Welcome to Turtle Tots North Lancashire!
Hello, my name is Fiona and welcome to Turtle Tots North Lancashire. We offer specialist baby and toddler swimming lessons in various pools across the area.
Throughout my childhood I was a keen swimmer, and at university I trained as a classical singer – two passions I never thought would be combined. Yet when I joined my first Turtle Tots class with my baby girl Imogen three years ago that is exactly what I found.
The class was relaxed, informative, fun, full of songs and extremely exciting and from that very first class I thought how much I'd love to become a teacher.
A year later my son Alistair was born and we relocated to the Lake District and I retrained as a Turtle Tots teacher. I love what I do, it's a privilege to teach children and their parents such an important life skill in a safe a fun environment.
The 30-minute lessons allow for a unique bonding opportunity with your little one and the time you spend in the water, both learning together, will enable you to practice all the fundamental skills needed to learn to swim. Your experienced teacher will guide you both through each class, allowing each child to progress at a pace that they are comfortable with.
I am confident that you will fall in love with the classes just as I did but don't just take my word it come along and see for yourself.
Head over to the Our Pools page to see where you can join us. The list of available classes at each venue can be found in the drop down menu above. If you have any questions please send me an email northlancashire@turletots.com - I look forward to hearing from you.

Ryanair Cancels German Flights After Pilots and Cabin Crew Walkout
Benjamin Katz and Richard Weiss, Bloomberg
Despite making concessions to unions over the past few months, Ryanair CEO Michael O'Leary doesn't intend to give in to all their demands. The carrier and its disgruntled staff are locked in a drawn out game of chicken.
Ryanair Holdings Plc flights from Germany to Athens, the Spanish costas and Latvia were among 150 canceled on Wednesday as pilots and cabin crew walked out as part of a year-long campaign for higher pay and improved contracts.
The Frankfurt airport website listed as deleted Ryanair operations to the Greek capital, Porto in northern Portugal and the Spanish holiday hot-spots of Malaga, Seville, Lanzarote and Murcia. In Cologne, 20 of 56 slated services were rubbed from the timetable, while in Bremen a trip to Riga was among those lost.
Europe's biggest discount airline has been forced to scrap more than a third of its 400-plus daily flights in Germany after unions there called a strike late Monday. Among the majority of departures due to operate as normal were trips from Frankfurt to London Stansted, Ryanair's biggest base, and Majorca.
Chief Executive Officer Michael O'Leary told a U.K. press conference that he won't "roll over" in the face of unreasonable demands, while pledging to work to avoid walkouts wherever possible. While public concern about the strikes is hurting demand and fares, the CEO reiterated guidance for full-year net income between 1.25 billion euros and 1.35 billion euros ($1.4b billion-1.6 billion).
Ryanair shares traded 0.4 percent higher at 11:56 a.m. in Dublin after the outlook comments, having previously declined as much as 0.6 percent.
Services staffed by contract pilots are unaffected by the German walkouts, together with operations that use planes based outside the country. The company's newly acquired Laudamotion arm, which is headquartered in Austria but has a major business in Germany, isn't involved in the dispute.
Jobs Risk
Dublin-based Ryanair, which has made progress in talks elsewhere including deals with Italian and Irish pilots, said Tuesday a failure to reach a realistic settlement in Germany could lead to base closures and job cuts, especially at smaller hubs that lose money in the winter low season.
Ryanair says it has a 10 percent market share in Germany and that a pay deal preserving its cut-price business model would allow it to pursue plans to lift that to 20 percent. The airline currently has 11 bases in Europe's largest economy, including Berlin Schoenefeld, Hamburg and Dusseldorf.
All told, Ryanair has reached recognition agreements with about 60 percent of pilot and flight-attendant unions in the markets where it operates, according to a note from Morgan Stanley. The dispute began after a rostering foul up increased staff bargaining power, triggering a campaign for unionization.

On this beautiful June day I felt inspired to blog about an invitation that I created for an art opening held at Lola Home Store, unfortunately LOLA Home closed it's doors in 2011…. oh, how I miss that store! However, my memories of all the special events held there, the artists I discovered, and the design projects I got be to be a part of, still live on. The above invitation was for LOLA's very first art show. The featured artist was Ana Labastida, a highly creative and talented woman.
Here is a photograph of Ana in her Emeryville Studio with her incredible works of art (photograph via sfgate). I got to meet the lovely Ana when she was installing her show at LOLA. She cleverly devised an invisible installation technique using small powerful magnets. I loved how her moths looked like they had landed, naturally, all over the shop… it completely transformed the space!
Creating the invitation was so fun. We chose two photographs of Ana's favorite moths for the front of the card (their wings are made of glass with images collaged onto them, producing the most beautiful shadows).
I hand-lettered the wording in a delicate script and had the wings die-cut so that the invitation became 3-dimensional. The moths truly looked as though they had landed on the card, such a playful introduction to Ana's work!
Here is a photograph of my favorite piece (photograph courtesy of Ana's website). You can check out her entire Moth Series along with her wide range of other amazing works.

This community update was written before yesterday's ruling by Attorney General, Daniel Cameron, regarding the indictment of officers involved in the shooting and death of Breonna Taylor. In many ways, the content of much of this newsletter feels out of sync with this moment and what some members of the Emerson Community may be feeling or needing in this moment. Regretfully, there is no measure of consolation that I can offer to sufficiently address the pain that some of us are experiencing today.
I don't know all of what happened in Breonna Taylor's apartment that night. We may never know.
What I do know is that Breonna Taylor was not a suspect of a crime. She was an EMT who was working to save the lives of people during a pandemic.
What I do know is that she was sleeping in her apartment when all hell broke loose resulting in six shots being fired into her body.
What I do know is that she is one of a long list of unarmed Black people who have been killed as a result of state sanctioned violence.
What I do know is that I am grieving for her, her family, communities of color, and those of us who don't have the privilege of safety while we sleep, run, drive or even breathe.
Today, I will grieve. Tomorrow, I will continue to work for change.
– Sylvia

