The Transgender Day of Remembrance is observed in late November in recognition of the 1998 murder of Rita Hester. Rita was a highly visible member of the transgender community in her native Boston, where she worked locally on education around transgender issues. On Saturday, Nov 28, Rita was stabbed 20 times in her apartment. A neighbor called the police, and Rita was rushed to the hospital. She passed away from cardiac arrest only moments after being admitted. Thirteen years later, police have still not found Rita's murderer (or murderers).
In 1999, one year after Rita's murder, advocate and writer Gwendolyn Ann Smith coordinated a vigil in Rita's honor. The vigil commemorated not only Rita, but all who were tragically lost to anti-transgender violence.
In addition to the vigil, Smith launched the Transgender Day of Remembrance website to recognize and remember those whose lives have been lost to anti-transgender violence. The number of those honored on the site has since grown to more than 327 people in the United States alone, with over 300 more from other countries. Organizations throughout the world — from Groupe Activiste Trans in Paris to Human Rights Commission of Tel Aviv in Israel to Diritti in Movimiento in Pescara, Italy — have since taken to recognizing the day. Media coverage of Transgender Day of Remembrance often includes documenting lives lost to violence, as well as the all too frequent dehumanizing harassment and discrimination that members of the transgender community encounter on a regular basis.
Violence toward Members of the Transgender Community
The 2011 Hate Violence Report from the National Coalition of Anti-Violence Projects shows anti-LGBT hate crime murders increased 11% from 2010, in which 27 murders occurred, to 2011, in which 30 murders occurred. Of the victims murdered, 87% were people of color, and 40% were transgender women. Transgender people of color were also 28% more likely to experience physical violence compared to people who were not transgender people of color. Findings from the 'Injustice at Every Turn' report conducted by the National Center for Transgender Equality (NCTE) and the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force showed alarming rates of violence and harassment expreienced by the more than 6,000 transgender repondents across a variety of contexts, including educational settings, at work, in interactions with police and with family members, at homeless shelters, accessing public accommodations, and in jails and prisons. According to the International Transgender Day of Remembrance website, there have been 8 people murdered out of anti-transgender bias during 2011 in the U.S. As murders of transgender people often go unreported, and the identity of transgender murder victims is often misreported, there is no way to know accurate numbers.
At this time, 14 states, the District of Columbia and more than 125 municipalities offer hate crimes protections that are inclusive of sexual orientation and gender identity. After its signing in October 2009, the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act has made it a federal hate crime to assault an individual based on actual or perceived disability, gender, sexual orientation, or gender identity. This landmark legislation both mandates that the FBI track hate crimes based on anti-transgender bias and allows the Justice Department to assist in the prosecution of local hate crimes based on gender identity.
This year the cycle of violence against transgender and gender non-conforming people claimed at least 16 lives nationally, including:
- Diamond Williams (Philadelphia, PA) who was dismembered, and body parts thrown in a field.
- Eyricka Morgan (New Brunswick, NJ) who was stabbed
- Cemia "CeCe" Dove (Cleveland, OH) who was stabbed, tied with a rope to a block of concrete and thrown in pond.
- Islan Nettles (New York City, NY) who was killed by blunt force trauma
- Domonique Newburn (Fontana, CA) who died of multiple stab wounds
These are only some of the names of those whose murders have been reported, and many more incidences of murder and violcne against transgender people go unreported. For more stories of people who have lost their lives to anti-transgender hate violence, visit www.transgenderdor.org.
Story Ideas for Transgender Day of Remembrance
- Call attention to local victims of anti-transgender violence.
- Highlight positive stories of transgender individuals, and the dehumanizing discrimination they have faced in their lives. Highlight statistics from the 'Injustice at Every Turn' report on anti-transgender discrimination. Remind your audience that dehumanization often leads to violence.
- Anti-transgender violence isn't just directed at adults. Statistics from the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) show that in schools, 16.8% of transgender students report being physically assaulted as a result of gender expression, while 32.1% experience physical harassment. Talk with transgender youth about their experiences growing up.
- Contact local LGBT organizations to find out how they plan to observe the Transgender Day of Remembrance. Many universities and high schools, through their Gay-Straight Alliances and other organizations, hold candlelight vigils or other events to recognize the day.
- Produce a feature on local individuals or organizations that are coordinating Transgender Day of Remembrance events and include information about how survivors of violence continue to be active in their communities.
- Follow-up on unsolved local cases of transgender violence or murder to show where the investigation stands.
- Spotlight stories of tragedies that inspired a community response against anti-transgender violence and discrimination. These stories of mobilized community responses to violence often go unreported but can be inspiring on this day of mourning.
Events to Look For
Though candlelight vigils are the most common way that local communities recognize the Transgender Day of Remembrance, events may also include:
- Marches
- Forums and panel discussions with local advocates
- Poetry or spoken word readings
- Art exhibits
- Movie screenings of feature films or documentaries that include transgender characters or subjects
- Representations of the number of transgender people murdered, such as tombstone cutouts, memorials with photographs, or chalk outlines
Connect with local LGBT organizations for a complete listing of events being held throughout your community. View a list of local events. By seeking out such events, you will have an opportunity to connect with local advocates.
Fair, Accurate and Inclusive Coverage
Journalism is key to increasing public awareness and understanding of transgender people and events. Opposing viewpoints on complex issues are, of course, vital to good journalism. However, there is a difference between opposing viewpoints and defamatory rhetoric that exists solely to fuel harassment and discrimination. If opposing viewpoints are necessary for a particular news story on the Transgender Day of Remembrance, please contact organizations or individuals who have a clear stake in the issue from both sides and pair them appropriately.
Sensationalizing anti-transgender violence is disrespectful and degrading to both the victim and the victim's family, and may bias an investigation. Sensitivity to appropriate pronouns, as well as the victim's chosen name, which may be different from the name on that person's legal identification documents, is vital to accurate coverage. When reporting on the life of transgender person lost to violence, seek information from those close to the victim, and not bystanders or neighbors who have no relationship to your subject. Misrepresenting or making jokes about the victim's gender identity sends the message that it is acceptable to demean transgender people. Articles such as the New York Post's August 2011 article "Fireman busted after violently 'beating' tr*nny pal" make light of violence against the transgender community and further dehumanize the victims of this violence.
Like many hate crimes, gender identity-based violence often goes unreported, or is misrepresented due to errors in identifying a victim's gender identity. Include news reports of hate crimes against transgender Americans and other people signaled out for their gender identity and presentation in your coverage.
While this day is a day of mourning and remembrance, it is also a day to reflect on contributions to the community and the power of survival. While commemorating those lost to anti-transgender violence, please also detail the contributions of living transgender people. By highlighting these stories, you will undo some of the dehumanization that has taken place in the media, and in society.

