WORK ON THAT EQ SNAP! Stars Over Jacobson Barn The iconic red clapboarded barn on Horsebarn Hill, a favorite spot for graduation photos, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places as Farwell Barn, named for its original owners. Even the official register, though, nods to the familiar “other name” Jacobson Barn, for the subsequent owners who sold it to UConn. The listing describes it as “one of a dwindling number of historic resources that recall Mansfield’s long history as a primarily agricultural community.” UConn videographer Angelina Reyes, who captured this shot, says, “I waited for a clear night. No clouds. Just stars. I took one photograph with a 30-second exposure every two seconds over a two-hour period. I then went into Photoshop and stacked each image on top of the other to create star trails.” Watch a time-lapse video of the stars and see historical photos of the barn at s.uconn.edu/barn.

  • Long River Review 2018
    Long River Review lrr 2018 21st Edition A Collaborative Project Creative Writing Program Design Center Studio Counterproof Press University of Connecticut Founded in 1998, Long River Review is an annual literary journal of art and literature staffed by undergraduates at the University of Connecticut. With a regular staff turnover, we gain fresh perspectives each year. We think it’s better this way. Here at Long River Review, we want to publish all kinds of voices: voices from the mouth of the river and beyond, voices drowned out by other voices, voices that might not have otherwise been heard. At Long River, we want to create a space where new and established artists can mingle and share a glass of water or wine (or whiskey). We believe that the unpublished artist deserves as much time and consideration as the artist with a foothold. For here at Long River, we believe that we are standing, all souls bent over, harvesting the words and images on the current, all knee to neck deep in the same, long river.

    Eating Disorders Review July/August 2020 Volume 31, Issue 4 Scott Crow, MD, Editor-in-Chief *********** Some Highlights from the 2020 iaedp Virtual Meeting An international meeting as close as your computer keyboard. After the 2020 iaedp conference planned for Orlando, FL, was cancelled due to the COVID-19 virus, the iaedp Foundation quickly went into action and turned the meeting into a virtual conference. Using virtual reality, members and other registrants were are able to take study sessions, visit the virtual exhibition hall, participate in Spanish sessions, complete classes for CME credits, and also to hear outstanding presentations by keynote speakers. Here are three presentations by keynote speakers at the 2020 iaedp virtual meeting. Topics ranged from the power of laughter and hope, and uses of new technology to improving care for eating disorders patients. Here are a few highlights: Humor Really Is the Best Medicine Author, columnist, and educator Gina Barreca, PhD, told her audience that humor can be a powerful therapeutic tool. Detailing her own childhood in a large Italian family that had two sets of rules, one for men and another for women, Dr. Barreca described how the use of humor helped her establish her independence and enabled her to break out of restrictive patterns for women. According to Dr. Barreca, the traditions she grew up with dictated that women weren’t supposed to take up much space—this went not only for female bodies but other areas as well. Beginning in childhood, females were taught to not be too loud, not to want too much, and their assigned role was primarily to take care of everyone else.

    May / June 2004 Vol. 5 / Issue 3 Can Love Survive Reality TV? In 2000, PBS broadcast a reality ’time-travel’ series entitled 1900 House. They took one modern family, put them into a Victorian house redesigned to exact 1900 standards, and filmed them as they coped with 18th century living conditions -- chamber pots, coal stove cooking, and gaslights to name a few. The popularity of the series led to several other forays into history by modern families, first in Frontier House and then in Manor House. Now, romance novelist, Katie Macalister enters the world of reality TV, historical style, with her latest book, The Corset Diaries.