Message from Sylvia Spears
This past week has been deeply challenging for me, my family, my communities of color, and for feeling people all over the globe. I am so weary. I have spent the past 25 years working to create more diverse, equitable, and socially just communities at colleges and universities. Yet, I can't find real evidence of fundamental transformative change in education or in our society. As a result, this moment represents not only a crisis of consciousness for many but also existential crisis for me on so many levels.
I do find some comfort in the emails and social media contacts I have received unexpectedly from current and former students—some from Emerson, some from Dartmouth College, and even some from the University of Rhode Island. While I continue to question the meaning of my work in light of everything that is occurring, these students tell me that it has not been in vain.
They give me life, joy, and a reason to carry on.
Implementation of New Department of Education Regulations
As many of you are aware, the Department of Education recently published new Title IX regulations. Emerson, along with other colleges and universities across the country, is required to bring its policies and processes for the handling of reports of specific types of power-based interpersonal violence into compliance with these new regulations by August 14.
You may recall that the Presidential Working Group (PWG) recently published its draft report and recommended the establishment of a Standing Committee to facilitate communication and coordination of the College's response to reports of power-based interpersonal violence and to assume responsibility for addressing recent changes to the Department of Education Title IX regulations. Due to the Department of Education's deadline of August 14, for colleges and universities to come into compliance with new regulations, President Pelton and other senior leaders of the College have approved the immediate establishment of an ad hoc Steering Committee and relevant Sub-Committees to advance the work necessary to revise policies, establish new processes, and develop new trainings on Title IX specific to the new regulations. As such, Pam White, Associate Vice President & Title IX and Clery Act Coordinator, and I are convening a Steering Committee and corresponding Sub-Committees to assist us in advancing the necessary work to bring the College into compliance with these new regulations.
The Steering Committee and Sub-Committees members include students, union representation from both staff and faculty, academic deans, staff in areas of the College responsible for aspects of implementation of process changes as well as members of the College's senior leadership team. These committees will focus very narrowly on implementing the new Department of Education Title IX regulations into the College's Sexual Misconduct Policy. This work does not replace the work that is ongoing on the part of the Presidential Working Group, whose focus extended beyond the new regulations but was limited to the student ecosystem of sexual misconduct.
The Presidential Working Group
As many of you are aware, the Presidential Working Group (PWG) recently published its draft report, which includes their findings and recommendations. It is without question that the members of the PWG who participated in this academic year long endeavor did so out of a commitment to Emerson students and to the College. When the PWG launched, I shared with the Berkeley Beacon that the group was taking on an important and herculean task.
The PWG has opened a comment period on their draft report that closes today, June 5. As Vice President for Equity & Social Justice and supervisor for Title IX Access & Equity and the Healing & Advocacy Collective, I have thoughtfully considered the findings and recommendations of the PWG. I have drafted comments that I hope will provide some additional insights and context for this important body of work. Consistent with the public nature of the draft report from the Presidential Working Group, I will also make my comments on the report, as well as the comments submitted by Title IX Access & Equity and the Healing & Advocacy Collective, accessible to the Emerson Community. You can find these comments at: https://bit.ly/sjcresponses2020
In Solidarity
If you are currently looking for ways to engage in solidarity, we encourage you to use the many resources that people have already created explaining white supremacy, structural violence, and how to build an anti-racist practice. We ask that you begin to do your own work to deepen your understanding in lieu of asking individuals and communities of color to do more labor to facilitate your learning or to give you guidance about what to do.
You can find some of these resources compiled at https:/linktr.ee/sjc, as well as watch the SJC LIVE videos on anti-racist practice and power, violence, and institutional betrayals at www.facebook.com/SocialJusticeCtr/videos or read the transcripts at https://bit.ly/sjclivetranscripts. In addition, we are regularly sharing information, links, and art reflecting the brilliance of our communities on Facebook (facebook.com/SocialJusticeCtr) and Instagram (instagram.com/socialjusticectr).

We are writing to you following this weekend of widespread mass protests and community organizing mourning the murders of George Floyd, Tony McDade, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, David McAtee, Nina Pop, and so many individuals whose names do not make headlines in ways that reach collective consciousness. Each of these murders is devastating and now they are happening in the midst of an ongoing pandemic that is disproportionately harming Black, Brown, Indigenous, and immigrant communities.
The violence of racism, white supremacy, and other forms of systemic oppression is a continuing crisis that becomes hypervisible in public moments like this. In this accelerated time, we ask for patience and understanding as we move slowly, with deep intention, thoughtfulness, and care for the ways these ongoing and recent events are also close to home for us, and disorganize the cells of our bodies and the rhythms of our lives. In this intensified moment, we are working daily, both to address acute and persistent harm, as well as to celebrate the resiliency, dignity, and beauty of our communities.
In the days and weeks to come, we will continue to create ways to hold space with communities. We will share more information in the near future.
If you are currently looking for ways to engage in allyship and solidarity, we encourage you to use the many resources that people have already created explaining white supremacy, structural violence, and how to build an anti-racist practice instead of asking individuals and communities of color to do more labor to help create understanding or give guidance on what to do. You can find some of these resources compiled at https:/linktr.ee/sjc, as well as watch or read the transcripts of SJC LIVE on anti-racist practice and power, violence, and institutional betrayals. In addition, we are regularly sharing information, links, and art reflecting the brilliance of our communities on Facebook and instagram.

