...theme of the story? The play let revolves around a weekly gathering of doctors in Blear General hospital with some young surgeons and Dr.Gillupsie. They discuss about the various cases and operations handled in the preceding week. Wherein Dr.Gillupsie hears from the young surgeons as to how they’ve performed. The theme of the play let is basically that young surgeons just bluntly perform thing as their mind says and the value for human life is zero in case of the young surgeons. And there is lack of applied knowledge among the young lot, which is in turn supported by the experienced person like Dr.Gillepsie as well. As in the last case Mr.Carstair gave three of his patients plenty of penicillin which caused their death. The doctor was unaware of their problem, he just gave them the medicine thinking that it would cure them, which was against the duty of a doctor. A doctor cannot perform like this, he must know the value of human life. They just can't treat people like that. 2.What is the author trying to argue here? The author in this play let is trying to argue that each doctor has his own way of treating patients and he always tends to practice and apply things on patients which he likes or which interests. He tries to argue that there is no value for human life. They must perform their job in passion and not just like that. They must not work according to their own wish. They must understand the difficulties of the patients approaching them and must work completely...

...Freewill In the plays ‘A Raisin in the Sun’ and ‘Antigone’ social injustice plays a recurring role in the lives of Antigone and the Younger Family. For Antigone, freedom of free will is ripped from her while the Younger family, even though they have free will, do not seem to make use of it. Freedom and control are the two elements evident in these two plays. Antigone tries relentlessly to procure hers by standing up for what she believes is right, while the Younger family holds on to the past letting it dictate their freedom and control both the present and future. Some might say that Antigone was stubborn and foolish for not letting go of her beliefs but she was portraying her free will and freedom to do what she thought was right. A perfect example of this was when Creon asked her if she was the one who committed the ‘crime/burial, “Do you deny you did this, yes or no?” “Antigone replies, I did it. I don’t deny a thing” (Antigone- 1322). She had the courage, guts, and tenacity to exercise her own discretion and did not fear adversity. The Youngers, on the other hand, are quite the opposite. Although they had the right of freewill and control, they never seemed to take any chances to live for the future but rather let the past undermine what was present and ahead. Mama, seems to be living by rules that her dead husband had set forth and cannot seem to break away from them. For example when Ruth says “Now what kind of talk is that? Mr. Younger would just be plain mad if he...

...Romeo and Juliet Romeo and Juliet is a tragic play written by William Shakespeare, who demonstrates how one couples love, fate and destiny can over power the feud between the Montague and the Caplets. The play opens up with the servants of the Montague and Capulet families quarreling and fighting in the streets of Verona, Italy. The two families have been through many battles and share a huge amount of hatred for one another. As the play goes on, Romeo finds out that his love Juliet feels the same love and passion that he shares and feels that he needs to express it immediately.

...A Death That Revealed the World’s Concealed View on Homosexuality The Laramie Project is a play written by Moises Kaufman and the members of Tectonic Theater Project. The play is based on the interviews of the citizens of Laramie about what’s happening in Laramie and their responses to the murder of Matthew. In addition to the various themes suggested by the play, the author wanted to present the varying perspectives toward homosexuality in the Laramie community at the time of Matthew’s death. The author also wanted to explore how these perspectives may have changed as the result of Matthew’s death. Even though the citizens of Laramie persisted that hate is not a value they practice, they still showed contrasting and puzzled views towards homosexuality. Some of the citizens of Laramie, together with Reverend Fred Phelps and his people, displayed extreme hatred towards homosexuals. Reverend Phelps and his people gave an emphasis that Matthew Shepard deserved to die, for he was a sinner and a disgrace to God. They displayed placards with the picture of Matthew burning in the eternal flames of hell. Reverend Phelps says, “If God doesn’t hate fags, why does he put’ em in hell?” (79). Reverend Phelps wanted to tell every member and supporter of the LGBT community that God hates them. The undeniable proof of God’s hate to them was how he didn’t welcome Matthew into heaven and sent him to hell instead. Doug Laws, together with other citizens, showed dislike toward homosexuality...

...Importance of Play," (September 2009) published in the early childhood education journal entitled Zero to Three, Stephanie Powers illustrates that children in our present time are not being immersed in enough forms of child-centered play. With the technology in use and the push for structured education in even our preschools these days, children seem to be missing out on a vital form of learning: imaginative playtime. According to the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (1989), play is described as an inalienable right, not to be disturbed. Children thrive and gain knowledge from engaging in play with peers, caregivers, and family. One of the best ways to teach a child is through the experience they recieve each time a loved one devotes...

...iPhone and pad-based gadgets that have the access to the Internet. According to Romeo (2003), the emerging in technological development had allowed computers and touchscreen devices to be added into our lifestyle.

Anderson mentioned this in his research in 1999, “The computer has become recognized tool in education of young children, particularly where it is used to promote problem-solving skills and social interactions amongst children” However in Romeo’s report, it has been said that computers play an important role and are important in young children’s lives, National Association for the Education of Young Children’s (NAEYC) had positioned a statement on the use of technology in education lives by young children in year 1996.

...Should Children Play Football? In the area I live in many kids play football. It is fun to watch and even more fun to play, but are the risk of injuries to high? If a child is ruled too young to play, what should be the age it is allowed, should they have even more equipment on, and should it be the child’s choice or the parents? In most states a child is allowed to play when they enter kindergarten or first grade. Many have a problem with this, which can be understood. If the age of five or six is not acceptable, what is? Should they start at ten, thirteen, high school? When Scott Fujita was eight he wanted to play very badly, so badly in fact, he cried when his father (a high school football coach) said no. Scott went on to be an NFL linebacker, getting asked questions all the time like “how do you work out” and “what supplements are you taking”. Scott writes in an article saying, “Now the most common question, by far, is, “would you let your son play football?” My response was usually a resounding “no”. (Would I let my son play Football?)- Scott Fujita....

...Power of Justice in Macbeth: A balanced connection between one’s actions and thoughts. William Shakespeare’s play Macbeth examines the theme of just actions through the character named Macduff. In the play, Macduff sees it as his duty to bring peace to the country of Scotland. In order to so, Macduff always observes, and thinks before he acts. As a result, when Macduff makes a final decision, he acts upon it without hesitation. Lastly, Macduff is willing to sacrifice everything to save his land. Unfortunately, Macduff is the only character in the play to act in such a fashion. Showing that throughout the play Macbeth, only Macduff demonstrates truly just actions. Firstly, Macduff’s actions are always lawful and valid because he observes and thinks before he acts. When everyone searches for the guards to confront them only to find them dead, Macduff confronts Macbeth by asking, “Wherefore did you so?” (II.iii.114) Macduff is the first one to question Macbeth’s reasoning behind killing the drunken guards. Even though Macduff is quite suspicious of the events that lead to the death of King Duncan, he does not jump right into the scene. Macduff observes and ask questions about what has happened during the turn of events. The same thing happens again when Macduff questions Malcolm and his loyalty: “Such welcome and unwelcome this at once, ‘Tis hard to reconcile.” (IV.iii.138-139) Macduff shows his ability to make accurate decisions by not jumping too quickly into this alliance...
