They learned from rock progression that this creature’s life was just about 375,000 years ago. Since Shubin and his colleagues successfully discovered the creature they were given rights to name it. Shubin and his colleagues named it “Tiktaalik” which meant large freshwater

In his quote “Now, of course, lobster is posh, a delicacy, only a step of two down from caviar.” (Wallace, 55) Wallace in ensuring the audience that everyone in society is on the same page when it comes to eating lobster. But actually what this quote does is exhibit irony because of the oozing confidence in the statement , which provokes the audience to ask the question “Everyone eats lobster, don't they?” Later in his article Wallace added to the ironic tone when using the quote “But they are themselves good eating” (Wallace, 55) In that quote he was practically suggesting that lobsters taste so good so everyone should eat them without thinking twice.

Baja Fish Taco is a casual fast food Mexican seafood chain native to Southern California, specifically Orange County, brah. Serving up classic SoCal flavors inside of tacos, burritos, nachos, enchiladas, quesadillas, and salads they call "Unwrapped Burritos. " The fine establishment at their Norco, California location, on the day of patronage served myself along with four different groups of officers from four different police forces, office workforce, local and local Norconians. The vibe in the restaurant is a typical Southern California/Orange County taco hut serving that surfer dude that had just paddled in from catching bitchin ' curls with some Mexican flavor that even Donald Trump couldn’t keep out with his "Hecho en Mexico" wall. Though

Sea stars, or starfish, http://www.care2.com/causes/how-one-congressman-is-bringing-hope-to-dying-starfish.html are famous for their healing powers (they can regrow their own amputated limbs!) and their central disc. Today, they're at the center of "the largest wildlife die-off ever recorded" -- some populations have disappeared by 95 percent -- http://phys.org/news/2015-12-climate-american-starfish.html and scientists are racing to save them. It's a Starfish Catastrophe American scientists recently met in Seattle, reports King 5 News, http://www.king5.com/story/tech/science/environment/2016/01/19/sea-star-die-off-worst-ever-recorded/79016818/ to discuss this truly catastrophic event where millions of sea stars have died.

Essayist, David Foster Wallace, article “Consider the Lobster” discusses the deeper issue at hand found in the Maine Lobster Festival (2003) that attendees often overlook at or do not care; whether it is morally right to subject pain on animals because of gourmet delicacies. With this intention in mind, Wallace must wangle his point across readers of Gourmet magazine, his attended audience, in order for them to understand that the Maine Lobster Festival is not just about "the promise of sun, fun, and fine food" But a deeper issue at hand. Therefore, Wallace use of the rhetorical strategy Pathos throughout his essay creates an emotional impact on his readers; who have probably never consider the lobsters’ point of view. Consequently, allowing

Blackfish written by Gabriela Cowperthwaite. From the start attraction at Sealand of the Pacific in 1969, the aquarium grew attention for their orcas that would perform. Years later a two year old whale was captured and arrived in 81’. His name was Tilikum, coming in at two years old and 4,000 pounds. How do you go about taking orcas out of their setting, changing how they feel, and go about certain lies of how situations occurred?

In the past 15 years the lobster catch has tripled in volume. Walter Day suggest that fishers should be able to continue fishing the way they have always fished and be left alone. Shorts are lobsters that are too small to eat and eggers are lobster that are carrying fish and in turn will be marked with a letter V on their tail and should be thrown back in the water. Over sized lobsters must be thrown back because they are super studs that produce bumper crops for the young. Other was lobster men protect the crop is by following tight guild lines like a strong no cheating policy, summer Sunday's no fishing days, 800 trap policy, and must hold an apprenticeship.

Our groups best find was a couple of brittle stars, other teams found giant hermit crabs, sea slugs, and sea urchins. The most interesting animal was a large red starfish the staff members found previously, which I held. It was a bit larger than both of my hands put together, and was rough to the touch. After holding the starfish, I moved on to other sea creatures, each one more bizarre and attention grabbing than the last. At one point I actually kissed a sea cucumber (it’s said to bring good luck), which turned out to creepy and uncomfortable as I

I thought David Wallace did a good job writing "Consider the Lobster". It was an effective essay. Before jumping to the Lobsters, he started his essay by introducing g a well-marketed Maine Lobsters Festival (MLF) which is held every late July. I like how he describe what he saw at the Festival, give g his readers a sense of what to visualize. I find if interesting that in the 1800s, lobsters was a low-class food eaten by the poor and also was a punishment for prisoners.

CONSIDER THE LOBSTER (DAVID FOSTER WALLACE) The skilled use of visual imagery has been without a doubt is an essential aspect of writing. This is simply the cognitive image which consists of the sense of having images in mind. David Foster Wallace mastered it, in his article “Consider the Lobster” and portrays a typical example of descriptive writing. His piece seemingly created images in the minds of the readers.

The titles I enjoyed most in the past year that were required included "How to Read Literature Like a Professor" by Thomas Foster, which analyzed how to go beyond the surface of literature.  "Mythology: Timeless Tales of Gods and Heroes" by Edith Hamilton condensed the majority of mythology into one piece, aiding in the identification of allusions in other works that I have read. Another piece I surprisingly enjoyed to read was the piece "Everything's an Argument" by Andrea Lunsford, which explained the different fundamental pieces of arguments and how an effective argument is developed. I enjoyed these three readings the most during the past year because they went beyond the usual school reading assignment. Each of these provide a new tool

Tourism is a big part of the world’s economy today. People wanting to experience different cultures through eating their food and attempting to live a day in someone else's shoes. In David Foster Wallace’s essay “Consider the Lobster”, he provides a thought provoking and funny commentary on american food tourism at the Maine Lobster Festival. The main industries at the Maine Lobster Festival are lobster and tourism that are both at their peak during the summer season.

Sir Arthur Grimble´s ¨Hunting an Octopus in the Gilbert Islands¨ shares an intriguing story of how the Gilbertese hunt and kill an octopus. The story begins by explaining how the human body acts as the primary tool, as it is responsible for being both bait and weapon.
