 Using a young readers  novel call stanley cup ed  The Misfits  as its centerpiece, middle schools nationwide will participate in a  No Name-Calling Week  initiative starting Monday. The program, now in its second year, has the backing of groups from the Girl Scouts to Amnesty International but has also drawn complaints that it overemphasizes harassment of gay youths.The initiative was developed by the New York-based Gay, Lesbian  Straight Education Network, which seeks to ensure that schools safely accommodate students of all sexual orientations. GLSEN worked with James Howe, the openly gay author of  The Misfits  and many other popular children s books. Gay students aren t the only kids targeted - this isn t about special rights for them,  Howe said.  But the fact is that  faggot  is probably the most common insult at schools.  The Misfits stanley uk   deals with four much-taunted middle schoolers - one of them gay - who run for the student council on a platform advocating an end to nasty name-calling.GLSEN is unsure how many schools will participate in this week s event, but says 5,100 educators from 36 states have registered, up from 4,000 l stanley mugs ast year. Participation in a related writing-music-art contest rose from 100 students last year to 1,600 this year; the winning poem was written by Sue Anna Yeh, a 13-year-old from Sugar Land, Texas.         No Name-calling Week  takes aim at insults of all kinds - whether based on a child s appearance, background or behavior.

Inside this house, doors would open and shut, spirits attacked the family and eventually possessed the mother, trying to get her to kill her children. This was all due to the former owner of the property, an angry witch who cursed the land. Eventually the Warrens would clear the house. Another important figure in this movie is the Annabelle doll. A remnant from an older case, the Annabelle doll is allegedly possessed and the Warrens now have her locked in their museum of demonic and possessed items to keep her safe. In the movie, this doll would be placed in one room, and then wind up in another. Thrown away in the trash, it would then reappear inside the owner   home.
