When you can’t hear as well as you used to, it’s not just frustrating — it’s alienating, too. At the dinner table, surrounded by friends (and noise), you somehow feel out of it, separate. Often hearing loss is so gradual you don’t realize it’s happening. This can contribute to “feelings of loneliness and social isolation,” says Maria Pomponio, a clinical audiologist at Weill Cornell Medicine, New York-Presbyterian Hospital. While it’s true that aging can cause hearing loss — it affects about one-third of Americans between ages 65 and 74 and nearly half of those older than 75, according to the National Institutes of Health — it’s important to protect what you’ve got and to preserve it for as long as you can. And fortunately, some hearing loss is preventable. “There is definitely reason for hope,” Pomponio says. Don’t put off a trip to the doctor’s office. If you don’t seek treatment for your hearing loss — and many older adults underestimate how bad their hearing truly is, research shows — you’re at a greater risk for falls, hospital visits, anxiety and depression, as well as for higher levels of inactivity and higher health care costs. Plus, protecting your hearing — and getting treatment — is one of the biggest changes you can make to lower your risk for developing dementia, the Lancet Commission’s 2020 report found. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/61de016f0b3a177e868f162c/1752026695326/ Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - AARP | What Causes Hiccups — and How to Stop Them AARP. | Web. | January 11, 2022. From friends to enemies, family to strangers, and so many people in between — nearly everyone you know has had a bout of the hiccups. While they’re happening, they’re all you can think about. Without warning, a noise escapes. You can tell another one is coming, but it’s impossible to predict just when. So you wait for the inevitable: a second one, then a third. All you can do is hope the spasms stop soon. While annoying, there is some good news: “Just about always, hiccups are not serious. They come and quickly resolve,” says Aminah Jatoi, M.D., a medical oncologist at Mayo Clinic who has published research on hiccups, including in BMJ Supportive & Palliative Care. “But every so often, hiccups seem to require a more detailed medical evaluation,” she says. Oddly enough, experts still don’t really know why hiccups happen, “even though almost everyone, if not everyone, experiences hiccups during their lifetime,” says Mark Prince, M.D., chair of the otolaryngology department at the University of Michigan. What’s more straightforward, however, is how they work: Chest spasms contract the diaphragm, pushing air up to the throat, closing the glottis (the middle part of the larynx where the vocal cords are located), releasing a “hic” sound. Then the diaphragm contracts again, in some sort of ominous rhythm. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/61b30a45ac32fc6b68435871/1752026695329/ Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - AARP | 6 Myths About Shingles — Common but Misunderstood AARP. | Web. | December 9, 2021. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/618aa2a94dbdf67f7c0eb6d5/1752026695331/ Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - AARP | The 10 Worst Habits for Your Heart https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/613d29b01b964d6731e4e4f1/1752026695333/ Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - AARP | Cancer and Alcohol: 3 Things You Need to Know AARP. | Web. | September 10, 2021. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/610f20469c1b137e022116a7/1752026695335/ Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - AARP | Why You Shouldn't Open Your Eyes Underwater AARP. | Web. | August 6, 2021. It's get-out-in-the-sun season: Grab a beach towel, slather on the sunscreen, and order a big drink with a tiny umbrella. But before you get in the water — whether it's a pool, lake or ocean — grab some goggles. Don't have a pair? Then you should probably keep those peepers closed when swimming below the surface. Exposing your eyes underwater to whatever gunk may be lurking there raises your risk for a range of health issues. Some things are relatively benign: For example, if you keep your eyes open in the pool for too long, they can become red and irritated. But there are more severe effects, too, such as a higher risk for waterborne infections — especially if you wear your contact lenses underwater (don't!) or have been treated for cataracts. "If you swim in water that is not chlorine-treated, like a river or a lake, you're at a greater risk for developing an eye infection,” says Robert C. Layman, an Ohio-based doctor of optometry and president of the American Optometric Association. Bacteria can infect an irritated eye, leading to “a serious sight-threatening infection, often called a corneal ulcer,” he adds, which is an open sore on the cornea that can cause severe pain and lead to blindness if not treated. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/60f8def948fe4e71fb0bef4a/1752026695337/ Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - AARP | The 3 Supplements You Might Actually Need After 50 AARP. | Web. | July 21, 2021. Taking a dietary supplement or two (or five) every day isn't exactly uncommon. About 70 percent of adults age 60 and older reported taking at least one supplement in the last month — be it a multivitamin or a chocolate-flavored calcium chew. And about 30 percent took at least four, research shows. But what's really worth taking? And what should be left on the grocery store shelf? "In most cases, it is person-specific,” says Lingtak-Neander Chan, associate chair of the department of pharmacy and a faculty member in the nutritional sciences program at the University of Washington in Seattle. The decision, he says, should be based on “underlying health conditions, diet, access to food and other individual factors.” The majority of older adults can get the nutrients they need from foods in a varied, healthy diet. That said, if you're worried you're missing the nutritional mark — your doctor can test you for a deficiency — calcium, vitamin D and vitamin B12 are three supplements worth considering, Chan says. That's right, only three. But they're mighty important. As we age, our bodies typically don't absorb vitamins and minerals as well as they used to. The poster child for this is calcium, and a deficiency can lead to bone fractures and, eventually, falls. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/60d1a109ff27dd384d7ebe9c/1752026695340/ Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - Next Avenue | Can Vaccine Incentives Overcome Fear and Mistrust?