And the people stayed home. And read books, and listened, and rested, and exercised, and made art, and played games, and learned new ways of being, and were still. And listened more deeply. Some meditated, some prayed, some danced. Some met their shadows.
And the people began to think differently. And the people healed. And, in the absence of people living in ignorant, dangerous, mindless, and heartless ways, the earth began to heal.
And when the danger passed, and the people joined together again, they grieved their losses, and made new choices, and dreamed new images, and created new ways to live and heal the earth fully, as they had been healed.
Words by Kitty O'Meara, Art by April Nemeth, from Little Korboose at https://littlekorboose.com
What an extraordinary period of time in which we are all living. Despite the rapid change and enormous upheaval that has occurred, we are somehow making our way through day-by-day. Students continue to learn, some in the safety of their homes and others as they still seek stability. Faculty continue to teach and finish up the semester after heroically transitioning their courses to an online delivery modality in a week's time. Staff continue to get vital work done from home, while juggling their roles as parents, teachers to their children, and remote service providers.
Y algunos miembros del equipo de trabajo, aquellos que son a menudo pasados por alto, los que logran llegar diariamente a su trabajo para que el resto de nosotros podamos hacer lo que tenemos que hacer. Son ustedes y las personas como ustedes quienes nos sostienen y apoyan en nuestras vidas. Para aquellos que traen la comida, y aquellos que la preparan, los que mantienen nuestros edificios funcionando y los que nos mantienen unidos, sepan que los veo y los aprecio. Siempre han sido y serán esenciales, no por las tareas que realizan sino por quiénes son y las formas en que se mueven en el mundo. Con todo mi respeto, les deseo lo mejor a ustedes y a sus familias, y rezo para que estén protegidos de daños o perjuicios siempre, pero especialmente durante estos momentos difíciles. Ustedes están en mi corazón.
As we move forward, I hope we come out of this haze with more than stories of discomfort, financial hardship, and grief. Perhaps, we will grow into better versions of ourselves. Perhaps, we will learn what it truly means to live in the context of
community. Perhaps, as Rev. angel Kyodo Williams says, we will "tip the balance toward greater justice."
In solidarity with you,
Special Message to the Class of 2020
Your final semester at Emerson certainly has not been what you anticipated or wanted. Instead of marching into an arena for your commencement on May 10, your graduation festivities will most likely take place among a small group of family and friends, some of whom will join you by video. Please know that your accomplishments are so much greater than could ever be fully expressed through any commencement ceremony. Your graduation is really about all of the incredible ways you have grown during your time at Emerson, the deep and enduring relationships you have made, the challenges you have overcome, and the ways in which you have called Emerson to do better and be better. Graduation is often talked about as a time when graduates prepare to launch independently into the world. Yet, we are living through a period of time in which acknowledgment of our collective interdependence is most important. In the weeks and months to come, you will be called to balance the excitement of this new beginning with the uncertainty and complexity of this time. You have what it takes. You have the creativity, the talent, and the fortitude to make it through. You will write, and perform, and produce, and serve, and speak into the world, leading the rest of us into a new and better way to live. To the Class of 2020, I wish you peace and joy as you celebrate all that you have become.
Social Justice Center Expanding its Reach
The Social Justice Center is not only doing work in the context of physical distance and social solidarity, we are also expanding our reach. We continue to provide support and advocacy to individuals and communities, work to advance equity and social justice, foster youth empowerment and creativity, and support the efforts of grassroots organizations who are coordinating mutual aid projects in the Boston area. In addition, in response to the troubling uptick of xenophobic and discriminatory acts against members of the Asian and Asian American communities, we recently launched a new online platform called SJC LIVE for engaging with others about relevant social justice issues of the time.
SJC LIVE is a virtual space for expanding our individual and collective capacities to manifest transformative social change. These Facebook Live conversations seek to center the people and work of racial justice movements, and call us into solidarity through anti-racist action. The videos from our five-part SJC LIVE series on anti-racist practices have been viewed by more than 2400 people, with our recent discussion on Abolition as an Anti-Racist Practice drawing more 600 viewers, including Emersonians out in the world as well as interested people with no connection to Emerson, from as far west as California and as far south as Florida. SJC LIVE is taking a brief hiatus but will be resuming soon with our next series focusing on Power, Violence, and Institutional Betrayals. In the meantime, all SJC LIVE videos can be found on our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/SocialJusticeCtr/videos and accessible transcripts can be downloaded at https://bit.ly/sjclivetranscripts.
Additional Ways We Continue to Work in Support of Community
Power-Based Interpersonal Violence, Title IX and Clery: What It All Means and Why It Matters
In an effort to provide members of the community with a deeper understanding of campus-based responses to power-based interpersonal violence, the Social Justice Center is developing an online toolkit. This resource will provide information to increase understanding of power-based interpersonal violence (PBIV) and the implications for prevention strategies; the range of systems responses including traditional and trauma-informed approaches; information about various campus-based and legal methods of reporting PBIV (criminal, civil, and Title IX processes); the legal foundations of Title IX and the Clery Act, and how these regulations dictate and impact how colleges respond; the breadth of national and local context, including shifting trends related to federal Title IX guidance; as well as the key features of Emerson's Sexual Misconduct policies and processes. It is our hope that this toolkit will help dispel any misinformation, reduce confusion, answer some questions, and clarify the scope of institutional processes that are often unknown.
Healing & Advocacy Collective
In the midst of physical distancing, Healing & Advocacy continues to connect with people online. We are supporting survivors, offering virtual workshops and trauma-informed yoga, engaging via social media, and working on strengthening our infrastructure. If you would like to connect with Healing & Advocacy, feel free to email Greta and Melanie at advocate@emerson.edu.
Title IX Access & Equity
Title IX Access & Equity realizes the importance of being able to report incidents of interpersonal violence even when the College is operating remotely. Therefore, we continue to receive and respond to all reports of sex/gender-based harm consistent with the process outlined in the College's Sexual Misconduct Policy. This includes providing work and classroom accommodations, protective measures, interim measures, formal investigations, and informal processes. We continue to oversee the College's centralized review, investigation, and resolution process for all reports of interpersonal violence. In addition to responding to reports of harm, our office continues to provide monthly training workshops for all employees as well as workshops to various members of our community. We are also available to provide workshops on request. We are here when you need us. To connect with Pam or Ryan, please email titleix@emerson.edu.
Elma Lewis Center
The Elma Lewis Center continues to build and expand community partnerships, including supporting the work of community organizers adapting to the challenges of social solidarity during physical distancing. The Elma Lewis Living Stories project is ongoing, including research, community members' sharing stories for the archive, and the Call to Artists. Youth programs and projects continue after shifting to virtual sessions in mid-March. The Creative Community Network youth held workshops on mutual aid and connecting with Boston-area activists. Youth LEAD participants engaged in group learning about the community impact of COVID-19 on hyperlocal and national levels. And the Massachusetts Temporary Protection Status Youth Committee participated in multimedia workshops to create a YouTube Channel, an advocacy magazine, and hosted Boston Experimental Theatre documentary showings and talkbacks. Our campus partner Jumpstart transitioned from providing in-school support with preschool partners to supporting teachers and families with at-home learning. The ELC is also piloting virtual music and dance events for workers most impacted by COVID-19 to provide a space of joy in the midst of hardship. You can reach the ELC by email at elmalewiscenter@emerson.edu.
Identity-Based Harm (Bias) Incident Reports
This academic year, we received 62 reports of identity-based harm. Although this reflects a slight decrease in the number of reports from the 2018-2019 academic year (68) we must also take into context the mid-semester shift to online learning this spring. The classroom continues to be reported as the highest location in which incidents of identity-based harm occur. Experiences of harm related to ethnicity/culture, race, and gender identity/expression continue to be the most reported. As concerns about COVID-19 increased, there was an uptick in concerns about the targeting of Emersonians who identify as Asian or Asian American while out in the Boston area. Some of this information was shared outside of the identity-based harm reporting process. Aggregate data for the 2019-2020 academic year will be updated to reflect incidents received through the formal end of the semester.
Title IX Access & Equity Reports
During the 2019-2020 academic year, 85 reports of violations of the College's Sexual Misconduct Policy were received by Title IX Access & Equity. Reports include a range of behaviors and are not limited to sexual assault. Of the 85 reports, Title IX Access & Equity received requests from 6 reporting parties for investigations. All requests were moved forward for investigation. At the request of students or based on an assessment by the staff of Title IX Access & Equity, 20 instances of accommodations, interim measures or protective measures were issued. These measures include some singular or combination of protective measures, including but not limited to No Contact Orders, Stay Away Directives; Third-Party accommodations, and work and classroom accommodations.
From Haymarket Books
The Pandemic is Portal – A Conversation with Arundhati Roy, Hosted by Imani Perry
www.haymarketbooks.org/blogs/130-arundhati-roy-the-pandemic-is-a-portal
In her latest essay, "The Pandemic Is a Portal" — from her forthcoming Haymarket Books publication Azadi: Freedom. Fascism. Fiction. — Arundhati Roy writes:
What is this thing that has happened to us? It's a virus, yes. In and of itself it holds no moral brief. But it is definitely more than a virus. Whatever it is, coronavirus has made the mighty kneel and brought the world to a halt like nothing else could. Our minds are still racing back and forth, longing for a return to "normality," trying to stitch our future to our past and refusing to acknowledge the rupture. But the rupture exists. And in the midst of this terrible despair, it offers us a chance to rethink the doomsday machine we have built for ourselves.

