<p class="releaseDateline">Santa Barbara, Calif. (PRWEB) September 20, 2007 </p>
<p> Educators can bring the triumph and tragedy of World War II into the classroom with today&#8217;s launch of &#8220;History and the Headlines: Double Victory &#8211; Minorities and Women During World War II.&#8221; Designed to support the Ken Burns and Lynn Novick PBS/WETA World War II documentary, &#8220;The War,&#8221; this free collection of authoritative and engaging multimedia content will help students examine the role of minorities and women during World War II and place their stories within the larger context of the war. In partnership with Burns and Novick, PBS/WETA and National History Day, ABC-CLIO developed this collection as part of &#8220;History and the Headlines,&#8221; a series of free online history resources. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>&#8220;History and the Headlines: Double Victory &#8211; Minorities and Women During World War II&#8221; includes video excerpts from the documentary, access to ABC-CLIO&#8217;s award-winning five-volume encyclopedia of World War II, thought-provoking essays on the tragedies and triumphs of the war and complementary lesson plans from National History Day. The free collection will be available until Dec. 31, 2007.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>&#8220;By combining our high-quality history content with resources from prestigious history organizations and historians, ABC-CLIO is able to offer this rich collection of content, video, analysis, primary sources and curriculum materials that will allow educators to integrate the landmark documentary into history instruction,&#8221; said Becky Snyder, president, ABC-CLIO. &#8220;When historians use these resources in the classroom, they will help students to think critically about the events of World War II, place them in context and see how they are relevant to their own lives.&#8221; </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The site&#8217;s four video excerpts from &#8220;The War&#8221; give students a unique firsthand glimpse into the lives of everyday Americans during this tumultuous time. &#8220;Connecting to World War II&#8221; gives students an overview of the production of &#8220;The War&#8221; and its mission of portraying both the triumph and tragedy of World War II. &#8220;Munitions Factories&#8221; shows how men and women on the home front in the United States helped in the war effort. &#8220;Mobile Shipyards&#8221; provides insight into the shipyards of Mobile, Ala., where African Americans found work opportunities that led to an increase in racial tensions, riots and segregation. &#8220;Made Into Any Enemy&#8221; highlights the tragedy of the internment of Japanese Americans. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>In the &#8220;Need to Know&#8221; section, &#8220;History and the Headlines: World War II&#8221; takes students deeper into the global context of the war by giving them access to ABC-CLIO&#8217;s five-volume &#8220;Encyclopedia of World War II: A Political, Social and Military History.&#8221; Edited by Spencer C. Tucker, Ph.D., and Priscilla Mary Roberts, Ph.D., this comprehensive history includes an overview, detailed chronology, essays explaining the origins and legacy of the war and numerous primary sources for gaining insight into the people, places and events of World War II.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The site&#8217;s &#8220;Point of View&#8221; section includes three thought-provoking essays by leading historians on the experiences of minorities and women during World War II, both in the United States and overseas. The first essay offers an overview of life on the home front for women, African Americans and Japanese Americans. The second essay focuses on the Japanese American troops of the 442nd Regimental Combat Team and includes testimony from the men that offers insight into their conflicting emotions over fighting for a country that was imprisoning their family members. The final essay focuses on the experiences of women in the military during World War II.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>&#8220;The documentary, &#8216;The War,&#8217; will serve as the catalyst for many discussions both in and out of the classroom,&#8221; said David Silbey, Ph.D., author of the essay of Japanese Americans in the military and an associate professor at Alvernia College in Reading, Pa. &#8220;The essays on what it was like to be a minority during that pivotal time in world history and the other resources available from ABC-CLIO&#8217;s &#8216;History and the Headlines&#8217; will give teachers a way to guide students in those conversations so that they become meaningful examinations of historical context.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>All of the resources in &#8220;History and the Headlines: World War II&#8221; can be used to support its accompanying collection of five lesson plans developed by National History Day. Each lesson plan presents topics and activities for teachers to use with their students when studying World War II and asks students to make connections between the historical period and their own lives. Topics include researching family stories as oral histories, women in the workplace, women serving in the military, progress toward equal work opportunities for African Americans and legal battles of interned Japanese Americans. Each lesson plan includes a connection to a specific episode of &#8220;The War,&#8221; relevance to the 2008 National History Day theme, &#8220;Conflict and Compromise,&#8221; background information, primary sources and classroom activities.</p>

