District 9 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1136608/?ref_=nv_sr_1 If I think about it I would not like to be eating cat food and living in District 9. Turning into a alien looks pretty cool but not worth it. This film was action packet and it was funny at the same time. I thought this movie was going to be a spoof of some sort but then it turned into a good story. When adding the alien and having dialogue with humans it adds more to the movie. This was cool to see because it made you understand that…
The Madison Symphony Orchestra is an exquisite ensemble with over 100 talented musicians. On April 2, 2016, John DeMain conducted a wonderful orchestra performance. It was held in Overture Hall at the Overture Center in Madison, WI. Garrick Ohlsson was the piano soloist that night in a Johannes Brahms piece after the intermission. The conductor came onto the stage before the show to give a brief explanation of the concert for the night and why he chose the musical selections he did, and I found…
District 9 began as a project for Peter Jackson and Neill Blomkamp as an adaptation of the Halo video game franchise. During pre-production in New Zealand, the movie was suddenly stopped, and they began working on a different alien movie instead. District 9 was based off a short film Blomkamp had done before, called Alive in Jo’Burg, which was about aliens being treated as poorly as illegal immigrants (Hart). The premise of District 9 is aliens that were bred for slave labor are living in…
Home evictions take a turn for the worst, especially for the prawns living in District 9. Set in the late 20th century, a massive spaceship holding aliens land in South Africa and find refuge in an area the government names “District 9” that also holds a population of Nigerians. However, years later, the alien refugees are being evicted from their shanty-like homes to what seems like a concentration camp by the main character, bureaucratic officer Wikus van de Merwe, who is leading this massive…
separate paper towel form the germinating peas 8. Refill cylinder with 50 ml of water. Then add enough glass beads so that the volume equals that of the germinating peas. 9. Remove beads and place on their own paper towel 10. Repeat steps one-nine, this is the second set of peas and beads to be used in the room temperature bath 11. In the bottom of each of the six vials place an absorbent cotton ball 12. Place two-three drops of 15% KOH on each cotton ball without getting KOH on the sides of…
Introduction: There is a direct relationship between temperature and pressure in gases. The relationship can be proven by measuring pressure, which is measured with a pressure sensor, and temperature, which is measured with a temperature probe. Two areas remain constant throughout this experiment, which are volume of the gas and the number of molecules the gas itself contains. In this experiment, using the constructed apparatus, an Erlenmeyer flask with an air sample will be placed in four…
Introduction: Based on preliminary research, the hypothesis of the present study was that at temperatures higher or lower than 40 degrees Celsius fermentation is inhibited. Alcoholic fermentation is used in food production such as brewing, winemaking, and baking (Campbell). Thus optimizing fermentation and understanding the effect of various environmental factors can have important economic and social benefits. The production of CO2 is being assessed to show the rate of fermentation at certain…

Intriguingly, as the conducted experiments disclose, isobutanol possesses an experimental boiling point approximately 23℃ higher than that of tert-butanol. Additionally, the boiling point of isobutanol appears to be 9℃ higher than that of sec-butanol. The latter had been a surprising, perhaps anomalous result indeed, since sec-butanol maintains a longer straight-chain skeleton of carbon atoms (four, to be precise) than either of the former two alcohols, whom possess…
temperature in °C, the mass of the water in grams, and the specific heat of water as 4.184 J/(g · °C). This will then put your answer in Joules. Be sure to use the correct number of significant figures in determining the heat absorbed by the water. 9. Now you can use equation 12.3. Since we are ignoring the calorimeter in the experiment, q(calorimeter) = 0. You calculated q(water) in the previous step, so you can determine q(metal). It will come out negative because the metal lost energy.…