Terminology & Identification
The following guidelines will assist you as you move forward in writing stories about transgender people. Issues surrounding the coverage of transgender people can be complex and sensitive — the utmost care should be taken to avoid defamatory or offensive language in your coverage. More information on defamatory terminology can be found in the Transgender Terminology chapter of the GLAAD Media Reference Guide.
Transgender is an umbrella term for people whose gender identity and/or gender expression differs from the sex they were assigned at birth. The term may include, but is not limited to transsexuals, cross-dressers and other gender non-conforming people. Use the term preferred by the individual. Transgender people may or may not pursue hormone therapy or surgery.
Gender identity is one's internal, personal sense of their gender. For transgender people, their birth-assigned gender and their own internal sense of gender identity are not the same.
Sexual orientation describes an individual's enduring physical, romantic, emotional and/or spiritual attraction to another person. Transgender people can be heterosexual, lesbian, gay or bisexual.
Transsexual is an older term, popularized through medical use and sensational media coverage during the 1950s-60s. Many transgender people prefer the term "transgender" to transsexual, while some transsexual people prefer to use the term to describe themselves. Unlike transgender, transsexual is not an umbrella term, as many transgender people do not identify as transsexual.
Transition includes some or all of the following cultural, legal and medical adjustments: telling one's family, friends and/or co-workers; changing one's name and/or sex on legal documents; hormone therapy; and possibly (though not always) some form of surgery.
Identifying a Transgender Person
- Always use a transgender person's correct name. The correct name for a transgender person is the name that the person goes by. Often transgender people cannot afford a legal name change or are not yet old enough to change their name legally. They should be afforded the same respect for their chosen name as anyone else who lives by a name other than the name they were assigned at birth.
- Ask transgender people which pronoun they would like you to use if you are unsure. A person who identifies as a certain gender, whether or not they have taken hormones or had surgery, should be referred to using the pronouns appropriate for that gender.
- It is never appropriate to put quotation marks around either a transgender person's chosen name or the pronoun that reflects that person's gender identity.

AUGUSTA, Maine (NEWS CENTER) - The problems caused by the Lewiston fires have reached the Maine Legislature, and are prompting complaints by Republicans that Democrats are "playing politics" with the issue.
Lewiston's legislative delegation -- which is all Democratic -- sent a letter to Governor Paul LePage on Monday, asking for money from a contingency fund to help fire victims.
After he toured the fire damage on Tuesday, the Governor told reporters he had no money to give, and suggested the Lewiston delegation should ask House and Senate leaders for money instead. That prompted a press release from Democrats, saying he does have money available. That was followed by a statement from Republicans, accusing Democrats of playing politics with the fires.
On Wednesday, members of the Lewiston delegation told NEWS CENTER they were simply "doing their job" and representing the needs of their constituents.
For his part, Gov. LePage did tell Lewiston city officials on Tuesday to get in touch with him again, once they have a better idea of how much money is needed. The Governor's spokesperson says they might still provide financial help to the city.
The Governor's office also said that there is a private fund for fire victims, managed by the United Way, which has already collected tens of thousands of dollars in donations so far. Meanwhile, in Augusta, Senator Margaret Craven (D-Lewiston) is submitting an emergency bill to provide some state aid to help families with security deposits for new apartments.

