Brown University coach charged with assaulting her husband PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) — The women’s basketball coach at Brown University has been charged with assaulting her husband. The Providence Journal reports Sarah Behn was charged with assault and battery on a fam- ily or household member after an incident at her home Sunday in Massachusetts. A police report filed in Foxboro, Massachusetts says Timothy McGahan, Behn’s husband, told officers she pushed him and pinned him against a wall. Behn’s attorney, Jerome Sweeney, says Behn denies that and it’s a private matter. The report says Behn told officers McGahan yelled at her mother and she intervened to push him away. It says she said they’re getting divorced. Behn became the head coach in 2014.

Though there isn’t much of the movie being explained quite yet, Santiago did supply a general overview.

It will talk about the struggles he’s been through, what he is going through now, and how he will over- come. “It’s compact with a lot of different messages. If you try to ask me the genre, I honestly wouldn’t know what to tell you. I might say sci-fi, because there’s an element of a world that doesn’t exist. It is also a thriller, there’s drama, and there’s good messages that I’m really trying to put out in the world for people. Especially with how crazy the world is right now I feel like we could all use these messages, something to get us to think a little bit harder before we act,” Santiago said. “I’m hoping people can watch this movie and take a little something from it, learn from it, and hopefully be able to relate. I’m hoping we can all take a look at what we do and how we treat people.” According to Santiago, many big and eventful scenes were shot in Westfield. Though the circumstances of most of these scenes are being kept secret, one scene in particular Santiago disclosed was a funeral scene. Santiago said that the original plan was to go to Holyoke for this scene, but thanks to con-

Westfield State holds third annual farm-to-table fundraising dinner The Westfield State University Department of Communication will hold a farm-to-table dinner on Sunday, August 26, from 5 to 8 p.m. on the grounds of the Horace Mann Center located at 333 Western Avenue in Westfield. Titled “Dinner at Henry’s Garden,” the event honors the late Dr. Henry Wefing, professor emeritus of communication, who served the University for 30 years. Proceeds will benefit the Henry Wefing Journalism Scholarship, which has been awarded annually since 2016. The menu will feature locally-sourced ingredients. Menu options include eggplant rollatini, BLT deviled eggs, and braised beef tostadas for appetizers; grilled chicken with peaches or leg of lamb with chimichurri sauce for dinner; and cornmeal short- cakes with mixed berries and stone fruit for dessert. Diners will be seated for dinner next to the garden Dr. Wefing planted in 2007. He used to donate the produce to the Westfield Food Pantry. Today, the garden is maintained by volunteers, including faculty, staff and students. At the event, sponsored by the Westfield News Group, food will be prepared by Westfield State Dining Services Executive Chef Mary Reilly, a gold medalist in a recent American Culinary Federation-sanctioned culinary competition. She is a frequent guest on WWLP’s Mass Appeal, the publisher of Edible Pioneer Valley and the co-author of Home Sausage Making (Storey Press, 2017). A portion of the dinner will be prepared outside on site and Reilly will be available to meet guests, answer ques- tions, and discuss the food and the importance of using locally-sourced ingredients. The event aligns with the University’s commitment to provide local, sustainable food to its campus community. In 2016, Westfield State launched a self-operating dining services system based on a farm-to-fork model. Today, Westfield State Dining Services partner with more than 30 local farmers and food producers. Producer/director CJ Santiago works on the set of the movie Dinner tickets are $45 and must be purchase in advance, as seating is limited and last year’s dinner sold out quickly. To pur- Interim.
