Summary Of The MCLC Library Parody: Case Study

The Cold War was a clash between the ideologies of the United States and the Soviet Union, even though there was no actual fighting between them, it still had a drastic impact on the lives of people who were alive at the time. As a result of experiencing the Cold War some creators used it as influence for literary works. For instance, The Butter Battle Book by Dr. Seuss and Over the Hedge directed By Tim Johnson and Karey Kirkpatrick, reveal the political nature experienced by the opposing sides during the Cold War. Satirical devices in the forms of parody and exaggeration are used to further convey the message the creators want the audience to understand.

People often write off animated films as childish and lacking any depth. However, the movie, Wall-E, points a large microscope at our society and our potential future. In the movie Wall-E, it’s a robot name Wall-E and Ben Burtt’s play’ him. Also, there are other characters is Eve and Elissa Knight play’s her. There's a that they go on because the planet earth doesn’t have a living plant except one. They have to place the plant in the place that the plant will go so they can get to earth. The Captain is played by Jeff Garlin and, the Captain had a hard time to get the plant into the deposit that it’s supposed to go in. Satire is used for humor and poke fun at a thing that is happening like when the place is in the chair they are too lazy to get up and do their own things. Also, they have the robots bring them the food. It pokes fun at humans because humans are lazy and us humans what other people or robots to get are things cause the humans made robots so people wouldn’t have to get up. They also wanted to show what happens to the earth if we don’t take care of it and, it will turn all to trash and doesn’t look like a nice place to live. The director Andrew Stanton used the movie, Wall-E, and satire as a way to criticize and comment on technology and environment in our society.

In our daily lives advertisement are seen all around is. We see them on billboards and on our phone. This is how must things get known to people .In M.T. Anderson’s young adult novel Feed, Anderson uses satire to criticize how things are advertised in order to warn readers about how advertising manipulates them into doing things.

For the Barbie Bungee lab, the groups used their knowledge about Bivariate Statistics to accurately find the relationship between the number of rubber bands and the length barbie fell. After identifying this relationship, the groups used the line of best fit formula to determine how many rubber bands would be needed in order to drop the doll from a known height and get the closest to the ground without touching it. One group completed this lab and was able to get there doll to get as close as 19 inches from the ground after dropping the Barbie from a height of 280.24 inches in the air.

The slope of the linear fit of the data is 1.0049. What this tells me about the water is that it is increasing at a close to constant rate – while my results were not completely accurate because the slope of the line was not one it was fairly close to the target

Finally we got all our number and determine the slope, and the intercept in order to find out the forecast for the next

Introduction: Today scientists put acquired data into a form of a graph. This said graph is designed to help make predictions and furthermore, study and understand the experiment and its contents at hand. The Graphing and Estimating lab involves just that. The lab is designed to collect data from several tests involving burn time of a candle.

Doing laundry, studying, eating, knowing how to manage time, being social, dealing with bad choices, and so many others are all things we have to deal with when going off to college for the first time (Pennock Title). Some of these are simple everyday things that come natural to us, like breathing, but some can be much more difficult than others. One that is rather trying is finding time to get your laundry done. Often times it’s not finding the time to do your laundry, but the resources to do so. I don’t mean if a machine is available or not, but if a machine is working or not. Having problems with machine functionality seems to be a common trend when it comes to university life.

4) Use cubic regression to determine an equation for the data (or lwh where (12 – x) represents the sides and (x) represents the height of the box).

If they do not, but are within the acceptable margin of error of ±20√4=±40’’, each angle is corrected to create a sum of 360˚. For this project, the angles added to 360˚ 00’ 10’’. After each angle is corrected, angle 412 is 78˚31’03’’, angle 123 is 99˚01’23’’, angle 234 is 92˚32’21’’, and angle 341 is 89˚53’13’’. After using the Total Station, the Auto level is used to measure the elevations of each point. The known elevation outside of Powell is 380’. The Auto level is placed between each point to measure the backsight and foresight. Once all the points are measured, all the backsights and foresights can be measured with the difference taken to find the error. With this project, the error was -0.128’. Next, the pacing between each point must be taken to find the correction for each elevation with the equation, (distance from known elevation/total level network distance) X total error. The total pacing for the project is 235 steps with a pace of 2.31 feet per step. After the corrections, point 4 is 379.384’, point 3 is 378.182’, point 2 is 379.093’, and point 1 is 379.645’. A transit is used to find the true north from the magnetic

In the Netflix mockumentary series, American vandal, made by Dan Perrault, the main character Dylan Maxwell, an 18-year-old senior at Hanover High School was held responsible for performing vandalism on 27 cars causing $100K worth of disfiguring. Everybody believed that Dylan was in charge of the destruction, despite the fact that he claimed innocence. Instead, they thought Alex Trimboli, the "eyewitness," Ms Shapiro, the Spanish teacher and everyone else that claimed he was behind the vandalism were speaking the truth. They put Dylan as the prime suspect based on his past with Ms Shapiro and furthermore because they believed he was capable of committing such crime. The thesis of the show is never to prejudge a person based on their past. That may sound as cliche as it appears to be yet the accompanying procedures used to shape the show will enable one to see how under the circumstances this might be viewed as a cliche thesis. The examples of satire that the creators used were humour, exaggeration and irony. A diversion was utilised to make the show enjoyable for young people, yet with the use of satire, they could influence teenagers to appreciate the show while accepting a genuine message about how a false allegation against anyone could destroy their lives. Many of the people in the show were biased against rebellious teenagers which was something that Dylan was known for being. In the mockumentary, Dylan Maxwell was accused based off his image, his past, as well as his

To say that Galaxy Quest (Parisot) is a satire/parody of Star Trek (Rodenberry) does not give it enough credit. This movie only gets better each time I see it. It is one of my roommate’s favorite movies, and with the recent death of Alan Rickman I chose to review it. As someone who grew up watching Star Trek reruns in syndication, I found it hysterically funny. A surface viewing finds it enjoyable, and even people who do not embrace Star Trek like it. I interviewed a non-Trekkie friend who says she has watched it at least half a dozen times "Mainly for Tony Shaloub." She loves the way he has sex with the alien. The movie casually embraces the fanatical nature of the Star Trek phenomenon, and playfully references inside jokes of the cast. In fact it was voted the seventh best Star Trek movie of all time by fans at a 2013 convention in Las Vegas.(Faraci) So what is it that makes Galaxy Quest a cult classic?

A linear formula idea will be used and the decision variables will be labeled as follow:

The line of best-fit is used to find the gradient, the T2/L value, if straight or linear it shows that the relationship between the two is directly proportional. Using the original equation, you can square both sides and rearrange it to make . Then you can input the gradient value (T2/L) and work out g. , where g equals 10.13 m/s2. This value is close to the

The refined equation fits the data much more closely at the beginning, yet around the Age = 13 mark it starts to deviate again. Looking at this graph, one can come to the conclusion that it will take more than one mathematical function to graph the entirety of the data.
