This was the most shocking fact that Sandy produced, usually when a storm makes it up to the Northern mid-Atlantic latitude, it is always way out to sea, but Sandy did otherwise. This factor was ultimately the one which caused all the damage and devastation for the habitants of N.Y if it wasn’t for the high pressure, the hurricane would have carried North rather than the quick turn forcing Sandy onto landfall. The geography of N.Y also made it more susceptible to storm surges. The long and narrow shape of the Long Island Sound helped to channel the waves in the 12 foot storm surge, making it even bigger. Additionally, areas such as Battery Park were built from landfill and therefore are low-lying areas and also flat.
In the story, Ross specifically tells their son, Kevin that he should try not to marry beneath himself because he will end up stuck in the same situation as him. This demonstrates Jean’s life being difficult because, she constantly has to deal with her husband not caring about her and looking to other women to satisfy himself. To continue, Jean lacks proper
The term hurricane derives from the Taino Indian word huracan, which means evil spirit. The Taino Indian term hurican came from the Maya word Hurakan, which is the Greek God of storms and bad weather (fcit.usf.edu). Hurricanes are intense tropical storms that originate over warm ocean waters, and usually begin as regular storms in the Caribbean or off the west coast of Africa (fcit.usf.edu). The two main ingredients of a hurricane are warm water and moist warm air. Because the state is located near the tropics and winds blow towards it from the African coasts on the Equator, Florida is especially a susceptible place to hurricanes.
This makes her more vulnerable to being hurt but only motivates her further, to bulldoze the barricade down as if it is her heart that is controlling her mind, rather than hear actual intellect controlling her mentality, this foreshadows and explains future tragic events which occur ever so wretchedly. “Fatal loins of these two foes” as “a pair of star crossed lovers” are blinded by love which makes them susceptible to any heart break and “The fearful passage of their death-mark’d love” in which conveys later scenes of critical elapses. Romeo attempts to break
"(PROLOGUE 16-28)" In those lines Antigone shows that her “love” for her brother will leave her “hating” her sister. Ismene is fearful of burying Polyneices, “But think of the danger! Think of what Creon will do!” (PROLOGUE 34). Her devotion to her family is not as strong as Antigones. By accepting the obligation to bury Polyneices, Antigone acts as if she has no choice.
“Friar Lawrence, less ambitious and more desperate than his fellow manipulators, does not hope that Juliet’s death will dissolve the families’ hatreds but only that it will give Romeo and chance to come and carry her off” (Snyder). At this point Romeo and Juliet’s relationship could not solve the problems between the families and the Friar was only uniting them. This is what made the Friar so repulsive. Even now after deaths and family issues, He treated the situation like a game. “Hold, daughter, I do spy a kind of hope, / Which craves as desperate an execution / As that is desperate which we would prevent (4.1.69-71).
Connie slowly realizes that he is actually much older, and grows afraid. As Connie refuses to go with him, he becomes more forceful and threatening, saying that he will harm her family, until Connie is compelled to leave with him and do as he demands of her. The story ends as Connie gives in to his intimidation and leaves the safety of her front porch; her eventual fate is left ambiguous. No one can be optimistic of her outcome but this ending gives the opportunity to let the reader envision what is not described in the story itself. The story “where are you going, where have you been” is started off with a set of these specific questions.
Ralegh presents the change of seasons by juxtaposing the good aspects of spring with their brevity in each stanza, whereas Keats discusses the beauty of autumn in the first stanza and describes it ending in the last stanza. Time and the idea of it passing quickly is emphasised in both poems; it is feared yet accepted as the way of life. From the first line of ‘The Nymph’s Reply’, there is immediately the suggestion of youth and age by the use of the conditional tense; ‘If all the world and love were young,’ (1). This is emphasised as ‘if’ is the word that this poem starts off with and there is a sense of wistfulness as the reader realises that both the world and love are not young. Ralegh has capitalised the word ‘time’ (5) drawing attention to it, as well as the ‘t’ sound being quite harsh compared with the relatively soft ‘f’ sounds following it.
When the storm erupts, so does the carnal desire that Calixta and Alcee have for one another. That fervor leads to an effusive, yet brief love affair between them. During their passionate encounter, Calixta's husband and son are waiting for the storm to cease at a local store. As the storm subsides and the rendezvous is fulfilled, Alcee absconds just in time for Calixta's husband and son to return. Chopin's involved descriptions and eloquent details of the affair are all rhetorically brought to life through the constant changing of the storm.
What the bride tells readers about is the fact that she cannot fully accept her newlywed husband. The reason for her doubts is because her recent husband, D’Elormie, unfortunately passed on. Though her new husband may be happy as mentioned several times within the poem, the bride does not feel all too completely happy herself. As featured in the poem, the readers find out what the bride’s true feelings and thoughts are of the wedding despite the greatest of times. Getting back to the fact that the story is told in a bride’s point of view, it just shows many readers that Edgar Allan Poe does not just tell stories in a male’s point of view.
