Into Fields of Fire

Into Fields of Fire

Austin J Buck Buchanan; W L George Collins

pokkari
This story is taken from notes Austin "Buck" Buchanan wrote in notebooks he carried in his pocket all during World War II. "Buck" is no longer with us. W. L. George Collins edited and compiled "Buck's" notes into a manuscript that became this book. Here you will ride with "Buck" as he flies his plane through a field of fire so intense that one shell blows a hole in the plane big enough for a man to go through and uncountable bullet holes perforated the plane. All aircraft controls are shot out except elevator and ailerons. You will ride with him as he manages to complete his mission and bring his barely flying plane back to England. And you will ride with him through hundreds more such harrowing trips, in his C-47 with no armor plate and no guns, into other fields of fire and often impossible weather.

Leading for Change in Early Care and Education

Leading for Change in Early Care and Education

Teachers' College Press

Featuring both research findings and practical recommendations, this book presents an innovative framework for nurturing leadership in the care and education of young children. Early educators are often seen as the objects of change, rather than the architects and co-creators of change. Douglass calls for a paradigm shift in thinking that challenges many long-held stereotypes about the early care and education workforce’s capacity to lead change. Case studies show how educators use their expertise every day to make a difference in the lives of children and families.These accounts demonstrate concrete strategies for expanding current thinking about who can be leaders for change and for developing more inclusive pathways for leadership. This book has the potential to revolutionize the field with a new model for developing and nurturing innovative, entrepreneurial, and skilled early educator leaders capable of driving transformative change—from classrooms and home-based programs to communities and beyond. Includes a cross-disciplinary examination of leadership, improvement, and innovation, a framework for building ecosystems that supports professional growth and teacher retention, case studies that reveal immense untapped potential from within the early care and education workforce, and a critical look at the current state of leadership and quality improvement in early childhood education.

All the information researchers, students, and practitioners need to conducted innovative, state-of-the-art research on small mammals.Rodents and insectivores constitute the vast majority of mammals on our planet, yet we often overlook the importance of this group. As seed dispersers, prey species, and disease regulators, these animals are critical to the functioning of our ecological systems. While considerable material exists that describes these species, there has been no dedicated guide explaining how to effectively research them—until now. Methods for Ecological Research on Terrestrial Small Mammals is a one-stop resource compiling all the information readers need to conduct state-of-the-art research on small terrestrial mammals across the globe. The authors cover the full spectrum of issues, from capture, handling, identification, reproduction, demography, and taxonomy to behavior, diet, evolution, diseases, movements, morphometrics, and more. They also:• highlight the latest techniques while carefully explaining the tried-and-tested methods needed to conduct rigorous scientific inquiries; • provide step-by-step examples and case studies, demonstrating how the methods discussed can be used in actual research projects; • compare and contrast methodologies, analytical techniques, and software packages, helping researchers determine which pathways and tools will yield the best results for their studies. A comprehensive and invaluable resource, Methods for Ecological Research on Terrestrial Small Mammals is a must-have for any ecologist working on small mammals.
Aunting

Aunting

Whether related by biology, marriage, circumstance, or choice, aunts embody a uniquely flexible familial role. The aunt-niece/nephew relationship - though often overlooked - is critical and complex, one that appears at the core of a resilient, healthy family life.In this engaging book, Laura Ellingson and Patricia Sotirin construct a consideration of ""aunts"" that moves from noun to verb. ""Aunts"" is more than a group of people or a role; instead, ""to aunt"" is a practice, something people ""do."" Some women ""aunt"" as second mothers, friends, or mentors, while others play more peripheral roles. In either case, aunts nonetheless significantly impact their nieces and nephews' life choices.Drawing on personal narratives that represent a rich cross section of society, Ellingson and Sotirin construct a cohesive story of the diversity of aunting experiences in the contemporary United States. Skillfully written, Aunting recovers the enormous potential of this dynamic kinship relationship and offers a model for understanding and supporting the variety of families in society today.
Playing the Field: A Novel by J.L. Mejias

With his 30th birthday a few years away, Cas is starting to realign his priorities, and a loving, monogamous relationship makes sense to him now more than ever. Jake, on the other hand, is "just hitting his stride" and has no plans on slowing down his no strings attached ways or free-wheeling nightlife. Cas suffers a devastating break up that sends him spiraling into a deep depression. Jake, along with old high school friends, Chen and Manolo, try to help Cas get through this tough time. As they embark on to different stages of their lives, will their friendship endure through Cas's latest depression? Have they grown too far apart to salvage their friendship? Will Cas find the one true love he so desperately seeks? Step into the dating world through the eyes of young and eligible bachelors, as they set to conquer Life, Love and Lust in New York City.
