Animated horror featuring the voices of Steve Buscemi, Nick Cannon,
Maggie Gyllenhaal and Kevin James. DJ Harvard (voice of Mitchel
Musso) lives directly across the street from a most unusual house.
A malevolent entity that longs to feed on the energy of the living,
the once peaceful house that looms ominously outside of DJ's
bedroom window would like nothing more than the chance to feast on
the children of the neighborhood. As Halloween begins to draw near
and the children of the neighbourhood prepare for another long
night of trick-or-treating, it appears as if it may be the house
that is in for the biggest treat of all.
The Light of Truth has been written entirely whilst in close
prayer, and every word has been given by The Holy Spirt. It is a
book of proverbs, psalms, and teachings. It is a book about life
and eternal life. It is a book of truth. Each one of us has to come
to the point when we wonder what life is all about. How is it we
are alive, how the world was made, and most importantly - why? When
i searched openly for the truth - i found God. He is a Spirit full
of love and compassion! I asked him everything I could, showed him
evey doubt that science and modern society has raised in me. He
answered all my questions and sometimes I was told to write the
answers down. This book is the result.
The county of Tripoli in what is now North Lebanon is arguably the
most neglected of the so-called 'crusader states' established in
the Middle East at the beginning of the twelfth century. The
present work is the first monograph on the county to be published
in English, and the first in any western language since 1945. What
little has been written on the subject previously has focused upon
the European ancestry of the counts of Tripoli: a specifically
Southern French heritage inherited from the famous crusader Raymond
IV of Saint-Gilles. Kevin Lewis argues that past historians have at
once exaggerated the political importance of the counts' French
descent and ignored the more compelling signs of its cultural
impact, highlighting poetry composed by troubadours in Occitan at
Tripoli's court. For Lewis, however, even this belies a deeper
understanding of the processes that shaped the county. What emerges
is an intriguing portrait of the county in which its rulers
struggled to exert their power over Lebanon in the face of this
region's insurmountable geographical forces and its sometimes
bewildering, always beguiling diversity of religions, languages and
cultures. The counts of Tripoli and contemporary Muslim onlookers
certainly viewed the dynasty as sons of Saint-Gilles, but the
county's administration relied upon Arabic, its stability upon the
mixed loyalties of its local inhabitants, and its very existence
upon the rugged mountains that cradled it. This book challenges
prevailing knowledge of this little-known crusader state and by
extension the medieval Middle East as a whole. .

Kevin James returns to work as everyone's favourite mall cop in the sequel to the 2009 comedy. When clumsy, overweight security guard Paul Blart (James) travels to Las Vegas with his daughter Maya (Raini Rodriguez) to attend the annual Security Guard Conference, he inadvertently discovers that a heist is being planned by master criminal Vincent (Neal McDonough). As the security team of the Las Vegas hotels refuse to take the threat seriously, Blart takes it upon himself to find the crooks and catch them in the act, proving to himself and everyone around him that he's still got what it takes to be a good security guard.
The cast also includes Eduardo Verastegui, Daniella Alonso and David Henrie.
High school comedy co-written by and starring Kevin James. Scott
Voss (James) used to wrestle at college but now performs the
slightly less dangerous role of teaching biology at Wilkinson High
School. The school is underperforming and it isn't long before the
relevant authorities announce that its music budget will have to be
cut, leaving Scott's buddy Marty (Henry Winkler), the school music
teacher, without a job. Voss announces that he intends to raise the
50,000 dollars necessary to keep the programme alive himself and
takes on night tuition. The profession isn't as lucrative as he
hoped but when he discovers that one of his students, Niko (Bas
Rutten), used to compete in the Ultimate Fighting Championship and
could earn 10,000 dollars for losing a fight, Voss is possessed by
an idea. If he can make it into the unforgiving territory of the
UFC he can earn the money to save the school music programme...
Salma Hayek also stars.
The Orthodox Church understands the Holy Scriptures to be the
fountainhead of Tradition. The stories read in the Bible are
commonly explored and elaborated in greater depth in liturgical
hymns, homilies, and patristic writings. Such is the case with the
account found in St Luke’s gospel of a sinful woman who anoints
Christ with precious oil shortly before his Passion and
Crucifixion. The woman’s story is taken up in the liturgical
tradition of the Orthodox Church in Holy Week, where she is held up
as an example of repentance and unconstrained love. In this
in-depth but readable study the biblical accounts are elaborated
through both the liturgical and oratorical tradition of the Church,
as found primarily in Greek and Syriac manuscripts, with particular
attention given to the former texts, too often overshadowed by the
latter. Previously inaccessible texts of late antiquity, such as
homilies by Amphilochius of Iconium and Ephrem Graecus, are found
here in English for the first time, together with fresh English
renderings of other sermons. This sharply honed and
well-constructed work will engage all who encounter the story of
the sinful woman in the living tradition of worship in the Orthodox
Church, as well as those who are introduced to her through
Scripture, liturgical poetry, or scholarly consideration. The
present work unveils the intricate nature of the tradition of the
Church, which gives greater scope and application to the biblical
record through its hymnography and oratory.

Buddy movie taken to extremes. New York firefighters Chuck Levine
(Adam Sandler) and Larry Valentine (Kevin James) live different
lives. Whilst Chuck is a self-confessed lothario out for a good
time, Larry is a widower struggling to keep a regular home life for
the sake of his two young children. With Larry refusing to take up
life as a single parent and deal with his loss, he forgets to
change the primary beneficiary of his pension from his wife to his
children before the cut-off date, which would financially protect
them in the event of a work injury. The only solution is to get
married again, but Larry decides there's no other woman he could
trust enough with his children's future. During a routine search of
a burning house, Larry saves Chuck's life in an accident and Chuck
is forever indebted to his best mate as they awake in hospital.
Evaluating his predicament whilst in his sick bed, Larry finds an
article about a same-sex domestic partnership and realises Chuck
could pay his debt quicker than anticipated! After wearing Chuck
down, they eventually get hitched in a bizarre Las Vegas wedding
chapel and just when they settle in to a scene of same-sex domestic
bliss for the sake of the kids, they soon realise that their gay
union is going to be under serious scrutiny from surprise inspector
Clinton Fitzer (Steve Buscemi), who is always ready to catch out
straight guys cheating the system.
