Biographie

Carrière en club

Formée en Provence (2002-2011)
Née à Aix-en-Provence, c'est dans sa région d'origine que Marion Romanelli commence le football à 5 ans au FC Lambescain, le club de football de la ville de Lambesc, située au cœur de la Provence. Elle y joue 2 ans, puis rejoint pour une année l'US Pélican de la ville de Pélissanne dans l'agglomération de Salon-de-Provence. De benjamine à minime, la plus grande partie de sa formation a lieu au Luynes Sports (2005 à 2011) de sa ville natale d'Aix-en-Provence. Repérée par le staff de l'Équipe de France, elle intègre ensuite le Pôle France espoir de Clairefontaine et quitte les Bouches-du-Rhône pour le département voisin du Vaucluse en rejoignant le club de Division 2 du FCF Monteux-Vaucluse.

Une précocité étonnante (2011-2014)
De la même façon qu'elle joue "surclassée" dans les sélections juniors de l'Équipe de France, Marion Romanelli va faire preuve d'une étonnante précocité en club. À tout juste 15 ans, et pour sa première saison dans un championnat national, elle se fait immédiatement une place dans l'effectif de l'équipe première montilienne et participe à 17 matchs de Division 2, dont 13 comme titulaire, et 2 rencontres de Coupe de France (les deux comme titulaire). Elle marque 4 buts lors de sa première saison, le premier étant inscrit lors de la , un carton 10-0 contre l'US Blanzynoise. Le club se classe à une bonne  à l'issue de l'exercice.

La saison 2012-2013, marquée par le titre aux Championnats du Monde U17 en sélection, confirme son importance dans l'équipe type du FCF Monteux : quand elle ne joue pas en sélection nationale, elle est titulaire à quasiment toutes les rencontres des Montiliennes en Division 2 (16 matchs, 1 but, et 1 match de Coupe de France) et participe même avec l'équipe des moins de 19 ans du club, à deux rencontres du Challenge National U19 (2 buts). Le club termine cependant à une décevante  en Championnat, loin derrière les Championnes de l'AS Muretaine. Quant à l'équipe U19, elle se classe  de sa poule.

La saison suivante, bien que décevante en sélection des moins de 19 ans avec une élimination précoce aux Championnats d'Europe, est bien remplie avec le FCF Monteux, puisque Marion participe à 21 matchs sur 22 (20 comme titulaire, 2 buts) de Division 2. Pour sa dernière saison au Vaucluse, elle laisse son club sur une bonne dynamique : son équipe accroche une solide , à 1 point de la  occupée par le Claix Football, mais à plus de 20 points du leader et promu en Division 1, l'ASPTT Albi, avec qui Marion Romanelli s'engage pour la saison à venir.

La découverte de l'élite avec le promu albigeois (2014- ~ )
Marion met peu de temps pour gagner la confiance de l'entraîneur albigeois, David Welferinger, puisque sur les dix premières journées de Division 1, elle est titularisée à 10 reprises, effectuant l'intégralité des rencontres de son équipe. Elle joue la quasi-totalité des matchs de son équipe cette saison. L'équipe, fraîchement promue, réalise une première saison dans l'élite correcte et termine 9e.

Carrière internationale

En moins de 17 ans (2011-2013)
Marion Romanelli ne dispute aucune rencontre avec la sélection française des moins de 16 ans et, surclassée, intègre immédiatement l'Équipe de France des moins de 17 ans, où elle va s'imposer comme titulaire. Ainsi, elle a tout juste 15 ans lorsqu'elle rentre en deuxième mi-temps d'un match amical contre l'Écosse en septembre 2011 (victoire de la France 3-0).

La première campagne de Marion est l'Euro 2012 des moins de 17 ans où la France, vice-championne l'année précédente, a de grandes ambitions. Marion participera aux deux phases de qualification et à la phase finale  (5 matchs en tout), inscrivant son premier but en bleu face à la Norvège (victoire 4-0). Elle est titularisée lors de la large victoire des Bleuettes en demi-finale face à la Suisse (5-1), mais reste sur le banc lors de la finale perdue aux tirs-au-but face à l'Allemagne. Tout avait pourtant bien commencé pour les Françaises avec l'ouverture du score logique à la 57' de Kadidiatou Diani sur un corner de Candice Gherbi, mais les Allemandes redistribuèrent les cartes 10 minutes plus tard avec l'égalisation de Pauline Bremer sur la réception d'un coup franc.

