Kung Fu Panda 2 is an forthcoming animation movie and the sequel for the 2008 movie, Kung Fu Panda. It is planned to be in 3-D and is heading to get directed by Jennifer Yuh Nelson, along using the majority from the principal cast returning, together with several fresh characters. The film is planned to be released on May 26, 2011 and was at initial intended to become called Kung Fu Panda 2: Pandamonium. Kung Fu Panda 2 The Kaboom of Doom is Jennifer Yuh Nelson's 1st main movie as director, but she's absolutely no newbie. Her years experience of creating animations guarantees the sequel's quality, besides she was the head of story around the 1st Kung Fu Panda movie.

Po (Jack Black) is currently living his dream after becoming The Dragon Warrior, guarding the Valley of Peace collectively with his pals and fellow kung fu masters, The Furious Five - Tigress (Jennifer aniston), Crane (David Cross), Mantis (Seth Rogen), Viper (Lucy Liu) and Monkey (Jackie Chan). But Po's new lifestyle is endangered by the creation of a formidable villain, that plans try using a mysterious, unstoppable weapon to crush China as well as Kung Fu. It's around Po and also the Furious Five to search throughout China additional danger and look after it. But precisely how could Po get rid of a weapon that may possibly prevent kung fu? He needs to search his past and reveal the strategies of his mysterious origins; only after that is he heading to have the ability to discover the power which he needs to become successful.

Jack Black will obviously give once a lot more his voice to Po the panda, as well because the fellow members with the voice cast (Dustin Hoffman, Angelina jolie, Jackie Chan, Seth Rogen, Lucy Liu, and David Cross) most likely will reprise their roles too. Furthermore Gary Oldman will be lending his voice to Kung Fu Panda: The Kaboom of Doom, the sequel set for launch next summer. Oldman will be voicing "a figure called Peacock, who assists Po find the bandits but is actually more than he looks."

The release date of Kung Fu Panda 2: Kaboom of Doom has been arranged for May 27, 2011. The movie had been formerly arranged for a June 3, 2011 release but has now been moved to May 27 where it currently stands alone, one week following the launch of Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, one day later than the release of The Hangover 2 and just one week prior to Fox's release of X-Men: First Class.

It is also known that Oscar-winning movie writer Charlie Kaufman (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind) has recently completed work on the script to Dreamwork's forthcoming martial arts follow up Kung Fu Panda: The Kaboom of Doom. Neither the concept for nor the bulk of the Kung Fu Panda sequel's script was created by Kaufman - rather, his contribution amounted to 2 weeks of shine work. It will certainly be intriguing to see if the completed product echos his earlier work in any significant style all the same.

Pleased that a lot of of our pals are going to get returning for that film Kung Fu Panda 2 Motion picture! Let us hope we will have as many jokes as within the 1st one, along with the comparable top quality of animation at least!

Music Helps Raise IQ

I am in love with music. In fact, my Facebook status is all about music or movie soundtracks. I always rely on music in expressing how I feel in a particular situation every single day.

Growing up, music has helped me cope with the many dramas I encountered. The first love, the first broken heart, the loss of my father, and the happy times with friends and family. Even at work, I relax myself from all the stress by listening to the music of Enya. I played the guitar but never really formally took lessons. I just learned how to play so I can socialize with each circle of friends I got to meet.
Recently I discovered that music is actually helpful in the development of our IQ and mental development. Researches on how music affects the brain and mental development are available in musicology and music advocacy sites. It has been observed through the use of advanced technology such as the PET scans and MRI imaging that new neural pathways are created when an individual is engaged in a musical activity. Activities referred includes but not limited to composing musical pieces and playing musical instruments. It has been observed that ALL sides of our brain literally lights up in the monitors as opposed to only a part of the brain lights up when engaged in any other activity. Ive heard of parents making their babies listen to classical music even when theyre still in the womb so that they will grow smart but it was only recently was I informed of the science behind it and the studies that back the claim. Indeed passively listening to music helps. But measurable mental development is mostly attributed to composing and playing musical instruments.
There are, however, many other benefits that can be derived from music. Socially, music is an ageless hobby creating interaction with great people. It can be observed that creativity and striving for excellence is developed and embraced among musical groups. Discipline and organization are also honed. These are traits that prove valuable for us in later life. Think about having children develop these traits early in life, wouldnt it be neat? Sharon Burch, a music teacher and creator of Freddie the Frog book series thought it would be a great idea to get our children interested in music to reap these benefits and help them raise their IQ. She wrote fanciful books with the mission of breaking down big abstract concepts into developmentally appropriate pieces for kids. And she made these books interesting by introducing fascinating characters and places so children can easily retain the lessons in memory.
I wish we had the same resources before when I was younger but then these helpful books are meant for the next generation and my future children. Help raise your kids IQ by engaging them in activities related to music as early as preschool so we can have a future filled with creative, vibrant, and smarter citizens.

X-Files Stuff in the News!

I have always loved science fiction. I always have and always will. However, I do possess, most of the time, a solid enough grip on reality to let go of my sci-fi love when I put the book down or leave the movie theater.

