This week, the Canton Public Library unveiled its new video game collection in the Adult Department. We are now offering games for XBOX 360, Sony Playstation 3 and Nintendo Wii. Games are located next to the TV series dvd collection so stop in and check one out.

That link takes you to the Internet Movie Database and its page about this comedy-crime movie. Combining the two genres in a single movie isn't easy, but this film manages to do it effectively, notwithstanding the blood and violence depicted. It stars Colin Farrell, Brendan Gleeson and Ralph Fiennes. One Comment from the imdb page describes it well. A Review in Rolling Stone calls the 2008 movie "literate, lively cinema." The New York Times is a bit less complimentary, terming it "an amusing trifle from the potty-mouthed playwright Martin McDonagh." If you like movies such as Pulp Fiction, though, then In Bruges is one to seek out.

A hot topic among today's educators is Inclusion, the practice of teaching students with disabilities in the context of regular education classrooms. To learn more I conducted a search in our education database, ERIC, which pointed to an interesting article in Phi Delta Kappan (January, page 389-391), a periodical that the library owns. The article, What Do Students Think About Inclusion, was originally an assignment given to future teachers by a special education professor at Indiana State University. Teachers-to-be were sent to the mall to interview young people about their views of including special needs students in general classes.

What types of articles are in Religion Virtual Collection's Encyclopedia of the Unexplained? Articles about the history of what is mysterious, spooky and sacred, for one thing.
