The nerve of that fella, askin’ me to go to Gatsby’s funeral! It’s none of his beeswax tellin’ me to do anything. We need to live in the present and livin’ in the present ain’t reminiscing ‘bout the dead. It is a shame he got bumped off, but it’s done and dusted. You know he used to be a gutter rat from the middle of nowhere? Don’t look so surprised you used to be skint too. When I first met him at the El Fey he was tanked on hooch and on his last tenner. Raving about how he saw her that day on
Steffirah Eliscar Summer Reading Entry #1 5 August 2015 After reading the first couple of pages in Our Town by Thornton Wilder, I must say that I am not particularly impressed. The first act is filled with descriptions of the town. The stage manager provides the audience with unnecessary details such as anthropological data, and the population of the town. This play does not seem to have a plot or storyline. It just depicts what the characters are doing at the moment. From what I understand
who is selling parking in their front yard. Parking for big games like Miami is even more expensive. I live close to campus so I can walk to the stadium, however, on my short walk I saw different parking prices for as high as $40 and they still had a full lot. For the fact that you will most likely have to walk across busy streets to get to the stadium no matter where you find parking it is not very safe or convenient. Not only is parking expensive but concessions are three times what you would pay
The author of this article is incorrect because he believes that moving business around will be harmful, that a football team coming to Los Angeles is a waste of money and it will hurt football fans. The author early on starts out with a Hasty Generalization fallacy by assuming that all football celebrities and people associated with the organization will cause bad publicity. He also assumes that this is bad for Los Angeles, however clearly people enjoy following celebrities like the Kardashians

Socialization is a process of learning and social development. Socialization occurs when we interact with one another and become familiar with the world we live in. Socialization is important to the development of personality. Youth sports can play a crucial role in social interaction such as actively interacting with others, synthesizing information, and making decisions for ourselves. Although sports may apply stress, anxiety, and social pressure on the young athletes, youth sports build and develop
Playing a sport involves physically exerting yourself and competing against another team or individual for fun or for competition. In sports, when you are playing hard and pushing your limits it creates room for development. As your body develops so does all aspects of your health. This means that sports improve your mental, physical, and emotional/ social health. The first and most obvious way sports can improve your health is physically. When you are pushing your body to extremes you become more
Community service is an inspiring way for students to interact with their community, which develops lifelong social skills. It also builds many strong relationships with the public that leads to different connections with other people. Volunteering helps students find their passions and interests that may lead to a career choice they may have not considered. There are numerous self benefits to performing community service, however you could also assist others through volunteering. If I could do any
The Red Sox logo in essence is very simple, concise and informative. It is a baseball with two red socks encircled with the words “Boston Red Sox.” This logo provides the admirer with the most basic information, needed to comprehend the symbol’s meaning. The ball in the center of the logo signifies that the logo is of athletic nature, at least to those who are minimally familiar with a baseball and/or the sport. The words are relatively easily deciphered as the name and the city of a team -- this
public vs. private stadium funding I would still choose private funding. Even though, the public side made a fine argument I believe the benefits of private funding greatly outweigh the benefits of public funding. When stadiums are privately funded the owners of the franchise have greater control over the stadium. The owner is able to design the stadium the way he wants. He has the final say over how many club and premium seating options there will be, who will design the stadium, if it will be multipurpose

officially underway, I thought that it would be a great time to take a look at one facet of the economics of football, professional stadiums. It came to my attention that all but four of the professional football teams in the United States play in an open-air stadium which I thought was really interesting. To me this seems counterintuitive. Why would you want an open-air stadium? Is it purely because it is less expensive to build? You need less materials, less time, and less engineering so you might be
Nashville should have had a team before it grew soccer fans because every year there is a soccer match played in the Nissan stadium, the attendance is getting higher every match played. Of the records set, the future soccer team should share the Nissan Stadium with The NFL team Tennessee Titans because, in other states like Seattle, the MLS and NFL teams both share the same stadium called CenturyLink Field. In a month, Nashville set two attendance records in Tennessee but are yet to have a soccer team
In the last few years, the Golden State Warriors have been on fire. Even if you don’t follow sports, you know who they are. This created a bandwagon. Everyone roots for them even if they don’t understand the game. People just want to seem cool, and root for the superior team. In Ray Bradbury’s “All Summer in a Day,” the students join in on some naughty behaviors. Those students show how mob mentality can cause people to do terrible things. At the beginning of the story a boy says, “Hey everybody
Women have come a long way in the fight for equality – in the 1970s women fought for things like equal pay and equal opportunities in the workplace, yet this is still an issue today. This is even relevant to sport as sportsmen earn more than sportswomen for doing the same job. For years’ gender inequality has plagued professional sports, with people suggesting women’s sport is of a lower quality and women will never be as good as their male counterparts. On my cover I decided to blow up a picture

Fathers or dads can be different and have certain personalities. Some fathers are easy on life itself or they can be strict about time like Mr. Gilbreth in the book, “Cheaper by the Dozen.” There are also many other ways that dads can be.
