It's true that they'll wind up growing up together by default; Telluride is a small town, and thus all the kids that were born around the same time will inevitably share school days and birthday parties from now to graduation day. But not all of them will call each other their best friend.
Elle and Lilly are three years old, born almost exactly one month apart. At three years old, one hasn't been exposed to enough social innuendo to know to put a label on something like a relationship; so Elle doesn't call Lilly her best friend. She doesn't call her anything but Lilly.
"Lilly! Lilly! I have to tell you something."
"Lilly! Lilly! Be my part-en-er."
"Lilly! Lilly! Wait for me."
Their friendship started before they had words, when they were infants at daycare together. I showed up one day to find Elle, in overalls, shuffling across the carpet on hands-and-knees in pursuit of Lilly (who was also, funnily, dressed in overalls.) Both babies were laughing that throaty, makes-your-heart-want-to-melt laugh that only babies can laugh. Oblivious to everything around them except each other.
The two are still oblivious to most things, besides each other, when they're together.
Elle hasn't gotten to see her best friend for nearly a month since she caught the virus that put her on a ventilator and in Children's Hospital in Denver, thereby transforming her father and I into certifiable germaphobes.
After the craziness of a life-threatening communicable disease, my impulse is, admittedly, to lock my kid in a sanitized tower for the rest of her childhood. While living out Rapunzel's fairy tale may keep my firstborn from catching any of the illnesses passed from one kid to another like a Show and Tell treasure during these long, small town winters, I realize that impulse isn't altogether the best medicine for my child's mental health… which, after an experience like she's had, is an important component of her overall wellbeing, too.
So I squashed the urge to spend another Saturday sequestered in my home with my now-healed daughter, and went instead to Lilly's birthday party.
"ELODIE!" Lilly screamed, emerging from the front door as if transported on the bright pink cloud created by her birthday tutu. In a flurry of game-playing, piñata-smacking, and cake-eating, Elle's month of playdate-less Saturdays came to a glorious end. Watching my child fall so seamlessly back into her three-year-old normalcy felt like the first spell of springtime rain, washing away the grit and grime leftover from a long and taxing winter.
At one point in the festivities, Elle emerged from the fracas wailing about an injury.
"Mommy, I really hurt my elbow!" she moaned. I brushed the hair out of her tear-rimmed eyes, kissed her on the sweaty forehead, squeezed her tight – all the things a mother does to mend a child's wounds… To no avail. Elle's tears wouldn't quit.
Lilly, interrupted from her birthday merriment by the sobs, appeared at Elle's side, placing a skinny little arm around her shoulders.
"Elodie?" she said, effusive with three-year-old concern.
Elle, who had buried her face into my legs, turned now to her best friend, accepting the hug that was offered.
"Lilly, Lilly," she sniffled. "I have to tell you something…"
And she was healed.
Girls can be shockingly mean. It is the stuff of an entire genre of books and film. Luckily, at three years old, that petrie dish of adolescent hormones and cultural cues has not yet grown polluted enough to cultivate that meanness. At three years old, there is friendship, and it is as pure and as refreshing as a springtime shower.
As parents, we protect and cultivate these growing little beings. We play with them, laugh with them, and cry with them… but we do so as parents. Not, necessarily, as friends.
The companionship of a friend, someone who isn't a given but is instead chosen to hold your hand through life's long winters, and celebrate beside you when spring arrives, is such a special gift. I may be the person who witnessed her first breath, fed her from my breast and wiped her bottom (and continues to wipe her bottom), but the comfort I can offer my daughter, as her mother, is not like the comfort of a best friend.
Thank you, to all of our family's best friends, for celebrating the coming of spring with us.

Currently I'm having a love affair with rugs, specifically one rag in particular. The sisal rug is the perfect home accessory for adding an organic look to your design. While it is true sisal rugs have been gracing the floors of homes since the mid 1900's, there has never been more choices or ways to style a sisal rug than as of late.
I'm loving the delicate round rugs for an entry way, like in the top images. Pair this organic-style area rug with modern entryway chandelier and you will make a designer statement. A sisal runner with a greek key or plain banded border works on practically every staircase.

