Wedged somewhere in between the clouds and the trees, John Boeddeker goes to work. His office atop a 120 foot crane he stands alongside "Old Glory" which he proudly flies in memory of 9/11. His job, he tracks a little white golf ball as it travels between blue sky and a host of clouds. Bo, as he's known on the tour, has released a new book - a coffee table book titled "My Office Window." It's filled with aerial images high above of some of the greatest golf venues on tour. "The Players"-TPC Sawgrass; "Arnold Palmer Invitational" - Bay Hill; "The US Open" - Pinehurst No.2; and many more, all captured during tournament play. This coffee table book came about by accident Boeddeker says, while taking short breaks from golf coverage he began snapping still photos from his enviable perch above the action. With the encouragement of family and friends and with the support of NBC Sports, Boeddeker partnered with "Samsung Telecommunications of America" and "Blurb Publishing" as well as securing agreements with both the PGA TOUR and the USGA, this photo book is now available for purchase. "My Office Window," By John G. Boeddeker, is a large 40 pages of landscape, full-color photographs. Priced at only $39.99 with a portion of the proceeds going to the "Wounded Warrior Project".

Thank You For The Window Office is the second book by Egyptian-American poet and translator Maged Zaher. This is a book as much about alienation as it is about belonging. Zaher investigates the subtleties of place and identity in late-capitalism, the corporate world, and the dating scene. These poems navigate the linguistic landscapes that an immigrant writing in his non-native tongue negotiates daily in a foreign culture. This unusual confluence creates a wry exploration of the social and lingual that blends the musicality of the Arabic language with a sardonic humor unique to American popular culture. "Maged Zaher is in my view the contemporary writer simultaneously the furthest inside and the most outside the English language as we know it. If Frank O'Hara had been an Arab and a Coptic Christian living in late capitalist Seattle, he would have been called Maged Zaher." --Leonard Schwartz

In Windows on the World, architect and artist Matteo Pericoli explores the idea of staring out a window, searching for inspiration by pairing his own line drawings alongside fifty writers from around the globe. From Orhan Panuk in Istanbul and Daniel Kehlmann in Berlin, to Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie in Lagos and Xi Chuan in Beijing, the views from each window resonate with each other.

These plays by Andy Bragen examine the intimacies and shadows that exist between parents and children. In This Is My Office, a guided tour through an empty office becomes the unexpected portal to a forgotten New York and a father’s legacy. This play brings you face-to-face with a narrator who finds his way through doubt, soul-sickness, and doughnut cravings by telling you a story. Not the one he meant to tell, but a richer one about family, redemption, and love. The autobiographical Notes on My Mother’s Decline evokes the final days of a woman’s life. Late at night, while his baby daughter sleeps, a son takes notes on his mother’s daily life and scenes from their complicated relationship. He is shaping a play, as well as a perspective. Two blocks away, his mother naps, smokes, reads, and drinks coffee. She is shaping her existence within encroaching confines. Bragen plumbs silences and one-sided conversations to ask how we come to know one another as parents and as children. How do we care for those we love, and what does it take to live with—and without—them?

The stories in this book are real. In 1942 at the age of five while sleeping across the hallway from my bedroom, a supernatural event occurred on a cold night in January when an angel awakened me by physically pulling the bedcover downward from my shoulder toward my feet. This person was standing on the right side of my bed, plainly in the dark of the night as a human being. My parents had no knowledge of what was happening. My life from this moment forward dealt with angels of Jesus Christ our Lord. Every story prophesized by angels in dreams, visions, and instant communications were always accurate. These true stories continue today.

Revelations of abuse at Baghdad's Abu Ghraib prison and the U.S. detention camp at Guantánamo Bay had repercussions extending beyond the worldwide media scandal that ensued. The controversy surrounding photos and descriptions of inhumane treatment of enemy prisoners of war, or EPWs, from the war on terror marked a watershed momentin the study of modern warfare and the treatment of prisoners of war. Amid allegations of human rights violations and war crimes, one question stands out among the rest: Was the treatment of America's most recent prisoners of war an isolated event or part of a troubling and complex issue that is deeply rooted in our nation's military history?Military expert Robert C. Doyle's The Enemy in Our Hands: America's Treatment of Prisoners of War from the Revolution to the War on Terror draws from diverse sources to answer this question. Historical as well as timely in its content, this work examines America's major wars and past conflicts -- among them, the American Revolution, the Civil War, World Wars I and II, and Vietnam -- to provide understanding of the UnitedStates' treatment of military and civilian prisoners. The Enemy in Our Hands offers a new perspective of U.S. military history on the subject of EPWs and suggests that the tactics employed to manage prisoners of war are unique and disparate from one conflict tothe next. In addition to other vital information, Doyle provides a cultural analysis and exploration of U.S. adherence to international standards of conduct, including the 1929 Geneva Convention in each war. Although wars are not won or lost on the basis of how EPWs are treated, the treatment of prisoners is one of the measures by which history's conquerors are judged.
