Research Scholar ISSN 2320 – 6101 www.researchscholar.co.in An International Refereed e-Journal of Literary Explorations Impact Factor 0.793 (IIFS) DOMESTIC VIOLENCE IN STEPHEN KING’S ROSE MADDER Nitasha Baloria Ph.D. Research Scholar Department of English University of Jammu Jammu- 180001 (J&K) Abstract I read it somewhere, “You’ve given him the benefit of the doubt long enough. Now it’s time to give yourself the benefit of the truth.” Marriages have not been a cup of tea for everyone. You are lucky enough if your marriage is a loving one but not everyone is as lucky. Sometimes the wrong marriages or our wrong partners force us to think that it wasn’t a cakewalk, especially when the matter is of DOMESTIC VIOLENCE. As painful as it is to admit that we are being abused, it is even more painful to come to the conclusion that the person we love is someone we cannot afford to be around. This research paper will focus on the theme of Domestic Violence in the novel of Stephen King’s ROSE MADDER. It focuses on the main protagonist Rosie’s life. How She escapes from her eccentric husband and then makes a path to overcome her fear for her husband, leaves him and finally live a happy Life marrying the right person. Keywords:- Domestic Violence, eccentric, wrong Marrieage. “All marriages are sacred, but not all are safe.” - Rob Jackson This paper entitled, “ Domestic Violence in Stephen King’s Rose Madder” aims to explore the life of a young woman named Rosie who is married and is being tortured by her husband by consistent beating.

Work/Construction Zones
Work/Construction Zones Page 1 of 2 A work zone is an area where roadwork takes place and may involve lane closures, detours and moving equipment. Highway work zones are set up according to the type of road and the work to be done on the road. The work zone can be long or short term and can exist at anytime of the year, but most commonly in the summer. Work zones on U.S. highways have become increasingly dangerous places for both workers and drivers. There are a large number of work zones in place across America, therefore, highway agencies are working on not only improving communication used in work zones, but to change the behavior of drivers so crashes can be prevented. According to the National Safety Council, over 100 road construction workers are killed in construction zones each year. Nearly half of these workers are killed as a result of being struck by motor vehicles. The number of construction zone injuries and fatalities are predicted to climb even higher. Increased funding for road construction during recent years has led to a significant increase in the number of highway construction projects around the country. Increased speed limits, impatient drivers, and widespread traffic congestion have led to an overall increase in work zone injuries and fatalities. The top 10 states with motorist fatalities in work zones in 2008 are as follows: 1. Texas—134 6. Pennsylvania—23 2. Florida—81 7. Louisiana—22 3. California—70 8. North Carolina—21 4. Georgia—36 9. Arkansas—19 5. Illinois—31 Source: FARS 10.

Masters Thesis
Abstract The objective of this master’s thesis is to analyse the variations of Stephen King’s The Mist to uncover a method for evaluating an adaptation based on its reception and applying the conclusions of such an evaluation to reflect on other adaptations’ success. The study met this objective through an analysis of the constitutional changes to the narrative’s storytelling elements in the adaptation process. These changes were in turn compared to the other variations of The Mist to locate the abeyant elements, that affected the reception of the individual works. Consequently, the analysis found that The Mist novella and the film adaptation of The Mist were successful, while the television series was unsuccessful. In attempting to analyse The Mist, it was relevant to draw on adaptation studies. A discourse on fidelity has dominated the field of adaptation studies for a long time, in which the original work is superior to the adaptations. This study attempts to challenge the notion of fidelity, which is an approach that other influential theorists within the field of adaptation studies share. Linda Hutcheon has provided the theoretical framework of the analysis in her striking book, “A Theory of Adaptation”. The analysis found that changes to a narrative’s elements can have an impact on an adaptations’ reception, both in positive and negative ways. Furthermore, these changes were found to be generalisable to other adaptations, to locate which potential changes to storytelling elements have affected the reception of those adaptations. In the discussion, the findings of the analysis were used to discuss the reception of other examples of adaptations based on their inherent changes to the narrative, and how those changes coincided with the changes to the different variations of The Mist.

