Sexual Politics Around Teddy Girl Identity
Introduction
The Ted trend during the 1950s corresponds to a transitional time, when popular culture was associated with the working class. This class related
understanding of taste and propriety surrounding the Teds, almost caused Teddy Girls to be written out of history because attention focused on
working class male aggression. Media representation classified teds as a male movement, which provided no female role models to perpetuate the
trend. The Sexual politics around Teddy Girl identity relates to howpopular culture can be used and created by women, but also how academic analysis
approaches this and subsequently situates women in relation to popular culture. Gender and class hierarchy can impose subject and object readings of ...

Photographic evidence (Russell 1955, Mayne 1956) depicts female Teddy Girls, and Horn's research into post–war youth culture shows similar strong
female presence: "A mass observation diary from 1949 described a London dance hall [...] where there was an equal split between male and female"
(2010: 118). Although how widespread this was, is hard to say. The location and dates of the photos show that the women were early–to–mid–1950s
London East End Teds, but Russell's photographs were uncovered in 2006, which demonstrates how lack of resources caused disproportionate
attention to Teddy Boys, further cementing the trend as male. The academic neglect of women in subcultures has been addressed by Garber and
McRobbie (2000). The invisibility of women in popular culture could originate from Hoggart's Uses of Literacy (1957), which situates interest in music
and socialising outside home as a male pastime. Teddy Girls also attract less commentary because, unlike ted boys, the method of transmitting identity
(clothing) did not differ from middle class young women. The violence and aggression of Teddy Boys in marking working class territory (Jefferson
2006: 68) attracted attention, because it directly conflicted with middle class behaviour. So, females were unnoticed and continued to use consumption
of popular culture through clothing and music, to exert cultural identity. Mungham's work focusses on the generational and class aspects within popular
culture and acknowledges

Ban On Immigration Research Paper
A Modest Proposal to Trump Concerning the Ban on Immigration The most recent news coming from Washington is the immigration bill that Donald
Trump has just signed into effect. This places a ban on immigration for anyone that is a citizen or naturalized in Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan,
Syria and Yemen. The problem is that Trump is banning a whole people based upon their country of origin when truly only a very small majority of
the people from there are coming for malicious reasons. Although Trump's administration has tried to understate the importance of this act by
addressing it as a, " 'temporary pause' ", citizens of these seven countries have had their lives in America come to a screeching halt (Kennedy, Merit.

There is a present disdain for the United States in those countries however this is an even larger reason why this ban is simply idiotic. This will
increase tensions and push these countries to develop substantial contempt for the American people. Just because someone said they did not like the
way you built your sandcastle does not mean you have to go and destroy theirs just to prove that yours is better. Educate them. Show them that this way
is beneficial. Or ignore them and prove them wrong through continued success and kindness.
I nominate that we lift the ban and instead make contact with the citizens of those countries to help ease tensions and create an atmosphere of
tolerance. I have been told that I am very good with crafts so I propose that we make goodie bags. Like really good ones. They will be filled with

Reflective Essay About My Mandala
During the past few weeks in Global Perspectives we explored our personal culture, and the influences that shape it. Our task was to create a
mandala: a circular set of symbols that convey the contrast between the sun and shadow sides of our personality. While the sun side is the disposition
other people see, the shadow side captures unseen aspects of our personality. In this reflection, I further examine how I embody the characteristic
behind each symbol and how I came to possess this characteristic. First, on the sun side (right), the uppermost symbol is a firecracker, which
represents my exuberance. Firecrackers are loud, colorful, and unpredictable. Being the youngest of my friends and family, I have always been loud
–craving attention– and achieved it through antics, similar to a firecracker exploding. However, as exciting as some consider firecrackers, to some
they are scary. My loud personality and my never–ending energy sometimes send the wrong impression, and I come off as a little hard to handle.
Though my family was part of the reason I wanted get attention, but I was the one would would rather be noticed all the time, than blend in to the
background, this is why I classify this as something I developed by my free–will. This is the one trait that many people first notice about me, which is

The Unfortunate Case of the Kidnapped Teddy Bear
Lee Fletcher's day started as it usually did– being rudely awoken from his wonderful dreams. Today's happened to be a particularly engaging version
of his arrival at Camp Half–Blood which did not include him screaming for his mother. Luckily, none of the current occupants of his cabin knew the
true sequence of events and so he was able to command a certain degree of respect as Head Counsellor. And by certain, a little. Hey, it was better
than nothing. Lee opened bleary eyes to meet his little sister's blue ones. They were staring at him, unblinking, and appeared to be tearing. Internally
panicking, he forced himself to sit up. He pulled Kayla into what he hoped was a comforting hug. "What up, Kay?" Lee asked, sincerely wishing

Exciting Little Moments That Aren 't Anymore
Exciting Little Moments That Aren't Anymore There were so many fun games that I used to play as a kid. Games like lava monster involved us
jumping and running from one part of a playground to another and making sure we didn't get caught by the lava monster. Tag and freeze tag got
somewhat dangerous because if we got cornered by the person who was "it," we would try to make sure not to get caught ― for example, jumping
off of the play structures to run away. Four square, four corners, waterfall and jump rope were all classic games that we played. Jump rope was a
challenging game. We would sing songs as we jumped rope like "Bubble Gum, Bubble Gum", "Ice Cream Soda", "Miss Mary Mack", or "Cinderella"
and try to get the jumper to miss and even add different challenges to do while you were jumping rope like in "Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear":

