![]() ![]() With theater, there’s a way that you can be with your fellow artists on stage, because we’re all in front of all these people together, so you show up a certain way. Not that there’s not camaraderie in film and TV, but everything is just so “go, go, go.” You don’t really have time to live in things. When you put on a show, there’s something so beautiful about spending all this time together. What are the biggest differences working in theater versus television?įor me, it’s the community. It’s how we as adults have the responsibility for the new generation. If you’re spewing hate, of course they are going to say hateful things. That is the spell.” Children are always listening to the things you say and how you use your voice. Talk about handbook! “Careful the tale you tell. She’ll remember it for the rest of her life.ĭid singing “Children Will Listen” affect your own thinking as a parent? The show is almost three hours long, and every time I walked out, she was waving. At my very last performance, she was three rows back every time I walked out onto the stage, I saw this tiny hand waving back and forth at me. She is my number one fan, tied with my husband. Afterward, she was like, “Can we go again?,” and would tell all her friends in school about it. It was her first time seeing me on stage, and she got to wear a frilly dress and sit close to the stage. By the time she got to see the performance, she knew all of the songs. I was constantly rehearsing because we had such a limited window so I was always singing “Stay With Me” to her. She was two when she saw me perform it at the Hollywood Bowl, before the show moved to Broadway. My daughter has an absolute attachment to Into the Woods. I’m no longer thinking, Oh, God, what if I mess up? For me it’s now about going out, being myself, telling the story, being present, and no matter what happens, enjoying the moment. ![]() But it was so much more fulfilling, because I’ve lived life and I’m older now. Thankfully, it was like riding a bicycle. I got chills at our first preview and was so giddy. But being on the other side of it was a flood of emotions. Prior to that, I had been seeing a lot of shows and being in an audience was still a new thing. I got emotional on the first day that I walked out onto the stage. I was so scared because it’s like, what if I lost it? What if I can’t do eight shows a week? But when we had our first tech rehearsal, I stepped out onto the stage and I remember thinking, I could do this all day. Oh, my God, I was so nervous! I left the stage for eight years, came back as a mother and was trying to find my way. There were weekends that I didn’t get to spend with the family-I’d see her in the morning and then I’d go run, because I was training for a marathon, and then I’d have two shows and call her in between. He was very, very helpful during the Broadway run. My mom being here allowed me to take time for myself in that way. In the beginning of the process, I was lucky enough to have a baby nurse, and then my mom moved up here to help me. How do you make time for self-care when you have a small child at home? I have to carve out that little bit of time to be good to myself-it enables me to jump into all of these projects and give them my all. Self-care is how I’m able to go and do eight shows a week, film a TV show, and a movie. For me, it’s all about longevity and how I want to be when I’m up in my older years. When you feel good, it does something to your confidence.

TRI-RAIL Routes Servicing Broward Health Facilities ![]() ![]() Here, we have placed the number of pairs of skis produced per month on the vertical axis and the number of snowboards produced per month on the horizontal axis. Neither skis nor snowboards is an independent or a dependent variable in the production possibilities model we can assign either one to the vertical or to the horizontal axis. The curve is a downward-sloping straight line, indicating that there is a linear, negative relationship between the production of the two goods. These values are plotted in a production possibilities curve for Plant 1. Combination A involves devoting the plant entirely to ski production combination C means shifting all of the plant’s resources to snowboard production combination B involves the production of both goods. The table in Figure 2.2 “A Production Possibilities Curve” gives three combinations of skis and snowboards that Plant 1 can produce each month. ![]() It can produce skis and snowboards simultaneously as well. When devoted solely to snowboards, it produces 100 snowboards per month. Suppose the first plant, Plant 1, can produce 200 pairs of skis per month when it produces only skis. We assume that the factors of production and technology available to each of the plants operated by Alpine Sports are unchanged. Ryder’s three plants as a miniature economy and analyze them using the production possibilities model. While even smaller than the second plant, the third was primarily designed for snowboard production but could also produce skis. Two years later she added a third plant in another town. She also modified the first plant so that it could produce both snowboards and skis. The second plant, while smaller than the first, was designed to produce snowboards as well as skis. She added a second plant in a nearby town. Ski sales grew, and she also saw demand for snowboards rising-particularly after snowboard competition events were included in the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City. Christie Ryder began the business 15 years ago with a single ski production facility near Killington ski resort in central Vermont. To construct a production possibilities curve, we will begin with the case of a hypothetical firm, Alpine Sports, Inc., a specialized sports equipment manufacturer. It is a process of increasing the economy’s ability to produce goods and services.Constructing a Production Possibilities Curve This can only be possible if there is an improvement in the quantity and/or quality of factors of production. This costs will include retraining cost of our workforce and the time consumed in this rellocation.Īny point outside the curve is unattainable unless there is an outward shift of the PPC. Before the rellocation of resources we will have to consider the costs of rellocating these resources between uses. This is known as rellocation of resources. Resources have to be switched from building more Hosipitals to building more Schools. Thus, it is impossible to build more Schools without also building fewer Hospitals. For example Z, shows the possible combinations of School buildings and Hospitals. Government has to move along this curve and decide the best possible combination of goods to produce. If you move to the other end then all the resources would be used to produce Hospitals and not Schools will be there in the economy. In the graph, if all the resources are used to produce Schools then there will be no Hospitals. ![]() Production Possibility curve (PPC) shows the maximum combinations of goods and services that can be produced by an economy in a given time period with its limited resources.