Laying one on your patio is easy and non-fussy way to step up your outdoor style. Or my personal favorite, the layering effect where you place a smaller and usually brighter toned rug on top of the traditional sisal. All effective, and chic ways to add sisal to your home.
And did you know sisal rugs are produced from an actual plant, the Agave Sisalana. Fibre is extracted by a process known as decortication, where leaves are crushed and beaten by a rotating wheel set with blunt knives, so that only fibres remain. The fibre is then dried, brushed and baled for export and eventually weaved into the rugs we all know so well today.

Let's agree to agree: chandeliers aren't just for parents' homes, grandparents' homes and the Palace of Versailles anymore.
For a modern take, look no further than the space-race-inspired Sputnik light at the top of this post. Or with their liberal, updated approach to form, brushed nickel chandeliers like the one below have the look of instant classics.

And for those who aren't ready to let crystal go just yet, look for faceted droplets and bubbles in contemporary designs. Mini crystal chandeliers are perfect for small spaces and bathrooms while full-size designs become exclamation points in your home.

Excessive ornament may be on the out of style in contemporary design, but the fundamentals are still there: namely an attention to intrigue, balance of form, and quality of materials. Combine those influences and you've got yourself a classic chandelier, modernized and magnificent.

Kelly Wearstler is the queen of glamorous, funky spaces. The famed interior designer particularly shines with her public spaces like hotels, bars and restaurants.
Each one feels like an escape into a new world—just like how a night on the town should be. By looking at the way she designs public bars can help us learn how to create a sophisticated and unique bar for the home.
Let' see how....
1. Pattern on pattern. Pattern on pattern is one way to really have fun with your bar space. It feels playful yet deliberate. The trick with mixing patterns is to contrast them in either color or scale. Here she used a blue and white stripe versus an oversized grey marble and it works so well! Ultramodern counter height swivel stools are bold and chic.
2. This is one of my all-time favorite bar spaces. Nothing says glamorous more than emerald green and dramatic lighting. She contrasts the heavily patterned flooring with darker seats and then crisp white counter bar stools. It makes the two spaces feel distinct.
3. The glamour in this bar space comes out in the metallic finishes and unique accessories. Try a counter bar stool that swivels for extra functionality.
4. This bar space is a bit more subdued with the color palette but amped up in the millwork like on the counter and cupboards. The counter bar stools are simple so as not to distract. A beautiful starburst pendant tops the space.
5. (top image) You don't have to do too much to your home bar to make it pop. Try using a single color of paint, like this bright yellow at the Viceroy Hotel in Palm Springs, and pair it with a simple white swivel barstool.
To achieve a similar look for your bar, try one of these counter bar stools and make sure to get it 24-26". These bold and chic stools can work themselves into the most ultramodern to the most complex spaces.
1. This comfortable white leatherette adjustable height barstool would be great in a dramatic bar space.2. This modern swivel bar stool can work perfectly in a more subdued color palette.3. This backless adjustable counter stool is perfect for a kitchen or a bar space (currently unavailable).4. This faux leather modern swivel barstool comes in a beautiful chrome and would be so versatile.
Which is your favorite bar space?

