There has never been a single day when I felt that Vista is not worth living. The facilities provided by them are actually praise-worthy. They have a 24/7 support, which definitely gives an advantage to residents to get help whenever they want. Moreover, the presence of ASU police department in one of the Vista’s building gives all its residents a great sense of security, which I am sure, is the first key element while searching for a place to live. To summarize, Vista Del Sol, happening yet peaceful, luxurious but somewhat expensive is definitely the best place to live on

“Every technology is both a burden and a blessing; not either-or, but this-and-that.” (Postman) The preceding quote by Neil Postman, author of the article “The Judgment of Thamus”, is a perfect example of the issues with new up-and-coming technologies. It is perfect because all technologies have obvious benefits which make them so appealing to the masses; who wouldn’t want to turn off a light left on in their house via cell phone, and no one complains about how convenient it is to communicate with someone overseas instantaneously via chat or email. What is not obvious, however, are the burdens associated with technology. Historically these burdens get lost among the benefits, and Postman brings this to light when writing, ”it is a certainty that radical technologies create new definitions of old terms, and that this process takes place without our being fully conscious of it.” (Postman) Creating new definitions isn’t a bad thing, but doing so without noticing generates new issues. The article “The Judgment of Thamus” begins with Plato’s story of Thamus, the king of a great city of Upper Egypt, who is known for his wisdom and makes a series of remarks regarding Theuth’s proposed inventions.

We are scattered now, the friends of the late Mr. Oliver Offord; but whenever we chance to meet I think we are conscious of a certain esoteric respect for each other. "Yes, you too have been in Arcadia," we seem not too grumpily to allow. When I pass the house in Mansfield Street I remember that Arcadia was there. I don't know who has it now, and don't want to know; it's enough to be so sure that if I should ring the bell there would be no such luck for me as that Brooksmith should open the door. Mr. Offord, the most agreeable, the most attaching of bachelors, was a retired diplomatist, living on his pension and on something of his own over and above; a good deal confined, by his infirmities, to his fireside and delighted to be found there any
Whether it be nicks little bungalow or a fancy mansion literally coated in marble owned by Gatsby. The book seems to capture both the practical and wealthy mans home in a simple and direct way which further shows the books strong use of symbolism. The three main characters are already given such a great amount of description that is only given by examining and understanding their homes alone. Knowing these things about them its shows that the book has much to reveal about the characters and their
According to Eliot, Old Leisure was simple, pure, and because of this there is an evident nostalgic feeling. The simplicity of old leisure life is described by addressing Old Leisure, making it a proper noun, a "gentleman" with "quiet perceptions." People of the time period being described did not give much thought to their surroundings and didn’t question the world around them because they lacked a thirst for knowledge. They lived a carefree lifestyle, and were immune to outside influences. Through her choice of words and phrases in the passage, Eliot demonstrates her nostalgic feelings towards old leisure.