Ce bon parcours à l'Euro 2012 permet cependant aux jeune Françaises de se qualifier pour la Coupe du monde des moins de 17 ans qui a lieu en fin d'année en Azerbaïdjan. Avec 2 matchs nuls et une large victoire sur la Gambie (10-2), Marion et ses partenaires s'extirpent d'une poule très relevée - où se trouvent États-Unis et Corée du Nord - en éliminant les Américaines pour une meilleure différence de but. Elles affrontent le Nigéria en quart-de-finale et, malgré une nette domination, n'écartent leurs valeureuses adversaires qu'aux tirs-au-but (5-3) sur un dernier penalty transformé par Marion Romanelli. Grâce à deux réalisation de Kadidiatou Diani (le  venant d'un centre de Marion), les Françaises éliminent ensuite en demi-finale une autre nation africaine, le Ghana, surprenant vainqueur du Japon au tour précédent. Elles retrouvent la Corée du Nord en finale pour un remake du match de poule qui voit les Françaises dominer le premier acte et ouvrir le score par l'intermédiaire de Léa Declercq, puis progressivement baisser le pied physiquement et subir en fin de match. Les Coréennes égalisent finalement à la 79' sur une reprise en position de hors-jeu de Ri Un Sim, après une belle frappe enroulée de Hyang Sim Ri qui s'écrase sur la transversale de Romane Bruneau. Les Françaises font alors le dos rond jusqu'à la fin du match et l'emportent finalement lors d'une longue séance de tirs-au-but (7-6) qui voit Romane Bruneau s'illustrer en arrêtant deux tirs coréens. Du côté français, héroïne en quart-de-finale, Marion voit cette fois son tir arrêté par la portière coréenne et reste prostrée au milieu des siennes jusqu'à la libération finale. Les Bleuettes, menées entre autres par Sandie Toletti, Ghoutia Karchouni et Griedge Mbock, sont Championnes du monde. Titulaire indiscutable au poste d'arrière latérale droite de l'équipe de Guy Ferrier, Marion Romanelli participe aux 6 matchs de la compétition, en intégralité.

Marion retrouve la sélection des moins de 17 ans pour une dernière campagne début 2013 : les phases qualificatives pour la nouvelle édition des Championnats d'Europe U17. Elle participe à la victoire face à l'Irlande du Nord (3-1) et au dernier match de la campagne face à l'Espagne, un match nul (1-1) qui élimine le Françaises au profit de leurs adversaires pour une moins bonne différence de but.

En moins de 19 ans (2013- ~ )
Toujours surclassée, Marion Romanelli n'a que 17 ans lorsqu'elle est appelée fin 2013 pour participer aux Championnats d'Europe 2014 des moins de 19 ans. Lors de la  qualificative, Marion et ses partenaires écartent facilement la Slovaquie (4-0) et la Bulgarie (7-0). Mais malgré un excellent tournoi de préparation de La Manga en 2014, où les Françaises obtiennent des victoires concluantes face au Danemark (2-0), à l'Angleterre (3-2) et aux États-Unis (1-0), elles échouent lors de l'ultime match de la deuxième phase qualificative face à la Suède (1-0, but à la 88' de la Suédoise Stina Blackstenius).

Marion fait ensuite partie du groupe de 28 joueuses appelé fin 2014 par Gilles Eyquem en préparation de la nouvelle échéance européenne des moins de 19 ans. Cette compétition est d'autant plus importante qu'elle est qualificative pour la Coupe du monde 2016 des moins de 20 ans.