Essay On Nina Wang
A Study in female destiny – Nina Wang "If you can actually count your money, then you are not really a rich man."
John Paul Getty,
American entrepreneur,
Quoted by "Observer", 1957
The life of Nina Wang had long enraptured the public. It was the tale of how an ordinary schoolgirl married her childhood boyfriend and became
fabulously wealthy in the process.
Nina Wang was reputed to be one of the wealthiest women in Asia. Although she married, she did not bear any children.
Therefore, it could be said that while she achieved success in life, she did not fulfil the destiny of a female. She did not experience pregnancy and
childbirth.
Nina Wang was born as Kung Yu Sum on 29 September 1936 into a well to do Shanghai business family. She had knownTeddy WangTeh–huei since

However, Teddy's body was never recovered. In 1999, the court declared that he was dead.
That declaration started a probate battle that would eventually reach epic proportions. In 2002, Teddy's father, Wan Din

said to be written by Teddy in 1968. In this will, Teddy had discovered that his wife was cheating on him and it left her with nothing.
Nina Wang countered by producing another will, coincidentally written in 1990 just before Teddy's second kidnapping. In this will, he had written
"One life, one love." He declared that he left her with everything. There were only two witnesses for the will. One was the butler who had died shortly
after Teddy had been declared dead. The other witness was Nina Wang herself.
In late 2002, the High Court ruled that the will produced by Nina Wang was fake. The estate, estimated to be worth $128 million, was given to Teddy's
father. Nina Wang appealed against the ruling but lost in a 2–1 decision on 28 June

Belsinki, Takeo Masaki and Doctor Richtofen, that impressed thousands. With the release of Nacht der Untoten, the first ever zombies map, came the
first ever strategies for a four player or one player experience . Most notably, with Der Riese DLC#4 came the first part of the Call of Duty Zombies
storyline.The Treyarch zombies franchise has one of the largest gaming communities because of the exclusive gameplay mechanics, the genius

Zombies Verruct may have brought the perks, but Shi No Numa brought theWonder Waffe DG–2, and dogs. The innovation that Shi No Numa brought
was truly something else as the four main characters were introduced. One thing that really Shi No Numa stood out for was the Wonder Waffe,
basically a Germen super weapon that shoots lightning. It could take out 10–15 zombies in one bolt, but has an ammo count of 14. The dogs are also
very popular, so popular in fact that they are still in the latest zombies, Black Ops II. Every 5–6 round, the light will dim and the dogs will come attack

sit on the shelf in the department, he wants a new home. One day, a girl named, Lisa, comes along and wants to buy Corduroy, but her mother tells her
no. Her mother says no because she does not want to spend anymore money and that the teddy bear is missing a button. The two major themes of this
book is friendship and hard work. Lisa took one look at Corduroy and knew she wanted to take him home. Unfortunately, her mother would not let
her because she did not have any money and Corduroy was missing a button. Corduroy ventures all over the store in search of his button. He is
dedicated to finding his button, but he is not the only dedicated one. Lisa goes home and empties her piggy bank and her mother lets her bring
Corduroy home. The theme of hard work is shown in Corduroy's determination to find his button and Lisa's determination to bring Corduroy home.
The theme of friendship is between Corduroy and Lisa. They may not know each other, but Lisa still wants to make Corduroy her friend."You must

The following five presidential speeches were written by Woodrow Wilson, Teddy Roosevelt, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Calvin Coolidge, and Ronald
Reagan. In the speeches, the presidents give their perspective on how they believe the government should be run and how citizens should exercise
their individual freedoms. While each president had their own way of saying that American's are free people and that the government needs to
allow them to prosper. Too start off, in Woodrow Wilsons speech, "Socialism and Democracy", Wilson points out the similarities between
socialism and democracies. For example, Wilson says, "For it is very clear that in fundamental theory, socialism and democracy are almost, if not
quite, one and the same." Wilson is showing that in theory there really is no differences between the two governments. However, Wilson goes on to
further explain as to how the people have the freedom and power to become prosperous as individuals. Wilson wants communities to come together
and question the powers of the governments. Wilson believes that in doing this the power will stay in the hands of the people and not allow the
government to become overbearing. The next speech written by Teddy Roosevelt is called "The New Nationalism". In "The New Nationalism",

Children are the freshman in this world. They are discovering the world, and at the same time, themselves. In their early stages of exploration positive
and negative experiences are gained, in which they approach different methods to manage their emotions and learn from them. In the reading,
Transitional Objects as Objectifiers of the Self in Toddlers and Adolescents by Johanna K. Tabin, the author mentions that the bond created between
toys and children helps them obtain power to transition from one frightful life situation to another. Likewise, Elena O. Smirnova, the writer of
Character toys as psychological tools, explains that a child 's self–reflects on their persona by communicating with a toy; thus, these toys are called
character toys. Both writers agreed that toys play a major role in the construction of children's sense of self. Additionally, these authors also implied that
there are special toys that children connect to. Carmen Rosa Caldas–Coulthard and Theo Van Leeuwen argued, inTeddy Bear Stories, that children are
mostly attracted to teddy bears because of its physicality and similar behavior. Thus, teddy bears are commonly children's favorite toy of choice, which

