Badger Descriptive

They all labeled downtown El Paso’s buildings. I looked at them, lost for I had no knowledge of what they were talking about. I was still just a bird hatching from the shell. I turned left and there it was, classroom A1518. The two large, dark wooden doors were opened and on top of them was the sign “ARCHITECTURE”. I stood there with my breath taken away from me. “So… This is it. This is why you came into Northwest. This is your purpose” I took a deep breath, slowly exhaled, and continued on forward. Inside was a large room with computers on most of the side walls and desks the size of tables were located in the middle. All of the other students’ eyes were on me. I got even more nervous. They probably asked themselves if I was lost because of course, who would expect a 15-year-old to take an architecture college class? I walked slowly towards the 2nd desk in the front row. I sat in the tall black chair as the sound of the AC and the computer fans grew bigger and bigger. I’ve never heard anymore silence in my life. I opened my backpack’s side apartment and took out my pencil and place it on the side of the dark brown desk. I looked around and saw another room inside of

The building was a marvel of modern engineering. A carbon neutral, solar and geothermal powered monument to the future. The outside of the building a sleek combination of recycled redwood and interlocking solar panels. The inside’s high vaulted ceilings and sleek white pillars formed a cavernous inner space. Three classrooms divided the building into working spaces. The bright L.E.D lighting and modern fixtures completed the buildings futuristic design. This building was the newest in a long line of additions to my middle school's campus.

Two examples that I find especially thought provoking are the Danziger studio and the Goldwyn Library. Built to blend into the local surroundings, the luxury residence was given a humble, rough exterior. Davis' explains that the rough exterior of the architecture reflects the underlying social phenomenon of "repression, surveillance and exclusion"(Davis, 224) that collectively forms the "fragmented, paranoid spatiality"(Davis, 229 ) that LA embodies. Moreover, The house's "camouflage"(Davis, 229 ) exterior creates a stark contrast to its luxurious interior, which places further emphasis on the exclusion and barrier between the "opulent"(Davis, 256) interior and the "rough"(Davis, 224 ) environment. I find Davis' assessment of the Daziger studio particularly agreeable and accurate as I truly believe that an architecture, its purpose and characteristic, sheds light to not only its physical environment but also its social environment, something that might not necessarily be as apparent. On the other hand, I find Davis' assessment of the Goldwyn library rather exaggerated. Judging from photos taken, the fifteen foot security wall is not as grotesque and 'fear-imposing' as Davis puts it. Davis described the library as "baroquely fortified...menacing...bizarre"(Davis, 246) and "paranoid"(Davis, 251). Although security and 'vandal-proof'' maybe, as Davis suggested, the initial goal of the design, I do not believe that it is as exaggerated as Davis

The coyote and badger is a great example of mutualism. Coyotes normally don’t hunt in packs or in tight knit groups but is often found hunting with the badger. The best example would be hunting in prairie dog fields. The coyote takes the prairie dogs on the ground while scaring other dogs into their holes where the badger is. When the badger hunts underground catching it’s prey it also scares dogs up to the ground where the coyote is. So basically the badger and coyote work together to corner up the prairie dogs and eat until they get their fill.

Badgers breed around late fall and autumn, when badgers breed they have up to 3 young ones. The boys are called boars, the girls are called sow, and a young badgers are called

Their skin is thick and tough. Arrows, spears, and bites from other animals can rarely pierce it. Small bullets can't even penetrate it. Not only is their skin thick and tough, it is also loose. This allows them to twist and turn to

Like the pictures of unity projected onto the wall and excellence, you gaze through the room and look, in an age of violence and crime plaguing inside the walls of Studio A is the multi-generational room that represents communities and generations from all over the city along with a few tourists from Europe. In an

Have you ever wondered what the world’s most fearless animal is? You might think it’s a lion, or a tiger, or a bear. However, according to the “Guinness Book of World Records,” this title belongs to the honey badger. The honey badger’s name means “Honey Eater of the Cape.” Native to South Africa, Asia, and India, the honey badger can live up to 25 years. They weigh up to 25 pounds and reach 2½ feet in length. The honey badger has a gray, black and white pelt. Because they are omnivores, they will eat literally anything (especially honey.) They are nocturnal and apparently lazy because they have been known to sleep in old aardvark dens, fox tunnels, and mongoose tunnels. But if they need a quick getaway the honey badger can dig a hold in a matter

When a photo of a wall covered in lush green foliage showed up on Grace Clarke’s Instagram feed, she felt an immediate urge to track it down. Stressed out and headed to a meeting at Madewell, where she works as a social media copy editor, Ms. Clarke saw that the wall’s location was on East Eighth Street in Manhattan at a meditation studio called MNDFL, which opened in November.

If you were to walked passed by the building, you will see a perfectly structured building until you take a step inside, an empty pathway with the ceiling lights flickering off and on as you walked straight down the path. There are some offices that has been demolished with holes and cracks on the old washed out colored walls. There’s papers laid out around you, as seem as they were being thrown out but not enough care was given to whether if it would have been made it in the trashcan. The hallway reeks of constructions being done on top of the roof. It’s the smell of steel and coal mixed together telling you exit the building if you don’t want to smell it any

What animal looks like a skunk, smells like a skunk, and is not afraid of a lion? It is the honey badger. Honey badgers are a type of weasel found in Africa and western Asia. They have a long whitish-gray stripe down their backs, and they can spray a stinky liquid. They have a reputation for being fierce and tough.

A) Physical setting; built in 1932 and was originally owned by Union Pacific Railroad and later occupied by Yellow Freight Distribution, whose sign still hangs next to the female restrooms. From the exterior of the building, I noticed the long wooden open deck area that leads into the event stage area, full of neon lights. Inside the famous ice house, a big wooden square bar full of various kinds of liquor and a blue sign that read independent ice company as I passed through the two glass doors and took several steps, I noticed the ordering area for the amazing food it serves and the square style indoor full of sports memorabilia next to the booth. The long narrow hallway that leads to the boy’s restroom was full of autographed pictures

The significance of this specific building is apparent from the moment you enter its domain. The door, witch is not shaped like a door you will find in an average office building or home, is designed to be deliberately dark, narrow,

At this time it was roughly 10:30. Mr. Dietzenbach had a job site visit with a client at 11:00 a few blocks over. So Brad and I, plus another Architect whose name I never got, walked the three blocks to the job site. On our walk over they explained that it was a

Now that you have walked through the threshhold you doubt the various rumors. The room is average; nothing appears to be extraordinary. But you know survival starts with an appreciation for the small things in life. To the left of the entrance there is a frame that is old and worn. You can almost feel the gritty texture of the beige chipped paint. The glass is untarnished, except for the risen inscription. The words are bold in meaning as well as in their font. They are written in such