I mean, I would love for half the stuff I see in sci-fi to be true right now. You know what I am talking about, don't you? I would love to be able to zoom through "Space the Final Frontier" in the comforts of the Starship Enterprise sipping margaritas with Jean-Luc Picard while watching the stars fly by. Maybe that babe, Counselor Troi, could join us.

Yes, I can tell the difference between truth and reality (sort of). It's fun to pretend but I know when the pretense stopsor do I?

Another kind of sci-fi on the caliber of the "X-files" has been going on lately and I want to know just what in the name of Agent Mulder is going on?

I wrote a week or two ago about the exploding toads of Germany.

"I cannot get out of my mind the exploding toad phenomenon reported in the Altona district of Hamburg, Germany. This was taking place at the end of April 2005, causing a ghoulish and macabre mess that confused the hell out of scientists. They had taken to calling the district the "pond of death".

They think they may have solved this little grotesqueness with the explanation of some peckish toad-liver-stealing crows. I don't buy that at all.

On May 18th, a report appeared in the Associated Press about a scene right out of Hitchcock's "The Birds" occurred in Houston.

Apparently, some rather miffed Grackles (a large and loud crow-like bird) have gotten it into their little pea-sized birdbrains to attack the good citizens of Houston. These attacks have become so vicious that people are being injured.

"The grackles zeroed in on a lawyer who shooed a bird away before he tripped and injured his face, Jue said. The lawyer was treated for several cuts." [1] Can you believe this?

One woman was knocked to the ground, according to the article, and had to be helped up by two men who were also attacked. All three had to flee into a nearby building to escape the Grackle attack.

So what set off this flock of Grackles? And note that they are large and loud Crow-like birds. Is there a connection between the toad-murdering crows of Germany and this Houston event? Don't you want to know?

Then, lo and behold, Reuters' news service reported that on May 19, a sleepy little Russian village's lake simply DISAPPEARED overnight! Imagine that! You go to bed telling the wife that you will be up before the crack of dawn to go "Wet a Hook". You get up, eat a little something, grab the gear, and walk down to the lake, only to find that it is gone--Poof! [2]

I assure you I am not making any of this up. An entire lake was there when the Russians went to bed and the next morning it was gone.

Get this: The article is entitled, "Lake Disappears, baffling villagers". They find it, what, a little baffling? I wonder if TERRORIZED would have been a more appropriate word? Baffled just doesn't cut it. I am thinking that an overnight disappearance of an entire lake would elicit a little stronger reaction like,

" ".

This roughly translates to,

"We are hauling our butts out of here."

Just what the devil is going on here? Exploding toads in Germany (the explanation was NOT conclusive), vicious people-attacking CROW-like birds in Houston (authorities had to close down that section of the street), then the overnight disappearance of an entire lake.

Just where are Agents Fox Mulder and Dana Skully when you need them?

How Do You Like Your Eggs?

Remember the movie Runaway Bride with Julia Roberts and Richard Gere? Theres a breakfast scene where Richard Gereasks Julia Roberts what kind of eggs she likes.Her response is Whatever youre having. She had no clue how she liked her eggsbecause she always ate them however the man she was with at the time atethem. He said No, what kind of eggs do you like? And they proceeded to try all the differentways one could eat eggs, until she decided for herself that she preferred eggsbenedict.

And they proceeded to try all the differentways one could eat eggs, until she decided for herself that she preferred eggsbenedict.

Unfortunately, I find this a common problemamong women. Too often we aim to pleaseand over-accommodate our partner in ways we wouldnt do once the honeymoonphase of the relationship is over. Theproblem from his perspective is it appears over time that weve changed. Well insist that we havent, but we forgotwho we were pretending to be in the beginning because we cant keep the charadegoing forever.

I know, because I did it for all of myrelationships until I figured out how to be authentic in a relationship. I insisted that I wasnt going to settle forless than I deserved again, and in doing so, I discovered a whole lot of thingsabout myself during that self-growth period.

When I determined who the real Stacy was,what she liked and didnt like, I realized that I didnt need to pretendanymore. My man would like the real meor I would move on. If I couldnt besilly, goofy, snort when I laugh, fart in bed, or tell racy jokes with the manI was with, then he wasnt my guy.

I committed to being 100% my own authenticself in my next relationship and I have been.As a result, I have never been happier.Mario tells me at least a dozen times a week, Youre weird - and I loveyou for it. He doesnt always say thoseexact words, most times he just says Youre weird, but hell follow it upwith a hug or a kiss or a playful fist bump to my shoulder, or some otherendearing gesture. He always says itwith affection and I know Im loved.

I asked him this morning what its likefrom the guys perspective to be in a relationship with a woman and witnessthis change. He said, The truth comesout eventually, and then theres a reduced feeling of trust. When there isnt trust in a relationshipwhats left? It usually begins to fadeafter that. Sometimes you stay togetherjust because its easier than leaving, but who wants to be in a relationshipwith someone you dont trust?

He also mentioned that many of his friendshave this belief that women change after marriage, which is why so many men arereticent to get married. Based on ourbehavior, even if we think its for an admirable reason because we care aboutour partner and we want to please them its really because we want to pleaseourselves by receiving approval.

