Tron

Tron is the first film which uses computer animation in 1982. In December 2010, it is adapted again. You could see the two trailers as following. The plots are the same. However, the shooting skill is thorough change. Pass through 28 years, we can be inspired from this film. Not only this movie but also our world has changed. In the trailers, I found out that the car race scene is so funny. Old version just uses some simple light lines to display it. The new version uses the real virtual to increase its effect. Although the old version makes me feel funny, from it, I still could comprehend what the director would like to show to the audiences. Furthermore, it is the first time to use this technique. Perhaps this reason, it would make me feel more touched. Actually, the plot is very simple. If you are interested in the story, I do not think it is a good choice. Nevertheless, if you are excited about its sensational special effect, do not miss this fantastic film. It uses over three hundred million to shoot this film. The budget even exceeds Avator’s. It will not make you disappointed. Are you ready to Tron?

Armageddon

I read an article of news about Armageddon in 2012. The news shows several causes which bring about deadly devastation. From the news, I believe that there are three main causes which probably happen. World War III-when people pass through a period of peace, they could fight for some ridiculous reason in past history. Recently, North and South Korea have some conflict. It is a significant situation which war could break out. Terrorist Attack-Terrorists have no love for this world. If they are out of the control and get some weapons of mass destruction, they will do some crazy things which they even cannot restrain. The last one is that bees become extinct and environmental problem-I think these two reasons need to be discussed together. Because of environmental change, it could influence animals’ living style. It must contain bees’ lives. Actually, bees’ extinction is not the first time that people mention. The evidence extremely proves that the amount of bee dramatically plummet during this time. Perhaps I take notice of other creatures in this world. It is really horrible.

Charles Dickens

Scrooged is a significant movie to me because its story is so fantastic. It is adapted from a famous story – A Christmas Carol. The story describes a cynical and conceited TV programming executive. He never knows how to concern for others. Later, three ghosts of Christmas bring him go to the past, now and future. After coming back, he changes his personality and treats others well. As of yesterday, I only knew that it is modern version of A Christmas Carol which is written by Charles Dickens who is the well-known author of Oliver Twist. It makes me take an interest in Christmas. Christ stands for Jesus. Furthermore, mas stems from mass. It means that people pray to God. Charles Decks lives in a poor family. His father treats friends very well. However, his father is caught into jail due to bankruptcy. It influences Decks’ personality. Almost his works tell about poverty. Also, Decks’ stories really stand the test of time. Until today, his works still affect a lot of novelists.

Bard

Recently, I read an article about herbivore men. I found out that there are some characteristics which I own. It mentions that herbivore men do not like to involve into a love relationship with women. They like to live with their parents as long as they can. It also represents they do not like to organize a family. They do not dedicate to chase a girl. However, it does not mean that they are gay. They only care about their appearance and clothing. After reading this article, I check my personalities to compare to herbivore men. I like staying at home and accompanying with my parents. The different point is that I like to make my parents laugh instead of relying on them. Trying to use various ways and my imagination to amuse my parents is my interest because it makes me feel a sense of achievement. Through what I do, I can more feel my existence. Furthermore, from this article, I learnt a new word called “masculinity”. I am not sure whether I have this personality or not. Nevertheless, I am more concerned about if a man owns chivalry or not. I think that as a man has to treat woman decently, softly, and gently. This thought makes me be an elegant man. Actually, in my mind, there is a bard living there. The girl who I like will see the side of me.

Toy Globetrotter

http://www.toytraveling.com/

On this website people can let their toys to become globetrotter. The charge ranges from basic at around US$128 to high-end at nearly US$200. After the traveling, people’s toys safely come back to their home and they accompany their masters on flipping through the photographs which taken in many famous landmarks. Actually, I have done the same thing before. I cycled Taiwan with my wooded owl. At many scenic spots I stopped ridding and took pictures for it. It is really an interesting and fun experience. My owl and I took in the pretty views. Right now he is sitting on my bookshelf. When I feel frustrated, it insidiously encourages me.

Divorce Ceremonies

A divorce ceremony is new way to help couple end a relationship. A man created it in Japan. In his opinion, he considers that people get married to celebrate, so people are supposed to celebrate to end an unhappy marriage. It is like the wedding ceremony. Couples need to invite their relatives and friends to join it. Furthermore, they would use a hammer which a frog’s head is decorated on it to destroy their wedding rings. This hammer is called gavel. It means a new change in Japanese culture. After smashing the rings, couple has a new fresh start. However, during this special ceremony, people still share their stories about how they meet each other, how they fall in love and how they get married. Sometimes it could make couples think their love again. Later, they could decide not to get divorce. For me, I see marriage to be a sacred belief. After people get married, it means you exchange not only the rings but also people’s soul. It is not too easy to smash a marriage. People need to focus their thoughts on their communication and together find out the measure to solve any problem in the marriage. A marriage symbolizes that you give the soul to other one to care, protect and rely on. It is not merely a game.

Superbug

It is reported that there is a new gene of superbugs (new bacteria-NDM-1) which was found in India. Because it can resist various antibiotic, researchers and medical people cannot find out the exact therapy to cure those people who suffer from it. Furthermore, a crisis is worried by some experts, for some Americans and European travel to these area where this new bacteria was found out. Meanwhile, travelers probably bring it back to their countries. It is lurking. On the other hand, WHO has already noticed its seriousness. It appeal to each country for caring four parts which include surveillance, rational antibiotic use, legislation to stop the sale of antibiotics without prescription and rigorous infection prevention measures. First, surveillance, each country need to keep watching any symptom which resembles to this new bacteria in order to prevent it from spreading. If finding out any case and syndrome is like it, authorities have to quarantine patients immediately. Second, because this new bacteria can trigger some symptoms which doctors could mistake in diagnosis and offer erroneous antibiotic drugs, these could help this new bacteria to alter. When doctors find out the reason, it is too late. Third, as same as the way of use, if people who suffer from it just directly go to buy the medicines, it causes the same situation. Last but not the least, government need to inform people of the existence of this new superbug and remind people of doing some prevention measures, such as hand-washing, personal hygiene and so on.
