The Blob

We know what you’re thinking, “Hairlip?” Yes, Hairlip, the rubber chicken. This mascot has been representing Troupe 5476 for years now. Continuing the tradition of Hairlip means passing down the role of being the “keeper of Hairlip” from one junior to the next. This job includes taking Hairlip to any and all troupe events, placing him in performances at the theatre (with Mr. Buck’s consent), and keeping the spirit of Hairlip alive as a tradition. We have gone through several rubber chickens…

the internet into the world’s physical realm. Blum hopes for with more connections and an open understanding of what the internet is. There is no way I can disagree with the physical evidence Blum provides to show that the internet is not a glowing blob, but a series of tubes. Before this book I too thought of the internet as something you can’t touch. I assumed the wires from my house went to some place nearby and then traveled wirelessly around the world. Blum accomplishes his goal to show…

Hi, I’m Tuity the Tootsie Pop. Would you like to know the story of my life? Well, here I go. I start as a blob of corn syrup and other sugars, I’m liquid and hot. A big cold drip of cherry flavoring goes right onto my face. This is my favorite part, I get shaken and twisted to cool down. I go up and down and get twisted 360 degrees.

A Child’s Haven Looking out the rain stricken window, in hopes to spot the next landmark to tell the distance that remained till reaching the destination, the little girl pondered what wonders this weekend with Grandma would hold. As the boys snored in Dad’s red construction truck, the little girl looked out the window just in time to see the truck merge right off of the busy highway as the rain ceased. After passing acres of grape vines that crept up trellises the rustic barn that housed the…

INTRO: Everywhere in the city we go, we see it. On the walls, behind the public toilet's door, on the alleyway we walk by every morning. It's sometimes small and discreet but at times also large and seemingly eye-catching. What is it? Graffiti, a word commonly mentioned and heard but often misunderstood. According to the online Oxford Dictionary, graffiti is defined as "writing or drawings scribbled, scratched, or sprayed illicitly on a wall or other surface in a public place" (Oxford…

I know what you will be thinking. What am I doing here trying to tell you about the Loch Ness, when you already know pretty much everything about the Loch Ness monster, Nessie? Well, this essay won’t just be about Nessie. Do you know the names of the people who claimed to first see Nessie? Or the fact that they owned a hotel, and that caused people to not believe Nessie was real? I could pretty well teach you some things about the topic everyone claimed to know so much about. Do you really know…

Introduction Subcellular fractionation is when the cellular components separate due to ascending centrifugation speeds. Different cellular components can be separated by densities to form a pellet or supernatant after each centrifugation. This process is used to separate nuclei and mitochondria. Nuclei is a very dense organelle in the center of the cell coordinating the cell’s actions: growth, metabolism, protein synthesis, reproduction. The nuclei also will pellet after the 1st low speed of the…

I deeply inhaled the cool, salty sea air, which blowed in calm gusts. The sun’s rays wrapped around me like a warm blanket, sending happiness and serenity through me. I took deep breaths as I listened to the consistent sound of waves hitting the shore, and rested my tired muscles. It was a perfect day, especially after playing a long, tiring tennis match in Boca Raton, Florida. I lied down on my turquoise beach towel and closed my eyes, simply to relax. “LISA!” my mom shouted, sending…

Bad chewing gum disposal By Samuel Edison There are multiple things that annoy me in this world that we live in, and one of which is in my opinion is by far the worst: Bad disposal of chewing gum.

Us humans need to stop this poor…
