    Praise for You Are Not Alone “Parents of prodigals often wrestle with feelings of profound loneliness and alienation. In her moving account, Dena Yohe offers encouraging reminders that countless other parents have been there too. Her wise and compassionate advice is sure to comfort and uplift many hurting moms and dads.” — Jim Daly, president of Focus on the Family “This honest book is full of Dena’s wisdom, experience, and compassion. Her daughter’s story has helped thousands of young people believe that no matter the circumstances they’re not alone and recovery is possible. I have no doubt that Dena’s perspective will do the same for parents.” — Jamie Tworkowski, founder of To Write Love on Her Arms and New York Times best- selling author of If You Feel Too Much “Ms. Yohe’s writing echoes in the deepest chamber of my parent- heart because she teaches me how much parent- love hurts, breaks, then heals, and— ultimately— molds us into people who can be deeply engaged in the Spirit of God. While there is no doubt that I will be using this book in my clinical counseling practice, I can also imagine that there is a hun- gry and vast readership that has been longing to hear from an author who understands the grit it takes to hope for a better tomorrow. She teaches us parents to ‘starve our fears and feed our faith’ with practical ways to grieve and respond to the difficult issues. What a vital resource!” — Mary Ellen Mann, LCSW, president of Last Battle and Mann Counseling Group “Having a child or family member struggling with things like addiction or depression can lead to so many painful days and hopeless nights.

  • Michael Jackson's Gesamtkunstwerk
    Liminalities: A Journal of Performance Studies Vol. 11, No. 5 (November 2015) Michael Jackson’s Gesamtkunstwerk: Artistic Interrelation, Immersion, and Interactivity From the Studio to the Stadium Sylvia J. Martin Michael Jackson produced art in its most total sense. Throughout his forty-year career Jackson merged art forms, melded genres and styles, and promoted an ethos of unity in his work. Jackson’s mastery of combined song and dance is generally acknowledged as the hallmark of his performance. Scholars have not- ed Jackson’s place in the lengthy soul tradition of enmeshed movement and mu- sic (Mercer 39; Neal 2012) with musicologist Jacqueline Warwick describing Jackson as “embodied musicality” (Warwick 249). Jackson’s colleagues have also attested that even when off-stage and off-camera, singing and dancing were frequently inseparable for Jackson. James Ingram, co-songwriter of the Thriller album hit “PYT,” was astonished when he observed Jackson burst into dance moves while recording that song, since in Ingram’s studio experience singers typically conserve their breath for recording (Smiley). Similarly, Bruce Swedien, Jackson’s longtime studio recording engineer, told National Public Radio, “Re- cording [with Jackson] was never a static event. We used to record with the lights out in the studio, and I had him on my drum platform. Michael would dance on that as he did the vocals” (Swedien ix-x). Surveying his life-long body of work, Jackson’s creative capacities, in fact, encompassed acting, directing, producing, staging, and design as well as lyri- cism, music composition, dance, and choreography—and many of these across genres (Brackett 2012).

  • Tracking Temporal Community Strength in Dynamic Networks Nan Du, Xiaowei Jia, Jing Gao, Vishrawas Gopalakrishnan, and Aidong Zhang, IEEE Fellow
    IEEE Transactions on Knowledge and Data Engineering Vol No 99 Year 2015 1 Tracking Temporal Community Strength in Dynamic Networks Nan Du, Xiaowei Jia, Jing Gao, Vishrawas Gopalakrishnan, and Aidong Zhang, IEEE Fellow Abstract—Community formation analysis of dynamic networks has been a hot topic in data mining which has attracted much attention. Recently, there are many studies which focus on discovering communities successively from consecutive snapshots by considering both the current and historical information. However, these methods cannot provide us with much historical or successive information related to the detected communities. Different from previous studies which focus on community detection in dynamic networks, we define a new problem of tracking the progression of the community strength - a novel measure that reflects the community robustness and coherence throughout the entire observation period. To achieve this goal, we propose a novel framework which formulates the problem as an optimization task. The proposed community strength analysis also provides foundation for a wide variety of related applications such as discovering how the strength of each detected community changes over the entire observation period. To demonstrate that the proposed method provides precise and meaningful evolutionary patterns of communities which are not directly obtainable from traditional methods, we perform extensive experimental studies on one synthetic and five real datasets: social evolution, tweeting interaction, actor relationships, bibliography and biological datasets. Experimental results show that the proposed approach is highly effective in discovering the progression of community strengths and detecting interesting communities. Index Terms—Dynamic Networks, Community Analysis, Community Strength F 1 INTRODUCTION from the outside world.
