Noah Baumbach writes and directs this comedy starring Ben Stiller
and Naomi Watts as a childless married couple living in New York
who befriend a younger and more exciting couple. Fed up of their
friends who pressure them into beginning a family of their own,
documentary film-maker Josh (Stiller) and wife Cornelia (Watts)
meet hipster couple Jamie (Adam Driver) and Darby (Amanda Seyfried)
and start to enjoy the new and refreshing experiences that come
with the territory. However, are Jamie and Darby's motivations for
spending time with the older couple as harmless as they seem?
Despite the efforts of teachers and educators, every year secondary
schools across the English-speaking world turn out millions of
functionally illiterate leavers. The costs in human misery and in
wasted productivity are catastrophic. What can schools do to
prevent this situation? In this highly accessible book James and
Dianne Murphy combine more than 50 years of experience to provide
teachers with a thorough, easy to use introduction to the extensive
research on reading and its effects on student achievement. Drawing
on the work of experts from around the world, the authors explore
how we learn to read, how the many myths and misconceptions around
reading developed, and why they continue to persist.Building on
these foundations chapters go on to examine how the general
secondary school classroom can support all levels of reading more
effectively, regardless of subject; how school leaders can ensure
that their systems, practices and school culture deliver the very
best literacy provision for all students; and what it takes to
ensure that a racing intervention aimed at adolescent struggling
readers is truly effective. The overall message of this books is
one of great optimism: the authors demonstrate that the right of
every child to learn to read is entirely achievable if schools
employ the best research-driven practice.

This is the original English version of Mein Kampf translated by
James Murphy under contract with the Nazi party. It was made before
his altered British version was released and published in small
numbers inside Nazi Germany. Mein Kampf covers a wide-scope that
offers an interesting interpretation of politics, business, people,
and foreign policy matters. To characterize it as simply a racist
work is to oversimplify its message. Germany did not follow Hitler
because he was a racist, they followed him because he promised a
great future, and Mein Kampf is where he promised that great
future. This is the original translation of Mein Kampf by James
Murphy created for the Nazi government. This is the official and
final edition published by the Nazi government. Murphy went on to
alter the translation for publication in Britain, however his
polished version was very different and included racial slurs which
were not in the original text as well as some embellishments that
were his own invention.
