will wonder to what extent in their own lives, they, like Edmund, are guilty of blaming others for their own failings. This is exemplified when “Edmund secretly thought that it would not be as good fun for him as for her. He would have to admit that Lucy had been right, before all the others, and he felt sure the others would all be on the side of the Fauns and the animals; but he was already more than half on the side of the Witch” (Lewis 52). Although Edmond initially chooses the wrong side,…

television industry, the values and norms presented, from a bigger picture, are principally similar. One of the many aspects of TV values that has changed is the role of men and women in society.

My earliest memories of literacy take me back to the times I had with my grandmother. I should begin by stating she is not grandma, she is now and forever will be my Oma. As a little girl when my parents were at work, I would spend my days at my grandparents, and in particular with my Oma. I loved it at my grandparents as a child, and I still love being there to this day; it is like my second home. My grandparents live in a house they built on a lake in White Pigeon, Michigan. Every summer I…

I don 't believe I have missed a single "Countdown to Christmas" movie this year on the Hallmark Channel nor its sister network Hallmark Movies & Mysteries. While I have my personal favorites, there is no denying that a massive hit this year was their film A Heavenly Christmas starring Eric McCormack, Kristin Davis, and the legendary Shirley MacClaine. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed this film, and when I discovered that Gregg McBride was the screenwriter for this Yuletide treat, I quickly…

According to the Centers for Disease Control almost half of all teenagers both male and female had sexual intercourse at least once. As per the study conducted by the National Survey of Family Growth children between the ages of fifteen and seventeen are participating in sexual intercourse more frequently than past years.

When she was 15 years old, she convinced her mother to let her attend a prestigious New York City drama school, but despite her strong passion and hunger for the stage, she was shy and much too nervous to draw attention and did not fit in at the drama school. Her professors did not like her and would often make fun of her looks, since she was very tall, awkward and leggy, and they often made fun of her…

When seeing episodes of I love Lucy, she definitely breaks the mold of the typical house wife. In the 1950’s the typical TV family consisted of Caucasian husband, wife and children with little to no diversity. Often the mother devoted to her husband and kids tending to there every need, while the father was away working as the sole income to the family. In many cases there was a clear gender role in the household as women belonged in the house cooking and cleaning, as the men did the outside…
