Joshua Glidden English 102 professor Langham July 8, 2015 “Greasy lake” The title of Boyle’s short story “Greasy Lake” before I start lets quickly get introduced to the word “greasy” and how it is used during this short story. the word greasy is indicating that the persons manners or behaviors are effusively polite in a way that is felt to be insincere and repulsive. Also it is based off of Bruce Springsteen’s song “Spirit in the Night.” The lyrics “It’s about a mile down on the dark side of Route

beautiful day at the lake, my family and I were renting a cottage for a week in July like we usually do every year in the summer. We go up to the Canadian lakes in Michigan (Canadian lakes is a chain of lakes in the middle of Michigan about two hours away from Saline.) It was our second day here and our first real day to go out on the lake and swim, kayak, go on the paddleboat, etc. It was a nice house that had a cabin feel and was made out of almost all wood. The house was right on the lake, and had a nice

As seen in Figure 1. during the removal of carp in Lake Susan the amount of vegetation had increased by 40% (Bajer and Sorensen 2015). The importance of having vegetation in lakes especially around the littoral zone is vital for providing a habitat for other aquatic and semi aquatic species like amphibians and invertebrates (Radomski et al 2010). It was surprising to learn that removal of carp in a deep lake that can stratify, did not affect the concentration levels of phosphorous

Within “Winter, Frontal Lobe,” Brecken Hancock shares grief, as well as deteriorated mental health steaming from the authors mother. Sorrow and depression due to the mental distance of a loved one can be shown through the tone and mood used by the author. Hancock uses a guilty and desperate tone corresponding with dark and dreary diction. This aspect results from the sadness and hopelessness that Hancock projects to us about the devastating illness that is slowly taking her mother's life. Hancock

Lake Chapala Hello Ladies and gentlemen I want to let you know about a place where natural beauty, tranquility and beautiful weather all year round, are just some of the attractions.

Here, a variety of cultures and nationalities come together, resulting in an exotic blend that coexists in a typically Mexican environment. Lake Chapala and its surroundings

collect data that can be used to assess the current status of a lake in terms of stratification, productivity, succession, nutrient composition, transparency, and management. The field site was 85 acre, man-made lake within Miami Whitewater Forest in “Great Parks” of Hamilton County, Cincinnati, OH. Although the lake is man-made, it shares many characteristics with that of natural lakes. The data collected regarding the current status of the lake would then be compared against past, historical data to draw

Average Yellow Perch length (TL) ranged from 87 (age 1) to 223mm (age 5), whereas, Pumpkinseed length ranged from 47mm (age 1) to 194mm (age 6) which is similar to other findings in many lakes in North America (Scott & Crossman 1998; Pierce, Rasmussen, & Leggett 1990). Pumpkinseed growth was constant for the first 4-5 years, then began to slow, whereas, growth in Yellow perch was constant for the first 2-3 years and began to slow which is similar to other studies (Copp, et al. 2004; Lauer & Doll

thumb up into the wind to signal I’m ready to go. Suddenly there is a tug on the rope, and I’m being dragged through the water. Pressing the skis against the cold water, I can finally stand up above the waves. The boat pulls me around the bend of the lake, and the view of all the enormous cabins is thrilling. The seniors on the campground beach will clap and stand up from their Adirondack chairs to wave or whistle. As my legs begin to feel tired, I wave one last time and let go of the handlebar. I can
