Till Heist Do Us Part

Till Heist Do Us Part

Jeanne Callahan; Michael Harvey

Jeanne Trantel's life was perfect-or so it seemed. She had it all: a loving husband who worked on Wall Street, two beautiful, healthy sons, and a dream home in the affl uent Long Island community where she grew up, surrounded by friends and family. But then, with one phone call, the life she knew and loved came crashing down around her. "Your husband," the caller said, "is in custody for a series of bank robberies that have occurred all over Nassau County." Jeanne would soon discover that her husband, Stephen, was living a lie. He was no longer the Wall Street trader that Jeanne, his family, and his friends all thought him to be. Instead of heading to Wall Street each morning as he claimed, Stephen was robbing banks. In Till Heist Do Us Part, Jeanne chronicles the human toll of this ripped-from-the- headlines true story. Consumed by anger and humiliation and faced with mounting debt and piles of unpaid bills, Jeanne entered what she describes as the "darkest time" in her life. But Jeanne's story is not a tragedy; it is a story of hope and redemption, of faith, love, and the power of forgiveness.

Increasing Service User Participation in Local Planning

Increasing Service User Participation in Local Planning

Judith Dunlop; Michael Holosko

Oxford University Press Inc
2016

This manual guides macro practitioners as they bring service users into the community planning process. The authors have developed the Community Development Planning Model (CDPM)-a cohesive eight step planning framework anchored in the concept of empowerment. This framework changes the relationship between service users and providers by structuring defined parallel and joint planning tracks that encourage not only service user participation but leadership, and promotes democratic decision-making. Using this model to engage service users encourages transparency, allows for the inclusion of minority voices, and increases planning and program effectiveness. This approach will be a significant asset in community planning and development courses. The author's manual helps students understand both the complexity of managing stakeholder relationships and the necessity of a rigorous evidence-informed approach to planning.
The Trans–Pacific Partnership and Asia–Pacific Integration – A Quantitative Assessment

The Trans–Pacific Partnership and Asia–Pacific Integration – A Quantitative Assessment

While global trade negotiations remain stalled, two tracks of trade negotiations in the Asia-Pacific-the proposed Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) agreement and a parallel Asian track-could generate momentum for renewed liberalization and provide pathways to region-wide free trade. This book investigates what these trade negotiations could mean to the world economy. Petri, Plummer, and Zhai estimate that world income would rise by $295 billion per year on the TPP track, by $766 billion if both tracks are successful, and by $1.9 trillion if the tracks ultimately combine to yield region-wide free trade. They find that the tracks are competitive initially but their strategic implications appear to be constructive: the agreements would generate incentives for enlargement and mutual progress and, over time, for region-wide consolidation. The authors conclude that the crucial importance of Asia-Pacific integration argues for an early conclusion of the TPP negotiations, but without jeopardizing the prospects for region-wide or even global agreements based on it in the future.
Experiential Learning and Community Partnerships for Sustainable Development

Experiential Learning and Community Partnerships for Sustainable Development

This book addresses the growing demand for applied experiences that move students beyond learning into the realm of doing by supporting the development of skills and competencies that align with emerging areas of innovation and work. It considers the urgent need to promote and invest in skills that support sustainable development, such as those needed to analyze and mitigate climate change. The authors argue that this challenge provides an opportunity to reimagine the use of Experiential Learning, connecting students with community-based partners doing the work of sustainable development around the world. Featuring compelling case studies of project partners in Nigeria, Uganda, and Tanzania working to address the complexities of climate change, they offer a practical model for implementing Experiential Learning that can be translated and scaled across sectors and resource environments. It is aimed at scholars and educators working across higher education and international education with interests in digital and experiential education.

