Using the NASA budget provided and my job of using the best materials and keeping the expenses low for a design for a lander, I finally came down to a design. My design choices include a parachute of 100 m. This includes having a surface area large enough that it can produce air friction. A safety cage of a cubic capsule in where the egg has four surfaced sides in which it can land on. Also , includes a crumple zone that has rigid lander legs .This will give a medium rigidity where it can withstand

Flatbed carriers encounter sunshine, rain, snow, wind and other elements as they roll down the road. Drivers have to protect their cargo with tarps and fastening devices to keep it protected from the weather. Most times, those tarps are large, heavy, fold-up versions that have to be manually hauled to the top of the load. Once they're in place, they have to be spread out and secured at multiple points on the trailer bed. This is one of the most dangerous and strenuous parts of a driver's job. Standard

seasons of RuPaul’s Drag Race, RuPaul and the Drag queens challengers get help from “the Pit Crew”. They are a group of very muscular and masculine men, and they wear just their underwear and show a lot of body. The men have usually no talking part and they show up as an “eye candy” for the viewers (Pit Crew, 2014). In the last episode of season 6, the difference between the masculine and the feminine is big during this scene, in the last challenge, RuPaul and the last remaining Drag Queens

Burning We recently watched the film Paris is Burning, a documentary about black drag queens in Harlem and their culture surrounding balls. Directly related we also read two feminist critiques, Gender is Burning: Questions of Appropriation and Subversion by Judith Butler and Is Paris Burning by bell hooks. Two areas of critique I focus on and question are the critiques regarding the filmmaker, audience and drag queens and how they participate to reinforce a heterosexual racist patriarchy. Furthermore

was involved in. Looking around there were couples of all ages, singles, friends, parents, and grandparents all there in support of their loved ones. It was great to see the support considering the events that had unfolded earlier in the evening. The drag queens took the stage and the crowd warmed up to their performance. The first few performances it was the younger crowd who seemed to be enjoying it, but as the evening progressed most of the crowd was on the dance floor cheering for the queens. Once

more about the Drag community and the effect that pop culture has had on it, I looked to my best friend, Noah Simpson, also known as Blasphemy, his Drag persona. He is a fresh face in the Pittsburgh Drag scene, who has recently reached a one-year milestone of doing Drag. My interview focused on getting to know Blasphemy and her thoughts on Drag today through these questions: 1.) How would you describe Drag in pop culture today? 2.) What is it like to be a “fresh face” in Drag? 3.) How do you

The film, Kinky Boots, is about a young shoe factory owner named Charlie Price, and his partnership with a drag queen named Lola. After his father’s death, Charlie had a choice to either sell the company, or to take on the responsibilities left by his father. Choosing to take on the business, he created a goal to save the factory by making a shoe designed for a niche market, drag queens.

This project is focused on drag queens and the extent to which they perform gender. Many scholars have looked at the performance of gender within the context of the gender binary. Many scholars, feel that drag breaks down this binary whereas others feel that the binary and heteronormativity are perpetuated by and instilled within drag. Regardless of the debate, it goes without question that drag queens perform gender on stage. The topic of drag queens performing gender is sociologically important

Fluid Mechanics 3-Aerofoil Lab Report Introduction This report aims to investigate the effect the angle of attack of an aerofoil has on the air flow around it. This was done by recording the lift and drag forces the aerofoil experienced when positioned at different angles of attack. The experimental lift force the aerofoil experienced when positioned at different angles of attack was then compared with theoretical values. An attempt was made to explain any discrepancies