In his keynote presentation at the 2018 Collaborative Journalism Summit, Grégoire Lemarchand, the deputy editor in chief and head of social networks at Agence France-Presse, spoke about how American journalists might use lessons learned from CrossCheck, a collaborative verification project, in preparation for this year’s midterm elections. CrossCheck, a collaboration between 37 partners across France and the United Kingdom, focused on covering “false, misleading, and confusing claims that circulated online” in the 10 weeks before the 2017 French presidential election. “Participants were under a common sense of public service,” Lemarchand said. In the weeks leading up to the election, he said, the French public’s trust in the media was very low — dangerously low. “There was really a global feeling that the threat of this disinformation is so big and serious that we have to work together. If we allow this information to spiral out of control, we will be left crying, as the public will no longer know what is true. If people cannot trust, then democracy can’t work.” https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/5b2b464a2b6a28718c4472ea/1752026695384/Anthony+Advingula.jpeg Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - Collaborative Journalism Summit | Mainstream Media Need to Actively Look for Ways to Partner with Ethnic Media Center for Cooperative Media. | Web. | May 20, 2018.

Some birthdays are exciting milestones: At 16, most of us get to drive a car, and at 21, we can drink in a bar. But age 65 is a little different. Turning 65 isn’t about something you can do once you’re old enough. It’s about something you should do, even if you don’t want to begin receiving your retirement benefits just yet. It’s called signing up for Medicare. “You work all your life and you pay into your Medicare, and then, when you turn 65, there’s so much out there that you’re like, Where do I start?”, says Mildred Scrogham, a mother of three grown children based in Bentonville, Ark. In April, she and her husband, Rick began to get a bit nervous. “We were so confused about Medicare, because we didn’t know exactly where to start and what to do,” she remembers. Her 65th birthday was coming up in June, and they were planning for Rick—who’s a year older—to take his retirement on July 1st. They knew they needed to figure out their Medicare options soon. “Timing is very important,” says Keith Armbrecht, a Florida-based insurance agent you helps seniors navigate Medicare. “Right when you’re either turning 65 or when you’re retiring from work—you may be well past 65—you have a window where you don’t have to answer any medical questions, and that gives the ability to choose anything that you want. The insurance companies can’t say. no.” While Medicare doesn’t deny coverage for pre-existing conditions, during this period, seniors can pick any plan they like without having to worry about whether their medical conditions might disqualify them from supplemental coverage. That’s why it’s crucial to enroll at age 65 or right when you retire, when you’re the youngest (and likely the healthiest) you’re going to be, and you have the most options. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/59224c25ff7c5032ee154a9c/1752026695394/PRISMA+Lab+Torino+Festival+-+Full+Body+with+Blue+Tray.jpg Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - Scientific American | Robo Pizzaiolo: Robot Chef Learns to Twirl Pizza Like a Pro https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/58a3e0d91e5b6c9d07f0b4a0/1752026695396/CUWiP+PPPL+3+Students+2017+Conference.jpg Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - The Tab | Rocket Scientists Calculate the ‘Go Point’ at Princeton’s Undergraduate Women in Physics Conference The Tab. | Web. | Feb. 14, 2017. Being a woman in science isn’t easy. In most situations, you have to deal with everything that comes with being the only woman in the room. In Hidden Figures, a new film based on the true story of NASA’s female “computers”, Taraji P. Henson depicts this perfectly as legendary mathematician Katherine G. Johnson, who was awarded the Medal of Freedom in 2016 for her contributions to the space program. Katherine G. Johnson’s calculations got us to the moon — but for many women studying and working in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics), race and gender can be a strong tether. Everyone brings their own assumptions to work. What’s difficult on the daily can be a range of unequal treatment, access, and bias, from micro-aggressions to sexual harassment. This week, on February 11, the UN Headquarters in NYC hosted the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, with actions to reduce gender bias and increase opportunities, funding, and social support for women who study, research, and work in STEM. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/58d4af1d1b631bcd6560a627/1752026695398/Amazon+Fulfillment+Center+Delaware+%7C+Kimberly+Paynter+WHYY.jpg Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - NPR / WHYY | Amazon Planning 2,500 Hires in N.J.

