...at some time in history someone thought that people would enjoy this. That person who invented the Ferris wheel must have been a genius with this being the first of these terrifying machines. For the sake of the terrified people, the Ferris wheel ride would hope to have a very smoothly transition. The Ferris wheel ride outside of the Staten Island mall was going to be thrilling. The first experience on the carnival ride for the people that haven’t seen or rid the Ferris wheel before at a local fair was at the Staten Island mall. Staying still at the entrance, some of the kids has small hands which were held firmly by a larger hand belonging to a much more confidant mom or dad, but it will still be a first time experience for them and others. The flashing lights, the melody of circuited music and screaming had all the people gawking at anything and everything that they saw happened upon them. But what caught and kept the people attention was the Ferris wheel that seemed to torture their occupants every time ridden. People that were looking ahead at the horizon; the evil Ferris wheel ride was getting bigger and bigger every time you took a step. People waiting at the line felt swallowed from the fear deep inside of them. But unluckily the ride started out of nowhere and people are already screaming their lungs out and some were watching them, speechless. The Ferris wheel was very huge, smoky hot, noisy and a lot frightening from a close angle. Since that initial impression...

...The third Man Analysis The Ferris wheel scene Ideas: The Ferris wheel scene is one of the most important and suspenseful scenes in The Third Man. The director Carol Reed, chose to have the characters of Holly Martins and Harry Lime discuss there endeavours on a large Ferris wheel. The scene involves Martins justifying his Illegal actions while Holly interrogates, the scene is brought to heated discussion that leaves Martins unsure of his old friend Lime. The scene involves a curious setting, dialogue, casting and canted angles The setting of the scene is extremely coincidental for Holly as he has made his money by selling diluted penicillin to children and the fair grounds that should be flowing with children are actually deserted. The Ferris wheel is the most important part of this encapsulating setting as Martins and Lime confront each other alone in a tiny box, extremely high off the ground. This scene might escape the basic ‘Film Noir’ approach because its emphasis on lighting and darkness diminishes for this particular scene and the setting heightens that danger and mystery. The audience understands that Martins is uncomfortable when Lime delivers the threat that ‘I don’t think they’d look for a bullet after that fall.’ Martins’ holds the door frame of the cabin perhaps preparing for an attack from Lime. The Audience is relieved when Martins and Lime are able to step off the wheel when it has completed the full circle. This is the suspense that the setting created in...

...Walking into the carnival the first thing I notice is the ticket booths. The ticket booth has red, white and blue flashing lights. I can see all different type of people running around young and old. It looks as though there are several hundred people at the carnival. The smell of cotton candy and popcorn is very strong in the air. There is a giant Ferris wheel turning in the sky. I can see the people that are on the ride waving their hands, kicking their feet and screaming to the top of their lungs. The kids are having such a wonderful time as they slam into each other while driving the bumping cars. I see people standing in line at the food booths waiting to purchase some of the cuisine which include hot dogs, hamburger, and seafood just to name a few. As the music from the band echos across the carnival grounds, I see people dancing to the tunes that the band is playing. The crowd is excited. They are sweating as they are thudding their feet, and swaying their arms. I’m looking at all the smiles that are on the people’s faces which make me believe that everyone is having a wonderful time at the carnival. The first thing that I took into consideration when writing my description was the audience. I was explaining the carnival to my friend who had on a blindfold. I also considered the type of descriptive language that I would use to evoke the senses and set the tone. Setting the tone is an important element that is used to engage your audience. It is also important to try...

...Chicago is much different from North Dakota, I have never seen this many buildings before and riding on a train for the first time was very exciting. The buildings are so tall and gigantic its hard to picture it in my head but also difficult to describe. I am currently staying at an hotel located at 63rd and Wallace. I was able to attend the opening ceremony of the Chicago World's Fair, and boy it was crowded. I have never seen this many people gathered in one place. President Grover Cleveland was also at the fair and pressed the button signaling the opening of the Chicago World's Fair. The one thing that surprised me the most was this ride called the Ferris Wheel. I have never seen anything like it before, it is like a big wheel that spins in a circle and you can ride in it. For every person that road in the Ferris Wheel they received a free sample of Cracker Jack, which was weird version of popcorn. The second day of the fair I was interested in seeing a show called Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show which was located right next to the fair. A lot of people attended the show, and it was worth the money I spent. I also visited the Manufactures and Liberal Arts Building which had many sorts of art. The ones that really caught my attention were the exotic art which seemed to be very popular. I also got to visit a very unique invention called the clasp locker. It is suppose to change the way we close things like on clothes. Their were far to many extraordinary attractions that...

