Summary: Beach Bums
I have always been very pleased with the items I buy at Beach Bums. I must admit that I am a little name brand snobby as in I have Lilly Pulitzer/Janie and Jack taste but a Carter's clearance budget. At beach bums I have been able to snag Janie and Jack shirts for $3-$4 (usually on clearance $15 or higher) I usually make about $200-$250 on the clothes I sold at the sale and I spend around $100 for my son's new clothes. This has been a huge help for our family with our budget for clothes, toys, etc.

    Times Beach Case Study

    Located just southwest of St. Louis, and 2 miles east of Eureka in an old flood plain used for farming, lies a ghost town called Times Beach, Missouri. Originally being marketed as a summer hideaway, one could purchase a 20 x 100 ft. lot for $67.50 in 1925 and even receive a six-month newspaper subscription. After the Great Depression and gas rationing during World War II, the town became a small community of low-middle-class economic citizens. In 1983, due to a dioxin contamination that was widely covered by the national media, the town’s citizens were completely evacuated, becoming the largest civilian exposure to dioxin in the history of the United States of America (Leistner, 1995). Two short years after the evacuation…

    Beach Bum Case Summary

    Beach Bum’s job advertisement has included some exclusionary words that would keep some applicants from apply to a lifeguard position. The use of “look good in bikini” would be discriminating against males due to the fact females wear bikini and it could result in disparate treatment lawsuit. Also, the use of “look good in bikini” would be discriminating against religion due to the fact some religions does not allow its practicing members to wear such garments.

Another view of “look good in bikini” could discriminate against some women and men that do not have a particular body type. A fourth view of “look good in bikini” could exclude those that are qualified that are over the age of 40. A fifth problem with the job advertisement is the words “work on tan” this could discriminate against people based on race because not all races work on their tans. A sixth problem with the job posting is “home for the summer” this could be looked upon as the employer is only looking…

    Personal Narrative: The Fugitive Beach In Rolla Beach

    Over the summer in late July a couple friends and I decided that we were going to go to The Fugitive Beach in Rolla, Missouri. It took a little over two hours to get there but it was well worth it. At the beach they have cliffs to jump off of and a slide that goes off the cliffs. So we sat in the water and watched people do flips off the cliffs. While we were watching, this guy tried to do a backflip and landed on his back. It sounded horrible and like it hurt a lot. Everyone at the beach cheered and yelled like it was a good thing that happened. The guy then came up and acted fine but everyone knew that it had to have hurt. At first I was kinda worried that he wouldn’t come above the water or that he was hurt but once he came up we all cheered…

    Descriptive Essay: A Trip To Coney Beach

    When one thinks of summer, it immediately comes to mind the sight of sandy beaches, amusement parks and hot sunny days. Coney Island, an extravagant vacation playground to visit especially for the summer. I have recently had an opportunity to come to such a wonderful place that the sights are still engraved in my mind. There were other attractions that I have missed out on mainly since I had only one day there. If time was not an issue, I would have definitely visited more programs that they provide. Getting there is also not a problem due to their cheap and handy subway system. One thing to be cautioned about is that it can get extremely busy on the weekends, so the best time to be there would be on the weekdays, especially if you do not want…

    It is spring break, in the middle of March, my junior year. As I cross the state line into Florida, I picture the ocean as being a place of peace and serenity. It’s my first time visiting the ocean, and all I can think about is hoping it is as beautiful as the pictures I have seen of it.
