    The Skin Im In

    This story by Sharon Flake is a very despairing story. It shows all of the pain and suffering a young girl named Maleeka had to face growing up. Maleeka was bullied because of her skin color. She was a little darker than everybody else so she was teased terribly because of it. For example, on page 3 of The Skin I’m In, John-John would make fun of her color by making a song about how her skin is so dark that they “just can’t see her”. She even internalized this belief by referring to herself as a “thing” when she described how she was the darkest.…

    The Adventure

    Chapters 4-6 of The Great Gatsby revealed a lot about Jay Gatsby to the readers. The first thing to jump out at me was that Jay Gatsby’s real name is actually James Gatz. Also, Gatsby revealed that his parents were originally from the mid-western city of San Francisco. It became clear that Gatsby was living a life of uncertainty and that he was a mystery who chased wealth and greatness. The relationship between Gatsby and Nick changed a lot over these chapters. It is apparent that Nick lost some respect for Gatsby, once he began finding out some key details about his life and where he actually came from. When attending college, Gatsby dropped out after two weeks because he couldn’t handle the hard-working career as a janitor to support himself and make it through college. When Gatsby asks Nick to go to Coney Island, Nick declines his offer. Immediately after, Nick is asked by Gatsby to go swimming, he says that he just needs to go to bed. Now that Nick is finding out about Jay, he doesn’t really want all that much to do with him.…

    Scuba Diving

    Henry's Law states that the amount of gas that will dissolve in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of that gas. According to Henry's Law, at the higher pressure a diver exposes his body, the more gases it will absorb. This can cause the diver different problems based on the absorption of a high amount of a specific gas. This law explains why decompression illness happens when divers go into depths below 120 feet. In shallow depths, the diver can handle the pressure and gas absorption without many problems.…

Ramon, played by Javier Bardem, is confined to a bed because he is paralyzed from the neck down. One day when he was out on the rocks by the ocean, he decided that he would want to dive into the water from the cliffs, but he didn’t realize that the water was very shallow.

They took care of his every need. Ramon’s nephew, Javi, helped him bring his inventions to life.

    Tele-Immersion

    It is 2010 and you have a very important meeting with your business associates in Chennai. However you have visitors from Japan coming for a mega business deal the same day. Is there any technology by which you can deal with both of them? The answer is yes and the name of that technology is Tele-Immersion. Tele-Immersion is a technology by which you’ll interact instantly with your friend on the other side of the globe through a simulated holographic environment. This technology, which will come along with Internet2, will change the way we work, study and get medical help. It will change the way we live. Tele-Immersion (TI) is defined as the integration of audio and video conferencing, via image-based modeling, with collaborative virtual reality (CVR) in the context of data-mining & significant computation. The 3D effect behind the tele-immersion makes it feel like the real thing. The ultimate goal of TI is not merely to reproduce a real face-to-face meeting in every detail, but to provide the “next generation” interface for collaborators, world-wide, to work together in a virtual environment that is seamlessly enhanced by computation and large databases. When participants are tele-immersed, they are able to see and interact with each other and objects in a shared virtual environment.…
