...To get through difficulties in life different people have various solutions however one of the most renowned solution to most struggling individuals is to turn to God for help. Especially problems that involve race, Jesus is considered the answer since it is an immense overlapping between the two conflicting diversities. In “The Color of Water” by James McBride, the main character, Ruth who was a Jewish mom and wife to two African-American men, brought up twelve children and gave them the best education all because of her God. She dealt with many biracial questions and one day when her son pressingly asked her if Jesus was black or white she responded the he was the color of water. The central idea is that identity is not based on color however it is plainly the color of water while who we really are is the choices we make in life....

...Intro This method is used for the determination of ammonia nitrogen in drinking water, ground water, surface water, and domestic and industrial wastes according to USEPA Method 350.1 and Standard Methods 4500–NH3 H. Prior to analysis, ammonia is buffered to pH 9.5 and distilled into a solution of boric acid. Cyanate, which may be encountered in certain industrial effluents, hydrolyzes to some extent, even at the pH of 9.5 at which distillation is carried out. #Distillation - adding excess base to the acid digestion mixture to convert NH4+ to NH3, followed by boiling and condensation of the NH3 gas in a receiving solution. #Titration - to quantify the amount of ammonia in the receiving solution. #The amount of nitrogen in a sample can be calculated from the quantified amount of ammonia ions in the receiving solution. The DistillationProcess The acid digestion mixture is diluted and made strongly alkaline with NaOH, liberating NH3 as follows: (NH4)2SO4 + 2NaOH ➝ 2NH3↑ + Na2SO4 + 2H2O Ammonium sulphate heat gas ammonia The Kjeldahl flask is attached to a water condenser and is heated to boil off the NH3 gas from the digest. The tip of the condenser is submerged in a flask of acidic receiving solution, either standard acid or boric acid solution, to again trap the distilled NH3 in receiving solution. NaOH Addition Concentrated NaOH (usually 50% solution) is added slowly...

...Water-Young-Il Ahn On the day of Friday April 10, 2015, I Angie Ramirez visited the Long Beach Museum of Art and came across a painting that I found breathtaking. The painting happened to be by 80-year-old painter, Young-Il Ahn. Water ALB14, is a painting inspired by the ocean. It is a large piece of art; one that is even taller than me; keeping in mind I am five feet two inches and this painting measures at exactly 72 x 60 inches. It is oil on a canvas and is part of Ahn’s A Memoir of Water Works. This painting is a startling piece of work. In this painting, Ahn uses bold colors and texture to mimic the immensity of the ocean and the constant movement of the waves. He uses mostly different shades of blue, red, green, and yellow. The bright colors he uses are more of a representation of his own creative style. Ahn captures a more private moment using bold colors creating an emotional impact. He used bright colors and elaborately used more of a royal blue than red, yellow, and green. . He also used graceful and sensuous lines that seem to appear as small brushstrokes. The surfaces on this painting are textured beautifully and do happen to show a bit of small harsh lines, almost like dabs giving the artwork a dramatic feel. This work of art is represented as non-representational art because it takes nothing from reality. It is created purely for aesthetic reasons. The intent was to use the elements and principles of art in a way that results in a visually stimulating work. Ahn...

...Ethics, What is it? Merriam-Websters dictionary defines it as “The discipline dealing with what is good and bad with moral duty and obligations.” Yet, if we look at many of the things we take for granted today, they remain available to us because of certain unethical and immoral activities that occur. Lets look at two very controversial issues that have come up today; water boarding and genetic engineering. Is water boarding a form of torture or not? Both sides bring a valid argument to the table. Is genetic engineering socially acceptable or not? Is it a form of acceptance in this new age society? I think that water boarding is ethical and is a successful way of getting a subject to come forth with information withheld, whereas genetic engineering is something which is unethical and immoral. Water boarding is a method used to extract information and is sometimes also referred to as a “torture method”. This approach has been under scrutiny since its introduction in the late 14th century. The method, originally called “water torture” or “water cure”. At that time period it was a way of water induced confession. Today, the methods have changed slightly but the objective is still the same. In today's military, our special forces use this tactic in their SERE (Survival Evasion Resistance Escape) training to prepare for any unorthodox treatment they would receive from enemy forces not complying with the Geneva Convention. The CIA also has used this and is currently using this as...

...THE MATERIALS USED IN TIE AND DYE. 4 THE STEPS /PROCEDURES USED TO CARRY OUT TIE AND DYE. Tie dye is a technique for dying natural fabrics that results in interesting, colorful patterns. The technique involves crumpling, pleating or folding the fabric into various patterns, then tying it with string, hence the name. The tied fabric is dipped into vats of dye, then wrung out and rinsed. Tied areas accept dye unevenly amidst the folds, creating varied patterns in the finished product. It is important to select natural fabrics to tie dye, as synthetic material does not readily accept dye. Cotton is an excellent choice, making tie dye tee shirts a favorite. You can also tie dye silk scarves, bed sheets, blouses, skirts and pants. People commonly use three colors in the tie dye process, though you can use more colors or fewer colors as well. When using multiple colors,...

