Reimagining Roald Dahl's beloved story for a modern audience, Robert Zemeckis's visually innovative THE WITCHES tells the darkly humorous and heart-warming tale of a young orphaned boy who, in late 1967, goes to live with his loving Grandma in the rural Alabama town of Demopolis.
The boy and his grandmother come across some deceptively glamorous but thoroughly diabolical witches, so Grandma wisely whisks our young hero away to an opulent seaside resort instead.
Regrettably, they arrive at precisely the same time that the world's Grand High Witch has gathered her fellow cronies from around the globe—undercover—to carry out her nefarious plans.
A criminal mastermind unleashes a twisted form of justice in the terrifying new chapter of Saw.
Working in the shadow of his father, an esteemed police veteran, brash Detective Ezekiel “Zeke” Banks and his rookie partner take charge of a grisly investigation into murders that are eerily reminiscent of the city’s gruesome past.
Unwittingly entrapped in a deepening mystery, Zeke finds himself at the center of the killer’s morbid game.

Rancher Under the Mistletoe by Joanne Rock He thought he’d left
the past behind… Clay Reynolds has returned home to Kingsland
Ranch for the holidays. Yet bitter memories still make him feel
like an outcast. Seeing Hope Alvarez again stirs memories of their
passionate romance…and the letter that ended it. Their desire is
still potent, but neither is willing to trust. Until Clay discovers
his past choices weren’t what they seemed… One Night with a
Cowboy by Tanya Michaels Seduced by a stranger who’s more than he
seems… Mia Zane shared a mind-blowing night of passion with Jace
Malone. Focused now on saving her struggling veterinary practice,
Mia’s shocked to discover she’s pregnant…and that Jace is a
billionaire. Jace vows to protect her the way he couldn’t protect
his family. But will using his wealth to fix Mia’s problems push
her away for good?
This volume responds to a growing interest in the language of legal
settings by situating the study of language and law within
contemporary theoretical debates in discourse studies, linguistic
anthropology, and sociolinguistics. The chapters in the collection
explore many of the common occasions when those acting on behalf of
the legal system, such as the police, lawyers and judges, interact
with those coming into contact with the legal system, such as
suspects and witnesses. However the chapters do this work through
the conceptual lens of 'textual travel', or the way that texts move
across space and time and are transformed along the way.
Collectively, notions of textual travel shed new light on the ways
in which texts can influence, and are influenced by, social and
legal life. With contributions from leading experts in language and
law, Legal-Lay Communication explores such 'textual travel' themes
as the mediating role of technologies in the investigatory stages
of the legal process, the centrality of intertextuality in the
legal construction of cases in court, the transformative effects of
recontextualization in processes of judicial decision-making, and
the way that processes of textual travel disturb the apparent
permanence of legal categorization. The book challenges both the
notion of legal text as a static repository of meaning and the very
idea of legal-lay or lay-legal communication.
Prior to 1979, China had a bifurcated and geographically-dispersed
industrial structure made up of a relatively small number of
large-scale, state-owned enterprises in various industries
alongside numerous small-scale, energy-intensive and polluting
enterprises. Economic reforms beginning in 1979 led to the rapid
expansion of these small-scale manufacturing enterprises in
numerous energy-intensive industries such as aluminum, cement, iron
and steel, and pulp and paper. Subsequently, the government adopted
a new industrial development strategy labeled "grasp the large, let
go the small." The aims of this new policy were to close many of
the unprofitable, small-scale manufacturing plants in these (and
other) industries, create a small number of large enterprises that
could compete with OECD multinationals, entice these larger
enterprises to engage in high-speed technological catch-up, and
save energy. China's Technological Catch-Up Strategy traces the
impact of this new industrial development strategy on technological
catch-up, energy use, and CO2 emissions. In doing so, the authors
explore several detailed, enterprise-level case studies of
technological catch-up; develop industry-wide estimates of energy
and CO2 savings from specific catch-up interventions; and present
detailed econometric work on the determinants of energy intensity.
The authors conclude that China's strategy has contributred to
substantial energy and CO2 savings, but it has not led to either a
peaking of or a decline in CO2 emissions in these industries. More
work is needed to cap and reduce China's CO2 emissions.

Chris Rock presents this documentary offering an insight into the
fiercely competitive world of Afro-American hairdressing. The film
includes a visit to the Bronner Brothers International Hair Show,
the annual trade show for the African-American hair care industry.
It also looks into the dangers of many common hair-straightening
treatments, reveals the alarmingly high cost of regular hair
'relaxing' and weaves, and asks what the ongoing pursuit of
straight hair says about African-American cultural identity.
In this book, eCoaching pioneer Marcia Rock draws on best-practice
research and decades of experience to offer a blueprint for
professional development that maximizes teacher and student
growth.The eCoaching Continuum for Educators provides teachers,
administrators, and other school professionals a step-by-step guide
to the four connected, coordinated components of technology-enabled
professional development: (1) studying theory and practice to build
knowledge of specific content and pedagogy; (2) observing theory
and practice to aid in the transfer of new knowledge to classroom
practice; (3) one-on-one coaching to give teachers the feedback
they need to improve classroom practice; and (4) group coaching to
build capacity for identifying and solving problems of professional
practice. Rock offers a practical approach for putting professional
development where it can do the most good-in the classroom. You'll
learn: Why technology is so well suited for authentic, job-embedded
professional development. How to cultivate a culture in which the
eCoaching continuum can have the greatest impact. Which
technologies are the most useful for carrying out eCoaching in a
variety of settings. How to capture and evaluate the impact of
eCoaching on teachers and students. The eCoaching Continuum for
Educators integrates best practice in coaching for professional
development with a detailed account of how teachers and other
school professionals can use today's technologies to improve their
practice and ensure their students are fully engaged and learning.
