Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Every 85 minutes someone in the UK takes their own life, but what happens to those left behind? In a society where suicide is often viewed with fear or disapproval, it can be difficult for those personally affected by a suicide death to come to terms with their loss and seek help and support. A Special Scar looks in detail at the stigma surronding suicide and offers practical help for survivors, relatives and friends of people who have taken their own life. Fifty bereaved people tell their own stories, showing us that, by not hiding the truth from themselves and others, they have been able to learn to live with the suicide, offering hope to others facing this traumatic loss. This new, revised edition includes new material on:* counselling survivors of suicide* group work with survivors.The new material incorporates the latest research findings which have added significantly to our understanding of the impact of suicide, an area which the UK Government has targeted for action in the mental health arena. This new edition will continue to be an invaluable resource for survivors of suicide as well as for all those who are in contact with them, including police and coroner's officers, bereavement services, self-help organisations for survivors, mental health professionals, social workers, GPs, counsellors and therapists.Alison Wertheimer has been working as a freelance writer and researcher since 1987, after working in the voluntary sector for twenty years.

The War Between the States was the first large and prolonged conflict recorded by photography. During the war, dozens of photographers, both as private individuals and as employees of the Confederate and Union Governments, photographed civilians and civilian activities; military personnel, equipment, and activities; and the locations and aftermaths of battles. Because wet-plate collodion negatives required from 5 to 20 seconds exposure, there are no action photographs of the war. The name Mathew B. Brady is almost a synonym for Civil War photography. Though Brady himself actually may have taken only a few photographs of the war, he employed many of the other well-known photographers before and during the war. Alexander Gardner and James F. Gibson at different times managed Brady's Washington studio. Timothy O'Sullivan, James Gardner, and Egbert Guy Fox were also employed by Brady during the conflict. The pictures listed in this publication are in the Still Picture Branch of the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). Photographs included in this leaflet have been listed under one of four main headings: activities, places, portraits, and Lincoln's assassination. Items in the first two parts are arranged under subheadings by date, with undated items at the end of each subheading. Photographs of artworks have also been included in the list. Any item not identified as an artwork is a photograph. And an index to photographers follows the list. The National Archives Trust Fund was established by Congress in 1941 to receive gifts or bequests to finance specific projects of the National Archives. The funds were to be administered by the newly created National Archives Trust Fund Board on behalf of the National Archives. The first gift of $30,000 was designated for the preservation of a collection of permanently valuable sound recordings. In 1948, an amendment to the National Archives Act permitted the Archivist to deposit into the Trust Fund the proceeds from the sale of reproductions of records. A gift from the Rockefeller Foundation that year for financing the reproduction of records enabled the National Archives to begin its records reproduction program and to effectively turn the Trust Fund into a revolving fund. The Presidential Libraries Act of 1955 further expanded the Trust Fund by authorizing the deposit of gifts and the proceeds from museum admission fees and sales of reproductions, catalogs, and related items to a specific Presidential Library Archives Trust Fund account for each library, where the funds would be administered and expended on behalf of the library. The National Archives and Records Administration Act of 1984, which became effective April 1, 1985, authorized the board to use, on a reimbursable basis, the services and employees of NARA and other Federal agencies in carrying out its activities and to actively solicit donations to the fund. The Presidential Libraries Act of 1986 required that private endowments, linked to the size of the facilities, be available prior to creating a Presidential archival depository. The Archivist is required to establish in the Trust Fund separate endowments for each Presidential archival depository. The income from the investment of such endowments is used to offset a portion of the maintenance costs for the libraries.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Descriptosaurus Grammar Companion Ages 9 to 12 is a flexible grammar toolkit based on current research about effective strategies for teaching grammar tools and sentence construction (investigation, imitation, combining and expansion). It includes guidelines, exercises, scaffolds and models, and by showing a clear progression route to the acquisition and consolidation of increasingly more complex grammar tools it provides teachers and students with a road map that makes learning about sentence construction and revision visible. This book is a collection of connected resources that can be used as and when required and it provides an easily accessible differentiation resource for each student based on their current stage of development, not the age-related targets and expectations. It enables the learning process for grammar tools to be recursive rather than linear; to be regularly revisited in short bursts to consolidate students knowledge and usage, or to correct any misconceptions or problem areas without impeding any writing activities already planned. Chapters focus on four main points:InvestigationImitationCombiningExpansionThis Grammar Companion supports the main Descriptosaurus book and scaffolds students in their journey through the world of language. This essential resource will strengthen their language muscles and build confidence with sentence manipulation when revising their own texts, thus freeing their minds to think about the important issues of writing: content, audience and purpose, and organisation and structure.

