In Celebration of Earth’s Day, a photo from inside the International Ocean Discovery Program’s (#IODP) Gulf Coast Repository (GCR) at Texas A&M University, in College Station, Texas. The #GCR stores deep sea sediment cores from #IODP and all its predecessors: the Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP), the Ocean Drilling Program (ODP), and the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP). The cores stored at the GCR are from the Pacific Ocean, the Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico, and the Southern Ocean. The GCR houses over 100 kilometers of core in approximately 15,000 square feet of refrigerated space. Similar core repositories in Bremen, Germany and Kochi, Japan, store cores from the Atlantic, Arctic and Indian Oceans, and the marginal seas west of the Pacific rim.
The International Ocean Discovery Program: Exploring the Earth under the Sea (IODP) continues over five decades of international collaboration to recover geological data and samples from beneath the ocean floor to study the history and dynamics of Planet Earth. IODP is guided by the science plan Illuminating Earth's Past, Present, and Future.
Today, scientists who conduct this ship-board research are drawn from 26 countries that make financial contributions to operate the IODP drilling platforms. Scientist participate in expeditions conducted using multiple ships and drilling platforms. Texas A&M University houses the Science Operator, which operates the scientific drillship #JOIDESResolution. Since its beginnings in the mid-20th century, scientific ocean drilling represents the longest running and most successful international collaboration among the Earth sciences. Over the years, this scientific collaboration has provided deep insight into Earth’s dynamic nature including tectonic processes such as volcanism, rifting, and subduction, ocean circulation, climate change, planetary bulk chemistry, subseafloor microbiological communities, and ocean basin formation.

Healing Touch Program's 2014 Worldwide Conference Instructor's Gathering, Schaumburg, IL, August 14-17
The Ceramics Program, Office for the Arts at Harvard, in cooperation with the Harvard Graduate School of Design (GSD), is proud to present the student exhibit “Ceramic Material Formation - Harvard Graduate School of Design” at the Ceramics Program’s new state-of-the art facility at 224 Western Avenue, Allston, MA. The exhibit will be on view from February 5 – March 4, 2016 with a reception on Friday, February 19th from 5-7 PM. Gallery hours are M-F, 10am – 6pm and weekends, 10am – 5pm or by appointment.
Ceramic Material Formation showcases the results of semester-long group research projects undertaken by 29 Harvard Graduate School of Design students with the guidance of the Ceramics Program, Office for the Arts at Harvard and with support from the Spanish Ceramic Tile Manufacturer’s Association (ASCER). Using fabrication methods such as 3D printing and CNC milling as well as manual processes more traditional to the ceramics studio environment such as slip casting and turning, students explored novel applications for ceramics in architectural design.
Projects on display include experimental designs for ceramic shingles and bricks, water filtration systems, evaporative cooling systems and more.

