Sally Field milled about with her awards-

Lawrence collected kudos from her colleagues, “Life of Pi” director Ang Lee posed for photos and Harvey Weinstein, whose namesake company produced awardsseason contenders such as “Silver Linings Playbook” and “Django Unchained,” smiled broadly as he worked the room.

Brooklyn resident wins Miss America crown Associated Press Writer

LAS VEGAS — A 23-year-old blonde from Brooklyn, N.Y., won the Miss America crown Saturday night after deftly dealing with a question about armed guards in schools and raising the issue of child sexual abuse in her contestant platform. En route to her victory in the Las Vegas pageant, Mallory Hagan also tap danced to James Brown’s “Get Up Off of That Thing,” strutted down the runway in an asymmetrical white gown, and donned a revealing black string bikini. She defeated Miss South Carolina Ali Rogers, who took second, and Miss Oklahoma Alicia Clifton, who finished third. Hagan wins a $50,000 college scholarship and a year as an instant celebrity and role model to many girls. Her platform, the issue she will promote during her reign, is fighting child sexual abuse. She told The Associated Press in an

interview after her win that it was her mother who encouraged her to tackle the issue. She said that sexual abuse had “rippled through” her family, touching her mother, aunt, grandmother and cousins. Her mother had trouble at first convincing others of the trauma she had faced. “That kind of sent her into a whirlwind of anxiety and depression. So as a teen I lost my mom kind of for a couple years,” she said. “She was dealing with her own issues, and that’s something that now as an adult I understand, but then I certainly did not.” During an interview backstage,

Hagan’s mother Mandy Moore wiped tears away as she spoke. “It’s very overwhelming,” she said. “It’s all hitting me so fast.” Hagan said she will work to make child abuse education mandatory in all 50 states. “It’s something I can hopefully change for the next generation,” she said. Hagan left her native Alabama for New York at 18 with less than $1,000 in her pocket. She began competing in pageants when she was 13 and tried for Miss New York in 2010 and 2011 before winning last year. She studied communications at the Fashion Institute of Technology and has been living in the Park Slope neighborhood of Brooklyn. Hagan, who aspires to be a global cosmetic company executive, ends a long dry spell for New York in the competition. The previous winner from that state was actress Vanessa Williams, who became the first black winner when she took the crown in 1984. Hagan is the first Brooklyn-dweller to claim the title. She was good enough during preliminary contests for the 92nd annual Miss America pageant to be chosen as one of 16 semifinalists who moved on to compete in the main show. Her bid lasted through swimsuit, evening wear, and talent competitions that saw cuts after each round. In the final moments of the show, “Good Morning America” weatherman Sam Champion asked her if schools should hire armed guards in the wake of the Newtown, Conn. shooting. “I don’t think the proper was to fight violence is with violence,” she replied. “I think the proper way is to educate people on guns and the ways we can use them properly. We can lock them up, we can have gun safety classes, we can have a longer waiting period.”

Out of slump, Serangan revives to build education tourism IBP/File

The tourists are using the boat the reach the Serangan Island. The island is started to develop and one of the aim is education. Denpasar (Bali Post)—

Serangan village planned to create education tourism on the island. This effort was especially intended to promote the economic recovery of Serangan villagers. As acknowledged by I Made Kanan Jaya, a member of the King Saguna Jaya shell craftsman group, any efforts had been carried out to promote the tourism on Serangan Island. Aside from being a fisherman, a lot of people previously worked as shell craftsmen. However, many craftsmen were then out of business due to marketing problem. “Our obstacle in developing the shell craft lies in the marketing,” said Kanan Jaya, Saturday (Jan 12). According to him, in order to survive amidst the sluggish sales

the craftsmen were planning to develop education tourism on Serangan Island. “Indeed, this kind of tourism has not been available on Serangan Island and it can support the other tourism,” he explained. He explained the shell handicraft was potential enough to be developed in various regions in In-

donesia. “Shell craft can be made a gift to beach tourist attraction and becomes a characteristic of each region,” he added. Additionally, the abundant shells on beaches across the archipelago could be use to produce handicraft in accordance with diverse people’s creativity. In order to realize the education tourism, the shell craftsmen group on Serangan Island would work closely with the Ministry of Fisheries and Maritime Affairs of the RI. Previously, the group had obtained a building aid used for the making of handicrafts. As planned, courtyard of the building would be arranged in order

to support the educational process. “The building assisted by the ministry will be further developed in order to support the education tourism,” he explained. He further explained that to accelerate the promotion of education tourism, administrator of the group would be working closely with travel agencies to visit Serangan Island. Expected, the attraction could be offered as education tourism in their tour package. “After enjoying marine tourism, visitors can resume to the package of education tourism,” he said. The education tourism was meant to teach visitors on how to make shell crafts with the materials and tools

provided at the scene. In addition, visitors would be accompanied by an instructor from local people who had worked as shell craftsmen since 15 years ago. “The education tourism is expected to support the development of shell handicraft and increase livelihood on Serangan Island,” he hoped. Previously, the number of shell craftsmen on Serangan Island reached more than 70 people. However, in keeping with the passage of time, many craftsmen went bankrupt because they found difficulty in marketing. Now, the number of surviving craftsmen only amounted to six people. (kmb27)
