Usually we think
of theatre as just the reflection of society, holding the mirror up to life as
Hamlet place it and if theatre influences the supporting scene, changes
people's lives, or promotes cultural growth, then it's due to its emotional or thinker
effect on individuals, working as a merely cerebral catalyst. And while a presentation
may (in just the right circumstances, as with Clifford Odets' conventional
agitprop, waiting for Lefty) provoke the spectators to an exact
and urgent act, any longer-term impact is subliminal, and almost not possible
to trace. However, there is a really striking instance of just the reverse:
theatre directly shaping the way of life and expectations of culture. And
although this goes back to the age between about 1925 and 1950, the new civilization
in inquiry was America;
and the American idea of modernity has spread all over the place.
Not only in the
shape of Disneyworld in France, or the same Hilton Hotels, but during
Hollywood, clothing and style, advertising styles, even the method our goods
are packaged. So this instance is still highly relevant today- as well as signifying
latest avenues that contemporary theatre might pursue. There's actually an
Austrian connection here, since Urban was born and trained in Vienna,
opening his artistic career as a creator of the Hagenbund and designing landscape
for the Burgtheater. And previous to now at the turn of the century he had
begun turning community places into stage-settings as with the Rathaus Keller,
where his designs can still be seen nowadays though like that decoration, most
of his Austrian work was very much medieval, looking back to a romanticized
past rather than forwards to future.

In the same way,
if the name of Norman Bel Geddes is still well-known, it is almost certainly
only because of his enormous and unrealized plans for the Divine Comedy, which anxious
a huge theater seating 7,000 spectators its phase, 165 feet long by 135 feet broad,
rising around a middle pit to four cliff-like peaks approximately 100 feet high
and called for over 500 actors and singers. He even made thorough cost
estimates- in his mind; a modest $266,000 would do for building, with an
additional $40,000 to practice the shed and musicians. At something future
$4.5m in today's dollars this was by any standards an important investment for
a building that was designed for a solitary play. In subject and concept it too
was in a few ways a throwback to an idea.

cash, food, you name it. Unluckily, the role of the average human has changed erratically
in the past few decades. People have in progress to realize what they can and
cannot get absent with. For some people, this form of behavior has even become
a way of life. They believe that in today's civilization, crime has become a main,
if not the top communal problem today. When you look at today's statistics from
decades, even centuries back, you will definitely see a pattern at first. Of
course crime existed back then. However, look closer at the statistics:
Speakeasies don't exist anymore, treason and assassinations aren't too popular
nowadays either.

Crime is most surely taking a twist
for the worst nowadays, because it has evolved to what we know at the present
as modern crime. Nowadays, crimes are dedicated about every 3 seconds. That is a
disgraceful number, particularly to other countries with a much inferior rate.
You can blame it on many things- scarcity, population density, urbanization; I
blame it on dishonesty, ease, convenience. Far too many people are culpable of illegal
activity nowadays, and what's inferior is that far too many are getting away
scot-free.
Nowadays in America,
heart disease and strokes cause nearly half of all deaths and severely reduce
the quality of life for a lot of people. Both diseases have the equal underlying
cause, which is atherosclerosis, a situation in which cholesterol, fat and
calcium harden, narrow and ultimately plug the arteries. This course takes many
years and gives almost no clues until the arteries have 50 to 80 percent obstruction.
While there are a few risk factors for cardiovascular illness that they can't
change, like as age and sex, there are a little that they can do something
about. According to the Framing-ham Heart Study the six mainly vital modifiable
danger factors are high cholesterol, cigarette smoking, high blood pressure, fatness,
diabetes and physical idleness.
The quantity of
cholesterol in the blood is one of the three most vital danger factors for
atherosclerosis. Study shows that the danger of death from heart disease
increases when cholesterol exceeds 150mg/dl. However that isn’t the whole image.
Cholesterol comes in two forms: the bad kind and the good kind. MDL in fact
protects them from atherosclerosis by removing cholesterol from the arteries.
An HDL stage of 75mg/dl drops heart disease danger to near zero, while a stage
of 25mg/dl or lower raises the danger very elevated. A particularly harmful kind
of cholesterol (oxidized cholesterol) is found in Parmesan cheese, lard, dry
mixes that hold powdered milk or eggs, like as custard and pancake mixes and
other processed foods containing cholesterol and sugar. Some of the chemicals
in oxidized cholesterol are so poisonous they can cause permanent damage to major
walls in less than 24 hours.

Obesity, a main danger
factor for heart disease, diabetes and premature mortality, is a leading community
health concern these days. National surveys have calculated the BMI (Body Mass
Index, the percentage of weight to height) occasionally since 1980, when the
first fully envoy survey showed that the preponderance was of normal weight or skinny
(BMI under 25) and six percent of men and eight percent of women were obese. Then,
fatness has increased to 13 percent and 16 percent correspondingly in 1993 and
23 percent and 25 percent by 2005. Since the mid of 1990s about four men out of
10 and nearly a third of women have been fat and the proportion of people with usual
weight has declined.
Feminine obesity
is inversely correlated with communal class and earnings- fatness is highest
among low earnings women in unskilled occupations- where socio-economic factors
make rather less dissimilarity to male heaviness. These trends occur in the
face of a multi-million pound slimming business. Health education recommendation
has proved unsuccessful and tackling fatness is now a key administration
priority. Science of Living is a resolution to every these problems. It is a
happy blending of antique and up to date sciences, or, in other words, the mixture
of the ancient understanding and the present scientific knowledge for
developing an integrated character through attitudinal modify and behavioral change.
It is an optimistic resolve for creating a well human society- healthy in all
respects physically, emotionally and sensitively.
It is a system
of training people from al1 walks of life in development of inborn powers. It
is helpful for various departments of public management including all
government agencies. The widest submission of the Science of Living is in the grassland
of education, both formal and informal. Here we shall talk about the Science of
Living as a novelty in the field of teaching hitherto unconcealed. It is
obvious that the main reason of schooling should be character-development, mind
equilibrium and harmony of mind. Alas, this point has been completely ignored by
the educationists. The modern system of education does possess elements which
are well-organized enough to expand the intellect and talent potential. If this
was not so, how could it have shaped scientists, doctors and engineers?
But, inspite of
becoming a specialist in one's individual field by education, one does suffer
from huge mental tensions, because he has not been trained how to relax. An extremely
learned person may be full of mental distortions like as unkindness,
retaliation etc. They may be surprised when a talented scientist commits
suicide, say under the unbearable stress of covetousness or hopelessness. They
would be justified in asking- Did this highly educated person not learn to uphold
emotional equilibrium during pressure situation? Does their educational system
contribute everything at all to arrange the future citizen to learn to relax
and uphold mental balance and peace under the present demanding conditions? It
is plentifully clear that we shall have to addition and augment the present
system with such preparation that can strengthen the student's reasoning mind, add
to his capacity for bearing pressure instead of buckling down and help him to restrain
horror, covetousness, hatred and desire.