PORTLAND, Ore. - The strength of the Army Reserve is only as strong as the relationships that support the Soldiers within it. The Army Reserve works to improve the resiliency of those relationships with a chaplain-led program called Strong Bonds.
The 88th Regional Support Command conducts more than 20 Strong Bond events a year, the most recent hosted 32 couples in Portland, Ore., April 4-6.
During the event, participants were given tools and information to enhance communication and healthier relationships with a nationally recognized curriculum called Prevention Relationship Enhancement Program, or PREP. Using this curriculum participants are led through video and workbook-supported discussions on various aspects of communication, personalities and problem solving.
This is especially important for Army Reserve couples according to the 88th RSC Deputy Command Chaplain, Lt. Col. Robert Brady.
“Army Reserve families have a much more complex set of circumstances than their civilian counterparts,” said Brady. “They must balance not only their civilian careers and relationships, but also manage and navigate through deployments, battle assemblies, annual training, schools, and various other military obligations which cause interruptions in life.”
“Additionally, Army Reserve families are typically geographically dispersed and don’t have ready access to resources available on active duty installations such as Army Community Services, behavioral health services, and family life chaplain counseling,” said Brady.
Maj. Virginia Emery, chaplain, 88th RSC Strong Bonds Program manager, said this program is open to and applicable to all couples no matter where they are in their relationships.
“This training is for everyone from newlyweds to those celebrating their 30th anniversary,” said Emery. “It’s also great to have couples who have not been together long to see and gain insights from those who have,” said Emery.
Sgt. Maj. Andrea Jusino and Sgt. 1st Class James Jusino, of the 75th Training Division, are a dual military couple who live in Damascus, Ore. Though married for 31 years, they said the Strong Bonds training benefits them directly as well as gives them tools to help others.
“Many of the things taught at Strong Bonds are applicable in all aspects of life,” said Andrea. “We both have our civilian jobs and children, but we are also Soldiers and can share the tools we have been given with all of them.”
“The communication tools very relevant,” said Andrea. “Life happens and the longer you put something off the more it festers and I think that’s why couples get divorced – because they don’t know how to communicate.”
Although the training is led by chaplains, Strong Bonds is not a ministry event said Emery.
“Strong Bonds is a skills-based training event designed to enhance relationships – regardless of theologies or beliefs,” said Emery. “It is run by chaplains, but the training is not coming from a theological standpoint so that it can reach out to all Army Reserve relationships.”
First Lt. Paulo Quijano, of the 334th Chemical Company, and his husband William reside in Seattle and were married last year upon the repeal of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell." Like many of the other newlywed couples, they decided to attend the training to learn some useful tools and be able to incorporate them in their relationship early on.
“It’s good that you don’t wait till there is a problem,” said Paulo. “A lot of this program is about being able to identify problems and frame them correctly. If I can identify issues and define them before they become a problem, then we can work on it before it turns into a bigger issue.”
Will said he was surprised and happy that it wasn’t just another class that focused on how to incorporate the Army into your life.
“It’s not just about military skills,” said Will, “but teaches and gives tools on how we can grow as a couple – and how we can improve our marriage.”
According to Brady, the Strong Bonds program has a substantial impact on the force because of what it does and also what it prevents.
“Who cares if you have the best Soldier in the world if he is consumed with a disintegrating relationship,” said Brady. “If you don’t care for the foundations of our military it will suffer. Every leader realizes that it doesn’t matter if you have bullets if you don’t have a shooter who is focused and able to do his job.”
Cpl. Michael Greenman, of the 364th Expeditionary Sustainment Command, and his wife Eve reside in Oakridge, Ore., and decided to attend the Strong Bonds event after being told about it at their unit.
Michael and Eve have been married for two years, but have known each other for 22 years. Eve said in that time they had developed a very strong friendship and were gratified by the program’s emphasis on that aspect of relationships.
“One thing that it really enforces is friendship,” said Eve. “You have to have that in a relationship otherwise you don’t have all that special stuff. It’s not just about being married, it’s about being friends – that’s what’s important.”
Everyone can benefit from this type training and it is truly worth the investment said Brady.
“Life is busy and we have to prioritize where we spend our time, but sometimes we take for granted the one person who said I will be there through thick and thin,” said Brady. “If you have made a self-chosen commitment and obligation to try and live out your days with someone else - why wouldn’t you want to invest your time into it any time you had the opportunity.”

On 7th May 2015 The CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS), East Africa hosted the program’s Independent Science Panel (ISP) and Program Management Committee (PMC) at the Nyando Climate-Smart Villages in Kenya, one of the region’s learning sites. The team visited farmers to see the uptake of various climate- smart technologies that have made them food secure and increased their adaptive capacity to climate variability. The climate –smart farmers have not only increased their yields but have also become champion farmers (examples) for the community to emulate.

Students and faculty in UF Law’s Environmental and Land Use Law Program’s Spring Break Field Course explored the diverse marine and coastal ecoregion shared by South Florida and the Bahamian archipelago.
The purpose of the week-long course, led by Tom Ankersen, Florida Sea Grant's Legal Specialist, was to provide students a firm grounding in the law, policy and practice of coastal and marine sustainable development through field-based immersion, practitioner lectures, and reflective discussions.
The group traveled from the intensely developed waterfront of Biscayne Bay to the bustling government center of Nassau in the Bahamas, and then on to the quiet, rural family island of Andros, bounded by the great Bahama Bank and the Tongue of the Ocean. While there is a world of difference between the two neighbors separated by the Gulf Stream, they share a remarkably similar ecosystem facing many of the same threats, and common language of the common law.
This year’s Spring Break Field course furthers the UF Law Conservation Clinic’s South Florida Bahamas ecoregional initiative supported by Florida Sea Grant, and in partnership with the Bahamas National Trust.
