Down the Road Less Traveled: Alcoholism to Shangri-La
Gerald M. Knowles Ed D.

Thrust into the great American Southwest life faced me with a road fraught between the challenges created by emergent social expectations on the one hand and the successive phases of my personal development on the other hand. My path was marked with breathtaking natural wonders, astonishing friends and inspiring experience and rich opportunity. The cumulative deficits of failures to obtain necessary shares of such virtues at each successsive stage made it tough to adequately perform at common standards of success. Alcohol became the substitute to provide escape and a sense of "feel good." At the brink of my dark abyss of self-destruction and despair groups of sober allies lifted me up. From whence unknown my tiny being alighted aside Cleopatra Hill in the United Verde Hospital amid the raucous and roaring copper mining souls of Jerome, Arizona. Doting females infused deep trust and hope that was essential later to sail through dark clouds of anger and abuse. Independence, wealth, romance and determination were discovered in Albuquerque. Fidelity and competence were captured on the football fields of the Winslow Bulldogs. Leadership and sportsmanship were bestowed by long time Flagstaff buddies. Strong identification with the life of Father Damien of the leper colony of Molokai flowered which led to the quest to become a Catholic priest. Leaving a religious vocation positioned me as ripe for romance and commitment. I suffered a Gatsby romance and ultimately partnered with an idyllic movie star look-alike, married her and fathered four children. I committed to become a teacher instructing elementary children, administering a large school and attaining advanced professional status as a university lab school demonstration teacher. I was catapulted out of Arizona to the University of Illinois doctorate program, a Rubicon crossing and total change of life-exhilarating, prolific, yet leading ultimately to disaster and demoralization. Tours of duty at three major universities afforded the opportunity to share and implement long held skills and values about education-good motives but faulted delivery. Finding 'no home' again in native Arizona State pushed me to Purdue, the streets of Gary, Indiana and my commitment to social change and civil rights. The wide-open opportunities and pressures accelerated to such a degree that alcohol was required as a substitute for feeling and action. Life became a downward spiral into a black abyss of 'pitiful and unbelievable demoralization.' The flight back to Arizona ended in a crash dive into another jail cell. Angels of sobriety appeared and pulled me back from the edge of catastrophe. Cleared of paralyzing dysfunction I pledged service to Navajo Nation. I witnessed the creation of hundreds of Navajo teachers and a group of school administrators. I played the unwanted role as prosecutor to remove the president of Navajo Community College. Refugee from a cancelled election I assisted the administrative capture of the first Apache controlled school. Then, I worked as a sheep dog for Kayenta in the establishment of the first autonomous Township within a Native American community- awarded high honors by Harvard. The magic carpet of 'Dances with Wolves' days lifted me up and through major challenges. Time came for contemplating my accomplishments and developing a sense of integrity for having a successful life. Noting my gifts of achievements has led to the acquisition of the virtue of wisdom. Onset of wisdom enables me to look back on my life with a sense of closure and completeness, and acceptance death without fear. It is a time of releasing the loss of existing relationships and reuniting with former acquaintances. The demons of terror, shame, rage and loneliness that had chased my spirit down roads and over passages had vanished. Joy, peace and freedom became irreplaceably bound to my being. Happiness of the soul was lifted above all circumstances and remains inside my personal Shangri-La.

In this post-9/11 world, therapists need to expand their toolboxes to deal with trauma and its effects. This book provides a new way of dealing with the devastating emotional residue of a traumatic event. It centers on the innovative application of hypnotherapy to help trauma victims "self-actualize," regain their lives, and move forward again. This book outlines the effects of trauma on mind and body and provides comprehensive systems and treatment plans for the mental disorders caused or exacerbated by trauma. Many people are familiar with the famous "fight" or "flight" responses to trauma, but few now about the "freeze" response.

Increasing Enrollment of African-American Males in Advanced High School Mathematics and Science Courses, is an action research that highlights barriers that contribute to the disparity and increasing achievement gap between students of color and their counterparts of other ethnicities. Dr. Macauley provides a framework through which a K-12 institution can objectively examine and address systemic factors that impede the equity and access in the representation of students of color in the STEM pipeline. To counter the plethora of deficit-focused research, he addresses the need for pragmatic solutions through effective teaching that is relevant, high levels of student engagement that is challenging, and support that provides strategic interventions and on-going mentorships. This book is a must read for parents and those who champion the cause and advocate for maximizing the potential of our students to be adequately prepared to compete on the national and global STEM career opportunities of the 21st Century.

