The Prophet Mohammad (pbuh) said: "Actions are judged according to the intention behind them, and for…

adventure, and more. As New Yorkers, we are accustomed to this. But, when we leave New York and suffer through a three hour long drive to find a McDonald’s, we really regret taking these facilities for granted. As New Yorkers, we embody the American principle of diversity—we have a little bit of everything from around the world. In my neighborhood alone, there are three different mosques and then a church. There are three South Asian restaurants around the block, a Mexican restaurant…

“The Hammer Principle” is one of the principles for building relationships in Winning with People by John C. Maxwell. As the principal of a school, building relationships must be one of the top priorities. Relationships are the foundation upon which student learning begins.

While reading Katha Pollitt’s essay “The Smurfette Principle” I began to think about my almost two year old niece and how the entertainment she is watching and soaking up will mold her into a young woman one day.
