The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Lighting design
1. Lighting design by: Phuong Pham
Written by: William Inge
Group # 58
Thea 1331 Collaboration Design Project
2. Visibility
• Especially in the very first place of the
play, where there is a scene of
snowstorm, such as the introduction
of the two lady talking to a sheriff
about the incoming bus when the
weather makes it scheduled stopover,
a light designer would provide lighting
that fills the whole stage to assist in
the visual of the set and characters for
the audience.
• On the other hand at the scene Elma
and Dr. Lyman perform the play
Romeo and Juliet, Dr. Lyman has a
moment of thinking about himself for
what he is: drinking man and liar and
then he falls on the floor. At this time,
the light would be minimized and
focused on Dr. Lyman. It will provide
a visual that only concentrates on Dr.
Lyman and not the scenery in the
background.
3. Form
• Lighting could also reveal the
form of the snows in the
snowstorm scene. Lighting also
can create the wind. Lighting can
reveal the whiteness outside of the
restaurant. Without the revealing
of the snow and the wind, the
audience would not understand
where the play is taking place.
• Furthermore, a light designer
reveals shapes and forms in a set.
All of the equipments in play such
as kitchen, stairs, table, chair and
even a chopstick or a spoon
should be lighted out so audience
can see them better.
4. Shape
• Lighting could reveal the shape and form of
the heart at the time where Cherie shows Bo
how to kiss her tenderly. The light design
could focus the light onto both of the
character, and more specifically, the heart for
the audience to help them see that the
particular object is.
5. Focus onstage and create visual compositions.
• Moreover, a light designer
provides a focus onstage and
creates visual compositions. A
light designer understands that
through visual composition, the
center of the stage is where the
attention of an audience
naturally goes. The light
designer reinforces the central
visual image.
• Therefore, at the very end of the
play when Cherie agrees to
marry Bo, the characters would
be placed directly in the middle
with the light focused on their
words and actions creating a
more natural aspect in the play.
6. Creating mood and Reinforcing style.
• When it comes to creating a particular mood, through levels of
illumination, patterns of lighting, and the color of the light, it can create
moods that are associated with peacefulness, anger, warmth, coolness,
etc.
• Therefore, a light designer may use a white colored light to reveal the
snowstorm at the very beginning scene. The white light will present the
coolness for the weather and the loneliness to the character because at
the beginning no one has fallen in love to each other, except Bo.
• Additionally, a warm and radiant light could be used when a certain
character falls in love with a different character. Each different colored
light illustrates to the audience what they should essentially feel.
• The warm, bright yellow light also can use in the play. For example, in
the morning after the storm, the sun rises, and the storm has passed,
these lights should be used in here to make an audience could feel the
peacefulness and warmness.
7. Time and Place
• Through lighting, a light designer can establish
time and place. The fading and brighten of light
can help audience understand whether a scene is
ending, or when a scene is starting up again.
• Through each separate scene, the lighting used
can create a skip of a certain amount of time; for
example, from the outside of the restaurant, to
the inside, to the living room, to the kitchen, each
scene can be cut off and started up through light.
•
Although lights are more subtle than the scenery
and costumes in giving the location of the play,
lights can also provide important information
such as time of day, season of the year, or places
like a city, desert, or forest. The audience should
be able to tell by the lighting if it is day or night,
dawn, or noon.
8. Rhythm of visual movement
• The lighting is important in
establishing the rhythm of a
production. It determines how
lights change from scene to
scene, during the play, and the
end of the play.
• For example, when the play
ends with everyone leaving the
diner and Grace goes back to
her house to get some sleep, at
this time the rhythm should be
applied. The rhythm will
create sharp, fast black-outs at
the end of the play.
9. Central Visual Image
• Lighting has to coordinate
with the rest of the design
elements to help facilitate the
message the director is trying
to convey.
• For example, during the play
when Cherie begins to sing
and Bo is so aroused by her
performance, in this scene the
lighting will focus on Cherie so
she will be the central visual
image to Bo. This will show to
the audience that Bo has fallen
in love with her and he decides
to declare his love to Cherie.
