Celebrities and Institute of Heartmath Partner up to Support the Troops Sports Items Being Auctioned to Support Heartmath’S Military Service Appreciation Fund Media contact: Gabriella “Gaby” Boehmer (831) 338-8710 or [email protected] Celebrities and Institute of HeartMath Partner up to Support the Troops Sports items being auctioned to support HeartMath’s Military Service Appreciation Fund TV, film and music stars gathered recently in West Hollywood, Calif., to help the Institute of HeartMath and charitybuzz.com kick off an online sports auction to benefit the institute’s Military Service Appreciation Fund. Celebrities from the hit TV series Glee, Nip/Tuck, Dancing With the Stars, Jersey Shore, Modern Family and Castle were among those who participated in the event, where they autographed a top-of-the-line surfboard and snowboard, which are up for auction through Feb. 10 at http://bit.ly/MSAF-Celeb-Auctions. Mark Salling, Glee’s Noah “Puck” Puckerman, and Jenni “JWoww” Farley from MTV’s reality hit, Jersey Shore, were among the 17 stars who were part of the charitable event to benefit HeartMath’s Military Service Appreciation Fund (MSAF). This fund supports HeartMath’s science-based programs, services, tools and technology. It already has helped thousands of returned troops, veterans and their families with the mental and emotional needs arising from their service to the nation. The MSAF has been especially important for those who have served in combat zones and helping them return to their lives back home. Familiar TV faces attending IHM’s charity event also included former Dancing With the Stars co-host Samantha Harris and Jon Huertas who plays the lead role in Castle. Harris said at the event: “The troops do so much for us. It’s great to give back to them." Huertas is a veteran himself and a frequent supporter of charitable events for the troops. He served eight years in the Air Force, including in operations Just Cause in Panama and Desert Storm in the Persian Gulf War. Other celebrities who attended the event and autographed the auction items were Gilles Marini, who played “Dante” in Sex and the City: The Movie; Annalynne McCord, the evil and sultry “Eden Lord” in Nip/Tuck; Rico Rodriguez, the mature- beyond-his-years “Manny” on Modern Family; and Judith Shekoni, who stars as Zefrina in the upcoming Breaking Dawn and Eclipse movies in the Twilight Saga. The items up for bid are a twin-fin Surf Through Life surfboard from the Bird Rock Surf Shop in La Jolla, Calif., and a White Collection snowboard from Burton Snowboards in Burlington, Vt. Detailed descriptions of these items and a complete list of the celebrities who autographed them are at http://www.charitybuzz.com. Some of the celebrities at the event had an opportunity to try out HeartMath’s hand-held emWave® technology, which service members are using for a variety of conditions, including stress and posttraumatic stress disorder. Salling in particular expressed interest in having HeartMath’s emWave® PSR (emWave.com) on the set of Glee, whose cast members perhaps could benefit from the handheld stress-reduction device because of the show’s reported intense shooting schedule recently. More information about this special fund and the Institute of HeartMath can be found at Military Service Appreciation Fund www.heartmath.org. ### About the Institute of HeartMath: The Institute of HeartMath, www.heartmath.org, is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit research and education organization dedicated to teaching the principles of heart-based living around the world and promoting global coherence by inspiring people to connect with the intelligence and guidance of their hearts.

  • Gilles Marini Says He’
    Gilles Marini Says He’s “Blessed to Have the Chance to Be a Father – It’s Magical” By Kristin Mattern French-born actor Gilles Marini has made a lasting impression on American fans. He’s memorable for his beloved turn as Dante in Sex and the City: The Movie, his recurring roles on shows like Brothers & Sisters, Ugly Betty, and Nip Tuck, and his stellar appearances on the 8th and 15th seasons ofDancing with the Stars. As evidenced by his diverse resume, his brave and beautiful man seems daunted by nothing. Who can forget his full frontal nude scene as Dante? The former model is currently gracing the small screen as Angelo Sorrento on Switched at Birth, where he tackles the challenging role of an estranged father who has reentered his daughter’s life — a role that’s close to this family man’s heart. Related Link: ‘Brothers and Sisters’ Star Celebrates One Year Wedding Anniversary On ABC Family’s hit show, Marini plays the biological dad of Bay Kennish, who comes back into her life after abandoning his wife Regina when he thought she had cheated on him. A father himself, the star says that being a parent doesn’t affect how he plays the character: “I am the polar opposite of Angelo when it comes to being a father. I think he just landed on this planet and became one sixteen years too late. It’s understandable to see why he is the way he is, based on his past and he’s childhood, but that also makes him human and interesting.” Marini and wife Carole, who married in 1988, have a son Georges and a daughter Julianna.

  • V. 81, Issue 1, September 13, 2013
    Volume 81, Issue 1 Smithfield, RI September 13th, 2013 Inside New VP of Student Life at Bryant A morning with the new Vice President of Student Affairs, Dr. John Saddlemire this “I think Bryant’s got it figured out” - Vice President Saddlemire By Kathryn Valentini Staff Writer edition It’s a beautiful morning: the end of summer slowly fading, and the crisp cool autumn settling in. School is back in full swing, and already students, faculty and staff are bustling about the campus fulfilling their daily tasks. It is much the same in the Student Affairs Office, where Dr. John Saddlemire D. Ed., is quickly adjusting to his new position as Vice President of Student Affairs here at Bryant (having just begun his new position on August 26th). Dr. Saddlemire comes out of his office to offer me a jovial shake of the hand and a bright smile, (two things often offered up willingly around Bryant). Business: If you have already taken the time to look over Vice President Saddlemire’s extensive and Zurich CEO resigns notable resume when President Machtley sent it out to the Bryant community, then you would know that our new Vice President of Student Affairs has quite an impressive background, boasting over 25 years of teaching expertise (to give you an idea!). Having just recently left the University of Connecticut, which boasts a significantly larger population of students, faculty, and staff; he began our conversation by telling me how he was adjusting to a much smaller community. He responded by telling me that three years ago, he had the opportunity to visit Bryant’s campus, at which point he thought “it’s a great place” that Page 6 provides a “sense of valuing the individual while giving them a world-class experience.” He went on to say further that, “you go into this work to be able to work with students…I know at this point in my career, this is what I want to do: I want to be part of a community, my family wants to be part of a community.” Sports: And in the coming weeks, that’s exactly what will happen.
