    chief secret of our art” (Stanislavski, 1936). When analyzing Nicolas Cage, it is clear that he provides his own inspiration; yet he does not receive the sort of recognition an actor of his talents might deserve. This leads to Nicolas Cage being one of the most polarizing actors of all time and yet I believe that Cage is perhaps also one of the greatest performers of his generation. My reasons for this are noted in Cage’s two academy awards and his ability to commit to every role he is put in. Also, when looking at a selected filmography, it is clear that he can create complex and interesting characters through ‘Method Acting’, the acting style the great Stanislavski developed himself. With a career lasting over thirty years in a creative field such as acting, some bad choices are to be made as well.

    Step in the Arena I suppose it was only a matter of time until we were presented with Luke’s origin story, but I appreciate the show’s forethought into giving it such a well-timed placement within the overall narrative. By waiting until now, Luke Cage avoided feeling too similar to many other superhero stories that can’t resist showing us a character’s history right away. Had it waited any longer, it could have run the risk of putting too much distance between the audience and the action…

    Bearded dragons are native to the deserts of Australia, and as such, thrive in hot environments. However, they need some water too and striking that delicate balance between humidity and heat can cause some health issues. Like most infections and diseases, it all goes back to husbandry. Like all reptiles, bearded dragons are prone to respiratory infections. These are typically caused by their habitat being too cold or too humid.

    quilt is a symbol of Minnie's agitation--her anger. The men, though, laugh at the women's wonderings about the quilt and its peculiar knot. Likewise, the canary and its cage are easily dismissed. In fact, the men just as easily believe a lie about this bird and cage. When the cage is noticed, its hinge pulled apart and broken door unnoticed, the county attorney asks, "'Has the bird flown?'" Mrs. Peters replies that the "'cat got it'" (1332). There is actually no such cat, but the men do…

    catch his little unsuspecting victims as they went about their travels foraging for food. Timothy commonly would like to use peanut butter as bait inside the metal cage traps he would leave near the tall oak trees at the very edge of his yard. Then, when he would catch a hungry squirrel, he would get that feeling he craved so much, that feeling of absolute power running through his veins, adrenaline. Being able to play God for Timothy was better than Christmas morning, better than pizza,…

    her cage with her back pressed against the bars and a contemptuous frown marring her otherwise pretty face. Her pale blue eyes tracked the movements of everyone around her but day in and day out she focused on one in particular, a hooded man who she watched picking out slaves from the rows of cages on either side of her. She hated him the most and every night before she went to bed she vowed that she would have her revenge. She had never been to a dwarven town before but she promised herself…

    the ball. Mij had decided that it was time. She stood up, grabbed her purse, went into the hallway, and picked up Mark very gently. Mij began to cry, and she just couldn’t stop thinking that what she was about to do was so wrong. She kept telling herself that it was for Alled. Mark stared at Mij, wondering why his owner was shedding tears. Mark nudged his furry head against Mij’s face, trying to wipe her tears. Mij walked through the front door, turned around, locked the apartment, and stepped…