...Throughout my life I’ve been lucky enough to go on family vacations off the continent. Personally, I think travel is important in a young person's life and to a family. It builds confidence, gets you out of your comfort zone, and expands your cultural knowledge, and brings people together. The trip that influenced me the most was when my family went to London and Norway. Our first order of business was transportation. The airplane ride was a grueling 12 hours, but worth it. When we arrived in the bustling airport the view out the floor –to-ceiling windows was beautiful. You could see almost all of the places we were going to go. Exiting the building, we took a cab. It smelled of stale Febreze. The cab driver wore a black cap and had a low voice. He weaved in and out of traffic, and we watched in marvel because of how narrow the streets were and that we were on the opposite side of the street. Our hotel was more or less like an apartment complex. The place had two bedrooms, a living area, and the smallest kitchen I’ve ever seen. The bathroom was luxurious and it took a while to understand the functions of each button on the toilet. After a quick nap we ventured out. First stop we took was to the home of Britain’s King and Queen, Buckingham Palace. There was a large fountain to the side of tall black fence that provided protection to the castle behind. Guards wearing large black furry hats and bright red coats stood still on each side of the entrance. The residence itself was...

...charge/deduct from you : by the mile for disposal, descrepencies in description, hassle for hookup of your vehicle, flat or missing wheels and/or tires, or simply even just the time of pickup. The things to look for are: Does this place actually have a physical location?(You'll need this in the event you ever need to know where your car was last). Do these people own their own tow trucks? (If someone else is towing for them, they might pass on additional fees to you). How long has this place been in business? (This will help you see what kind of feedback these guys may have from other people like you). What do they plan to do with my car? (Many junk buyers will resell your car, which means someone can come knocking at your doors if the paperwork isn't filled out correclty, and leaves you still liable as the owner of the vehicle). How honest and serious do these people really seem? (Sometimes by stringing you along for sometime, you will loose credability with other buyer indirectly limiting your buyers). When to Junk a vehicle: 1. If the cost of repairs to your vehicle sum to atleast half the value of your repaired vehicle. 2. If your vehicle is beyond repair. 3.

...Car surfing just for idiots. By ******* For the British newspaper… Hello. I want to write something to your article in the paper yesterday. Here’s my opinion for car surfing: I don’t have any idea, for what’s going on in their head. I think it’s sick, and I don’t understand why young people want to do that. Car surfing is dangerous, and I think that YouTube has an effect on the young people. When they see these videos on the internet, they think they can do it too. They don’t think about the consequences, before some of their friends, who do it, die or getting hurt. I don’t think that we can blame YouTube for car surfing, and other stuff, but when young people see it, they want to do it. That’s it. If there were videos where people get serious hurt, they may will stop doing it. Young people must had it cut out of cardboard! Young people today do a lot off foolish things, but I think it’s a part of being young. Their behaviour is not all ways the best. They often drink to really much, and walk around in a fog. They do things like stealing food, cars and other things. They’ll fight, and they’ll beat up people they haven’t met before, and they just think it’s funny. There’s a lot of things young people do, there is really stupid. As I mention before, they steal. Stealing is a big thing, like car surfing is. They may do because they think they’re cool or something like that. They’re taking drugs, beside they are drinking, and driving, and May there’s sitting someone on the...

Step 3- You will need to assemble your tools. (which should be a jack, spare tire/donut, and given what time it may be you might want to have a flashlight ready.) Step 4- Place your jack underneath your car onto the hard portion (straying way from the plastic portion that some cars may have) and start to raise the jack until it is snug with the car and the ground.