Living in a state that is on the coast, I am here to tell you that there is a way to achieve the nautical home style without being too thematic. There are a lot of nautical elements that I love, like antiqued finish mirrors, stripes, even rope! Whether you think you dig the nautical style or not, I hope that this little round up will show you there is a more stylish side than the nautical style you might be used to.
Take this living room for example! It has a nautical, modern feel to it. The colors scream nautical with shades of blue, whites and reds. There's lots of fun elements like the rope ottomans and driftwood inspired coffee table.
Please notice that not everything in the room screams nautical. To pull off this look, you just need a few elements and the right color scheme. You could even have less on-the-nose décor than this room and still pull it off. Maybe a pretty antiqued brass mirror? The more round the better! A sofa similar to this navy one above would be perfect and a great staple for any living room style.
As for how you can create your own... Here are a few ideas!
Let's start with the sconce lighting. The Franklin Iron Works Nautical Bronze Outdoor Wall Light definitely has that seaside town feel to it, don't you think? It would look awesome lining a hallway, lighting up a living room or even on the back porch. I love the industrial feel to this light too. Very chic!
The artwork is a favorite of mine. A classy sailboat blueprint design, like this Flat Bottom Blueprint Wall Art in a rustic frame. I love it! This would look amazing in a nautical chic space.
And the chair... Well, let's just say that I want this Horizontal Stripe Accent Chair with or without the nautical theme! The stripes bring in both the nautical look while adding some modern style to the room as well. You really can't go wrong with stripes! This chair would be a great accent chair in a living room where you're trying to get a seaside feel to your home decor.
So what do you think? Would you try the nautical look in your home?

There are so many options when it comes to color palettes for your home. You can go bright and bold or serene and calm. Whatever you love, one color that fits right in to any modern home style is black. In fact, black is timeless and looks striking in any space.
Whether paired with just a monochromatic palette or mixed in with color, you cannot go wrong with black.
Image from Indoors Outdoors
One big reason why I'm such an advocate for black is it hides stains and dirt. In fact black tile is a great option for bathrooms and kitchens. And lets talk about the black ceiling in the top image. Amazing!
This minimalist space above has a few details that I can't get enough of, including that simple black stove. Against the white wall, it looks like a perfect architectural detail. It also picks up on the black legs of the stool, black books and black speaker.
Image from Fancy
This kitchen has a few layers going on. We see wood, white, color and brass. The black on the wall seems to anchor the room and create a cohesive space. Who says that you can't mix and match!?
Image from Coco Lapine Design
For a dramatic look, paint one wall in your space black. It will create a cozy feel with a bit of sophistication. And modern lighting always looks great against black!

2008 Knowledge & Skills Statements
NOTE: NASDCTEc has recently supported the creation of the Common Career Technical Core (CCTC), a set of common, program-level standards for CTE that are fewer, higher and clearer. The CCTC is built from the foundational components of the Knowledge and Skills Statements along with recent research and input from education and industry experts. States are expected to voluntarily work to adopt the CCTC over the course of the next few years. NASDCTEc is working with states during the transition to the CCTC along with providing updates to educators and the general public.
If you are an educator, the 2008 version of the K&S remain a viable resource, but we encourage a review and analysis of the CCTC standards to identify alignment to the existing teaching and learning expectations.
Welcome to the 2008 Career Clusters™ Knowledge and Skills Charts! All of the careers in each of the 16 Career Clusters™are sub-grouped into Pathways. The number of Pathways per Career Cluster™ varies from two to seven.
The 2008 Knowledge and Skills Charts are provided as PDF files and also as customizable Excel documents.
There is a Knowledge and Skills Chart for each of the 16 Career Clusters™ that displays knowledge and skills common to all careers in the entire Career Cluster™. There are also 79 Knowledge and Skills Charts that display the Pathway Knowledge and Skills common to all careers in each Pathway.
The 2008 Knowledge and Skills incorporate some content updates that were recommended by a few of the Cluster National Advisory Committees after the 2006 version was released, and they also have been revised to have a more consistent look and feel in terms of breadth, depth of knowledge, and format across all 16 clusters. Additionally, in the 2008 version, knowledge and skills that are essential in any employment situation have been organized into a set of "Essential Knowledge and Skills." These essential skills are the starting point and should be contextualized within any pathway and plan of study.
Two Career Clusters™ have had name changes that are reflected in the 2008 version: The comma was deleted from Business Management & Administration; and Marketing, Sales and Service is now just Marketing. There are also some pathway title changes and/or consolidations in the Business Management & Administration, Finance, Marketing, and Information Technology clusters. There are now therefore 79 pathways instead of 81.
Using the Career Clusters Knowledge and Skills Statements to Shape Programs of Study
Essential Knowledge and Skills
NOTE: The CCTC (mentioned at the top of the page> also includes an overarching set of Career Ready Practices that apply to all programs of study. The Career Ready Practices include12 statements that address the knowledge, skills and dispositions that are important to becoming career ready.

