I spent all night covered by a deranged coating of fear. The noise they made kept me trapped in a permanent and sadistically cruel panic. It was nothing compared to the fear I now feel. This fear cuts through me, grabs at my skin, and forces my heart to pump without mercy. A different sound. A different cry. My heart retaliates and pauses once again, desperate for its normal rhythm, and my imagination runs millions of images through my weakened mind. I'm suddenly writing possible futures . my future, my story . thousands of times. They all begin the same way, with the same opening words. She heard a different cry . I hold my breath. Unlike in the alleyway yesterday, time does pause for me now. I exist outside of the normal universe, trapped between one second and the next, as the new sound haunts me. Yes, that is the best way to express the feeling. The only way. I am haunted. I don't know why the world changed, or what happened to everyone, but they are here now. The anger. My name is Shayla. I will survive. I will. Jtt Publishing, United States, 2019. Paperback. Condition: New. Odd Meter Bass (Mixed media product) Tim Emmons.

We could have never imagined the results. The text from the article is transcribed below.

The charges against the defendant’s former fiancee have been dropped, but the case against him continues. By Joseph Serna and Jack Leonard. The criminal charges were disturbing: A Newport Beach fitness photographer in his 30s carried on a months-long sexual relationship with a 15- year-old girl after promising to help her modeling career. Aiding him, prosecutors said, was the photographer’s fiancee, who allegedly gained the trust of the girl’s mother before delivering the teenager to photographer Jason James Ellis so they could spend time alone together. Nearly three years later, as the statutory rape trial draws near, the case has taken a bizarre turn, with Ellis marrying his alleged victim three months after she turned 18. The alleged victim has stopped cooperating, dealing a blow to the prosecution’s case. Last month, the Orange County district attorney’s office dropped all charges against Ellis’ former fiancee, Michelle Hecker, announcing that it could not proceed without the help of the teen’s testimony. Nevertheless, prosecutors say they have enough evidence to push ahead with a trial of Ellis, 36, who has pleaded not guilty. The photographer, who bills himself as the “King of Covers” and shoots bodybuilders and other fitness models, faces up to seven years in prison if convicted of charges including lewd acts on a child and unlawful sexual intercourse. The case underscores the unusual challenge prosecutors face if alleged victims and perpetrators wed. Husbands and wives can refuse to testify against a spouse, but the privilege does not apply in criminal cases in which the spouse is the victim. Legal experts said lawmakers added exceptions to the privilege to prevent offenders from effectively derailing prosecutions by marrying their victims. Complicating the case is the fact that California law prohibits courts from jailing sexual assault victims if they refuse to testify against their alleged assailants. But the law does not apply to victims in statutory rape cases, leaving prosecutors with a difficult decision in the case against Ellis, said Laurie Levenson, a Loyola Law School professor and former federal prosecutor. “What you don’t want is to look like you’re beating up the victim. I don’t think that a jury would like that very much,” Levenson said. “But there may not be much to lose…. If the answer is that they had sex, that’s the end of the case.” The alleged victim could not be reached for comment. The Times generally does not name victims of sex crimes. Authorities say the girl’s mother introduced her daughter to Hecker in 2006 at a Laguna Hills equestrian center. The mother asked Hecker to be a mentor to the girl, and Hecker encouraged the teen to consider modeling. She introduced the girl to Ellis in early 2007, according to court records. That June, the girl’s mother signed a contract with Hecker and Ellis allowing her daughter to work for the couple in return for Ellis taking modeling photographs of the teen. In November 2007, Hecker, Ellis, the girl and her mother took a trip to Paris together. Around the same time, an estranged aunt of the teen called Newport Beach police and said she was troubled by how much time her niece was spending with Ellis and Hecker, according to testimony by a detective at the couple’s preliminary hearing. Newport Beach Police Det. Penny Freeman said investigators checked the couple’s criminal history, found no record and felt they did not have enough information to follow up with the girl or her mother. Still concerned, the aunt approached a private investigator, who watched the girl for a week in June 2008. The investigator’s surveillance video showed Hecker picking the alleged victim up from school, dropping her off at Ellis’ Newport Beach apartment or at the Fashion Island mall, where she would be greeted by Ellis, Freeman testified. One video showed the girl and Ellis eating lunch at a mall restaurant, kissing on the lips and touching affectionately, he said. The private investigator, Thomas Martin, took the girl and her mother into the Newport Beach Police Department with the evidence he had collected. Freeman described Ellis as manipulative and said the girl was naive and in love. “I truly believe that [the girl] loves him,” the detective said in an interview this week. “I don’t know if it’s a genuine relationship the other way around.” The girl told police that Hecker encouraged her to have a relationship with Ellis, according to Freeman’s testimony. The teen said she had sex with Ellis, sometimes while Hecker was in the same apartment working on the computer or cooking dinner for the three of them, according to Freeman. Ellis and Hecker were arrested in July 2008. When police searched Ellis’ home, Freeman testified, they found two framed photos of the girl on his bed stand. Shortly after the arrests, the alleged victim received a text message from Hecker’s cellphone signed “J,” the initial of Ellis’ first name, according to Freeman’s testimony. The message asked the girl whether her mother would consent to her marrying at 16. Hidden in the Amethyst by Jason Ellis.

Chapters draw on advanced contemporary thinking from scholars and practitioners in the field to present case studies of how ICT can be used to promote sustainable development and social justice. Social justice is understood in a wide sense as the pursuit of democracy, justice and development in the struggle against any form of oppression; it is within this context that ICT is explored as a tool for social change. The objectives of this book are: - To analyze the philosophical, historical, political, and cultural backgrounds and contexts that are constitutive of contemporary challenges and tensions in the role of ICT for education, development, and social justice around the world; - To appreciate the contextual and international dimensions of the tensions and challenges faced by educators around the world and contribute to ongoing efforts to sketch a vision for addressing their needs; - To explore ways in which ICT in education can promote social justice and contribute toward sustaining communities around the world.

Totems and Taboos: Risk and Relevance in Research on Teachers and Teaching, is a compilation of s. more Totems and Taboos: Risk and Relevance in Research on Teachers and Teaching, is a compilation of selected papers from the 2007 Biennial conference of the International Study Association on Teachers and Teaching (ISATT), held at Brock University. This volume contains keynote addresses and papers based on thematic presentations delivered at the conference; namely, critically investigative items which have been sacred to systems, institutions, and educational practitioners, in order to inform the theory and practice of teaching and research. While consideration of the native or aboriginal historical tradition of Canada was instrumental in developing a theme dealing with the nature of totems, it was recognized that such a heritage informs research and practice regardless of national borders. The papers included in this book reflect global perspectives on the conference theme and include thinkers from Australia, Brazil, Canada, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Great Britain, Israel, Slovenia, Turkey, and the United States. In addition the writings of seasoned academics and well published authors, the totems of the field so to speak are situated alongside papers from academic newcomers who have broken the taboo of not speaking in the presence of more experienced company. The central metaphor of this book is the high wire or tightrope journey across Niagara Falls upon which we oscillate between the falsely dichotomous notions of research and teaching. The tension in leaning towards one side or the other is presented as a negotiated process of balancing research and teaching which maintains our progress forward in the field. Overlooking this edgy relationship will cause one to lean too much in one direction and fall into the chasm underneath. Thus the sections of this book are designed to examine educational progress across this high wire while maintaining awareness of the risks taken on this journey. Each paper is relevant to particular phases in this high wire walk and portrays the journeys of the authors within in order to inform the path of others.