American Moment: Framework for US Policy in the 21st Century and Platform for an American Unity Party
The Moment Is Now Increasingly polarized, with Washington in legislative gridlock, more Americans are asking how we can possibly get back to a common-sense, middle path that most of us can agree on. American Moment shows us how we got to this point of dysfunction and more importantly how we can get back on track. American Moment tackles crucial policy issues dealing with debt, spending, and taxes. It shows us how we can create a new process for making the national strategic investments that have been neglected for decades due to partisan politics. It asks and answers the hard questions: -Why we spend more than double for our healthcare than most other developed nations while enjoying inferior health outcomes -Why our children cannot compete with students in other nations in math, science and reading -Why political slogans like "Drill Baby Drill" and "All of the Above" are no substitute for a national energy policy designed around 21st century sustainable technology -Why not having a strategic foundation for our foreign policy for more than two decades is undermining our security and influence in the world -Why we spend as much on defense as the next fourteen largest military spending nations combined How the two parties have subverted the intent of the Constitution's Framers and why it will take three constitutional amendments to fix it. -And why, after spending a trillion dollars on the "War on Drugs," we have become a prison nation - incarcerating our citizens at a higher rate than any other country - and still suffer too much violent crime Offering thirty specific policy proposals to resolve these issues, American Moment challenges all Americans to support the formation of a moderate new American Unity Party, to get involved in the dialogue, and to become part of the solution. If you are frustrated with the failed leadership of our two-party system, American Moment shows how those from both sides of the political spectrum can move to the center to fix what is broken in our nation - benefiting all Americans for generations to come.
Rubber Reinforcement with Particulate Fillers

Rubber Reinforcement with Particulate Fillers

Hanser Publications

In the rubber industry, one of the most widely practiced processes is the reinforcement of rubber by particulate fillers, especially carbon black and silica. This process is of such importance that more than 99% of rubber products contain fillers, and the research and development of fillers have become the most widely researched area in rubber science and technology. This book covers the most important theoretical and practical aspects of rubber reinforcement, such as filler basic properties and their characterization methods, the effect of fillers in polymers, the processability of compounds, and the properties of filled vulcanizates. Special chapters deal with applications of fillers in tires and industrial rubber goods and the reinforcement of silicone rubbers. Testing methods and their principles, applications, and limitations are reviewed, with emphasis on the surface activity, widely accepted as the “third dimension” of filler characterization, after particle size and structure. This has not been described in depth in other books on rubber reinforcement. The effects of fillers on rubber and their mechanisms, which are important links between filler properties and the performance of rubber goods, are explained. A guide for selecting the most appropriate reinforcing systems for specific applications is provided, taking into account processabilities and properties of filled compounds and performance of rubber products. With solutions to many practical problems related to rubber research and compounding, this book serves as a valuable companion to engineers and product developers in the rubber industry, material scientists, and teachers and students in material science and rubber courses.

Professional Development Schools offer P-12 schools and universities the opportunity to create rich learning environments for students, teacher candidates, teachers, university professors and administrators. The creation of Professional Development Schools requires careful thought and planning by leaders from both institutions who understand the importance of a systemic approach to gathering information that will allow them to build strong, sustainable partnerships.This book is a practical, hands-on guide to exploring and assessing school and university readiness and compatibility to pursue a PDS partnership. The Professional Development School Exploration and Assessment (PDSEA) Protocol provides surveys and focus group interview questions that facilitate the identification of P-12 school and teacher preparation program qualities, characteristics and perceptions to determine institutional compatibility. Collaborative discussion and PDS planning templates provide guidelines for planning new PDSs. Assessment instruments used with the PDSEA Protocol are available online.The authors offer unique insights into Professional Development Schools based on their experiences as educators in elementary, middle school, high school and as university professors who have been active in Professional Development Schools for 13 years. In this book, they share their insights and practical ideas about what it takes to develop viable and sustainable Professional Development Schools. Developed over a period of 8 years in a study that involved three universities and 13 partner schools, the PDSEA Protocol will assist teacher preparation programs, P-12 school districts and individual school sites as they explore, assess and plan school-university partnerships.
