He drives to Cal’s construction site (and current residence) and, upon entering, sees his dad partying with a group of sex workers. It seems like a filler episode and I didn’t really learn anything new about the characters besides how bad Rue is abusing drugs.After Nate flees the East Highland auditorium, mid-dance sequence, we find him in his car, loading a revolver (seemingly the same one he used to threaten Maddy). This episode was all over the place and didn’t end well at all. Cassie is just Nate’s sex toy since the season premiered.I truly believe Cassie could potentially commit suicide if Maddy and Nate get back together. They are making Nate look like Drake but Nate doesn’t have any songs on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Nate is playing with Cassie and Maddy still wants to be with him. Which will be interesting to see from her upcoming play. She’s pretty much documenting everyone’s lives from her eye lens. This episode definitely showed why Lexi Howard needs a backstory. Fez and Ashtray are ‘Euphoria’ versions of Pablo and Popeye. I love how gangster Ashtray is in every episode. You can’t get high off of your own supply which I believe Rue will do which will lead to Rue asking Fez for money or help to pay back Marsha.Ĭal Jacobs realizing Fez has no clue about the disk of him having sex with Jules was pretty fun. Rue making a deal with Marsha was ideally good for Marsha if Rue wasn’t a drug abuser. ![]() I wouldn’t be surprised if she ended up in the hospital before this season ends. It seems like she’s trying to push everyone. This also showcases that Rue is abusing drugs very badly. I started to dislike Rue this episode because of the way she manipulated Gia and the way she was talking to Ali like they didn’t have a stand alone ‘Euphoria’ episode before this season started. I do wish they would have fought like normal siblings because one of them would have caught a slap into the face like how Kourtney Kardashian did to Kim Kardashian but that’s another day. It showed how Rue is very freaking toxic and manipulative with her showcasing her teaching moments. ![]() The Gia and Rue fight scene was another highlight of this episode. From this episode, Jules and Elliot made a connection and I wouldn’t be surprised if she cheats on Rue with Elliot. I didn’t like that they made Jules look like a hoe but Euphoria is a very dark show so they stayed true to their content. I thought it was a good visualization but do wish their scene was a little longer. ![]() One of the highlights in this episode was LGBTQ representation when Jules, Elliot, and Rue were all on screen. The actors in the Cal Jacobs backstory did a very good job. I truly despise the character and I don’t believe there should be any moment that fans should feel bad for him especially since he’s not trying to change. Cal Jacobs story shouldn’t have been longer than Fezco backstory or it shouldn’t have come before Lexi Howard backstory. Not only is he all of those things, he’s a terrible father to Nate. The Cal Jacobs backstory was very predictable and was good until you realize they humanized a rapist and abuser. After a strong start to this season, this episode had me uninterested but had some good moments. The latest episode of ‘Euphoria’ season 2 is my least favorite episode so far this season.

Carefully remove from the steamer and allow to cool before frosting and serving. Turn off the heat and leave the cake in the pot with the lid on for 10 minutes or so until the cake has softened and is as good as new. Bring the water to a steady simmer and carefully place in the cake. Place a steamer into a large pot on the stove and fill with water until it ALMOST reaches the base of the steamer. Just when you think it’s gone a bit stale, this is a fantastic trick. This can be done with a cake that is not frozen but has been left out for a few days as well. And just like that, it will look and taste as good a freshly baked cake.

