Fantasy adventure directed by Sam Raimi. Acting as a prequel to the much-loved classic 'The Wizard of Oz' (1939), the film explores how the titular hero, Oscar Diggs (James Franco), a largely unsuccessful circus magician in Kansas, may have found his way to the Land of Oz and his early days in the magical realm. Seeing his new home as a world of opportunity, Oz firmly believes his luck has changed for the better when he is introduced to three witches, Theodora (Mila Kunis), Evanora (Rachel Weisz) and Glinda (Michelle Williams), who suggest that he is destined for greatness beyond his imagination.
However, before Oscar can realise his true potential, he must journey through Oz and come face-to-face with the problems that haunt the fantastic land.

Alhambra G. Deming's entertaining stories fuse fiction with
figures, teaching young readers arithmetic while entertaining them
with the adventures of Ralph, an entrepreneurial boy who undertakes
odd jobs to support his family. Number Stories was conceived by
Deming as a way of engaging children with numeracy and basic
mathematics. Through the narrative stories in this book, we learn
how to add, subtract, multiply and divide, while concepts such as
percentages and fractions are also explained. Techniques of mental
arithmetic are also explained, with equations demonstrated in clear
and understandable ways. The narration focuses first on Ralph, a
boy whose father is injured at work. Lacking a source of income to
cover his Dad's health expenses, Ralph sells newspapers and
groceries, makes lemonade, and hands in old clothes as a means of
generating money. Later he journeys with his uncle to the family
farm, where he learns how the farm business is a matter of
calculating the size of fields and harvests.

Packed with humor, angst, and that get-even quality women are born
with, this collection offers an insight into the workings of the
heart and devious mind when "done wrong." These stories stitch a
quilt of fun and mayhem that prove the inner strength of women.
Amanda and Lori dish up poison. Randy sends her beloved to the
same psych ward he had planned to confine her to. Mama uses her
computer to move money out of reach. Marylou, with help from an
aunt with a generation-old grievance, seeks revenge against a
lawman who thought he ruled the women in his county henhouse.
Gathered here are women from across the country who have never
met but who offer a glimpse of a hidden-until-needed attribute they
all sharethe willingness, the capability, and the joy, to seek
revenge.
A brand new revised edition of the best-selling graphic novel based
on the enchanting prelude to The Lord of the Rings. First published
in 1990, David Wenzel’s comic book adaptation of J.R.R.
Tolkien’s The Hobbit was an immediate success and has become one
of the best-loved graphic novels of the last 25 years. The Hobbit
is the story of Bilbo Baggins, a quiet and contented hobbit whose
life is turned upside down when he joins the wizard Gandalf and
thirteen dwarves on their quest to reclaim their stolen treasure.
It is a journey fraught with danger – and in the end it is Bilbo
alone who must face the guardian of this treasure, the most-dreaded
dragon, Smaug. Illustrated and hand painted in full colour
throughout, and accompanied by the carefully abridged text of the
original novel, this handsome authorised edition will introduce new
generations to a magical masterpiece – and be treasured by Hobbit
fans of all ages, everywhere. This new edition has been completely
re-scanned from the original paintings to achieve more accurate and
vibrant colours, with David Wenzel revisiting the work to provide
sensitive improvements and additions to the original edition. The
book includes a magnificent and completely new cover design by
Wenzel himself.
I created this work after reflecting on past and present people Who
inspired me in their accomplishments and dedication to Their works
and to society, most of all, I see the treasures of God Manifested
in our everyday lives, overwhelming us with blessings And gifts he
ordained before the foundation of the world. Unfortunately The
graveyard is filled with buried treasures of which the enemy stole.
What- ever gifts God blessed us with, even if they take us to the
stars Remember, he is the source and is worthy to be praised. For
all good Things come from above, therefore they all started with
love. The gift He gave to the world was gifted wrapped in flesh and
sent with the name Of Jesus Christ, the only true bridge between
God and man. So when our Roads meet him at the cross, we can't help
but to acknowledge he paid Our cost. Otherwise, all we work for is
in vain, for without him we're Totally lost. whether it's sports,
medicine, education or some other area Of life he blesses us with
fruits for us to bless one another. remember The blood In our veins
and the air in our lungs, is a blessing from God And the Cross

Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson and Dave Franco return to reprise
their roles as criminal illusionists in this comedy crime drama. A
year on from their last daring heist, The Four Horsemen emerge from
hiding to expose the unethical practices of a corrupt tech magnate.
Unfortunately for them, they instead find themselves blackmailed
into stealing a powerful piece of technology by businessman Walter
Mabry (Daniel Radcliffe). Their quest to steal the decrypting
device known as 'The Stick' takes magicians Danny (Eisenberg),
Merritt (Harrelson), Jack (Franco) and their new partner Lula
(Lizzy Caplan) across the globe as they try to pull off another
elaborate life-or-death illusion, with help from their FBI insider
Dylan Rhodes (Mark Ruffalo). The cast also includes Morgan Freeman,
Jay Chou, Sanaa Lathan and Michael Caine.
This book is about large-scale electronic circuits design driven by
nanotechnology, where nanotechnology is broadly defined as building
circuits using nanoscale devices that are either implemented with
nanomaterials (e.g., nanotubes or nanowires) or following an
unconventional method (e.g., FinFET or III/V compound-based
devices). These nanoscale devices have significant potential to
revolutionize the fabrication and integration of electronic systems
and scale beyond the perceived scaling limitations of traditional
CMOS. While innovations in nanotechnology originate at the
individual device level, realizing the true impact of electronic
systems demands that these device-level capabilities be translated
into system-level benefits. This is the first book to focus on
nanoscale circuits and their design issues, bridging the existing
gap between nanodevice research and nanosystem design.
My writings came from my Road to Damascus, whereas the Lord opened
my eyes and delivered me from myself and the enemy, and inspired me
to share. The word he freely blessed me with, to all who wish to
receive it, the Collaboration is from the word of god and from
everyday people and conversations from those who are hurting and
are in need of a word Of which I call planting a seed, for the
bible says "One planteth, one watereth, but god give the increase
remember if one member suffers, All suffers, when one member
rejoice, all rejoice." --- Willie G. Demings

Dynamic logic (DL) recently had a highest impact on the
development in several areas of modeling and algorithm design. The
book discusses classical algorithms used for 30 to 50 years (where
improvements are often measured by signal-to-clutter ratio), and
also new areas, which did not previously exist. These achievements
were recognized by National and International awards. Emerging
areas include cognitive, emotional, intelligent systems, data
mining, modeling of the mind, higher cognitive functions, evolution
of languages and other. Classical areas include detection,
recognition, tracking, fusion, prediction, inverse scattering, and
financial prediction. All these classical areas are extended to
using mixture models, which previously was considered unsolvable in
most cases. Recent neuroimaging experiments proved that the
brain-mind actually uses DL. Emotional Cognitive Neural Algorithms
with Engineering Applications" is written for professional
scientists and engineers developing computer and information
systems, for professors teaching modeling and algorithms, and for
students working on Masters and Ph.D. degrees in these areas. The
book will be of interest to psychologists and neuroscientists
interested in mathematical models of the brain and min das
well.