Giant Dreams, Midget Abilities Essay
David Sedaris writes about his experience taking guitar lessons in "Giant Dreams, Midget Abilities" after his father decided that he and his younger
sisters should start a family music group. However, Sedaris has no desire to learn how to play guitar. His desire lies within singing jingles in the voice
of Billie Holiday. Sedaris' desire to sing in the voice of Billie Holiday is probably closely related to his sexual orientation, being gay, and his father's
passion for jazz music.
There is an implication of femininity in Sedaris' desire to mimic Billie Holiday's voice. Billie Holiday was an American jazz singer whose career took
off in the 1930s. Some would find it peculiar as to why any young boy would want to imitate the voice of ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
I'd done my solo and would now move on to pursue other equally unsuccessful ways of getting attention." Singing in the voice of Billie Holiday
seemed to be one of the few ways Sedaris thought he could express his feminine side comfortably. Unfortunately for him, being shot down by Mancini
caused him to dispose of such a dream.
Sedaris' desire to sing like Billie Holiday can also be linked to his father's passion for jazz music. His father loved jazz music almost to the point of
obsessive–compulsiveness, where he'd sit down and analyze each note and the timing of the jazz songs playing on his record player, and although
Sedaris claims to also love jazz, it wasn't enough to convince his father. "Because it was the music we'd grown up with, I liked to think that my
sisters and I had a genuine appreciation of jazz. We preferred it over the music our friends were listening to, yet nothing we did or said could
convince my father of our devotion," (p. 17) writes Sedaris. Singing like Billie Holiday might have been a way for Sedaris to be closer to his
father, or at least allow the two of them to bond in a way based on a common interest. Because of the controversy about homosexuals, Sedaris
probably wasn't open about his sexuality with his father, thus not feeling close to him. In singing in the style of Billie Holiday, one could assume that
it could be appreciated by any lover of jazz, such as

entirely clear how she would be able to recreate the exact same spot where Danny is.
The teddy bear is a nice plant and symbolic of the parents' inner conflict. It's a nice visual reminder of Danny. The use of the teddy bear also
provides for a clever payoff when Amelia find finds the thumb drive. However, one small note about the Teddy Bear. It might be more emotionally

My Dream Short Story
Last night I had the craziest dream. I went to fell asleep while watching "The Gift". It was around midnight when I fell asleep and that is when my
weird dream occurred. I arrived at the carnival early in the evening. I purchased my ticket for the ferris wheel, along with my sister, Clara. We
proceeded to wait in line. The line was about a 2 hour wait. We waited in the line, which felt like eternity. It was finally our turn. We had both stepped
onto the ferris wheel with caution. I had a bad fear of heights and so did my sister. Clara set down her purple teddy bear next to her that she had just
won in the ring toss. As the ferris wheel began to turn, I pulled out my polaroid camera to take some pictures. I snapped a picture of Clara and I at
the very top of the ferris wheel. The picture came out of the camera and I shook it to get it to dry faster. It actually came out pretty good. I slid the
picture inside the pocket on the teddybears' t–shirt. The t–shirt was a pretty baby pink shirt with tiny white polka–dots. Suddenly the ferris wheel to
rock back and forth. Clara and I started to panic. A man got on the loudspeaker "We seem to be having some technical difficulties, the ride will

Rhetorical Uses In Advertising : The Use Of Advertising
Everywhere we go we are surrounded by billboards, radio ads, television commercials and all sorts of other types of advertisements. We may not
acknowledge it, but these advertisements have a subconscious effect on us in our everyday lives. They leave a jingle or a thought in the back of our
mind, something that gets stuck in our heads and causes us to think about it all day long. One thing that is prevalent in almost all advertisements today
is the use of pathos, or emotional appeal to the audience, but is that all there is to it?
When you think of batteries, it's not very likely that the first thing that comes into your mind is family, teddy bears or the military. This specificDuracell
battery commercial is portraying just that. It starts with a father who, we assume, is abroad in another country, far from his family. He is inserting
batteries into a big soft teddy bear, then he records his voice saying something into the bear and sends it to his daughter who ends up loving it a lot
and taking it everywhere with her. At the end of the advertisement the father appears in person and the story ends happily ever after. It doesn't sound
like the average battery commercial, does it? This commercial uses its rhetorical opportunity wisely and makes a big impact on many American citizens
at the time.
Rhetorical opportunity is key when you are trying to get your point across. This advertisement used its rhetorical opportunity very well. They knew that

Descriptive Essay About New York City
"Looks like I didn't iron well enough last night. A wrinkle in my suit. A wrinkle in my best suit! Everyone will notice! I'll be the laughing stock of
New York City!" Mr. Stevens stopped to inspect his crisp black suit and tie. "And on my important meeting day, too." He grumbled to himself. "The
convention! Can't miss it, can't miss it, can't miss it!" With that, he resumed his hurried walk down the grubby streets of New York City. The sidewalks
were marked with blue benches that appeared along the side of the sidewalk at regular intervals. Each bench was covered in rows of holes, but you
couldn't really tell because when you looked around, practically all you saw were mobs of people, people milling around, people sitting on the
benches, and more people. This was rush hour in this part of New York City.
To Mr. Stevens' right there was Central Park, and to his left were big gleaming grey buildings that seemed to glower down on all the people. The
most noticeable thing was the smell. Sewer smell was dominant, and sometimes overwhelming (If you passed a drain or one of those trashy, creepy,
dark alleys), but since people were all around, you could also smell food, perfume, makeup, lotion, and other scented products. All of the city and