A Message from Sylvia Spears, Vice President for Equity & Social Justice
Welcome back Emerson students and faculty, and greetings to new members of the Emerson Community. I offer a special shout-out to Emerson's staff who have been plugging away all summer with just a week or two of reprieve.
As the fall semester gets underway, I am struck by the throngs of students hanging out in front of the Little Building, a spot once barricaded with scaffolding. I am also energized by the buzz on Boylston St. and delight in the joyous reunions that occur during the 18 second walk signal across Boylston and Tremont. There is something special about that crossing; it reminds me of all the directions from which we have come to be here in this place and in this moment to learn, work, and create.
This is a time of significant transition for all of us. New students hope to find their way, those of us who are returning (or never left) try to settle back into a routine, and all of us feel the pangs of summer's waning. The sun is setting earlier. Soon, the crisp fall winds will start to dance through the air.
And we begin again.
New Social Justice Center Events
The Social Justice Center is pleased to announce our Fall 2019 series of events and programs. See the full poster of events below. Gatherings range from Community jam sessions and art events in the new Elma Lewis Center space (148 Boylston St.) to our new Freedom Fridays program beginning this Friday, September 6.
Freedom Friday, September 6, noon @ Common Ground, 120 Boylston St. 10th floor
Grow Some Roots: The transition from summer to fall can leave us feeling unsteady. As the temperature drops and the winds begin to swirl, take a moment to plant your own seeds and grow greater rootedness. Leave with your own potted plant to add to your living space.
Title IX Update
As many of you are aware, the Office of Title IX Access and Equity has been searching for a new Deputy Title IX Coordinator & Investigator. Although the College retains a number of external investigators who continue to conduct Title IX investigations for Emerson, we also seek to have a Title IX Investigator on staff. Our search processes last year were unsuccessful. In an effort to expand the recruitment of viable candidates, we have hired a firm to assist us with this important search. They have been actively recruiting candidates on our behalf during the summer and we expect to be able to fill this position soon.
Identity-based Harm (Bias, Micro-aggressions, and Structural Oppression)
In 2016, in response to student concerns, the Social Justice Center (formerly the Division of Diversity & Inclusion) developed the Bias Response Program in an effort to provide a central location for reporting incidents of bias. This summer, SJC staff revisited the program to assess its alignment with our current foundational values. In addition, we sought to clarify the purpose, the scope, and the authority of the program.
Our new approach to identity-based harm (bias, micro-aggressions, and structural oppression) seeks to affirm the lives, experiences, and resilience of people and communities who are most marginalized, while also acknowledging that interpersonal harm in the form of bias, micro-aggressions, and structural oppression continues to occur, even in the places where we should feel most accepted and validated.
For information on identity-based harm or how to share your experience, please visit www.emerson.edu/bias.
Community Centered Projects and Courses
Are you a student, staff, or faculty member interested in developing community-centered projects or courses that are built on authentic relationships? The Social Justice Center invites you to a workshop about practices that do this within a social justice frame. Deep experience welcomed. No prior experience necessary. Light lunch provided.
October 30, 12:00 – 1:30, ELC, 148 Boylston St.

