Professor Gibson ANTH300Clifford Redmond Jr March 12, 2014 A Genetic Trait: Dimples In many eyes, dimples are considered a mark of beauty and loveliness. In an article by Manali Oak she describes "Dimples" almost perfectly. "Technically speaking, dimples are visible indentations formed as a result of the underlying flesh of the cheeks" (Oak, Manali 2009). It's very difficult for us to understand that dimples are the outcome of a birth defect resulting from contracting scar tissue or trauma (TheFreeDictionary
Have you ever wondered if smiling is contagious? When the old lady at the grocery store smiles at you, can’t you feel the smile spreading across your face? Many people believe that smiling is contagious. On page 8 of David R. Hamilton’s book The Contagious Power of Thinking: How Your Thoughts Can Influence the World, David states, “You only need to flash a smile at someone to raise a smile in them. No matter how hard they try to resist, smiling is contagious.” (Hamilton, 2011) Is David stating his
In the novel, the main female character named Dimple Dasgupta breaks the traditional notion of an Indian wife. She is shown in the novel as a vibrant person but with a sort of mental aberration or apathy. Even while she was unmarried, she nurtured number of fixations such as the nature of husband she is going to have, the manner in which her marriage is going to take place and the kind of married life she is going to lead …etc. All her dreams and aspirations about her married life get shattered.
1.0 Introduction A golf ball is a spherical ball with dimples on surface that specially designed to be used in a game of “golf”. The currently used material for the core body is rubber. Polybutediene rubber is synthetic rubber which is tough but elastic like the tires’ properties, this explains why most of the ball speed is due to the rubber core properties. The inner cover of golf ball is usually made up of surlyn, but sometime surlyn also made up the outer cover of golf ball. Surlyn is an ionomer
The contrast was written by Royal Tyler. Royall Tyler (1757–1826) “was born in Boston, studied law at Harvard, and then served in the army before writing The Contrast” ( n.d. Web. 20 Oct. 2013). He was American jurist and playwright who wrote The Contrast in 1787. The setting of the play is in “New York and its upper-class society”. It is an American play inspired by Richard Sheridan’s “The School for Scandal”, he was so inspired by this show that he wrote his own play “The contrast in three weeks”
Golf is an activity enjoyed by people of every age. Everything from the dimples on ball to the angle of the club and the momentum of the swing to the layout of the course golf uses mathematics. Golf has so many aspects that I could have used for this paper, but do to lack of time I choose to focus on specifically the golf ball and golf club. These two items are essential for the game of golf and have also changed the most. The golf ball is designed in a way that always it to float through the air
to project a further distance. Outer cover is the external of golf ball which the surface face air and water in other word can say as the surface facing the environment. Outer cover is the place where dimples are located as show in figure 2.2-1 by (Frank, 2014) Figure 2.2-1: Golf ball with dimple In the process of making a golf ball there two type of ... ... middle of paper ... ...n term of it resillence, abrasion resistance and also high in spin rate compare to Balata.

Filled with demonstrations of voting machines and oversized punch-card ballots. The election was ultimately made overcomplicated due to the counting of ballots which were now being re-counted on a local level because of what we now call DIMPLES AND CHADS. Dimples and Chads are funny names to be given to election ballots; but then again, what wasn't funny about this election as a whole? Election ballots are set up to be like punch-in cards. A person casts their vote, and a hole is punched into a ballot

After spending good seven years abroad, she finds Calcutta vastly different than what was in her childhood memories wheras Wife, her second novel looks at a new aspect of wifehood in an alien mileu. Wife is a saga of a wife named Dimple, a day dreamer who ruthlessly kills her husband owing to her inability to adopt to the host culture of the US.
the golf has little spots that look like dimples well there’s a good explanation for the way they stricted the ball and why they added the small spots. So the dimples on a golf ball create a think turbulent boundary layer of air over the ball’s surface. Because of that if reduces air resistance which results in the ball traveling a farther distance than a smooth ball would. For making a shot as long as possible the distance improvement due to the small dimples is desirable. The air flow over the ball
existence of the golf ball as we know it today. Have you ever wandered why there are dimples on golf balls? It turns out that they have dimples for more than cosmetic purposes. The original golf balls were actually made out of smooth horsehide. Golfers discovered that the balls that were scarred up seemed to travel further, so they preferred using the old balls to new ones. Eventually golf balls were made with the dimples to simulate the scarring of the old balls. While early golfers may not have realized
The Physics of a Golf Ball The first written reference of golf was in 1457. Golf balls have had extraordinary changes since that time; they've gone from leather pouches to dried gum to today's dimpled balls. These dimples help decrease the drag and increase the lift. Different forces are applied to the golf ball when struck by the club. Golf clubs have grooves to create backspin. And then there are different variables that affect how a golf ball will travel, these include: lie angle and
teaching positions at McGill University and Concordia University. She migrated to the U.S.A. in 1980 with her family and became a U.S.A. citizen in 1988 In her novels Jasmine and Wife, Bharathi Mukherjee has shown a dual cultural shock. Jasmine and Dimple leave their respective countries in search of their dreams. This migration or “cultural transplant” leads to a crisis of identity and a final reconciliation to the choice. She has presented a fascinating study of
Introduction to Aerodynamics Aerodynamics is the study of the motion of fluids in the gas state and bodies in motion relative to the fluid/air. In other words the study of aerodynamics is the study of fluid dynamics specifically relating to air or the gas state of matter. When an object travels through fluid/air there are two types of flow characteristics that happen, laminar and turbulent. Laminar flow is a smooth steady flow over a smooth surface and it has little disturbance. Intuition would
Over the past 250 years, America as a nation has evolved. Its beliefs, customs, and citizens have undergone changes with the times. It seems only natural, then, that its drama would also evolve. American drama of the 20th century was far removed from that of the 18th century. The differences are stark and many, and to fully appreciate what American drama is today, it helps to know where it came from. The evolution of American drama, from its earliest form to the modern works of Eugene O’Neill and
Practical – Trends in the Periodic Table Reactivity of the group 7 elements - the halogens Ref: Saunders N. 2000, Creative Chemistry You have seen that the Group 1 alkali metal elements increase in reactivity as you go down the group. Sodium is less reactive than potassium, which is less reactive than rubidium (which you weren’t allowed to observe directly!) Today, you will use displacement reactions to work out the order of reactivity of the Group 17 halogen elements using Chlorine, Bromine
slows the ball from bouncing forward greatly. This is why some professional golfers use this shot on the tour. The dimples on the golf ball help the ball fly further than a solid smooth one does. The dimples are a thin layer on the outside of the ball; it is called the “boundary layer.” This creates a turbulence in the boundary layer, it also helps the ball get height due to the dimples are like scopes and they help the ball accelerate as it sends the air towards the cover of the ball which the air
On March 16th, I watched the movie Recount directed by Ray Roach. After watching the movie, I was asked to, “Criticize whether the election of 2000, between G.W. Bush and Al Gore was legitimate.” I strongly believe the election was beyond unfair. From the very beginning of the movie you can tell that the votes were coming in close.. Ron Clane asks if the Democrats were going to win and another man responds, “Yes, but it will be a squeaker,” suggesting that this is a close match between the two of