Symbolism In Salinger's The Catcher In The Rye
Salinger dispels common binary meanings assigned by society to many concepts, displaying the spectrum of ways people can feel or react to any
situation. As seen in The Catcher in the Rye, Holden often shifts between roles such as the "catcher", one who guards the innocence of youth, and the
"caught", the embodiment of youthful purity that must be protected. Salinger uses shifts of clothing as a recurring motif to "signify shifts of position
and destinies" (Takeuchi), emphasizing how one's role in life can be fluid, not static. Throughout his journey, Holden Caulfield, the main protagonist
and narrator of Catcher in the Rye, exhibits this through clothing such as his red hunting hat. Holden claims this hat to be a "people shooting
hat"(Catcher in the Rye), representing his role as the "catcher" who seeks to hunt down the purity of childhood in other humans, not animals. Holden
perceives Phoebe as perfect, constantly contrasting her the the "phonies" he meets. In doing so, Salinger denotes Phoebe as the ideal Holden seeks.
Despite his hat denoting him as the catcher at first , Holden will at times adorn it, at others conceal it, or even transfer it to Phoebe, along with its
connotative meanings. By doing this, Holden entirely diverts the traditional distinction, made by western society, between those who hunt, seek, or
catch other animals, to the prey they chase, and instead shows how Holden seeks to preserve childhood innocence, yet, at times, needs the support of
his sister when he is devastated. Holden's role as the "catcher" is constantly changing and cannot be confined to the single definition that Holden
himself creates for the "catcher in the rye" as the person who only protects children from danger, but rather, must not be seen as an absolute. Holden
himself realizes this at the climax of the books as he watches Phoebe ride the carousel and comments that "if they fall off, they fall off, but it's bad if
you say anything to them" even though it contradicts his previous claim that he wants to stop children from failing in any way (Weesner) as the catcher
in the Rye.
Salinger also creates ambiguity between the roles of mature adults and innocent children through Holden, who is an adolescent that embodies

Teenage Subcultures
Fashions it a Way of expressing freedom? Or is it an expression of rebellion?
This essay which I would explore is the subculture and expression of teenagers in the late 1950,s known as mods and rockers. The Mods and Rockers
rebelled to get recognised out from the crowd. The problems are being seen around that period, with the subcultures in Britain, as teenagers wanted to
be different from their parent's way of fashion to partying and to get recognised. The conflict included discussion on social norms but also
symbolised fashion freedom. While the approach of the groups may not have been ideal, due to the chaos caused by the two groups, many of them
were jailed. The fashion that distinguished each of the groups consisted of suits and smart dressing by the mods, who were working class. Rockers
style of dressing, jeans, and leather jackets informed as down market conversely, it has also been utilised as a statement of freedom by those oppressed
by government, establishments or regimes. It has also been utilised as a statement of liberty by those oppressed by government, institutions or systems.
Buxbaum discusses the idea of fashion as a "social phenomenon" which links comprehensively to the Mods and Rockers phenomenon. This period
gave way to incredible advancement in fashion identity and the economy of fashion. It provides details of certain motivations held by the youth at the
time which helps explain some of the shocking sights seen by the British public, and indeed the

Positive Behavior Strategies For Children And Junior Schools
The Chapter 12 article focuses on positive behavior strategies to eliminate bullying through activities for infants and junior schools. Creating a safe
classroom environment will allow teachers to instruct their students in an efficient and effective manner. Unfortunately, bullying is predominant in
schools where the different forms of aggression are learned. When bullying occurs, developing strategies are essential to address the issues. When smart
and stupid behavior is analyzed, it's important to use the proper vocabulary to avoid any misunderstandings where certain words can be mistakenly
taken out of context. When educators speak to children, it's vital to use the proper terminology without belittling the student. Additionally, when
children are labeled negatively, they may lack confidence which can be damaging psychologically. Furthermore, depending on the action, students can
bring fresh ideas on suggesting penalties and privileges to prevent bullying. Moreover, influence is a major factor when peer groups can affect other
students to change their behavior.
Even though acceptance and approval is not dependent on academic achievement, pupils with learning difficulties earn praise for themselves and
privileges for their classmates. When pupils earn privileges for their classmate, they can influence other students to behave in a positive manner. Some
of the smart behaviors the students listed are helping others with their work, remembering to say please and thank you,

Vermont Teddy Bear Company : Organization Overview

Vermont Teddy Bear Company
Organization Overview – Background Vermont Teddy Bear was founded by John Sortino, who began selling plush bears from a mall kiosk in
Burlington and a few years later turned the company into a multi–million dollar business. Throughout the years, VTB has had some major successes,
such as the implementation of its 'Bear–Gram' service, which allows customers to call a toll–free number and order a personalized bear. In addition,
VTB has expanded beyond teddy bears and into other successful managed brands like flower delivery and clothing (pajamas). However, the company
has also faced some adversity after going public including off–seasonal jams, partnership failures (Zany Brain), and a rise in competitors, which has
reflected in VTB's overall market share. Since then VTB has repurchased its stock. Vision Statement
The CEO of VTB, John Gilbert recently returned from American International Toy Fair and met with CIO, Bob Stetzel, to discuss the vision of the
company. Gilbert mentioned that there had been a lot of interest in classic toys. He also highlighted the need for VTB to be able to satisfy all their
orders, should a product's popularity suddenly spike. Their main vision for the company was to propel their products to sell beyond seasonal dates and
current target audiences in order to smooth the peaks and to be regarded by their customers as the 'best high–end gift business in the country.'