MATT MARTIN DILEMMA: A 5th rounder emerging as a keeper; his agent sheds some light to Point Blank
Pat Morris did not really want to speak with me. He's the agent for Matt Martin, a bruising 20-year old power forward and top-10 Islanders prospect who needs to be signed soon. When I spoke with Matt at prospect minicamp, the young man was a bit on edge about this potential stalemate. It's the business side of the NHL, and he understands the fans that may eventually love him cannot relate to him right now.
But I put in a few calls to Morris with the goal of sharing an educated view of both sides of this story. He eventually relented, but was very cautious with his words.
We already know that if Matt Martin is not signed by the end of training camp, he'll play one more season in Sarnia or another town in the Ontario Hockey League. Everyone seems in agreement that Martin will not benefit from another year in the OHL. He needs to begin his pro development in Bridgeport. If Martin is not signed by June 1, 2010, he goes back into the NHL Draft. I could practically feel Morris wincing on the other end of the phone from Toronto at the mere thought. As much as anyone, he wants Martin signed by the team that drafted him.
"The idea of Matt Martin going back into the draft would be inconceivable from the Islanders' point of view," said Morris, "and also from Matt's point of view."
But it could happen. Drafted in the fifth round by the Islanders in 2008, Martin has become a legitimate NHL prospect. Ask just about any scout in the game and he'll tell you the 6-3, 210-pound left wing with a frame to knock opponents around and hands to fight and score some goals has an excellent chance of being a big part of the Islanders' rebuild. The excitable ones hold up Milan Lucic as a comparable, the more cautious ones point to David Clarkson.
My conversation with Morris shed light on what's really up for debate in this negotiation. Do you sign a player based on where he was drafted, or 100% on the quality of the player?
"Both sides have the ability to assess Matt's growth as a player in the year since he was drafted," said Morris. "Garth (Snow) and Ryan (Jankowski) have done an excellent job at the draft the last few years with some picks in the later rounds. But when you attempt to sign a player a full year after he is drafted, it doesn't matter what round he was picked. This isn't a slotting system. The goal is to come to an agreement based only on the quality of the player."
The viewpoint of Morris is a fair one. All that should matter right now is what the Islanders think of Matt Martin as a hockey player in their organization. Same goes for the value Morris believes should be placed on his client. This kind of negotiation happens every day in every walk of life. You try to get what you deserve, and not a penny less. The company gives you what they feel you deserve, and not a penny more. You risk ending up with nothing. The company risks not having you.
In 2007, Atlanta drafted a raw defenseman named Paul Postma in the seventh round. Two years, 37 goals and 136 points with the Calgary Hitmen later, the Thrashers gave Postma the contract of a first-round blue-chipper. Time will tell if they made a wise investment. The Detroit Red Wings have built a consistent contender with contributions from several drafted and developed late-round picks who earned big-buck Entry Level deals.
If you're wondering what's the difference between Martin and prospect Justin DiBenedetto – the high scorer drafted by the Islanders a round later – Martin can go back in the draft. Other than going to Europe, DiBenedetto didn't have any leverage.
The Islanders have to decide what Matt Martin is. They did a good job grabbing him in the fifth round. Now it's like they have to scout him all over again.
Is Martin's upside as a dime-a-dozen tough fourth-liner? Is it as a second or third-line power forward with significant intangibles a la Lucic and Nystrom? Most of all, are the Islanders willing to risk watching Martin thrive on another NHL team? These are the kind of tough business decisions you're faced with when you draft well.
Martin, with the counsel of his agent, also has to make a grown-up decision. Welcome to professional sports, kid.

Final construction details are coming together for Samaritan Summit Village, but theres still much work to be done before the anticipated March 1 opening.
Dale E. Kraybill, vice president of Purcell Construction, Watertown, said the three-floor, 120-bed assisted-living side is complete, loose ends are being finished in the commons area and the four-floor, 168-bed skilled-nursing side has about one weeks worth of construction left.
Its final pieces of wood trim, hanging the last few doors, putting in window screens, and putting in the fire system and communication piece is probably the biggest yet, Mr. Kraybill said.
The 17.1-acre complex at 22691 Summit Drive is a joint construction venture between Purcell and Lecesse Construction, West Henrietta. Bernier, Carr & Associates, Watertown, provides oversight of the project, and RLPS Architects, Lancaster, Pa., is the design firm. GYMO, Watertown, is the project engineer.
Pamela S. Beyor, Bernier, Carr chairwoman, said that while construction of the 230,000-square-foot building is substantially complete, there still is a significant amount of work toward getting the building occupied.
Once furnishings and artwork is installed, then comes mobilization of staff on site, she said. The entire month of February is dedicated to that on-board process.
Samaritan Medical Center spokeswoman Krista A. Kittle said the target date of March 1 depends on state Department of Health certificate approvals.
Were looking at the first three days to occupy skilled nursing, and the last day will be assisted living, Ms. Kittle said.
Transition from Whispering Pines, Mercy Care Center of Northern New York and Samaritan Keep Home, as well as moving some community members who need skilled-nursing or assisted-living services, will happen simultaneously on those days.
While Samaritan will continue to operate Samaritan Keep Home, a 272-bed skilled-nursing facility on the hospitals Washington Street campus, it will close Mercy as Samaritan Summit Village opens. Samaritan is in receivership of Mercy and oversees it through this transition. Whispering Pines, a Jefferson County-owned nursing home that also will close, is managed by Samaritan.
Ms. Kittle said the transition of residents and patients from those facilities to Samaritan Summit Village would not be possible without the help of hundreds of volunteers from community organizations and nonprofit agencies who are moving peoples belongings and helping to set up their new rooms.
Itll make it as seamless to residents as possible, Ms. Kittle said.
Each new resident or patient also must have a clinical assessment within 90 days of being moved to Samaritan Summit Village, to help determine the appropriate level of care needed.
When the facility opens, Ms. Kittle said, the assisted-living component will be 67 percent full and the skilled-nursing component will be 75 percent full.
Throughout the facility, there are warm earth tones on the floors and walls.
The designers are renowned for elder-care designs, Ms. Beyor said. Youll see few spaces here with a clinical feel.
The commons area, which connects the assisted-living and skilled-nursing sides, has a cafe, gift shop, reception area, mailboxes for assisted-living residents, a living area with fireplace, a meditation room and chapel, a physicians suite, an employee break room, general office space, a beauty salon, a morgue and a private dining area with a bar that people may reserve for small parties. A large multipurpose room with a small stage may be used for Samaritan or community events.
In the assisted-living wings, open nursing stations have been replaced by enclosed offices. While the majority of the facility has studio apartments, there are some one-bedroom suites with a small living space. Each floor has a shared dining space that overlooks a fenced-in courtyard, complete with benches and a gazebo.
While one central kitchen prepares food for both skilled-nursing and assisted-living wings, each assisted-living floor has smaller kitchens where residents can use appliances with supervision.
The skilled-nursing wings feature private and semi-private rooms with a shared bathroom. All bathrooms have European-style showers, where there is no tub to step into, creating a completely open and accessible area. Skilled-nursing rooms also will be equipped with hospital beds and locked medicine cabinets, so staff members do not have to travel with a large medicine cart.
Activity rooms and common living spaces, among other features, are on each skilled-nursing floor.
The complex will have 312 employees once it is at full resident and patient capacity. As of Wednesday, 200 people had been hired.
Mercy Administrator Dennis A. Casey has been hired as interim administrator of the skilled-nursing beds until a full-time administrator is hired. Anna M. Patterson, Whispering Pines director, has been hired as administrator for assisted living.
Dr. Collins F. Kellogg, a Watertown internist who has been in a contractual agreement with Samaritan to provide medical care for residents at Mercy since 2011, has been named medical director of the facility.

