Double bill of children's features. 'Marmaduke' (2010) is a part
live action, part CGI-animated family comedy based on the
long-running comic strip. When the Winslow family moves from Kansas
to Orange County, California with their goofy, accident-prone Great
Dane, Marmaduke (voiced by Owen Wilson), the big dog experiences
all kinds of trouble fitting in with his new canine neighbours. The
film also features the voice talents of Emma Stone, William H.
Macy, Sam Elliott, Steve Coogan and Kiefer Sutherland. 'Firehouse
Dog' (2007) follows Rex, Hollywood's top-grossing canine known for
his extreme athletic abilities and diva-like demeanour. His perks
package, rivalling that of any A-list celebrity, includes Kobe
beef, a poodle harem and a diamond collar. Unfortunately an
accident that occurs while Rex is shooting a commercial leads his
handlers to presume he's dead. But Rex is merely lost. Alone,
filthy and unrecognisable in an unfamiliar city, how will Rex deal
with a scenario much more common to dogs than his previous pampered
existence?

It didn't start out as the worst day of Natalie Miller's life. .
. .
As the top aide to New York's powerful woman senator, Natalie's
moving rapidly up the political ladder. She works hard, stays late,
and enjoys every bit of it. Then her neglected boyfriend announces
he's leaving. But that's only the beginning. Her doctor gives her
the worst news any woman can hear, and suddenly the life Natalie
needs to change is her own.
The time has come for her to overcome her strange obsession with
The Price Is Right and take a tough look at the choices she's made.
She'll start by tracking down the five loves of her life in order
to assess what went wrong. And by revisiting her past, Natalie just
might discover exciting new paths to unexplored places--and learn
how to stop barreling through life long enough to really embrace
it.

"Recommended for the provocative questions it raises concerning the
effect on the patient of the structure of medical care, concerning
the important decisions regarding policy facing the medical
profession, the hospital administrator, and the public, and for the
discussions of legal and economic dimensions which are frequently
forgotten by personnel working directly with the patient.Edmund C.
Payne, Psychiatry in Medicine The fourteen original articles in The
Dying Patient examine the problems of dying and medical conduct
from the perspectives of sociology, economics, medicine, and the
law.

This volume of "Research in Social Science and Disability" brings
together interdisciplinary scholarship to examine a wide array of
issues related to disability and community, a topic of critical
importance academically and politically. The evolving and
politically contested notions of community sit at the centre of
much of the recent research on disability and, as researchers both
create and reflect various ideas of membership when defining
"disability" and aggregating individuals, their methodological
decisions have significant implications for how we come to
understand disability and community. This volume also examines a
wide range of social institutions and practices such as education,
employment, and cultural venues and the extent to which and how
they include people with disabilities in the workings of these
institutions. It includes research framed by a variety of
theoretical perspectives and research methodologies and offers
innovative ways to envision inclusive communities and, therefore,
enables us to consider how to move forward to create them.
Parents of children with disabilities often situate their activism
as a means of improving the world for their child. However, some
disabled activists perceive parental activism as working against
the independence and dignity of people with disabilities. This
thorny relationship is at the heart of the groundbreaking Allies
and Obstacles. The authors chronicle parents' path-breaking
advocacy in arenas such as the right to education and to liberty
via deinstitutionalization as well as how they engaged in legal and
political advocacy. Allies and Obstacles provides a macro analysis
of parent activism using a social movement perspective to reveal
and analyze the complex-and often tense-relationship of parents to
disability rights organizations and activism. The authors look at
organizational and individual narratives using four case studies
that focus on intellectual disability, psychiatric diagnoses,
autism, and a broad range of physical disabilities including
cerebral palsy and muscular dystrophy. These cases explore the
specific ways in which activism developed among parents and people
with disabilities, as well as the points of alliance and the key
points of contestation. Ultimately, Allies and Obstacles develops
new insights into disability activism, policy, and the family.