As Curry took their home ice on Saturday night, they were greeted by a crowd full of fans looking to donate one of their teddy bears to a child in

Not to mention, Curry had some added pressure at the start of this matchup. With the Teddy Bear Toss taking place, all the bears get thrown onto the
ice when the Colonels score their first goal of the game. Due to this being such a highly anticipated event, it's no surprise the team wanted to come out
firing.
It would only take 7:08 for Curry to score their first goal of the game in the opening period. Junior forward Adam Valadao would send a scorching
slapshot into the back of the net, thanks to a flawless pass from defensemen Jarret Kup. It would mark Valadao's third goal of the season, and Kup's
third assist. Curry's Ryan Fitzgerald would also be credited with an assist on the play.
Senior forward Tyler Vankleef would extended Curry's lead to two with 2:14 remaining in the first period. Using some nifty stickhandling skills,
Vankleef was able to sneak it past Wildcat goalie Joey Ballmer for his CCC leading 11th goal of the season. Fellow senior center Jake Heisinger and

The Correlation Between Looking Preferences And Reaching...
This current study has been formulated on the basis that infants 2 years of age, and even below, have the cognitive capacity to express preference when
manipulating objects. Previous research which has been observed shares similar concepts with this current study. This study, conducted by Christopher
Newman, Janette Atkinston, and Oliver Braddick (2001) in which the relationship between looking preferences and reaching was explored in infants
5–15 months' old infants. To be more specific, they used preferential reaching between objects of different sizes in infants of different ages to explain
the dissociation in the development of visual processing and orientation in object manipulation. The infants were presented with cylinders of different
sizes, a small, medium, and large cylinder was presented for the infants to interact with. According to Newman, Atkinson and Braddick (2001), "The
largest object was too large for the younger infants to grasp easily with one hand" (p. 563), and this had most likely had a role to play in the preference
of the infants. In regards to the results of the study, Newman, Atkinson and Braddick (2001) found "Infants of all ages in this experiment reached
almost compulsively for objects presented to them. However, although 5–8'/2–month–old infants showed no preference when reaching to objects of
different sizes, 8'/2–12–month–old infants showed a strong preference for smaller objects" (p. 568). "It is likely, therefore, that this effect

Sexual Politics Around Teddy Girl Identity

  • 1. Sexual Politics Around Teddy Girl Identity Introduction The Ted trend during the 1950s corresponds to a transitional time, when popular culture was associated with the working class. This class related understanding of taste and propriety surrounding the Teds, almost caused Teddy Girls to be written out of history because attention focused on working class male aggression. Media representation classified teds as a male movement, which provided no female role models to perpetuate the trend. The Sexual politics around Teddy Girl identity relates to howpopular culture can be used and created by women, but also how academic analysis approaches this and subsequently situates women in relation to popular culture. Gender and class hierarchy can impose subject and object readings of ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Photographic evidence (Russell 1955, Mayne 1956) depicts female Teddy Girls, and Horn's research into post–war youth culture shows similar strong female presence: "A mass observation diary from 1949 described a London dance hall [...] where there was an equal split between male and female" (2010: 118). Although how widespread this was, is hard to say. The location and dates of the photos show that the women were early–to–mid–1950s London East End Teds, but Russell's photographs were uncovered in 2006, which demonstrates how lack of resources caused disproportionate attention to Teddy Boys, further cementing the trend as male. The academic neglect of women in subcultures has been addressed by Garber and McRobbie (2000). The invisibility of women in popular culture could originate from Hoggart's Uses of Literacy (1957), which situates interest in music and socialising outside home as a male pastime. Teddy Girls also attract less commentary because, unlike ted boys, the method of transmitting identity (clothing) did not differ from middle class young women. The violence and aggression of Teddy Boys in marking working class territory (Jefferson 2006: 68) attracted attention, because it directly conflicted with middle class behaviour. So, females were unnoticed and continued to use consumption of popular culture through clothing and music, to exert cultural identity. Mungham's work focusses on the generational and class aspects within popular culture and acknowledges ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 2. Ban On Immigration Research Paper A Modest Proposal to Trump Concerning the Ban on Immigration The most recent news coming from Washington is the immigration bill that Donald Trump has just signed into effect. This places a ban on immigration for anyone that is a citizen or naturalized in Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen. The problem is that Trump is banning a whole people based upon their country of origin when truly only a very small majority of the people from there are coming for malicious reasons. Although Trump's administration has tried to understate the importance of this act by addressing it as a, " 'temporary pause' ", citizens of these seven countries have had their lives in America come to a screeching halt (Kennedy, Merit. NPR.org). The United States was built on the hard work and desperation of ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... There is a present disdain for the United States in those countries however this is an even larger reason why this ban is simply idiotic. This will increase tensions and push these countries to develop substantial contempt for the American people. Just because someone said they did not like the way you built your sandcastle does not mean you have to go and destroy theirs just to prove that yours is better. Educate them. Show them that this way is beneficial. Or ignore them and prove them wrong through continued success and kindness. I nominate that we lift the ban and instead make contact with the citizens of those countries to help ease tensions and create an atmosphere of tolerance. I have been told that I am very good with crafts so I propose that we make goodie bags. Like really good ones. They will be filled with objects and miscellaneous gifts that are proven to put people in good moods. To further the value of these gift I have consulted an expert in chocolate and sweets, my mother Jan. She recites, through her decades of experience and experimental endeavors, that ...