It appears the Red Sox are leaving no stone unturned as the search for the next PawSox manager remains ongoing. The position has been vacant for nearly a month, yet the organization remains mum on whom Torey Lovullo's successor will be.
As BoSox farm director Mike Hazen explained Thursday, finding the next Pawtucket manager is a decision best not entered into lightly and one that requires a great deal of homework.
"It takes time to work through the situation and get to know the candidates, interviews and decisions like that," Hazen said. "There are internal and external candidates being considered."
Hazen added there remains no specific timetable as to when the next PawSox manager will be announced. With the Winter Meetings on tap beginning Monday in Orlando, the Red Sox may wait until next week to reveal its choice depending on whether the team makes any news on the free agent front.
If the Red Sox do not settle on someone outside of the organization, the top candidate figures to be current Double-A manager Arnie Beyeler, a one-time hitting coach for the PawSox.
Beyeler has managed many of Boston's highly-regarded prospects in recent seasons, the list including Ryan Kalish, Felix Doubront, Daniel Bard, Casey Kelly, Michael Bowden, Jed Lowrie and Clay Buchholz.
Pawtucket is also in the market for a hitting coach after Gerald Perry left to take a similar position with the Oakland Athletics in October.
EXTRA BASES: A reminder that this Saturday is the PawSox' Annual Kids Christmas Party at McCoy Stadium from 11 a.m.-2 p.m. Pitchers Chad Paronto and Rich Hill will be on hand to sign autographs. Game-day tickets for the 2011 season will also go on sale to the general public in-person and also online at pawsox.com beginning Saturday. … The Red Sox and Dusty Brown parted ways Wednesday as the longtime catcher signed a minor-league deal with the Pittsburgh Pirates. Brown was drafted in 2000 under the supervision of then-general manager Dan Duquette and finally made his major-league debut during the 2009 season. Brown was viewed as Boston's No. 3 catcher heading into 2010, but the 28-year-old was out with a broken thumb right around the same time Victor Martinez and Jason Varitek landed on the disabled list. Heading into the 2011 season, Brown was out of minor league options (meaning he could not be sent down to the minors without being removed from the 40-man roster and risk exposure to other teams). … Expect the Red Sox to start announcing their list of minor-league free agents once next week's Rule 5 draft takes place. … Plenty of PawSox players are staying sharp by participating in winter ball. Reddick (.182 batting average), Aaron Bates (.108 in 37 at-bats) and infielder Yamaico Navarro (.261 with four homers) are stationed in the Dominican Republic while 2010 Team MVP Bubba Bell is hitting .290 in Venezuela. Bowden is listed in the Venezuelan Winter League, but has yet to throw a pitch.

But the team needs run production. My guess is he's back in Norfolk working on that at the plate. However, it would take significant injuries to the team's outfield to see him get real playing time in Baltimore.

YIELD: Makes 8 to 10 servings
ACTIVE TIME: 20 min
TOTAL TIME: 2 1/4 hr
IngredientsFor roast
- 1/4 cup (1 oz) bittersweet (agridulce) pimentón de la Vera (smoked Spanish paprika; available at La Tienda; tienda.com)
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- 1 tablespoon ground coriander
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt plus additional for sprinkling
- 1 tablespoon coarsely cracked black pepper
- 1 (5- to 6-lb) center-cut bone-in pork loin rib roast
- 1/4 cup golden raisins
- 1/4 cup dry Sherry
- 1/3 cup red-wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped shallot
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon table salt, or to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, or to taste
- 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil (preferably Spanish)
- 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
Roast pork:
Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 500°F.
Stir together pimentón, cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper. Rub mixture all over pork. (Press lightly so rub adheres; you will have some leftover rub.) Put pork on a metal rack in a roasting pan, rib side down. Roast pork 10 minutes, then reduce heat to 300°F and continue to roast until a meat thermometer inserted diagonally into center registers 140°F, 1 hour 10 minutes to 1 hour 25 minutes more.
Let pork stand, loosely covered with foil, 20 to 25 minutes before carving. (Temperature of meat will rise to about 150°F.)
Make vinaigrette while pork roasts:
Soak raisins in Sherry in a medium bowl, covered, 30 minutes. Add vinegar, shallot, garlic, salt, and pepper, then add oil in a slow stream, whisking until combined. Whisk in parsley just before serving.
Slice pork and serve with vinaigrette and a sprinkling of kosher salt.
Cooks' notes: · Meat rub keeps in an airtight container 1 week. · Vinaigrette (without parsley) can be made 3 hours ahead and kept at room temperature, or 1 day ahead, chilled and covered. Bring to room temperature and whisk in parsley just before serving.

