American Graffiti (1973) produced by Frances Ford Coppola, written and directed by George Lucas, is a nostalgic period piece movie about a small California town in the 1962. Lucas credits his childhood memories for being the catalyst for this film, and his experience mirrored a generation’s nostalgic remembrance of growing up in what was perceived as an easier time.

conditioning (Boeree, 1998). This theory, also known as instrumental learning, is learning based on the consequences of responding (Coon & Mitterer, 2011, p. 259). The operant conditioning law of effect is the basic principle that "responses that lead to desirable effects are repeated while those that produce undesirable results are not" (Coon & Mitterer, 2011, p. 259).

Lucas’s first efforts only got him about 575 feet underground thanks to financial troubles and the sands of the drilling sites caving in on the rigs. Still, he was not a man to give up so easily, as he was convinced that oil was down there. so he secured help from John H. Galey and James M. Guffey, for a small portion of potential profits.

Joe, Magwitch, Jaggers and Pumblechook, but none of these men can give him what he needs from a predecessor. Dickens demonstrates to the reader the consequences that bad parenting has on children. Some children are warped by the "knottiest roots" (Lucas 141). Pip, Estella, and Magwitch are all examples of hurt children. The bitter children dwell on their past, or "what has been forgotten" (Marcus 182), and blame the parents for their sufferings. Other children such as Joe and Herbert survive bad parents

Thus, when discussing wisdom in the scriptures the feminists are observing how gender is represented and the effect of this representation upon helping or hindering a ‘right relationship’ between the genders. To recap, Proverbs illustrate Wisdom as both teacher and as a personified woman, whereas in John, Wisdom is incarnate in the Being Jesus. Matthew is similar to John in that Jesus is presented more like, as Dunn explains, ‘the