News & perspectives on the world of politics
When Michael Jackson met Robert Mugabe at State House…
Written by Politics263 on 25/09/2020
The Mugabes with Michael Jackson at State House, Harare.
A new video has emerged showing Michael Jackson meeting President Robert Mugabe on a secret trip to Zimbabwe.
The footage – which has never been seen before – shows the King of Pop with the fawning Zimbabwean leader and his wife Grace.
The video was shot in the State House in Harare and leaked to a member of the public by a former member of the Zimbabwean state security.
The controversial November 1998 meeting was organised in order for the star to discuss ideas for the development of a hotel in Victoria Falls.
But it never went ahead so the video has remained under wraps until now.
In the footage, Mugabe can be seen greeting Jackson warmly as he steps out of a red BMW with his security detail circling.
Watch The Sun's video.
Jacko then kisses the hand of Mugabe's second wife Grace, before being led inside the compound.
In the video Mugabe says: "They would want to see if Zimbabwe, and especially the Victoria Falls, qualifies for a hotel, they want to establish a whole chain of hotels across the world, I suppose it's a Michael Jackson chain.
"And they say they have uplifted Las Vegas and they want to see if they can uplift the Vic Falls as well.
"So they are going to look at that…they think we have a good chance. But they didn't make any firm promises."
Mugabe was finally deposed in 2017 after 37 years in charge of Zimbabwe, during which time he ruthlessly disposed of opponents and brought the country's economy to its knees.
During the surreal encounter he heaps praise on the singer, who's wearing his signature sunglasses and hat.
"We are very receptive, after all Michael Jackson is a favourite of all youngsters, my boy sings Michael Jackson, he wants to be like Michael Jackson," says Mugabe.
"Every young boy wants to be like Michael Jackson. If that can bring us also his hotels and his capital here we would be grateful, extremely grateful for it."
After the unlikely rendezvous the singer steps back into the BMW and struggles to close a wobbling window in the back of the car.
Jackson arrived in Zimbabwe without any advanced publicity and refused to talk to the media on the trip, it was reported at the time.
The star – who died in 2009 – reportedly came with a delegation from US-based United Pacific Holdings Group, in which he had a financial interest.
The source who leaked the footage said: "The video was taken on old tape and was never released to the media.
"Michael Jackson refused to speak with journalists during the trip and it was not publicized in advance. The hotel was never built, so the footage was never released."
Mugabe wed his former secretary Grace Marufu, who was 41 years his junior, in 1996, following the death of his first wife, Sally, in 1992.
He died on September 6, 2019 at the age of 95 after battling ill health in a five-star hospital in Singapore. – The Sun.

Fall Of Five
Publisher Penguin UK
Penguin UK / 9780141047874
The Fall of Five is the heartstopping fourth installment in the Lorien Legacies series by Pittacus Lore.
I thought things would change when I found the others. We would stop running. We would fight the Mogadorians. And we would win.
But I was wrong. Even though we have come together, we barely escaped from them with our lives. And now we're in hiding, figuring out our next move.
The six of us are powerful - but not strong enough to take on their entire army. We haven't discovered the full extent of our Legacies. We haven't learned to work together. Time is running out, and there's only one thing we know for certain- We need to find Number Five before they do.
They caught Number One in Malaysia.
Number Two in England.
And Number Three in Kenya.
I am Number Four. I was supposed to be next.
But I'm still alive.
This battle is far from over.

Ikami is a very gentle soul for a wolf. It is a bit difficult to keep up with the rest of the packs' youngsters. He ends up finding some seemingly likeminded company, but they are not as supporting as imagined.
Soft Paws is a comic about understanding people with different mindsets and understanding your own kind.
Thank you a lot for considering to support me and my comic (and other works).
"I am never going to draw a Manga" said 12 years old me after trying to figure out how panels and tones work.
Well, look at me now. And its only thanks to all those people in my life who had supported me as an artist, those people who looked at my art and asked "Why didn't you draw a comic yet?" and all those awesome artists who inspired me to finally go back and give it another try. And boy does it take time and effort to do this! But also a lot of fun and the rewarding feeling of holding something finished.
I will regularly upload each full and new moon. Since I can't afford my drawing program else, to continue drawing it at such a pace.

SOLWATT project has been launched on 1st May 2018 and will last for four years until April 2022.
SOLWATT targets to significantly reduce the water used by CSP plants (by 35% for wet cooled & by 90% for dry cooled). The project proposes to demonstrate the efficiency of innovations on solar field cleaning, power-block cooling, water recycling system, and plant operation strategy. Among these are solutions to reduce solar field water cleaning needs, an operation and maintenance optimizer software including soiling forecaster, a MEE water recovery technology running on otherwise dumped heat from the solar field, and a cooling concept for the turbine condenser storing excess heat when ambient is too warm, then releasing it during cool night times.
The solutions will be implemented at two CSP operational sites, "La Africana" parabolic trough plant in Spain and "Ashalim" central receiver plant in Israel, to demonstrate significant reduction in water use while making CSP more cost effective and achieving near-to-market status. The solutions are best applied together, but each will also bring water and cost savings on its own, thanks to their ability to fit any kind of CSP plant; dry, wet, or hybrid cooled, existing or future ones, tailored to location and policy framework. Their application will save more than 0.5 M€/year of operational cost for a 50 MW CSP plant.
Regarding competition on water resources and humanitarian issues, the social acceptance of CSP will be increased by detailed analysis of case studies and education of local population to the benefits of solar energy.
The targeted savings of water and operation costs will increase CSP's competitiveness compared to other renewable energy and the electricity market in general, as well as its acceptance within local communities, achieving a big step forward in the SET plan goals for CSP technology by 2020. The consortium, led by TSK Electrónica y Electricidad S.A. (Spain), is made up of 13 partners from 6 European countries plus Israel, including 5 industrials partners, 2 SMEs, 5 RTOs and one University.

