… race. Interestingly enough, the play is hilarious and me and my castmates find each other giggling at the silliest moments. Even though I still have no idea what I'm doing (I'm having the hardest time memorizing lines), I'm finding this theater experience to be incredibly soothing and cathartic. I like coming in to rehearsal and surrendering Andrea in order to become this character. Plus, I work with terrific people. At the end of the night, my abs hurt from laughter.
Day One of My Happiness Journey
I'm trying to build more solid, positive habits in my life. Yes, change is good. Moving in with the man friend in two weeks. Getting out of my comfort zone with stage acting. Going to the gym at least thrice a week. Taking my multivitamin every day. Reading the front section of the New York Times. I have a lot going on these next couple of months and I feel like now, more than ever, is the perfect time to start living consciously, playing a more active role in my health, wealth and happiness, instead of simply just waiting for everything to fall into place.
It's difficult, trying to change for the better. After a long day at work, I always want to stuff my face and retreat to my bedroom (so long exercise plan and social life!). It's easy to get stressed and lose your natural happy with work or relationships, especially when you have an established routine (or if you're trying to build one) and all the stress that builds up behind it. I don't do enough stepping back and looking at the happy, good things in my life.
A friend on Facebook started posting every day the things that make her especially happy. She posts a status or picture of something small that makes her smile, "the best things in life are the small ones." So, I'm going to do the same- 30 days of happiness. Of finding happiness in everything, not just the little things. Making sure that I do find that something every day…
Day One: It's my fourth favorite thing in world behind sleeping, bike riding and doing the "something something…" I love receiving letters in the mail and vice versa. At least once a month, I take an evening to sit down and write my friends little notes before sending them off with pretty stamps glued to the envelope. Letter writing may be outdated but I know that my loved ones appreciate them. We send each other advice and words of encouragement, and so when we're miles upon miles apart, we still feel close. I received a letter from my former Brooklyn roommate, Telaia. Her words were kind and soothing and for a brief moment, I laid in bed and fondly looked back on my time in the Big Apple. Oh, the magic of friendship and a good pen…

The Department of Correctional Services revealed on Wednesday afternoon in Pretoria that a new law has been passed. The law states that inmates will soon begin to get a monthly salary for the work they do while in prison. This is done to help them with their daily needs while in prison and to enable them to start off in life when they are done serving their sentences.
"Many people who get released from prison struggle to live life when they go out there. Their families and friends disown them, and they therefore end up committing more crimes and get arrested." said Mr. F. K Nyathi of the department of correctional services in Pretoria.
"Inmates while inside of prison, do many different type of jobs, ranging from cooking,cleaning, to doing the garden and he we have decided to pay them for their hard work" Mr. Nyathi said.
It was revealed that the salaries will range from R3000 to R10000 depending on the job an inmate is doing. A prisoner will also be entitled to a bonus when they are done serving time.
The department also revealed that it will in the near future consider offering bursaries to inmates willing to further their studies Colleges and Universities.

