Joining Forces Accomplishments Overview
JOINING FORCES ACCOMPLISHMENTS OVERVIEW COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY JOINING FORCES TO SERVE AND HONOR MILITARY FAMILIES On April 12, 2011, First Lady Michelle Obama and Dr. Jill Biden launched Joining Forces to bring Americans together to recognize, honor and serve our nation’s veterans and military families. The initiative focuses on improving employment, education, and wellness of America’s troops, veterans and military families as well as raising awareness about the service, sacrifice, and needs of all who serve our country, both abroad and here at home. In just one year, Americans from communities across America – our businesses, schools, faith groups, non- profit organizations, and neighborhoods – have stepped up with an overwhelming amount of support for these heroes, not just with words, but with real, concrete actions to make a difference in their lives. Working with Joining Forces, these groups have helped thousands of veterans and military spouses find jobs, improved educational opportunities for military children, supported our nation’s wounded warriors and their caregivers, and honored our nation’s fallen and their families whose strength continues to inspire us all. KEY JOINING FORCES ACCOMPLISHMENTS: Through Joining Forces, American businesses have hired more than 50,000 veterans and military spouses, with a pledge to hire at least 160,000 more in the years ahead. More than 1,600 companies have been involved in this effort, including Microsoft, Comcast, Honeywell, Safeway and Sears. Associations of doctors, nurses, psychologists, social workers and medical schools have committed to educating their memberships on diagnosing and caring for military families affected by post-traumatic stress and traumatic brain injuries – the invisible wounds of our wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. -
Watching Television with Friends: Tween Girls' Inclusion Of
WATCHING TELEVISION WITH FRIENDS: TWEEN GIRLS’ INCLUSION OF TELEVISUAL MATERIAL IN FRIENDSHIP by CYNTHIA MICHIELLE MAURER A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-Camden Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Childhood Studies written under the direction of Daniel Thomas Cook and approved by ______________________________ Daniel T. Cook ______________________________ Anna Beresin ______________________________ Todd Wolfson Camden, New Jersey May 2016 ABSTRACT Watching Television with Friends: Tween Girls’ Inclusion of Televisual Material in Friendship By CYNTHIA MICHIELLE MAURER Dissertation Director: Daniel Thomas Cook This qualitative work examines the role of tween live-action television shows in the friendships of four tween girls, providing insight into the use of televisual material in peer interactions. Over the course of one year and with the use of a video camera, I recorded, observed, hung out and watched television with the girls in the informal setting of a friend’s house. I found that friendship informs and filters understandings and use of tween television in daily conversations with friends. Using Erving Goffman’s theory of facework as a starting point, I introduce a new theoretical framework called friendship work to locate, examine, and understand how friendship is enacted on a granular level. Friendship work considers how an individual positions herself for her own needs before acknowledging the needs of her friends, and is concerned with both emotive effort and social impact. Through group television viewings, participation in television themed games, and the creation of webisodes, the girls strengthen, maintain, and diminish previously established bonds. -

Book Expo America History Will Be Kind to Me, for I Intend to Write It
june-july History is in the details By Brian Thornton Book Expo America History will be kind to me, for I intend to write it. - Winston Churchill Let me tell you, having read both Churchill’s memoirs and some of the “history” he wrote, the guy wasn’t kidding about history written by him being kind to him. And while Churchill’s fictionalization of history was equal parts intentional and unintentional, there is a growing group of authors who intentionally blend not only history and fiction, but history and crime. These writers of “historical mysteries” include such literary lights as Steven Saylor, Anne Perry, Jacqueline Winspear, Jason Goodwin, Steve Hockensmith and Louis Bayard (the first two are past Edgar Award winners, Winspear is a 2004 Edgar nominee and the last three are 2007 Edgar nominees). Whereas research has always played a large role in mystery writing, historical research can be a different animal altogether. I recently asked several historical mystery writers to name their favorite internet research tool, the one that most readily accomplished the twin goal of saving them time and giving them a maximum return on their investment. Hockensmith (Holmes on the Range, On the Wrong Track) Chuck Zito and Bill Bryan greet their fans. (Photos by Margery Flax) points to an overlooked sector of internet research: Yahoo groups. “For my latest book, I needed a ton of material on trains and railroad lines of the 1890s,” he says. After checking “literally dozens of train books” out of the library, Hockensmith still wasn’t getting what he needed, so he joined several Yahoo groups that catered to railroad enthusiasts and hit pay dirt. -

Starr Gardinier Reina The grill is on and the beer is flowing, but Executive Editor something is missing. That’s right: you are still deciding on how to spend your money on the Terri Ann Armstrong Executive Editor books you love. But maybe this year you made a resolution to go out and try some new authors, but J.S. Chancellor are confused when you search Amazon. Because Associate Editor there really are so many choices, you end up picking up the old standby author, because Jim Thomsen you know what you’ll get for your twenty bucks. But where is the fun in that? You are Copy Editor reading the same story with a different cover, aren’t you? I can understand the pros and cons of having the market become flooded with new Contributors authors that either have come from a small publisher, or are self-published. But this is the Donald Allen Kirch future of publishing, so you better get used to it even if you don’t like it. -
