Narrator, James Lurie.Examines the impact of the seven deadly sins on mankind throughout the ages.Learn how the concept originated - as a way to keep a lustful fourth-century monk from sinning again - and how the sins were pared down from eight to the seven we recognize today: gluttony, lust, greed, anger, sloth, envy, and pride.

Largaespada, Dennis Christian, Joni Thome, Corey Nabozny, Travis Nabozny, William Davis, Jessey Gilbertson, Lynn Garder-Kleinke.This film tells the story of Jamie Nabozny, a gay student who endured relentless bullying in both middle and high school despite seeking help from school administrators. Jamie fought back, not with his fists but in a courtroom. His historic federal case established that gay and lesbian students have a constitutional right to be free from harassment and bullying. Why is a film on anti-gay bullying necessary? Lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender (LGBT) are still subject to physical and verbal harassment or isolation, educators are wary of raising issues relating to sexual orientation or gender identity because the subject is seen as politically or religiously charged. Until school personnel understand that, unless all students feel safe, the school is not providing the best environment in which to learn, they risk sending the message that some bullying is acceptable.DVD; Dolby digital audio.

The clerk's tale / by Trow, M. J.,author.(CARDINAL)354303;
"The Clerk's Tale is the latest instalment in M.J. Trow's popular Geoffrey Chaucer series. As historically accurate and utterly human as its companion books, this story takes the reader on a no-holds-barred tour of medieval Oxford, as Chaucer immerses himself in the rivalries and obsessions of college life. Initially sent to investigate the death of a young student, Chaucer soon finds himself embroiled in matters of philosophy, religion, logic and death. Although he is entertainingly waylaid by tempting women, frightened cats, and even hallucinogens, as more men die Chaucer feels growing pressure to track down the killer and end the carnage. But in the city of dreaming spires and poignard-sharp minds, is he out of his depth?" --

The life of an unknown man : a novel / by Makine, Andreï,1957-(CARDINAL)387223; Strachan, Geoffrey.(CARDINAL)642861;
Shutov, a disenchanted writer, revisits St. Petersburg after twenty years of exile in Paris, hoping to recapture his youth. Instead, he meets Volsky, an old man who tells him his extraordinary story: of surviving the siege of Leningrad, the march on Berlin, and Stalin's purges, and of a transcendent love affair. Volsky's life is an inspiration to Shutov -- because for all that he suffered, he knew great happiness. This depth of feeling stands in sharp contrast to the empty lives Shutov encounters in the new Russia, and to his own life, that of just another unknown man.

Vanity Fair is the story of Becky's spectacular rise and fall as she gambles, manipulates and seduces her way through high society and the Napoleonic wars. -- Publisher's description.
