The Sushi Law
"Do not do what you would undo if caught" ~ Leah Arendt ~ Why is it a
home buyer has so few options against a home seller when it is believed the
home was fraudulently and intentionally misrepresented? Is it because,
"Honesty is for the most part less profitable than dishonesty." ~ Plato ~
There should be a new law to protect the home buyers interests. As in the
auto industry the "Lemon Law" was created to protect auto buyers. So
should there be a law to protect vulnerable and innocent home buyers. The
"Lemon Law" in summary is defined, "The manufacturer, not the dealer, takes
care of the defects (State Lemon Law). In my proposed law, the seller, not
the buyer, would take care of intentional disclosures of defects. A solution
that would protect the home buyer from bogus acts and dishonesty a "raw
deal" when buying a home. A law and order that would make the seller
responsible for what is proven to be fraudulent and dishonest
misrepresentations. There should be a developed and implemented policy
created that would define the responsibility for; detection, investigation, and
reporting of dishonest and fraudulent activity and would outline specific
instructions regarding what should be done when fraud is suspected. I am
proposing the "Sushi Law".
At a home I once previewed I found a large entertainment center in the master
bedroom covering two thirds of a wall. It struck me as odd at the time. Why
would this massive piece of furniture be in a bedroom? As I turned to leave
the room something caught my eye. I saw what looked like textured paint on
the wall. Upon closer examination I realized it was paint that had tiny cracks
over various portions of the wall and in places ...

Compensation must be provided to the person whose property is being bought. Each country should work to set a standard for what is a fair market price, to prevent any people from inadequate compensation. The value of the property must be taken into account, and the effect this will have on their way of life. If a person is, for example, losing their home, the government must provide enough money to ensure that individual is able to relocate comfortably.

The house stood between Broadway and Fourth Avenue, and it looked like all the other New York brownstones. It was narrow-fronted, with a high stoop. A formal parlor opened into a narrow hall, with the dining room at the rear. The master bedroom and nursery were one floor up, with three more bedrooms one level higher. In contrast to the other houses, however, it had a deep porch, or piazza, at the rear of the third floor level. It had been a bedroom before the Roosevelts tore out the wall and made it an open-air playroom. The house had been a wedding present from Cornelius Van Schaack Roosevelt, or CVS, to his son and daughter-in-law.

And with good reason! The sheer luxury of the property is overwhelming. The mansion has 34 beautifully decorated rooms that boast 15th through 19th century art and furnishings. While blending together harmoniously, there is nothing subtle about the elaborately carved furniture, voluminous drapes, ornate carvings, and the richly colored tiles. The intent is to convey the excesses of wealth, which it does, albeit with grace and elegance.
Upon entering the room, I noticed a long white lattice fence in the middle of the room. It was a partition d...
Whether you are a first time home buyer or a seasoned home buyer, it is important to be aware of the requirements, policies and procedures that could potentially assist you with your home buying needs. As frequently evidenced, the housing rules keep changing. The government keeps proposing new funding programs and the stipulations that need to be met by buyers are ever changing. Staying abreast on these details will help ensure you have a smooth and valuable home buying experience.
All the shiny items to the back of the room caught my eye instantly because they appeared to look rich and prestigious. On the right of the big main entrance door in front, there was a silver tree, and on the opposite side of the room on the left side of the door, there was a gold tree. Money hangs on the tree, and I thought that was an interesting feature to have. As I looked around the room, I noticed the red carpet below me, and everyone was sitting on small rectangular pillows. The main speaker told me that pillows were located in the big container next to me, so I grabbed one and sat down. The...
When the moment arises and you place a perfectly bite sized piece of sushi on your tongue, no matter what the type of sushi is, they all have one thing in common: a mix of intricate beautiful flavors all working together to create a unique taste that is worthy of the gods. It starts a little bitter due to the rice vinegar that is used in preparing sushi rice, then salty from the seaweed wrapping, a strong fish flavor is usually prominent in the mix, and as you begin to chew you will notice the crunch of a few finely chopped vegetables, maybe cucumber, carrots, or water chestnuts depending on what type of sushi you're trying. The flavors can be balanced by the addition of a creamy ingredient. Cream cheese or avocado are popular choices, the creamy texture adds another facet to the complex taste that sushi is all about. The sweet, tangy, and strong flavor of pickled ginger can be placed on top to add even more flavor and to cleanse the palate between each piece. When all these flavors mix together to create an all new experience for the palate, that is when you can truly enjoy what sushi is about. With so many flavors and an unlimited combination of ingredients there are bound to be at least a few types of sushi anyone can appreciate. The best sushi uses fresh ingredients and carefully learned skills to assemble a piece of artwork that will melt in your mouth as it is being consumed.
For every action there is a consequence. In, “The Ways We Lie,” by Stephanie Ericsson she quotes, “We must consider the meaning of our actions”
First, it all starts with the dried seaweed, known as “Nori”, dried to perfection; crispy, flavorful, and fit to be consumed as a crucial part of sushi. Rice joins in, and is spread out on the seaweed. All the toppings get tossed into the mix, and brought into existence is a bundle of pride and enjoyment: sushi. As a passionate sushi lover, I follow the motto “Sushi is love, sushi is life. If it isn’t sushi, it’s never sushi.” Countless people around in my presence have eaten sushi; I stand by the judgment that it’s simply one of the best foods that exist. It’s not perfect, there are some negligible points that never arrive at the point of being singled out, noticed even, those issues right under your nose. People notice them for a split second and wonder about what could be bothering

Upon moving in to her home she is captivated, enthralled with the luscious garden, stunning greenhouse and well crafted colonial estate. This was a place she fantasized about, qualifying it as a home in which she seemed comfortable and free. These thoughts don’t last for long, however, when she is prescribed bed rest. She begins to think that the wallpaper, or someone in the wallpaper is watching her making her feel crazy. She finally abandons her positivity towards what now can be considered her husband’s home, and only labels negative features of the home. For example, the narrator rants about the wallpaper being, “the strangest yellow…wallpaper! It makes me think of… foul, bad yellow things” (Gilman). One can only imagine the mental torture that the narrator is experiencing, staring at the lifeless, repulsive yellow hue of ripping
Everyone has their own, personal place to have alone time and clear their heads. For me, that place is my bedroom in my apartment. My room is the one place where I feel most nostalgic and comfortable; its’ a comfort that can’t be replaced. My bedroom is my favorite room in my apartment because I always have my privacy there, and I feel like it shows my personal style, which I love.
