Introduction

The nature of "The Cherry Orchard", in terms of the genre has always been controversial. Often the play is defined as a "tragicomedy", or an "an ironic tragicomedy." However, it is vital to understand what genre the play is as it defines the code of reading the play and the characters. What does it mean to see elements of tragedy in the play? This would mean to a certain extent agree with the characters’ originality, their sincere and true suffering.

I would choose Sally and Joan for the 11 PM to 7 AM and 3 PM to 11 PM shifts, respectively. These graduates have individual qualities that fit into the two shifts as follows. First, Sally is a perfect fit in the 11 PM to 7 AM shift. Her profile reveals a young highly qualified nurse in both academic and clinical setups. While she has great clinical judgment skills, Sally lacks social maturity and interpersonal aspects. Also, she is choosy in essence, with a complete bias on a critical care as opposed to regular medical-surgical unit (Marquis and Huston, ...

Introduction

The human resource management function is an organization function whose main concern is to manage people within organizations focusing on the organization policies and systems (Siddiqui & Kleiner, 1998).

Traditionally, in the healthcare sector, the importance of the human resource management has not been fully appreciated (Kabene, Orchard, Howard, Soriano & Leduc, 2006). However, over the years, the benefit of the human resource in ...

Anton Chekov’s seminal play The Cherry Orchard, among its many other themes, explores the theme of time passing. Lopakhin the businessman, for instance, remarks that “Time does go,” a simple statement that is nonetheless indicative of a larger sense of the significance of time in the lives of the characters (1). The play as viewed through the time-sensitive character Lopakhin operates on a ticking clock, as he is perpetually anxious about saving the titular cherry orchard in time, and gives the audience the impression of Lopakhin as a hurried, efficient character, representative of a more modern desire to ...

Introduction

Adolescent sex offenders are youths aged between 12 years and 17 years who forcefully commit sexual acts with persons of any age, against the will of their victims or without consent in an exploitative, aggressive, and threatening manner (Ryan, 2010). It is difficult to accurately determine the prevalence of adolescent sex crimes due to the absence of comprehensive or accurate national statistics. However, the police, public, and policymakers are increasingly scrutinizing the instances where juveniles commit sexual offenses. Previously, the public did not pay attention to the problem, as most people were of the opinion that boys will always ...

Jim’s Wings located in the center of Fort Collins, Colorado is possibly the best wing place ever. I hesitate to confirm that they are in fact the best ever because I haven’t yet tried all of the wings everywhere. However, they are the best I have had thus far. Jim’s Wings opened in 1991 and has been Fort Collins’ favorite for wings, side things, green things, things with buns, and buffalo things ever since (Jim’s Wings Website Home Page). Another aspect that Jim’s Wings prides itself on is the family friendly dining environment that ...

Response to Q1a

Strategy 1: Aggressive. As per strategy 1, the Total funds requirements are to be divided into permanent and seasonal requirements based on the premise that permanent requirements are essential and the seasonal requirements vary and hence the permanent requirements need to be allocated out of the total monthly requirements based on Polly’s assessment of short term and long term average monthly requirements as shown below.

For Strategy 2, the conservative funding requires Polly to allocate the whole amount to Permanent requirements with long term funds equal to $1,500,000 and the seasonal requirements to ...

According to statistics, approximately over 25 million US citizens have diabetes (Orchard, 2005). This represents over 8% of the entire population. It is approximated that 79 million US citizens have pre-diabetes, a condition characterized by increased blood sugar, although, not to a level qualifying it to be termed as diabetes. Being a chronic disease, once diagnosed with diabetes, the only thing that a patient may do is to control his/her blood sugar, but cure is not guaranteed. Although treatment of diabetes prevents some of the adverse effects, it does not usually restore the blood sugar to the normal levels. Thus, current methods have ...

In times of war, the need for leadership within organizations becomes particularly important, because the decisions do not typically affect balance sheets or income statements; instead, they can result in the loss of human life, and even a change in a country’s government, if that country ends up losing a war as a result of poor decisions. The leadership that Lt. General William H. Tunner showed in the Hump and Berlin airlifts, as well as in later transport operations, showed the benefits and disadvantages of his particular leadership style. While his own personal strengths helped him manage operations effectively when he was ...