Your desire to please stems from ultimatelywanting approval from your parents. Thisis evidenced by the fact that we tend to date people who are a reflection ofour primary unhealed parental relationship.In order to be fully authentic in your partnership with your mate,youll want to heal as much of that relationship with your Mom or Dad aspossible. A book that helped me verymuch that you can find on the Personal Growth & Healing page of my websiteis Making Peace with Your Parents byHarold Bloomfield, MD. There areexcellent therapeutic exercises in there that I know will help you.

Next, youll want to have a period ofself-reflection, similar to Julia Roberts, and ask yourself; What do I reallyenjoy doing? What kinds of foods do Ilike to eat? What shows do I want to watchand what books or magazines do I prefer to read? Try for a week to only do things that youwant to do. Practice saying No tothings you dont want to do.

Pay attention to how you behave with yourbest friends and reveal some of those elements with your next few dates. If he runs for the hills because you took toobig a bite of spaghetti and you have a strand hanging from your mouth that youslurp up and giggle like a five year old after, then hes a man who is unableto appreciate the small joys in life of having fun acting child-like. (Theres a difference between childish andchild-like but thats a topic for another day.)

Figuring out what makes you happy will makeyou happier in your relationship and thus allow you to help make your manhappier. Trust me - your man doesntwant to have to figure you out. He wantsyou to show up as you are, so he has the freedom to show up as his authenticself too.

Guys arent good at pretending, and if theyare, I would run the other way. A guywho seems too good to be true could have had too much practice at deceiving hispartners. (See how the trust thing goes both ways?) Also, if he feels he cant measure up to you,he wont stay very long because it will feel emasculating to him.

Mario loves that I act bizarrely at timesbecause he doesnt have to figure me out, he knows what comes out of my mouthis the truth, he has the freedom to be himself too, and as a result, we haveunconditional love and trust in our relationship.

I know that you want those same things, soheres the summary of the ways that you can practice being more authentic andattract true love with your dependable, original guy:

1. Heal your relationshipwith your parents so you dont always need others approval.
2. Find out what you truly enjoy in life.
3. Say NO to things you dont enjoy doing.

4.Find opportunities to act quirky with the opposite sex.

Commit to act authentically so you increasethe level of trust you have in your relationships. Be true to yourself, bereal, and youll soon be in love. Ipromise.

What Made Ben-Hur An Amazing Achievement

The academy award winning 1959 movie Ben Hur is a stunning cinematic look at the life of Judah Ben-Hur during the last days of Jesus Christ's life. The greatness of this movie was due to a combination of story, direction, and acting abilities.

With a legendary director like William Wyler, a 15 million dollar budget, full production support from MGM and an acting sensation such as Charleton Heston, its easy to see why 1959s Ben-Hur galloped out of the Academy Awards with 11 Oscars. Over the course of the nine month production, 300 man-made sets, thousands of costumed extras and one epic chariot race meshed together under the direction of Wyler to create a stunning, historically accurate portrayal of the life of the Jewish merchant prince, Judah Ben-Hur during the last moments of Christs life.

Wheres the emperor? is the first question that a history buff may ask themselves while watching this film. Many Hollywood Roman epics feature the emperor as a main character in the film. They exploit stories that historian and gossip hound, Suetonius, crafted about the lavish, hedonistic and often ridiculous tendencies of power hungry, sex-crazed violent emperors. The emperor is not shown in this movie and I think it is because he would take away from the story, after all, Ben-Hur is supposed to be about the life of Christ and the absurd antics of a cocky demigod emperor would only distract from the story and not allow it to focus on central characters such as Judah Ben-Hur and his faceless friend, Jesus Christ.

Jesus face is never shown in this film and after theorizing why this could be, I read that his face was deliberately shielded at the request of the author of the novel from which the movie was based. By only showing the back of Jesus head, Wyler managed to capture the power and influence of Christ by documenting the visceral reactions that wash over Hestons face when he interacts with Christ. It makes Jesus more of a respected every-man type character that still has the power to cleanse the lingering hate that Hur kept in his heart. It was a bold but effective stylistic choice.

The sets in Ben-Hur allow the audience to image a rich, hulking Rome paved with dirt and speckled with varying cultural venues from busy market places to private royal bed-quarters. All of the costumes were manicured and detailed to appropriate time-period accuracy but they still flossed a Golden Age of Hollywood-esque varnish that made them appear cleaner and shinier than they would actually be if worn by Romans in the filthy city.

They production crew used many props that seemed like they took a long time to acquire or create for very short sequences-a true sign of a large budget. An example of the aforementioned props are the golden nose diving dolphins lap counters during the chariot race, the golden serpentine horns blown at Ben-Hurs parade to power and the large, ostentatious finger rings worn by the Christ-committed merchant, Balthasar. Such accessories are true testimonies to attention to historical detail found in this film.

The exciting and quite climatic chariot race in Ben-Hur was filmed in basically a full sized Circus Maximus that was split open to allow the crew to move freely while filming the sequence. The entire scene took three weeks to film and everything about it from the glistening leather armor to the cracking of Messalas whip to the ornately decorated chariots leap alive off the screen and command the viewer to come enjoy the entertainment in Rome. Historically accurate as it may be, it is easy to imagine what an event like that could have actually looked like back then and it is evident that the production designers and researches used factual text to conjure this recreation with splendor.

