Write a one page description of a place using sensory details to describe it.
This place may be real or fictional. This may
be a place within a story, if you choose to take
that approach; or a place that you have
visited; it may also be a place you imagine
from your future, such as your future home or
office; this may be a place that is entirely
unreal, such as a utopian world, a dystopian world or
a futuristic world.

Be creative. Have some fun with this
assignment. The idea is to be so descriptive
that your reader can vividly picture each scene
clearly. Try to use sensory details to represent
all five senses--I will expect to see
at least four of the five senses represented.

*Using similes, metaphors and imagery is also helpful,
although not required.

Westridge, ohio — more than 600 transportation employees went on strike at midnight last night after the westridge city council rejected their demand for a 10% pay increase. the strike affects all bus and rail services throughout westridge and the neighboring communities of turlock, smithfield, and lowell grove. "we hoped we would not be forced to strike, but until our demands are met, we really have no choice," said wanda thompson, a representative of the transportation employees union. "we simply don't get paid what we deserve." members of the westridge city council see the situation differently. "our employees already earn 6% more than the state average for similar transportation jobs," said raoul cobian, president of the westridge city council. hopefully the two groups can come to an agreement soon and bring this unnecessary strike to an end. what is the common name for the underlined information in the article?
