Last Christmas, I had the opportunity to experience the fireworks show in Disney World. The theme park’s magic and wonder fascinated me and thus compelled me to choose Gehry’s Walt Disney Concert Hall as my building of study. Both its exterior and interior uphold a quote mentioned in Professor Speck’s lecture by Abbot Suger, “Man reaches contemplation of divine through the senses.” In other words, an individual is able to understand a deeper meaning through use of the five senses. Therefore, every
My hands glide up the keyboard; my feet dance on the pedals. I tame the boisterous, three manual instrument that overwhelms the sanctuary. The pipe organ is magical and soothing. It calms me and provides contentment. For seven years, I have been blessed with the opportunity to learn to play an instrument that, in essence, is a quadruple piano. An instrument capable of producing countless combinations of sounds to fit any mood. When I practice, I experiment with various stop combinations. The sounds
Instruments of a Philharmonic orchestra, their position and how this contributes and or hinders the overall acoustics sound of the score. I chose this topic because I have heard the philharmonic orchestra many times before at ballets over the years. Even though I had heard them I never knew what the orchestra was composed of and how they made an impact on the mood or atmosphere of the room. It also made me curious about how the way that the different instruments worked so well together and how they
• Introduction: Organ pipe park is part of the Greater Western Volcanic Plains , which is the third largest lava formation in the word . The span of these planes runs from Melbourne to Mt Gambier which is situated in South Australia . A million years ago , at Mount Holden were keilor Plains are located , The continual flowing lava of lava in molten form over the plains , filled the preexisting valleys and depressions on the land surface , later on cooled and reached a solid state to form basalt
importance of surveying restoration at Organ Pipes National Park is because it would provide the scientific research, survey and monitoring that will commit to a better understanding and management of the Park.

The management framework is to safeguard the value of Organ Pipes NP location on fringe of metropolitan
What It Takes To Become A Licenced Plumber In Australia The trades are a great way to make a living in Australia. The demand for licenced electricians and plumbers is always increasing. So, it should be no surprise that a lot of people are gravitating towards becoming involved in the trades, either by becoming electricians, plumbers, or other trades. If you are familiar with the laws around electrical work, then you know that there are heavy fines and even jail time associated with DIY electrical

f there is a fire in an aircraft hangar what would put it out? Some would say that automatic sprinklers would do the job or some would say that the fire department would as well. Those answers are both true, but not only are they fitted with a sprinkler system they can also have a low expansion foam system, or a high expansion foam system. Due to the fact that hangars are big and is enclosed they use high expansion foam systems to quickly put out the fire. There are four types of hangars and depending
The Hammond organ is an electromechanical keyboard musical instrument that is an electric organ. Hammond organ Modern digital signal processing and sampling technologies make it possible to accurately reproduce the original sound of Hammond instruments. There are also a number of electronic organs and synthesizers that qualitatively emulate the Hammond organ. However, players appreciate Hammond's original electromechanical instruments for their special feel and feel. Hammond organs are still in
The Organ trade, more specifically commercial trade of human organs, is the practice of treating a human organ as a commodity, for the purpose of being sold or bought for commercial gain (The Kidney Foundation of Canada, n.d.). This practice puts a price on human life, and enables those of wealthier standpoint to mistreat and enable those of a poorer standpoint to put a price on their lives and sell their organs. The coercer of buyer to seller in an organ transaction is the organ broker, one who
and continues to be the major application of medical imaging, although, as described in 9.2.2, functional imaging is a very active area of research. The goal of anatomic imaging is to accurately depict the structure of the body—the size and shape of organs—and to visualize abnormalities clearly. Since the goal in anatomic imaging is to depict and understand the structure of anatomic entities accurately, high spatial resolution is an important requirement of
fixing it with needles, to gain access to the inner organs. Once the area is free, the first cells to be isolated are taken from the peritoneal cavity. A cold mix of PBS and BSA is injected with a syringe into the peritoneal cavity from the upper abdominal part. The cells are then dislodged into the liquid by shaking the board and tapping the body of the mouse. The next step is to cut a hole into the peritoneum and collect as much
was to have a skin transplant, other people could donate skin because their skin grows back automatically. Human skin can grow back, so it’s renewable. If someone needed the skin, others could give it to them without losing their own; unlike other organs like kidneys, skin grows back. It may be a little difficult to match the skin type if the skin is from somebody else, but it isn’t impossible. People with certain types of diabetes need skin grafts to help pressure ulcers in their feet. Although accidents
Naked mole rats. Weird but amazing.. ’Naked Mole Rat’. Good day friends. Today I ll be writing on a very interesting animal..Naked Mole Rat.. A weird looking but amazing creature whose lack of regard for existing natural laws has made it highly distinguishing. Even went as far as defying the gompertz law.. A member of the Order-Rodentia, family-Heterocephalidae, Genus-Heterocephalus, H.glaber specie, this hairless rodent ( thus its name) is also known as sand puppy or desert mole rat. There
Slaughterhouse Blues More than 3,000 animals die every second in abattoirs around the world. We don’t like to think about where our meat comes from. Wrapped in clear cellophane with little more than an expiration date and a picture of a smiling cartoon animal, the gravity of packaged meat loses its impetus. In its final form—as a drumstick, sirloin, flank, breast, brisket, rib—meat becomes an abstract, a consumable with no weight or relevance to the creature it came from. You don’t consider the
appetite or weight loss, rashes and allergic reactions, skin and eye irritation, and many other harmful effects. After the scientists collect all the needed information the animal is then killed to end the experiment, worse still, their internal organs are often examined for harmful effects- depending on the type of tests, the experiment may last for a few hours or may last up to several days or even months. Frankly, animal testing is unethical on many levels. People would make a huge fuss if
Pond Ecosystem Investigation Lab report By: Harshal Buradkar 9 grade Introduction A pond ecosystem consists of abiotic: light intensity of the water, depth of the water, and biotic: fish, plants, bacteria, algae, insects and etc. It also contains water and plants which is the most important part of the pond. Ponds are mostly shallow with the depth of 12-15 feet in which the sun rays can touch the bottom of the pond so that plants can grow. My aim is to find out how the plant cover affect the biodiversity
If we are exploring the anatomy of the heart, then it might make sense to begin exploring the outside, or superficial structures first and work our way in from there. With that said then, we begin with the most superficial layer - the pericardium. The pericardium is essentially a multi-layered membranous sac that surrounds and protects the heart. The pericardium does this by maintaining the hearts position within the mediastinum and preventing the heart from over stretching during vigorous workloads
Nervous System One of the organ systems is the nervous system, it is made up of nerve cells and fibres and its role is to send nerve impulses through the body. There are two main parts to the nervous system which are: the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system. The central nervous system includes the brain and spinal cord and some nerves, whereas the peripheral nervous system includes all the other nerves and consists of motor and sensory neurons that carry impulses from the receptors
The field of tissue engineering still debates whether or not the use of natural scaffolds (ECM) or synthetic scaffolds are ideal when it comes to the longevity, mechanical strength, and efficiency of engineered tissue following transplantation. Although both natural and synthetic scaffolds can be used in tissue engineering, the benefits of creating natural scaffolds through decellularization of the ECM greatly outweighs those of synthetic scaffolds. Fishman and colleagues (2014) highlight these
