The Book vs. The Movie
The Legend of Sleepy Hollow written by Ivring was a very interesting story that is well known around the world today. The movie was far more entertaining than reading the book If I must say so myself. Tim Burton gave a new spin to The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. I myself have always enjoyed anything written or directed by Tim Burton because of his sense of horror and his creative abilities. The characters are redefined even though Tim Burton strays away from the book and put his own ideas into what should happen in Sleepy Hollow, because of this the story is altertered and more lifelike and connectable. Bron who was very important in the book is even hardly recognized in the movie even though he was willing to give his life for his love Katrina. Bron who actually did give his life for Katrina in the story is horribly overlooked in the movie.
Although the book and the movie differ is many extremities, the movie tends to leave out the setting city ‘’Terry Town’’. Also the movie calls the tree the Dead Man’s Tree but in the book it is given a proper name. In the story Bron was thought to be the Headless Horseman. This movie was far easier to follow then the story. Also it was more interesting than the story in my opinion or it could just be that I enjoy anything with Jonny Depp in it. “The forests had put on their sober brown and yellow, while some trees of the tenderer kind had been nipped by the frosts into brilliant dyes of orange, purple, and scarlet. Streaming files of wild ducks began to make their appearance high in the air; the back of the squirrel might be heard from the groves of beech and hickory-nuts, and the pensive whistle of the quail at intervals from the neighboring stubble field. The small birds were taking their farewell banquets. In the fullness of their revelry, they fluttered, chirping and frolicking from bush to bush, and tree to tree, capricious from the very

    a.) The first property of water is its polarity. A water molecule is formed by one oxygen atom covalently bonded to two hydrogen atoms. The electronegativity of the oxygen atom creates an unequal sharing of electrons between the O and H atoms of the molecule. This also gives water the ability to form hydrogen bonds between the slightly negative oxygen atom and the slightly positive hydrogen atom. Water has a high specific heat due to the hydrogen bonds. Because of this, water requires a large amount of energy to raise its temperature by just one degree. The polar nature of water allows the water molecules to attach to one another this is called cohesion. Cohesion gives water its surface tension where the water molecules bind to each other making it difficult for the surface to be broken.…

    In order to understand a little bit about the effects of common household drugs such as nicotine and caffeine on pulsation rate, an experiment was conducted with Lumbriculus Variegattus (Blackworms). In week 1, we observed the basal rate of three different worms, and then placed the same three worms on different concentrations of caffeine and nicotine. “Caffeine is known to act as an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain; it promotes sleep and suppresses aurosal, binding to the adenosine neurotransmitter receptor to block its inhibitory action” (CCNY lab manual, 2014). Before our experiment was conducted we hypothesized that increasing the concentration of caffeine will increase the pulsation rate. During this experiment we used 1.0mM, 3.0mM, and 10.0mM concentrations of caffeine. The highest the concentration the more effect it would have on the pulsation rate, so in this case we could assume that 10.0mM would have the highest effect on the pulsation rate of the blackworms.…

    The Sleepy Hollow is the first of the three books that have a good comparison between the story and the movie. During The Sleepy Hollow one of the main differences is that in the movie the headless horseman is real and in the book, the horseman is the town's imagination. Another difference in the book is that in the movie the main character seems to Passout a lot, but in the story the character does not faint at all. Some of the similarities between the two are that both have a very dark and creepy setting they are both in an old town and most of the time is dark and at night. Another similarity is…
