The documentary about the Japanese holding camp was very intriguing. Topaz is an important part of American history. Therefore, high school curriculums should indeed involve this historical event in their teaching. I have learned about Topaz when I was enlisted in the military. However, I never learned about it in high school. Consequently, history will repeat itself if we cannot learn from it. Topaz, in my opinion was wrong. I’m a disable veteran with combat time. I never knew the actual experiences

laughter in the bush as Malvolio further deludes himself upon reading aloud the letter. In (A4:S2) Feste presents himself to the imprisoned Malvolio as ‘Sir Topaz the curate’ Taking on a disguise which requires no physical disguising as Malvolio cannot see Feste. The relevance of this disguise is in the name Feste gives himself. ‘Topaz’ is a yellow stone which reminds the

Take away the fool, gentlemen (act #, scene #, line 3).   Adding to the humor of the comedy, Feste dresses up as Sir Topaz, the curate and visits the imprisoned Malvolio with Maria and Sir Toby. There he uses his humor to abuse Malvolio who is still unaware that he is actually talking to the clown rather than to the real Sir Topaz. Feste (disguised as Sir Topaz) calls Malvolio a "lunatic" (IV.ii.23), "Satan"(IV.ii.32) and confuses him by wittingly making him a fool. Throughout the play

individuals who daydream abuse their creativity to envision highly unlikely and unrealistic situations. In Julie Otsuka’s novel, When the Emperor was Divine, a Japanese-American boy and girl were removed from their residence and then relocated to the Topaz internment camp following the issuance of Executive Order 9066. During their three year stay at the camp, they frequently fantasized about returning home. They wondered what their future reintegration into society would be like. Would their friends

In her opening lines of this particular poem, Suyemoto speaks of the physical build of the barracks she lived in at the Topaz, Utah camp. These lines are written, “This is our barracks, squatting on the ground,/ Tar-papered shack, partitioned into rooms/ By sheetrock walls, transmitting every sound/ Of neighbors’ gossip, or the sweep of brooms.” This describes how thin the

Birth Stones The first association of a special gem with each month was recorded in the Bible, in Exodus 28 and 39. An original breastplate of the High Priest of the Hebrews was said to be made by Moses in 1250 BC, according to instructions he received during 40 days in the mountains. The 12 gems in the breastplate were later linked with the signs of the zodiac, and later still associated with the months in the year. Different cultures have different lists. Jewelers’ lists are often inconsistent

There is a constant war between ancient and modern methodology. Some people see astrology as merely a superstition, while others have given scientific reasons behind it. Astrology is spreading throughout the modern era and has a wider acceptance now more than ever. We see celebrities, business tycoons, and many everyday citizens wearing stones to either enhance luck or fend off peril. It is said in Hindu mythology that when the demon king Bali was killed, gems came out of his body as a symbol of