The American Film Institute (AFI) was established in 1967 when President Lyndon B. Johnson enacted the National Foundation on the Arts and the Humanities Act. In April 2003, AFI re-opened the 1938 AFI Silver theatre in Silver Spring, Maryland The American Film Institute was founded in 1967 as a national arts organization to preserve the legacy of American film heritage, educate the next generation of filmmakers and honor the artists and their work. George Stevens, Jr., served as director from the institute's founding until 1980. In 1969, the institute established the Center for Advanced Film Studies. The first class included filmmakers Terrence Malick, David Lynch, Caleb Deschanel and Paul Schrader. That program grew into the AFI Conservatory, a fully accredited graduate film school. Jane Seymour Fonda (born December 21, 1937) is an American actress, writer, producer, political activist, fitness guru, and former fashion model.

Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. 1st Edition. Fine condition gray boards/black spine/silver spine lettering contained in a fine condition color photographic dust jacket. Includes Preface; About This Book; Glossary; Index and Acknowledgments. Profusely illustrated with color photographs, black-and-white photographs, and drawings, plus illustrated front and rear endpapers. Signed and inscribed by the Photographer/Designer/Editor, Robert B. Goodman, with thin black Sharpie/pen on the upper left corner of the blank verso page of the first free front illustrated endpaper. (see photographs). ".Author MacKinnon Simpson and photographer/editor/art director Robert B. Goodman spare the reader little in these pages. Through a richly informative juxtaposition of prose and picture, we experience the considerable dangers of hunting and harpooning the great whale, and we sense the grisly aftermath of cutting whale blubber into blanket pieces, horse pieces and bible leaves, to be rendered into oil. Here too, are the awed children accompanying their whaling captain fathers, and the young Hawaiians who signed on as crewmen for the money - a few cents a day. Whaling was not for the tender-hearted. Simpson's gutsy prose and Goodman's eye-riveting photographs and layouts show why a sensitive man like Herman Melville found the life so unromantic that he jumped ship not once, but twice, and yet was so possessed by his experiences that he spent the rest of his life writing about them. Happily, a little more than a century later, man's pursuit of whales for food and fashion products like lipstick and soap has steadily declined, down from the 32,000 kills in 1974 to less than a hundred in 1986. [The book] is a timely paen of remembrance for the gentle beings so mercilessly hunted down in the Pacific. It also is an ardent plea for a more loving and conservatory use of our world's fragile living resources, and a celebration that the killing has finally been stopped. The creators of this book believe it is not too late to take to heart a simpler precept of the original inhabitants of the Hawaiian Islands."Be content with your share." - excerpt from the inner front jacket flap. ABOUT ROBERT . GOODMAN: THE PHOTOGRAPHER / DESIGNER / EDITOR: Robert B. Goodman was born in Cincinnati, and first arrived in Hawai'i as a photo-journalist, then joined National Geographics staff, lived as an Aquanaut with Cousteau in the Red Sea, produced and photographed the landmark all-time best-selling books, The Australians and The Hawaiians, and co-founded Island Heritage, which published some eighty books on Island life. In 1985 Goodman co-published Within a Rainbowed Sea and Moloka'i, An Island in Time, the two most award-winning books in American publishing history. Invited by the Lahaina Whaling Museum to create this book, Goodman joined with his longtime friend MacKinnon Simpson in producing both the first major picture and word book ever published on fifty crucial years of Hawai'i's history, as well as the world's first coffee table book ever created with Apple Computer's Macintosh and LaserWriter desktop publishing system. Goodman lives in Hawai'i." - from the rear inner jacket flap. Goodman, Robert B. (Photographer, Designer, and Editor) (illustratore). Signed by Author(s).…
