A near death experience introduces Melina to Mr. Hobb, the liaison between our world and the next. She discovers death is not passive. Dying involves choices that affect the living. Doctors discard her new-found knowledge by labeling her delusional. Only an autistic child who straddles both worlds knows Mr. Hobb is real and realizes Melina is in danger. Is delusion a term used to keep minds firmly shut to truths that do not fit into our conception of what they should be? Can an ordinary person be saved when they encounter the extraordinary? Dr. Ryan Delaney and his best friend Detective Zack Brolin are on the verge of believing her, but will their alliance arrive too late? Imprisoned in Hobbland, salvation might be out of reach.

The Starker family appears to be cursed: every person of Starker blood has died from being struck by lightning. Fourteen-year-old Newton Starker is the last of his line—except for his great-grandmother, Enid, a woman as friendly as a pickled wolverine— and he’s determined to survive. Newton has spent all of his life following a list of rules for self-preservation, guidelines passed down through generations of Starkers. But Newton wants to try something new. He has enrolled at Jerry Potts Academy of Higher Learning and Survival in Moose Jaw with the hope that he’ll be able to beat the odds. But if he wants to go beyond just getting by, Newton is going to need more than rules. He’s going to need friends.

Jolted Images brings together a large cast of mainstream and avant-garde cineastes, artists, photographers, comics creators, poets, and more, to reflect on a wide range of phenomena from the realms of cinema and visual culture in the Yugoslav region, broader Europe, and North America. Far from a staid monograph, the book takes a cue from filmmaker Du¿an Makavejev, who once wrote that there are times when it is necessary "to jolt art, no matter what the outcome"; to that end, the book infuses its analysis with playful, creative transfiguration of the material at hand.

Rothchild tells the incredible story of Robert Campeau's rise and fall, from his acquisition of major department store chains with $11 billion in loans the banks were all too eager to give, to his demise, when the overwhelming debt, coupled with eccentric management practices, drove him into bankruptcy. A fitting epilogue to the money-mad "Era of Debt"--a story of bankers who bent the rules of lending until they broke. Photographs.