But it doesn’t have all of the features of its competitors, and I’m keen to evaluate the options as I write this series of reviews. It integrates well with macOS and iOS, suggests and automatically fills in passwords (both for websites and applications), and warns me when I have used the same password on multiple sites. Over the last few years, I’ve been using Apple’s iCloud Keychain instead. And when I left the job, there were no concerns about who I might share the passwords. My managers were able to give me access to web services without me knowing the passwords, and remove access when I no longer needed it. I used LastPass both as an individual and a team member for five or six years from 2009. My name is Adrian Try, and password managers have been making my life easier for over a decade. Generate Strong, Unique Passwords for Each Website Sticky Password Review: What’s In It For You?.What I Don’t Like: Mac version lacks important features. But I suspect that most people would be better served by one of the apps listed in the Alternatives section of this review. Make use of the 30-day free trial to see if it meets your needs. ![]() If Sticky Password’s strengths appeal to you, add it to your shortlist. In fact, LastPass’s free plan is an attractive alternative to Sticky Password’s Premium. You’d be better off using LastPass, whose free plan allows you to manage an unlimited number of passwords on multiple devices. Most of us have several and need our passwords available everywhere. Although a free plan is offered, it’s limited to a single device. If you’re looking for a free password manager, Sticky Password isn’t the best alternative. And it’s the only password manager I’m aware of that allows you to purchase the program outright, giving relief to users suffering from subscription fatigue-at a price. That will appeal to some security-conscious users. It gives you the option of syncing your passwords over your local network rather than storing them in the cloud. I’m not sure many Apple users will find it worthwhile unless they also have the program installed on a PC.īut Sticky Password has two key advantages over the competition. There’s no Security Dashboard, no import, and no app passwords. Unfortunately, if you’re a Mac user you’ll have to pay the same amount of money for an inferior product. If you’re a Windows user, Sticky Password offers quite a number of features for $29.99/year, and that’s more affordable than comparable password managers. If you’re not already using a password manager, it’s time to start. ![]() ![]() ![]() He is also said to have deserted the Confederate Army and ended up in prison. One witness says that the man currently posing as Jack defrauded his township of several thousand dollars after claiming he wanted to help rebuild the schoolhouse there. Several witnesses are brought up to discredit this Sommersby as a fraud they state that he is Horace Townsend, an English teacher and con artist from Virginia. Jack fires the lawyer and sets about re-establishing himself as the real Sommersby. Meacham devises this plan in exchange for Laurel promising to marry him upon "Sommersby's" imprisonment. This would save him from hanging for murder, but he would still be imprisoned for fraud and military desertion. Laurel and Jack's lawyer agree to argue that her husband is an impostor. Laurel's attempts to save her husband focus on the question of his identity: whether this "Jack" is who he claims to be, or a lookalike who met the real Sommersby whilst in prison for deserting the Confederate Army. Marshals arrest Jack on the charge of murder, which carries the death penalty. Laurel gives birth to a daughter, Rachel. All those that bought in on the deal set to work, transforming the plantation into a breeding ground of promise and prosperity. Upon taking the townspeople's money, he buys the tobacco seed claiming that the crops will raise enough funds to rebuild the town church. Jack is threatened, in an attempt to force him to exclude black people from the landowning, but he refuses. Joseph, a black freedman living on Sommersby's land, is brutally attacked and brought to Sommersby's door by hooded night riders proclaiming themselves the Knights of the White Camellia (one of them is Meacham). This raises further doubts in his old neighbors, who believe that the "old" Jack would not give away his father's land, and causes resentment about the inclusion of former slaves. ![]() He persuades the townsfolk to pool their resources to buy seed, offering them to share-crop on his land, and to sell them their plots at a fair price once the mortgage is cleared. To revive the economy, he suggests Burley tobacco as a cash crop. Jack finds the local economy ruined, and his own land mortgaged and exhausted. The town shoemaker also finds that this man's foot is two sizes smaller than the last made for Sommersby before the war. Jack and Laurel rekindle their intimacy, which leads to Laurel becoming pregnant.