The most important fact to remember here is that motions along perpendicular axes are independent and thus can be analyzed separately. In this section, we consider two-dimensional projectile motion, such as that of a football or other object for which air resistance is negligible. The motion of falling objects, as covered in Problem-Solving Basics for One-Dimensional Kinematics, is a simple one-dimensional type of projectile motion in which there is no horizontal movement. The object is called a projectile, and its path is called its trajectory. Projectile motion is the motion of an object thrown or projected into the air, subject to only the acceleration of gravity. Apply the principle of independence of motion to solve projectile motion problems.Determine the location and velocity of a projectile at different points in its trajectory.Identify and explain the properties of a projectile, such as acceleration due to gravity, range, maximum height, and trajectory. ![]() It includes the motion of all objects that are given an initial velocity and allowed to fall under gravity. Projectile motion is the motion of an object solely under the influence of gravity. Oblique projectile motion (non horizontally launched projectiles).The three types of projectile motion examples include: What are the three types of projectile motion? The vertical and horizontal components of a projective motion do not influence one another.ġ.The path traced by projectiles is called a trajectory.When objects launched into the air fall only under the influence of gravity, they are called projectiles.On the other hand, the green ball continuously travels further with a horizontal component of motion while still falling under the influence of gravity and traces a parabolic curve. In other words, the time of flight of projectile for both the balls is exactly the same! The orange ball has a vertical component of motion, but its horizontal component is zero. Under the influence of gravity, if you were to shoot a cannonball horizontally and drop a cannonball simultaneously from the same position, both the balls would hit the ground at the same time. Consider the cannon shown in the above figure. When studying projectile motion in two dimensions, it is essential to understand that the vertical and horizontal components of motion of the object don’t influence one another. WHAT CREATES THE CURVE IN THE TRAJECTORY? Under the absence of gravity, the ball would continue to fly horizontally in a straight line. The gravitational acceleration (g) increases the vertical component of velocity every second, as shown by the vector diagram in the figure. The moment the ball leaves the cannon, it begins to fall under the influence of gravity. Consider a cannon shooting a ball at 20 m/s horizontally: It is important to divide its motion into vertical and horizontal components to analyze projectile motion. While the primary force acting on a projectile is gravity, air creates some resistance to its motion called drag.Īir resistance can significantly change the trajectory of a projectile however, it is ignored in most introductory physics problems. ![]()

In 1967, Minute Maid relocated to Houston, Texas, and joined with Duncan Foods to form the Coca-Cola Foods division. The Minute Maid company was purchased by Coca-Cola in 1960. In late 1954, Minute Maid purchased rival Snow Crop. In October 1949, the company adopted the name Minute Maid Corp. The Crosby radio show ran until October 1950 and the ability to purchase fresh-tasting orange juice at any time of year, far from where oranges are grown, proved popular, and led to the company's national success. And in the scramble for the new market, Vacuum figures that Crosby is just the Pied Piper needed to lure customers away from the old brand names." But Vacuum hopes to step up output enough to fill the new orders Crosby will bring in. The shortage temporarily takes some of the bloom off the Crosby deal. Demand is so great, said Fox, that Vacuum has had to allocate shipments and is thinking of setting up a California plant. Nevertheless, Vacuum’s sales increased so much that President Fox announced last week that the net profit for its last fiscal year was $179,865. Ask anybody.” Anybody in the frozen food industry agreed-and Birds Eye, Snow Crop and others began to put out their own concentrate. Fox: “Why, this orange juice thing is the wonder of the grocery world. With little cash to advertise, it lost $450,262 the first two years. "Minute Maid (retail price: 29¢ a pint and a half) got into the field first in 1945, at a new $2,300,000 plant in Plymouth, Fla. The magazine article gave further details: In October 1948, TIME magazine announced that entertainer Bing Crosby was to employ a 5-day a week radio show to promote Minute Maid. With limited funds for advertising, Fox himself went door to door giving free samples, until demand skyrocketed. The same month, the company was renamed Vacuum Foods Corporation. The first shipment took place in April 1946. Loudon Advertising came up with the name Minute Maid, implying the juice was quick and easy to prepare. Rather than selling powder to the public market, the company decided to create frozen orange juice concentrate, using a process that eliminated 80 percent of the water in orange juice. The war ended and the contract was canceled before the factory could be built, but with investment, the company moved forward with a product. Fox, Florida Foods Corporation won a government contract worth $750,000 for 500,000 lb (227,000 kg) of powdered orange juice for the war. The US Army wanted to extend this process to nutritious food, so NRC created a new subsidiary, the Florida Foods Corporation. In 1945, the National Research Corporation (NRC) of Boston, Massachusetts, developed a method of dehydrating medical products for use in the U.S. James Place, the former Minute Maid headquarters, in Houston, Texas ![]() It employs over 1,900 people and has over $2 billion in sales (1997 est.). The company was originally incorporated in 1945 as Florida Foods, Inc, then later became Vacuum Foods Corporation. The firm opened its headquarters in Sugar Land Town Square in Sugar Land, Texas, United States, on Februpreviously it was headquartered in the 2000 St. The Minute Maid Company is owned by The Coca-Cola Company, the world's largest marketer of fruit juices and drinks. Minute Maid was the first company to market frozen orange juice concentrate, allowing it to be distributed throughout the United States and served year-round. Minute Maid is sold under the Cappy brand in Central Europe and under the brand "Моя Семья" (Moya sem'ya, "My Family") in Russia and the Commonwealth of Independent States.

