Pinnacle Scoresby
Sara Legath
At the very top of the world, where Asia, Europe and North America converge, the Arctic sits firmly at the pinnacle of many people's travel 'wish lists'. Pristine landscapes, bountiful wildlife, indigenous tribes and natural phenomena give the Arctic a unique appeal to expeditioners. Polar bears, the so-called 'Kings of the Arctic', roam the icy wastes and are the top attraction for many visitors.
Other species to be seen include whales, seals, walruses, Arctic foxes, musk oxen, reindeer and numerous birds. The main season for Arctic expeditions is the northern summer between May and September, when the 'Land of the Midnight Sun' comes into its own with 24-hour daylight ensuring plenty of time to experience these incredible landscapes.
"This expedition offers a twist on the typical Antarctica Peninsula voyage. It's been designed especially for adventure seekers, so mountaineering, snowshoeing, hiking, kayaking and even camping overnight on the peninsula is included!"

NEWARK, Del. - The No. 12 Penn State women's lacrosse team opened a three-game road swing in successful fashion on Saturday afternoon, cruising to a 12-6 victory over Delaware (2-5) at Delaware Stadium in Newark. With the win, the Nittany Lions remain undefeated on the year on the road, upping their record to 3-0.
Penn State went on 3-0 and 5-0 runs in the first half to build a commanding lead and never looked back to move to 5-2 overall on the year. Freshman Maggie McCormick (Eldersburg, Md.) had a game-high five points, scoring three goals and two assists all in the first 20 minutes of the game. Senior Theresa Zichelli (Severna Park, Md.) also netted a hat trick, her first of the season. Senior goalkeeper Dana Cahill (Towson, Md.) made nine saves against 19 Blue Hens shots.
Unassisted goals by Zichelli, McCormick, and freshman Kelly Lechner (Silver Spring, Md.) through the opening six-plus minutes set the tone for the game and provided Penn State with a quick 3-0 lead. When the Blue Hens cut into the Nittany Lion advantage with their first goal at the 21:28 mark it would prove to be the pinnacle for UD, as it could get no closer throughout the remainder of the game.
Penn State then took control of the game, as McCormick heated up and went on a tear. The Nittany Lions scored five unanswered and the freshman attacker had a hand in four of the goals. McCormick netted goals at the 11:23 and 9:56 marks and assisted on scores by sophomore Mackenzie Cyr (Westminster, Md.) and Zichelli. An unassisted goal by fellow freshman Tatum Coffey (Toms River, N.J.) with 3:59 on the clock ballooned the Penn State lead to 8-1.
Penn State took its foot off the pedal in the second half, trading goals with Delaware throughout the period but never allowing the lead to dip below six goals. Three of the Nittany Lions' second half goals, netted by Zichelli, Purvis, and Cyr, came on free position conversions. Lechner also scored her second of the game, off a pass from junior Molly Fernandez (Baltimore, Md.).
Penn State will venture back out of the road next week, traveling to Hempstead, N.Y. for a mid-week game with Hofstra (2-3). The Nittany Lions and Pride will meet on Wednesday, March 14 at 3 p.m. at James M. Shuart Stadium. A year ago, Penn State used an 11-goal second half outburst to down Hofstra, 16-7, in Happy Valley in the first-ever meeting between the two programs.
The study showed an increase in occupant satisfaction by nearly 30%, as well as occupant perceived well-being scores by 26%, mental health by 10% and productivity by 10 median points in WELL Certified buildings.
NEW YORK, October 27, 2022 /3BL Media/ - A new study in the Journal of Building and Environment found that WELL Certification drives significant benefits across occupant satisfaction, perceived health, well-being and productivity.
The research team analyzed the impact of WELL Certification using more than 1,300 pre- and post-occupancy survey responses from six companies in North America with analyses conducted at both the aggregate and company level.
WELL is the leading global framework for scaling health across buildings, organizations and communities. Developed over a decade and backed by more than 7,000 studies demonstrating the latest scientific research, WELL outlines key building-level interventions and organizational strategies across 10 categories: Air, Water, Nourishment, Light, Movement, Thermal Comfort, Sound, Materials, Mind and Community. Today, WELL is being used in 125 countries, by more than 100 of the Fortune 500 companies and across more than 4.2 billion square feet of real estate.
In addition to finding that WELL Certification increased overall occupant well-being by 26%, the study also found it helped occupants feel more energized, more motivated to work and more confident that the workplace is conducive to health as well as an increased sense of pride in being a part of the organization.
WELL Certification represents the highest pinnacle of health and well-being under the WELL Building Standard, spanning 108 features across all 10 categories in WELL. It provides a roadmap for improving the quality of our air, water and light with inspired design decisions that not only keep us connected but facilitate a good night's sleep, support our mental health and help us do our best work every day.