Recreational Firearms Community
of Saskatchewan
|Greg Illerbrun-Bringing You The Facts
I'm sure most of you have heard about the 10 year old that was abducted in Alberta last week. The perpetrator, a known pedophile, was stopped for speeding during his getaway.
The RCMP officer issued him a speeding ticket and let him and the youth go. I'm sure you are all comforted to know that while he was stopped, the police did an automatic check to see if he was a legal firearm owner, of course it came back negative as a pedophile would never get a firearms license. That's the beauty of our now two billion dollar Liberal Gun Control scheme; it only tracks the people who have already deemed to be no threat to society. Wouldn't it make more sense to track the known criminals, have a sex offender registry and have the police computers do an automatic scan for that? I guess I must have been in a different line up when they handed out the common sense brain cells! Why the Chiefs of Police and the opposition parties continue to support this ludicrous scheme with our tax dollars is beyond me. If you agree, let your MP know how you feel.
Meanwhile it appears that the Chiefs of Police are living up to their threat to get even with firearm owners for pushing to get rid of the long gun registry. We have been told that the chiefs have told their men to step up enforcement and indications are that this is happening, including pushing regulations on gun show hosts. Not only did the chiefs get involved politically during the debate where they do not belong, they are now abusing their powers out of spite! I will qualify that by saying that any piece of legislation that still needs to have a whipped vote after more than 15 years on the books clearly shouldn't be law in a democratic society! The only solution I see to this issue is to move towards provincial police forces that answer to the province so we can have policing that reflects the will of the people. Police who answer to Ottawa will never be a good thing because and you've heard it here before "The only good thing that comes out of the east is the sun!"
The pendulum may be swinging slightly back to the right as the Conservative government is now proposing a law to protect citizens who have been making citizen's arrests and using limited force to protect their property. As it stands now, police and prosecutors are all too quick to charge the victim with offences for this, which is totally unjustified.
We have been told that Saskatchewan Justice is willing to meet with us to discuss our issues - which means we need the province to honor its commitment to opt out of enforcement and administration of the Liberal Gun Control law C-68.
I'll keep you posted as we go.
As usual

The majority (59 per cent) of young patients think Britain's withdrawal from the European Union will have a negative impact on the NHS, compared to just 28 per cent of older patients, according to the report by health comms agency Pegasus.
It outlines the results of a poll of 500 members of Generation Z, defined as those aged 16-23, and 500 Baby Boomers, those aged 54-72, which was carried out in October 2018.
Both demographic groups are concerned about the long-term outlook for the NHS, with 69 per cent of Generation Zs and 72 per cent of Baby Boomers saying they are worried about its future.
A major difference between the generations is in the use of technology to deal with health issues.
Younger patients are twice as likely to Google their symptoms before going to see a doctor, with six out of 10 doing this.
They are also seven times more likely to use social media for questions about their health.
The report states: "Generation Z are more likely to turn to the internet for health questions – 29% use social media for health advice and information compared to 4% of Baby Boomers."
But it warns that the internet is "also the place many commentators feel is creating many psychological and emotional health problems in the first place".
Almost nine out of 10 Generation Z's are exposed to fitness or beauty influencers on social channels, and the report says: "Worryingly, this younger generation is more negatively impacted by these types of images than older generations."
Almost half (48 per cent) feel sad they don't look like the images they see on social media platforms, compared to 15 per cent of Baby Boomers.
But while such images "can be damaging for this generation's mental wellbeing, they may also promote improved physical wellbeing", according to the report.
"Almost a third of Gen Zs (32%) indicate that they try to stay fit and healthy so they can look like the people in these types of images."
Another finding reveals ignorance surrounding the pharmaceutical industry, with patients having a "limited understanding of what pharmaceutical companies do" and almost half (46 per cent) of Generation Zs thinking that pharma companies are more interested in making profit than the wellbeing of those who use their medication.
This "presents the industry with an opportunity to educate and communicate their work", according to the report's authors.

