Description Of A Sign And Understanding

A few miles northeast of Bath ME, down the stretch of route 1, to the right, you come to a dusty road covered in rocks and leaves. The rocky dirt road comes to a stop were a small, rough path takes you through the peach colored brush to a hot sandy beach. The beach glimmers in the sunshine turning the grainy sand into a golden blanket. The beach winds around westward clifts for four miles. Towards the east, segmented by a river emptying its contents, the beach gradually plunges down into the chilly Atlantic ocean, where rushing water from the river clashes with the salt water. The waves roll and crash on in like the sound of African drums, on rhythm that never stops. On the horizon where the water meets with the sky an island sits with a lighthouse perched on the land looking out for dangers that lurk. The sky continues on to the animated clouds, carrying one's eyes up to the heavens.

When thinking about getting away to some serene paradise to help forget about work or school obligations most people instantly think of the beach. Whether it be the west or east coast the beach is a universal symbol of peace and serenity, plus a little bit of fun. But this bliss has a whole different meaning to me. This is where I grew up and how I found myself. The west coast of Florida is the first time I felt the sand in my toes and the salt water on my face. These memories inspired me to give back to the ocean and its inhabitants and follow my dreams of becoming a marine biologist.

The day was hot and sunny; I had been there for about 20 minutes, so I entered this lull of waiting for another lifeguard to come up in ten minutes. I suddenly noticed this young guy who had been struggling to move around in the shallow end start running towards the deep end. All of my attention was drawn to him. He jumped into the deep end so I quickly stood up to watch him and see if he was okay. Right when I stood up he began to struggle to stay afloat. “Are you okay? Do you need help?” is all I remembered yelling before I jumped in the water with clothes and all to save him. The distressed look on his face was terrifying to me so I can not imagine what the experience was like for him. When I had finally swam to him, he grabbed onto my rescue tube and an instant sign of relief came across his face. I swam the boy to the shallow end where he could touch the bottom. This one rescue showed me just how important my job was at that very moment. Each person that came to the pool was putting their life into the hands of each of the lifeguards that were responsible for watching over

Jose Salvador ALvarenga, a 37-year-old man who loves fishing, customarily made a trip out into the Pacific Ocean on November 18,2012 at 10:00 in the morning. He went out on that day like it was a normal day, planning to go out to the sea to catch some seafood, loading the boat with a little over a thousand pounds of equipment and a four-foot-high icebox to load his seafood in. Jose and his friend Ezequiel headed out into the sea. Everything was just fine as they got 75 miles away from land. Salvador let out his fishing pole to try to catch some fish; by then a storm was coming. Jose was being hard headed because as was packing he knew the storm was coming. “Alvarenga had been warned that a storm was coming, but there was little that would keep

From this tragic incident, we learned that we need to have people and systems monitoring rivers and other bodies of water, despite it being a holiday. We also learned that prevention and mitigation goes a long way in the incident of a flood or any other disaster. The money, the lives, and the time that is saved by a little preparation and planning is so minuscule compared to the recovery that would be spent. We also learned and it finally sunk in that we as a nation have to be prepared not only in our technology and waterways but also in our mindset.

Gulf Shores is the beautiful beach I have ever been to. When I go to Gulf Shores I smell the delicious seafood when I go to the restaurants. When I walked around the beach I smell the nasty seaweed around the sand. When I am at the beach I touch the small, white, pretty seashells and put them in a bucket to keep them. As I walk around the beach, my toes are touching the soft, grained sand between my toes. I can taste the dirty salt water when I am swimming in the ocean. When I go inside The Oyster House I can taste the amazing seafood into my mouth and wanted more food. When I am relaxing at the beach I can hear the waves crashing each other. I can hear people talking, screaming, and playing their loud music. In the evening time, I saw the

The first footsteps onto Prince Edward Island will often bring an exhilarating flow of fresh salt air to the lungs. Surrounded by the robust deep blue ocean and breathtaking white sand beaches, one is never more than several minutes from the closest shoreline. With rolling sand dunes that tower high above the water levels, and gusty wind forces that often leave one with a sandblasted sensation, the ocean is a companion that proves strong and competent. The sweet salty air will continue to linger and soon rest softly upon your lips. Often the shore will beckon a visitor to stay just a little longer, so that they might catch a glimpse of the sun gracefully setting along the horizon. The colors of teal, fuchsia, pink and yellow dance across the sky, as if nature is making her final debut. With a constant roll and slap, the ocean will beat against

Walking my way to closer and closer to the sand anyone could see how amazing the beaches in Dominican Republic were. The waves were crashing against one side of the shore while the other side was suspiciously calm. The sun was setting and people are laughing and showing their utmost enjoyment under the golden rays of the sunset. The feeling of grainy sand squishing slowly through my toes as I calmly stroll down the shoreline of the beach. In the distance, holes and small mountains of sand and small pieces of debris soon to be soaked and taken in by the sea, slowly sliding its way further through the sand and out to the ocean. Walking on a land of rusty gold, the sand was so soft and smooth, glistened as it reflected the sun’s rays. Cool, light,

“My sons just slipped from my hands,” Abdullah Kurdi, father of Syrian boys whose bodies washed up ashore on a Turkish beach, described to the local reporters. Kurdi was the only one in his family who made it alive, after the waves capsized the boat carrying them from a Turkish town to a Greek island. “People panicked when water filled the boat and it sank. We did everything we could to cling to the boat, but the waves were too high. It was dark and everyone was screaming in desperation,” the poor father said to the Dogan News Agency, which later on published a series of photos of his dead 3-year-old son, Aylan.

A ‘commodity sign’ invests symbolic meaning in products or services as a signifier with an image as signified. In recent times, consumer culture is driven by our desire for superfluous wants, causing the production and consumption of commodity signs to become more specialised according to the notion of capital. Capitalism is characterised by economies that are based on open markets and the ethos of individuality over community. French Sociologist Pierre Bourdieu (Distinction 1984) introduced the schema of subcultural capital, which ‘confers status on its owner in the eyes of the relevant beholder’ (Thorton, 2006: 100). Therefore people have the idea that they can buy subcultural capital, as it is seen as self-revealing, in order to impress people or become someone else (Frith, 1996: 5). Thus advertising was developed as a strategy in generating demand in a contemporary consumer culture. Mass marketing has split the unity of signifiers and signified into a language of appearances and images of which we realise as either visible, physical connections or indirect connotations to that which they represent.

A student has the ability to learn without a teacher. However, the Law of the Teaching Process creates the background for a teacher to guide a student on the path to more knowledge. A teacher should establish a safe environment that encourages thinking to help students learn “the unknown by the way of the known” (84). Acquiring their knowledge and increasing their mental power correlates to the aims of a teacher as they guide students. While a teacher is to be passionate in laying out knowledge, the really work of an education, acquiring knowledge, is the work of the student. A student learns by discovery and information stores as the student interprets the new information.

Its cold, windy, and sunny all at the same time. The beach stretches for miles seeming endless, until it reaches a tall cliff with waves crashing against it. The sun shines down on the moisture in the air creating a “sparkling” affect to add to the view. In some spots on the coast giant rock formations stick out of the water, creating a question on how they formed there. Sea creatures dot the sand everywhere. Walking the beach with sand between your toes is and not a worry in your mind is one of the best feelings. If you time it right early in the mornings and late in the night low tide takes place and you can find sand dollars and unique shells. Beautiful houses and hotels line the beach all with the same withered look they all strive to have, and balconies on every place to capture the view.
