...Every single work of art was unique in it’s own way, but one of the piece managed to truly catch my eye. The title of the work was inflorescence by Bhakti Baxter, which was created back in 2006. The name actually fits this work of art very well, which I found to be rather humorous. Sometimes a name of an art piece can have no relation to what it actually displays, as opposed to those which just state what they want you to see. Inflorescence, by definition, means the complete flower head of a plant, or the arrangement of the flowers on a plant. That is exactly what this looked like, just the top and main part of the flower. Start by picturing this beautiful pink lotus flower, but then start to picture it has a hard and solid object, each petal having it’s own defining shape, and having every line lead back towards the center. Then imagine it being the purest of them all and literally...

...Perspective Writing Like Blooming Flowers It was going to be yet another dismal day for the woman. She was trapped in a job she despised with the same monotonous routine every day but the cruel reality was that she desperately needed to stick with it to pay the bills. With a weary sigh, she turned the handle of the classroom door, noticing on it the sticky residue of chewing gum left there from an asinine prank played on her the previous week by some moronic kid... or had it been last month? She didn’t know. It had escaped her notice that the days here flew so quickly by like a handful of flower petals flung into blustery winds. She stepped into the classroom, slamming the door behind her with intentional force. All heads turned towards her in a perfect synchronized motion, followed by a heavy blanket of fearful silence covering the entire classroom. Despite the surely bleak day which lay ahead, a ghost of a smile flitted across her face as she silently gloated about the great effort she had expended in etching the rule that there must be silence in the classroom at all times into the children’s minds. The blaring sound of the bell resounding through the halls indicated it was time for her to dismiss the class. Everyone filed out of the class except Lisa who had come to the front.The child’s expression was similar to that of a petrified toddler’s who had lost their mother in the store but this didn’t make her sympathize with the child at all.‘I am giving you three detentions...

...Chem 001: Problem Solving Investigation in Analytical Chemistry PROBLEM Are red flowers really red? Two students were having an argument about pigments in red flower. One said that red petals can only contain the red color, whereas the other students thought that the red color could actually be a mixture of color. Plan an experiment to investigate if the pigment in red flowers consists of one or more colors. In your investigation think about how you can extract the pigment and check whether it consists of one or more color. PLAN FOR INVESTIGATION A. Purpose of the Investigation The purpose of this investigation is to know whether the pigment in red flowers consist one or more colors. The goal of this experiment is to analyze the pigments found in flowers using paper chromatography. B. Materials/ Apparatus The materials used in this experiment include filter paper, scissors, pencil, ruler, clean jar or drinking glass, large- mouth glass jar, water (at least 60 mL, distilled water is preferable, but tap water is also suitable), 70% isopropyl alcohol, measuring cup, piece of scratch paper, coin, timer or clock, and of course red flower petals. You will need at least 2 flower petals from at least 3 different plants. Tip: Larger petals work better than smaller petals. C. Steps/ Procedure Cut the chromatography filter paper into strips that are about 2 cm wide and as long as the large-mouth glass is tall (the strips should all be the same size). You will...

...Keon Brown Mr. Potter Gallery Visit Paper 30 April 2014 Rangoli by Urja Vaidya The 2D design by Vaidya is a bright multi colored symmetrical design. It has many triangular and square shapes in this piece. The title “Rangoli” comes from India, also known as Muggu or kolam, which is a traditional folk-floor art typically created on the floor in living rooms or courtyards. Rangoli can be any size and can use a wide variety of materials. You can approach Rangoli as an advanced art project for an experienced artist, or modify it for a fun activity with kids. This tradition is made using materials such as colored rice, dry flour, colored sand, beads, or flower petals. Urja Vaidya only used acrylic paint in her design. Rangoli designs can be simple geometric shapes, deity impressions, or flower petal shapes; depends on the given celebration. Traditionally, Rangoli is made on a square grid in North India and on a hexagonal grid in South India while Onam Rangolis are typically circular. Due to rapid and widespread migration and mixing of people these styles are now freely adopted and mixed. The purpose of rangoli is decoration, and it is thought to bring good luck. Design depictions may also vary as they reflect traditions, folklore and practices that are unique to each area. It is traditionally done by women.

