damage before anyone discovers what has happened. Ultimately Branan
and his sister decide that together they'll draw too much attention
to themselves, so they depart promising to see each other again.

but he has no idea why. In hopes of understanding God's plan, he
travels back to Israel to trace the deeds of the father he never
knew-and finds himself in the crosshairs of a Philistine captain in
the process. Growing up among the Philistines, Branan was always

feared. Desperate to understand why God gave him his father's
gifts, Bran travels to Israel ... and discovers the Philistines are
still terrorizing the people. While traveling to the cities where

The purpose of this handbook is to help launch institutional
transformations in mathematics departments to improve student
success. We report findings from the Student Engagement in
Mathematics through an Institutional Network for Active Learning
(SEMINAL) study. SEMINAL's purpose is to help change agents, those
looking to (or currently attempting to) enact change within
mathematics departments and beyond--trying to reform the
instruction of their lower division mathematics courses in order to
promote high achievement for all students. SEMINAL specifically
studies the change mechanisms that allow postsecondary institutions
to incorporate and sustain active learning in Precalculus to
Calculus 2 learning environments. Out of the approximately 2.5
million students enrolled in collegiate mathematics courses each
year, over 90% are enrolled in Precalculus to Calculus 2 courses.
Forty-four percent of mathematics departments think active learning
mathematics strategies are important for Precalculus to Calculus 2
courses, but only 15percnt; state that they are very successful at
implementing them. Therefore, insights into the following research
question will help with institutional transformations: What
conditions, strategies, interventions and actions at the
departmental and classroom levels contribute to the initiation,
implementation, and institutional sustainability of active learning
in the undergraduate calculus sequence (Precalculus to Calculus 2)
across varied institutions? This book is published in cooperation
with CBMS.
This book provides an overview of a body of work conducted over the
past seven years related to the preparation of secondary
mathematics teachers by the Mathematics Teacher Education
Partnership (MTE-Partnership), a national consortium of more than
90 universities and 100 school systems. The MTE-Partnership is
organized as a Networked Improvement Community (NIC), which
combines the disciplined inquiry of improvement science with the
power of networking to accelerate improvement by engaging a broad
set of participants. The MTE-Partnership is addressing key
challenges in secondary mathematics teacher preparation, including:
Supporting the development of content knowledge relevant to
teaching secondary mathematics; Providing effective clinical
experiences to teacher candidates; Recruiting secondary mathematics
teacher candidates, ensuring program completion and their
subsequent retention in the field as early career teachers;
Supporting overall transformation of secondary mathematics teacher
preparation in alignment with these challenges; Ensuring a focus on
equity and social justice in secondary mathematics teacher
recruitment, preparation, and induction. This book outlines
existing knowledge related to each of these key challenges, as well
as the work of Research Action Clusters (RACs) formed to address
the challenges. Each RAC includes participants from multiple
institutions who work collaboratively to iteratively develop, test,
and refine processes and products that can help programs more
effectively prepare secondary mathematics teacher candidates. The
book describes promising approaches to improving aspects of
secondary mathematics teacher preparation developed by the RACs,
including specific products that have been developed, which will
inform the work of others involved in secondary mathematics teacher
preparation. In addition, reflections on the use of the NIC model
provides insights for others considering this research design.
Particularreferences to the Standards for Preparing Teachers of
Mathematics (Association of Mathematics Teacher Educators, 2017)
are included throughout the book.

make a difference in this world. Their goals range from providing
safe drinking water to under-developed countries to ending body
image issues. They opine on how their lives may unfold based on the
actions they take today and the direction they head tomorow. This
book is a microcosm of what young adults in the United States are
aspiring to be. Best-selling authors and co-founders of We
Published That, L.L.C., Gary Martin Hays and Adam Weart, have
worked diligently with these students to bring this book to life.
All proceeds from the sale of this book will go towards the core

