...Dean's artifacts, including a suitcase given to her family by the people of New York after their rescue, are expected to sell for about $5,200 at Saturday's auction in Devizes, western England. Dean, 96, has lived in a nursing home in the southern English city of Southampton, Titanic's home port, since she broke her hip two years ago. "I am not able to live in my home anymore," Dean said. "I am selling it all now because I have to pay these nursing home fees." Dean's items form part of a sale by Henry Aldridge and Son, an auction house that specializes in Titanic memorabilia. Auctioneer Andrew Aldridge said the key item was a small wicker suitcase that was filled with clothes and donated to Dean's surviving family members after the disaster. "They would have carried their little world in this suitcase," Aldridge said yesterday. Dean also is selling letters from the Titanic Relief Fund offering her mother one pound, seven shillings and sixpence a week in compensation. In 1912, baby Elizabeth Gladys "Millvina" Dean and her family were steerage passengers emigrating to Kansas City, Missouri, aboard the giant cruise liner. Four days out of port, on the night of April 14, 1912, it hit an iceberg and sank. Billed as "practically unsinkable" by the publicity magazines of the period, the Titanic did not have enough lifeboats for all of 2,200 passengers and crew. Dean, her mother and 2-year-old brother were among 706 people, mostly women and children, who survived...

...High Cap Players ($8000 - up) Kevin Durant vs. HOU ($10,400) - KD is returning to form and the Rockets are allowing around 40 fantasy points a night to small forwards. Sounds like it could be a big night for Durant if the Rockets can keep it close. LaMarcus Aldridge vs. NYK ($8300) - Coach Popovich gave Aldridge a pep talk before last night's game and paid off (50 fantasy points). I think Aldridge carries that over to his matchup tonight and takes advantage of the Knicks’ power forwards. Mid Cap Players ($5,000-$8,000) Ricky Rubio vs. POR ($7,700) - Rubio has a great matchup tonight against the Portland Trail Blazers, who give up the second most fantasy points per game to point guards. It could be another big night for Rubio Michael Carter-Williams vs. BKN ($7000) - MCW is a pretty safe bet tonight, he has put up at least 28 fantasy points in all of three games this season. Plus, he also faces a bad Nets defense that will likely have issues with his size at point guard....

...store and he began to talk to me about Christopher Columbus and how they are learning that he discovered America in school. He looked at me straight in the eye with a confused face and said “that's not what he did Esme he was a murderer,” he knew this because when my sisters and I would talk about certain aspects of history he was there listening to everything. This was around the same time that we were discussing censorship through school curriculum so I felt that if my little brother understood it then other children could too. When he was talking about this it sounded a lot like the class was learning from a hegemonic device. School is where kids are being taught the “history” of how America came to be a diverse country. Through the course Culture Power and School Knowledge, one can see that the “history” being taught through the Master Narrative is one-sided. The Master Narrative focuses on “history” that comes from the people who hold power therefore excluding the actual experiences of the people of color meaning that it is a hegemonic device. Being a...

Disturbingly, these characters they fantasize about additionally associate physical appearance with personality attributes. Faithful, compassionate women who attract husbands of royal status such as Cinderella are flawless, elegant and acquire a slender frame but on the contrary, evil, malicious villains such as Ursula from the little mermaid remain branded with counterpart features that even though seem more realistic, are seen as immoral. This type of association teaches people that physical appearances are indicative of their personality traits. As children they may not comprehend the effect of stereotypical Disney images in the media, it just outlets with the opportunity to modify the way women are viewed and view themselves.