...predominate methods of advertising today would be the use of television commercials and printed ads in magazines or newspapers, also the emergence of pop up ads that we are seeing using our internet. The success of a company that is in the line of business to sell something or promote something, sets aside an advertising budget in order to make them successful. It is goal and purpose of advertising to set forth an image and brand that is easily recognizable by the general public. The more brand recognition means the more that the consumer is likely to trust and purchase. To consolidate our focus let’s take a look at the use of advertisement in the healthy food-snacks section of the advertisement world. Chosen out of the several choices in the section, there were three that stood out the most, due to the brand loyalty, familiarity and recognition of the methods that the advertisers are using and have already built into the products base structure. In these let’s see what the advertiser is trying to say with words, images and suggestions that will make the consumer associate with and desire the product. Breaking each of the three advertisements down should shed some light on what is becoming a more...

...characteristic is the T shape made with the body and sleeves. It is normally associated with short sleeves, a round neck line, and no collar .T-Shirts are typically made of cotton fibers (sometimes others), knitted together in a jersey stitch that gives a T-Shirt its distinctive soft texture. The majority of modern T-Shirts have a body that is made from a continuously woven tube, so the torso has no side seams. This is accomplished with special weaving machines called circular looms, which produce seamless fabric for tube tops, stockings, and the like. Conventional stitching is used for the waist band, neck band, sleeves and to close the shoulders. The manufacture of T-Shirts has become highly automated, and may include fabric cutting by laser or water jet. T-Shirt fashions include many styles for both men and women, and for all age groups, including baby, youth, teen, adult and elderly sizes. The T-Shirt evolved from undergarments used in the 19th century, through cutting the one-piece "union suit" underwear into separate top and bottom garments, with the top long enough to tuck under the waistband of the bottoms. T-Shirts, with and without buttons, were adopted by miners and stevedores during the late 19th century as a convenient covering for hot environments. T-Shirts, as a slip-on garment without buttons, originally became popular in the United States when they were issued by the U.S. Navy during or following the Spanish–American War of 1898. These were a crew-necked, short-sleeved...

...CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION Candies are ideal choice when your product requires exceptional color, aroma, or flavor quality. Most commonly, candies are hard molded sugar that may be presented by designated forms or shards with highly concentrated color and rich flavor. On the other hand, tomato (Lycopersicum Esculentum) is a common name for a perennial herb. It belongs to the nightshade family, Solanaceae, and for its edible fruit. Botanically, the tomato is a fruit, but for purposes of trade it is classified as a vegetable. Because tomatoes are warm-season plants and sensitive to frost, they are grown as annuals in temperate climate. Tomato is a red fruit which is rich a good source of collagen. It is also an excellent source of vitamins A and C, lycopene which is a natural antioxidant, and potassium. The tomato is also used medicinally. The pulp and the juice are digestible, mild aperients (laxative), promoter of gastric secretion, and a very good blood cleanser or purifier. They are considered as an intestinal antiseptic, useful in cancer of the mouth, for sore throat. It stimulates a turpid liver, and is good for dyspepsia. It is highly prescribed for case of biliousness and it promotes the flow of bile. The juice is recommended for asthma, bronchitis, and those who have tuberculosis. One doctor says: “Tomatoes have the richest vitamins of all foods; they are the most wonderful blood cleanser of all foods known to man; the richest of all vegetables with their...

...A paint is formulated as a mixture of four ingredients: * Binder is the main ingredient of paints. Binders are polymers (resins) forming a continuous film on the substrate surface.Binders are responsible for good adhesion of the coating to the substrate. * Solvent (water or organic solvent) is a medium where the binder, pigment and additives are dispersed in molecular form (true solutions) or ascolloidal dispersions (emulsions or sols). * Pigment is a solid substance dispersed throughout the coating to impart it a color, opacity (hide the substrate surface). * Additives are small amounts of substances modifying the paint properties. 2.Explain the difference between the terms paint, varnish and lacquer * Paints will have pigments, that is coloring molecules that are in suspension in a liquid (but not dissolved). Pigments are more stable than dyes, but you have to work harder to keep them in suspension, what is why one has to stir paint to make it uniform. * Varnish is a clear, hard solution that is principally applied to wood to give it a glossy finish while forming a protective film around it. Varnish consists of a resin, a drying oil and a thinner or solvent. Since varnishes have very little color, they can also be applied over a wood stain to enhance the shine of the wood. What is Lacquer? * Lacquer is a type of solvent-based product that is made by dissolving nitrocellulose together with plasticizers and pigments in a mixture of volatile solvents...
