...Topic: Tahrir Squire “Revolution” word was very prominent in Tsunami Khan’s speeches, but another revolutionary person is now in the field. This revolutionary person came with slogan “Save the state instead of politics”. I was amazed when he succeeded in gathering thousands of people at Minar-e-Pakistan on 23rd December 2012. I was thinking who can be this person, from where he came, where he was till now and what can be his aim? Dr. Tahir Al Qadri, is in fact a religious scholar, he has been living in Canada before arriving to Pakistan. On his very speech he expressed that he wants reforms. He threatened the government to bring reforms until 10th of January, 2013 otherwise 14th January would be day of the long march. What kind of reforms, he was unable to tell. I assumed that he is going to bring reforms in constitution. He wants Islamization in Pakistan. There were many estimates whether Dr. Tahir is going to establish a political party, whether he wants change without elections, whether he mis-guiding the people. New Year arrived, it started with a lot of violence and bomb blasts in Karachi. I was in front of television. I heard the news that Dr. Tahir has joined MQM. Now he will be working as right hand of Altaf Hussain. He addressed in a large gathering. Long march was changed to Tahrir Squire. He assured the public and government that it would be the world’s largest and peaceful. It caused a lot of horror in the minds of ruling party. A person, who was confessed that...

...by Geoffry Chaucer, he tells a story about a knight and a squire. The knight and the squire just so happen to be father and son. Even though they are both aiming to be great and noble knights, they have different ways of getting there. Although they bear some minor similarities the difference between the knight and the squire are quit, clear. The knight is the most respected and honorable person on the pilgrimage. For example, he is motivated by his religion, and his service to the king. This shows that he is willing to put others and God before himself. This is important because this shows characteristics of a true and noble knight. In addition, the knight also does not care about how he dresses. He wears a fustian tunic stained with dark smudges from his armor. Therefore, this reflects on all the hard work the knight has put into battle. As a result the knight is what every knight should be....

...In the prologue of the Canterbury Tales by Chaucer, he portrays the Squire as an aesthetically focused character and a fine knight-to-be, with fitting diction, and similes to describe the elegance, and desire for love of the young man, along with polysyndeton to list the endless talents of the Squire. Chaucer also shows the reader a stark contrast between the Squire and his father, the Knight, in how they carry themselves despite being in the same aristocratic societal class. The Squire, as described in the prologue, can be seen as fancy, talented, and respectable. Chaucer's diction aids in developing the Squire. In line 81, Chaucer calls him ,"...fine [and] young...", establishing quickly to the audience the Squire is to be respected, and falls into a class higher than that of many others. The Knight's son is also youthful and energetic, "...a lad of fire...", an intentional introduction on line 82 which leads into the illustration of the Squire's physical appearance of average height, swiftness and muscularity. Chaucer distinguishes the character's...

...Ariel Johnson Art of Theatre Play review Almost Maine I will be writing my play review on Almost Maine, A story about many different love stories and characters that go through many obstacles and challenges when trying to find love. I will get into my analysis of the actors in da play and how they grabbed my attention. In the beginning of the segment there were two characters, male and female who were sitting on the floor during a cold snowy Friday night; in the middle of winter. Due to the effects that there was white powder that surrounded the area and the actors were shivering and wearing heavy clothing. Throughout the segment, they both wore scarfs, hats and jackets. The actors used the empty spaces as the lines were spoken. Later on in other segments the use of props were of special value. For example in one scene characters used clay making of a shaped cartoon heart to indicate a broken heart. A Glass bottle was used as a beer bottle full of beer although it contained no liquid at all. The use of unseen spaces were very active throughout the play the knocks behind the stage were of somebody knocking on the door and the curtains displayed as a door in almost every scene. One scene in particular changed the way the curtains this time they weren’t used as a door they were used as sets of people in a party in which a hostess could be called just by the sound of a holler. The play itself used a lot of space on the stage. Each scene involved a new space that included some...
