Balloon

Team Member Contributions On this project I worked with Savanna Addis and Jared Liddle. They were awesome partners on this project. In the first stages; Savanna came up with the starting idea for our car as well as the main points of our test plan. In the days that followed directly after we adjusted the plans and drawings, but the work was still based off of Savanna’s original ideas. Jared ended up building our first car. This car was a great start to help us figure out some problems in our…

Giacchino used a thick orchestration in the opening part with the balloons to play through the action. Giacchino used a vast amount of percussion and strings as the balloons were released to indicate a grand gesture of how many balloons this old man was able to construct within a short amount of time. Throughout the film the leitmotif of the waltz melody is played anytime Ellie is brought up or the…

Gold is widely used in modern day medicine to treat disorders. This is because gold is very resistant to bacteria. Bacteria are microscopic single-celled organisms. Bacteria are prokaryotes, meaning the entire organism consists of a single cell with a simple internal structure. The DNA of a prokaryote is neatly packed in the nucleus. The bacterial DNA floats freely in a twisted thread-like mass called the nucleoid. Gold is unaffected by almost everything. The only materials that can affect gold…

glucose will diffuse out of the bag, forming a green color (after the Benedict’s test). This experiment was set up using a dialysis tubing bag, balloon clips, beaker, iodine, solution of 1% soluble starch and 15% glucose. The dialysis tubing bag was filled up with starch and glucose, leaving a pocket of air for diffusion of materials, and sealed using balloon clips. At the beginning of the experiment, the inside of the test tube was white and the beaker had a yellow tint. This tube was then…

For the recreational exercises, I had suggested balloon volleyball since I saw that as a common exercise done in many nursing homes. The other exercise was to throw plastic Easter eggs into a cups from varying distances. The objective of these was to increase hand and eye coordination, socialization, and…

My heart felt as big as the Empire State Building and knowing that I was coming back tomorrow made it grow even larger. My stomach's butterflies were long gone and weren't expected to come back any time soon. A large smile from ear to ear covered my whole face. Nervousness from earlier now seems completely silly. The shelves of books towered over my head. I innocently grabbed the three books that looked most interesting and immediately dashed home. The mailbox creaked open and I took out our…

The novel Krik? Krak! is a group of small passages about different situations and a mixture of different lifestyles. The use of similar plots helps tie all nine of the passages together. The author, Edwidge Danticat, is a Haitian based writer who has built these stories around life in Haiti. A Wall of Rising Fire happened to be one of the more complex part of the novel. The title of this passage came from a line in a play that Little Guy was chose to play a role in. The line from the play…

They comprise 2 channels in their shaft: a central lumen through which a movable guide wire may be passed and an outer channel through which the dilation balloon is inflated. This type of catheter is advantageous if the catheter needs to be replaced with a catheter of a different size during the procedure. The guide wire can be left in place, the original catheter removed and the new catheter can then be threaded…

Another very common procedure is called Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI)/ (TAVA) which is when the doctor perform a Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement. Balloon Valvuloplasty is also used to repair the valve. Specialists are still developing new and better ways to perform these surgeries and procedures (“Aortic Valve…