Nancy Rappaport ’82 has devoted her entire career to medicine. A child psychiatrist and associate professor at Harvard Medical School, she’s worked in the Cambridge, Mass., public school system for over two decades. Rappaport says her specialty is “angry teenagers” — and something about her hearty laugh says she doesn’t usually have trouble keeping up. In August 2015, she was diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer. With three children of her own — one currently in med school — the longtime runner (13 Boston Marathons and counting) says she was stopped in her tracks. “That transition — going from a doctor to a patient — has really opened me up,” she says. “For me, it was early-stage breast cancer. For other people, it could be a mild heart attack, or a major depression. Those things are relatively common for doctors to manage, but still, it can feel like earth-shattering news.” https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/58103c09440243d87325c419/1752026695402/IzzyHeadshot.JPG Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - Tiger of the Week: Izzy Kasdin ’14, Connecting People With Princeton’s Past Princeton Alumni Weekly. | Web Story. | August 24, 2016. Izzy Kasdin ’14 is a proud local. She knows the rhythms of the town and University: how the campus fills and empties each year, marked by a calendar of beginnings, breaks, Reunions, and departures. She grew up in Princeton. At 14, Kasdin began volunteering as a docent with the Princeton Historical Society, a non-profit committed to sharing its own sense of the “local.” In January, the organization named Kasdin as its new executive director. “It was a complete shock,” Kasdin remembers. She says although she didn’t formally apply to the position, her return to Princeton “makes perfect sense.” It was the Historical Society, after all, that first introduced her to the field of museum curation and preservation. As a teen, her first task was to greet visitors at the door. Then, in 2008, the Historical Society organized an exhibition about political participation and activism. At the closing of the exhibit, Kasdin remembers taking the time to carefully pack up a women’s suffrage banner. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/57b1e282d1758e31faf08692/1752026695404/Ian+Martinez+Rain+City+Poetry+Slam+Mic.jpg Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - Tiger of the Week: Ian Martinez '01, Poetry Slam Champion Princeton Alumni Weekly. | Web Story. | July 27, 2016. Fifteen blocks. That’s how far Puerto Rican spoken word poet Ian Martinez ’01 walks every Wednesday, blasting his pump-up playlist through his headphones. For Martinez, it’s not just a walk through Seattle. It’s a step away from his “white-collar job” at Microsoft, and a step towards the microphone on the intense-yet-intimate stage at Jai Thai on Broadway, home of the Rain City Poetry Slam. Though he considers himself to be a “real newcomer and rookie,” Martinez is the current Grand Champion of the Rain City Poetry Slam. He earned that title by winning the Rain City slam’s finals in April, which attracted 250 people. “Spoken word is a unique art form because it combines storytelling, traditional verse, and wordplay,” Martinez says. “Your energy has to match the room’s, and then take it up a notch. If you deliver, and the room gives you back the love you put into the poem, that’s the greatest feeling an artist can have.” https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/57817e2aebbd1acae39fdfe6/1752026695406/Glenn+Shepard+-+Interview+-+2003.jpg Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - Princeton Alumni Weekly | Glenn Shepard ’87, Medical Anthropologist, Ethnobotanist, and Field Researcher Princeton Alumni Weekly. | Web. | July 6, 2016. Glenn H. Shepard Jr. ’87 has a lush and noisy backyard: Toucans squawk, parrots chatter, monkeys howl. He lives in the middle of the jungle. Settled in Belém, at the mouth of the Amazon, Shepard works as a full-time researcher and ethnology curator at the Goeldi Museum in Belém do Pará, Brazil. Some might say Shepard lives in paradise. Yet as an ethnobotanist — a researcher interested in how cultures use plants, especially as medicine — Shepard’s work focuses on illness, pain, and stress. Every culture, he says, has found ways to heal. Shepard is a medical anthropologist who has dedicated himself to the Matsigenka, an indigenous people who live in Manú National Park, an isolated natural wonder deep within the Peruvian rain forest. This June, Shepard’s work was featured in National Geographic: “This Park in Peru Is Nature ‘in Its Full Glory’—With Hunters,” by Emma Harris. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/57817780c534a5d68f1ff48c/1752026695409/Princeton+Latinx+Graduation+Ceremony+-+06.2016+-+Sameer+A.+Khan.jpg Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - On the Campus: Time to Celebrate | Special Ceremonies Recognize Paths Taken by Graduating Students Princeton Alumni Weekly. | Web Story. | Print Story. | July 6, 2016 The Princeton Hidden Minority Council presented green graduation cords to 33 seniors during a ceremony May 15 for first-generation and low-income students.

About 600 people attended the Pan-African Graduation May 29 in Richardson Auditorium. Tennille Haynes, director of the Fields Center, said the event recognized students’ “hardships and their struggles.

