Fish Tank, directed by Andrea Arnold, is a film that relies heavily on style. One such element of style that is particularly important to this film is its color. In the majority of the film warm and bright colors compose many scenes. Orange and yellow dominate in scenes set on the first floor of Mia’s home and at night. Light blues fill in the sky, doorways, and many other components of the set. Mia and Conor’s clothing, though not exuberant, always feature components made up of light colors…

The Juicy Salif by Philip Starck is one of the most iconic and obscure designs of modern culture. The shape of the Juicy Salif is what first attracts the human eye, immediately grabbing any onlookers’ attention. An elongated teardrop with three solid tentacles in aluminum casting, resembling a large metal spider, the Juicy Salif is no ordinary lemon squeezer. Futuristic, sleek and unique in design, it screams post-modernism. The disproportionate number of legs juxtaposes to its clean lines and…

Though the one thing that was weird was that he would never do is that he would never talk to anybody. I always thought it was because he had a shyness problem, like he didn’t think anyone would like him or want to talk and hang out. So I decided to try and talk to him when he was alone. It was a Friday afternoon and he was in the break room all alone and I knew this would be a good…
interesting to see the progression of weapons from the early beginnings to now. Most people believe that chemical warfare agents were first introduced during the World Wars. Interestingly enough, the concepts of these agents were developed as early as 600 B.C. They weren’t known as chemical warfare agents however; the techniques that were used mimic the action of these agents that are being used today. During the Peloponnesian War between Sparta and Athens, the Spartan army used a mixture of…

breads, biscuits, and muffins all use chemical leavening agents such as baking soda and an acid or baking powder.

Gluten free products use yeast and gums to help leaven the product and set its structure to trap CO2 bubbles. Gluten free products however typically do not rise as well as yeast or chemical leavening agent techniques because of the lack of elasticity formed by…
