Star Lint Mr. Stevens College Comp II 1/22/15 August 2026: Smart House Scandal? Upon reading the short story “August 2026: There Will Come Soft Rains” by Ray Bradbury‚ readers are left with the image of a remarkable home left smoldering. As readers learn the myriad capabilities of the house‚ cooking‚ cleaning‚ schedualing and much more‚ a sense of macabre raises. While Ray Bradbury never lived to see the 1999 Disney film Smart House directed by LaVar Burton‚ both houses in reference share multiple

Protection of Values A tricky question we ask ourselves in life is what boundaries do we have for our life? How we keep boundaries? Shall we cross our boundary? What should our consequence be? In 1986‚ August Wilson published the play Fences which exhibits the life of an African American family during segregation. The protagonist of the play is the father of three children; all from separate women‚ Troy Maxson. Wilson uses the title of the play to create a metaphor in the play‚ which is symbolic

Calorimetry Lab Problem: Which foods have the most calories? Hypothesis: If we burn the food then the heating released will be measured as calories because the energy stored inside is released as heat and light. Parts of the experiment Control Group-water Experimental Group- different foods Independent variable- Type of food Dependent Variable- temperature of water Controlled variables- water temperature of unheated water Materials Stirring Rod‚ Beaker‚ ring clamp‚ evaporating disk‚

Cellular Respiration Purpose The purpose of this experiment was to determine the effect of body mass and temperature on the rate of respiration in the mouse. Hypothesis When the temperature is reduced‚ cellular respiration will increase. Measurement Weight the mouse and use soda lime for mouse to perspire. Oxygen was inhaled and carbon dioxide was exhaled. Carbon dioxide was absorbed by soda lime. Rate of respiration was measured in terms of ml of oxygen per min over grams. General

foods at 135°F or higher. Cold-holding equipment must be able to keep foods at 41°F or colder. Hot-Holding Guidelines When holding foods for service‚ observe the following: Stir the food at regular intervals to distribute heat evenly throughout the food. Keep food covered to retain heat and keep potential contaminants from falling into the food. Use a food thermometer to measure the food’s internal temperature every 2 hours. Discard any hot food after 4 hours if it has not been maintained at 135°F or

1. Ventilate the work area well‚ cover the work space with newspaper‚ and put on gloves and goggles. Be sure pets and kids are not running underfoot as begin this project. 2. Start by measuring the oils and placing them into the crock pot. Remember: For this recipe measuring all ingredients by weight‚ not by volume. 3. Turn the crock pot on high and melt all the oils. Better to use a smaller crock pot to cook the ingredients down and then move to a larger one once start adding the liquids. 4. Place

There is no doubt that sauna baths have many health benefits. This is the reason why many people choose to have one in their homes and be able to use it as often as they want. In case you don’t yet a sauna‚ you should consider getting one. You don’t know if you should choose a far infrared or a near infrared sauna? If so‚ then here is the difference between far infrared and near infrared saunas. Energy consumption When it comes to energy consumption‚ a near infrared sauna will definitely use less

Thermite Background: Thermite is a powder made from aluminum powder and a metal oxide [usually iron oxide (Fe2O3‚ known as rust)]. The thermite reaction is a redox reaction‚ where Aluminum reduces the oxide of another metal. For example‚ when using iron oxide (as I did) the equation would be Fe2O3(s) + 2 Al(s) -> Al2O3(s) + 2 Fe(l). Black or blue iron oxide (Fe3O4) could also be used. Other examples of possible oxides are manganese thermite (MnO2)‚ Cr2O3‚ and copper thermite (CuO). Aluminum can

25g of Perspex in the glass bulb. A thermocouple is placed between the glass bulb and heating coil to measure the temperature. Temperature is recorded everytime the height of Hg column change by 1 cm. When the temperature reach 120°C switch off the heat supply. Continue taking the readings as the temperature falls until 60°C. Results Height of Hg column while heating (cm) | Temperature (°C) | Height of Hg column while cooling (cm) | Temperature (°C) | 19.1 | 60.9 | 35.4 | 118.9 | 20.1 |
