Because by day many members of Ocean View didn't have much, if anything, good to say about him. But by night, when the weed ran dry or when the inhabitants of the park needed some other form of party favor, suddenly Steaks was their man.…

    People who are really good friends of mine or good observers have noticed that I wear a dolphin ring on my left ring finger. I have had this ring since the summer of 2007. This ring is a souvenir from my favorite family vacation. Nine years ago, my family and I traveled to San Antonio, Texas. While we were there, we visited the river walk, the mall, the Alamo, Sea World, Six Flags, and the zoo. All of those destinations were fun and each has a story to tell, but my favorite one was our day at Sea World.…

    • 4 Pages

    In The Old Man and the Sea, Ernest Hemingway presents the fisherman Santiago as the ideal man--independent in his action, eager to follow his calling, and willing to take chances in life. The old man's most notable attribute, however, appears to be his unquenchable spirit: no matter how his body is beaten, his spirit remains undefeated, undefeatable, through all trials. In Santiago, the central character in The Old Man and the Sea, Hemingway has created a hero who personifies honor, courage, endurance, and faith. (Thesis Sentence)…

    • 4 Pages

    In the book The Old Man and the Sea, Ernest Hemingway uses the flashback technique in order to characterize Santiago and develop key themes of the novel, such as Santiago’s connection with nature and what it means to be a hero. Hemingway employs several flashbacks as an effective technique that develops Santiago’s character as he recalls past occurrences in order to renew his strength of will. There are three flashbacks in particular that are critical to the development of this story. The first flashback describes a time when Santiago associated himself with the marlins. The second flashback occurs when Santiago arm-wrestled the town’s strongest competitor. The third flashback discusses lions, as lions symbolize strength Santiago’s strength of will and s sense of heroic renewal throughout the novel.…

    Most people that are old have little ambition to do anything, complain about everything, are brittle, and even senile. So one could reasonably ask how the stoic but old Cuban fisherman Santiago could possibly go without catching a fish for 87 days and then fight a fish two feet longer than his skiff and probably ten times Santiago’s weight for three days while remaining calm, collective, and strong. In Ernest Hemingway’s novel, The Old Man and the Sea, one learns the tale of Santiago’s epic voyage to bring in the catch of his life. Through his pride, his endurance, and his love of nature, it is seen why Santiago is a Hemingway hero.…

    Waterscapes

    • 2731 Words
    • 11 Pages

    Water has supported the landscapes of our civilizations. Earth’s evolution and transformation is due to water. Nowadays we are facing complex urban development processes leading to completely new challenges concerning the management and design of urban infrastructure systems and landscapes. Water can improve spatial quality by creating an attractive and spacious place. Landscape architects, planners and designers know better the fundamentals of water and its power in transforming our landscapes. This means that it is water that allows us to reaffirm our commitments to landscape. The potentials of nowadays water infrastructure systems for shaping urban form and meeting human, ecological and aesthetic objectives have almost been lost. The processes of extreme and unpredictable urban growth and decline are leading to huge challenges concerning the affordability and functioning of present water conceptions and demand new innovative solutions. The appearance of water infrastructure systems, further accentuating natural physical landscape structure became a visual and spatial component of structuring and organizing cultural landscapes. The relationships between natural and human processes are based on a deep understanding of complex processes. Water infrastructure was able of creating synergies with other important urban functions, serving as an open space network for social needs. However the increasing pressure, intensity and speed of urbanization led to the disappearance of any visible forms of water infrastructure in most cities. The transformation of nature through urban development has resulted in a disturbed ecosystem. Among the many consequences of a disturbed hydrologic cycle are polluted waterways because of sewer overflows and urban runoff, subsiding land due to a diminished water table, and city dwellers that are deprived of experiencing the fundamental life force of water. Urban infrastructure built…