The final scene of Stephanie Leotsakos ’16’s chamber opera, OMG, opens with a World War II veteran clasping an amulet to his heart, weeping about the memory of his mother, Anna. His daughter, Anna Francesca, walks into the room, distracted by her cellphone. Her Snapchats and emojis are projected onto the screen behind the stage; for a moment, the only music is the sound of screen swipes and texting. Then Anna looks up — and she sees her father crying. “OMG,” she sings, and drops her phone. OMG, Leotsakos’ senior-thesis opera, premiered April 23 in Taplin Auditorium. The 51-minute production featured eight singers and 10 musicians. The story opens in A.D. 550 near the Church of San Vitale in Ravenna, Italy; over six scenes, it moves toward the present day. “OMG is by far the most complex thing I have ever created,” said Leotsakos, who learned the violin at 3, the piano at 4, and the viola at 9. She started composing two years ago. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/58d4a8f7e6f2e19c40bc93c1/1752026695413/NSTX-U+overhead+-+Copy+-+Copy.jpg Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - Philadelphia Business Journal | Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory’s $94M Upgrade to World’s Most Powerful Fusion Experiment Philadelphia Business Journal. Web. May 23, 2016. The Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) just celebrated a milestone in its research on fusion energy. After nearly four years of round-the-clock work by 250 people, the PPPL completed a $94 million upgrade to its flagship fusion facility, the National Spherical Torus Experiment (NSTX-U). Department of Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz donned a white hard hat to tour the NSTX-U's test cell facility and the 85-ton machine at the center. The NSTX-U is a fusion energy experiment contained in a spherical tokamak reactor. This design is an apple-core shape that requires less energy than traditional tokamaks, which are bulkier (and often more expensive to operate). Like the sun, the NSTX-U is powered by fusion. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/574ce909b654f95fce4dd683/1752026695415/Lileana+Blain-Cruiz+Head+Shot+%283MB%29.jpg Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - Princeton Alumni Weekly | Theater Director Lileana Blain-Cruz ’06 Brings Branden Jacobs-Jenkins ’06’s ‘War’ to Lincoln Center Princeton Alumni Weekly. | Web. | May 11, 2016. War, a new play directed by Lileana Blain-Cruz ’06 and written by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins ’06, premiered May 21 in New York at Lincoln Center’s Claire Tow Theater. It’s a story about family battles: Siblings Tate (Chris Myers) and Joanne’s (Rachel Nicks) relationship turns combative when their mother (Charlayne Woodard) has a stroke, and an inheritance is in limbo. As director and playwright, Blain-Cruz and Jacobs-Jenkins are creative siblings, so to speak: They have supported one another for nearly a decade. “Branden and I met as classmates,” says Blain-Cruz, a Yale M.F.A. grad who directed War’s world premiere at the Yale Repertory Theater last year. “We’ve each seen almost everything the other has done. And this play — a huge play about family and history — felt like the right piece for us to work on together.” https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/574ce597c2ea517f706fc12c/1752026695417/Diana+Weymar+Headshot.jpg Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - Tiger of the Week: Textile Artist Diana Weymar '91 Brings Her Craft to Princeton Princeton Alumni Weekly. | Web Story. | April 20, 2016. This spring, Diana Weymar ’91, a textile artist and curator based in Victoria, British Columbia, returned to Princeton. A mother of four, she left the view from her studio desk — a Blue Heron nest, grazing deer, a salty waft settling in, blocks from the ocean — to be the Anne Reeves Artist-in-Residence at the Arts Council of Princeton. Weymar’s collaborative sewing project, “Interwoven Stories,” seeks to stich the Princeton community together. “This project asks participants to stitch a page — and some are spending months on it — to then contribute to the community,” Weymar says. This spring, she led sewing workshops and handed out nearly 230 blank “pages” at the Princeton Public Library. “So often we make something of importance or value to us and then keep or sell it,” she continues. “It’s a risk for some, and second nature to others. Each person has a different reaction to the blank fabric page.” https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/56fc2e8b27d4bd42c23aca90/1752026695419/ Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - Princeton Alumni Weekly | Lauret Savoy '81, Earth Scientist, Map Reader, 'Memory Tracer' Princeton Alumni Weekly. | Web. | March 30, 2016. “Read me, it called then. It still does,” writes Lauret Savoy ’81 in her new memoir, Trace: Memory, History, Race, and the American Landscape, a finalist for the 2016 PEN Open Book Award and nominee for a Pushcart Prize. This is how Savoy, a professor of environmental studies and geology at Mount Holyoke College, describes the beloved map she’s carried for years — a large, “creased, taped, and re-taped” roll she’s unfurled on every cross-country trip since Princeton, “since that day in college when Professor Judson handed out copies to his geomorphology class.” Savoy’s map, as she recalls in Trace’s fifth chapter, “What’s in a Name,” is a hand-drawn and inked copy by “master cartographer-artist” Erwin Raisz. It’s also something she “reads” — which suggests that Savoy sees her map as something more than the shaded, textured terrain of “physiographic landforms”; her map, like Trace, is a text. And its style — precise yet expansive, even hard-to-pin-down — models Savoy’s unique background. