In Hawkins’s essay, she writes about how Kelvin planned to “establish a link between the ‘most powerful emotions--despair, grief and pleasure’--and the electrical discharges from the ocean” (Hawkins). The ocean’s electrical discharges are similar to the electrical charges from our brains that occur when we feel emotions. The ocean could sense those feelings, specifically, the strongly repressed ones. When an emotion is not released and is contained, it becomes repressed. The ocean made physical recreations of these emotions because it thought that was how it could communicate with the humans. The first time Kelvin meets him, Snow is drunk. This is a sign of repressed emotions. Each time he drinks, it is most likely to provide a brief moment …show more content…
He feels guilty because he knows that he is the reason that she killed herself back on Earth. The guilt he felt was always there, it was just repressed. Now, Rheya serves as a constant reminder of what he did. Unlike the original Rheya, this Rheya is unbelievably strong and intolerably dependent. Rheya is a metaphor for guilt. She represents how strongly it can affect someone and how it is continually there. He tries to send her away, but one can never really get rid of their guilt. Launching Rheya into space is only an inconvenience that delays her for a short time. He thinks he might love Rheya and promises to go back to Earth with her. However, this proclamation of love is just another repressed emotion. When you are suffering from repressed emotions, your actions are based off of your reactions to the past as well as the present. He remembers how he loved Rheya and he thinks that he can love this Rheya the same way. However, he cannot love this Rheya because he does not understand her. Rheya does not understand herself either. She cannot comprehend who or what she is, because she is a creation of the ocean. The ocean did not realize the affect emotions have and how Rheya’s love for Kelvin would drive her to suicide. She signs her suicide note as Rheya, but then she crosses it out. This is because the identity she has been given is Rheya, but she is only a copy. She is not the original, the ‘real’ Rheya. Her
I examine how rising or falling tide can affect the water level of Corte Madera Salt Marsh in this report. The data is from Wednesday (June 19th) and Thursday (June 20th). My hypothesis is that tide and water level have positive relationship. From the result, I learn that the water level and tide have positive relationship. However, when tide changes its direction, the water level is likely to stay or little change.
Burroughs talks about how the sea is contradictory on its own, in its immensity. It mocks its victims “with the most horrible thirst”, and it smites everything like a hammer, while sometimes caressing like the hand of a lady. The breaking of its waves is violent, yet as it reaches the sands it reminds us of the rustle of a child's
I deem that the association between humankind and the sea is minimal. Nonetheless, I occupy the belief that people are breath taken and astounded by the view of survival in the ocean. To start
9. What are the different types of shorelines? Describe each type briefly. There is a rocky coast, lowland beach and barrier island, as well as coral reef. A rocky coast describes the most common type of costal area. This is where there are vertical wave cut cliffs and horizontal bench cut cliffs. The erosion undermines the cliffs and sends the resulting debris into the ocean forming rough outcroppings. Beaches are not only the sand
Throughout its history, the United States has had a fascination with guns. Americans have used guns in times of war, for protection, and for hunting. Americans also use guns when they are intent on killing people. When violence happens in school shootings, drive-by shootings, assassination of public officials, or in the workplace and shopping malls, Americans demand something be done. This demand fuels the debate between gun rights and gun control activists. It fuels the debate over the interpretation of the Second Amendment. It fuels the debate on allowing citizens to carry concealed weapons in gun-free zones. This makes us ask the question: Should guns be banned from college

When the water is so contaminated that you cannot drink it, what could you do to get a pure glass of H2O? Students taking Western Kentucky University (WKU) Dual-Credit “SPAN Chemistry” class at Metcalfe County High School (MCHS) completed a lab investigation of the distillation of contaminated water.
From around the 14th to 19th centuries, the Atlantic Ocean served as the great highway and allowed people and goods to move freely between Europe, America and even Africa. These interactions and exchanges transformed European, American and African societies and eventually led to the creation of a new culture, people, ideas and economies throughout the Atlantic area. The Atlantic world provides a comprehensive and logical history regarding one of the most important cross-cultural encounters of the human history (Glenn, 2002). The European main drive was to expand and create creative ways where people that are living along the Atlantic borders were able to adapt and exist side by side, they sustained continuous growth to grow their empires, economies as well as trade in the Atlantic world. Thus generally there were connections, interactions as well as massive exchanges that zigzagged the Atlantic Ocean in the beginning of the
The article that I read is entitled “Why the Earth’s past has scientists so worried about the Atlantic Ocean’s Circulation”. This article analyzes how global climate change may be contributing to the disruption of the North Atlantic Ocean circulation pattern. Additionally, this article is about how the circulation of the ocean closely correlates with major climate change, like glacial ice ages, which can possibly help us predict such events.
The purpose of this research paper is to evaluate and examine California Ocean Protection Act in many ways, such as how it is critical to the state's environmental and economic security, and how integral to the state's high quality of life and culture. This paper will use primary sources, such as E. Goldman, Sonke Mastrup, State of California Ocean Protection Council and Legal Info for California to analyze and evaluate the importance of Ocean environment in California coasts.
Research makes life better. It gives humanity technology and medical progress. Research has improved the quality and length of human life. The world needs a place that gives us animals, water, plants, and all other things essential to life. There is only one place that carries all of these things. Ocean research is the path to a greater future.
If you have ever lived in proximity to coastal areas you may have seen coastline erosion first hand. The beaches you frequent during the summer may seem to be getting smaller and smaller every year. Why does your favorite beach seem to be disappearing? Coastal erosion is to blame. The waves, wind, tides and currents all play a part in the mechanism that is coastal erosion. When water and wind batter the shoreline sediments are carried out to sea and deposited on the sea floor or at other points along the coastline. This is called an erosional coastline. This erosion may be very apparent or seem to have happened overnight when it happens due to a large storm or extremely high tide.
Birth control commonly referred to, as fertility control and contraception are devices that are used as a precautionary measure against pregnancy. Substantial evidence proves that there are varieties of birth control methods that have been in existence since the ancient times. In the 20th century, birth control methods have been improvised and advanced to facilitate safety and effectiveness. The purpose of this term paper is to provide three world arguments for birth control and two against the use of contraceptives.
Central Theme: The business world is composed of two types of spaces, these are called red oceans and blue oceans. Red oceans are the representation of all industries that have already been established and are in existence to this day, such as the automobile industry. Within the red ocean space boundaries have been set up and established throughout the industry, companies accept them and understand the competitive nature and rules. Companies within the red ocean industries, try to compete for the existing demand from the consumers by outperforming their competitors. Nevertheless, when the ocean becomes overcrowded the profitability of the industry diminishes due to many producers of the product and/or service, often leading to price wars;
The Scottsboro boys consisted of nine young men, from the ages of twelve to twenty, living in Scottsboro, Alabama during the 1930s. The racial injustice in South Alabama was at an all time high during this decade. While the public derived various opinions on the boy’s innocence or guilt, the Scottsboro Boys Trials presented a blatantly obvious verdict.