I have come to recognize the month of April as a time when tensions rise, student resilience wanes, and the hurts that have been held silently all year spill over into the community. What occurs is not related to workload stressors or the amount of GRIT students demonstrate. It is about the cumulative impact of daily conditions that slowly eat away at students' sense of agency and their ability to maintain a sense of control over their lives and their well-being. What we have seen in the last weeks of this semester is about much more than a single incident or even individual acts by members of our community. This moment is about the impact of structures and systems that remain invisible to most of us and yet have an impact on all of us. It is a reflection of what is in the air that we breathe. For some of us, the air is toxic. Simply put, students have reached their human limits.
So now what? Do we turn our eyes away from students' concerns out of our own anger, hurt, or shame? Do we reject the validity of students' pain because we don't like the way the message was delivered? Or do we sit in the discomfort of it all and work to right the real wrongs? I suppose one could argue that any of these responses is appropriate but only the last one will move us forward and toward a more reconciled and compassionate community.
Mapping the Margins of RePresentation at Emerson: A Response to Students' Call
The Social Justice Center recently released Mapping the Margins of RePresentation at Emerson: A Response to Students' Call. Through the analysis of existing institutional data, this Social Justice Center study reveals disproportionate representation of specific student demographic groups in Emerson service or program interaction based on their representation in the Emerson community, showing systemic roots of students' experiences of marginalization. These findings suggest that specific phenomena exist that may be having an adverse impact on specific student communities.
Although the study did not seek to determine causal or correlational relationships, it is our hope that this book will serve as a catalyst for the Emerson community to examine what may be causing disproportionate representation and to create substantive change for students who are most impacted. In Mapping the Margins of RePresentation, you will find information about why we did this project, who was involved, how we approached our work, and what we found, situated in the context of national data, Black Feminist Theory, Transformative Justice, Critical Trans Politics, Abolition, and Decolonization Theory that reflects a broader structural context. "We hope that this work honors students' lived experiences," said Sylvia Spears, Vice President for Equity & Social Justice. "The implications of these findings are significant. We encourage members of the community to read the book, sit with its impact, do your own work, and move toward ways of doing things that create the possibility of freedom and liberation for everyone." Limited copies of the book may be available by contacting sjc@emerson.edu.
Bias Incident Reports: Annual Update
This academic year, we received 48 reports of incidents of bias, which reflects a drop in the number of reports from the 2017-2018 academic year (68). There was a slight decrease in the number of bias incident reports received from students and a slight increase in the number of reports submitted by staff and faculty.
Faculty continue to be most reported as individuals engaging in bias. Bias incidents related to ethnicity/culture, race, and gender identity/expression continue to be the most reported types of bias. In the past two weeks, there has been a significant uptick in the number of bias incident reports received. Aggregate data for the 2018-2019 academic year will be updated to reflect bias incidents received through Commencement.
The Emerson360: Community Climate Student Survey, which focuses on student perceptions of general campus climate dimensions as well as topics related to power-based interpersonal violence, was administered during the fall semester. The survey had a 9% response rate, which is significantly lower than the response rate for the 2014 survey (32%). The following is a high-level summary of the findings from this year's Emerson360: Student Survey.
The highest positive score (94%) was in response to the statement, "Diversity and inclusion are important values to me." Other high positive scores were in the bystander intervention dimensions, with 83% of participants responding positively to the statement, "I would report senior leadership, staff, or faculty who engage in power-based interpersonal violence;" 80% responding positively to the statement, "I would speak up to other students who make inappropriate or hurtful comments or gestures;" 78% responding positively to the statement, "I can recognize signs of power-based interpersonal violence;" and 74% responding positively to the statement, "I would report others who engage in power-based interpersonal violence."
Of greatest significance this year is the drop in the percentage of overall positive scores in comparison to the 2014 survey. The overall percentage of positive scores dropped from 64% in 2014 to 53% in 2018. The lowest positive scores were related to statements regarding bystander attitudes. Scores related to fair treatment dropped from 70% positive in 2014 to 56% positive in 2018. In addition, knowledge of Title IX polices dropped from 66% positive response in 2014 to 59% in 2018. In relation to on-campus locations, 12% of student survey participants responded "yes" to the question, "Has anyone ever displayed behavior that made you feel afraid for your personal safety, feel fear, or alter your daily activities?" 5% of participants indicated being in a relationship with someone who tried to control them, and 17% of survey participants indicated that someone had made unwelcome sexual advances toward them or unwelcome requests for sex.
The Elma Lewis Center Relocates to New Space at 148 Boylston Street
The Social Justice Center recently celebrated the upcoming relocation of the Elma Lewis Center to a new street level space at 148 Boylston St. The celebration, primarily for Boston area community groups, was standing room only for the entirety of the 3-hour event with an estimated 150 people in attendance. Local community members, some Emerson staff and faculty, security guards, and students filled the space. Local spoken word artists, singers, and other performers brought energy and joy to the event. We are pleased to share that some friends, former students, and family members of Elma Lewis '43, were also in attendance — Barry and Sandra Gaither, Sandi Bagley, Larry Blumstack, and Kafi Meadows (Elma Lewis's great niece) and her daughter. We expect to host another open house in the early fall semester next year.
During the 2018-2019 academic year, 77 reports of violations of the College's Sexual Misconduct Policy were received by Title IX Access & Equity. Reports include a range of behaviors and are not limited to sexual assault. Of the 77 reports, Title IX Access & Equity received requests from 8 reporting parties for investigations. All requests were moved forward for investigation. At the request of students or based on the College's own assessment, 21 instances of accommodations, interim measures or protective measures were issued. These measures include some singular or combination of interim suspensions, No Contact Orders, Stay Away Directives, housing accommodations, and classroom accommodations.
The search for a Deputy Title IX Coordinator/Investigator continues. To date, 31 applicants have been received, 10 candidates have been considered, and 4 have been invited to participate in first-round interviews. No candidates have progressed to on-campus interviews. Despite advertisement in national outlets and active recruitment, we have not identified candidates with sufficient Title IX investigation experience.

Updates – October 10, 2018 – Indigenous Peoples Day
October 10, 2018 socialjusticecenter	Leave a comment
A Call from Native People
Native people have been calling for an end to the observance of Columbus Day for decades. This call is not just about changing the name of the holiday. It is an act that recognizes the genocide of millions of Indigenous people, the theft of lands that began with the arrival of Columbus, and the historic and current wrongs committed against the Indigenous people and their sovereignty.
Samantha M. Ivery has joined the Social Justice Center as Director of Diversity & Equity Initiatives. Samantha brings depth of experience in advancing anti-oppression and social justice efforts. As a former Assistant Dean in the Office of Pluralism and Leadership at Dartmouth College as well as Director of the Center for Women and Gender, Samantha's programs, development activities, workshops, and engagement with students and student groups were informed by critical social theories including Black Feminist Thought and Critical Race Theory.
Most recently, as Director of Projects for Campus Equity &
Inclusion at Bennington College, Samantha developed the strategic foundation for the college's new equity and inclusion initiative. She also designed and co-facilitated anti-oppression dialogue groups for faculty and staff, partnered with the Library staff to curate social justice online materials, and served as a resource to the Bennington Community around diversity and equity issues.
Samantha is completing her Ph.D. in Higher Education at Indiana University. Her dissertation focuses on undergraduate black women's perceptions of gendered racial micro-aggressions. Samantha has taught courses at the undergraduate and graduate levels. As Director of Diversity & Equity Initiatives, Samantha will work collaboratively with the Vice President for Equity & Social Justice in advancing diversity, equity, and social justice efforts at Emerson. Please welcome Samantha to our community.
Advisory: This section contains information that may emotionally affect survivors.
Just the Facts: One in four women and one in six men will be sexually assaulted in their lifetime, which for Emerson students would fill the Culture Majestic Theater. One in two trans people will be sexually assaulted in their lifetime. In 8 out of 20 cases, the individual committing the assault is known to the survivor. Only 28% of survivors report to police. Only 2% of sexual assaults reported to police are found to be false (U.S. Depart of Justice). Contact the Healing & Advocacy Collective at advocate@emerson.edu or at 180 Tremont St. Rooms 303 & 304 for confidential support and advocacy. Report concerns to the Title IX Coordinator at 617-824-8999 or at titleix@emerson.edu, 8 Park Plaza, Room 230.

