A collection of children's animated adventures from the Blue Sky
studios. In 'Epic' (2013), Mary Katherine (voice of Amanda
Seyfried) lives in a cabin in the woods with her eccentric father,
Professor Bomba (Jason Sudeikis), who studies the local fauna. One
day, when he doesn't return from a hike in the forest, she sets out
to find him, inadvertently stumbling across some strange glowing
leaves. Clutching one, Mary Katherine is shrunken down to the
forest floor, where, after meeting up with a group of warriors
known as the Leafmen, she finds herself helping her new friends in
their war to save their world from the clutches of the evil
Boggans. In 'Horton Hears a Who!' (2008), a jungle elephant named
Horton (Jim Carrey) discovers a race of tiny beings living in a
solitary dandelion. Recognising the dangers they face, the friendly
pachyderm resolves to keep his microscopic pals safe. However, as
Horton is the only one who hears the inhabitants of 'Whoville', his
other animal pals are convinced he's gone crazy and resolve to do
something about it. Horton and his miniscule friends must struggle
against these impossible odds to prevent disaster. In 'Ice Age'
(2002), a group of three animals embark upon an epic journey at the
dawn of the great ice age. Sid the sloth (John Leguizamo), Manfred
the woolly mammoth (Ray Romano), and Diego the sabre-toothed tiger
(Denis Leary) team up to help return a human baby to its father,
and must risk life and limb as they traverse boiling lava pits and
travel through dangerous ice caves to complete their mission. In
'Ice Age 2: The Meltdown' (2006), Manny is ready to start a family,
but nobody has seen another mammoth for a long time; in fact, Manny
thinks he may be the last one. That is until he miraculously finds
Ellie (Queen Latifah), the only female mammoth left in the world.
The only problem is, they can't stand each other... In 'Ice Age 3:
Dawn of the Dinosaurs' (2009), Scrat the squirrel (Chris Wedge) is
still trying to get his paws on that ever-elusive nut, Manny and
Ellie anxiously await the birth of their mini-mammoth, and Diego
wonders if he's growing too laid-back living the life of a pampered
house cat. Meanwhile, Sid the sloth gets into trouble when he
creates his own makeshift family by hijacking some unusually large
eggs, and inadvertently discovers a mysterious underground world
where dinosaurs still roam. In 'Ice Age 4: Continental Drift'
(2012), when the entire continent is set adrift following a global
cataclysm, Manny, Diego and Sid find themselves separated from the
rest of the herd. Commandeering a nearby iceberg as a makeshift
boat, they take to the high seas. Fearsome sea creatures and
battlethirsty pirates are among the challenges faced by the
intrepid trio as they ride the waves of the world in search of
their family. In 'Rio' (2011), Blu (Jesse Eisenberg) is a rare
macaw living in a bookshop in small-town Minnesota. Believing
himself to be the last of his kind, he is thrilled to hear that a
female macaw of the same species has been spotted in South America.
Blu must now overcome his social ineptitude and fear of flying and
set out for Rio de Janeiro to track down the feisty and independent
Jewel (Anne Hathaway) and try to win her heart. Finally, in
'Robots' (2005), Rodney Copperbottom (Ewan McGregor) is a small
town robot who has a gift for inventing things and a hope of moving
beyond his quaint surroundings. Dreaming of doing something better
than working alongside his dad in a restaurant, Rodney, armed with
his unique talent for inventing, embarks on a journey to Robot City
to meet his idol, the majestic inventor Bigweld (Mel Brooks).
Come explore the shadow world of supernatural Texas with William
Edward Syers, one of the Southwest's premier storytellers, whose
collection of the Lone Star State's fifty most intriguing tales
consumed two full years of on-the-ground research. Originally
published as Ghost Stories of Texas, this out-of-print regional
classic has been completely revised and updated for a new
generation of readers. Come encounter the "The Headless Horseman,"
"The Phantom on the Mountain," and "The Hounds of Orozimbo."
Explore "Terror's Lake," the haunted "McDow Hole," and "Ghosty
Branch." Venture within "The Gate" or "The Crypts of Old Waverly"
or, for that matter, any of the other chilling tales. Supernatural
Texas was the first statewide exploration of dimensions beyond
normal comprehension. Its content ranges from centuries-old legends
to the here-and-now. You'll encounter specters whose motivations
vary as widely as those of everyday folk--to save or warn, to
disclose, to prove or disprove something long past, to do penance.