Not only did Peppers have the sack against the Giants, he also had another quarterback hit and deflected two passes. I can't say enough about Julius Peppers." "I can't recall someone, particularly at that position, that played the way he's playing ," McCarthy said. Meanwhile, coach Mike McCarthy began to give Peppers days off from practice in an effort to preserve his legs. Injuries to Clay Matthews forced defensive coordinator Dom Capers to expand Peppers' role, and he started to contribute once again. Yet Peppers said at the time, "I know I can make plays." And sure enough, he did. While playing a reduced role, he had only 3.5 sacks in his first nine games. So good that his former college coach Matt Doherty once said he thinks Peppers could have played in the NBA.Įarly this season, it appeared Peppers' best days might have been behind him. "A lot of people say he's a good basketball player." "I didn't know he went to North Carolina," Clark said. The rookie defensive tackle also had no idea at the time that Peppers also played basketball at North Carolina. Peppers already had a three-sack game by the time Clark turned 7 on Oct. I was probably really young when he was playing for the Panthers."Ĭlark, one of the youngest players in last year's draft, was 6 years old when Peppers broke into the NFL with the Panthers. "When I remember Julius growing up, he was playing for the Bears. "Honestly, I don't remember that he was playing for the Panthers at first," Clark said. Eighty-one of his career regular-season sacks came with the Panthers, which was news to Packers rookie Kenny Clark when he first met Peppers. Peppers moved into fifth on the NFL's career sack list last month. He has another 4.5 sacks in the five playoff games he's played in for the Packers. Peppers can count 25 of his 143.5 career regular-season sacks during his three years in Green Bay. With that sack, Peppers' season total reached 8.5, second on the team to Nick Perry's career-high 11, and gave him five sacks in his last eight games. It was on display again Sunday, when the Green Bay Packers' pass-rush specialist sacked Eli Manning to force a punt in the second quarter of the NFC wild-card game, and it could be critical again this week in the divisional round against the Dallas Cowboys. That it's necessary to say Peppers' age whenever he's referenced speaks to the surprise that most have when they discuss his performance this season, especially of late. His full name is Julius Frazier Peppers, but the way people talk about the 15-year NFL veteran, you'd think it's actually "36-year-old Julius Peppers."

Indeed, these later kaleidoscopic cat patterns were often constructed around a clear grid system, revealing them as careful compositions rather than the product of impulsiveness coming from someone who is gradually losing his perceptive skills.Īdditionally, some of Wain’s later work produced at Napsbury Hospital was figurative and proves that he continued to be an accomplished and coherent artist whilst in a mental health care setting. Growing up, Wain was surrounded by patterns and textiles as his father was a traveling textile salesman, his maternal grandmother a tapestry designer and his mother designed patterns for Turkish-style carpets and ecclesiastical fabrics. ![]() It is also highly possible that his experimentation in style was inspired by the family’s background in textile design. These theories are still used in psychiatric literature to help illustrate schizophrenia but as Wain rarely dated his work, it is now believed to be extremely difficult to demonstrate that the apparent shift in his artistic practice coincided with a decline of his mental state. Maclay believed the paintings fitted the contemporary understanding of psychotic deterioration: as Wain’s mental health declined, so he became less able to represent cats coherently. There is still some conjecture around when these remarkable pictures were produced, but in the late 1930’s, psychiatrist Dr Walter Maclay became fascinated with them after finding a cache of them in a junk shop in Notting Hill. The cats also seemingly benefited from this new interest and among his most famous – or perhaps voguish – works today are his kaleidoscopic cat pictures. ![]() While at Napsbury Wain also began to produce many of his plant and flower drawings. He even moved beyond the world of anthropomorphic cats and other animals to produce a series of fantastical landscapes featuring animals, but their presence is more suggestive, as though in embroidery. c.1930Īt Bethlem and Napsbury, the art materials available to him were different and Wain was freed from commercial constraints and became increasingly interested in pattern and colour. Long considered eccentric by many, as Wain aged his mental health deteriorated and from 1910 he began to decline, although it has been suggested that his eccentricity masked this from his friends and family. Wain is sometimes credited as popularizing the cat as a pet in the Victorian and Edwardian England. In 1898 he even became President of the National Cat Club and also designed the Club’s logo (featuring in the medal displayed in the exhibition), which is still used today. He wrote widely on his cat theories – including his belief that they gave off electricity, were magnetic, and hated orange peel. As a result, many of his pictures were widely used in merchandising, adding to his popularity but not to his own wealth via royalties.Īs his cat drawings grew in fame he became an advocate for the cat in Britain, despite knowing little about them. Despite Wain’s popularity as an illustrator, he wasn’t a successful businessman, and often produced drawings without retaining their copyright. |
