An unwrapped stick of chewing gum Type Main ingredients, sweeteners,, flavors, colors, Chewing gum is a soft, cohesive substance designed to be chewed without being swallowed. Modern chewing gum is composed of, sweeteners, softeners/ flavors, colors, and, typically, a hard or powdered coating. Its texture is reminiscent of rubber because of the physical-chemical properties of its polymer, plasticizer, and resin components, which contribute to its elastic-plastic, sticky, chewy characteristics. Contents • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • History The cultural tradition of chewing gum seems to have developed through a convergent evolution process, as traces of this habit have arisen separately in many of the early civilizations. Each of the early precursors to chewing gum were derived from natural growths local to the region and were chewed purely out the instinctual desire to masticate. Early chewers did not necessarily desire to derive nutritional benefits from their chewable substances, but at times sought taste stimuli and teeth cleaning or breath-freshening capabilities.

'I said, 'I'm not really sure this is going to work, the body armor industry is a billion-plus-dollar industry,' he noted. Weir's idea was to combine anti-ballistic fabric with what's known as a shear thickening fluid to create a less heavy material to use in body armor. She demonstrated the principle to Burke by combining water and cornstarch in a container and asking the professor to jam his finger into the paste-like goo. 'I jam my finger right into this bowl, and I almost broke my finger! Hayley's laughing because I've got this finger that I'm shaking and I'm saying, 'You know, that's pretty impressive stuff.' ' Convinced, Ryan worked with Weir for several months in a small lab at the Air Force Adacemy in Colorado Springs. They were helped and advised by Dr. Jeff Owens, Senior Research Chemist at the Air Force Civil Engineer Center at Tyndall Air Force Base in Florida. They tried combining several different ingredients to come up with the exact formula for the shear thickening fluid, and the correct way to layer it with ballistic fibers. 'The pieces are not new,' Weir explains, 'everything that we've used in there has been researched (before) in some capacity for ballistics protection.' They tested their combinations on the firing range, failing time and again, until one day their quarter-inch thick design repeatedly stopped a round fired from a 9mm handgun. Weir and Ryan's excitement was tempered by the range safety officer who pulled his.44 Magnum and told them bluntly, 'This will fail.' Ryan says, 'We loaded it in and it stopped it. And it stopped it a second time, and then a third time.' They realized they had hit on something special, that could potentially lighten the average 26-pound body armor kit worn by servicemen in the field by as much as two thirds. 'This is something that our competition doesn't have right now,' Weir explained. 'And with this advantage our soldiers, if they wear this body armor, will be able to move faster, run farther, jump higher.' Body armor for the military and first responders may not be the only thing that can be improved by the new fabric. It could possibly be used to reduce or replace the thick metal plates that protect military aircraft, tanks and other vehicles. 'And there's some significant gravity and weight behind that,' Ryan said. 'And what it could mean for people like my friends who are still active duty in the military, that are going downrange, serving overseas.' A patent for the as yet unnamed design is pending, and if money is ultimately made, the Air Force will share the profits with Weir, Ryan and Owens. 'It doesn't feel like it's that great of an achievement,' Weir muses, 'just because it's been something that we've enjoyed doing.' The Air Force believes it is definitely a great achievement. They are providing the newly graduated 2d Lt Weir with a full-ride scholarship to Clemson University, where she will earn her Master of Materials Science and Engineering, before returning to the Air Force to continue her work. ![]() ![]() ![]() Has revealed 2017's top ten viral videos, including 's 'carpool karaoke' and a seven-minute montage of amazing ping pong 'trick shots'.

By William Bibbiani Jeffrey Dahmer was, by any rational estimation, one of the most horrifying human beings of the 20th century. By the age of 31 he had murdered at least 17 men and boys, and then collected, eaten or did other unspeakable things to their dead bodies. So it’s a little hard to imagine any filmmaker eliciting too much sympathy for Jeffrey Dahmer, and to his credit, writer/director Marc Meyers doesn’t seem to have made that his goal. His new film,, offers an illuminating look into the life of a burgeoning serial killer in the years just before he committed his first murder. And he doesn’t try to sell you on the idea that Dahmer was just a misunderstood victim of his own compulsions. Instead, My Friend Dahmer brings specificity to the idea we all have of Jeffrey Dahmer. It paints a picture of a young man with all the signs of serious psychological problems - including but not limited to the torture of small animals - but against a backdrop of typical high school lameness. Stupid pranks, casual bullying, unremarkable dances, bickering parents, these are all incidents and moments that many teenagers can relate to, it’s just that Dahmer dealt with them differently than most, and nobody seemed to notice or care. My Friend Dahmer is adapted from a graphic novel by John “Derf” Backderf, who actually knew Jeffrey Dahmer in high school, and the film isn’t eager to let Backderf off the hook. As played by Alex Wolff, the young cartoonist is a lifeline for Dahmer, a connection to a seemingly normal existence, filled with supportive friends and the attention of his classmates. Together they embark on mean-spirited perfor-mance art and - in a surreal but very true anecdote - a trip to meet Vice-President Walter Mondale, a moment Dahmer himself connived into existence. But these friendships are fleeting, and gradually Dahmer’s off-putting behavior, emotional neediness and eagerness to see what the living things around him looked like on the inside push friends like Backderf away. ![]() ![]() Nov 16, 2017.