Welcome, lovely readers, to another scintillating edition of What Was She Wearing: Answers! All the delightful details were compiled and written by the terrific interns of WhoWhoWhatWearDaily.com, Allison, Jessica, and Cory.Angelina Jolie
Thanks to her political efforts and social activism (and many other things), Angelina Jolie is an influential figure in Hollywood. Apparently her handbag choices have the power to sway people too, as you are always interested in what she's carrying. Spotted in New York City with her darling daughter, Shiloh, in hand, our readers focused on a different sort of "precious cargo"-Jolie's cozy, hand-knitted tote. The Dublin "24 Hour" Bag is by Gerard Darel and features pompoms and leather straps. ($399, shoprumor.com) The smarties at Urban Outfitters made a similar carryall, the Pom Pom Sweater Bag, available in charcoal, purple, and ivory. ($68, urbanoutfitters.com)
Kelly Ripa
Watching Kelly Ripa has long been a part of our morning routine (Jessica's, specifically), so we are very pleased about her debut on WhoWhatWearDaily.com today. The smart frock Ripa wore to Jessica Seinfeld's book launch party sparked your interest. Curious readers take note; it's Twelfth St. by Cynthia Vincent's Dolman Sleeve Dress in washed-silk. Ripa wore the bright berry option and it's also available in bright blue and graphite. ($216, shopbop.com) Also, her shoes are Stella McCartney's Patent Piped Pumps in black patent leather-faux leather, of course. ($595, intermixonline.com)
Rachel Bilson
Rachel Bilson makes black-and-white anything but boring. Our readers wrote in lusting after the two-tone pumps and coordinating black bag and cardigan she recently wore on the set of Chuck. Her bi-color mary-janes are from Marc by Marc Jacobs and are a combination of white patent and black leather, They're are also available in navy leather with a black patent toe. ($450, shopbop.com) She topped off her ivory dress with a black pointelle cardigan by Juicy Couture, available in black or angel-a nice cream color. ($198, nordstrom.com) Rachel carried the quilted Be & D Small Charlize Satchel in black with black leather handles; it's also available in cream with black leather handles. ($1,190, neimanmarcus.com)
Katherine Heigl
Shortly after her recent Emmy win for best supporting actress, we received a burst of emails about Katherine Heigl's clothes, particularly the outfit she wore to a lunch at The Ivy in Los Angeles. The striped jersey cardigan from Juicy Couture features large gold buttons and is available in heather with navy stripes. ($278, neimanmarcus.com) Keeping it casual, Katherine paired her cardigan with some Tory Burch flats in leopard print. ($225, saksfifthavenue.com) If only her natural glow came bottled so we could click-and-purchase it too.

The Middlebury experience extends far beyond its main campus in central Vermont.
Students, faculty and visiting scholars come here from dozens of countries and many take advantage of the multitude of international opportunities we provide.
The Rohatyn Center for Global Affairs is a hub of global activity. Students can choose from two popular undergraduate programs — International and Global Studies and International Politics and Economics — or integrate an international focus into the traditional academic departments.
International students make up more than 10% of the undergraduate population. International Student & Scholar Services (ISSS) makes it possible for our international faculty, staff and students to work or study in Middlebury's many programs. ISSS provides support to our international population during their transitions to and from campus as well as throughout their programs.
In summer, the internationally recognized Language Schools transform the campus into an immense multilingual community. Languages of study include Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Hebrew, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish.
Undergraduates can study these same 10 languages during the academic year, and also take advantage of Middlebury's C.V. Starr Schools Abroad, located in 16 countries and 37 cities. Students abroad immerse themselves in a country's culture, living, learning and completing their entire curriculum in the language of their host country. Undergraduates can pursue study abroad opportunities in other high quality programs and universities as well, and Middlebury also provides graduate study options abroad.
The Middlebury Institute of International Studies at Monterey (MIIS), which became a graduate school of Middlebury College in July 2010, offers graduate programs in international policy and management, and translation, interpretation, and language education along with a wide range of options for learning English and other languages. Middlebury undergraduates have a number of opportunities to study away at MIIS, and may enroll in an integrated degree to earn both a BA and an MA in five years.
One of our most recent initiatives is the Middlebury-Monterey Language Academy, which offers full-immersion language study to students in grades 7-12.

The Air Force appears to be on an intense crusade to sanitize religious content from its training courses. As reported by The New American, in late July the Air Force suspended a course entitled "Christian Just War Theory" after a group of missile launch officers complained to the Military Religious Freedom Foundation that the ethics course included the Bible and other Christian-themed material. Barely three weeks after the original incident, another Air Force instructor forwarded Power Point slides from a second class to the secularist watchdog group, complaining about that course's Christian content.
CNN reported that in a lesson "designed to teach the Air Force's core values to ROTC cadets, Christian beliefs such as the Ten Commandments, the Sermon on the Mount, and the Golden Rule are used as examples of ethical values...." According to CNN, an ROTC instructor brought his complaint to the Military Religious Freedom Foundation after seeing a report on the original complaint brought by the missile officers. "I felt extremely uncomfortable briefing some of these slides, deleted them, and added what I felt were more relevant examples," the anonymous ROTC instructor wrote in an e-mail to the secularist group.

