sports bar themes and about seven competitive family style restaurants that are all capable of taking revenue away from Oggi’s. Of the other sports bars, Buffalo Wild Wings is the only one that I can think of that is marketed and known for sports, beer, and food just like Oggi’s. What makes Oggi’s different over Buffalo Wild Wings are the microbrewery and the overall quieter atmosphere. Oggi’s centers around the louder sports bar atmosphere, but I have also enjoyed a quieter meal with my wife…
Aural As previously mentioned, Corner states that the aural category of documentary aesthetics is strongly linked to images and because of this could be considered a secondary aesthetic. While I agree that documentary television was considered less aesthetically inclined during the early 2000s, I’d argue that recent television documentaries, like O.J.: Made in America, have reversed what Corner is suggesting. Edelman often allows the aural contents of the narrative to take the lead in parts of…
Eat at Empire Fire Mongolian Grill in Myrtle Beach, SC Mongolia is located way over in Northeast Asia, a country that’s surrounded by land and borders China. Still, the wonderful cuisine from there can be enjoyed here in Myrtle Beach at the Empire Fire Mongolian Grill. If you need a break from all of the seafood places for a while, visit their location at 4036 Hwy 17 South, North Myrtle Beach. Many times when we go out to eat we try to be health conscious. At Empire Fire, you’ll notice…
I did this every day for about a week and didn’t really talk to anyone. But one day everything was a little off, it started to rain and all of the animals were very nervous. “What's happening?” I asked Boxer “He’s arriving,” he said. “Who’s he?” I asked again. “Mr. Jones!” said Boxer. As soon as the words slowly spilled out of his mouth lightning crashed…
In the second stanza the narrator witnesses Tom’s loss of innocence: “There’s little Tom Dacre, who cried when his head / That curled like a lamb’s back, was shaved:” (Stanza 2). The image of Tom crying because he was losing his hair is so vivid. We often take little things like that for granted. Losing his hair wasn’t about vanity; it was a choice being taken away from Tom. The word ‘independence’ is very interesting because…
name after the performance of some noteworthy deed, or by fasting and dreaming, when he assumes the name of whatever appeared or was suggested by the dream.” (Northwestern University Library) Death: “Disposal of the body after death was similar to that of most of the Siouan tribes. The body was painted red and dressed in the finest clothing possessed by the departed. The face was decorated to indicate the clan. Food and implements were placed at the head and the remains were wrapped in…
Fireflies, lightning bugs, photurinae, all one in the same, all of these names are for one insect; the lovely, summer night firefly that children chase around and put in jars for a little lamp. Owl City’s song “Fireflies” describes the idea of a child’s lifelong dream of catching a jar full of fireflies and having a living nightlight, but as we all know the fireflies that are caught end up dying sooner rather than later. This song tells of how so many people just hurry through life and don't…
Working in the media, industry can challenge a person and affect the way they portray themselves and their family. The cultural pressure to appear in control with perfection and complete bliss makes couples bitter, secretive and complicated. However, with Fluffy and Rocco, I could ask questions and get the gritty details of their marriage. They were willing to tell me facts and answer my questions openly (almost too open at times). This helped me understand the difference between Fluffy and…
In the greater metropolis encompassing five counties referred to as Los Diablos darkness prevails. Daemons inhabited the remaining structures within the eighty-seven towns dismantled by massive super-earthquakes that rocked the entire region. The quakes were responsible for the destructions of the tens of thousands of buildings up to five hundred square miles including the downtown area. All counties affected heavily losses and causalities by the unexpected huge tidal waves and monstrous…
Although the video didn’t feel rushed it could have used a little more information in certain parts of the video, and in some parts a little bit less info. Regardless, he knew his information and there was no need for him to refer to any cue cards and he spoke fluently without stuttering or repeating himself. Rick Steves has a very friendly and…