TikTok is driving an online promotion for other brands
According to the two models, this shows that the short viral video program has more problems than the traditional advertising platform. In the last year, TikTok has also managed to become a very profitable marketing method, helping small and medium businesses that advertise on the platform. In particular, one brand that Modern Retail spoke with has found that pull-up videos work well for driving offline sales.
Right now, Ellsworth said the main way Poppi tries to measure what kind of business TikTok is driving online is through comments. In one TikTok with Ellsworth, one of the top quotes from a shopper last week says, "I love Poppi. I've told a lot of people about it. I went to Target especially today."
Poppi estimates that his digital marketing is raising 80% of online sales, and that TikTok accounts for about 30% to 40% of that increase, depending on what other companies have seen. But, Poppi is conducting official research through January and February to better measure TikTok's impact on store brand sales, Ellsworth said. He added that Poppi is doing this "in partnership with TikTok to help the internet and we're doing it in different zip codes. We're blocking some paid ads, in part to see if it's really affecting [in-store sales]."
Some of Poppi's early internal data for Target revealed that some of Poppi's best performing retailers are located in North Dakota, Cincinnati and Ohio. "TikTok doesn't pick a zip code or your location – it lets everyone know about it," he added.
Ellsworth said, historically, beverage brands have tried to reach new customers by offering samples in retail stores. Even so, he can reach 30 people in less than an hour.
"With TikTok, now we can reach thousands of people and it's not limited to ZIP codes" It's a whole way of marketing through this digital lens and I don't think you can find it on IG and Facebook anymore. Twitter," Ellsworth added.
For the nearly two-year-old skincare brand Bubble, the rise and popularity of "portable videos" is driving consumer sentiment, said Bonnie Szucs, vice president of business development at Bubble Beauty.
For Bubble, it's not a big startup with millions of followers that's driving this, Szucs said. In fact, one creator whose video has been viewed 400,000 times had only 700 followers. "His video was first posted on December 27th and we think this is a starting point, but it's one of those things that you don't know very well, because there were about eight videos, which happened at the same time," Szucs. he explained.
In one video, which was posted on January 2, a teenager showed off her carry-on at Walmart that contained Bubble gel moisturizer. "They have moisturizer at Walmart?!?!?!? In the Beauty section?," one user commented.
Bubble started seeing similar increases in Walmart sales starting on January 2. "That's when we doubled our sales for the week in our brick-and-mortar account. And we started seeing Slam Dunk." [Bubble's hydrating moisturizer] very quickly. The same thing happened at Ulta so what happened was about two or three days from when the video went viral to when we actually saw shoppers in the store," Szucs added.
The brand ended up selling over 70% of its stock at Ulta within a week of the viral event. "We had stores send us pictures of empty shelves," Szucs added.
Bubble data showed a 300% jump in Walmart sales compared to the fourth quarter of 2022. Bubble began selling through Walmart in July 2021.
Szucs said that he hopes that Tiktok's online sales will grow in the future based on Bubble's experience. "We think that this will be sustainable over time. We have grown our customers. It's only been two years. Therefore, brand awareness is something that as a new brand we are always trying to grow. What we have been able to do at this moment is: we have shown our brand to a quarter of new customers in one week because of Tiktok," he said.

