Dr. Akagi film review Japan was one of the most hard-hit countries after the ending of the second world war. The country suffered not only the countless loss of lives in the form of military personnel but also through the nuclear bombing of two of its islands where countless innocent lives were lost so that the war could be over. Over the years, cinematic retelling of famous historical events has become popular, and many TV shows and films have been produced and directed to tell the story of war and the consequences it has the lives people as well as their society.

Sword Play as Applied in Othello and Goodnight Desdemona (Good Morning Juliet) Swordplay is amalgamated in theatre to show assertion, strength, or generating themes in plot development. In Goodnight Desdemona (Good Morning Juliet), MacDonald applies swordplay to develop the immense hatred amidst Desdemona, Constance, and Iago. Desdemona’s character as a strong, fierce, and bloodthirsty warrior woman who loves war provides the playwright with numerous options for developing the plot of the play. She stands out as a funny warmonger: “Desdemona: Gird thy trembling lions, and slay Professor Night!” (MacDonald, 37). Constance’s intrusion into the Romeo and Juliet tragedy is at a critical point, whereby a fight between Romeo and Tybalt is impending. MacDonald uses this hostile situation to cleverly alter the original plot of Shakespeare’s chain of deaths by changing it into a comedy after Constance halts the impending fight. It is in this conflict (MacDonald, 24) that the twist in the Shakespearean tragic plot is introduced whereby Constance attracts Romeo’s romantic attention spontaneously when her clothes get ripped off by Desdemona and are totally infatuated. “Romeo: Did my heart…

English 1005: First Written Assignment Staging Caliban Shakespeare’s The Tempest has portrayed and presented Caliban in various perspectives. The primary point of concern is colonialism. In several instances, the presentation and staging of Caliban have changed from that of half-animal to “others” in the current colonial times. The character, Césaire’s Caliban, is ethnically mistreated for being black. The suggestion is that The Tempest is a modification to black theatre adaptation. As an adaptation, this essay stages Caliban in the modern staging of The Tempest. The epicenter is colonialism in the pre-colonial times. One of the core ways to stage the Caliban is as the “other.” In William Shakespeare’s’ The Tempest, Caliban has been presented as part and parcel of the colonial paradigm. Concerning the suggestions given by Prospero, Caliban attempted to rate Miranda. The native is thus, a rapist as he admits his guilt. He remarks as follows: O ho, O ho! Wouldn’t have been done! Thou didst prevent me. I had peopled else this isle with Caliban (I.ii.419-421) The acknowledgment is a justification of the colonial setting backgrounds of…

Management of Thrombophilia Thrombophilia is a term used to define a situation where the blood has an extreme tendency to clot. Adverse pregnancy results, for example, miscarriages and pre-eclampsia, are related to thrombophilia and thrombotic devices. Furthermore, the antithrombotic interferences, such as reduced molecular-weight heparin, have been examined in women recognized by the result of early pregnancy. However, the outcomes have been unpredictable. Therefore, this might reproduce heterogeneity, not only the study groups but also the disorder procedures, leading to a lack of stratification to direct antithrombotic interferences. Moreover, the gestation changes at low-molecular-weight heparin initiation treatment may be crucial. Despite inadequate proof of effectiveness, low-molecular-weight heparin is always utilized trying to control these problems, due to insufficient of different actual management as well as its apparent security in pregnancy. The study emphases on various articles studying in what way the inherited thrombophilia management has been improved by the obtainability of point of care coagulation nursing knowledge. Management of Thrombophilia Inherited thrombophilia contributes to a developed predisposition to thrombotic activities. The dangers of thrombophilia activities are increased when patients are…

Children with Autism Introduction Autism is a common neurodevelopmental condition caused by either a defect in brain structure or its working or by either genetic or environmental factors or certain prenatal viral infections, which lead to a growing disorder. Autistic signs and symptoms in a child are noticed during the first three years of life and may include impaired communication, poor eye contact, unusual body posture, repetitive movements, self or other people harming actions, and social withdrawal, among others. Symptoms continue to develop gradually with neither reduction nor disappearance. The degree of impairment differs in individuals and different respects. Autistic children are a special group of children who face significant communication, communal, and conduct challenges requiring specialized interventions as symptoms may be severe and inhibit daily tasks. Community members with any form of disability meet a host of hindrances in carrying out personal or communal activities due to stigma from non-disabled people (Collier, Rothwell, Vanzo, & Carbone, 2015). While demonstrating an understanding of therapeutic recreation intervention concepts demonstrated in covered units, this report will research and discuss therapeutic recreation intervention…

The Future of Virtual Reality History of Virtual Reality and How It Has Developed Until Now Virtual reality is a replicated experience which can be comparable to the real world or utterly different from it. Besides, virtual reality includes applications such as entertainment and educational purposes. In the year 1935, science fiction author Stanley Weinbaum wrote Pygmalion’s Spectacles, and the main character in this fictional short story meets a professor who invents a pair of goggles that assigned him to view a movie with sight, sound, taste, smell, and touch. However, the first virtual reality technology was invented by Morton Heilig in 1957 (Lawson et al., 2016, p.335). Morton Heilig invented a theatre cabinet multimedia device called Sensorama that offered viewers an interactive experience (Pope, 2018). This device was a viewing screen for sight, oscillating fans for touch, devices that emitted a smell, and audio speakers for sound hence, inducing the users’ senses. In 1961, Comeau and Bryan manufactured the first head-mounted display (HMD) referred to Head sight. Besides, this head sight had two video screens, one for each eye,…
