This book provides school administrators, school-based mental health professionals, and other educational professionals with the framework and tools needed to establish a comprehensive safe learning environment. The authors identify four necessary phases to achieve this (prevention, preparedness, response, and recovery) and provide numerous examples and tools to help readers create safe environments, while also addressing students’ academic, emotional, and social needs. An emphasis is placed on the importance of the balance between physical and psychological safety within a multi-tiered framework - it is not enough for students to know their school is secure; they must also feel they are safe and can turn to their teachers and school-based mental health professionals with their concerns. Aaccompanying downloadable resources contain several valuable resources, such as forms, handouts, articles, and monitoring tools.

Using data drawn primarily from the American Southwest, Stephen Plog shows that there are basic problems with the methods archaeologists traditionally use to classify and analyse prehistoric pottery. Archaeologists have studied the painted designs and other stylistic (that is, non-functional) characteristics on different types of prehistoric artifacts in order to infer information about prehistoric social organization and cultural change. Such studies usually argue that the degree of similarity between the designs found on ceramic vessels at different prehistoric sites were occupied or from the amount of interaction between the people who occupied them. In Stylistic Variation in Prehistoric Ceramics, the author proposes that many factors, rather than just two, cause design or stylistic variation on artifacts. He demonstrates flaws in the logic and method of previous studies and suggests that the ways in which designs have been classified and understood are often inappropriate. Employing archaeological information from the Chevelon Canyon area of east-central Arizona, he constructs his own proposal for a new analytic framework. Professor Plog's study provides a major contribution to archaeological method and theory and should be of interest to a broad range of archaeologists.

Rochester Adolescent Medicine has a long history as one of the earliest programs in the country. Spanning over six decades, the program has grown from a weekly ambulatory session to a fully functioning division of the Department of Pediatrics with an array of complex clinical, research, educational, and community programs of national/international significance. Interviews with over thirty former and present University residents, fellows, and faculty members in Adolescent Medicine showcase these practitioners' extraordinary passion and dedication for caring for adolescents and their families. Faculty and former fellows from Rochester Adolescent Medicine have been leaders at the forefront of almost every major decision about the field of Adolescent Medicine since its inception. Adolescent Medicine has never been more critical than it is now, and the field continues its dedication to equity, diversity, and integrity in all programs. This book celebrates Rochester's six-decade contributions to optimum health for adolescents and their families; the partnership with the University of Rochester and the Rochester community; and the training of future generations of leaders in Adolescent Medicine.

I ett avsides hörn av den polska landsbygden, nära den tjeckiska gränsen, lever Janina Duszejko, en gång broingenjör och lärarinna. Nu ägnar hon sin tid åt att se om grannarnas vintertomma hus, att tillsammans med rådjur och vildsvin ströva genom markerna, att översätta Blake – och att ställa horoskop. Så påträffas en av de bofasta grannarna död, och plötsligt är det excentrikern Janina som befinner sig i händelsernas centrum. Det som för myndigheterna ter sig oförklarligt bildar under hennes tränade blick ett tydligt mönster. Det enda hon behöver göra är att lära sin omgivning att läsa spåren rätt.

En skvätt om Arjeplog heter en ny bok av frilansjournalisten Marianne Hofman. Arjeplog är Sveriges vattenrikaste kommun och där ligger också Sveriges djupaste insjö Hornavan, med ett största djup på 221 meter. Marianne Hofman bor i Arjeplog och ger bland annat ut nättidningen Arjeplognytt. Tillsammans med fotografen Erland Segerstedt från Skellefteå har hon skrivit boken En skvätt om Arjeplog, som handlar om vatten i alla dess former och funktioner. ”Vatten ger oss liv och möjligheter, men kan också ta liv och i ett svep spola bort de möjligheter som vi så lätt tar för givna. Vattnet rör på sig, förändras och speglar både livet och oss människor i sitt flöde. Ibland är vågrörelserna snabba och oförutsägbara, ibland är de långsamma och nästan omärkbara, men energin finns där, hela tiden. Det väcker känslor, och bär med sig en ursprunglig kraft som vi inte alltid kan hejda eller kontrollera. Allt vatten i hela världen hänger ihop. Från de minsta bäckar till de största havsströmmar i världshaven. Under arbetet med denna bok har vattnets kraft, betydelse och inverkan på våra liv framträtt tydligt. Arjeplog är Sveriges vattenrikaste kommun och så länge människor har funnits här har vattnet på många olika sätt haft en avgörande betydelse för överlevnad och utveckling. De äldsta funna spåren av människor i Arjeplog är tiotusen år gamla. Landskapet och människors liv var ett helt annat än det vi har idag, men behovet av vatten och viljan att leva nära vattnet var och är densamma. Med vår bok vill vi lyfta fram några berättelser om vattnet i Arjeplog.” (Från efterordet) https://midsommarudden.blogspot.com/2017/07/ny-bok-en-skvatt-om-arjeplog.html
