Terminals with their ticket selling counters, their shops and waiting facilities are places of a distinct phenomenologically accessible materiality this paper will get involved in this materiality, tracing the relations between people, things, and socio-spatial constellations to understand how the rule of a certain normality is established in terminals and when and how it is destabilized. Artifacts like the ticket selling machine or the materiality of a revolving door can break established routines thereby opening spaces for play or interaction with others. Sometimes, these exchanges do not unfold as planned, irritations arise and expectations are thwarted causing a reordering of conduct. Detailed analysis of digital video recordings allows insight into the brief exchanges between men, women and artifacts. Following is my abstract for the session Ordering / Disordering Space and Matter of the 2006 Meeting of the AAG, March 7-11, Chicago, Illinois.īased on ethnographic research in railway stations and passenger terminals for ferries, this paper wedges itself between people and the things they encounter. #learnscubachicago #diving #scuba #trilobite #eezycut #knives #adventureisoutthere #nodanglingbits. Hopefully, you’ll never need to get yourself out of an entanglement situation or need to save an animal from the hazards of fishing nets, but if you do, you’ll be better equipped. Stop in today to grab one for your dive trip.

We carry a selection of colored EEZYCUT Trilobite in two sheath options, a flexi pouch or nylon webbing. Please just carry a pair of shears and a Trilobite.' Save yourself some weight, money, and trips to urgent care. It’s a macho-only image, and they rarely used them unless they were gathering limpets, abalone, or other marine mollusks. Don’t look at old magazines, photos, movies, etc., where you see very handsome muscular divers in the 50s and 60s carrying KBar knives strapped to their legs and think you need to be just like them. Knives are tools only they are useful for prying and scraping or used after your dive to open your favorite beverage or cut up your in-between dive snack. That's why we keep our hands to ourselves, no flapping arms, dangling bits, or fingers to entice them to taste. You do not have reflexes fast enough to stab, let alone stop a shark, ray, eel, or any other animal from charging you. If you think you will be attacked by an animal, not pointing fingers, but someone probably antagonized the animal, a knife won’t do you any good. They are easier, faster, and sharper than most knives and aren’t expensive to replace. You are more likely to become entangled on rope, nets, or kelp, in which case you should use shears or an Eezycut Trilobyte.

You are more liable to stab or hurt yourself or your dive buddy than save or defend yourself. 'You shouldn't be carrying a knife on you while diving. Here's our shop manager's opinion on knives. Knives are a common 'Oooooo I need a knife and the biggest one I can get to protect myself against sharks, and other crazed fish 'cause I don't want to get eaten.' 🤦 First, please don't use your teeth on anything underwater that's weird. Knives, shears, blades, or teeth? What's the best tool to use, you may be asking. Let's talk about cutting tools for diving.
