Learn How to Navigate Through the Grief Journey with New Xulon Title

Maitland, FL (PRWEB) November 13, 2011

Understanding the true nature of grief can often lighten the burden of it. At its core, grief is the continued expression of love for the person who has died. When this insight is grasped by the mourner, they can have the hope that there is still purpose in their life after the loss. The mourner can also have the promise that they will have the resources available to make it through the grief journey. Love Never Dies ($ 15.99, paperback, 978-1-61379-600-9; $ 25.99, hardcover, 978-1-61379-601-6; $ 7.99, eBook, 978-1-61379-964-2), a new Xulon Press title from author Larry Barber, LPC-S, CT, breaks with the majority of grief and self-help books that call upon mourners to navigate phases, levels, or tasks of grief in order to overcome it. This book shares with mourners the idea that grief is another expression of love, which allows them to continue a healthy, healing relationship with the deceased.

?Grief is the natural response to the loss of a loved one,? the author says. ?Grief is not abnormal. Grief is not an illness to be cured or recovered from, a disorder to be diagnosed and treated, a problem to be corrected, or a sin that demands repentance. Grief has its own timetable which cannot be changed by the mourner or those around them.?

Barber, a widowed single father of two children, says that walking the grief journey was what inspired him to write this book. Ever since his first prayers to God for help and support in his grief, he says God has sent grief messengers into his life and has been shaping him into a mourner who is armed to help himself and other mourners through grief. Barber?who is also the director of GriefWorks, a children?s grief support service?hopes that the insights in this book will be a resource of support and encouragement for everyone mourning the death of someone they love.

Xulon Press, a division of Salem Communications, is the world?s largest Christian publisher, with more than 8,000 titles published to date. Retailers may order Love Never Dies through Ingram Book Company and/or Spring Arbor Book Distributors. The book is available online through xulonpress.com/bookstore, amazon.com, and barnesandnoble.com.

Understand the concept of the travel and tourism sector

Tourism is travel for recreational, leisure or business purposes. The World Tourism Organization defines tourists as people who “travel to and stay in places outside their usual environment for more than twenty-four (24) hours and not more than one consecutive year for leisure, business and other purposes not related to the exercise of an activity remunerated from within the place visited.”[1] Tourism has become a popular global leisure activity. In 2008, there were over 922 million international tourist arrivals, with a growth of 1.9% as compared to 2007. International tourism receipts grew to US4 billion (euro 642 billion) in 2008, corresponding to an increase in real terms of 1.8%.[2] As a result of the late-2000s recession, international travel demand suffered a strong slowdown beginning in June 2008, with growth in international tourism arrivals worldwide falling to 2% during the boreal summer months.

Thanks to the terrorist who tried to blow up Noethwest-Delta Flight 253 in Detroit on Christmas Day, air travel will become even more hellish than it already is. But what choice do we have? Everyone knows we also have to be on the lookout for those awful Christian and Jewish terrorists. Limiting our observation and searches to Muslims would be profiling and we can’t have that, can we?

WestBow Press, the strategic self-publishing division of the world?s largest Christian publisher, Thomas Nelson, Inc., today released a powerful video interview with children?s book author and illustrator Mitzi Doster. Her book, ?The Lizard in the Laundry,? was published as a collaborative effort by WestBow Press and the Granting Dreams Foundation to ensure her story and message was captured for children to cherish.

In the interview, Doster discusses her very personal fight with breast cancer and the urgency she felt to turn ?The Lizard in the Laundry? from idea to published book. The touching video is available here:

Her desire to leave a literary legacy that will continue to help and encourage others was fulfilled when the Granting Dreams Foundation teamed up with Thomas Nelson to publish her book.

Application Deadline Nears for Oregon College?s Doctor of Physical Therapy Program


Newberg, Ore. (PRWEB) October 22, 2011

Prospective students interested in applying to Oregon?s newest doctor of physical therapy (DPT) program have just over a month to do so, as the application deadline for George Fox University?s first DPT class is Thursday, Dec. 1.

The program will begin hosting classes in the fall of 2012. With the addition, George Fox is one of only two schools in the state to offer a doctor of physical therapy degree. Only three schools in Washington and one in Idaho offer physical therapy, and there are no programs in California north of Sacramento.

An information meeting on George Fox?s program is scheduled for 7 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 25, in Room 155 of the university?s Portland Center, 12753 S.W. 68th Ave., in Portland. The event will allow potential students to meet the program?s director, Tyler Cuddeford, and learn about program distinctives, the admissions process and financial aid.

Those interested in attending can R.S.V.P. to Patrick Kelley, the program?s admissions counselor, at 503-554-2223.

The university will host on-campus interviews with candidates in February of 2012 and will announce admissions decisions in the spring of 2012. Classes will begin in August of next year with 32 students. To apply, visit apply.georgefox.edu.

Demand for physical therapists is expected to increase in the next six years, according to the Occupational Outlook Handbook, a document created every two years by the U.S. Department of Labor. According to the 2010-11 Handbook, employment of physical therapists is expected to grow 30 percent between 2008 and 2018. The report concluded that job opportunities will be most promising in the acute hospital, rehabilitation and orthopedic settings.

Physical therapy programs are typically three years in length and include more than 100 semester hours in classes that cover anatomy, neuroscience, clinical kinesiology, clinical reasoning, applied physiology, healthcare management, and evaluation techniques for cardiopulmonary, musculoskeletal, pediatric, geriatric and neurological diseases and disorders. By graduation, students have spent 36 weeks in full-time clinical internships.

George Fox will house its physical therapy program in the Villa Academic Complex on the school?s Newberg, Ore., campus. The school purchased the facility from Providence Newberg Hospital in 2006 and has since converted it into space to accommodate its doctor of physical therapy, doctor of psychology and School of Education programs.

To learn more about George Fox?s physical therapy program, visit dpt.georgefox.edu. For admissions information, contact Kelly at 503-554-2223.

George Fox University is ranked by Forbes among the top Christian colleges in the country. George Fox is the only Christian university in the Pacific Northwest classified by U.S. News & World Report as a first tier national university. More than 3,400 students attend classes on the university?s campus in Newberg, Ore., and at teaching centers in Portland, Salem, and Redmond, Ore., and Boise, Idaho. George Fox offers bachelor?s degrees in more than 40 majors, degree-completion programs for working adults, five seminary degrees, and 11 master?s and doctoral degrees.
