Bill Healy/St. Martin's Press hide caption toggle caption Bill Healy/St. Martin's Press. Rereading Stephen King: week 16 – Pet Sematary. King's introduction to this novel tells a cute story: about how he wrote it, then found himself horrified by it.
It was so wrong, so dark, he put it into a drawer and thought he'd never publish it. It was, he claims, too horrifying to put out into the world. Movie Review - - Review/Film; A Cat and a Toddler Give Reincarnation a Bad Name. ’ - Pet Sematary’ - SOMEWHERE, around the time in 1980 when his novel ''Firestarter'' was published, it was written (I think), or said, that Stephen King was at work on a book that was frightening even to him.
This was a fairly intriguing rumor, because since 1974, when his first novel, ''Carrie,'' came out, this prolific genius of horror had produced some fairly scary books, among the best of which were ''The Shining'' (1977) and ''The Stand'' (1978). Mashable. I haven't managed to read all of Stephen King's novels yet — I'm still working on that — but I have read all of his short stories.

Games on mobile devices, computers, and interactive whiteboards combine graphics, audio, and movement into a coherent whole.
These games are interactive and immersive, forcing the player to be truly invested in the outcome. Players are encouraged to strengthen weaker skills while simultaneously taking advantage of their proficiencies. Electronic games level the playing field, allowing all learners to engage deeply and internalize ideas in the way that suits them best. So regardless of how a student best processes information, he or she will be able to learn the same thing as someone who operates differently. Creating individualized engagement In addition, the increasingly large spectrum of electronic educational games allows teachers to tailor learning to their students’ individual needs.

UN Security Council meets on Syria 'gas attack' The UN Security Council has opened a meeting on a suspected chemical weapons attack in Syria that killed at least 72 of people, including 20 children. Britain, France, and the United States presented a draft resolution demanding a full investigation of the attack on a rebel-held town in Idlib province, but Russia defended its ally in Damascus and said the text was "categorically unacceptable". The draft resolution calls for a full investigation by the Organisation of the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) of the attack in the early hours of Tuesday in the town of Khan Sheikhoun.
If confirmed, the attack would be among the worst incidents of chemical weapons use in Syria's brutal civil war, which has killed nearly half a million people and displaced half the pre-war population.