Q: How to retrieve column value of sql server table and store it in label.Text of c# ASP.Net My question is
Suppose I have a Column "fname" whose value is 'Nikhil' in table "profile".
How to retrieve column value of sql server table and store it in label.Text of c# ASP.Net.
I mean what should be the code if I want label text to be "fname" value that is "Nikhil"
Connection is already done properly because I am able to display table data in Gridview.
label1.Text = ?; // I want fname here
Regards,
Nikhil

A: Go to MSDN to learn it http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/bb188199.
Here's a sample on how to connect to a database.
    private static void ReadOrderData(string connectionString)
    {
        string queryString =
            "SELECT OrderID, CustomerID FROM dbo.Orders;";

        using (SqlConnection connection =
                   new SqlConnection(connectionString))
        {
            SqlCommand command =
                new SqlCommand(queryString, connection);
            connection.Open();

            SqlDataReader reader = command.ExecuteReader();

            // Call Read before accessing data.
            while (reader.Read())
            {
                Console.WriteLine(String.Format("{0}, {1}",
                    reader[0], reader[1]));
            }

            // Call Close when done reading.
            reader.Close();
        }
    }

There are many resources out there, try to search first before posting question.

A: Firstly, I established a connection
SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection("data source=.\\SQLEXPRESS;Integrated Security=SSPI;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|aspnetdb.mdf;User Instance=true");
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand();

and then,
cmd.CommandText = "select fname from table where qid=1";
cmd.Connection = con;
string fname = ((string)cmd.ExecuteScalar());

or
Label1.text = ((string)cmd.ExecuteScalar());

Four more men came forward Monday to accuse a Catholic priest who formerly was assigned to churches in Queensbury and Glens Falls of child sexual abuse.
Two of the men told reporters that father Gary Mercure molested them for years when he was the priest at Our Lady of the Annunciation church in Queensbury in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
Both spoke at a news conference in Latham on condition their names not be used, and said Mercure abused them over 7 years, beginning when they were 8 years old.
Two others told reporters that Mercure committed sexual misconduct with them when Mercure was assigned to St. Teresa of Avila Church in the 1970s. One, Michael Flynn of Clifton Park and Lake George, gave his name, while the other did not.
All four spoke during a news conference organized by the Capital District chapter of the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests (SNAP).
It came eight days after the Roman Catholic Diocese of Albany announced that Mercure had taken a paid leave of absence amid an investigation of allegations he abused a boy while assigned to the Queensbury church.
That alleged victim was not among those who spoke at Monday's event.
The four who did come forward told of "grooming" by and sexual relationships with Mercure, who spent at least 12 years at Our Lady of the Annunciation and St. Mary's in Glens Falls, before he left St. Mary's in 1995 for what he called "health reasons."

Order [Ghost Notes]: Pioneering Spirits of Texas Music. "Ghost notes" is a musical term for sounds barely audible, a wisp lingering around the beat, yet somehow driving the groove. The Texas musicians profiled here, ranging from 1920s gospel performers to the first psychedelic band, are generally not well known, but the impact of their early contributions on popular music is unmistakable. This beautiful Tim Kerr-illustrated collection provides more background on the Texas from which these artists sprang, fully formed.
All Over the Map: True Heroes of Texas Music (North Texas Lives of Musician Series) available in paperback and Kindle editions. A lavishly illustrated collection of 42 profiles of Texas music pioneers, most underrated or overlooked. All Over the Map: True Heroes of Texas Music covers the musical landscape of a most musical state. The first edition was published in 2005 to wide acclaim. This second edition includes updated information, a bonus section of six behind-the-scenes heroes, and fifteen new portraits of Lefty Frizzell, Janis Joplin, and others, spanning such diverse styles as blues, country, hip-hop, conjunto, gospel, rock, and jazz.

The last factor to consider is the type or form of stairs. There are three forms of wooden stairs, the stairs are in the notch, overlapping the stairs, and stair-crossed. The stairs are in the notch, including the oldest types of stairs, once these steps are used in residences of traditional stage that can reach 2 meters high with a fairly steep slope about 60 degrees. The stairs are fairly placed on the hard ground surface and the top edge of the floor beams are connected to the houses on stilts.
Rung overlapping widely used as the main staircase as it saves space requirements and form connections staircase construction adds aesthetic value to the space. This type of stairs that slope is about 24 degrees to 45 degrees has a characteristic partially hidden under the stair steps above it. This type of overlapping ladder can open on the inside (between the stairs was not closed) or it could be closed (covered with wooden boards). It is advisable to use a closed overlapping between the steps, stairs and board lid mothers can work together to distribute the load it receives to be forwarded to the foundation.


Here at Avian and Exotic Animal Medical Center, we recommend periodic physical examinations to keep your pet healthy.
Birds, small mammals, and exotics are very good at hiding symptoms of being sick until they are very ill.
Our goal with routine wellness examinations is to catch any potential problems before they become serious. We may notice something on the examination that we should follow up on, potentially catching a disease that may be affecting your pet. We hope to reveal your pet's illness before you even notice that something is wrong. Often, by that point, it may be a bit too late.
During your examination, we will discuss your pet's care to make sure that you are properly caring for them. We may also hear you voice some concerns that you have. This will allow us to look further to make sure your pet is completely healthy.
Please don't hesitate to contact us today to schedule an examination, especially if your pet has not been seen in awhile.

