The Journey: The Mike Vollmer Story follows the life of college football star Mike Vollmer and his battle with ALS, also commonly referred to as Lou Gehrig's disease. A brilliant, kind, and gentle soul, once diagnosed, Mike vowed to never be defined by negativity. He promised to fight mentally, emotionally, and spiritually, every day, to be - in his own words - "a fountain of joy, goodness, peace, encouragement, and happiness" for others. He succeeded. Leaving behind a legacy of strength and determination, Mike spent a lifetime inspiring his friends and family. His story may just inspire you, too. About the Author Rosemary Daniel Butzer, RN, MA, came into Mike's life in 2009, when he had a permanent tracheotomy done and went on a ventilator to breathe. Rosemary was instantly impressed by Mike, who remained intelligent, charismatic, and charming, even in the face of adversity. Over the years, she became one of his greatest advocates and friends. Rosemary is a graduate of The Ohio State University (OSU) with a bachelor's degree in nursing and a master of arts in health education. She is also a certified early childhood psychologist. She met her husband George at OSU and both of her children graduated from OSU as well. Over the years, Rosemary has been a huge fan of OSU football. She has also seen first-hand the devastating negative effects such a high-impact sport can have on the players' bodies. Through her writing and actions, she hopes to educate college football fans on the risks of playing the game and lobbies for greater care for players who suffer from severe conditions as a result.

Set in Knoxville, Tennessee, Jefferson finds himself in the middle of a thriving music scene, surrounded by bizarre characters, and immersed in a subculture of research chemicals and promiscuity.

Renowned for making films that are at once sly domestic satires and heartbreaking 'social realist' dramas, British writer-director Mike Leigh confronts his viewers with an un-romanticized dramatization of modern-day society in the hopes of inspiring them to strive for greater self-awareness and compassion for others. This collection features new, interdisciplinary essays that cover all phases of the BAFTA-award-winner’s film career, from his early made-for-television film work to his theatrical releases, including Life is Sweet (1990), Naked (1993), Secrets & Lies (1996), Career Girls (1997), Topsy-Turvy (1999), All or Nothing (2002), Vera Drake (2004), Happy-Go-Lucky (2008) and Another Year (2010).With contributions from international scholars from a variety of fields, the essays in this collection cover individual films and the recurring themes and motifs in several films, such as representations of class and gender, and overt social commentary and political subtexts. Also covered are Leigh's visual stylizations and storytelling techniques ranging from explorations of the costume design to set design to the music and camerawork and editing; the collaborative process of ‘devising and directing’ a Mike Leigh film that involves character-building, world-construction, plotting, improvisations and script-writing; the process of funding and marketing for these seemingly 'uncommercial' projects, and a survey of Leigh’s critical reception and the existing writing on his work.