<p class="releaseDateline"> (PRWEB) November 15, 2010 </p>
<p> GenealogyInTime™, a free online genealogy magazine, has launched a major new genealogy search engine.  Called the Advanced Genealogy Search Engine, it is a stronger and more powerful alternative to traditional searches using Google. The Advanced Genealogy Search Engine not only searches over 1.2 billion historic source records, it is fast, convenient and free. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Genealogy continues to be a large and growing hobby for millions of people. Our magazine readers have told us how they don’t like to pay for services to find genealogy records that are already available for free online.  And traditional search engines like Google produce too many unrelated links. We have responded with a dedicated genealogy search engine designed to search over 1.2 billion free historic source records. Our team of developers worked on this product for over 15 months. The Advanced Genealogy Search Engine will help you find your ancestors faster and more conveniently than other search engines. And, of course, it is free.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Although the Advanced Genealogy Search Engine is still in beta form, it has already been successfully tested by thousands of genealogy users.  Many have found new undiscovered records of their ancestors using this search engine. This is because the Advanced Genealogy Search Engine was built by genealogists for genealogists.  We encourage you to try it today.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Other recent enhancements made to the online GenealogyInTime™ magazine include:  &#13;<br />
</p>
<p>     The most comprehensive list of the newest genealogy record sets as they become available on the internet. &#13;<br />
     There are now over 40 in-depth genealogy articles including guides on how to overcome genealogy brickwalls.&#13;<br />
     A rare book search engine that searches over 80 million out-of-print books from used bookstores around the world.&#13;<br />
     Over 500 free genealogy wallpaper images for your monitor.&#13;<br />
     The popular Genealogy This Week column, a short compilation of the best and most interesting new tools, resources and stories on the internet to help you get the most out of your family history research.&#13;<br />
     Other free tools and resources to help you find your ancestors.
<p>GenealogyInTime™ also offers a free weekly email newsletter. Readers are encouraged to sign up for the newsletter to help them stay on top of the latest news and trends in genealogy.</p>

<p>Family Trees, Genealogy Take Root at TreeX.com, Newly Launched Web Site  &#13;<br />

<p class="releaseDateline">Arlington, VA (PRWEB) September 25, 2007 </p>
<p> Keeping track of family history and genealogy has never been easier. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Announcing the launch of TreeX.com, a new Web site where relatives, friends or professional genealogists can work together or alone to help grow their family trees. Through this innovative Web-based building interface they easily construct family trees, keep track of family ancestry and post photographs and historical text. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The owner of the family tree can invite as many people as he wants to assist him in this effort. Trees are grown by inputting data directly to the site or by accessing computer files saved in the required GEDCOM format. Other information, photos and videos can also be inserted into the tree generically or for each member, improving quality and scope of the tree. Furthermore, a family tree can be kept confidential, set to public view or set to allow specified persons or relatives to access it &#8212; and forums and user message boards have also been made available to make the exchange of information easier.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>This means that the TreeX.com site can be used all over the world and, toward this end, translations are being made in several languages to create the most pleasing environment for visually appreciating family trees online as well as for data research in the field of Genealogy.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The site offers a choice between utilizing a free version of the service and a paid premium mode that provides additional options. Even choosing the free mode, the family tree can carry on being built without any limit of the number of members involved. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>About TreeX.com and its founder:&#13;<br />
<br />TreeX.com launched on Sept. 17. Henrique Morize had the idea of creating a Web site to keep track of family ancestry three years ago when he decided to document his own family online. As the founder of TreeX.com he now hopes to bring genealogy and family heritage back to the lives of people around the world. His new site, TreeX.com allows those who sign up to create a family tree online and update it indefinitely by adding photos, date and videos or altering text and images. It also allows them to conduct searches of other family trees and utilize message boards to keep in touch with relatives and friends. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Morize developed the Web site, he said, with the help of Guilherme de Souza, a business partner he has been associated with since 1990 when they assembled and sold PCs together. Subsequently, in 1995, they turned their attention to the Internet, building Openlink, a company that turned to be the biggest access provider in Rio de Janeiro, where they were born and still live. In 1999 they sold Openlink to PSINET, an American company, and started up iKids, an online site that sells children&#8217;s products. A few years later they sold iKids. Utilizing this accumulated Internet business background, they have since gone on to create MyFlog (http://www.MyFlog.com.br), a site that continues to operate to this day, and TreeX.com.</p>

<p>Ethical Wills &#8211; A New Way to Preserve Family Values &amp; Family History&#13;<br />