Terry Gillespie is a superstar among our mentor Angels. While being diagnosed with stage IIIB carcinoma, non-small cell lung cancer, she did not let the diagnoses bring her down. Not only did she beat it, but she did so with an enthusiasm and passion rarely found in any individual. She has dedicated most of her time to be a mentor angel and helps others after their initial diagnosis and through their treatments.
With only one lung, she bowls several times a week and loves to swim. According to Terry, she "doesn't really swim, she bobs"
Terry is a shining example of energy, compassion, vivaciousness and love all wrapped up in one. She does her best to personally visit her pair-ups if she can. She has visited fighters in Illinois, Wisconsin and Missouri, often sending beautiful crystal and pearl survivor bracelets to the women she mentors. She tells the fighters that she paired up with "if you can't cry with me, who are you going to cry with" She truly believes that no one can really understand what you're going through more than someone who has been there. And been there she has.
Terry is working on putting together her own non for profit organizations called "Lung Cancer Heroes" dedicated to raising awareness and funding for lung cancer research
Although new to the Imerman Angel staff, this past January, I had the pleasure of introducing Terry to her 50th 1-on-1 pair up. She has done several more since. Terry has a "can-do" attitude that is unparalleled. She has never said no, she has never been too tired, too busy, too pre-occupied, too anything to help out a person in their time of need. She hugs with her heart and high fives with her soul.
Imerman Angels is proud to have her among our dedicated group of Survivor Mentor Angels.

Why She's No.10?
Kate Beckinsale's determination to reinvent herself as a serious actress has paid off in spades: Before its distribution was cut short because the studio behind the film was forced to file for bankruptcy, her performance in Nothing But the Truth was generating serious Oscar buzz. She hasn't completely turned away from the big-budget shoot-'em-ups that turned her into a star, however. Whiteout, set for release in 2009, casts the actress as a U.S. Marshall on the hunt for a vicious killer in Antarctica, where her investigation is about to become a whole lot harder as the sun prepares to set for six months straight. She'll also be seen alongside Robert De Niro, Drew Barrymore and Sam Rockwell in the ensemble drama Everybody's Fine. There's little doubt that Kate Beckinsale has firmly established herself as that rare beauty who can actually act. Read more about Kate Beckinsale
Short Bio
Though her days as just another struggling actress are long behind her, Kate Beckinsale's drop-dead gorgeous looks have generally prevented her from being taken seriously as an actress -- something that certainly changed in 2008. Her heartbreaking work in the critically acclaimed drama Snow Angels earned her some of the best reviews of her career, while the political thriller Nothing But the Truth placed Kate Beckinsale firmly at the forefront of well-deserved Oscar-nomination rumors. It's an impressive turnaround for an actress previously best known for her work within the action genre, thanks to her roles in such popcorn-friendly endeavors as 2003's Underworld and 2004's Van Helsing.