Looking for a great new SUV in Arizona? Look no further than the 2019 Honda CR-V, one of the most awarded crossovers of the year. The CR-V stands out in the crowded field of compact SUVs by bringing together form and function in a beautifully stylish way. This incredibly popular SUV has been wowing drivers since its debut in 1997, and in 2019, the Honda CR-V has a gorgeous design that is turning heads all over Phoenix. If you're shopping for a compact SUV, this one is not to be missed. Here's why.
The CR-V is as attractive as it is capable, and the experts have taken notice. This vehicle is packed with technology and features that have earned it numerous awards and accolades. U.S. News and World Report named Honda the "Best SUV Brand of 2019," Kelley Blue Book named the 2019 CR-V a "Best Buy" in the Compact SUV category, and it was named "Editor's Choice: Best SUV" by Edmunds. Even the sticklers at Motor Trend gave the CR-V glowing marks and a near-perfect 4.5-star rating.
Enticing Exterior
The first thing you'll notice about the 2019 Honda CR-V is the redesigned exterior. It starts in front with distinctive headlights, aggressive front fascia, and an active shutter grille. The aerodynamic lines mix sport and sophistication in a modern way. In the rear, the CRV has a wide stance and dual chrome-tipped exhaust. Unique, angular taillights set this compact SUV apart from the crowd. Plus, and available power liftgate raises and lowers with just the touch of a button, or get hands-free operation on Touring.
Interior for Kings
Inside the cabin of the 2019 Honda CR-V, you'll find incredible roominess and comfort. Inside the cabin, the available 7-inch touch screen display handles navigation, phone, music, and other helpful apps. Unlike the RAV 4, the CRV offers seamless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration, and you can easily charge all your devices with convenient front and available rear USB ports. Your playlists sound amazing on the 330-watt premium audio system, featuring 9 speakers and a subwoofer.
Dual Zone climate control is standard to keep all 5 passengers comfortable, and EX-L and Touring feature a sumptuous leather interior. The 12-way power adjustable driver's seat on EX and above puts you firmly in control. In back, the CR-V features a split 60/40, easy-folding rear seat that creates an incredible amount of flat-floor cargo space when folded down.
Packed with Safety Technology
Like every Honda model, the 2019 CR-V has a 5-star safety rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). In addition, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) gave the 2019 CRV a Top Safety Pick rating. This award-winning compact SUV comes with a full range of Honda Sensing safety features, including Blind Spot Information (BSI) with Cross Traffic Monitor that adds an extra level of security for you and your family. The CR-V also features a Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) and a Road Departure Mitigation System (RDMS).
Great Performance
The CR-V offers drivers a satisfying experience. Under the hood of the 2019 Honda CR-V is a 190-horsepower engine that offers plenty of get-up-and-go in the city or on the highway. It offers more torque than the Nissan Rogue at 180 pound-feet, and it's mated to an efficient CRV transmission. Available sport mode makes the drive even more thrilling, and the standard Eco Assist™ system is designed to help you drive more efficiently and reduce your carbon footprint. The available real-time all-wheel drive system means you're secure no matter what the terrain.
Build a 2019 CR-V at Your Phoenix Valley Honda Dealers
The CR-V is well known for its reliability, and in 2019, the Honda CR-V brings a whole lot more to the table. Between its incredible awards, technology-packed and spacious interior, and efficient performance, this compact SUV needs to be at the top of your list.
To learn more about the new CR-V or to schedule a test drive in Arizona, contact your Valley Honda Dealers location near Phoenix. We have the 2019 CR-V for sale today, as well as amazing new CR-V lease offers and finance deals available, so you and your family can save trunkloads on your next SUV!

Posted by Julie Hiipakka and Jeff Mike on May 15, 2019.
We recently attended Deloitte's 2019 Chief Learning Officer Forum, where a number of learning leaders discussed the idea of feeling "safe" and its impact on workers. One participant made a great point: the very people we rely on to implement change in our organizations—middle managers—often experience heavy financial burdens due to aging parents, children's college tuition, and/or debts carried over from past mortgages or higher education. A need for financial safety, he posited, might prevent the very experimentation and agility we want from our workers. Their need for job security could override any desire to take risks, innovate, or experiment in the flow of work.1 (A recent Deloitte survey found that financial topics like job security, retirement, and debt are among top employee stressors. Our colleague Pete DeBellis wrote on how to address this via a rewards strategy.)2