Is Bonang Matheba coming back to host Miss South Africa 2020?
Bonang Matheba has bid goodbye to host the Miss South Africa pageant following two years of fronting the most popular pageant in the country. The star has always known when to let go and move on to greater heights as her last stint as the host was on the crowning of now Miss Universe 2019, Zozibini Tunzi.
The pageant announced that taking over the reins to host this year's Miss South Africa is much-beloved actress, host, and philanthropist Nomzamo Mbatha. The beloved South African export set to feature on the coming sequel of Eddie Murphy's iconic film, "Coming to America;" "Coming 2 America," has a tough journey ahead of her.
The Miss South Africa pageant this year has had been under the spotlight and has rarely been for good reasons. The pageant has been faced with scandal after scandal. First, it was the pageant hopefuls that were either linked to prejudice or just plain out racism, to other hopefuls being purely just know-it-alls that are willing to infringe on the rights of privacy of staff members having lunch together during the pandemic.
When that matter was over and the final contestants were chosen and many believed that the drama was over. The pageant said, "Ha a- Don't you dare." The pageant first made South Africans pay to vote for their favorite contestants to win. The pageant cpreated a package which was charged at R20.00 for one vote or R100.00 for 25 votes. As if that was not enough, the pageant has announced that the pageant will be hosted virtually, with an e-ticket available to view the show virtually charged at R99.99 for the full package.
But there are little victories like Bonang Matheba's comeback. Although not as a host of the pageant, the Queen's and South Africa's favorite Woolworth "bev," House of BNG, makes its come back as the official celebratory sponsor for the festivities. This marks the second year in a row that House of BNG does the things.

$$f({\bf x})=\tfrac{1}{2\pi\sqrt{|\Sigma|}} e^{\left(-\frac12 \left({\bf x} - {\bf \mu}\right)^T \Sigma^{-1} \left({\bf x} - {\bf \mu}\right)\right)},\quad{\bf x} = \begin{bmatrix} x \\ y \end{bmatrix},\quad{\bf \mu} = \begin{bmatrix} \mu_x \\ \mu_y \end{bmatrix},\quad\Sigma=\begin{bmatrix} \sigma_x^2 && 0 \\ 0 && \sigma_y^2  \end{bmatrix}.$$
Here, $(\mu_x,\mu_y)$ indicates the center of the bell, and $\Sigma$ the way it spreads all over the plane. I'm thinking more from a geometric point of view, but, of course, those would be the mean and the covariance matrix (with uncorrelated variables) of a 2D normal distribution.
I know that, in case I wanted to recover those parameters from the set of points, I can use a nonlinear model fit. For instance, I've tried NonlinearModelFit in Mathematica and it works well.

But now, imagine that my set of points $\{(x_n,y_n,f(x_n,y_n))\}$ is rotated and/or translated to somewhere else in the 3D space. My question is the following one:

Given a set of points $\{(x_k, y_k, z_k)\}_{k=1}^N$, what method can I use to guess the parameters for the rotation ($\theta_x,\theta_y,\theta_z$), the translation ($v_x,v_y,v_z$) and the Gaussian ($\sigma_x,\sigma_y$) such that
  $$\begin{bmatrix} x_k \\ y_k \\ z_k \end{bmatrix} = R_{\theta_x,\theta_y,\theta_z}\begin{bmatrix} \tilde x_k \\ \tilde y_k \\ f_{\sigma_x,\sigma_y}(\tilde x_k,\tilde y_k) \end{bmatrix} + \begin{bmatrix} v_x \\ v_y \\ v_z \end{bmatrix}$$
  for some unknown $(\tilde x_k,\tilde y_k)\in\mathbb{R}^2$?

EDIT:
This is what I came up with so far. I have to solve the following optimization problem:
$$\min_{\begin{array}{c}\theta_x,\theta_y,\theta_z\\v_x,v_y,v_z\\\sigma_x,\sigma_y\end{array}} \sum_{k=1}^N \big(\tilde z_k - f_{\sigma_x,\sigma_y}(\tilde x_k,\tilde y_k)\big)^2$$
where
$$\begin{bmatrix} \tilde x_k \\ \tilde y_k \\ \tilde z_k \end{bmatrix} = R_{\theta_x,\theta_y,\theta_z}^{-1} \left(\begin{bmatrix} x_k \\ y_k \\ z_k \end{bmatrix} - \begin{bmatrix} v_x \\ v_y \\ v_z \end{bmatrix} \right) $$
However, in this way I do not have the classical form of the residuals $r_k=z_k-g(x_k,y_k)$, where $g$ depends on the parameters. Can I go further or is that the final expression I should use?

