The instant New York Times bestseller | Named one of the ten best books of 2019 by People magazine A chance encounter at a summer party on Martha’s Vineyard blossomed into an improbable but enduring friendship. Carly Simon and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis made an unlikely pair—Carly, a free and artistic spirit still reeling from her recent divorce, searching for meaning, new love, and an anchor; and Jackie, one of the most celebrated, meticulous, unknowable women in American history. Nonetheless, over the next decade their lives merged in inextricable and complex ways, and they forged a connection deeper than either could ever have foreseen. The time they spent together—lingering lunches and creative collaborations, nights out on the town and movie dates—brought a welcome lightness and comfort to their days, but their conversations often veered into more profound territory as they helped each other navigate the shifting waters of life lived, publicly, in the wake of great love and great loss. An intimate, vulnerable, and insightful portrait of the bond that grew between two iconic and starkly different American women, Carly Simon’s Touched by the Sun is a chronicle, in loving detail, of the late friendship she and Jackie shared. It is a meditation on the ways someone can unexpectedly enter our lives and change its course, as well as a celebration of kinship in all its many forms. "In Touched by the Sun, Simon reveals an easy-going, playful side of [Jackie] that most people never saw — sneaking a smoke during intermission at the opera, frolicking in the ocean off the Vineyard . . . The woman who would later edit several of Simon’s children’s books was ''just fun to be around.''" —Juliet Pennington, The Boston Globe

Fungal endophytes are known sources of biogically active secondary metabolites. In this research study, the diversity and antibacterial activities of fungal leaf endophytes isolated from healthy leaves of mangroves collected in 16 sites in Luzon Island, Philippines were evaluated. Twetny mangrove fungal leaf endophytes (MFLE morphospecies were isolated and identified as Aspergillus niger, A. ochraceus, Cladosporium sp., Colletotrichum sp., Fusarium spp., Nigrospora spp., Penicillium spp., Pestalotiopsis sp., Phialophora sp., and Trichoderma sp. The province of Zambales and the mangroves A. marina, R. mucronata and S. alba had the highest number of MFLE morphospecies and the highest species diversity. Comparison of species similarities between provinces and mangrove hosts showed clustering of the provinces of Zambales and Batangas, and the commonly encountered mangroves A. marina, r. mucronata and S. alba. The MFLE crude culture extracts were also tested for their antibacterial activities. results showed inhibitory activities against S. aureus, M. luteus and M. phlei. partial to no activity was observed against the gram-negative bacteria, K. oxytoca and P. aeruginosa. the MFLE isolates with antibacterial properties were identified as Phialophora sp., Cladosporium sp., Penicillium sp. 3, and Penicillium sp. 4. Finally, TLC detected up to 13 metabolites in the crude culture extracts. TLS-bioautography showed the presence of bioactive metabolites from MFLE. This is the first extensive report of mangrove leaf endophytes from the Philippines.