  • 8. Reflective Essay About My Mandala During the past few weeks in Global Perspectives we explored our personal culture, and the influences that shape it. Our task was to create a mandala: a circular set of symbols that convey the contrast between the sun and shadow sides of our personality. While the sun side is the disposition other people see, the shadow side captures unseen aspects of our personality. In this reflection, I further examine how I embody the characteristic behind each symbol and how I came to possess this characteristic. First, on the sun side (right), the uppermost symbol is a firecracker, which represents my exuberance. Firecrackers are loud, colorful, and unpredictable. Being the youngest of my friends and family, I have always been loud –craving attention– and achieved it through antics, similar to a firecracker exploding. However, as exciting as some consider firecrackers, to some they are scary. My loud personality and my never–ending energy sometimes send the wrong impression, and I come off as a little hard to handle. Though my family was part of the reason I wanted get attention, but I was the one would would rather be noticed all the time, than blend in to the background, this is why I classify this as something I developed by my free–will. This is the one trait that many people first notice about me, which is why I think... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

  • 10. The Unfortunate Case of the Kidnapped Teddy Bear Lee Fletcher's day started as it usually did– being rudely awoken from his wonderful dreams. Today's happened to be a particularly engaging version of his arrival at Camp Half–Blood which did not include him screaming for his mother. Luckily, none of the current occupants of his cabin knew the true sequence of events and so he was able to command a certain degree of respect as Head Counsellor. And by certain, a little. Hey, it was better than nothing. Lee opened bleary eyes to meet his little sister's blue ones. They were staring at him, unblinking, and appeared to be tearing. Internally panicking, he forced himself to sit up. He pulled Kayla into what he hoped was a comforting hug. "What up, Kay?" Lee asked, sincerely wishing 'nothing'. "Will and Michael won't listen to me. They're fighting again." Kayla looked up at him imploringly. He shifted his shoulders uncomfortably. "Yeah? How about we just let them fin–" He was interrupted by a resounding crash from the front of the cabin, followed by an exclamation of 'Oh, you are soo in trouble!' Lee licked his lips. To intervene or not to intervene. That was the– "ME? YOU WERE THE ONE WHO DID IT, YOU DIPSTICK!" Another crash. This one was accompanied by the sound of splintering wood. "Intervene, intervene!"

  • 11. Exciting Little Moments That Aren 't Anymore Exciting Little Moments That Aren't Anymore There were so many fun games that I used to play as a kid. Games like lava monster involved us jumping and running from one part of a playground to another and making sure we didn't get caught by the lava monster. Tag and freeze tag got somewhat dangerous because if we got cornered by the person who was "it," we would try to make sure not to get caught ― for example, jumping off of the play structures to run away. Four square, four corners, waterfall and jump rope were all classic games that we played. Jump rope was a challenging game. We would sing songs as we jumped rope like "Bubble Gum, Bubble Gum", "Ice Cream Soda", "Miss Mary Mack", or "Cinderella" and try to get the jumper to miss and even add different challenges to do while you were jumping rope like in "Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear": Teddy bear, teddy bear, Turn around. Teddy bear, teddy bear, Touch the ground. Nowadays, it's pretty much just sitting there with a piece of technology right in front of me. In my free time, I used to frequently go outside to play at the park, with my rabbits, read, watch TV, or play with legos.

  • 12. Essay On Nina Wang A Study in female destiny – Nina Wang "If you can actually count your money, then you are not really a rich man." John Paul Getty, American entrepreneur, Quoted by "Observer", 1957 The life of Nina Wang had long enraptured the public. It was the tale of how an ordinary schoolgirl married her childhood boyfriend and became fabulously wealthy in the process. Nina Wang was reputed to be one of the wealthiest women in Asia. Although she married, she did not bear any children. Therefore, it could be said that while she achieved success in life, she did not fulfil the destiny of a female. She did not experience pregnancy and childbirth. Nina Wang was born as Kung Yu Sum on 29 September 1936 into a well to do Shanghai business family. She had knownTeddy WangTeh–huei since childhood.

That declaration started a probate battle that would eventually reach epic proportions. In 2002, Teddy's father, Wan Din –shin, produced a will that was said to be written by Teddy in 1968. In this will, Teddy had discovered that his wife was cheating on him and it left her with nothing. Nina Wang countered by producing another will, coincidentally written in 1990 just before Teddy's second kidnapping. In this will, he had written "One life, one love." He declared that he left her with everything. There were only two witnesses for the will. One was the butler who had died shortly after Teddy had been declared dead. The other witness was Nina Wang herself. In late 2002, the High Court ruled that the will produced by Nina Wang was fake. The estate, estimated to be worth $128 million, was given to Teddy's father.

Corduroy no longer wants to sit on the shelf in the department, he wants a new home. One day, a girl named, Lisa, comes along and wants to buy Corduroy, but her mother tells her no.

Roosevelt, Calvin Coolidge, and Ronald Reagan. In the speeches, the presidents give their perspective on how they believe the government should be run and how citizens should exercise their individual freedoms. While each president had their own way of saying that American's are free people and that the government needs to allow them to prosper. Too start off, in Woodrow Wilsons speech, "Socialism and Democracy", Wilson points out the similarities between socialism and democracies. For example, Wilson says, "For it is very clear that in fundamental theory, socialism and democracy are almost, if not quite, one and the same." Wilson is showing that in theory there really is no differences between the two governments. However, Wilson goes on to further explain as to how the people have the freedom and power to become prosperous as individuals.

They are discovering the world, and at the same time, themselves. In their early stages of exploration positive and negative experiences are gained, in which they approach different methods to manage their emotions and learn from them. In the reading, Transitional Objects as Objectifiers of the Self in Toddlers and Adolescents by Johanna K. Tabin, the author mentions that the bond created between toys and children helps them obtain power to transition from one frightful life situation to another. Likewise, Elena O. Smirnova, the writer of Character toys as psychological tools, explains that a child 's self–reflects on their persona by communicating with a toy; thus, these toys are called character toys. Both writers agreed that toys play a major role in the construction of children's sense of self. Additionally, these authors also implied that there are special toys that children connect to.

