Analyzing how gender roles are portrayed in modern Bollywood filmmaking: A Case Study of three recent blockbuster movies: Thappad ‘The Slap’ 2020, Pink 2016, Shubh Mangal Saavdhaan ‘Beware of Marriage’ 2017. The widespread idealization of Bollywood performers by millions of fans results in a significant influence of the films on the values and beliefs of Indian society. The masculine lead in these popular films is typically portrayed as a “superhero” with an extraordinary personality, while the feminine thespians are confined to supporting parts as “beauties” or as selfless mothers, wives, or daughters. Filmmakers have been experimenting with new themes over the past ten years, addressing topics such as political corruption, identity, ambitions, social norms, ethics, and morals. However, sensitive themes like gender and sexuality have been seldom addressed until recently, which I find to be a nice surprise in light of these new trials. Nevertheless, these new Bollywood movies show and may themselves promote changing attitudes towards gender and sexuality through the portrayal of lived and bodily experiences of the protagonist. Bollywood films represent gender-based roles and ideas in…

              Evaluation and Reflection Report   FAITH CHEMELI A00054935 Assessment 4 HEC306 HANNAH RICHMOND TORRENS UNIVERSITY 5/05/24 Evaluation and Reflection Report Introduction Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is a pressing global public health issue. According to Thomas (2023), It is a chronic condition characterized by the body’s inability to effectively use insulin, leading to elevated glucose levels in the blood. This condition poses a significant risk of severe health complications, including heart disease, stroke, kidney failure, and vision problems. The prevalence of T2DM is rising, primarily influenced by modern lifestyle factors such as poor diet, insufficient physical activity, and obesity (Quigley etal., 2022). In light of the escalating challenge of managing and preventing T2DM, our intervention, the “Diabetes Management and Prevention Program” (DMPP), was developed. This program is aimed at adults aged 30 to 60 years who are at high risk of developing T2DM due to factors like prediabetes, obesity, and a family history of diabetes. This demographic was selected based on evidence suggesting that early intervention in these risk groups can significantly reduce…

    Article: Microsoft vs. Amazon the Cloud War (AWS vs. Azure).mp4 Author: ………….   Date: ………….   Mahit Kumar Reddy Majjiga New England Concepts Cloud Computing Concepts Nikhil Deep Ravipati May 5, 2024                     Article Review This article discusses the complex realm of cloud computing. It also examines what these technological behemoths do to win government contracts like Amazon, Microsoft, IBM, Oracle, and Google. Particularly, it discusses the US Department of Defense’s cloud computing systems. This piece focuses on the controversial Jedi contract that was eventually awarded to Microsoft amid accusations of political interference and personal vendettas involving President Trump and Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos. The story begins by showcasing how Amazon pioneered enterprise cloud computing with AWS, which had a huge market share. Nonetheless, this decision seemed strange compared to its position in the industry until then. Many people wondered why they gave it to them instead of another company like Google or IBM, who were also considered frontrunners for this job.

Student’s name Tutor’s name Course Date Analyzing Communication and Conflict in Hemingway’s ‘Hills Like White Elephants In “Hills Like White Elephants,” Ernest Hemingway skillfully engages the reader through minimalist dialogue, symbols and an emblematic locale to unravel the multifaceted nature of communication within a relationship that is faced with a crucial choice. The plot is unfolding by means of a compelling conversation between a couple, the American and Jig, where they talk about an abortion that they have never both accompanied before and has never been mentioned as they develop their relationship. A way of Hemingway’s minimalist dialogue is that readers are allowed to discover and get a sense of intense contradictions through the character’s gestures as well as unspoken words. It is clearer than by direct phrases. Allogeneic details such as the environment and the title “the white elephants” contribute to the tapestry of this story, making it deeply nuanced and expressive in portraying the characters’ inner turmoils and relationships. These literary devices help Hemingway dive into the specifics of how communication—or its absence—affects relationships at its core, emphasizing…

Analysis of FDA Approval for Genetically Engineered Atlantic SalmonTop of Form What is your opinion on the use of genetically modified foods for human consumption? Genetically modified (GM) foods offer many advantages that may be important in addressing some of the world’s biggest issues, such as poverty, malnutrition, and the environmental impact of traditional farming. One of the main benefits is the ability of GM crops to increase food production. Making plants more resistant to pests, diseases, and poor climatic conditions can significantly reduce crop loss while improving output. This is particularly significant in countries where food security is an ongoing problem. In addition, GM technology has the ability to increase the nutritional value of foods. For example, rice can be modified genetically to contain vitamin A, addressing malnutrition in areas where rice is a main food but diets are deficient in important nutrients. Furthermore, GM crops can be engineered to use water more efficiently, which is beneficial for farmers in regions with frequent droughts. Certain GM crops use fewer chemical pesticides and herbicides, which reduces agriculture’s environmental impact. Overall,…

Hobbes’ Perspective On Justice in The State of Nature State of War of Everybody Against Everybody In the book “Leviathan,” Thomas Hobbes describes what he means by humans living in a state of war of everybody against everybody, where there is neither justice nor injustice. According to Hobbes, in the state of nature before the emergence of organized society and government, humans essentially live in a state of perpetual conflict and competition with one another for resources and security. With no common authority to keep people in awe and enforce rules, every individual sees every other as a potential threat. Absence of Justice and Injustice Hobbes argues that without an overarching power to establish order, humans are at all times in a condition of war against one another. This state of war does not just consist of actual physical battles but rather an ongoing state of tension and readiness for violence, as no one can trust that others won’t attack them given the opportunity. With no rules or justice system in place, individuals must rely solely on their strengths and…

  The Pitfalls of Cruise Vacations and Why You Should Reconsider   Student Course Institution Professor Date     The Pitfalls of Cruise Vacations and Why You Should Reconsider Hello Everyone, Picture yourself on a floating city, with all the other people, and not being able to get away from this for a long time, nor have your own space. This is the experience of cruising on a cruise ship, which most often does not reflect the promised beauty.