The most impressive and historically accurate scene in the film is the infamous naval battle. The ships were constructed perfectly to match the period of Rome in which they were sailed. When the ships ram each other and the soldiers board the opposing deck, thats when the productions credibility skyrockets because they knew how actual naval battles played out during that time. The fire pits used to light the ballistas massive arrows and the metal pointed front of the battle ship tempered to ram at full speed all came together to portray a very historically accurate sea battle that would be fought in ancient Rome.

The tremendous budget, appropriate acting and dead-on historical details really raised Ben-Hur from a typical sword and sandal picture to a movie held to legendary status even by current standards. Colorful costumes and monolithic sets allowed director, William Wyler to shape the movie into a Roman epic that held such a sense of place and time due to its historical accuracy.

Why The Dark Knight Sucks - Not Another Movie Review

You're probably thinking "Oh no! Not another The Dark Knight review!" Trust me, this isn't one. This movie has already been reviewed ad nauseum and for the purpose of this article it is entirely irrelevant whether I personally liked it or not. Besides, anyone and their grandma calls themselves a critic nowadays so Im not joining the ranks on this sole principle.

Even if you should have just returned from 40 days of fasting in the middle of desert you would have heard of the most commercially successful movie ever filmed.The Dark Knight broke box office records and set new highs in the world of commercial filmography. Everyone seems to have gone to see The Dark Knight, everyone seems to have written their "review" over at IMDB and everyone seems to have given it 10 out of 10 stars rating. It almost seemed as though the crowds were hypnotized and any rating other than 10 was not even an option.

I've been trying hard to think of anything more irritating than seemingly blindfolded fanboys who religiously repeat their "the best movie of the year" or "the best of all time" chants every time they get a chance and I couldn't. This ludicrous overhyping and overrating of a single picture created a force that resulted in a counterforce. Whether you call it the cause and effect phenomenon, or Newton's third law of motion, the outcome is clear. For many people The Dark Knight Sucks. The movie is good - it's not great, but it's not a complete failure either.

If you enter "The Dark Knight Sucks" into Google search engine, you will get over 3 million results. Why would so many people react with utter underrating of a movie thats actually pretty decent? Your answer is above. One extreme calls for another. If one extremist labels it "the best movie ever", the other one responds with "The Dark Knight Sucks".

I can imagine some of those people who gave The Dark Knight 1 or 2 star out of 10 on IMDB, would have otherwise given it 6 or 7 stars, because even if they particularly didn't like it, they didn't really think it was that bad. But to balance out the madness started by the overhyping crowd, the opposing party let themselves heard by blatant underrating. Oh the irony Why make it such a big deal? It's just the movie!

Learn Types of Swords for Collection

There are various movie sword designs being reproduced as replicas for movie fans and sword enthusiasts to collect. However many fans and new collectors are not aware of the sword type they purchased or planning to add to their collection. Without this knowledge they may purchase the wrong sword, use it in the wrong manner and risk damaging the collection or even injuring themselves. This article is written for the audience to learn the types of swords available in the market and with this information make the right purchase for their collection.

Having a movie sword replica collection can be the most satisfying hobby for many. If you are planning to start one or just considering whether it is the right hobby for you, this article is written to help you take that first step - acquiring information specifically what types of swords you should collect. If you search the net, you will find countless sword designs with detailed product specification. With all these options, it can be daunting at first to just figuring out which sword is suitable for you. So to make things simple, you need to know what is the purpose of the sword that you desire. The 3 categories of sword types available in the market are grouped based on that purpose.

Let's start with the first sword type - the decorative sword which is also frequently referred to as display sword. The name decorative sword clearly states its purpose making your fireplace, study or games room look fabulous. Decorative swords are generally made from but not limited to stainless steel making them more corrosive-resistant than common carbon steel. Even though meant for display purposes, they do come in both sharpened and unsharpened blades.

Bear in mind that decorative swords are not to be used in sword duels or weekend cutting parties. If you still insist, have a paramedic team on standby. Most decorative swords (99.99%) will break under abusive forces. Expect chipped edges and perhaps flying blade pieces, the latter possibly land you an involuntary manslaughter charge.

The second type of sword is the practice sword used for beginner and intermediate sword training exercises. The practice sword helps students to learn basic sword techniques (offence and defence), sword handling and balanced footwork. Practice swords can be made from a variety of materials mainly wood, plastic, latex, foam, aluminium and even steel. They do not have sharp edges for safety reasons which is perfect for sword duel exercises where students apply the skills they learned to the test.

You probably heard of sword cutting exercise in advanced training where actual swords with razor-sharp edges are used to cut bamboo, plastic containers and roll-bundled newspaper. Skilled and experienced professionals use functional sword for this purpose which is described in the next section.

The final type is the functional sword, the real thing - designed and forged to withstand the brute forces exerted from cutting, stabbing and metal-to-metal clobbering. A fully-functional sword is one magnificent piece of engineering and sometimes termed battle-ready cause it really is. The blade and tang is made as a single piece from high carbon steel which have gone through a proper heat treatment. In case you are wondering, the tang is the part of the blade that extends into the hilt. A full-tang extends all the way to the hilt end typical of many European swords. A partial-tang is more favoured in Japanese Katana.