  • 18. Giant Dreams, Midget Abilities Essay David Sedaris writes about his experience taking guitar lessons in "Giant Dreams, Midget Abilities" after his father decided that he and his younger sisters should start a family music group. However, Sedaris has no desire to learn how to play guitar. His desire lies within singing jingles in the voice of Billie Holiday. Sedaris' desire to sing in the voice of Billie Holiday is probably closely related to his sexual orientation, being gay, and his father's passion for jazz music. There is an implication of femininity in Sedaris' desire to mimic Billie Holiday's voice. Billie Holiday was an American jazz singer whose career took off in the 1930s.

I'd done my solo and would now move on to pursue other equally unsuccessful ways of getting attention." Singing in the voice of Billie Holiday seemed to be one of the few ways Sedaris thought he could express his feminine side comfortably. Unfortunately for him, being shot down by Mancini caused him to dispose of such a dream. Sedaris' desire to sing like Billie Holiday can also be linked to his father's passion for jazz music. His father loved jazz music almost to the point of obsessive–compulsiveness, where he'd sit down and analyze each note and the timing of the jazz songs playing on his record player, and although Sedaris claims to also love jazz, it wasn't enough to convince his father. "Because it was the music we'd grown up with, I liked to think that my sisters and I had a genuine appreciation of jazz. We preferred it over the music our friends were listening to, yet nothing we did or said could convince my father of our devotion," (p. 17) writes Sedaris. Singing like Billie Holiday might have been a way for Sedaris to be closer to his father, or at least allow the two of them to bond in a way based on a common interest. Because of the controversy about homosexuals, Sedaris probably wasn't open about his sexuality with his father, thus not feeling close to him.

I arrived at the carnival early in the evening. I purchased my ticket for the ferris wheel, along with my sister, Clara. We proceeded to wait in line. The line was about a 2 hour wait. We waited in the line, which felt like eternity. It was finally our turn. We had both stepped onto the ferris wheel with caution. I had a bad fear of heights and so did my sister. Clara set down her purple teddy bear next to her that she had just won in the ring toss. As the ferris wheel began to turn, I pulled out my polaroid camera to take some pictures. I snapped a picture of Clara and I at the very top of the ferris wheel. The picture came out of the camera and I shook it to get it to dry faster. It actually came out pretty good. I slid the picture inside the pocket on the teddybears' t–shirt. The t–shirt was a pretty baby pink shirt with tiny white polka–dots. Suddenly the ferris wheel to rock back and forth.

One thing that is prevalent in almost all advertisements today is the use of pathos, or emotional appeal to the audience, but is that all there is to it?

  • 30. Symbolism In Salinger's The Catcher In The Rye Salinger dispels common binary meanings assigned by society to many concepts, displaying the spectrum of ways people can feel or react to any situation. As seen in The Catcher in the Rye, Holden often shifts between roles such as the "catcher", one who guards the innocence of youth, and the "caught", the embodiment of youthful purity that must be protected. Salinger uses shifts of clothing as a recurring motif to "signify shifts of position and destinies" (Takeuchi), emphasizing how one's role in life can be fluid, not static. Throughout his journey, Holden Caulfield, the main protagonist and narrator of Catcher in the Rye, exhibits this through clothing such as his red hunting hat. Holden claims this hat to be a "people shooting hat"(Catcher in the Rye), representing his role as the "catcher" who seeks to hunt down the purity of childhood in other humans, not animals. Holden perceives Phoebe as perfect, constantly contrasting her the the "phonies" he meets. In doing so, Salinger denotes Phoebe as the ideal Holden seeks. Despite his hat denoting him as the catcher at first , Holden will at times adorn it, at others conceal it, or even transfer it to Phoebe, along with its connotative meanings. By doing this, Holden entirely diverts the traditional distinction, made by western society, between those who hunt, seek, or catch other animals, to the prey they chase, and instead shows how Holden seeks to preserve childhood innocence, yet, at times, needs the support of his sister when he is devastated. Holden's role as the "catcher" is constantly changing and cannot be confined to the single definition that Holden himself creates for the "catcher in the rye" as the person who only protects children from danger, but rather, must not be seen as an absolute. Holden himself realizes this at the climax of the books as he watches Phoebe ride the carousel and comments that "if they fall off, they fall off, but it's bad if you say anything to them" even though it contradicts his previous claim that he wants to stop children from failing in any way (Weesner) as the catcher in the Rye. Salinger also creates ambiguity between the roles of mature adults and innocent children through Holden, who is an adolescent that embodies ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

The problems are being seen around that period, with the subcultures in Britain, as teenagers wanted to be different from their parent's way of fashion to partying and to get recognised. The conflict included discussion on social norms but also symbolised fashion freedom. While the approach of the groups may not have been ideal, due to the chaos caused by the two groups, many of them were jailed. The fashion that distinguished each of the groups consisted of suits and smart dressing by the mods, who were working class.