Captain Caveman was a prehistoric superhero unfrozen by three teenage beauties. They took him around in their van, solving mysteries across the country. And he could fly. Young boys of the world, set your envy-meters to "overload."
The captain's powers of flight came from his multi-purpose club, which could pop open to produce any gadget necessary to defeat the villain. Sidekick Cave Bird was also on hand to keep his master's devices straight. The girls, known collectively as the "Teen Angels," were brainy Brenda, scaredy pants Taffy and easygoing Dee Dee.
Supremely hairy, "Cavey" was also blessed with a great set of lungs, which he would use to belt out his name when flying into action. After two years of being a segment on Scooby's All-Star Laff-a-Lympics and Scooby's All-Stars, Cavey and the girls get their own- short-lived- show, it was decided Cavey's outrageous antics were too much to contain to ensemble work. Hanna-Barbera finally gave the shaggy hero his own show in 1980, titled Captain Caveman and the Teen Angels.
The program only ran for 16 episodes, but the Captain found a more fitting home in Bedrock, playing as a supporting character on The Flintstones Comedy Show and later on The Flintstone Kids, this time with son Cavey Jr.

Our Mission
The Institute for Scripture Research (ISR) is an organization registered in South Africa for the purpose of spreading the truth of the Scriptures to the world through its various publications.
Our Vision
Our vision is to faithfully proclaim YHWH and his word throughout the world by means of all our publications. Our primary means though is through the translating, printing and publishing of a literal translation of "The Scriptures" that is as accurate as we can make it.
We have restored the name of the Father and his Messiah while also preserving the Hebraic mind-set of the original writers, to the best of our ability. In so doing we hope that it will shed further light on the understanding of the message of the Scriptures, thereby spiritually enriching the lives of its readers. Such a translation would be subject to on-going revision, as the ISR continues its quest to make it more and more accurate.
To further this end we also offer the public other publications that we believe may be excellent tools in the hands of those who seek for truth (See Publications).
Publications to date include The Scriptures © 1998, 2009 in various formats, (including the 1998 digital edition ©), as well as the well-researched book by Dr. C.J Koster, "Come Out Of Her My People" © 1996, available in various languages.
The Scriptures, Duotone Purple
Now available! The new Duotone Softcover edition of The Scriptures, with beautiful soft SVEPA PU Flexi-Cover, silver edging and matching satin ribbons.More »

The Scriptures, new Duotone & Hard Cover Editions
We have just successfully completed our largest print run ever, with the addition of the new Duotone editions.
Duotone Edition
Bound in beautiful soft Svepa Polyurethane, with burnished impressions. A choice of two color schemes are on offer.
The material is hard wearing and has a leather look and feel to it. To make it even more attractive, we have packaged it in an artist designer box with transparent window in the form of the ISR logo (scroll). The edges of the publication are in silver, and it comes with three color matching satin book ribbons, which can be tucked in at the Torah, Nevi'im (Prophets) and Ketuvim (Writings).
Hard Cover Edition
Bound in similar Svepa Polyurethane, this new edition comes packaged in a neat artist designer slipcase, providing additional protection.

Cooke expects any Johnson outcome
Former England boss Geoff Cooke claims he would not be surprised if current chief Martin Johnson decided to step down.
Johnson's future still remains unclear in the wake of England's disappointing World Cup campaign - with his current deal still to expire.
And Cooke, who led England to two grand slams during his seven years at the helm, wonders if Johnson will want to carry on after widespread criticism of the behaviour of his squad in New Zealand.
"I wouldn't be surprised if he decided he didn't want any more of it," Cooke told the Yorkshire Post. "He's got to ask himself does he need the flak that he's been getting."
If Johnson instead opts to carry on Cooke believes the Rugby Football Union will need to insist that he instigates a shake-up of his backroom team.
"I wouldn't be unhappy if they decided to stick with Martin Johnson; after all, he's got the experience now," he added. "But he certainly needs a different team of coaches with him.
"The key decision is still Martin Johnson. Everything depends on that, whether they decide to keep him on let him go or he decides to go himself."

Great finishing product. does the jobs easily.
Works very well. Improves tune-ability.
An item to be used with caution.
It really makes the difference on plain strings nut notches, especially on brass nuts, where even a good file can leave a bur.
Great stuff! Very pleased with this, works a treat!
Great product! I mounted some of the cord in a dental floss frames. The results - better control when cleaning up string slots and I only need one hand.
Great for finishing nut slots, and exceptional for flossing after corn on the cob !!

