... re probably the beginnings of the musical.
Musicians also provided entertainment after the
play providing music for the audience to dance to.
Community youth also delivered concerts before the
play, sometimes lasting up to one hour long
(Brockett-b 161). For modern theater, the purposes
of sound are identical to those purposes of Greek,
Roman, and Medieval drama. Yet, as the other
elements of theater have evolved technically, so
has sound. The use of modern technology can not

Robert Frost The Road Not Taken
710 words
The Road Not Taken is perhaps one of Robert
Frost's most famous poems. This poem deals with
the choices you have to make in life. Whether it's
what to wear in the morning or what to do with
your life, everyone makes choices. When you look
at this poem carefully, you realize Robert Frost
is choosing much more than what road to walk down.
He is making a lifelong decision. One of the
reasons I am drawn to this poem is the imagery. A
forest is a very quiet place that suits this poem
well. Being in a...

Global Positioning System Air Traffic
1,060 words
It has been estimated that air traffic will double
within the next ten years. Maintaining our current
accident rate, with double the traffic, would
mathematically lead to twice as many accidents as
we currently experience every year. That prospect
is unacceptable (UK and International Press).
There has been obvious growing concern with our
airspace due to the anticipated expected growth in
air traffic in the years to come. These concerns
are not unwarranted with technology increasing at
a furiou...

Time And Space Rem Sleep
1,416 words
In the middle of the night, I was taking a walk
through the woods. I could hear owls hooting and
animals scattering under leaves. From the vague
sound of water trickling over rocks, I knew my
destination was coming soon. As I was walking, the
heel of my foot got wedged between a stump and a
rock. I started to sway and my heart stopped.
Slowly I could feel my body fall towards the
ground. Not knowing when I would fall, where I
would land, what I would fall on or what might
fall on me, made my hea...

Girls And Women Thin Ideal

Several decades ago, consistent research
demonstrated stereotypical behavioural and
personality traits associated with each of the
three somatotypes. These studies suggested that
mesomorphic (medium body build) body types were
associated with the most favourable traits whereas
the heavier endomorphs were associated with being
socially aggressive, lazy, and unattractive and
the thin ectomorphs were associated with being
nervous, socially withdrawn, and submissive.
Research has demonstrated that t...

Watching Violent Aggressive Behavior
996 words
In recent years, the news has seemed to mimic
violence that appears in television and in movies.
Several incidents support the majority of people's
assumption that TV violence effects a child's
behavior in many ways. A child's judgment is hurt
badly by viewing TV violence, which can have some
serious long-term effects. First of all, when
children see characters on TV or in movies triumph
by using physical force, they begin to see
violence as an acceptable way of resolving
conflicts. As a result,...

The Origins Of Hip Hop And Rap

In the late 1970 s a new, popular form of urban
youth culture emerged in the Bronx, New York that

Introduction To Japanese Grammar And Learning New Vocabulary
1,023 words
Introduction to Japanese Grammar Japanese
sentences are very different from familiar
languages like English and Spanish. Incidentally,
Spanish is very similar to English grammar-wise.
Japanese, on the other hand, uses small words
called "particles" that mark what a word is
supposed to "be" to the sentence. More on
particles later. On the upside though, once you
learn Japanese grammar (it doesn't take as long as
you might think) you can sit back and relax,
because Japanese grammar is very logical...

The article in which I chose to examine is called
Right Brain, Left Brain: Fact and Fiction, written
by Jerry Levy. In the past fifteen years or so
there has been a lot of talk of left brain and

misconceptions and show the truth about how our
brain hemispheres operate. Levy first explores the
myth of the left brain and right brain theory. She

the activity of internal organs to help the body
respond to its environment and to maintain the