Coronavirus pandemic 'accelerating', WHO says it advising Olympics on risk
Reuters , Monday 23 Mar 2020
World Health Organization (WHO) Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus (AFP)
The pandemic of disease caused by the coronavirus is accelerating, the World Health Organization (WHO) said on Monday, with more than 300,000 cases now recorded and infections reported from nearly every country worldwide.
While it took 67 days from the first reported case to reach the first 100,000 cases of COVID-19, it took only 11 days for the second 100,000 cases, and just four days for the third 100,000 cases, WHO director-general Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, said.
"But we are not prisoners to statistics. We're not helpless bystanders. We can change the trajectory of this pandemic," Tedros told an online briefing for more than 300 journalists.
He called for global political commitment to change the trajectory of the pandemic, urging countries to take both defensive and attacking measures.
"Asking people to stay at home and other social distancing measures are an important way of slowing down the spread of the virus and buying time, but they are defensive measures," he said.
"To win we need to attack the virus with aggressive and targeted tactics - testing every suspect case, isolating and caring for every confirmed cases and tracing and quarantining every close contact."
Asked about the 2020 Olympics due to be held in Tokyo, Mike Ryan, head of WHO's emergencies programme, said the WHO was feeding into deliberations by the International Olympic Committee, the Japanese government and the Tokyo 2020 Committee.
Australia and Canada have already said they are withdrawing from the 2020 Games and organisers are facing increasing pressure to postpone them first time in their 124-year modern history.
"I believe a decision will be made very soon," Ryan said.
He said any decision to postpone the Games would be made by Japan and the IOC, adding: "We have every confidence that the Japanese government and the IOC will not proceed with any Games should they be dangerous to athletes or spectators."

Overview of transportation in Saudi Arabia
To the uninformed, transportation in Saudi Arabia may seem limited and underdeveloped. However, the country has made significant investments in its infrastructure in recent years and has a diverse transportation system that includes highways, airports, seaports, and rail.
The Saudi government has been actively working to improve the transportation system and make it more efficient, with the goal of reducing dependence on oil and diversifying the economy. The country's main airports are located in the capital, Riyadh, and the commercial center, Jeddah.
The country also has a modern highway system that connects major cities, as well as several seaports that handle both cargo and passenger traffic. Additionally, Saudi Arabia has been developing a high-speed rail system, known as the Saudi Landbridge, which will connect the Red Sea and the Persian Gulf.
Saudi Arabia has a well-developed public transportation system, consisting of buses, trains, and a metro system. The bus system, operated by the Saudi Arabian Public Transport Company (SAPTCO), provides transportation throughout the country, with routes connecting major cities and towns. The Saudi Railways Organization (SRO) operates both passenger and freight trains, connecting major cities such as Riyadh, Jeddah, and Dammam.
The metro system in Riyadh, operated by the Arriyadh Development Authority (ADA), is currently under construction and is set to open in the near future. The metro system has greatly improved public transportation in the city and reduced traffic congestion.
Buses in Saudi Arabia play a crucial role in the country's transportation system, providing a reliable and affordable way for people to travel both within and between cities. The Saudi Arabian Public Transport Company (SAPTCO) operates both intercity and city buses, connecting major destinations such as airports, train stations, and popular tourist spots. The buses are equipped with modern amenities, including air conditioning and comfortable seating, making the journey more pleasant for passengers.
In recent years, there has been a push to improve the bus system in Saudi Arabia, with efforts being made to increase the frequency of buses and expand the network of routes. The goal is to make public transportation more accessible to people, particularly in less developed areas of the country.
Intercity buses in Saudi Arabia are operated by the Saudi Arabian Public Transport Company (SAPTCO). These buses provide transportation between major cities and towns, with routes connecting places like Riyadh, Jeddah, Mecca, and Medina. The buses are modern and comfortable, with amenities such as air conditioning and reclining seats. They also offer a convenient and affordable way for people to travel long distances within the country.
SAPTCO also operates city buses in Saudi Arabia. These buses provide transportation within cities and towns, connecting different neighborhoods and areas. They are an efficient and cost-effective way for people to get around, especially for those without access to a car. The buses run frequently, and routes are designed to cover major destinations such as shopping centers, hospitals, and universities. Many cities have a network of bus routes that make it easy for people to get where they need to go.
Trains in Saudi Arabia are operated by the Saudi Railways Organization (SRO) and are a modern and efficient mode of transportation. The SRO operates both passenger and freight trains, connecting major cities such as Riyadh, Jeddah, and Dammam. The passenger trains offer a comfortable and convenient way for people to travel long distances within the country, with amenities such as air conditioning, reclining seats, and on board entertainment.
The trains are also equipped with modern safety features and are operated by experienced staff. The freight trains also play an important role in the country's economy, transporting goods and cargo throughout the country.
Haramain High-Speed Rail: The Haramain High-Speed Rail is a high-speed railway project that connects the holy cities of Mecca and Medina in Saudi Arabia. The railway line runs for a total of 450 kilometers and is operated by the Saudi Railways Organization (SRO). The train has a top speed of 300 kilometers per hour and can transport up to 60 million passengers per year. The project was completed in 2018 and has greatly reduced travel time between the two cities, making it a popular transportation option for both locals and tourists.
Saudi Landbridge: The Saudi Landbridge is a railway project that connects the ports of Jeddah and Dammam, allowing for the efficient transportation of goods between the two cities. The railway line runs for a total of 1,300 kilometers and is operated by the Saudi Railways Organization (SRO). The project was completed in 2017 and has greatly improved the logistics and supply chain in the country by reducing transit times and costs. It has also helped to increase the competitiveness of Saudi ports in the region and has attracted more international trade.
Taxis in Saudi Arabia are a popular mode of transportation for both locals and tourists. The country has a large fleet of taxis that are operated by private companies and are easily recognizable by their distinctive yellow and black color scheme. The taxis in Saudi Arabia are equipped with air conditioning, GPS and payment systems, making them comfortable and convenient for travelers.
The fares are metered and are based on the distance traveled, with additional charges for additional passengers and bags. The service is widely available in all cities of Saudi Arabia, with many of them also offer online booking and tracking options for the convenience of travelers. Traditional taxis are also available in the form of "limousine" which are luxury cars that are most commonly used for airport pickups, business trips or events.
Traditional taxis: Traditional taxis in Saudi Arabia are operated by private companies and are easily recognizable by their distinctive yellow and black color scheme. These taxis can be hailed on the street or found at taxi stands in popular tourist areas. They are equipped with air conditioning, GPS, and payment systems, making them comfortable and convenient for travelers. The fares are metered and based on the distance traveled, with additional charges for additional passengers and bags.
Ride-hailing services: Careem and Uber are two of the most popular ride-hailing services in Saudi Arabia. They offer a convenient and affordable alternative to traditional taxis. Both services can be accessed through their respective mobile apps, where users can book a ride, track their driver's location, and make payments.Careem and Uber also offer a wide range of vehicles, including luxury cars and larger vehicles for groups. The fare is calculated based on the distance traveled, and the user can see the estimated fare before booking the ride. Both services are widely available in all cities of Saudi Arabia, making them a convenient option for travelers.
Personal transportation in Saudi Arabia has undergone significant changes in recent years with the introduction of new technologies and innovations. One of the most notable changes is the increasing popularity of electric cars in the country. The government has implemented several initiatives to promote the use of electric vehicles, such as tax exemptions, subsidies, and the installation of charging stations.
Additionally, ride-hailing services like Uber and Careem have become increasingly popular among residents, providing convenient and affordable transportation options for those living in urban areas. Furthermore, the Saudi Vision 2030 has also focused on encouraging the use of personal transportation options like bicycles and e-bikes. This is in line with the country's effort to reduce dependency on fossil fuels and promote a more sustainable transportation system.
Cars in Saudi Arabia are a reflection of the country's love for luxury and opulence. The Kingdom is home to some of the world's most high-end and expensive cars, with many residents owning multiple vehicles. The market for luxury cars is particularly strong in the country, with brands like Rolls-Royce, Ferrari, and Lamborghini having a significant presence.
Additionally, the country's strong oil industry has also led to a significant number of high-performance sports cars on the road. However, with increasing concerns around the environment and traffic congestion, there is a growing push for more eco-friendly and electric cars in the country. The government is also taking steps to encourage the use of public transportation and alternative modes of transportation to reduce the number of cars on the road.
Owning a car is a popular option in Saudi Arabia, as it provides individuals with the freedom and flexibility to travel at their own convenience. Car ownership is also seen as a status symbol and a way to showcase one's wealth and success. However, owning a car also comes with its own set of responsibilities, such as maintenance, insurance, and parking costs. Additionally, with the high cost of living and the expense of owning a car, not everyone can afford to buy a car.
Renting a car, on the other hand, is a more cost-effective option for those who need a car on a temporary basis. This is especially useful for tourists, business travelers, or those who only need a car for a short period of time. Car rental companies in Saudi Arabia offer a wide range of vehicles to choose from, including luxury cars and sports cars. Renting a car also eliminates the need for long-term maintenance and insurance costs, and the car rental company takes care of these expenses.
Overall, owning a car is a more permanent solution for those who need a car on a regular basis, while renting a car is a more cost-effective and flexible option for those who need a car for a short period of time.
Motorcycles have become an increasingly popular mode of transportation in Saudi Arabia, particularly among young adults and urban dwellers. Not only are they more affordable than cars, but they also provide a sense of freedom and independence for riders. The Saudi government has also recognized the growing demand for motorcycles and has implemented measures to promote their use, such as providing dedicated motorcycle lanes in major cities.
However, the use of motorcycles is still heavily regulated, with strict laws and regulations in place to ensure rider safety. The use of helmets is mandatory and riders are required to have a valid motorcycle license. Despite these regulations, the popularity of motorcycles continues to grow in Saudi Arabia, providing an efficient and cost-effective transportation option for many.
Bicycles have traditionally been a less common mode of transportation in Saudi Arabia. Still, in recent years, there has been a growing interest in using bikes to stay active and reduce pollution. The government has also been promoting cycling to encourage a healthy lifestyle and reduce the country's dependence on oil. Many new bike lanes and trails have been built in urban areas, and cycling clubs have been established to bring together enthusiasts.
Additionally, some cities have implemented bike-sharing programs, making it easier for people to access bicycles for short trips. Despite the traditional cultural and religious barriers, cycling is gaining popularity among the young generations in Saudi Arabia as a healthy and eco-friendly mode of transportation.
In conclusion, Saudi Arabia offers a diverse range of transportation options that cater to the needs of its citizens and visitors. From the high-speed Haramain Rail that connects the holy cities of Mecca and Medina, to the Saudi Landbridge that improves the logistics and supply chain in the country. The country has also been promoting cycling as a way to encourage a healthy lifestyle and reduce pollution.
All of these options make it easy for people to get around the country and explore all that it has to offer. Whether you're a traveler or a local, this blog will help you navigate the transportation options in Saudi Arabia and make your next trip a breeze.

