Lava

recreate our favorite scenes from Star Wars. Of course, ninety-nine percent of the time that meant reenacting the fight between Anakin and Kenobi from Revenge of the Sith (but I mean come on, two Jedis in a duel to the death while balancing over a lava pit, nothing is cooler than that). I know, I know, it may not be very smart to reminisce on my love for the Star Wars prequels when applying for a film major, but those were the Star Wars’ I knew and I loved them. Anyways, when recreating the…

One type of sediment to note is diatomaceous earth, an uplifted siliceous ooze which contains the remains of the microscopic algae known as diatoms (Garrison and Ellis 152). With a density lower than most other sediments—measured at 0.2816 g/ml in our lab results—the powdery and apparently sticky sediment has rather tiny grains as expected from this sort of sediment. As diatomaceous earth derives from the diatom ooze of the deep ocean floor, it originates from the slow dissolution of diatom…

Professor Hardwigg chooses a path hoping that it is the one to take them to the center of the earth and water. They soon find out they are in the wrong tunnel and turn around and find water and the way to the center of the earth. However, they soon encounter a whole other world just a few miles below the crust of the earth filled with unusual and extinct plants and animals. There is also a lake they must cross in order to make it to another island containing a cave leading to the center.…

Ever heard of the Lord of the Rings? If the answer is yes, amazing; if the answer is “no”, well, the answer is hopefully not “no.” Although it is merely a work of fiction, the Lord of the Rings has characters that possess honorable traits. If I could nominate anyone--real or made-up--to be my role model, I would choose Frodo Baggins. Frodo is the main character in Lord of the Rings; he’s a creature that is similar to a human: a hobbit (a short humanlike creature with extremely large and hairy…

volcano rises to 3400 meters in the middle of the ocean and, as a result, the air mass being sampled is already well mixed due to the inputs and outputs of CO2 that is far below and away. Additionally, the site is located on a volcano, meaning the lava will burn all nearby plants and consequently, any possible CO2 emissions by respiration from those plants. 3) How do Nordhaus and Shellenberger use political psychology to explain why people have tended to be consistently, but weakly, committed…

Forty days after lent that day of the year arrived. Dying eggs, hours spent at church, and the sight of the beloved yet, creepy, Easter bunny. I found myself unwilling to get up for church that Easter Sunday knowing that soon after I would have to endure the horrible Easter egg hunt. As far back as I can recall I have been apart of the Easter egg hunt at my Grandmother Karll's house. Each of the twenty-five grandchildren fought for the chance to discover the golden egg. This unique egg contained…

commentary. The medium of the piece was marble. Augustus persuades others that he is politically powerful general and that he is divine. The sculpture shows that he is divine by having cupid, the sign of Venus, next to his feet. Venus is the goddess of lava and beauty and the mother of the romans. Not having any shoes is a way of representing gods. 4. The Old Battersea Bridge function was for delight. The image is a photograph. The photographer, James, showed delight through the use of color.…
