The Garden State has made innumerable contributions to our nation's
military history, on both battlefield and homefront, but many of
those stories remain hidden within the larger national narrative.
Perhaps the most crucial one-day battle of the Revolution was
fought in Monmouth County, and New Jersey officers engineered the
conquest of California in the Mexican War. During the Civil War, a
New Jersey unit was instrumental in saving Washington, D.C., from
Confederate capture. In World War II, New Jersey women flocked to
war production factories and served in the armed forces, and a West
Orange girl helped ferry Spitfire fighters in England. War came
home to the coast in 1942 with the sinking of the SS "Resor" by a
German submarine, but the state's citizens reacted by contributing
everything they could to the war effort. Uncover these and other
stories from New Jersey's hidden wartime history.
Fifty concrete strategies to help school leaders create a learning
environment that better serves and supports students living with
trauma. Many educators have heard about the need to implement
"trauma-sensitive" practices in order to help students heal and
succeed. But what does this look like on a day-to-day basis? What
does it require of teachers and of those who lead them? In
Trauma-Sensitive School Leadership, Bill Ziegler, Dave Ramage,
Andrea Parson, and Justin Foster provide a framework to guide
administrators and their teams through the process. With reference
to research and their own experience as teachers, counselors, and
school leaders, the authors explain how to Develop empathetic and
supportive relationships among students and staff. Identify biases
and barriers that hinder educators' ability to support learners
affected by trauma. Design all-school events and daily lesson plans
to minimize the likelihood of retraumatizing vulnerable students.
Retool discipline practices and physical spaces to foster a more
trauma-sensitive culture and climate. Establish supports to help
teachers and other staff deal with secondary trauma. Accepting
students for who they are and responding compassionately to their
needs leads to greater success in academics and life. With 50
recommended strategies and real-life examples of trauma-informed
healing practices, Trauma-Sensitive School Leadership can help you
transform your school to better serve your students.
This innovative Research Handbook explores judicial, scholarly, and
theoretical approaches to general principles in the EU legal order
against the backdrop of considerable uncertainty about the concept.
It does so by analysing both a diverse range of general principles
in discrete areas of EU law ('zooming in') and external, wider
perspectives on the notion of a general principle of law from
international law, comparative law, and legal theory ('zooming
out'). Rather than arguing for a single closed definition of what a
general principle of law in the EU legal order must look like, this
Research Handbook identifies conceptual, theoretical, and legal
parameters within which the doctrine of general principles can be
meaningfully discussed and contested in EU law. The different
analytical layers built into this Research Handbook shed light on
whether general principles are defined by the different contexts in
which they apply; whether general principles are in practice
leading to more coherence between different areas of EU law; and
what challenges they create for the EU legal order. Chapters thus
contribute to a more refined methodological and doctrinal
understanding of general principles in the EU legal order. Opening
up new spaces to critically reflect on the concept, role,
significance, and limitations of general principles, the Research
Handbook on General Principles in EU Law will be a key resource for
scholars and students of European law, politics, and theory of
integration and internationalisation.

Coming of age adventure feature following the experiences of a
young woman who embarks on a journey of self-discovery when she
goes to stay with her grandmother for the summer holidays. Nicole
(Aimee Teegarden) is a quiet, slightly bookish teenager from New
York. Her grandmother, Sue (Patricia Richardson), lives a very
different life. As the owner of a California surf shop, she
presents a fresh environment for her granddaughter and encourages
her to try surfing herself. Nicole gradually begins to emerge from
her shell and even plans a road trip to Mexico, where the discovery
of a long-buried family secret shakes her world even more...
The important yet contradictory role of innovation in society calls
for a philosophy of innovation. Critically exploring innovation in
relation to values, the economy and social change, Rafael Ziegler
proposes a collaborative theory and practice of innovation that
aims to liberate possibilities for our common futures. Following
cues from the arts and drawing on the innovation literature across
the social sciences, this book exposes pro-innovation bias and the
gospel of disruptive change. Not only entrepreneurs but also civic
networks and tinkerers are discussed as sources of innovation, and
social change as a balancing act of innovation, exnovation and
restoration. The discussion of capabilitarian, communitarian,
liberal, republican and socialist ideas of justice and innovation
leads Ziegler to a transformative proposal: 'enough innovation'
based on enough for all and with respect for all. This is a
thought-provoking read for scholars working on
sustainability-transformation, democratic, responsible and social
innovation, and philosophy of economics.