Josephine Pryde How They Met 18.01.2008 - 29.02.2008
How They Met
Part 1 – Mother and her house
Part 2 – Sex
Sarah Staton Josephine Pryde
Gabriele Senn Galerie and Galerie Bleich-Rossi are proud to start 2008 with a brace of exhibitions by Sarah Staton and Josephine Pryde. The first concerns the life of objects, the second, a currency of exchange. The exhibition poetry is by Ellen Cantor.
These shows are about how they got together – not for this. They are not inside each other's heads. One says collaborate; the other curate. It goes back to 1987. They have known each other since they were little girls. They left comfortable homes and the infuriating emotion of the objects that cluttered them for the empty life of art students in London. Madonna was speaking, a twisted entrepreneur appropriating the subculture, its slogans, in her drive for artistic expression. Mothers got Louise Bourgeois, and her catalogues, sometimes as gifts. They played one off the other to get by. They demonstrate this.
They identify what they have in common that can promote solidarity between women. Presumably they think this is something that can be promoted. In the first phase, they built their sociality on their shared belief that art was precious and unique and not commercial. In the second, they agreed to overthrow tedious piety by commandeering the vulgarity of commerce and turning it against the power being exerted through the very idea of modern high culture.
Now, thankfully at last fully socialised, they review the tropes. How feeble were they?Why attempt to establish a working partnership? Even as a fake? Now? Where can you drive the autobiographical? Where will it drive you? What does the labour that is self knowledge look like anyway?
Sarah Staton lives and works in Sheffield and also London. She has had exhibitions recently at Mount Stuart, Isle of Bute in 2007 and the Christian Nagel Galerie in Berlin in 2004.
Josephine Pryde lives and works in London. She showed 'Hollow Inside' at Galerie Neu in Berlin in 2007 and 'Maids & Magnetism' at Reena Spaulings Fine Art in New York in 2006.
Ellen Cantor lives and works in London. She will make a solo exhibition at Participant in New York in spring 2008.