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/58a3e3fb46c3c409087eb3ff/1752026695421/Steinem+Conference+Photo+1-large.jpg Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - The Tab | #BarefacedBeauty Campaign Wants Women to Go Make Up Free The Tab. | Web. | Feb. 28, 2016. Barefaced and Beautiful — what a concept. On Monday, in conjunction with National Eating Disorders Awareness Week (#NEDAwareness), the Renfrew Center Foundation is asking women to go “make-up free” for a day — something that might seem like no big deal. But there’s a small catch. The Renfrew Center, which is based in Philadelphia and has treated more than 65,000 women with eating disorders in its 30-year history, is asking women to take one more step: to post a make-up free, “untouched” selfie, and to share it with the world, using the the hashtag #barefacedbeauty. According to this campaign, girls who decide to go with this “no-makeup look” are making a big statement. But is this a radical idea, really? And is this a new thing? If this barefaced and beautiful idea sounds familiar, it’s because — well, it kind of is. This is the fifth year of Renfrew’s annual Barefaced and Beautiful campaign. Even former Princeton Prof. Melissa Harris-Perry posted her own selfie sans make-up on MSNBC, in a piece titled “The Naked Truth About Body Image.” https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/56df22de746fb96784714241/1752026695423/ Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - Tigers of the Week: From Triangle Club to Love Triangle, Playwrights Scott Elmegreen ’07 and Drew Fornarola ’06 Debut Off-Broadway Play Princeton Alumni Weekly. | Web Story. | February 24, 2016. “Ben likes beer, sports, and Emily. And Chris.” That’s the tagline for Straight, a new play written by Scott Elmegreen ’07 and Drew Fornarola ’06. The pair met at Theatre Intime and the Princeton Triangle Club in the fall of 2003. “Triangle is a pre-professional kind of experience,” said Fornarola before a Thursday night performance of Straight in New York. “It’s as close to what it’s like to do a show here as I imagine most people could have in college. “You’ve got a creative team.

Nushelle de Silva ’11 grew up in Sri Lanka. In 1983, before she was born, the country erupted in what would be a 25-year civil war. “My parents, who were fairly young at the time, saw the horrific violence that erupted on the streets,” she says. Then, she pauses. “I don’t want to provide details that run the risk of flattening what was a very complex conflict.” Sri Lanka is a country that de Silva’s parents left and returned to — despite the civil war. After a stint in Sydney, Australia, where Nushelle was born, the family moved to Colombo, the southwestern capital, when she was 7. In 2004, during a ceasefire, de Silva’s K-12 all-girls’ school visited a sister school in Jaffna, the country’s northernmost city. “It had a huge impact on me as a young girl,” she remembers. “My childhood was certainly filled with bomb drills and curfews and explosions that took the lives of many — my school was damaged by a bomb a few years before I enrolled — but none of us saw the kind of violence these girls saw on a daily basis. It was a sobering visit for a 16-year-old to make.” https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/56846b730ab37742d397efd9/1752026695427/ Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - Princeton Echo | Heart in Princeton, Head in the Clouds Princeton Echo. | Web. | Print. (Cover Story.) | Dec. 30, 2015. Michael Lemonick has marked many seasons in Princeton. He was born and raised here. He’s watched the winter turn to spring year after year. And when he talks about the weather, it’s not small talk. For three decades, Lemonick has been one of the nation’s eminent science writers, notably for Time Magazine, for which he wrote more than 50 cover stories. In November, he became the opinion editor at Scientific American. And in between, he spent seven years as the senior science writer at Climate Central, the Palmer Square-based nonprofit, nonpartisan research and media organization that employs climate scientists, researchers, fellows, and journalists. Lemonick knows it’s been a warmer winter. But, he says, that doesn’t mean we should assume this year’s milder temperatures are due to climate change — especially since last year’s winter was quite cold. “The fact that it’s warmer this year than last year? No. That has nothing to do with climate change,” he says. “The fact that, on average, it’s warmer in every state in the winter than it was in 1900, and that it’s been steadily rising? Yes, that has everything to do with climate change.” https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/5671b91c2399a31f114db69f/1752026695430/Zabel+%2788+Headshot.jpg Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - Princeton Alumni Weekly | David Zabel ’88, TV Writer, Producer, and Co-Creator of ‘Mercy Street’ Princeton Alumni Weekly. | Web. | Dec. 16, 2015. On Dec. 7, in front of a full-house audience of star-struck undergraduates and artsy locals, David Zabel ’88 spoke from a stage that supported the early days of his career — literally. It was at 185 Nassau, the longtime home of the arts at Princeton, that he spent hours and hours at late-night rehearsals and intensive writing workshops. Once he discovered the theater at Princeton, Zabel said, his other interests (history, for example) quietly faded away. It snapped his future into focus. “I was interested in a bunch of different things,” he said. “It was just theater that embraced me — earliest and most fully.” Zabel is now an award-winning television writer, producer, and director. He wrote more than 45 episodes of ER, the medical series on NBC. He was the showrunner of ER for the program’s final five years, and he was also the showrunner and executive producer of Detroit 1-8-7 and Betrayal (both on ABC). https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/564f1227e4b0c729bb002394/1752026695432/PAW+%7C+Velasco_Daniel-285x300.png Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - Tiger of the Week: Daniel Velasco ’13, Teach for America Alum and Charter School Mentor Teacher Princeton Alumni Weekly. | Web Story. | November 18, 2015. Outside Daniel Velasco ’13’s classroom window at the 21st Century Charter School in Gary, Ind., stands an abandoned building with boarded up windows. But the view doesn’t bother Velasco — his focus is on his students, not his surroundings. “I absolutely love all of my students, even those that make me want to pull my hair out,” Velasco said with a chuckle. “The greatest lesson I have learned from them is patience.” This is Velasco’s third year at the charter school. During his first two, he taught full time as a Teach for America fellow. Velasco taught AP United States history, AP world history, economics, government, and world history. He has also tried to build relationships with his students, and to connect with them as a mentor. “When I teach my kids, stay after school with them, and host tutoring sessions during breaks, I think about the teachers that did that for me,” he said. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/564f1b2be4b07f88bd4df002/1752026695434/ Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - Princeton Echo | Award-Winning Poet Tracy K.

