Where is the perfect seat? Is it near the front so that the screen fills your visual field? Is it in the back so that in the dark the screen is at a natural height for the eyes? Or is it in the center of the movie theater where the speakers are at the perfect distance to optimize the sound? Only the very first person to enter an empty theater has the opportunity to make a seating decision based solely on visual and sound preferences.

Culture is important because when trying to do a presentation to get a message across to an audience who many of which may belong to the same culture.…
Upon initial observation of my surroundings I could see that the audience is quiet and well mannered, patiently waiting for the performers to make their appearance. It was orderly and sophisticated and the majority of the audience was dressed formally to suit the occasion. The concert began promptly at 6pm, when the conductor Elaine AuBuchon entered the stage with the full theater clapping. She greeted all the audience and started the concert formally. As the performers entered they were greeted with applause and bow to the audience before they take their positions. Applause was also given when the musicians complete a…

By making eye contact you are directing your conversation at that specific person, demonstrating that you are devoting your time and are not able to be distracted as if you would by looking around.…

On August 5, 2010, in Chile there was a cave-in in a little copper mine that trapped thirty-three miners three hundred meters underground with limited food, water, and oxygen. No one knew for certain whether or not the miners had survived the cave-in and if they had if they would survive long enough to be rescued. Four days after the cave-in, with rescue crews working around the clock, it was still unknown whether or not anyone had survived. There were no previous incidents in which miners had survived underground for an extended period of time according to Yang, 2010. Fortunately, to everyone’s amazement all of the miners made it out alive and this horrible incident went down in history without claiming a single life.…