        &#13;</p>
<p class="releaseDateline">Plymouth, MI (PRWEB) August 31, 2004 </p>
<p> If you are looking for gift to give your family that will live on for generations then consider giving an ethical will to your loved ones. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Because families spend less time talking and sharing stories than did earlier generations, oral histories are endangered and today&#8217;s children will know far less about their families than their parents do.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>&#8220;We are all just one generation away from not knowing anything about our family history,&#8221; says Scott Lorenz, founder of Westwind Communications in Plymouth, Michigan, who is leading a new effort to encourage people to obtain first-person, family biographies of their parents through the writing of an ethical will.  ÂItÂs a great way for a family member to pass on their beliefs, values, lessons learned in life to future generations,Â says Lorenz.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Because written history speaks to future generations, more and more people are having ethical wills and family biographies written about their parents and loved ones &#8211; to preserve the richness and uniqueness of their parents&#8217; life for their children and grandchildren.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>This is not genealogy but a written document of living history that will be enjoyed by your parents while they are still alive and will be passed on to future generations for both enlightenment and enjoyment, Lorenz stresses.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>&#8220;If your parents are in their 70Âs or 80Âs,&#8221; says Lorenz, &#8220;they may never meet your grandchildren. What will you tell them? My experience is that tales obtained from personal interviews by professional writers are exceedingly more satisfactory than the stale, lifeless facts obtained from written documents obtained by genealogists, such as birth and death certificates or passenger manifests.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Lorenz is offering a unique service of writing an ethical will through a first-person family biography narratives obtained by professional interviewers and trained journalists from personal phone conversations. Within 30 days from when the order is placed, the material is then presented in a written document to be edited for accuracy and satisfaction by the family member placing the order.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Lorenz perfected the technique when arranging for his mother&#8217;s and father&#8217;s family histories to be written.  &#8220;I learned by trial and error that the best way to preserve family history is by having a third party, not related to the family, interview my parents.&#8221; explains Lorenz. &#8220;I found out much more about my loved ones because they were more open and honest with a stranger.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>In its November 22, 2002 edition TIME magazine noted that Lorenz was &#8220;in the forefront of what is a growing trend for families: gathering &#8211; or hiring someone else to gather &#8211; the history, anecdotes and reflections of an aging relative before it&#8217;s too late.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>After sharing copies of his parents&#8217; family biographies, friends expressed an interest in the process and product and encouraged Lorenz to share his unique findings with other families. Lorenz put together a web site which makes it easy for people to hire his firm to write an ethical will.   The site contains dozens of questions that can be selected to be asked by the writer. Says, Lorenz, ÂWe even ask for the contact information and the best time to reach the loved one to be interviewed. We take the pain out of completing this project. It does not get any easier.Â  </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Clients may choose from a variety of packages from one person (up to 12 pages) to two people (up to 40 pages.) and range in price from $  750 and up which is often split between siblings as a collective gift to their parents. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>&#8220;We believe in deadlines,&#8221; concluded Lorenz. &#8220;Want it for a birthday or anniversary? No problem. Turn your mother or dad over to us for a phone interview and within 30 days you will have in your hands a story of your parents that will be cherished by your children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. Could you think of a better Christmas  gift than to tell Dad and Mom theyÂre going to be interviewed for an ethical will and family history?Â</p>

<p class="releaseDateline">West Hollywood, CA (PRWEB) May 10, 2010 </p>
<p> Geni.com, the fun, free, and easy way to build your family tree, today announced that users can order archival quality posters of their family tree. These posters feature a five generation family tree in a variety of customizable designs.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>“Geni has enabled over five million users to build a family tree with their family. Because everyone in the family works together on their tree, our users find that they quickly have a tree complete with names, dates, and photos,” said David Sacks, CEO of Geni.com. “Now everyone in the family can order a poster of their shared tree. This really makes a beautiful addition to any home.”</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Unlike other genealogy sites, families on Geni all share one family tree. This makes it simple to order a complete family tree for a relative. Family Tree posters make great gifts for birthdays, mother’s day, and other family oriented holidays.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The 16&#8243; × 20&#8243; posters are available in two formats:&#13;<br />
</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
  Deluxe Framed Canvas ($  119.99) – A durable gift or keepsake printed on high quality canvas and mounted in beautiful wood frame&#13;<br />
  Basic Tree Poster ($  29.99) – Printed on high quality, archival photo paper
<p>Users can order a family tree on Geni with just a few simple clicks. In addition to six preset styles, users can customize almost every aspect of their tree poster, with over 100,000 possible configurations. A variety of shipping options are available.</p>

