I recently wrote an essay about the development of the star persona of Ice Cube‚ the rapper/actor who has made the unusual transition from hardcore gangsta rapper to leading man in such “family-friendly” films as Are We There Yet? The essay‚ entitled “With an Attitude: The Development of Ice Cube’s Star Persona‚” will soon be published in the online film journal 16:9; I’ll link to it as soon as it’s up. The thesis of the essay is that‚ for all the apparent and unexpected alterations to his “street”

Damari Grant 1. Introduction A. Have you wondered how to do the Rubiks ? B. How many times have you pick up a cube and said damn it wish I could complete the hold thing and not just on side or finish without sticker peeling. C. In time of boredom or just a mind opener its nice to baffle your continuesly with speed trials‚ always trying to beat the time before. D. Within this informative speech I hope to open your eyes to the least complicated puzzle that was developed

The Effects of Osmosis and Diffusion The experimentation of last week’s lab was in order to test the many effects of diffusion and osmosis amongst four experiments. One such experiment was testing the effects of molecular weight on diffusion in relation to the use of Agar. The methods performed included the use of two acids‚ HCl and acetic acid. Both acids were placed into an Agar-filled dish and‚ over increments of 15 minutes‚ data collection was taken based off the diffusion rate and the

The effect of size on the effectiveness of diffusion Aim: To use agar blocks infused with 0.1 Molar sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and phenolphthalein to investigate the relationship between shape and surface area: volume ratio on the effectiveness of diffusion. Hypothesis: That for a cube of agar‚ the time taken for complete colourisation due to diffusion of HCl is directly proportional to the cubes volume. Materials: |A block of agar (10cm x 5cm x 3cm) with 0.1M NaOH and |1x 250mL

A summary of Diffusion of Innovations Les Robinson Fully revised and rewritten Jan 2009 Diffusion of Innovations seeks to explain how innovations are taken up in a population. An innovation is an idea‚ behaviour‚ or object that is perceived as new by its audience. Diffusion of Innovations offers three valuable insights into the process of social change: - What qualities make an innovation spread successfully. - The importance of peer-peer conversations and peer networks.

Figure 1. Average Mass Specific Surface Area for Three Fish. Error bars represent standard deviation from the mean. The graph represents the mass specific gill surface area for a sample size of 6 gill arches for each of the 4 lab sections (n=24). For Mackerel‚ the mass specific gill surface area was 13.62 cm2/kg. For Whiting‚ this value was 9.34 cm2/kg. Lastly‚ for flounder this value was 2.93 cm2/kg. Results: The three different species of fish‚ Mackerel‚ Whiting‚ and Flounder‚ have distinct

3DIFUSSION IN AGAR CUBES – LAB REPORT Research Question: What is the effect of surface area on volume ratio on the rate of diffusion of pigment from the agar cube measured by percentage volume of diffusion over time? Background Research: Diffusion is the passive movement of molecules or particles along a concentration gradient‚ or from high to low concentration regions. Essential towards living organism’s functions‚ as it describes how the nerve cells are able to communicate with each other‚ through

Biology Lab #1: Chemical Diffusion Purpose To discover how the size of a cell affects the diffusion of chemicals throughout the cell. Hypothesis I predict that as the cell size increases the diffusion depth and the diffusion rate will decrease.