The cross-guard, grip and pommel of a functional sword are carefully designed and made from durable materials. If you plan to have a weekend cutting party, a fully functional sword is the best piece to use. Well actually its a must. You are less likely to worry about damaging the sword, just keep your eye on where the sword is going and make sure youre gripping it firmly. If you dont have any previous training on handling a functional sword, go get one. Remember involuntary manslaughter?

Well there you have it, a quick walkthrough on the types of swords available. Before we end this article, a few practical examples should help clear any doubts and strengthen your understanding. Let's say you intend to use a movie sword replica for an upcoming cosplay event. For this a decorative sword made from wood, plastic or foam is best. Decorative sword can be manufactured identical to the design as shown in the movies.

However If you are looking for a movie sword to cut objects and work out a sweat, a functional sword is mandatory. Take note that a functional sword may not resemble exactly the design in the movies because most of the stunning designs you see on the silver screens are just that - designs. If a functional sword is forged exactly as seen, it may not behave like a true sword. The weight could be too much to wield, theres heavy resistance to swinging or the whole sword vibrates violently upon contact. Not so functional or practical anymore. There are some manufacturers who apply design enhancements to make the movie replicas as original and functional as possible.

Blonde webcam girls

Different men have different tastes as far as sexual entertainment is concerned and a popular dilemma is about webcam girls and porn movies. What do you find more arousing to watch a porn movie or blonde webcam girls in action?

The approach on this subject is subjective and this is one of the reasons why there is a difference of opinions, but we should take a look at the pros and cons of each option. Each person will still make a choice according to their own criteria, but if they analyze this they can be sure whether they should turn to live webcam girls or porn movies.

One of the first aspects of any sexual entertainment video is the level of details. A porn movie will always have a very detailed description of the sexual act, with cameras rolling in different positions so they can get a better picture. With a web cam girl you can also get a very clear picture, but the action is limited to only one camera that shoots.

As far as the action is concerned, porn movies will always have a much more detailed action available. You can have more men having sex with one or more women at the same time, changing partners and positions often. With webcam girls, the action is limited to one or just a few hot webcam girls that perform every action you consider.

The script of the action is also very important and porn movies follow mostly the same script. The only thing that changes is the performers and they might not do a very good job either. On the other hand, blonde webcam girls offer you everything you need and they do everything you ask them to, putting you in control of what goes on there.

When you watch a porn movie, you dont have the possibility to change the cast. You might go for another porn movie instead, but if you want to put two actors in the same scenery, you cannot. When it comes to brunette or blonde webcam girls, the option for the lead performer is always yours, and you have a lot of choices available.

As it was pointed out afore, the choice between porn movies and blonde webcam girls is subjective and it usually depends on what arouses a man more. But if you like being in control and you would like to tell webcam girls what to do and when to do it, then you should take the time to visit the website socalglamourgirls.com for more details.

No matter what you may be looking for in blonde webcam girls and how you might want them to perform, you will always have this option available with this website. All you have to do is browse through all of their blonde bikini models and determine which one fits your criteria best and then start your entertainment with just one click.

Great Horror Movies in High Definition from DirecTV

If you arent old enough to remember the days when you had to go to the theater to see a great horror flick, then you really did miss out on a great thing. One thing about horror flicks, is that they ...

If you arent old enough to remember the days when you had to go to the theater to see a great horror flick, then you really did miss out on a great thing. One thing about horror flicks, is that they really arent subtle and the bigger the better rule, really does apply to them.

Drive in theaters, have gone the way of the dinosaur and it is too bad, because they were a great place to see a horror flick. One thing that high definition programming from DirecTV has done, is to rescue the horror flick and bring it back to the glory that it deserves.

Horror movies are best viewed on a big screen TV, while sitting as close to it as possible. The high definition big screened TV is perfect for this, because you can sit right up next to it and the picture is perfectly clear. In the past a big screened TV, with standard definition programming on it, needed a big room to play in, because the picture was fuzzy and undefined if you sat too close to it.

A TV screen has only so many vertical lines of resolution and pixels in it and the bigger the screen is, the more spread out and far apart they are. The result on a standard definition big screened TV is not good. The high resolution TV has over twice the amount of vertical lines of resolution and pixels in it, so the picture is just fine, even from just a few feet away.

Digitized surround sound, with Dolby noise reduction feature, is another big difference that you get with DirecTV high definition programming. Great sound effects only enhance the total character of a great horror flick and the difference between standard TV audio and high definition audio effects is immense.

One thing that theaters have always had in their arsenal is a great surround sound system that reproduced sound effects that you could actually feel when you watched a movie. With high definition programming from DirecTV, you can have the same effect right in your own home.

You can listen to it right out of your TV set, or you can run it through your stereo system for maximum effect if you choose. Either way you will soon grow to appreciate the importance of top quality sound effects in a great horror flick.

Have you been down to an electronics retailer to check out the prices on high definition TV sets lately? You might be surprised to see how much they have fallen in recent years. Remember how you chocked when you saw the price tags on big plasma screened TVs when they first came out?