Why Bad Grades Happen to Good Teachers: Creating Environments Where All Students LEARN

There's no doubt. The explosion of new information we are called on to teach is overwhelming. The volume of new technologies available to our students expands daily. That's not going to change. Presenting their system for creating those environments, which they call the STRONG Model (first introduced in their award-winning book for parents, Why Bad Grades Happen to Good Kids, the Silberts reveal the wisdom they've acquired in over 40 years of working with students as teachers, administrators and educational therapists. This is a must-read for teachers and administrators caught in the chaos of trying to conduct school-as-usual in the midst of implementing new performance requirements for both students and teachers--the Common Core State Standards and the InTASC Standards specifically. The Silberts connect the dots between the longstanding mission of educators and those things that teachers need to know and do to demonstrate proficiency with respect to the InTASC standards and evaluation models like the Danielson Framework. And as they say in the book, "...if we as teachers, parents, administrators and other school personnel stay current with respect to new content and methods and keep our eyes on the mission-to create environments where all students have opportunity to LEARN and experience academic success-student test scores, school ratings, and teacher evaluations will all take care of themselves." Easy to read and digest, Why Bad Grades Happen to Good Teachers is a book you will want to keep close by and refer to often.
Stone of Help: Ebenezer: The First Fifty Years (1911 - 1961)

In naming their church after the biblical monument "Ebenezer," which in Hebrew means "stone of help," the leaders of Harlem's Ebenezer Gospel Tabernacle were teaching their congregation the value of remembering from where they had come. Today, 100 years later, this stone memorial continues to remind these ordinary people that God has played an extraordinary role in building their faith community. Dr. Marilyn Maye has written a compilation of history and edited a collection of memoirs for the spiritual offspring of Ebenezer's earliest members. However, readers from similar faith communities may be surprised by how much history the Ebenezer family shares with them. The triumphs and pitfalls of early immigrant pioneers of color to New York City, living and worshipping alongside pioneers of the Black migrations from the southern states, are highlighted in Stone of Help, a book that can be instructive to people who've recently migrated to the U.S., as well as to people born here. Set in early to mid-20th century Harlem, Stone of Help chronicles Ebenezer's humble beginnings in both spiritual and sociological contexts. Maye shows how, in the midst of two world wars, a horrific flu pandemic, racial discrimination, and hostile workplace conditions, these pioneers nevertheless survived and even flourished. Some of the memoirs may disturb you; others may make you laugh out loud. Hopefully, all of them will inspire you. In time, Ebenezer's members spread across the city, the nation, and the globe, carrying their unique heritage into leadership positions in a variety of religious and secular institutions. Today, Ebenezer's legacy is etched in stone and also in the lives of people who have been transformed by faith in Christ as taught and modeled at the church. As Ebenezer and other such churches continue the journey into their second century, Maye points to the challenges of being in neighborhoods with changing demographics and in communities that place a lesser value on religious thought and practice. However, she also points to the benefits that come from recalling the triumphs that the early pioneers experienced-with God's help. Proceeds from the sale of this book go towards sustaining this Harlem landmark, as the congregation enters its second century.

Professor Bloomer's Aesop's fables are designed to: Improve reading comprehensionDevelop strong thinking skills, and study habitsExpand the student's ability to think about and apply what he or she has readIncrease test scores and school gradesRelate these fables to situations in real lifeReinforce moral preceptsExpand vocabularyFor centuries fables have been used to provide moral lessons, to teach the young the ways of a culture, and to transmit practical wisdom. In western culture, probably the best-known examples of this genre are the fables believed to have been written by an ancient Greek slave named Aesop. Aesop's fables encourage children to think before they act, to control impulsiveness, and to demonstrate helpfulness. They teach children to be wary of smooth talkers and other trickery. The fables also teach the value of hard work and creative thinking, and they promote self-reliance and the ability to make the best of adversity. What better subject matter to teach children to understand what they read?