Green Spot Chateau Montelena Single Pot Still
Single Pot Still
Spot Whiskey // Ireland
This bottling marks the second release in the Wine Geese series following their Château Léoville Barton bottling which was released in 2015. This single pot still whiskey matures initially in ex-bourbon and sherry casks. The whiskey finishes its maturation in former zinfandel wine barrels from Chateau Montelena located in Napa Valley, California. This whiskey is non chill-filtered and bottled at 46% ABV.
Single Pot StillProduced in Ireland from a mash of unmalted and malted barley (30% each required) from one distillery. Traditionally, it is distilled three times in a pot still. Up to 5% of other grains allowed. Must be aged for at least three years.
Cask Typeex-bourbon, ex-sherry, finished in ex-zinfandel wine casks
Tasting Notes
"The nose is deliciously sweet and zesty with buttery vanilla, lemon meringue, red berries, fresh apples and pot still spices. On the palate, it's fairly easy-drinking, drier, boasting notes of raspberry, apple pie, brioche, almonds, orange and spices. The finish is medium and dry with pepper and wine tannins. Overall, a very nice twist on the Green Spot, combining the sweetness, spiciness and fruitiness of the classic Green Spot with the red berries and dry profile of the wine cask in a richer, more complex dram."

We'll be celebrating 10 years of seafood, music and fun at the 10th Annual Riverfest Seafood Festival in Ormond Beach on Nov. 17 & 18. The Festival takes over Rockefeller Gardens and Fortunato Park for a jam-packed weekend of exciting activities for the whole family.
This year we'll feature more food than ever before, with new vendors joining old favorites on the Casements grounds. From fried shrimp to fresh fish tacos, poke bowls to authentic Philly cheesesteaks there's something for even the pickiest eater. Wash it down with a cold draft beer or a chilled soda from our beer garden. Savor some deep-fried oreos, sweet & salty kettle corn or gourmet cotton candy as you wander.
Don't want to leave the house on a football weekend? You can have the best of both worlds at our new outdoor pub hosted by Grind Gastropub and Kona Tiki Bar and featuring satellite TVs streaming the afternoon's best games.
The festival is about much more than food, however. Held right along Ormond's sparkling riverfront, the event features two days of water activities, a 5K fun race on Sunday, a wildly popular kid's fishing clinic, chef demonstrations, a kids' zone, vendors and, of course, great music.
This year the Riverfest runs Saturday, November 17 from 10 am – 6 pm and Sunday, November 18 from 10 am – 4 pm. Free admission and free parking make it easy to enjoy the great variety of planned activities in both riverfront parks. A free shuttle service from the City Hall parking lot makes parking even easier. Take a look at the website for parking locations.
Head down by the bridge for kids' crafts and games, bungees, water balls, bounce houses and face painting. Become a pirate for the day as you mingle with pirate characters, climb on the great big pirate ship, and play a little Pirate's Cove mini-golf. Of course, our popular Kid Fish fishing clinic will be back this year- sponsored by Fish Florida and Innovative Bookkeeping. Kids from 4-12 can become little anglers and take home one of our 300 free fishing poles while supplies last.
Like boats and water play? Head to Fortunato Park for kayaks, , paddle boards and more. Check out our boat and grown up "toy" displays. Grab a ride on the Seabreecher and watch the seaplane landings.
Check our Facebook event page for updated schedules of music, events and chef demos.