Well, those days are long gone and you can now get a great name brand high definition plasma screened TV for hundreds, instead of thousands of dollars. High definition TV programming isnt for everyone and you may be one of those people that are perfectly content to watch TV in standard definition and thats OK. If you are one of those people who want more out of their TV viewing time, then high definition TV programming from DirecTV might be just what you are looking for.

Organic Spas in Australia - from Dreaming to Luxury Travel

Organic spas are an integral part of modernluxury travel. The phrase conjures images of ultimate indulgence where allthat's required of you is to lie back and surrender to a level of pamperingthat was not so long ago reserved for royalty or movie stars. But the factremains that genuine organic spas are not found everywhere. While packing for aluxury travel destination, it might be worth pondering the merits of anauthentic organic spa experience.

When compiling a list of things to do on aluxury travel itinerary, a visit to an organic spa would come somewhere closeto the top and generously interspersed throughout, depending on the length ofyour travel. Well, the choices are many at most luxury travel destinations.Here's why a trip down under to Australiais worth serious consideration.

Ask anyone who has travelled to Australiaand they'll have tales to tell of the tough immigration policies that won'teven let you bring along a wad of gum from abroad. While immigration officialsare not the friendliest of folks, they most certainly do not derive anyperverse pleasure from denying you the right to bring along a pretty orchidfrom Singapore or your pet tarantula from Africa just to see the gloom flood your face. They are merely doing theirjob. And it is their job to protect the fragile ecosystem of this uniquelandmass, down under, from foreign organic matter that may disrupt or evendestroy the delicate balance.

For 50,000 years or more, the aboriginalshave inhabited this part of the world and lived in harmony with the land, thewater, the vegetation, the seasons, the wildlife, the rain, and the rock. Theyleft no footprint on any of these elements unless it was a playful hop, skip,or jump that benefited both ways. They lived off the land, on the land, and bythe land, as one with the land. They didn't have hypertension, strokes ordiabetes. What they had was clear skin and eyes that shone. They were Dreaming;the eternal truth that links the past, present, and future, and the people totheir land.

Now what would this have to do with luxurytravel, you might well ask. Having come to the sad conclusion that the fasterthe rat race the wearier the soul, people embark on luxury travel as a means ofsolace away from it all. They eagerly look around for new outlets, freshpastures, and healthier alternatives to achieve that nirvana. The good news forall is that the Dreaming has been re-discovered here in Australia.More and more people are turning to the ancient earthy wisdom of theaboriginals to figure out modern ills. What was once considered good at bestfor some novelty value has now come to be recognized for its intrinsic truth.Now isn't that the final destination of all travel?

The wisdom of the aboriginal way of life isnow increasingly adapted to main stream life, but nowhere as much as in theworld of luxury spas. The word organic that was bandied about as casually asbananas by monkeys, has now assumed its true significance. It has taken on itsauthentic avatar in the organic spas that are now standing apart from the crowdwith their understanding and adaptation of the Dreaming. Luxury travel has nowfound its newest pastureone that has fresh, natural, and least processedproducts that your skin and soul will be grateful for.

The other side of luxury travel is nowundoubtedly sustainable travel. It's time to show the door to petrol guzzlers,and institutions with monstrously big carbon shoe prints. In the world of personalcare, now is the time to bid adieu to parabens, petrochemical bi products,dimethicones, and a variety of chemicals also used by morgue technicians topreserve dead bodies. You have an alternative that is pure, natural, and nottried on some poor guinea pig in a cage. Organic spas guarantee the use of suchclean products.

Organic spas are all the rage in majorAustralian cities such as Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane which are also bigtime luxury travel destinations. A commitment to the well being of the planetand the welfare of the customers makes these ventures a strong link in thechain of sustainability. Some of these spas have extended businesses where theygrow their own raw materials. Great care is taken to preserve intact thegoodness of all materials used. Fair Trade practices are followed whereverpossible when goods are sourced from abroad. Active collaboration or advicefrom the aboriginal people is a great way of enhancing lives in more ways thanone. Organic farming of source vegetation required to create creams andemollients becomes a source of employment for aboriginal communities. In returnwe get the invaluable in terms of ancient wisdom.

Luxury travel in search of authenticrelaxation and spa treatments, where all side effects are of the benevolentkind, are made for each other concepts. 'Have money will spend' will havebetter outcomes when that money is spent responsibly. Giving back to naturemight not be on everyone's good deed for the day list. Mainly because mostpeople don't think that far, or if they do, they can't think of many ways to doit other than refusing the odd plastic shopping bag. Organic spas are where youcan give as good as you get. And down under is where it's at right now. Let'ssustain this blue marble we call home and replenish the natural glory as bestas we can.

This compression is necessary in order to reduce the movie file size which otherwise would occupy too much space and copying it or transferring it from one device to another would be a complicated step to achieve.

If you wish to watch your AVI movie in your PC and this movie was compressed with a particular codec, you will need to have the same codec installed on that PC. You will always need one same codec to compress and to decompress not only an AVI movie but any other movie n any other format as well.

There are some codecs which you can use with your AVI movie when you wish that it doesn't loose as much quality as it generally would through the compression- decompression process. TSCC is one of the codecs which would allow you to compress, transfer and decompress your movie without loosing its quality.

