Most financial planning decisions faced by families are the result of family life stages-entering into a committed relationship; having and caring for children; working; taking care of parents; securing retirement funds; and distributing wealth at the end of life. All of these family life stages require planning, budgeting and, more importantly, communicating in order to reach these financial goals. Exploring the vital relationship between communication and financial planning, Communicating Finances in the Family: Talking and Taking Action helps students move from seeing money as a "problem" to viewing money as the "path" to achieving their financial goals. Readers learn about the role of money within a family, the emotional controversy it can create, the importance of honest communication in financial planning, and how to develop a family financial mission statement, set financial goals, and develop a budget. Included are case studies that demonstrate communication strategies in action and self-check questions to help students consider their own experiences and plans. Communicating Finances in the Family is an ideal supplementary text for courses in interpersonal communication, family communication, group communication, community, finance, economics, and family studies.

The America we know and love is in danger as never before in its history. The Land of George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, and the uniquely great American Constitution is under deadly attack. It has already been distorted and heavily damaged. America is being assaulted from within and without by forces of atheism, legalized immorality, socialism, communism, and Islam. Some of these forces go by the deceptive names of "progressives," "social democrats," "leftists," as well as socialism, communism, and atheism, but they have their basis in vile hatred of America, and they work assiduously to malign and defame our country, and overthrow it. Their method is constant lying and deception in every form imaginable. We witness preposterous lies every day from these individuals and groups in their quest to defame America, conservatism, Republicans, and any individual or group that opposes them. They have as their goal the revolutionary overthrow of America, and its replacement by socialism, communism, or Islam and Sharia law. All of these forces have a long historical record of inhuman cruelty, genocide, and democide. The destructive revolutionary activities of the 1960s opened up these avenues of attack, and they have increasingly evolved and been institutionalized since the 1970s and 80s. They run throughout our educational institutions, the courts, the media, entertainment, and have even infiltrated our government. Our universities have been corrupted and politicized by them. Many professors who teach our young people today are avowed Marxists, socialists, and communists. Many of these professors are also radical feminists who are atheists, Marxists, communists, and lesbians. They also express great hatred for America, and seek to radically change it to some form of Marxism, socialism, or communism. The ACLU, an atheist and communist organization from its start in 1920, is now a highly financed organization that actually seeks to legally overthrow Constitutional American liberties, and promote a totally different world of anarchic, atheistic freedom, divorced from God and moral law, and which will be intolerant of anything else. America began as a Christian democratic nation, with Presidents who stood staunchly for liberty under God, Christianity, the Bible, and freedom of worship. They warned us against the results of immorality-tyranny, despotism, corruption, and decline. Constitutional liberties have already been largely swept away by a Supreme Court that now places atheistic autonomy above everything else-above God, the Bible, morality, our country, our flag, marriage, and the family. The current President has even declared that we are no longer a Christian nation. This book not only seeks to describe these corrupting developments, but to suggest how and why they have risen to dominance.

This edited volume addresses a rising concern among natural resource scientists and management professionals about decline of the many plant and animal species associated with early-successional habitats, especially within the Central Hardwood Region of the USA. These open habitats, with herbaceous, shrub, or young forest cover, are disappearing as abandoned farmland, pastures, and cleared forest patches return to forest. There are many questions about "why, what, where, and how" to manage for early successional habitats. In this book, expert scientists and experienced land managers synthesize knowledge and original scientific work to address questions on such topics as wildlife, water, carbon sequestration, natural versus managed disturbance, future scenarios, and sustainable creation and management of early successional habitat in a landscape context.

The first book-length study of the career of the director of such classic films as "The Day the Earth Stood Still," "West Side Story," and "The Sound of Music," this volume combines thorough cast and crew credits, critical responses, awards and nominations, production notes, and comments from the director himself resulting in a unique overview of a remarkable career. In addition, a complete annotated bibliography of all books, articles, and interviews by or about Wise is included. An interesting feature is the examination of many of his unproduced projects.

Wise's career began with RKO as an editor for such films as" Citizen Kane" (1941) and "The Magnificent Ambersons" (1942), when he then stepped in for director Gunther von Fritsch to complete "Curse of the Cat People" (1944). At 20th-Century Fox, Wise directed "The Day the Earth Stood Still" (1951), "Somebody Up There Likes Me" (1956), and "Run Silent, Run DeeP" (1958). "West Side Story" (1961), which Wise codirected with choreographer Jerome Robbins, marked the beginning of the third phase of his career, a period marked by mammoth productions that met with overwhelming approval commercially and critically. "West Side Story The Sound of Music" (1965), one of the highest grossing films in history, though Wise considers "The Haunting" (1963) his best film. Though Wise's films since 1965 have rarely been box-office successes, he has done intriguing and varied work such as "The Andromeda Strain" (1971), "The Hindenburg" (1975), and "Audrey Rose (1977).

Every baby boomer in America knows who that masked man was. He was mysterious and mythic at the same time, the epitome of the American hero: compassionate, honest, patriotic, inventive, an unswerving champion of justice and fair play.