Institution name
Arizona State University
Arizona; Online
Institutional Profile
Large (over 15,000)
Why did your institution join the Diversity Abroad Network?
Arizona State University (ASU) joined the Diversity Abroad Network because as an institution, we have a commitment to representation and inclusion is prevalent in the university's Diversity Plan. In addition, ASU is committed to excellence, access and impact in everything that it does. Currently, the Study Abroad Office is in the middle of a five-year strategic plan and one of our eight "Strategies for Growth" is "increase the number of underrepresented students going abroad." Due to this strategy, we felt we have been sought out additional resources to help the office make study abroad more accessible to ASU's diverse student population and the Diversity Abroad Network has been instrumental in supporting us and providing invaluable tools for both our students and faculty.
How long has your organization/institution been a member?
2 years
What Diversity Network resource has been most useful for you and your colleagues in advancing diversity & inclusive excellence in global education?
We have thoroughly enjoyed the webinars that the Diversity Abroad Network has provided to our staff and colleagues. We also had the privilege of spending a day with Diversity Abroad's Founder and President, Andrew Gordon, in which he helped us take a deeper look at how we can continually improve upon our services for underrepresented students as it relates to study abroad resources. Our advising teams also utilize the country diversity climate notes and the diversity/inclusion advising manuals. Lastly, we are going to complete the Access, Inclusion, Diversity (AID) Roadmap this fall 2016 semester.
How has membership with the Diversity Network helped your institution make global education more accessible to students from diverse and underrepresented backgrounds?
As members, we attended our first Diversity Abroad Conference in 2015 and left the conference with a list of 30 ideas that we heard from other institutions focusing in on diversity and inclusion. From that list, we have already implemented many of the ideas, and are working on the others. For example, our website now contains material for the following populations of students who are considering study abroad: Online student, First-Generation students, GI-Bill Benefit recipients, International Students, LGBTQIA students, Non-Traditional students, Racial & Ethnic Minority students, Student Athletes and Students with Disabilities.
Please describe any innovative initiatives related to diversity and inclusion in global education that your institution is currently undertaking.
Here are a few innovative initiatives that we have developed over the last couple of years related to diversity and inclusion.
1. ASU Planning Scholars: The ASU Study Abroad Planning Scholarship provides first-generation college students with the opportunity to also be the first to study abroad by reducing the financial barrier that may prevent some students from considering study abroad. If an ASU student receives the Planning Scholarship, the student will have five (5) semesters to use it after his/her freshman year. A team of two professional staff from the ASU Study Abroad Office facilitate 2-3 workshops per semester for the recipients and are the point of contacts from our office. We just awarded 60 scholarships to cohort
2. Cohort 1 (awarded in July 2015) has already experienced a lot of success with 1/2 of the recipients already studying abroad since receiving their scholarship. We designed a new position for the Study Abroad Office - Management Intern for Diversity and Inclusion - and had it funded starting in academic year 2015-2016. The same intern is now on year two with us and her entire 20 hours a week is focused on activities and initiatives related to diversity matters. She presents to underrepresented study abroad student populations about study abroad, makes sure that our marketing materials include all students, works to educate the Study Abroad Office professional staff on offices on our campuses that work with underrepresented student populations and so much more.

Marma therapy is the oldest form of reflexology that originated in India. It has its roots in Kerala, a State in the Southern part of India and was associated with a local martial arts called Kalaripayattu. This form of martial arts has been used since the ancient times when the warriors used to defend the kingdom in a hand-to-hand combat. Excelling in this combat was the mark of a great warrior. These warriors used their knowledge through the hand-to-hand combat to disable or kill an opponent. "Marma" comes from the Sanskrit "Mru", which means "To Kill". Interestingly, while the warriors used this art as a defence technique, the physicians used the same points to heal an injured warrior.
What are the Marma points?
Did you know that there are 107 points in the body which are considered to be access points to body, mind and consciousness? Marma points are not just a connection of tissue and fluids, they are points of the vital life force in one's body. When there is an imbalance within the body that restricts the free-flowing movement of energy in the body, it results in a stagnation that further gives rise to various physical discomforts and illness.
How does the marma massage help?
Marma massages are used as a form of preventive medicine. Ancient Ayurveda texts describe how marma massages have been used to allow the body to function normally. When done the right way, the massage using the marma technique can isolate and clean the marma points by increasing the blood flow so that the body can function normally. It also helps your body to relax and rejuvenate when the massage is done the right way.
When we touch Marma points we stimulate the body's biochemistry to produce exactly what the body needs to help heal the mind, consciousness and the body.
What happens during the marma massage?
The whole purpose of a marma massage is to cleanse the body of blocked energies ( also known as chi) by pacifying the different doshas in the body. Each of the marma points are known to have receptors that align with the doshas and during the massage, each of marma points are stroked in a specific sequence.
