After experimenting from 1915 to 1921 with additive color systems that filmed and projected the two color components simultaneously, rather than in rapid alternation (thereby eliminating Kinemacolor's color flicker and false color fringes around rapidly moving objects), Dr. Herbert Kalmus, Dr. Daniel Comstock, and mechanic W. Burton Wescott (who left the company in 1921) developed a subtractive color print process for Technicolor. As in their final additive system, the camera had only one lens but used a beam splitter that allowed red and green-filtered images to be photographed simultaneously on adjacent frames of a single strip of black-and-white 35 mm film, which ran through the camera at twice the normal rate. By skip-frame printing from the negative, two prints were made, on film stock with half the normal base thickness. They were chemically toned (i.e., the silver particles forming the black-and-white images were proportionally replaced by coloring matter) to colors roughly complementaryto the filter colors (red for the green-filtered images and vice versa), as subtractive color reproduction requires.[44] They were then cemented together, base to base, into a single strip of film. No special projection equipment was needed. The first publicly shown film using this process was Toll of the Sea (1922) starring Anna May Wong.…

Sodium hypochlorite, also known as chlorine bleach, soda bleach, or household bleach is a chemical with the formula NaClO. A common way sodium hypochlorite gets into the San Francisco bay is through daily household cleaning products such as laundry bleach. In a survey conducted by The Clorox Company, it was found that four out of five households use sodium hypochlorite bleach for their laundry. Since laundry detergent companies are not required to list every ingredient, customers are often not aware that they are purchasing harmful chemicals. When the run off from used laundry water gets into the bay, it becomes filled with toxic chemical pollutants such as sodium hypochlorite. The bay water is the primary water source for bay plants. If the water they are receiving contains Sodium Hypochlorite, this could affect the plant’s growth. Water treatment plants use industrial strength sodium hypochlorite. Although the water treatment facilities try to remove it from the water before it gets released back into nature, the data from Don Edwards San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge found that there is still an average of .6 to…
The Red Cedar River is home to many interesting and unique species of organisms, including crayfish. Crayfish play a significant role in the ecosystem by serving as a food source to different organisms. By studying the factors that influence the amount of crayfish in a freshwater environment, researchers can discover more about how ecosystems persist. The overpopulation of crayfish in freshwater systems can lead to various negative impacts, such as the feeding on plants that are major food sources for different aquatic organisms and the eating of fish eggs leading to the decrease in population sizes. If there is evidence proving a positive correlation between phosphorus concentration, a chemical element that can enter water through waste or…
I invite you to explore Black Canyon on the western slope of the White Mountains, about 20 minutes east of Bishop, California. This obscure canyon is a highly colorful, deep slash in the earth that keeps its many charms secret to all but a handful of Eastern Sierra visitors. It is an easily accessible location that does not involve a scary, butt-clenching drive on the brink of a thousand-foot drop into the abyss.…
The sheer anguish, grieve and the indescribable pain written all over the faces of Ugolino, his two sons and two grandsons in this amazingly sculpted artwork captures your imagination and gets you having a whole lot of questions to ask the first time you set your eyes on this masterpiece at the Metropolitan Museum. It’s location in the hall cannot be missed because it is literally positioned in the center. The “Ugolino and His Sons” master depicts Ugolino grieving in melancholy gnawing on his fingers with his sons and grandsons calmly pleading with him that he eats them instead. It shows the imprisonment and starvation of Ugolino who according to Dante’s poem Inferno. I chose to write about this masterpiece by Carpeaux because I was very interested and curious to research about the main idea behind it. The mere sight of the artwork tells a lot even though you may not know anything about it.…

Sunny never let anyone see that she was slowly falling apart.…
Coral reef bleaching, which is the whitening of diverse invertebrate taxa. The cause of the whitening is “from the loss of symbiotic zooxanthellae and/or a reduction in photosynthetic pigment concentrations in zooxanthellae residing within the gastrodermal tissues of host animals.” (P.W.Glynn) The reason why coral reef bleaching is such a concern is because the “consequences of bleaching large numbers of reef-building scleractinian corals and hydrocorals.”(P.W.Glynn)…
Colorguard is a high school sport that is a party of marching band that changed my life, because it allowed me to express myself, I gained a family, and it gave me a reason to push through life.

I performed my heart out, because I wanted…
Imagine being in a country roughly the same size as the United States (U.S.) and having over four times the population. Imagine having a limited water supply due to pollution. Imagine having a wall built across your entire country. Imagine a country that frowns upon religion and only allows you to have one child. All these things are true for the country of China. Over the following paragraphs, I will discuss the world’s largest military and some of the struggles that the Chinese people face on a daily basis.…

Victor Rios, the author of the book Punished focused on the struggles that Latino and African American young men ages 14-18 face when it comes to coping when all odds are against them. Rios (2011) establishes the phrase “Youth Control Complex” which he defines as “ a system in which schools, police, probation officers, families, community centers, the media, and other systems treat young people’s everyday behaviors as criminal activity” (XIV). The reality of these young men is that, all their societal systems are failing them. Teachers don’t care about teaching students, the criminal justice system is only waiting on them to walk the streets or seem “suspicious” for them to get arrested, friends “act bad” to gain respect amongst each other…