The Human Resource Department is an integral part of every organization.

Majorly, nature assists the poet to develop the plot of each poem as well ...

Question One

The playwright that I support is Art by Yasmina Reza. In this play, Art regards the catastrophic outcome on three friends, and when one of the buys a work that is expensive —a huge painting containing white lines on a canvas that was white. This play relates more to our play because everyone in Art is selfish and self- centered. In our play, instead of recognizing the elephant in the room, which is the suicide, everyone’s focus is on their own issues just like in the Art where three men engage in an continuing debate over the worth of the painting, ...

It begins in February 44 BC., when Julius Caesar enters ...

Classic English Literature

Anton Pavlovich Chekhov, born in the small seaport of Taganrog, Ukraine in 1860, was a physician who wrote short stories and plays. While he spent his early years under the shadow of his father's religious fanaticism, he managed to support his medical studies by taking tuitions. As a doctor, Chekov spent his daytime caring for the needy while he spent the nights writing. His medical background is clearly evident in much of his plays as evidenced by the apathy many of his characters show towards tragic events. His plays and short stories are influenced by his doctoral research at the penal ...

In this universe, there is some task out there that is ours in a morally valid way. This is referred to as our vocation. Education is supposed to lead us to this lifelong vocation, which is ultimately an occupation that will feel natural and we will love. The problem with most of us is that we are so conflicted in life that we never consider looking for our true vocation. Men who have been too conflicted have never found their true vocation and those who find their true vocation; they never had any conflicts about it. Often we become so ...

Money often acts as source happiness, yet it may result sorrows. “The Cherry Orchard” presents a situation where the two main characters appear seemingly bound in bondage for the good and bad of money, and the way they use their treasures. Flights cover the whole usage of money and social crimes are not exception. The strength of money elates many people into deals that later prove not worthy the course. At the same time, money’s main motive includes investment, which presents the idea of taking risks that are worth (Carruthers 59). Ranevsky and Lopakhin in “The Cherry Orchard” relay ...

Robert Frost is considered one of the greatest American poets of all time. He created imagery and cultural memes that exist in American culture to this day; indeed, some of what is considered trite and overdone in poetry was introduced into the art by Frost. “Mending Wall,” one of Frost’s most famous pieces of poetry, is particularly prevalent and common in American culture, even today. Different critics analyze the text of “Mending Wall” differently, but there are a few different camps that analyses of this particular poem fall into. Some critics, while analyzing “Mending Wall,” take into account ...

Introduction

An apple pie is an American dish which has apples as its principal filling ingredients. Apple pies originated from Europe-England. It was introduced in North America in the 17th century. Europeans had been baking apple pies for many years before it was introduced in America. The dish gained more popularity in the 19th century. By mid 1940s, the dish became a national dish in America. The dish lacked popularity because America was not a producer of apples. This made it difficult for the Americans to bake the dish. By late 19th century, the dish had become common in America. However, one ...

In the Acts of the Apostles, St. Paul stands up during a meeting at the Areopagus, in Athens, and begins to speak to them about a statue he had seen while he was walking around the city. While many of the objects of worship had the name of their god or goddess on them, one was labeled “to an unknown god” (Acts 17:23). He uses this object to open the discussion of the God of the Hebrew and Christian faiths with the Athenians – people who worshipped a whole spectrum of deities, many of whom behaved like adolescents given too much power in ...

MENDING WALL

Something there is that doesn't love a wall,

That sends the frozen-ground-swell under it,

And spills the upper boulders in the sun;

And makes gaps even two can pass abreast.

The work of hunters is another thing:

I have come after them and made repair

Where they have left not one stone on a stone,

But they would have the rabbit out of hiding,

To please the yelping dogs. The gaps I mean,

No one has seen them made or heard them made,

But at spring mending-time we find them there.

I let my neighbour know beyond the hill;