In September, John Oakes ’83, a veteran book publisher based in New York, returned to the Princeton campus for “Careers Beyond Wall Street,” a panel sponsored by Princeton Progressives. He described a shrinking industry that is, well, still stuck in the Stone Age. “I think going into book publishing — certainly the traditional side of it — is tantamount to apprenticing yourself to a potter. Or a stone carver,” he said. Book publishing is “quaint, time-consuming, frustrating, and occasionally thrilling,” he said — and it’s in the midst of a massive transformation. As the co-publisher at OR Books, an independent press that sells e-books and paperback books direct to readers, and prints on demand, Oakes is shaping that transformation, one book at a time. In the coming year, Oakes also plans to re-launch The Evergreen Review, a groundbreaking literary magazine, with Editor-in-Chief Dale Peck. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/55fc82efe4b01342ae93fc85/1752026695438/Meru+-+3.jpg Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - Princeton Alumni Weekly | Documentary Filmmaker Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi ’00 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/56350b4ee4b08a0f246bb1a3/1752026695440/John+Oakes+%27+83+PAW+254x300.jpg Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - Tiger of the Week: Allegra Wiprud ’14, Conservation Leader Princeton Alumni Weekly. | Web Story. | September 30, 2015. Allegra “Lovejoy” Wiprud ’14 gets emotional when she recalls her first land stewardship trip at the D&R Greenway Land Trust, an 18,000-acre land preservation and conservation nonprofit. It was an invasive species removal job in Hopewell, N.J. That day, the dangerous plant that her team tracked down, cut back, and destroyed — the climbing growth that covered, choked, and threatened to kill a tree — was English ivy (Hedera helix). Perched on a picnic table outside the Johnson Education Center, a historic barn overlooking Greenway Meadows, Wiprud mimes how she removed the ivy, grabbing the vine with her hands as if it were a snake coiled around her neck. By clearing the ivy away, she says, “We can give the tree its life back.” Ivy might look quintessentially Princeton, but as Wiprud is learning, the non-native plant climbs and grows so fast that it smothers other plants and starves trees of sunlight. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/55dfaba9e4b02e73a071dd9f/1752026695442/IMG_0245.jpg Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - Tiger of the Week: Patrick Ryan ’68, Gallery Director Princeton Alumni Weekly. | Web Story. | August 26, 2015. Patrick Ryan ’68 doesn’t do “art speak.” But he does know how to command the stage at an auction, rattling off antiques and art at break-neck speed to the highest bidder. Last Saturday, at the historic Benjamin Temple house and dairy farm in Ewing, N.J., where he was born and raised, Ryan auctioned off more than 80 items in 2 1/2 hours under a blazing hot sun — all for charity, to support the Ewing Township Historic Preservation Society. Ryan has led a life of talking fast and moving faster. A long-time art collector and gallery owner, Ryan is just as comfortable in overalls and work boots as in seersucker shorts and a polo shirt. He reckons he somehow “inherited the Irish gypsy gene,” a drive that rattled against the quiet rituals of his father’s 166-acre dairy farm: rising at 4:30 a.m. to milk 50 cows, twice per day. “The cows don’t care if it’s Christmas,” he remembers.   https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/55dd05c9e4b087612e6c2ccc/1752026695445/Gavin+at+Bench+3.jpg Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - Tiger of the Week: Keyboardist Gavin Black ’79 Princeton Alumni Weekly. | Web Story. | August 12, 2015. Gavin Black ’79 has devoted his entire adult life to studying, performing, teaching, and recording 17th- and 18th-century keyboard music. But he knows that studying Baroque music on antique instruments isn’t an easy sell. “The harpsichord is not remotely as popular as the piano,” he laughs from a bench at the Princeton Early Keyboard Center, the non-profit music studio he founded in 2001. It offers harpsichord, clavichord, and organ lessons for students, composers, and group classes. Black discovered the organ and harpsichord at age 14, after a stint taking piano lessons left him curious about Baroque music. As a freshman at Princeton, he would practice the organ alone in the vast and empty University Chapel, lit only by moonlight, courtesy of a special access key. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/55dd05eee4b06c381ee71b66/1752026695447/IMG_3899_ColorEfex.jpg Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - Princeton Echo | Classics You Can't Refuse: Garden Theatre Hooks Princeton in Throwback Hollywood Film Series Princeton Echo. | Web Story. | Print Story. | August 1, 2015.

