Beach is one of my favorite places to relax, unwind and be at peace with myself. It has an abundance of sun, a refreshing ocean breeze and exceptionally soft sand. What a wonderful source of contentment!
Picture an extraordinarily warm winter's day, 50 degrees, brilliant rays shining down from a translucent sapphire sky. At the horizon's edge, the water is dotted with local fishermen, casting rods into the water in the hopes of catching their dinner. The soft winter's light shimmers on the surface, glinting waves lap at their vessels. Only occasionally, a stir of excitement as something wriggling is pulled from the deep.
A gentle breeze plays with my long blonde locks, bringing with the fresh, salty air of childhood memories, and a fleeting promise of early spring. Soon this sandy stretch will be filled with sunseekers, aiming for that perfect tan. Children will run and scream, building sandcastles and crying over dropped ice cream. Families will clamor for space. Somewhere,...
Music will drift over from a Latin family's boombox, all trumpets and timpani to make your hips sway. On days like this, wedged gloriously in the midst of winter's cold caress, it is impossible not to think of those summer days. Once, I was building sandcastles. One day, I'll be shushing my own children and fretting over their sunblock.
The lapping of the waves has given way to a more insistent crashing, the wind picked up just a little bit more. The fishermen are coming home. The income tide brings with it seaweed, teasing the shore with its tendrils, pulled back to the brine, and teasing once more. This dance is refined by time, perfected by eons, simple and beautiful. When the waves recede, they pull the sand out to sea. As I walk, the sand is pulled from beneath my feet. I sink, a sliver of an inch, into the shoreline's quicksand, teetering on the very edge of the land, the very edge of the limitless deep. Crabs, who have made their home riding…
Think of it like the difference between two different malls. We all have our favorites, maybe because of the parking or the overall layout. Another thing I like about luxurioussimplicity.com is that it has no unnecessary clutter like menswear. If I wanted to shop for a man friend, I might visit Gilt or another website. I prefer using luxurioussimplicity.com just for me. Besides women's clothes and accessories, there is not
Jet Blue Vincent One can call Jet Blue an airline with a vision, and in terms of pricing, the only airline that it can be compared with is Southwest Airlines. The founder of this airline had the confidence to take on the entrenched airlines and he had only one desire to prepare and that was to create a low-cost, high-service airline that passengers wanted to fly in. One of the aims of
As one would expect, those with children and teens tended to increase visits in the summer. While the older demographic groups dominated during the winter months. Seasonal fluctuations in Cornwall follow typical patterns found in non-tropical regions. The tourism trade in Cornwall depends on the influx of seasonal visitors during the warm summer months. According to statistics from the Cornwall Tourism Board (2007), the largest percentage of visitors were from
In 1996 Westinghouse/CBS bought Infinity radio broadcasting and outdoor advertising group for $4.7 billion, a deal that was largely the result of the Telecommunications Act of 1996. The Telecommunications Act heavily deregulated the media industry and allowed a company to significantly increase the amount radio stations it could own. In 1997, Viacom dealt its educational, professional and reference publishing businesses to Pearson for $4.6 billion, and retains Simon & Schuster.
Ethnography Le Petit Cafe in Brighton Beach is a Russian-owned pastry shop managed by my father Oleg Reyngach. With a clientele that consists almost entirely of Russian immigrants living in the local community, Le Petit Cafe offers a wonderful opportunity for an ethnographic study. What the patrons lack in terms of ethnic and linguistic diversity, they make up for in terms of socio-economic class and gender diversity. Blue collar and working
My personal favorite African cuisine is Ethiopian, because of the spongy teff bread injera. Injera is like an edible plate, and is piled with delectable morsels of tasty, well-spiced dishes that we eat with our hands. The cuisines of other African countries include flavorful stews replete with rich goat meat and root vegetables. South African foods have been influenced by European cuisines, with some regional variations. Root vegetables like