  • 33. Positive Behavior Strategies For Children And Junior Schools The Chapter 12 article focuses on positive behavior strategies to eliminate bullying through activities for infants and junior schools. Creating a safe classroom environment will allow teachers to instruct their students in an efficient and effective manner. Unfortunately, bullying is predominant in schools where the different forms of aggression are learned. When bullying occurs, developing strategies are essential to address the issues. When smart and stupid behavior is analyzed, it's important to use the proper vocabulary to avoid any misunderstandings where certain words can be mistakenly taken out of context. When educators speak to children, it's vital to use the proper terminology without belittling the student. Additionally, when children are labeled negatively, they may lack confidence which can be damaging psychologically. Furthermore, depending on the action, students can bring fresh ideas on suggesting penalties and privileges to prevent bullying. Moreover, influence is a major factor when peer groups can affect other students to change their behavior. Even though acceptance and approval is not dependent on academic achievement, pupils with learning difficulties earn praise for themselves and privileges for their classmates. When pupils earn privileges for their classmate, they can influence other students to behave in a positive manner. Some of the smart behaviors the students listed are helping others with their work, remembering to say please and thank you, ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

  • 35. The Night The walls of the shaft violently shuddered, the ground shook, rocks tumbled and a deep rumbling sound filled my ears. The workers around me were yelling and running to safety, I ran too but I realised I had to go back and get it, I just had too. I blacked out and was awoken by Jim, he was shaking me, trying to get me back to consciousness. It felt like I was paralysed, I couldn't move or talk. I looked around in a haze, there was no one in sight, all I could feel was the agonising pain in my leg. I looked down to my leg wrapped in a jacket, covered in blood. When I finally regained function I was bombarded by Jim questioning "why would you do that Robbie, why would you run into danger?", I just stared blankly in response. "We are stuck in here, the rest got out, why would you go back?" he asked angrily. I replied with "I had to get this" while looking down to the small ratty teddy bear I held in the calloused palm of my hand. The day my sweet daughter gifted me with that bear will forever be embedded in my memory. It all started on a cloudy day in May, I walked up the path to my home surrounded by limp and lifeless tulips and could not help but smirk at our resemblance. I had been out of work for seven months, applying for hundreds of jobs, yet to be successful. I was depressed and angry that I was not able to help my family, we were struggling and I was the root of the cause.

  • 39. Vermont Teddy Bear Company : Organization Overview Andres Galban Vermont Teddy Bear Company Organization Overview – Background Vermont Teddy Bear was founded by John Sortino, who began selling plush bears from a mall kiosk in Burlington and a few years later turned the company into a multi–million dollar business. Throughout the years, VTB has had some major successes, such as the implementation of its 'Bear–Gram' service, which allows customers to call a toll–free number and order a personalized bear. In addition, VTB has expanded beyond teddy bears and into other successful managed brands like flower delivery and clothing (pajamas). However, the company has also faced some adversity after going public including off–seasonal jams, partnership failures (Zany Brain), and a rise in competitors, which has reflected in VTB's overall market share. Since then VTB has repurchased its stock. Vision Statement The CEO of VTB, John Gilbert recently returned from American International Toy Fair and met with CIO, Bob Stetzel, to discuss the vision of the company. Gilbert mentioned that there had been a lot of interest in classic toys. He also highlighted the need for VTB to be able to satisfy all their orders, should a product's popularity suddenly spike. Their main vision for the company was to propel their products to sell beyond seasonal dates and current target audiences in order to smooth the peaks and to be regarded by their customers as the 'best high–end gift business in the country.'

  • 41. Descriptive Essay 'Teddy Bear Toss' As Curry took their home ice on Saturday night, they were greeted by a crowd full of fans looking to donate one of their teddy bears to a child in need. The Colonels immediately gave thanks to many of the children in the stands, who were excited to see the home team make a splash during the third annual Teddy Bear Toss. By the end of the night, it felt like almost every kid in attendance got the chance to take home a souvenir puck from one of the players. Once the pregame festivities came to a conclusion though, Curry seemed to direct their focus right back on Commonwealth Coast Conference opponent Johnson and Wales University. The Colonels had been coming off a dominant four –game winning streak, and were looking to extend it at Urlin Memorial Rink. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Not to mention, Curry had some added pressure at the start of this matchup. With the Teddy Bear Toss taking place, all the bears get thrown onto the ice when the Colonels score their first goal of the game. Due to this being such a highly anticipated event, it's no surprise the team wanted to come out firing. It would only take 7:08 for Curry to score their first goal of the game in the opening period. Junior forward Adam Valadao would send a scorching slapshot into the back of the net, thanks to a flawless pass from defensemen Jarret Kup. It would mark Valadao's third goal of the season, and Kup's third assist. Curry's Ryan Fitzgerald would also be credited with an assist on the play. Senior forward Tyler Vankleef would extended Curry's lead to two with 2:14 remaining in the first period. Using some nifty stickhandling skills, Vankleef was able to sneak it past Wildcat goalie Joey Ballmer for his CCC leading 11th goal of the season.

  • 42. The Correlation Between Looking Preferences And Reaching... This current study has been formulated on the basis that infants 2 years of age, and even below, have the cognitive capacity to express preference when manipulating objects. Previous research which has been observed shares similar concepts with this current study. This study, conducted by Christopher Newman, Janette Atkinston, and Oliver Braddick (2001) in which the relationship between looking preferences and reaching was explored in infants 5–15 months' old infants. To be more specific, they used preferential reaching between objects of different sizes in infants of different ages to explain the dissociation in the development of visual processing and orientation in object manipulation. The infants were presented with cylinders of different sizes, a small, medium, and large cylinder was presented for the infants to interact with. According to Newman, Atkinson and Braddick (2001), "The largest object was too large for the younger infants to grasp easily with one hand" (p. 563), and this had most likely had a role to play in the preference of the infants. In regards to the results of the study, Newman, Atkinson and Braddick (2001) found "Infants of all ages in this experiment reached almost compulsively for objects presented to them. However, although 5–8'/2–month–old infants showed no preference when reaching to objects of different sizes, 8'/2–12–month–old infants showed a strong preference for smaller objects" (p. 568).
