Film acting used to involve memorizing lines as well as acting. Actors weren't allowed to have scripts with them while filming because they were supposed to have memorized their lines well in advance. Such was the way of the film actors.

Some actors, however, still hold on to the tradition of memorizing their lines and performing without the aid of a teleprompter. These actors' performances are often seen as being less stiff and more realistic than those who rely on teleprompters.

The modern architecture of Western culture began in the late 1800s as a reaction against the ornate styles of the 19th century. It valued practical construction over artistic or decorative design. Its designs were simple and functional and showed no unnecessary ornamentation or decoration. Modern architects designed buildings using basic geometric shapes and heavy materials such as concrete and steel. The modern architecture of the West is also known as the International Style because of the many countries whose architects contributed to it. Modern architects were united in their rejection of the past.

Led by such modern masters as Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, Le Corbusier, Walter Gropius, and Alvar Aalto, this style dominated the world of architecture until the late 1950s.

The universe is so vast that scientists have not been able to find an end to it. To help us better understand the universe, scientists have divided it into segments. The divisions are based on things such as size and distance. Because the universe is so large, each division is divided again and again to include smaller units. For example, a star is a small, light dot in the night sky. It is one of the many objects that surround the Earth. It is smaller than the planets the Earth orbits around, which are smaller than the sun that the Earth circles in the solar system, which is smaller than the galaxy that the solar system circles in the Milky Way. The Milky Way is an average-sized galaxy in a cluster of billions of galaxies that are part of the universe.

When management and employees don't work together, the whole company suffers. Employees who feel like their concerns aren't being heard are going to lose respect for the company and may be more likely to come to work late, skip work, or do a poor job. Companies who ignore their employees' needs don't have a lot of success. While they may be making money, they are losing out on potential growth. The more the company values its workers and their opinions, the more motivated employees are likely to be. If a company doesn't have good workers, they won't have a good company.