One of the main advantages of AVI files is the fact that they can be played in many different players while other files can only be played in specific ones. If you storage or distribute your own movie through an AVI file, it could be seen in Real Player, Camtasia Player, Media Player and QuickTime.

Another important aspect to take into account regarding AVI files is that the audio data occupies much more space than the video one. This way, it is very important that your movie's audio data is carefully compressed as well as the video data is, or otherwise it could occupy much more space than you would have thought.

If you do not know which audio codec to choose for your audio AVI file, MPEG Layer 3 is one of the most advisable ones. This codec would allow you to compress your audio file converting it into a much smaller file and without loosing much of its quality, although it will not be exactly the same than it was before being compressed. There also are other good codecs, but due to these files high size, all of them would cause your movie to loose some of its audio quality.

Prabhanjanam Telugu Movie Review and Rating

Prabhanjanam Movie Review, Prabhanjanam Telugu Movie Review, Prabhanjanam film Review, Prabhanjanam Movie Review and Ratings

Release date : April 18, 2014
AuthorRating : 1.5/5
Director : Bhaskarrao Vedrathi
Producer :Bhaskarrao Vedrathi
Music Director :RP Patnaik
Starring : Ajmal, Panchi Bora

Story: -

The story is based on the lives of three friends, Chaitanya (Ajmal) Sandhya (Aarushi) and Pranita (Panchi Bora). All three are close friends and are preparing for their future jobs.
Among them, Chaitanya is the only one that has no clarity about life, and does not expect this field to choose. One day, one of their classmates failed in IIM entrance, and suicide.
This incident turns their lives upside down, and all the friends become more sincere in life. While all this is happening, Chaitanya decided to enter politics in the name of his dads party, and becomes the leader of the youth.Once he joins his party, his life changes completely, as he is disturbed by the way the policy is being implemented in the state. He decides to take matters in hand and plans to raise public awareness about the right to vote, and how to choose a suitable government.Rest of the story is how he manages to fight through it and come out victorious.

Plus Points: -

major plus point of this film is its lead actors. Senior actors like Kota, Nasser Chalapathi Rao and Naga Babu has done extremely well in the film.Ajmal suits his character well, and the director used his physiche and body language precisely in this film. Arushi impresses in the role of hero friend.supporting character like Chandu and Panchi Bora did their part. story line of the film is quite good.

MinusPoints: -

As mentioned above, other than the line of star cast and the lead story, the film still has huge drawbacks. Even after selecting a decent story line, the director has failed to perform completely.This story had potential heavy dialogues, and many scenes that could have been higher. But the director has failed to capitalize on that and just concentrate on the business aspects of the film.The character of Nasser lack of clarity and of his speeches in the film not deep. Ajmal the character in the second half gets a bit too low and does not have a powerful dialogues or scenes.The whole film was dragged to the core. The great scenes of the film show how political parties campaign and promote their parties these days.Ajmal how the party works, and won the election and all the scenes of voter education are presented without any clarity.Logic disappears in the second half and the script has a lot of loop holes.

Technical aspects:-

the camera work in the film is a big plus. The film has a good idea, and was shot beautifully. background score of R P Patnaik is yet another great addition to the film. Although the scenes in the second half are lack luster, the music of R P raises them to a decent standard.
Dialogues are out of the box, and have absolutely no connection with the history and the editing is bad enough. As said before, the story line is quite decent, but the way it was run by the director is poor.

Verdict:-

In Prabhanjanam set is a misfit even in hot and happening times of elections. A good story line, was wasted by poor execution and unnecessary commercial elements. Even if you are interesting in political thrillers, you can skip this movie this weekend.

Was driver killed in Tesla Model S Autopilot crash watching a movie?

Joshua Brown -- the man who died in what could be the first fatal accident involving Tesla’s Autopilot feature -- may have been watching a movie in the car dvd player and the android car GPSwas working when the crash took place.

According to the Associated Press, the driver of the truck Brown fatally collided with said that Brown was watching a “Harry Potter” film while the accident took place; the movie reportedly kept playing in the android car stereo after the accident.

Sergeant Kim Montes of the Florida Highway Patrol later spoke with Reuters and confirmed that “there was a portable car DVD player in the vehicle.”

The AP also reported that Brown also had eight speeding tickets on his records; however, the most recent one was from 2011.

Brown had a long and well-documented history of Autopilot use. Two months ago, he uploaded a video of the system “saving his life.” The dash cam video shows a boom truck drive into the lane of the Tesla Model S by using gm navigation and then shows the Tesla swerve out of harm's way.

Brown himself mentions in the video description, “You can see where I took over when there's a little bit of blip in the steering. Tessy [sic] had already moved to the right to avoid the collision. I was not able to slow down even more due to the heavy traffic (cars were behind me). Once I got behind him I slowly added more room between us until he exited. I was not tail gating [sic] after the incident.”

The video of Brown dodging the boom truck is just one of many of his Tesla-related YouTube uploads.

Some might think that autopilot performed the evasive maneuver completely independently by gm navigation; that's not quite the case. In reality, the system moved subtly -- and notified Brown to pay attention and retake control of the car.

Entertainment: How home electronics has changed our recreational activities

Accessto electronics products in the home has changed the idea of what constitutesentertainment. People can choose fromlistening to radio, television, music or even watching a movie all from thehome.