A: You new model is still the Gaussian but applied to the $x,y,f$ coordinates after multiplication by the unknown rotation matrix and translation by the unknown vector, which adds $6$ parameters to your equations.
Anyway, this would form a degenerate problem as two translational degrees of freedom have the same effect as $\mu_x,\mu_y$, and one rotational degree of freedom has the effect of nonzero covariance.
So you can recast as the fitting of an $8$-parameter model including

*

*an arbitrary 3D rotation,

*an arbitrary 3D translation,

*a centered Gaussian for independent variables ($\Sigma$ diagonal).

The documentation would have you believe this is a fairly simple process, and since I can't seem to find many others on these forums banging their heads against their desks as I have, perhaps it is in fact very simple and I am simply overlooking something obvious.
I would like to have the .scss files in my scss folder transpiled into .css files in my css folder. Nothing I seem to put into the Output paths field seems to work. The scss folder and the css folder are at the same level. So you'd think that putting in ../css would work if the Working directory is the default, $FileDir$. I've tried using colons instead of slashes (as per the docs), I've tried back slashes and forward slashes, I've tried updating the settings and restarting WebStorm. I've tried a good number of different approaches in an attempt to get this to work because it would be so frickin' lovely.
The documentation would have me use the browse button to select my target directory, but there is no browse button.
If anyone has any insight into this problem, or requires further clarification about how I'm going about this, please let me know.
Also, what is your project structure? Would you like the generated css files being placed in <project root>/css folder, or to ../css/ folder related to the directory where your scss files are located?
You'll notice that I've simply left everything set to their default values because as near as I can tell these are the values I want anyway. I want my css files to have the same names as their scss counterparts. And I want those generated/transpiled css files to appear in the css directory, which would be ../css in relation to the scss directory.
While I followed your reply (for which I am quite grateful, btw) I'm still not really sure what arguments I should make or where I would put them in order to achieve my desired goal.
which seems to be working perfectly.
I can't help but wonder whether there isn't a better way to do this though. If you have any thoughts on that I'd be glad to learn of them.
There is nothing wrong with this working solution -- I'm using the same approach (although for different kind of watchers). I think "don't touch what ain't broken" fits well here.
It's helpful to verify the paths using the setting: "Show Console" drop down set to "Always"


I tried publish the prevoius working versions also. Nothing is working now. Previously I set the page as anonymous and worked for two days and then changed it to Registered. I don't know this is causing the issue. I tried clearing the cache. Still showing the same error. Please help me to resolve the issue.
Could you start your application one more time,a new then in service center export the error log and share it here in your reply?
This one usually occurs when user tried to login and user don't have role or permission to access that particular page.
You need to login in your application first and then enter on site that you want to enter. Maybe the problem is the user that you tried to login does not have the role required in that page.

In an era where the social climate where the landscape for marginalized communities are shifting — in both good and bad ways — Benedict Cumberbatch has come forward to give his stance on a pressing issue facing Hollywood and beyond: pay equality.
Dr. Strange is attempting to work his magic and his influential platform to change the way women are paid in Hollywood. In a recent interview with Radio Times magazine, Cumberbatch said, "Equal pay and a place at the table are the central tenets of feminism.
Tha Avengers: Infinity War actor added, "Look at your quotas. Ask what women are being paid, and say: 'If she's not paid the same as the men, I'm not doing it.'
The Academy Award-nominated actor isn't just talk. His production company, SunnyMarch is practically run by women and aims to focus on more female-focused dramas.
"I'm proud that [partner] Adam [Ackland] and I are the only men in our production company; our next project is a female story with a female lens about motherhood, in a time of environmental disaster," said Cumberbatch. "If it's centered around my name, to get investors, then we can use that attention for a raft of female projects. Half the audience is female!"
Cumberbatch stars in Patrick Melrose which debuts tonight on Showtime.

Lindsay's work focuses on quantitative methods and their application to questions regarding the effectiveness of educational policies and programs across the pre-school to postsecondary spectrum. Much of her recent work has focused on implementing large-scale randomized trials to investigate potential solutions to "summer melt," the phenomenon that college-intending students fail to transition successfully from high school to college. Lindsay has co-authored a book on summer melt to be published by the Harvard Education Press this coming fall. Lindsay earned an EdD in quantitative policy analysis in education as well as a master's degree in statistics and a master's degree in administration, planning, and social policy, all from Harvard. She holds a bachelor's degree from Dartmouth College.