Natural spirituality asserts a viewpoint guided by reason. Human
nature and nature are the only texts. Many of us were raised with
Hell as a fact. The religious leaders proclaimed, "God loves you;
but, if you do not love him, he will torment you for eternity in a
fiery bottomless pit." Fear of damnation ruled our lives. Salvation
for most of us was seen as a way of avoiding this terrible fate. We
worried that a non-belief in Hell might alienate us from our family
and God. At some point, we began to doubt religous rituals and
doctrines. Hell and love became an obvious dichotomy. The content
of this book reflects a worldview. Historical events discussed are
based on common knowledge. We are endowed with a natural
spirituality demonstrated by compassionate empathy for our fellow
human beings. Our task is to not allow outside forces conceal our
natural spirituality. The Greek Logos(loh-gohs) is defined as the
perceived wisdom evident in nature. We are all part of the Logos.
The primitive concept of one group being chosen by a deity over all
other groups has been destructive.
Kingsley's gay and lives in a circle of mostly gay friends. I hold
him in awe. I'm bisexual; at least, that's what I say when asked.
Kingsley has invited me to join his gay world, one with which I
believe I'm slowly coming to terms. Kingsley's my first and only
man-love, and I hope to be his forever. Of course, that was before
he flew off to spend a couple of days with family in New York City,
and left me behind. What does it take for a gay man and his
hesitantly bi-sexual lover to grow from being the best of
sex-buddies to committed partners? Enter Larry and Richard, the gay
artistic duo, my teachers and chaperones in Kingsley's absence. And
Millie, the youthful, rich, all-accommodating siren, willing to
forgive anyone's past transgressions for even the remotest
possibility of a future together. And Stanley, the aristocratic
male-hunk, sporting a not-so-hidden cult tattoo, with a seething
caldron of more-than-friendly feelings underneath his disdainful
exterior. And not to forget Rebecca, Kingsley's obtuse childhood
"friend," a modern witch aggressively seeking the warlock she needs
to make her whole. No one ever forgets Rebecca... The long-awaited
third book in the Kingsley & I series by Gary Martine.

Accident Cases: IF YOU'VE BEEN HURT IN A CAR WRECK, WILL YOU KNOW
HOW TO TAKE ON THE INSURANCE COMPANY AND THEIR LAWYERS BY YOURSELF?
Think about that for a moment . . . You've been hurt in a car wreck
and it was not your fault. And now you have a lot of questions, but
not a lot of answers: * who will pay for all of your medical bills?
* you don't have health insurance, so how do you get the medical
treatment you need for your injuries? * how can you recover your
lost wages? * who will pay for your car to be repaired? * what if
your car can't be repaired and is declared a total loss? * what if
you owe more than the car is worth? * what about your future
medical needs or lost wages? * what are the 3 things you must prove
to be able to recover in your personal injury claim? This is a lot
for anyone to handle - all of the phone calls back and forth, the
emails, the paperwork, the releases. Will you have the time or the
knowledge to handle this by yourself? Do you need a guide for
consumers to help explain the process to you? And ask yourself - do
you really want to take on the insurance company and their lawyers
- especially without educating yourself on the claims process here
in Georgia? Are you an attorney who is looking to expand your

The Insurance Company What Your Case Is Worth * Liens And
Subrogation Claims: Who Will Claim They Are Entitled To Some (Or
Maybe ALL Of Your Settlement) * Legal Deadlines * Litigation: Do
You File Suit On Your Case? The book also contains a presentation
that Mr. Hays gave to other attorneys at a continuing education
seminar for lawyers regarding diminished value claims in Georgia -
a secret that is literally saving the insurance industry millions
of dollars each year - money that should be going to Georgia's
consumers. In addition, FREE bonus chapters from three (3) of his
previous books that he co-authored are included: * "3 Secrets The
Insurance Company Doesn't Want You To Know About Your Personal
Injury Claim" * "The Mourning After: Helping Families Cope After A
