In an interview, he will talk about how this topic relates to those that are disabled today.

He can also discuss the changing social circumstances of the late 19th and early 20th centuries and how that impacted the veterans. Wounded for Life is equal parts Civil War history, disability history and the history of the body. The collective experiences of the veterans profiled in the book show how they dealt with common expectations of manhood or masculine identity after the injuries.

Dr. Hicks will share insight into this era of history through humanizing the intimate lives of disabled veterans.

Carly Cargill, an energetic young reporter for a major New York Newspaper, tries to find her ground of being as she navigates the perilous streets of the City in the late 1980’s. She is also caught in the maelstrom of the often dangerous choices of the men in her life. The playwright, Eileen Benson, has created a noir throwback reminiscent of vintage films such as “Rebecca,” and “The Philadelphia Story,” with snappy dialogue and well-drawn characters. It won acclaim at its debut performance at the New York New Works Theatre Festival in October.

And worthy of Broadcast Coverage???

A wedding hopefully should be a once only occasion and can be expressed in so many ways with many different budgets.

We thought to introduce you to an impromptu wedding with a very limited budget. This story is a Romantic Comedy ready for Prime Time presented on June 21st. You are all invited…….Here are some of the unique interesting attributes;

* The Wedding Ceremony on June 21st @ 10:00 AM will be performed in one of the oldest Chapels in Philadelphia.

* The Bride & Groom will not enter to “Here comes the Bride” but will dance down the Bridal Path in Fairmount Park at Valley Green in jeans to the Doo Wop favorite “Today I meet the boy I’m going to marry” by Darlene Love

* The Wedding will bridge many generations embracing Ageless Love. The Groom, Zeal Greenberg will be celebrating his 75th Birthday….The Bride will be celebrating her 34th Birthday. True Love knows no time or space…it is about living in the now moment.

* The Party will also Celebrate Fay Greenberg…Zeal’s Mom’s 99th Summer bringing together her large family with 13 Great Grand Children. Fay will be the Center Piece of the Party.

* The Reception Party begins at 4:00PM and is in the gym of Crefeld High School in Chestnut Hill with decorating the Pink “Room for Romance”. Crefeld began over 45 years ago originally Miquon School founded by Arnold Greenberg Founder and Head Master and Zeal’s brother. With very significant and profound meaning for the Greenberg Family.

* The evening will also bridge generations with romantic eclectic music. “The Pot Luck Shared Happiness Happening” with eclectic food from the eclectic guest will further demonstrate a unique and creative way to have a warm & wonderful event on a very small budget.

*The news worthiness comes from the human interest aspect of how to “Celebrate Life” and the beauty of our creativity.

The above points make for an interesting cool story. I wake up each morning saying to myself today I may meet my next best friend.

One September morning we met not On-Line but On-the- Train Line at 4:44 with me going to my NYC office to arrive by 7:00 AM. This one September morning two attractive women get on my empty train car and with a quick glance we began our romance.

June & Angela were playing hooky from work with tickets to go to the Dr. Oz show. Serendipity & Synchronicity have brought us together to bond in our impromptu low/no budget nontraditional marriage. What Inspirational Fun…A great romantic comedy ready for prime time opening on June 21st …the first day of a very special 2014 summer.

They were included in “Times of War – Signs of Peace,” an exhibition held in New York in 2003 showcasing the visual voice of peace marchers. More recently, starting in December 2011, the PEACE PLEASE designed and produced Peace Symbol Lights were featured in the “Light but not Light” installation, a collaboration between PEACE PLEASE and 0.00156 acres Gallery in New York.

PEACE PLEASE contributes monies from sales to groups that promote peace and coexistence, some of which you’ll find listed on the links page. Funds are additionally being used for the creation of an international peace channel. To direct the donation from your purchase specifically to one of the organizations listed, send us a separate email stating your wish and we will contribute the monies accordingly. On the message side we have a Gallery, presently featuring “People for Peace.” Our parent, The Peace Channel Network, Inc., also runs “Voices for Peace,” an area for anyone to leave messages about peace and coexistence and share ideas as to how we can best bring these ideals about. Add your voice – together we can make a difference.

8TH GRADERS AT ELVERSON’S TWIN VALLEY MIDDLE SCHOOL TO MEET “HER”

About 80 eighth-grade students at the Twin Valley Middle School, 770 Clymer Hill Road in Elverson, Chester County, have been talking and studying about her beauty, performance and European flair for several months.

Four teachers at Twin Valley, Rachel Smith, Jon Regino, Donna Kertis and Jennifer George, have been incorporating her unique qualities into their language arts, algebra and science classes as the focus of their studies and curriculum programs.

On May 4, they’ll finally get to see her in person when she comes to the school to meet her admirers. The boys and girls will greet the subject of their studies – the all-new, $229,000 (base price) McLaren MP4-12C supercar, the retail automobile that was designed using knowledge and technological breakthroughs gained from nearly five decades of McLaren participation in Formula One racing.

“This project started because of a fundamental belief that I hold that education must be real, relevant and rigorous. Once I told the youngsters that I saw the MP4-12C, I realized how easy it would be to teach using the car as a curricular guide,” said Smith, a language arts teacher, who has been using the McLaren as a topic in her class work since February. “While many of the students love cars and know much about them, none have ever seen a McLaren, and they’re very excited to experience it in person.

“In science class, the students talked about the scientific method and its relationship to the company’s design of this perfect car; in math class, they’ve discussed the drag speed coefficient and perfect mathematical equations the car must offer; and in language arts, they’ve read and written persuasively, informatively and in narrative about this innovative automobile. They’ve been learning and now they’ll get a chance to meet the supercar that inspired it all,” “Smith said.

The excitement will start at Twin Valley Middle School when Chad Sierer, Sales Manager of McLaren Philadelphia, 1631 West Chester Pike, West Chester, one of only nine McLaren dealerships in the United States, drives up to the school on May 4. Sierer’s arrival will be signaled by the distinctive growl of the MP4-12C’s 3.8-liter, V8 twin turbo engine that produces 592 horsepower and 445 lb-ft. of torque at 3,000 rpm.

“We are extremely pleased that our extraordinary automobile was selected to be a learning tool for the young people at Twin Valley Middle School,” said Robert DiStanislao, President of McLaren Philadelphia. “I applaud the teachers at Twin Valley for their creative lesson planning techniques that make learning fun and relevant for their students. I look forward to seeing what their study project has produced.”
