Students practice taking short sections of the test\, and are relaxed and well-rested\, so they are able to absorb the lessons and practice at their best. Using lessons that she writes herself\, Smyth has helped many students through their own hard work improve their SAT scores by 100-200 points.

Together\, we’ll delve into verbal and somatic strategies to move away from brittle reactivity and into resilient responsiveness. You will leave this course with an understanding of how neuroscience and resonant language can help strengthen harmony and authentic connection. \nWe will explore: \n– practical things to do and say to help people calm down\n– how whatever is happening makes sense and can be worked with\n– sources of trauma and what happens in our brains and bodies when trauma is activated\n– the practical power of Resonant Language \nThese tools are easily learned and can have immediate results. \nThis program is designed to benefit: \n– People who work with youth (childcare providers\, ed techs\, educators\, school counselors\, school administrators\, social workers\, teachers)\n– Frontline workers\n– People who work in service industries\n– Municipal workers\n– Parents/guardians URL:/calendar/event/calm-strong-emotions-with-resonant-language/2026-09-09/ CATEGORIES:Conferences & Workshops,Lectures & Seminars,Online Events END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20260910T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20260910T170000 DTSTAMP:20260901T152339Z CREATED:20260901T152339Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260901T152339Z UID:10013041-1789056000-1789059600@umaine.edu SUMMARY:Making the most of Citation Managers - Zotero Edition DESCRIPTION:Join us at Fogler library to learn how researchers can use a citation manager to organize their sources and cite them properly in a bibliography. Citation managers save you time and effort by organizing the articles\, books\, and other publications you find\, and cite while you write in-text citations and bibliographies. The presentation will focus on the citation manager “Zotero\,” but will include tips on how to use any citation manager.  Expect live demos\, clever tips\, and a few “I didn’t know I could do that” moments.

Sessions cover topics such as electronic record-keeping\, workforce training\, chemical safety\, food adulteration prevention\, seafood pathogen detection\, audit readiness\, product development\, environmental air quality\, and alternative protein innovations. The series is designed for food producers\, processors\, seafood businesses\, entrepreneurs\, quality assurance staff\, extension educators\, students\, faculty\, regulatory professionals\, and technical specialists\, with particular relevance for those working with food safety training\, compliance systems\, seafood hazards\, product development\, and emerging technologies in food processing. \nFood businesses and professionals face increasing regulatory expectations\, evolving hazards\, and rapid technological change. By addressing real-world topics such as digital compliance systems\, chemical handling\, adulteration prevention\, seafood pathogen detection\, and audit preparation\, the series helps participants stay current and make informed\, practical decisions. Participants will gain practical tools\, real-world case studies\, and actionable strategies related to training programs\, compliance documentation\, safe chemical use\, adulteration prevention\, seafood safety\, product innovation\, and environmental controls—knowledge they can immediately apply in their operations\, classrooms\, or regulatory work. \nFood Safety Without Fear: Building Safe Products from Day One\nFood safety doesn’t have to be intimidating\, expensive\, or a barrier to innovation. Drawing on real-world experience launching Maine Garum Company\, Liam Fisher discusses how to integrate food safety directly into seafood product development early\, simply\, and effectively. We’ll break down how to think about risk analysis\, navigate regulation\, design safe processes\, and build confidence so you can create without fear. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by regulations or unsure where to start\, this talk is for you. \nTo Register and Receive Webinar Zoom Link URL:/calendar/event/food-safety-webinar-series-ffood-safety-without-fear-building-safe-products-from-day-one/ CATEGORIES:Conferences & Workshops,Online Events ORGANIZER;CN="91 Cooperative Extension":MAILTO:extension@maine.edu LOCATION:/calendar/event/food-safety-webinar-series-ffood-safety-without-fear-building-safe-products-from-day-one/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