ĭisplaced from his courtship of Laurel, Meacham suspects Jack to be an impostor. He claims that the book was given to him by a man he met in prison. In the evenings, he reads to them from Homer's Iliad, which the old Jack would never have done. He is now kind and loving to Laurel and their young son, Rob. One day, Jack seemingly returns with a change of heart. She makes remarriage plans with one of her neighbors, Orin Meacham, who has been helping her and her young son with the farmwork. Despite the hardship of working their farm in Vine Hill, Tennessee, his apparent widow Laurel is content in his absence, because Jack was an unpleasant and abusive husband. John "Jack" Sommersby left his farm to fight in the American Civil War and is presumed dead after six years. The film received generally positive reviews from critics who praised the performances and chemistry of its lead actors as well as the musical score and was a box office success grossing over $140 million worldwide on a budget of $30 million. Sommersby was released in the United States on Februby Warner Bros. Set in the Reconstruction era following the American Civil War, the film depicts a farmer returning home from the war, with his wife beginning to suspect that the man is an impostor. Based on the 1982 French film The Return of Martin Guerre, the film stars Richard Gere and Jodie Foster, with Bill Pullman, James Earl Jones, Clarice Taylor, Frankie Faison, and R. Sommersby is a 1993 American period romantic drama directed by Jon Amiel from a screenplay written by Nicholas Meyer and Sarah Kernochan, adapted from the historical account of the 16th century French peasant Martin Guerre. ![]() ![]() ![]() But within art, we analyze ourselves and our society, asking question we might not have asked otherwise. In math and science, we find solutions and get answers. Hector Garza from Teatro Palo Alto explained that the arts are important because you learn the to ask questions. If you’re having trouble in your health class, it might be hard to be a nurse. Like anything, you need to have the talent or the willingness to put in the work,” Brawley said.īrawley pointed out like any field of study, it might not be suited toward one person. Growing up surrounded in art made Kevin want to pursue this field, working to obtain a career in digital arts.Ĭakky Brawley, Palo Alto’s associate professor of Art, wanted a career in art since she was young, and she was in an environment where she could pursue it. Kevin Garza, a Digital Arts major, chose art because most of his family studied art, “My whole family was into art, so I felt like I should study it.” In other words, professional work does exist for this major. Both of these would require a bachelor’s degree. For multimedia artists, 69,400 jobs were recorded, a 6 percent increase. They just want to get rich quick, or if they don’t the make it, they become a starving artist.Īccording to the Federal Bureau of Labor, the outlook for a graphic designer in 2014 was 261,600 jobs recorded, a 1 percent increase. The art student won’t make a bridge, like an engineer, or heal people, like a doctor. As a student, you just want to be the next “Drake,” someone who wants to shine in the light. They want to do something quick and get recognition for it. One perception that many people have is that if a person studies art, they are lazy. A career in the arts can range from illustration to drama to music. Nursing, law and engineering are all seen as noble studies, while art is often seen as a huge risk. When students choose a major, they are encouraged to study something that they can make a living. Everything will fall into place.Pulse staff reporter Photo of Palo Alto College art students by Thristan Ramos. If you are reading this, it’s going to be okay. Everyone has their own reasons and every single one of them is valid. I don’t feel as alone to grow older knowing that others feel the same way. I believe that many things play a role on how you think when it comes down to this topic. Growing old has different meanings for each person. When it comes to that I am very confident.” I asked him the same question and he replied, “Actually I am ready to grow older. The thought of growing up does not have the same impact on everybody. I mean who would want to live life without actually living and enjoying every minute of it? Exactly, no one. I do not want to spend my life just working. When I am older I want to be able to travel and not worry if I’ll be able to afford it. It is very understandable to have this fear. You have to find a way to balance your life. When you’re an adult your life can be hectic. I am also afraid to be old and in pain, I am not trying to have back pain and everything that comes with it.” But what if I am not able to be free?Ī couple days ago I asked my brother, “Do you have any fears when you think of growing up, if so what are they?” He said, “I am afraid that I will not be free that I will always be busy working and will never have time nor the money to explore. Now I am not trying to be negative again, but I am talking about my fears that come with growing old. I believe that when you are older, you can do as you wish. I want to create a calm, gentle and loving environment - the environment I envied while growing up. I have a fear that when I grow older and have children I become the parent my father and mother used to be - the one thing I promised myself not to do. Instead, I worry that I might not be able to financially support myself and my future family. I wish I could say the same about myself but I can not. When you start growing you think of all the places you want to see, all the stuff you want to buy, etc. ![]() I guess those reasons affect me when I envision myself growing and creating a life of my own. I grew up surrounded by a family who did not really know how to respect one another, I grew up with parents that truly loved us but did not provide that calm environment a child needs, I grew up seeing the adults around me struggle financially, and not live the way they truly desire. I want to experience life but at the same time it is a point in my life I am afraid to get to. Growing up comes with fears.ĭon’t get me wrong, I want to grow up. Growing up is facing reality and accepting challenges. Growing up means no longer depending on someone to care for you. We are no longer that little kid running freely without a care in the world. Everyone wants to grow up, but there is a fear of growing up that worries me. ![]() ![]() ![]() The iconic G6136T-55 White Falcon “Vintage Select” is the quintessential “Holy Grail” guitar.