And, of course, to seek vengeance! These last are the things to
avoid ...except, of course, within the covers of this book. Perhaps
you can shrug them off. Perhaps you can discount all fifty awaiting
you here. Perhaps. But you won't forget them.
Double-bill of animated movies about a gang of prehistoric animals
who become close friends. In 'Ice Age' (2002), the story begins at
the dawn of the great ice age, when a group of three animals embark
upon an epic journey. Sid the sloth, Manfred the mammal, and Diego
the sabre-toothed tiger team up to help return a human baby to its
father, and must risk life and limb as they traverse boiling lava
pits and travel through dangerous ice caves to complete their
mission. Along the way they also meet Scrat, a squirrel-rat
determined to plant an acorn in a glacier. The film features the
voices of John Leguizamo, Denis Leary and Jack Black. In 'Ice Age 2
- The Meltdown' (2006), Manny the woolly mammoth (voice of Ray
Romano), Sid the sloth (Leguizamo), Diego the saber-toothed tiger
(Leary), and the hapless prehistoric squirrel/rat known as Scrat
(Chris Wedge) are back in this sequel to the popular 2002 film.
Manny is ready to start a family, but nobody has seen another
mammoth for a long time. In fact, Manny thinks he may be the last
one. That is until he miraculously finds Ellie (Queen Latifah), the
only female mammoth left in the world. The only problem being that
they can't stand each other. Ellie comes with some excess baggage
in the form of her two possum friends, Crash (Seann William Scott)
and Eddie (Josh Peck), a couple of daredevil pranksters and cocky,
loud-mouthed troublemakers. When a huge glacial dam holding off
oceans of water is about to break, threatening the entire valley,
the only chance of survival lies at the other end of the valley. So
our three heroes, along with Ellie, Crash and Eddie, form the most
unlikely family as they embark on a mission across an
ever-changing, increasingly dangerous landscape.
Faith In The Grace - We are all children of God, and as such, we
are all brothers and sisters of Christ, whether we have come to
accept him as our savior or not. True Christianity is universal and
unwavering. True Christianity is an opportunity given to all of
God's children regardless of race or region. These are the lessons
I taught my children.
This volume collects the papers accepted for presentation at the
10th IMA C- ference on the Mathematics of Surfaces, held at the
University of Leeds, UK, September 15-17, 2003. As with all earlier
conferences in the series, contributors to this volume come from a
wide variety of countries in Asia, Europe and North America. The
papers presented here re?ect the continued relevance of the s-
ject, and, by comparison with the contents of earlier volumes in
the series, the changing nature of application areas and
mathematical techniques. To give the casual browser of these
proceedings an idea of the diversity of the subject area, the
papers in the present volume cover such topics and techniques as
digital geometry processing, computer graphics, surface topology,
medical applications, subdivision surfaces, surface reconstruction,
surface triangulation, waterma- ing, data compression, data
smoothing, human-computer interaction, extracting
shapeformshading,surfaceheightrecovery,reverseengineering,box-splines,the
Plateau Problem, splines (a variety of papers), trans?nite
blending, and a?ne arithmetic. There is also a paper in memory of
the late Prof. Josef Hoschek of theTechnischeUniversit.

The United States has been in Afghanistan for almost 19 years. It
is the longest war in the history of the United States. The mission
of U.S. forces in Afghanistan has evolved considerably since 2001,
when the United States initiated military action against Al Qaeda
and the Taliban government that protected the group in the wake of
the September 11, 2001 attacks. The United States needs to decide
whether to continue America's longest war and what the mission in
Afghanistan is today.
This collection deals with the central questions which have emerged
from the break-up of the postwar political consensus around the
welfare state. A series of distinguished contributors, including
exponents of alternative positions on welfare from the right, left
and centre, examine key issues in the disputes over the
relationship between the state and welfare. Individual chapters
both explore the different political and theoretical issues in the
debate, and concentrate on their application in key areas of social
policy. Particular attention is given to the role of social work,
and public policy and the family. The final section of the book
examines the political sources of the current crisis of social
policy, and the prospects for a resolution of the crisis of the
welfare state. The State or the Market is a set book on the Open
University Course D211, Social Problems and Social Welfare.