<p class="releaseDateline">Phoenix, AZ (Vocus/PRWEB) February 17, 2011 </p>
<p> Gillespie, Shields &amp; Durrant has earned an important win in a civil litigation case that involved a breach of contract.  This landmark win has helped the family law firm in Phoenix, AZ expand their resume’ to include wins in other areas of law.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The established Phoenix family law firm, Gillespie, Shields &amp; Durrant is also gaining a reputation for advocating for clients in civil litigation, breach of contract, malpractice and personal injury cases.  The firm’s attorney David Goldfarb was cited in the December 2010 issue of Arizona Attorney magazine for his notable win in a breach of contract case.  With Goldfarb as her relentless advocate, the client was awarded damages after her friend breached her promise to share gambling winnings.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>For the past 25 years, GS&amp;D has been building a gold-standard reputation for strong and smart family law advocacy in divorce, custody and support cases.  Not surprisingly, as recognition of the firm grew, more and more families and businesses that trusted the Arizona family law lawyers began to ask the firm to represent them in their civil lawsuits as well.  The GS&amp;D civil litigation section has now represented Arizonans in a wide range of cases.  Employment law is a centerpiece of the firm’s Arizona civil litigation arm, as is business litigation, and personal injury litigation, and, as in Mr. Goldfarb&#8217;s publicized case, individuals&#8217; breach of contract lawsuits.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>David Goldfarb’s win highlights the type of success that Gillespie, Shields and Durrant litigators bring to their clients throughout Arizona.  A consummate litigator and trial lawyer who has practiced in state and federal courts, Mr. Goldfarb is a fierce advocate in the courtroom.  He applies his trial skills on behalf of GS&amp;D clients in a wide range of civil litigation issues, from breach of contract and nursing home abuse suits to business disputes and personal injury cases.  Arizona Attorney magazine&#8217;s recognition of his successful civil litigation for breach of oral contract is  an indicator of his long record of success  in the courtroom.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>

<p class="releaseDateline">Provo, Utah (PRWEB) August 15, 2006 </p>
<p> Family History Builder announced today their offering of a new service using email to help individuals and families in building a family history. Each week subscribers respond to an email containing a memory provoking question, such as &#8220;What do you remember about first learning to ride a bicycle?&#8221; and gradually start writing their own history.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>&#8220;Many people struggle with knowing where to start writing their family history, as well as their own personal history&#8221;, said Michael Jensen, Managing Member with Family History Builder. &#8220;We have tried to make it easier to not only start writing your history, but to keep at it week after week, and year after year. We’ve also set the price to make if affordable for most.”</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The FamilyHistoryBuilder.com service makes it easier to start writing, because the questions help people recall memories they might not have remembered through other mainstream journal writing activities. Handling the questions and responses by email makes it convenient to keep a family history. After subscribers respond to their weekly question by email, the entry is then saved securely in an online account. All entries can be updated online, and new entries can be created at any time on any topic, even a more standard journal entry or an important event can be easily recorded. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Family History Builder also delivers personalized questions based on the profile created during the sign up process. For example, questions may be specifically geared to ask about vacation destinations or educational experiences.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>“We do more than just the weekly email too,” says Michael Jensen, “we also allow you to upload pictures, movies, sound files, and other documents along with an entry for maximum creativity and flexibility.” If desired, entries  and other file types can also be shared online, whether to only family  members or to the public.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Family History Builder offers several ways, including online, for sharing entries. Subscribers can download or print entries in a formatted PDF file. Entries can be published online, similar to the popular blog format. “We are also gearing up to announce our new book publishing feature, where you can order a hard bound book of your entries and photos, to preserve for generations to come,” explained Michael Jensen.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>A recent subscriber, Esther O. from Meridian, Idaho wrote in about her experience in using Family History Builder: “It has given me the opportunity to enjoy learning about my family as I have had to consider ways that I am like them or what it is that I have gained from them.” Esther also wrote about who is benefiting from her subscription to Family History Builder: “I feel that what I am creating here is not only for the benefit of my posterity, but for me as well as I build it.”</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>About Family History Builder:</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Family History Builder began in February 2006 and is an online service helping individuals and families to record and share their history, stories, and memories. By responding to weekly questions, subscribers gradually build a compilation of entries about themselves and their family to be preserved for generations to come.</p>