Women's basketball signs five for 2011-12 season
Requires Adobe Flash
Requires Adobe Flash
Frank Bennett
Tuesday, April 26, 2011
The Lady Bisons are preparing to welcome a large recruiting class of five new freshmen who will join the program in the fall.
Coming off a 9-21 season, Lipscomb faces the challenge of replacing three seniors from last year's team. Four-year contributors Miaca Bowman and Valerie Bronson along with Lipscomb's second all-time NCAA scorer Jenna Bartsokas will not be replaced easily, but head coach Frank Bennett said he was excited about the group of newcomers.
"I think we have a little bit more of an athletic class coming in," Bennett said. "As far as quickness and speed and jumping ability. We also have some post players that I think will be a little more physical."
Jana Wright, Kateca Favors, Erika Thornsberry, Shanice Burnette, and Sasha Robinson make up the incoming class of freshmen. The group includes two guards in Wright and Burnette, along with three forwards Favors, Thornsberry and Robinson.
Wright is a 5-7 point guard from Miami, Fla. who played at Norland high school. Wright was selected to the All Dade County first team as a junior.
"Jana is a stronger guard and a pretty athletic guard," Bennett said. "She is fast with the ball and probably best right now at taking the ball to the basket. She is improving as a three-point shooter. I think that her strength will make her a good fit for playing against Atlantic Sun guards and the physical play."
Favors is a 5-11 forward from Douglasville, Ga. She is the first basketball player from Alexander High School to ever sign with a Division I University.
"Kateca played on the same AAU team as O'Neisha Smith who will be a sophomore on our current team," Bennett said. "She is very athletic and can grab the rim with two hands when she jumps. She actually got a tip dunk in a game one time. When the ball came off the back board, she caught it above the rim and pushed it through."
Thornsberry was a four-year starter at St. Mary's High School in Ohio. During the 2009-10 season, she was named 1st Team All Western Buckeye League and 1st Team All District Player 2010.
"Erika Thornsberry is about a 6-1 or 6'2 post player," Bennett said. "She is a versatile post player who plays well inside and out. She is not afraid to bang down in the low post and she can also shoot the three point shot. She is a good passer and can run the floor well."
Burnette is the lone Tennessean on this year's class. She played at Franklin County High School in Winchester, Tenn. Burnette is a 5-10 guard who will add depth at the shooting guard position.
"Shanice is a very skilled offensive player," Bennett said. "In high school she could play anywhere from the one to four positions. She is able to shoot from outside and she can also put it on the floor. I think her versatility will really be a benefit, and she has the quickness to guard people as well."
Robinson is the final signee the Lady Bisons acquired for the upcoming season. She is a 6-1 post player from St. Francis High School near Marietta, Ga.
"Sasha was our only pickup in the April signing period," Bennett said. "She has a great basketball build. She can run the floor and has some strength to bang in the low post. We are looking forward to her opportunity to develop as a good post player."
Overall, next year's squad will consist of five freshmen, four sophomores, three juniors, and three seniors. The Lady Bisons will need contributions from everyone next season as they seek to make up for the losses of Bowman, Bronson and Bartsokas who accounted for 37 percent of last year's scoring.
Bowman and Bartsokas provided much of the guard play for the last four seasons. Bennett said he thought finding guards to step up and fill that void would be crucial to next year's success.
"We think Haley Nelson (sophomore) and Jana Wright can provide the point play," Bennett said. "We will have a big drop in experience, but we feel like they will be able to meet the challenge and do the job."
Since the 2007-08 season, 34 out of the 51 players who have made up Lipscomb's active roster have been from the state of Tennessee (66 percent). However, this year's class is comprised of two players from Georgia, one Florida native, one Ohio native, and only one Tennessean.
"Recruiting is never an exact science," Bennett said. "This year it just turned out that there were more out of state than usual."
With players like junior guard Morgan Faulkner and senior forward Leah McAlister coming back from injuries that forced them to miss games last season, Bennett hopes next year's team will be deep with talent.
"We will have a little more depth next year with these five and the returning players," Bennett said. "There will be competition in practice that should help us. I think they will be a great addition to our program."

|Written by Lauren Ohnesorge
|Monday, 18 June 2007 20:00
Today at 5 in Sugar Mountain, last month's decision by Judge James Downs is on the agenda.
Downs decided the forced annexation of several areas around the Village of Sugar Mountain was unlawful. Tonight's town council meeting may answer the question on the petitioners' minds. Will the Village file an appeal? Village Manager David Lane says its impossible to predict what the council will do..
Lane told us last month he felt the Village would file an appeal. The public is encouraged to attend the meeting, which will be held in the Village Chambers.

I took advantage of the warmer weather to put up our outside lights. Usually I let my husband do it, but since the weather was supposed to turn bad again, I decided to take it on.
I had heard that the new blow-up yard decorations were the best new thing to come out for Christmas decorations since the icicle lights. Well I hope they are easier to deal with than my icicle lights are.
My husband took time last year to carefully wind them up on a board to make them easy to put up. However, since these things are not a straight strand, but intersections of assorted strands they still tangled up like a five year old's shoe lace.
I found that if I didn't get the gutter clip securely pushed into place, it could pop off and fly higher than the space shuttle. Leaning sideways on a ladder can result in sudden and violent crashing to the earth, just like it warns on the label on the side of the device. Juniper shrubs can nicely break a fall.
Apparently there are well over 10 different miniature bulb designs on the market at any given time. Two boxes of identical light strands do not necessarily have interchangeable bulbs. I do not have a single strand that matches another so when one light goes missing, I will have to replace the whole strand.
It is really frustrating when all the bulbs are there and appear to be intact and the strand does not light. It mostly happens when you have a strand that you have painstakingly wound around and through something in an attempt to be creative. Taking them back off will not be simple so you get sucked into wiggling each and every bulb trying in vain to figure out which is the loose one.
I tried to put up the garage lights by hanging off the edge of the roof, but since I'm scared of heights I couldn't get any closer that two feet from the edge of my roof, so instead I had to climb up the extension ladder. After falling off the step ladder I decided not to reach and had to move the ladder every foot to make sure I didn't turf it in front of the paper boy, who as he delivered my paper, looked like he was ready to dial 911 to report a pending disaster.
The last thing I want to know is why my icicle lights don't hang down nice and neat like all my neighbors do? My strands point out and up and sideways. I have only spotted one other person in Price that has goofy ones like mine.
Well the lights are up and most of them work. I am contemplating putting up some yellow police tape to keep people away from them. One wrong touch and they can all quit working.
Only 12 more days to worry about such nonsense.