But she’s not convinced that the classics have any bite left — even Jaws. “Jaws isn’t going to be scarier on the big screen — it’s like 40 years old!” Connor, 18, rolled her eyes with a playful smirk in the lobby of the Garden Theatre on June 25. As a Millennial, Connor was raised on easy, 24/7 access to small screen entertainment. At the Garden Theatre, she's learning to love old movies — but with a filter of ironic nostalgia, because "classic" is cool, and "vintage" is hip. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/55dd06b9e4b08102f9de5245/1752026695449/Michael+Dean+Morgan+Family+Photo.jpg Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - Planet Princeton | Princeton Resident Michael Dean Morgan Makes His Debut on Broadway in ‘Amazing Grace’ Planet Princeton. | Web Story. | July 23, 2015. “It’s a popular venue. You just gotta sing clearly for the grandmas in the back.” In the balcony of the Nederlander Theater on 208 W. 41st St. in New York City, after a Saturday preview matinée, Michael Dean Morgan talks easily over the clatter of mic checks, an active orchestra pit, and a tour below. Even the noise of a yodeling voice warming up backstage doesn’t faze him. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/1554492382317-7ZTKZ5RZ10UOH6VE95ON/OTC-TeachFortunatoNew.jpg Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - Princeton Alumni Weekly | Serving by Teaching Princeton Alumni Weekly. | Web Story. | April 4, 2019. Across the state, from Trenton to North Jersey, a tenacious group of Princetonians is reporting for duty in a unique classroom. They’re students — and soon-to-be teachers. After years of coursework, fieldwork, and student teaching, this pack of undergraduates, graduate students, and alumni will have the opportunity to earn a teaching license (a Certificate of Eligibility with Advanced Standing), to teach full time in middle and high schools in New Jersey, as well as in many schools nationwide. “I loved my teachers, but I found that I was rarely taught by a teacher who looked like me, a black girl,” said Pam McGowen ’20, a student in the Program in Teacher Preparation (Teacher Prep) who plans to teach high school English someday. “This has pushed me to work to become a role model for students of color, because I believe that representation is important.” Now more than 1,000 graduates strong, Teacher Prep was created with the support of then-Provost William Bowen *58, later Princeton’s 17th president. The program received state approval in 1969 and earned national accreditation in 2007. Ten to 15 students are certified every year, with 45 to 55 students in the program at any one time. In the past five years, 30 percent of Teacher Prep graduates were alumni. A third of graduates earned a teaching certificate in English, a quarter in social studies, and about a tenth each in math, science, and world languages. “We see education as a way to help others improve their lives and increase their opportunities,” said Teacher Prep director Todd Kent. “There’s more emphasis on that in terms of access and equity these days,” he said, but the heart of the program is unchanged: to support students and alumni who begin this journey. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/1543906607817-WR9KX7G1F765FOSXZYWJ/Free+Solo+National+Geographic.jpg Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - Princeton Alumni Weekly | New Films by Vasarhelyi ’00, Hartofilis ’03 Earn Critical Acclaim Princeton Alumni Weekly. | Web Story. | November 29, 2018. Vasarhelyi has made six full-length documentaries. [….] PAW featured her Sundance Award-winning film Meru (2015), which was shortlisted for an Oscar. This immersive documentary follows pro climber Alex Honnold from his cramped “dirtbag” van to the big open sky around and below El Capitan in Yosemite National Park. Honnold’s journey is anything but straight up: It’s a story of discipline and drive, but it’s also a story of false starts and falls. “Free solo” is how he climbs — no rope, no partner below. Along the way, he meets someone who threatens the whole enterprise, a girl who shows him how to be vulnerable, express emotion, and love. All six of Vasarhelyi’s films have felt “incredibly personally significant” to her, and each has had a unique political stake. Where her earlier films captured political violence and its aftermath, Free Solo tracks an inner turbulence: Honnold’s struggle for identity, intimacy, vulnerability. The film asks big questions about how to live with both risk and intention in an uncertain time. “He inspires us to have courage. He inspires us to be better people,” Vasarhelyi says, speaking for herself and Chin. She was moved by Honnold’s patient, focused mindfulness, his trust, his grit, his uniquely stubborn discipline. “And let this inspire you — because it applies to my 5-year-old daughter, and it applies to my mother. The world may be big, the world may be hard, but still, we as individuals who have a vision and drive can make a difference,” she says. