...Introduction Aim The aim of this report is to decide whether an Eco Tourist Resort or a Water Park should be built on the banks of lake Doonella which is currently part of the Doonella Nature Reserve. The Sunshine Coast Tourism Association believe that it would be a better location for the Water Park, whereas some local developers view the area as a great opportunity to give the tourists a nature enriching holiday experience. But there are many things to consider, we must consider the flora and fauna of the environment that live in lake Doonella, the economical impact and the social factors on the shire. Background information A catchment is the land from which rainwater drains to a river where some water remains underground and slowly feeds the river between rainfall events. There is an abundance of catchments in the Noosa shire consisting of Teewah Creek , Upper Noosa River, Kin Kin Creek, Lake Cootharaba, Lake Cooroibah, Lower Noosa River and Lake Wayba. The Noosa River catchment and estuaries are both healthy with an A- rating, this is good because it gives the wildlife a healthier ecosystem. Lake Doonella is located in Tewantin and is somewhat isolated from the river by the Doonella Bridge. Doonella Lake is an important part of the Noosa ecosystem because it’s...

...I’ve lived in Houston for about a year now, I moved here from a small city made up of mostly Hispanics, to now living in one of the largest cities in the United States. My area specifically, is made up of 71% African Americans, and the rest being an equal mixture of white and Hispanics. We all coexist as a community, In sociology, we define that as people who live in close proximity that interact and support each other. As I look at ways that we can improve our community, certain things quickly come to mind. For example, the neighborhood water park has safety hazards that have caused children and grown-ups to get injured. In addition, recent natural disasters, such as Harvey, have caused pollution to the nearby lake. Both of these have helped...

...Jason and Marie Salerno, brother and sister, have been running their family business, a water park called Wild Water, since they both graduated from the college. The Salernos operate the park, which is located near the New Jersey shore, with help from their parents. Marie’s husband and Jason’s wife are also involved in the business. Wild Water has now been in business for more than 40 years—it is a landmark to both locals and summer tourists. The water park features such attraction as a wave pool, several water slides, a flume ride, a kiddie pool, and a tube ride. A picnic park, shaded petting zoo, aquarium, snack bar, and restaurant called the Seafood Shack round out the park’s offerings. The park opens on Memorial Day and cuts back to weekends only after Labor Day, typically closing in the fall. With just a few months to accumulate revenue, the family and employees of the park work extremely hard. Marie oversees the financial aspects of the business, while Jason manages the staff. The staff—ride operators, ticket takers, lifeguards, and the like—are very loyal. Some have parents who once worked at the water park, and many have siblings who also work there. By its very nature, the organization culture of Wild Water is hierarchical—but most who work there, including Jason and Marie, would refer their employees as part of the family. Jason holds weekly staff meetings, where employees are encouraged to voice their idea about any aspect of the park’s operations. Photos of workers...

Comments on narration: • Normally chronological (though sometimes uses flashbacks) • A sequential presentation of the events that add up to a story. • A narrative differs from a mere listing of events. Narration usually contains characters, a setting, a conflict, and a resolution. Time and place and person are normally established. In this paragraph, the "story" components are: a protagonist (Hanson), a setting (the park), a goal (to camp), an obstacle (nature), a climax (his panic), and a resolution (leaving). • Specific details always help a story, but so does interpretive language. You don't just lay the words on the page; you point them in the direction of a story. • This...

...Smiles and cheers are shared as families get together to watch their relatives score their first goal in a sport they love. Urban recreation areas are places where people come together and support their favorite local sports teams. However, nobody sees the negative effects on the environment that these recreational centers caused when they were created. For insistence, Helen McCall Recreational Center along Highway 98 in Walton County is expanding their “twenty-nine-acre recreation area” by clear cutting and burning the woods to expand the park (Wheeler n. pag.). While many people enjoy the idea of more public recreational spaces, there are some who disagree with how the expansion is being conducted. According to Tomas Munita’s article on...

