This paper examines the issue of communication in Harold Pinter's The Dumb Waiter. The main characters Gus and Ben are simple characters and their means of communication are the central theme in this play. It shows that even though the two characters interact and talk and discuss, they don't really communicate. The essence of the difference between just talking and really communicating is analyzed.
Spoken English isn't really literate, but then it doesn't really have to be. It just needs to be a means of communication. Some people can puff it up into a powerful tool that can move millions when they speak publicly, although you can search through Canadian politics until your eyeballs are empty and blind without finding one today, but most of us get along just by mumbling and stumbling our way through life. Spoken English lives like Topsy, however. It just grows, spontaneously, magically, by the day, by the hour, by the minute. Your officially semi-literate kid might come home from school with a new word every day, but it wouldn't be from the classroom; it would come from the playground.
REGULATORY AUTHORITIES are constantly scrutinizing organizations, making sure they are ensuring worker safety. Among the many areas of concern that need to be addressed is the area of work alone and check-in policies, and the responsibility of organizations to maintain communications in the field, especially in emergency situations. According to occupational health and safety legislation, employers are required to establish an effective means of communication between the worker and persons capable of responding to the worker's needs. It is possible to maintain voice and basic text messaging contact through the use of portable satellite communications. However, deploying satellite phones for every worker is expensive and can be beyond many budgets. In addition, satellite phones, while fa...

The pipeline goes within 300 metres of the Eden Valley reserve. There is approximately 650 residents (and) normal ERCB rules provide that such a sour gas pipeline, and this is what they call a level three pipeline, cannot go within 1.5 km of the boundary of an urban centre, which would include a village, town, or city," said Douglas Rae, lawyer for the Stoney Nakoda Nation. "We're committed to working with Eden Valley to ensure that an effective emergency response plan is in place for the residents," says [Kyle Happy]. "Obviously the plan would include appropriate means of communication, notification, effective methods of shelter in place and protocols for evacuation. Some or all of which may be required in the unlikely event of an emergency. While Happy concedes he's "not privy to th...
The work has to stay honest for me and the audience," he says. "I can't do it just for the sake of doing it. I don't like theatre that much. [Guy] adapted The Telephone from avant-garde French writer Jean Cocteau's 1930 monologue called La Voix Humaine (The Human Voice), the story of a woman's last desperate phone call to an ex-lover before she kills herself. It's an attractive aria for an actress such as Ingrid Bergman, who performed it on television in 1966. Winnipeg's Carolyn Gray will do the honours for Adhere And Deny. Cocteau (1889-1963) penned his most performed work to placate female actors who accused him of stifling their talents. "It's The Telephone because it's the last means of communication for her with her ex-lover," he says. "It becomes a weapon of war. I don't like th...

I want to use the mosaic that I've installed on my house as a means of communication and sharing. I have always enjoyed the beauty of art around me. My family enjoys seeing the art I create and the artworks I purchase from other artists. When I walk out the door, I love to see the beautiful colours of the mosaic. Those colours evoke celebration and inclusion," said Akinbolaji, 47, who immigrated to Winnipeg in September 1997 from Lagos, Nigeria, at the invitation of relatives. "My work is not complete until people have enjoyed seeing it," says the former president of the Manitoba Society of Artists, whose latest large mosaic work in Nigeria is entitled The Good Shepherd and was installed in Ikeja, Lagos in "a limited colour palette. "I applied a liquid sealer over the tiles for maximu...

Absorptive capacity and national culture have been two major constructs in management and organisation research during the past two decades. However, there have been no endeavours to develop an integrative perspective. By means of a literature analysis, the present research develops an integrative model, building upon dynamic capabilities view and institutional theory. Propositions suggest that the adoption and the implementation of absorptive capacity are subject to national culture.
... capacity implies a high extent of communication sharing activities, both with external institution...
