    Ruby Moon Analysis

    As the director and dramaturge for a fully mounted production of, Ruby Moon by Matt Cameron for a festival with a focus on Australian society I must select a relevant scene for an audience to promote the entire play. Ruby Moon was written in 2003 by Matt Cameron (1969), a Melbourne playwright who was heavily “influenced by headlines in the newspaper” regarding missing children which sparked many of his plot lines. His plays, in particular Ruby Moon, comment on the notion of a decimated community where there is no longer any communication between neighbours and how the suburbs are now deemed as unsafe and frightening. This is the paradox of Flaming Tree Grove, the street where Ruby Moon sets off to visit her grandmothers and is never seen again.…

    These events mark the start of the seasons; the equinoxes occur on or about March 21 and Sep 22, while the solstices occur on or about June 21 and December 21. 25. How is an annular eclipse of the Sun different from a total eclipse? What causes this difference? In both annular and total solar eclipses, the Moon lines up precisely with the Sun, center on center. The difference is that in an annular eclipse, the Moon fails to cover the Sun completely, leaving a bright ring. This is caused by the Moon being farther away than usual – its orbit isn’t exactly circular – so that its angular size is smaller. Variation in the distance to the Sun also contributes, since Earth’s orbit is likewise not precisely circular. But the variation in Moon angular size is greater. 27. At what phase(s) of the moon does a solar eclipse occur? A lunar…

    Walk Two Moons Analysis

    In the novel Walk Two Moons by Sharon Creech Sal’s father accuses Sal of “trying to catch fish in the air” (pg. 75) because she was trying to get her father to stop seeing Mrs. Cadaver to get her mother to come back. The author uses this idiom to show that Sal is doing something that is a waste of time because it is impossible to catch fish from the air and it is impossible for Sal’s mother to come back. There have been times in my life when I have tried to do something that turned out to be impossible. For example, yesterday I went to the Oktoberfest in Yorba Linda and there was a silent auction. There was a specific item up for bid that I really wanted. It was a one week rental for a fancy house with eight bedrooms and an ocean view…

    Tide Waves Research Paper

    At this time the high tides are higher than normal and the low tides are lower thn normal. This is known as a spring tide. Spring tides are especially strong tides (but they do not have anything to do with the season Spring). They occur when the Earth, the Sun, and the Moon are in a line. The gravitational forces of the Moon and the Sun both, make the tides much stronger. During the moon's quarter phases the sun and moon work at right angles causing the bulges to cancel each other out. As a result there is a much smaller difference between high and low tides and is known as a neap tide. Neap tides are very weak tides. They occur when the gravitational forces of the Moon and the Sun are perpendicular to one…

He illustrates wide knowledge and facts to explain how some of the information is faulty and how the world has benefited and still continues to benefit from our trips to the moon. Harlan also states the original writing dismissed too quickly the arguments from the oppose and describes that for the right reasons most of the population would agree with further endeavors to not only the moon but beyond.

    In the text the narrator’s style of writing reveals his attitude toward the people he describes. He feels as if the gentlefolks are inconsiderate, unnecessarily curious, people with nothing but idle time on their hands. This attitude is shown in the text by how the narrator first describes how life is with idle time. Then, he later explains some of the behaviors of them. Lastly, he uses pitiful words as he compares life of people with idle time to the ones without idle time. Overall the narrator feels as if gentlefolks have nothing to do so they resort to behaviors in which they harm more than help.…

    The Rising of the Moon is a work intended by Gregory to sympathize with the socialist cause. Not only does “The Rising of the Moon” serve to reiterate the Man’s position as an escaped political prisoner, it reflects the socialist beliefs of Gregory. The Man’s parting words with the Sergeant have revolutionary undertones, “Well, good-night, comrade, and thank you. You did me a good turn to-night, and I’m obliged to you. Maybe I’ll be able to do as much for you when the small rise up and the big fall down…when we all change places at the rising of the Moon” (Gregory 57). The Man refers to the Sergeant as his “comrade,” a word often associated with socialist rhetoric. The Man’s comment “when the small rise up and the big fall down” suggests the inevitable revolution Socialists claims will take place when the proletariats (workers) would overthrow the bourgeoisie (owners).…

    Lunar Eclipse occurs when the earth comes between the sun and the moon in such a way that it blocks the sun’s rays completely from reaching the moon. Solar Eclipse occurs when the moon passes between the earth and the sun in such a way that the sun is totally blocked from view. Lunar Eclipse only occurs on the full moon night which means that the moon is on the other side of the earth from the sun. Solar eclipse always occurs on the new moon which means that the moon is almost between earth and the sun. During a Solar Eclipse looking directly at the sun is very dangerous and can cause permanent damage to the retina. Use of a certified solar filter or use of special glasses is advised. During the Lunar Eclipse the moon is completely safe to look at and can be watched for as long as you want.…