...Using your own detailed examples explore representations of ethnicity in the media today. There are many representations of ethnicity is the media however they all seem to be very limited if not overlooked completely. Many of these tend to be as token gestures or stereotypical to fit with the dominant ideology. To explore this further I will be primarily looking at the representation of Gypsies in My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding, a TV programme produced by Jenny Popplewell shown on Channel 4. I will also comment on other representations of gypsies in the media such as those in Snatch and The Traveller Times Online. In the media, gypsies are portrayed in a negative light. Every single media product stereotypes them as dirty, tramps and thieves. We see this everywhere, in magazines, films, TV programmes and Documentaries. A good example is the article titled ‘Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves?’ it varies in different words that are linked with negativity throughout the whole article. While including examples from Snatch, the article says ‘Messages of gypsies in Snatch are deeply negative, putting us, the audience in a superior position’. This clearly shows the negativity of them in the media. Only 300,000 gypsies and travellers live in Britain. Only small part of them are in TV programmes and other forms of media therefore the representation is disproportionate to their population. Not all Irish Travellers are dirty or thieves. My Big Fat Gypsy Weddings is clearly produced purely for entertainment...

...Community Project Paper Trista Baldwin MGT/522 October 27, 2014 Cara Koch Community Project Paper The Heart in the Park Labyrinth located in Tonkawa began in 2006 with a group of community members who expressed interest in local artist Audrey Schmitz idea to recognize and celebrate Oklahoma's Centennial. The city's motto "Wheatheart of Oklahoma" and the Native American translation of the towns name "Tonkawa" meaning "they all stay together" was the inspiration behind the design. The park contains pavers and art panels depicting local culture and history. In less than one years’ time fund in excess of $150,000.00 were raised through donations, grants, and in-kind services. The park is utilized for a variety of community activities including educational presentations to high school and college students, fundraising events, an annual Harvest Walk, Valentine's Day Walk and weddings ("Heart in the Park Labyrinth", n.d). Community projects such as this can be successful when elected officials come together with residents. Collaboration amongst various team members has proven to be an effective tool when utilized to accomplish common goals that may not have been achievable on their own (Swindell & Hilvert, 2014). When different partners come together it is important to ensure that all team players are on the same page. There are seven characteristics that can influence the success in achieving goals in a community project; assessing funds available, contract specifications...

...Three innovative ideas that would improve the area where I live are better jobs, more children after school activities, and parks. In my community there are not as many jobs that are available for many people. This has because many people to struggle with the cost of living. This is due to the low income that is being paid to employees. For example, there are several restaurants that are available in my area, which is the only jobs that will hire people with no experience. Their pay is not much but with the low income that is being paid and the high cost of living, it is not the best job to make ends meet. There are not many after school activities for children where I live today. If there was more after school activities, it will give provide more advantages of children learning, staying out of trouble, and experiencing more out of life. Parks are great to have in the community because this gives families more places that are fun for their children and provides places for many sports activities. Where I live we have 2 parks that are available and one of them is not fill with playgrounds for children and fields where many boys have the opportunity of playing baseball, basketball, and other sports that they love. The other park that we have is located in a neighborhood that is not a place for children. I would never allow or advise my children to attend this...

...In the case of F.J. Busse vs. Department of General Services, Busse was contracted by the General State Authority to build a fountain in Point State Park. When the area was nearly excavated, Hurricane Agnes deposited 6 inches of dirt onto the site. Busse submitted a change order for $85,000, but the General State Authority only granted Busse an extension of time. The GSA said that any funds recovered from federal reimbursement would be paid to Busse, but no funds were ever recovered. The court ruled that Busse was responsible for the cost of the dirt removal from the job site under the terms of the contract. The court said that even though neither party was responsible for the loss, the party who agreed to take the loss must be responsible for it. In this case, the court decided that Busse agreed to take this loss. In the contract, the provisions are quite vague with Busse agreeing to take the loss from “any other hazard”. The court used this to say that damage from a hurricane could be included under this. The court also ruled that the damage to the job site did not make fulfilling the terms of the contract impossible, but just more expensive. In this case, it does not seem that the court deemed the cost of the cleanup to be impractical, or much more costly than anticipated. I do not agree with the findings of this court. While the contract did leave Busse liable for a multitude of possible damages, I do not believe than a severe act of God like a hurricane should be included...
