Classic Times-Compare/Contrast essay summary

The winter classic is a very unique and special game that happens once a year in the NHL. It stands out so much more than just a regular season game. The 2014 Winter Classic was the one that stands out most to me, because I went to it. I'll be comparing the differences between the 2014 Winter Classic and a regular season game like the difference in the attendance, the revenue, and everything else that differentiates the two.

Ted Talk: “How I Brought a River, and my City, Back to Life”. By: Aziza Chaouni. The Fez River is in the Medina of Fez, Morocco. Once called the “soul” of the city. The river got polluted with sewage and pollution and was covered bit by bit until nothing remained, in the 1950’s. Aziza is telling her story on how she transforms her river back to its former glory, and her city in the process. She uncovered the river with a group of engineers. She cleaned the water and made it accessible to the people.

 

I liked this talk; you can tell she is very determined to fix the river and keep the city alive. She laid out many steps that she has already and will make in the near future. I think it’s a big process and will succeed and the city of Fez will live. I like how she had pictures of her steps and how they will all look once finished.