Relentlessly paced and brilliantly orchestrated…fueled by an air of danger immediate and overwhelming” (Publishers Weekly).After surviving fourteen years of hell in a violently abusive marriage, Rosie Daniels has finally summoned the courage to flee for her life. But leaving her husband Norman for a new city and a new start is a very daunting prospect. It’s hard for Rosie not to keep looking over her shoulder, and with good reason—Norman’s a police officer with the instincts of a predator, a force of relentless terror and savagery…a man almost mythic in his monstrosity.He’s very good at finding people, even if he is losing his mind. Rosie’s only hope for salvation may lie in a far more dangerous place, where she must become her own myth and the woman she never knew she could be. I am a huge fan of Stephen King and this book is in my personal top 10 books by him -- its an underrated gem! I purchased this on a whim and was hooked from first page to last.

Stephen King * the Mist
Stephen King * The Mist I. The Coming of the Storm. This is what happened. On the night that the worst heat wave in northern New England history finally broke-the night of July 19-the entire western Maine region was lashed with the most vicious thunderstorms I have ever seen. We lived on Long Lake, and we saw the first of the storms beating its way across the water toward us just before dark. For an hour before, the air had been utterly still. The American flag that my father put up on our boathouse in 1936 lay limp against its pole. Not even its hem fluttered. The heat was like a solid thing, and it seemed as deep as sullen quarry-water. That afternoon the three of us had gone swimming, but the water was no relief unless you went out deep. Neither Steffy nor I wanted to go deep because Billy couldn't. Billy is five. We ate a cold supper at five-thirty, picking listlessly at ham sandwiches and potato salad out on the deck that faces the lake. Nobody seemed to want anything but Pepsi, which was in a steel bucket of ice cubes. After supper Billy went out back to play on his monkey bars for a while. Steff and I sat without talking much, smoking and looking across the sullen flat mirror of the lake to Harrison on the far side. A few powerboats droned back and forth. The evergreens over there looked dusty and beaten. In the west, great purple thunderheads were slowly building up, massing like an army.

Gravel Roads Construction and Maintenance Guide Table of Contents Subject Page
Errata Replaces page 137 Reconstruction Using a Detour When the reconstruction and resulting berm are significant, the work space takes all or most of the road surface, leaving no room for traffic to negotiate past the work activities. An agency may need to reconstruct the unpaved roadway by correcting the drainage and/or adding surface materials. With this type of work, additional equipment may be used and a large amount of material may create a large berm (12 inches or more across). This will present significant hazards for the traveling public. To improve safety for mo torists and workers, a detour may be the best TTC. Not all road users will be familiar with the local road system and some may be confused by the road closure, so signing should be used to assist users negotiating the detour. Reconstruction work space. (Source: Greg Vavra, SDLTAP). Notes: 1. Not all local agencies use route makers for their system. MUTCD Section 6F.59 states “A Street Name sign should be placed above, or the street name should be incorporated into, a DETOUR (M49) sign to indicate the name of the street being detoured.” 2. With an increase in traffic at the intersections where the detour begins and ends, a review of the usage of the STOP and YIELD signs should be completed. 3. Flashing warning lights and/or flags may be used to call attention to advance warning signs. 4. Flashing warning lights may be used on the Type 3 Barricades, which should be installed at the point where the road is closed.

IT(2017) Movie Review
IT(2017) Movie Review By: Hailey DePoy IT (2017) directed by Andrés Mushchietti is set in 1989. Teens will be fond of this movie, not only is it about a clown that takes children, but it has a group of friends that love each other and always will through ups and downs. Despite all of the jumpscares and scary scenes, it’s the type of movie that brings people together, that makes people want to be themselves, not care to be judged by other people. The movie was great and well directed. The story is a remake of Stephen King's IT (1990) book that was set in the 60s/80s. The movie is not only a horror movie, it’s also has a message. Mushchietti did a good job describing the message within the ¨Losers club,¨ that we should care for each other, despite any differences anyone has. The message is more clear when you have watched both IT movies that were directed by Andres Mushchietti, by watching both the message really comes alive and makes you think. Director Andres Mushchietti did remake Stephen King's IT, but he split the book up into two movies, IT and IT Chapter: 2. Mushchietti, also worked with Stephan King in IT Chapter: 2, where Stephan King had a cameo scene as a Clerk in a store. When older Bill Denbrough, played by James McAvoy, wanted to ride Silver (his bike from when he was a kid) for old times sake, he had to buy the bike from the clerk (Stephen King).