I'm trying to create a slightly sophisticated application that is spread across several script files. Some functions in these files call either other. Here is what I want to emulate:
function A(){}
#include A.jsx
function B(){
// some stuff
//some more stuff
#include A.jsx
#include B.jsx
#include D.jsx
Basically, I want a script to act differently depending on if it is the one being called or if it is being called from elsewhere. I thought I could do this pretty easily by using global variables and something like:
var mainScript=$.fileName;
But global variables persist between script calls so this doesn't work. I'm a bit stuck. Anyone know how to do this? app.activeScript doesn't work because I am executing through the extendScript toolkit.
I'm vexed.
There's method outlined in the Scripting Guide to get the current script while running in the ESTK, using error handling:
function myGetScriptPath() {
try {
return app.activeScript;
catch(myError) {
return File(myError.fileName);
This seems to just provide the name of the file where that function is defined or where myError is generated. What I am trying to determine is: what was the *first* or *main* script that was run, and is the current script file that one?
Not sure if it'll help, but I know in Python they do something like:
if __name__ == "__main__":
And this basically says "if this is the main file that was executed, and not one that was just included by someone else, call main()".
I'm sorry—I shouldn't have chimed in without really trying to understand what you're doing. (I still haven't, honestly—sorry, no time.) I think includes are treated as if you copy/pasted them at the #include line in the including file. I don't think you'll have any information about context other than the script file name. Maybe pass the first script name as an argument and then pass it along to every subsequently called function, comparing it to the active script name in each one?
Brian, this is just not a good pattern to use.
The answer is easy: don't do it this way. Design .jsxinc files to be included by .jsx files, don't include .jsx files inside other .jsx files. Make each file either a file that is included, or one that performs inclusion, but not both.
This makes the code easy to read and meets most requirements. What are you trying to accomplish that does not fit that paradigm?
Even if you could find a way to make what you wanted work, it would be hard and confusing to read, and tough for others to maintain.
You're definitely not wrong John, this will resolve the problem. Sometimes, especially when doing development in a large project with lots of interlocking pieces it's convenient to be able to have some test code within each file that tests the functionality of that specific code. Even moreso when you are new to a language, so when you think you find a better way to do something you can quicky try it out and see what happens without invoking your monolithic program. It's not difficult to achieve this approach by splitting into two files, it just means that you have to keep twice as many file tabs open and remember which one to switch to "Go" instead of doing it with the code you are working on. It seems like an extra step for no good reason.
I do this in Java all the time, most of my complex classes have a main() method so they can be executed standalone to try out a quick snippet or test some corner cases. Comprehensive unit testing would probably be better but the time investment is much greater plus I doubt something like that would be well supported with ExtendScript.
Is there any different between a jsx and jsxinc file or is that just a common naming convention that you or a community of people use to differentiate files?
Yeah, I think it just not a pattern that works well in Javascript. (I appreciate what you mean about Java).
I suppose I would try a testA() function the A.jsx file, etc., and adjust the main program to call testA() instead of doA().
Or if you have A.jsx, B.jsx, C.jsx, and main.jsx, instead of modifying main.jsx (undesirable) or creating seperate testA.jsx, testB.jsx, and testC.jsx, just add a test.jsx that includes A, B, and C and then calls testA(), etc. That way you don't double the number of files, you just add one (scales better).
Is there any different between a jsx and jsxinc file or is that just a common naming convention that you or a community of people use to differentiate files?
It is Adobe's naming convention for ExtendScript, and of course its optional. But naming a file .jsxinc does help to encourage the belief that you ought not try to execute it directly...
At the risk of actually being helpful, I'm puzzled why your global variables are persisting, unless you are running in a persistent scripting engine...

