2001 (1) (Dec. 2009 to Dec. 2011 newsletters)Class Notes Archives----- From December 2011 AALFNY Newsletter ----- ● The Fasken Martineau Excellence Fund: "Alexandre Sauveplane-Stirling received the fund’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) research grant, which helped offset his travel and living costs for a two-month trip to Colombia during the summer of 2010.....[He] focused his research on the CSR obligations of Canadian corporations operating in Colombia and in Latin America more generally. Sauveplane-Stirling’s time abroad took him all over Bogota, from the mountainous edges of the city’s sprawling skyline to the cavernous mining sites where he investigated how Colombia’s Legal Stability Contract allows the government to regulate labour, environment and human rights. 'I wanted to look at how the contracts are being used and relate their use to corporate social responsibility,' he explained, adding that being on-the-ground gave him direct insight into the international implications of CSR practices and their role in ensuring legal as well as social stability."

Each experience has brought her one step closer to her emergence as a soulful new voice on the music scene.....Equally comfortable with R&B/soul production as she is playing her acoustic guitar, Temtchine has delivered a rich collection of original songs that manages to evoke the vocal stylings of Beyoncé even as it suggests the quiet storytelling of John Mayer or Paula Cole......She grew up in New York to parents with diverse cultural backgrounds, got mixed up with the wrong crowd, and left home in her early teens to see if the world had a better path to offer. From her escapades on the streets of Spanish Harlem to singing in cafes on the sidewalks of Barcelona, Chloé’s gypsy road was paved with real-life experiences that resonate with all of us, and she set those events and those feelings to music......Upon her return to America, she gained a deep appreciation of 70’s soul, R&B, hip- hop and world music at the prestigious Berklee College of Music, then set off to pursue her musical career and hone her sound, which blends classic soul music with timeless pop....."