...Self-Management Education: History, Definition, Outcomes, and Mechanisms Kate R. Lorig, Dr.P.H. and Halsted R. Holman, M.D. Stanford University School of Medicine ABSTRACT THE MEANING OF SELF-MANAGEMENT Self-management has become a popular term for behavioral interventions as well as for healthful behaviors. This is especially true for the management of chronic conditions. This article offers a short history of self-management. It presents three self-management tasks—medical management, role management, and emotional management—and six self-management skills—problem solving, decision making, resource utilization, the formation of a patient–provider partnership, action planning, and self-tailoring. In addition, the article presents evidence of the effectiveness of self-management interventions and posits a possible mechanism, self-efficacy, through which these interventions work. In conclusion the article discusses problems and solutions for integrating self-management education into the mainstream health care systems. Whether one is engaging in a health promoting activity such as exercise or is living with a chronic disease such as asthma, he or she is responsible for day-to-day management. Gregory Bateson (3) once said, “one cannot not communicate.” The same is true for health behavior and disease management. One cannot not manage. If one decides not to engage in a healthful behavior or not to be active in managing a disease, this decision reflects a management style. Unless...

...Rose Petal pH Indicator Strip II – Proponents Jhed Angelo Nemuel Parcon Princess Hope Delos Reyes Jalel Pasbal Maureen Suganob Nel Joshua Turaray Laureen Suganob Reed Elcen Lumbay II – Objective This project aims to produce a pH indicator strip made from rose petals. The researchers want know if the rose flower is an effective acid-base indicator and if it would be precise when used to identify the pH levels of household items. III – Introduction Normally, pH indicator strips such as litmus paper are the ones used in indicating the pH level of a substance. pH is the measure of the acidity or alkalinity of a solution, numerically equal to 7 for neutral solutions, increasing with increasing alkalinity and decreasing with increasing acidity. Acidic and basic are two extremes that defines chemicals. The pH scale measures how acidic or basic a substance is. It ranges from 0 to 14. A pH of 7 is neutral. A pH less than 7 is acidic, and a pH greater than 7 is basic. Each whole pH value below 7 is ten times more acidic than the next higher value. For example, a pH of 4 is ten times more acidic than a pH of 5 and 100 times (10 times 10) more acidic than a pH of 6. The same holds true for pH values above 7, each of which is ten times more alkaline—another way to say basic—than the next lower whole value. For example, a pH of 10 is ten times more alkaline than a pH of 9. (http://www.epa.gov) Roses are woody perennial shrubs or vines of the genus Rosa, within the family...

...MATHEMATICS BEHIND FLOWER PETALS Have you ever observed a flower from the mathematical point of view? Have you ever given a thought on why flowers are aesthetically appealing? In nearly all the flowers, the number of petals is one of the numbers that occur in the strange sequence 1, 2,3,5,8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144. They form the beginning of the so-called Fibonacci series, in which each number is the sum of the two that precedes. In order to verify this, we collected 30 different samples of flowers from Somaiya Vidyavihar Campus and counted the number of petals present in each flower. These data were then added to excel from which we observed that 60% of the 30 samples of flowers considered had petal counts in the above Fibonacci sequence. No of flowers | Fibonacci | Non Fibonacci | 30 | 18 | 12 | Proportion | .6 | .4 | Z value | 1.09 | | P value | .1366>.05 | Null acceptance | As we can see the above table, the p value is greater than .05, (level of significance) the alternate hypothesis that the number of petals in flowers follows Fibonacci series is not conclusively proved. However even the proportion of 0.65 would have proved the Fibonacci hypothesis. We feel that sample size of 30 is insufficient. GOLDEN RATIO What is it exactly? Think of any two numbers. Make a third by adding the first and second, a fourth by adding the second and third, and so on. When you have written down about 20 numbers, calculate the ratio of the last to the second from last...

...Sora stands there in a pure white room, looking around, trying to get a sense of where he is. He glances down at the platform he's standing on, seeing the only design it shows, a pure white rose in a sea of flower petals surrounding it. Various crosses with roses on them also encircle the white rose that's in the middle. As he looks up he sees a purplish black portal that's floating in front of them. In the middle of the portal is a silhouette of a scythe with pink flower petals surrounding it. There was a bright flash of white and behind it stood a man with pale pink hair and dark blue eyes. He stood there in a long black cloak, in his hand he was holding his weapon, the scythe that appeared in the portal he had come through. The weapon stood almost as tall as the graceful assassin. It took the shape of a flower with all but one of its petals torn off. The handle was a light green color, while the center of the flower was yellow. The last remaining petal was a light pink color with black outlining it showing the depth of the blade. There was another white flash as Marluxia appears behind sora and whispers something to him, causing...
