Float

viewing myself and the world around me. I know that my diaphragm moves up and down during the process of breathing, and I know that when I inhale, my lungs expand, and when I exhale, my lungs contract. I know that a positive buoyancy causes an object to float, and I know that the transfer of energy from the wind to the water on an ocean shore causes waves. These concepts are tangible, but connecting them together like pieces of a puzzle makes the idea abstract. This class opened my eyes to one…

There are two methods you can use to find out how porous your hair is: A. The Float Test: Take a couple of strands of hair from your comb or brush and drop them into a bowl of water. Let them sit for 2-4 minutes. If your hair floats, you have low porosity. If it sinks, you have high porosity. B. The Slip'n'Slide Test: Take a strand of hair and slide your fingers up the shaft (toward the scalp). If you feel little bumps along the way, this means that your cuticle is lifted and that you have high…

Welcome to the world where Newton’s laws do not exist. Our planet is called Serotonin. In Serotonin, you have the ability to float in mid-air just as if you were floating in space. We are able to float from place to place but not in a fast pace because in our world acceleration does not exist. Everything and everyone is in slow motion, which makes it hard for our citizens to get to places on time. We are able to pick up objects twice our size, it’s actually easier to do construction work on our…

Water is one of the best and one of the most important too tall of the biological systems. Water doesn’t not only exist in the 3 states of matter which are, solid liquid or gas. Water covers just about 75 percent of the earth and is throughout 78 percent of the human body. Without water there are any things that we would not be able to do. We would not be able to travel from place to place to go on cruises and we would no longer be a beach or water to drink. We would no longer be able to shower…

Fierce Fish The ocean is like a crowded city full of people. Everyone is walking around going to their destinations. An ecosystem is all living things (plants and animals) and nonliving things that live in a specific area. The man-of-war jellyfish lives in the busiest area of all, the neritic zone. The neritic zone is packed of ocean animals because it gets the perfect portion of sunlight, it’s a good temperature, and not lots of pressure. The neritic zone is located on the continental shelf.…

Rather it is the process by which people catch catfish. Catfishing requires specific preparation, supplies, locations, and circumstances. An increased popularity in the sport as well as the demand for catfish in the dining industry has placed a greater importance on the catfishing supplies industry. Catfish are a popular…

program while I volunteered at Sutter Davis Hospital. Once I obtained my CNA license, I enrolled in an LVN program while I worked at a nursing home. After I passed my LVN boards, I worked as a charge nurse at a nursing home and as a float nurse at the clinic. Being a float nurse, I worked closely with physicians in different departments. I felt very connected to the Family Nurse Practitioners because they come from a nursing background and understandd what it’s like to provide bedside care. I…

The cartoon “The American pipe dream“ by Mike Keefe, from 2012, deals with the American dream in our days and the impossibility to make it. In the center of the background, you can see a big villa with a garage and two cars, as well as a garden. It has white walls and green pitched roofs. The doorway is big and there are many windows and a chimney. The house looks like a perfect family home and is obviously the aim of the young family, you can find in the lower left corner of the first layer of…

This was my first gay pride parade experience and I must say it was a good experience. This is one of the reasons I appreciate courses like this because it allows students to step out of the comfort zone and be a part of something wonderful. I never thought I will attend gay pride parade especially on Sunday. I took my cousin and my nephew and it was their first time attending as well. I do not like missing Church and I left bad and guilty at the same time. If members of my Church knew I was…