AKWESANE - An Akwesasne woman has been sentenced to six months in the custody of the U.S. Bureau of Prisons for her role in smuggling oxycodone through the St. Regis Mohawk Reservation.
Donna Benedict, 34, formerly known as Donna Lazore, Cornwall Island, Ont.,was also sentenced Friday in U.S. District Court, Utica, to three years probation for a December 2010 guilty plea to conspiracy to possess with the intent to distribute and distribution of oxycodone.
Her husband, Nathan Benedict, 34, was sentenced Aug. 12 to 37 months in federal custody for a March 2011 guilty plea to conspiracy to possess with the intent to distribute and to distribute a controlled substance. He also was ordered to undergo an additional three years of supervision upon his release.
According to a plea agreement filed with the court, the Benedicts smuggled large quantities of the drug from Canada into the United States through the reservation between July and September 2010.
The agreement states that the Benedicts obtained oxycodone from a source in Canada and resold the drug to others on the reservation and in Franklin County, with the others in turn reselling the drugs.
Sometime in August 2010, a customer of the organization contacted Mrs. Benedict by text message and ordered 80 tablets of oxycodone, which Mr. Benedict was able to obtain from his source in Canada. The Benedicts then met with the individual and sold the drugs for about $4,000. According to court documents, the tablets sell on the street for about $75 to $100 each. The Benedicts also sold an individual 200 tablets in September 2010, according to the plea agreement.
Three men who purchased oxycodone from the Benedicts have also entered guilty pleas to the conspiracy.
Shane Duston, 23, Fort Covington; Neal Lauzon, 30, Plattsburgh; and Anthony King, age and address not available; have been sentenced to an unspecified amount of time served in custody and ordered to undergo three years of supervised release.

The new Museum of Mathematics opens in Manhattan
On Saturday morning, Glen Whitney of St. James expects to feel like Willy Wonka on the day the fictional candy-maker opened the doors of his chocolate factory for the first time to a group of gobsmacked children in "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory."
Whitney is scheduled to throw open the doors to his long-awaited Museum of Mathematics in Manhattan, welcoming children to be just as astonished by more than 30 interactive exhibits over two floors at 11 E. 26th St. in midtown.
The target age for the museum is fourth through eighth grades, though the exhibits have more advanced explanations for older visitors. School classes can also take field trips to the museum; interested teachers should write to email@example.com.
Here are five of the exhibits visitors will experience on a visit to the museum. --Beth Whitehouse

LEWISTON, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- The Centers for Disease Control is reporting 41 states with widespread influenza outbreaks, and Maine is one of them.
The CDC's latest report shows a spike in influenza like illnesses in the last recorded week, ending on Dec. 29.
Doctors in Maine are seeing the same kind of spike in their emergency rooms, with Lewiston's St. Mary's Hospital averaging 20-25 suspected influenza patients each day, for the last week.
"We've seen so many cases, that we've actually run out of test kits," said Dr. Joan Flint, an emergency room physician at St. Mary's.
She said the hospital received a new shipment of the kits Friday, and she expects to keep using them quickly.
"This year, we're seeing a lot of patients that didn't get vaccinated," said Dr. Flint.
She, and other doctors are urging people to get flu shots, available at most drug stores.
"It is the wisest thing that people can do," said Dr. Imad Durra, an Infectious Disease Specialist at Central Maine Medical Center in Lewiston.
He said this year's flu season started several weeks earlier than usual, and has led to more hospital visits.
One reason, he suspects, is because of the reemergence of an old strain of the flu: H3N2.
In recent years, the prevalent strain has been H1N1 -- so it's possible that many people are lacking immunity to the old H3N2 strain.
Doctors say symptoms of influenza include fever, achy muscles, and rapid onset of sickness.
Young children and the elderly are especially vulnerable. Doctors advise people to seek medical attention -- and at the very least, stay home.

Midwest Living Review
From the rotating orb on the roof to the photos from space on the walls to the circle motif on the carpet, the Moonrise Hotel takes its retro lunar theme seriously -- and that makes it seriously cool. It's a must if you're looking for a place to stay after catching a concert at The Pageant or Blueberry Hill. Open since spring 2009, this seven-story, 120-room boutique inn puts a contemporary twist on mid-20th century dcor. They lovingly mix the furniture of Charles Eames (a St. Louis native), Andy Warhol-style paintings, earth-tone colors and green bamboo walls to produce an effect that's both unique and inviting. Hotel amenities are strictly 21st century. Spacious rooms feature 32-inch plasma TVs, iPod docking stations and glass-encased showers with rain showerheads and are stylishly outfitted, with more moon art and sleek furnishings. The Eclipse restaurant offers upscale dining in an atmosphere that pays homage to Buck Rogers and 1950s robots. And if you're looking for a view of the moon, both manmade and the real deal, have a drink at the Moonrise Rooftop Terrace. There's plenty of free parking to the rear of the building, or opt for valet service.

The Reaper had recognized the 75th anniversary of publication under the guidance of the Fuellenbach family in March.

Funeral services for Fuellenbach are pending, and will be made available along with his complete obituary at www.richfieldreaper.com.

Cox Buying Guides: Headphones
You've just downloaded Jay-Z and Kanye West's new album onto your MP3 player. According to all the critics, you're now going to enjoy the listening experience of the year, but to help make that happen, you're going to need a quality set of headphones. Sure, there are lots to choose from, but keep one important thing in mind: Not all headphones are created equal.
Headphones come in all styles, shapes and sizes, each one built for a specific listening experience and targeted at a certain audience. With all this choice, it can be a bit overwhelming to find the right pair for you – a set that provides a quality listening experience and are comfortable to wear. To help you with your headphone shopping, we're going to provide a breakdown of the different types of headsets available today.
Earphones, or earbuds, are most commonly used with MP3 players. The most basic buds – think of the ones handed out on air flights – are compact, lightweight and relatively inexpensive, but also provide poor to average sound quality at best. The higher priced buds provide better sound performance, and in some models, noise blocking.
Over the ear stereo headphones are most commonly used for at-home listening. Generally, headphones cost more than earphones and offer better quality of sound, and they block outside sound quite well. Consider comfort if you intend to wear them for extended listening times.
Noise-Canceling Headphones
These are a good choice for users who want to enjoy music in busy or loud areas without having to turn up the volume. Noise-canceling headphones help block out outside noise, allowing you to enjoy your music at comfortable levels. Comparatively expensive, yes, but they do offer an exceptional listening experience.
Wireless Headphones
Wireless headphones are convenient for the gym, walking to work or anytime you're on the go, but the sound quality in the lower-priced sets can, at times, be very poor. There are sets available that offer an excellent sound experience, but generally are quite expensive.

