Gender and children’s movies In this movie, it entails a fairly consistent and well-founded site of research results about gender in relation to an agent of socialization of children’s films. My observation in the store is closely similar to those of other classmates. Children are indeed born in the world of pink and blue. For instance, while I was walking on the department of the store toy aisle, I noted that there is a clear demonstration of the gender divide. There are princesses and dolls meant for girls, while for boys, there are superheroes and vehicles. Hence, classmates’ posts observations are similar to mine where there is gender stereotyping of toys. This is a reflection of the varying interest that boys and girls have or instead the aim of the toy manufacturers, which intend on imposing concerning the gender stereotypes on children.  So, by comparing classmate’s posts and my observations, then it is clear there is gender stereotyping in the stores and toy aisles. The information form the movie concerning gender and children’s movies in which an agent of socialization…

Student’s Name Professor’s Name   Course Date MAGGIE SMITH “GOOD BONES” Life is short, though I keep this from my children. Life is short, and I’ve shortened mine in a thousand delicious, ill-advised ways, a thousand deliciously ill-advised ways I’ll keep from my children. The world is at least fifty percent terrible, and that’s a conservative estimate, though I keep this from my children. For every bird, there is a stone thrown at a bird. For every loved child, a child broken, bagged, sunk in a lake. Life is short, and the world is at least half terrible, and for every kind stranger, there is one who would break you, though I keep this from my children. I am trying to sell them the world.

The exit gate Yesterday I went to my local club to play tennis shots, and the courts were dotted with tens of wazungu kids having fun while their black counterparts watched lugubriously, if that word exists in the first place. I joined the locals in the watching game briefly before walking off in boredom to look for something to chew like any village cow. My wandering brought me to the exit gate, and that’s where I met my nightmare—the security guys at the gate. Being a well brought up son of my mother, I decided to say hi and extend a handshake like a real Luo. Little did I know that in these parts, a handshake meant a commitment to pay them some unknown amounts of money. My courtesy had made me a few coins indebted to them. And the brazenness with which they demand it is so loathsome that my brother George Obbo would whip out his bokarao (hippo hide whip) and reward them with a few lashes. That reminded me of the rise to fame and influence at…

Simply Christian Summary of the chapters Chapter 9: God’s Breath of Life God protects his people and provides an environment where they can serve him well despite potential challenges that sought to limit the focus on moral aspects that improve individual wellbeing. God breathes life into his people through a focus on specific measures that help in promoting personal development and commitment to religious doctrines that emphasize on the path to righteousness (Wright, 2010, p. 121).  The resurrection of Jesus was puzzling even to his followers. It was something that they never thought would happen. However, Jesus maintains that individuals should always have faith. Faith is an essential aspect of religion that helps in attaining extraordinary success in religion (Wright, 2010, p. 125). Jesus affirmed that faith without action is dead, and nobody can enter the kingdom of God without faith.

You still have a choice to believe or not. When you don’t believe in  God, you find yourself in so many troubles and challenges that you are not likely to solve. You also do not have someone to thank in case your life is a success, and too, when you are so low in life, you hate yourself and blame ever5yone.

Residents in India’s capital were consumed by fire claiming over 40 lives with a greater percentage of Muslims and the government rushed to say that it was the effect of violence which is disputed by the critics who say that the deaths were planned to take place.