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/55dd058fe4b0bddc4adb096b/5c40f169575d1fac86f5f30f/1752026246755/forbesimg.com_dam_imageserve_1084395184_960x0.jpg Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - Forbes / MarketWatch / Next Avenue | Artificial Intelligence That Helps Doctors Predict When Patients Will Die Forbes / MarketWatch / Next Avenue. | Web Story (Forbes). January 3, 2019. | Web Story (MarketWatch). January 17, 2019. | Web Story (Next Avenue). January 3, 2019. Our final days are difficult because they are infused with uncertainty: We don't know which meal, conversation, embrace or even goodbye will be our last. This is felt perhaps most acutely by those who live with a terminal illness. For these patients, death will come soon — but not right away. Advance care planning — which often begins with a simple, structured conversation — can help patients make decisions and settle what will be done ahead of time, relieving some of chaos and confusion that accompanies end-of-life care. But knowing when to begin this step can be difficult: Families and even doctors can be so optimistic about a loved one's future that a patient can miss the chance to make wishes clear. Dr. Stephanie Harman, the clinical chief of palliative care at Stanford Health Care, is leading a pilot program at Stanford Medicine that explores the potential for artificial intelligence (AI) to help doctors guide patients through these decisions. Though the tool isn't designed to predict a specific time of death — it doesn't give a precise number of months or years — the predictive analytics model identifies patients who have a high probability of dying in three to 12 months. One day this type of model might transform clinical care. Death is notoriously difficult to predict — at great costs to the health care system and, of course, anyone with a loved one nearing the end of life. "[Doctors are] terrible at predicting prognosis," said Harman. "If that information is there [from AI], hopefully that raises the likelihood that the care this patient receives from their health care team matches what they have prioritized. To have care that aligns with what matters most to patients and families — that's the ultimate goal." https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/1468105131434-C17ERWRBCDS5V8JKXFZR/Glenn+Shepard+-+Interview+-+2003.jpg Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - Tiger of the Week: Glenn Shepard ’87, Medical Anthropologist, Ethnobotanist, and Field Researcher Princeton Alumni Weekly. | Web Story. | July 6, 2016 Glenn H. Shepard Jr. ’87 has a lush and noisy backyard: Toucans squawk, parrots chatter, monkeys howl. He lives in the middle of the jungle. Settled in Belém, at the mouth of the Amazon, Shepard works as a full-time researcher and ethnology curator at the Goeldi Museum in Belém do Pará, Brazil. Some might say Shepard lives in paradise. Yet as an ethnobotanist — a researcher interested in how cultures use plants, especially as medicine — Shepard’s work focuses on illness, pain, and stress. Every culture, he says, has found ways to heal. Shepard is a medical anthropologist who has dedicated himself to the Matsigenka, an indigenous people who live in Manú National Park, an isolated natural wonder deep within the Peruvian rain forest. This June, Shepard’s work was featured in National Geographic: “This Park in Peru Is Nature ‘in Its Full Glory’—With Hunters,” by Emma Harris. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/1506473581311-FGWO579B771JG680B6PI/PAW+-+Iran+Vigil+Frank+W.jpg Jeanette Beebe's Print + Digital Journalism Portfolio - Campus Community Holds Vigil to Support Graduate Student Imprisoned in Iran Princeton Alumni Weekly. | Web Story. | September 18, 2017. Hundreds of candles were lit as more than 100 colleagues, family, and friends gathered in East Pyne courtyard Sept. 15 for a vigil to support a Princeton graduate student imprisoned in Iran. Xiyue Wang, a fifth-year graduate student in history, is serving a 10-year prison term after his conviction on two counts of espionage. He was arrested by Iranian authorities in the summer of 2016 as he was completing archival research in Tehran for his dissertation on Eurasian history and has been in custody since then. The University has said that the charges against Wang are “completely false.” Wang’s wife, Hua Qu, told of how she has dealt with the circumstances, day by day. “During the ups and downs of the past year, my hopes for Xi’s release have been shattered time and time again. Every time I think about him, I have stopped imagining how he spends his days, and how long the next 10 years may mean to my family,” she said. “My husband’s health is deteriorating fast.” Wang, 36, is a naturalized American citizen who was born in Beijing. Qu, an attorney who works in Manhattan, and their 4-year-old son are Chinese citizens. https://www.jeanettebeebe.com/jeanette-beebes-poetry-portfolio daily 0.75 2025-03-07 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/535ac9dde4b04c3b3d22fe3e/t/67cb18adc5761925666bb47e/1740546236398/ Jeanette Beebe's Poetry Portfolio -
