What interest me the most about this ad is the chosen people to represent this campaign, J Cole, Tupac, and Missy Elliot, are all leaders of the hip-hop community. The visuals are amazing and…

She forgets her change and goes back for it. ‘What are you all staring at?’ she said. The café owner pushes the security button. Renna…

time is affected by sight and hearing we performed an experiment. This experiment involved catching a falling ruler with both senses available, only hearing available, only sight available with relaxing music being played and only sight available with soft rock music being played. These different scenarios allowed us to compare what senses our reaction time mostly relies on.

Sugary drinks are our number one source of added sugar in our diets which is causing all the obesity. Taxing sugary drinks would make them less accessible because of the price…

I am trying to get to know my project of how the type of soda affects the soda “fountain” that it would create when a Mento is added. I am also trying to know what I should be doing. To do this, I have found various websites that help me understand my project better. First off, I found a website called Mental Floss, with the heading of “Why do Diet Coke and Mentos React” to figure out why Diet Coke erupts with a Mento. The eruption is so powerful, you can create a soda rocket from it. The…