I open the ExtendScript Toolkit and press the play button. Looks like based on whatever book/tutorial I originally started reading when making this code I also seem to have put the following at the top of my files. Not sure if they are doing anything
#targetengine "session"
#strict on
I'm not as hacky of a developer as it sounds (I promise), I just had a lot to learn and so when I got a basic environment working I kept going. One day I should go re-read the scripting guide, I'd probably learn a lot.
#targetengine "session"
#strict on
Yes, these cause your script to run in a persistent engine called "session" which means global variables will persist (so you need to be a *lot* more careful with them), and also windows and hooks and eventListeners can persist after the script execution appears to complete.
If you do not require these things, then removing the targetengine line may be a good idea.
But on the other hand, the discipline you get from persistent global vars should be good for you. But probably not good enough to outweigh the problems you're going to have...
In fact turning it off will even allow me to do the things I wanted in the first place. So life is grand. Thanks John! I learned a lot through this little exchange!

This work includes looking at the flaws of the proposed directive, gaining support to reduce the negative effects of the directive and helping with our Seed Campaign to promote the use of open pollinated seeds. Joe returns to University in September 2014, where he will complete his undergraduate dissertation on the effect of climate change on soil succession.
Colleen runs the Scottish Farming Innovation Network, a programme which aims to involve farmers in developing and sharing innovative techniques and best practice for improving productivity, quality and environmental performance, and to showcase a practical approach to research and development for sustainable agriculture.
She has a background in agriculture, with particular interests in sheep and agroforestry. In addition to extensive experience of conventional systems and several years working on organic farms in Scotland she is also a trained ecologist, with research experience including sheep/deer interactions in Scotland and wild sheep ecology in Mongolia.
Her programme encourages practical methods to create an environment where famers have the opportunity to learn for themselves and from other farmers about particular production problems, and how to address these by observing and discussing new and innovative ways of doing things in the field. This involves running practical on-farm events and field labs, and establishing regional networks to exchange knowledge, best practice and innovation between farmers and the research community.
Sally edits Organic Farming Magazine which we publish three times a year. The magazine is the UK's leading journal on organic farming and growing. She has worked here since 2012 and is also a licensee, owning an organic farm in South Somerset where she used to raise geese for the Christmas market.

At the Soil Association her focus is on working with livestock farmers to improve production efficiency. This involves her with producers, inspectors/assessors, vets and the farm advisory sector to improve animal welfare. She has been instrumental in developing the Assurewel welfare outcome assessment and advice service for livestock producers. This service enables early intervention to prevent welfare problems and optimise enterprise performance.
Jess is an Animal Welfare Advisor on AssureWel, a collaborative programme between the Soil Association, RSPCA and Bristol University to embed welfare outcomes into the assurance process of certification schemes. Jess is responsible for supporting continuous improvement in welfare outcomes for the major livestock species, through training of scheme assessors and facilitating knowledge transfer to producers. So far this has included laying hen, dairy cattle and pig welfare, and will include sheep, beef and broilers by June 2015.
Jess joined AssureWel in March 2012 after carrying out an Animal Behaviour Masters placement on the Bristol Welfare Assurance Programme, and a PhD and post doctorate as part of the Healthy Feet project, working with farmers to reduce dairy cattle lameness. Mobility monitoring has since been widely adopted by the dairy industry through the DairyCo Healthy Feet Programme. Jess advises livestock producers on all aspects of animal welfare and animal welfare assessment and the linkage with farm profit.
Astrid grew up on a family dairy and horticultural farm in the south of Ireland where her family have been producing, wholesaling and retailing produce since the early 1800's. Most of her summer holidays were spent either working in the fields or wholesaling at Dublin markets which gave her first-hand experience of both the practical and commercial realities of farming and growing life.
Astrid joined the Soil Association in 2002 and is currently responsible for delivering a range of technical advice and support to members as well as managing and delivering our exciting calendar of agricultural events from farm walks and technical seminars to national conferences like our annual National Soil Symposium. Astrid also coordinates the Duchy Originals Future Farming field lab programme.