Creative Gardening
May 21, 2012 at
After a relatively mild winter, springtime in Columbus looks to be quickly on its way. I love the spring: the warmer weather, the baby animals, lighter clothes and jackets and, of course, the green sprouts of new plants. While my thumb is only somewhat green, I do love to garden! Being able to grow and harvest my own vegetables and flowers just brings me so much joy. I also think gardening is a great family activity; between the planting, weeding, composting, mulching, watering, and harvesting there is plenty for adults and children to do together. And who doesn't love the excitement and anticipation of checking the plants daily to watch them pop up out of the ground and turn into beautiful flowers or tasty food?
One of the things I love about gardening is it's so versatile; anyone can grow a garden. All you need is some dirt, seeds, water, sunlight and voila! The plants do the rest on their own. Even if you have a tiny yard, porch, patio, or even just a windowsill, you can still grow a garden with just a little extra planning and creativity. If you've never tried to grow a garden before, I encourage you and your family to give it a try. Stop by your local garden center (I like Straders and Oakland Park Nursery, but I also often shop at Home Depot or Lowe's) and ask the nursery staff for their recommendations based on your gardening availability. I've found that most peppers, tomatoes, herbs, bulb flowers, wildflowers, and perennials are fairly easy to grow, even in pots. For those of you who are more experienced gardeners, I encourage you to try growing something new this year. I think I'm finally going to try my hand at some beans and potatoes, which I'm really excited about. If you have any helpful tips, please let me know.
If you're really pressed for space, you can even try guerrilla gardening with projects such as seed bombs. We had a lot of fun creating seed bombs during the March 1st Saturdays. This great project was led by 1st Saturdays Instructor Renee Zamora. Here's directions to create your own seed bombs.
There are also many blogs and websites devoted to gardening, some of which I've listed here for you to check out:

BUFFALO, N.Y. - Kaleida Health says that a plan to locate a veterinary hospital in the former Millard Fillmore Gates Circle Hospital complex has fallen through.
A new request for proposal will be sent out early next week to local and national developers to start the process of finding a qualified developer all over.
Kaleida says the big reason the project will not move forward is because the developer wasn't able to bring a veterinary school here from the Caribbean as planned. That means several hundred students who were supposed to work and study here will not come here.
"At this point, we are open to anything, that's suitable for the neighborhood, that's suitable for the community, if it's demolition, if its partial rehabilitation, if its housing if, it's retail," said Michael Hughes, the vice president and CEO at Kaleida Health.
Last year, Chason Affiity was awarded development rights for the hospital site. Kaleida Health closed the hospital in March 2012. As we reported Friday night, a source told 2 On Your Side's Scott Levin that the veterinary hospital, which was key to the project, would not commit to locating in Buffalo.
In a statement released early Saturday, Kaleida President and CEO James R. Kaskie said: "We, as a community, had a wonderful opportunity to bring an exciting project to Buffalo and Western New York. And that was a fully functioning veterinary school. The entire community rallied to help make this a reality. We learned so much through this process and are most proud of our effort to find a solution for the reuse of the campus. But now we must move on, regroup, and start an expedited process to award the development rights to a qualified developer."
Kaleida said that a project advisory committee led by former Kaleida Health Board Chair Edward F. Walsh Jr. and Robert Shibley, dean of architecture and planning at the University at Buffalo, worked for a year-and-a-half to promote communication between the community and the hospital reuse process. The reuse committee included neighbors, block club leaders, local business leaders, planners, community activists and other interested parties.
Kaleida also said that the Western New York Regional Economic Development Council, co-chaired by Howard Zemsky of the Larkin Development Group, was instrumental in developing reuse plans for the facility.
Chason Affiity was awarded development rights for the hospital site in August of 2012 based on their proposal for the veterinary hospital. A new request for proposal will be sent out on July 17 to local and national developers in order to award the rights for the campus to a qualified developer, according to Kaleida.
"The landscape of Buffalo continues to change every day," said Kaskie. "As the Medical Campus continues to mature, the plans to relocate the Oishei Children's Hospital to the Campus continue, and other development activities across the community continue, we believe a qualified developer will be able to pursue many different scenarios for the reuse of this site."
Kaleida Health closed the hospital in March 2012. In April, a spokesperson for Kaleida Health, told us they were optimistic the deal would close, but said there had been delays while working to complete the transaction.
Uniland, which is another development company, was a finalist to get the Millard FIllmore project. Uniland wanted to make the property mixed use with commercial and residential space.
Any other company can submit a proposal to Kaleida when the request for proposal is issued. There's still a $1 million prize to the company chosen for the project. The property will remain vacant until a new path is found to reuse the hospital.

|Postsecondary Institutions
Over 4000 postsecondary institutions exist in the United States. They come in many shapes and sizes, enroll different types of students, and grapple with unique challenges. Organizing institutions into sectors can mask these challenges and perpetuate myths about how well certain colleges and universities produce positive student outcomes.
The main sector distinctions are between associate and baccalaureate (i.e., two- vs. four-year) and between public and nonpublic institutions.
Generally, community and technical colleges serve a wider student clientele. Adults and students of color disproportionally attend two-year colleges, making coordination between the two- and four-year sectors essential to student success.
For-profit colleges compete with the community college sector for nontraditional students. In some states, for-profit institutions enroll up to a quarter of total students.
As states stretch postsecondary dollars further, policymakers must consider institutional performance and the factors that inform these outcomes. They should also collect data to gauge labor market needs. With limited resources, policymakers must deploy them in ways that produce the highest possible return on investment.
In the current fiscal environment, states and postsecondary systems will have to coordinate policies and strategies in such a way that different institutional sectors work together to achieve ambitious completion and workforce goals.
