Arcadia, a play by Tom Stoppard, examines an English estate in two different time periods and discusses the relevance of the estate’s history. The audience travels back and forth in time as the present day characters learn about the lives of those who lived almost two centuries before them. While costumes, actors, and syntax styles make time travel evident to the audience, the set does not shift at all. Furthermore, all props that are used on stage remain there, whether they be a quill pen or a coffee mug. One prop in particular, a tortoise, is used throughout both worlds. This tortoise best exemplifies one of the major themes of the play, that history is relevant for as long as it matters to someone. In 1809, the audience meets a young girl, Thomasina, and her tutor, Septimus. As they learn about and prove theories well ahead of the time period, a guest in the home, Ezra Chater, learns that his wife has been caught with another man. The play then shifts to the present day, where a writer, Hannah, meets Bernard, a literary critic. Bernard is in search of what happened to Ezra Chater, who wrote “The Couch of Eros,” while Hannah is studying the hermit of Sidley Park, who is a character unknown. As Hannah and Bernard, along with a graduate student, Valentine, accumulate journals and notes from the characters in the past, Bernard believes that Lord Byron shot and killed Chater. The audience by now has learned that Septimus and and Chater are to duel, for Septimus was the man who…

The purpose of this observation today at Starbucks at the slow period of 2PM is to determine how much crucial time between morning rush and evening rush is wasted by employees just standing around and conversing. We will impose the saying “if you lean, you can clean”. This will further determine if the request by upper management to seek out training is in fact necessary. I will be observing the cashier and the barista. The cashier’s name is Amy and the Barista’s name is Tanner. I am observing…

The moderate movement shots of Yodda mysteriously going through suburbia makes a fantasy like environment. What's more, as the tune, with its bassy expanded voice, completes, the shot moves from an evening in suburbia, to an evening time shot of Yodda remaining before what gives off an impression of being dwelling house. To get a feeling of the importance behind these shots and the video, I got up to speed with the craftsman for further intimations. He clarified that the shoes spoke to getting…

You gotta give Melania Trump credit for being glam no matter the occasion. First Lady Trump decked the halls and trimmed the White House tree wearing a designer label coat indoors. Melania ushered in the Christmas season and shared several pictures of her looking jolly and ready to spread holiday joy. As the holiday lyrics go, "I'm dreaming of a white Christmas." However, as one person quipped, Melania Trump must have thought it was snowing inside the White House when she wore her coat inside…

far more profitable than an honest one. Although laws about murder may not be as serious as a laws about embezzlement, the same idea applies here. Without businesses having a standard that they must adhere to, it would be far easier and more profitable to live a life of corruption. Sure it 's easy to believe that many people have too good of a conscious to commit harmful acts, but if these acts still occur while there are tremendous consequences on the table then it would only make sense that…