BARNETT: Some of that is captured in Backderf's 2012 graphic novel, 'My Friend Dahmer,' and in the new film. Sep 18, 2017 See Ross Lynch as a real-life serial killer on cover of My Friend Dahmer reissue. 'My Friend Dahmer' rewinds to the cannibalistic serial killer's awkward teenage years – and leaves viewers on the outside looking in. Apr 27, 2017. Ross Lynch plays Jeffrey Dahmer in his senior year of high school in a drama that's authentic enough to get under your skin. Marc Meyers’ film never goes so far as to directly blame Backderf for Dahmer’s horrifying actions later on, but it does seem to acknowledge that all the people around Dahmer failed in one way or another. They failed to pay attention, and they failed to get help even if they did. At the center of it all is a truly haunting performance by Ross Lynch as Jeffrey Dahmer, who almost always looks like he’s posing for a very uninteresting photograph. But we know there’s more to Jeffrey Dahmer than that, and Lynch exposes the young serial killer’s neediness, violence and isolation in memorably sudden bursts, and in languid, thoughtful scenes of disturbed introspection. He can turn on the charm when he needs to, when he has an audience, but as the film progresses we see a distinct change in what he wants from that audience, and it’s truly horrifying. My Friend Dahmer isn’t a funny movie, though it sometimes has a droll wit. It’s also not a conventionally scary movie, because it’s not about Jeffrey Dahmer’s actual murder spree. ![]() A forceful Diane Kruger is the main asset in this unfortunately-timed drama about a woman who loses her husband and her six-year-old son to a terrorist attack. Divided into three chapters, the film explores the events immediately before and after the run up to the bombing; the court case and, finally, Katja’s (Kruger) quest for retribution. Doggedly conventional in its approach, the film walks an uneasy line between unflinching honesty and crass emotional exploitation, before tipping into the latter in a questionable final act. The story is riddled with questionable plot devices A meaningless English title (the original German title, Aus Dem Nichts, literally translates as Out Of Nowhere) is just one of the issues that the film will have to overcome in order to connect with an audience. The most significant is whether word of mouth and critical support will be sufficient to coax punters past the wrenchingly bleak subject matter. Kruger’s performance, although not wholly consistent, is of the awards-friendly, bared nerve endings variety. High profile prizes are not out of the question, for Kruger at least, and would provide useful marketing leverage. May 26, 2017. The film's German title translates to “out of nothingness,” which feels more apt than the English “In the Fade.” Film Review: 'In the Fade'. Reviewed at Cannes Film Festival (competing), May 26, 2017. Running time: 95 MIN. (Original title: “Aus dem nichts”). Production: (Germany-France) A Warner Bros. Fatih Akin's “In the Fade” Is More Triumph Than Disaster. There's more going on beneath the surface in the Turkish director's latest. By Bilge Ebiri. May 26, 2017. Diane Kruger Cannes Film Festival. The last shot of Turkish-German director Fatih Akin's In the Fade might be its most important — a key to unlocking the film. ![]() ![]() A pre-titles sequence, shot on emetic, erratic camcorder, shows Katja marrying Nuri (Numan Acar). That he is in prison and their wedding guests are uniformed guards does nothing to dampen the joy of the occasion. The first chapter of the film, titled ‘The Family’ sketches a marriage which remains happy, now that Nuri is out of prison and the couple have a six-year-old son. But then a nail bomb attack robs Katja of everything she cherishes. And the rain starts to pour, soaking the Hamburg backdrop with metaphoric meteorology. This first section is the strongest of the three. The casually scattered mess of family life suddenly becomes loaded with an unbearable weight of tragedy. Katja’s Turkish in-laws and her hatchet-faced mother eye each other with thinly veiled animosity. And in response to her request to see the bodies of her loved ones, the policeman cautions, “They are no longer people, only body parts.” Even so, the story is riddled with questionable plot devices, not least the decision to have Katja score drugs from her attorney and do a load of coke at a moment of unimaginable stress. The striking monochrome colour palette, accented with mournful blues, is carried forward into the second section, titled ‘Justice”. A courtroom sequence in which the suspects, a husband and wife, are tried, this mid sections starts well, but crumbles during questioning. It’s here also that Kruger’s otherwise impressive performance wavers. Some of her reaction shots are second only to the extravagantly evil defence attorney for overblown emphasis. This is heightened by several split focus shots which place Katja in the extreme foreground with her lawyer and the rest of the court behind. A scene in a bar in which Katja speculates about what her husband would have done if it had been her killed instead sets the scene for the final chapter, ‘The Sea’, in which the relocates to Greece as Katja embarks on a far-fetched quest for revenge. ![]() What Our Client's Are Saying Justin Kitchenman of Fadeup Design Group was great to work with on our new production design.