Musichas always been a popular way to enjoy an evening at home. If you have only a radio, turning to aclassical station, oldies station or whatever your favorite type of music isand settling down to read, study or just dream a little has always been apopular recreational activity. Teenagershave been listening to rock and roll on the radio for years, but even beforethat, old time radio shows were welcome entertainment for the entirefamily. Fibber McGee and Molly, Amos andAndy, The Lone Ranger and Gunsmoke are just few of the radio shows thatfamilies listened to together. Therewere also live music shows from some of the famous big band performances.

Astelevision entered the entertainment mainstream, musical variety shows wereoften popular. Who could forget EdSullivan's presentation of the Beatles first performance in the U.S. Other favorites included The Dinah Shore Show,Tennessee Ernie Ford and later, the Dean Martin Show and later Sonny and Cher, The Monkees and Donny and Marie Osmond.

Therecord companies were selling singles, then records and the then long-playingstereo records. Stereos were becomingaccepted as fine furniture, at the same time as upscale stereo systems becamemore and more common. It seemed at timesthat the music was less important than the equipment that it was played on.Then almost overnight it seemed, eight-track cassettes were available andpeople switched to the handy map pocket sized cases with the tape players builtinto the cars. The tape players had hardly made it into automobiles before CDplayers were optional equipment and then standard equipment in many vehicles.

Athome, CD players were built into computers and the speed and quality of thediscs improved exponentially over the next few months. At the same time as the media forms werechanging from records to CDs, many musical instruments sound was createdelectronically on electronic keyboards.These instruments had a piano like keyboard but added chords, rhythmsand embellishments to a one finger melody.There are even prerecorded pieces that can be played.

Today,many people listen to music on headphones from an MP3 player or even to musicpieces downloaded to their cell phones.Sharing musical ring tones, or musical pieces by their favorite artistwith friends is a common way to spend an evening. At the same time as music carrying capacityjams more music into a smaller disk or memory card, televisions screens aregetting larger and larger. In fact, youcan listen to dozens of music stations sorted by genre on your television setbilled as a home theater experience.

Today there are not many high class stereosystems including a radio, record player, and cassette player around. A mobile phone unit can pull in FM radiostations, play memory cards with dozens of songs per memory card in one smallpackage, not much larger than a candy bar.By using a headphone or Bluetooth technology, each listener can be lostin a completely different kind of musical enjoyment.

The Top 8 Things the Music, Television, Movie and Consumer Electronics Industries Should Do

The music, television, movie and consumer electronics industries have been struggling with the rapid advance of technology and the new virtuality of content. Here are the top eight things the industries should do to harness the technology and recapture the simple tenet of giving the customer what they want.

The music, television, movie and consumer electronics industries (hereafter collectively referred to as the industry) have been struggling with the rapid advance of technology and the new virtuality of content. Here are the top eight things the industry should do to harness the technology and recapture the simple tenet of giving the customer what they want.

1. Offer three consumption models.

a. Offer all content free with ads.

All content should be available on demand all the time free with ads. The best examples of this so far are music videos at mtv.com and music.yahoo.com and TV shows at in2tv.aol.com. The worst examples of this are the television networks who still insist on having their content time expire after only a short period of availability. Networks should use the ad model to make their entire catalog of shows, current and past, available for free all the time. All media stores, such as iTunes, should also introduce the option of listening to or watching a brief ad per 10 minutes of content or so in order to enjoy the entire content rather than just short preview clips.

b. Rent all content without ads for a fee.

This is the same as 1a only without the ads for a fee. The best examples of this so far are Netflix and Yahoo! Music Unlimited. With the former, for as low as $8.99 per month, you can rent any movie in the store, and that now includes some that can be watched directly online. With the latter, for as low as $5.99 per month, you can listen to every song in the store as many times as you want with no ads. All media stores and sites should offer this option.

c. Sell all content Digital Rights Management(DRM, or copy protection)-free.

There will still always be a market for owning content outright, such as for those times where you just don't have an Internet connection or don't want to be tethered to a server. In these cases, for both online virtual formats and offline physical formats, DRM simply should go. It has proven to hamper sales significantly due to treating everyday paying customers as if they are pirates, restricting them to play back the content on too few devices, giving them the chore of backing up and managing licenses on their computer and violating their fair use rights. DRM will always be defeatable and the industry simply needs to stop investing an inordinate amount of time and money into something that has a negative impact on their bottom line. The industry should abandon it and get back to the basic premise of allowing the customer the joy of experiencing the content they paid for without any strings attached. The best example of this so far is EMI which is now allowing media stores to sell DRM-free songs.

2. Wireless Internet-enable all devices.

The computer cannot be the only access point. TVs, cable boxes, disc players, DVRs, game consoles, portables, boom boxes, phones, car head units - in short all playback devices - should come with built-in wireless connection to the Internet for access to content servers. The best examples of this so far are the Playstation 3 and the iPhone/iPod touch Wi-Fi Music Store.

3. End format wars.

When a new format is needed to advance the industry to the next level, there should be one and only one format that goes to market and becomes the standard. Like 1c, this applies to both online virtual formats and offline physical formats.

The current example in physical formats is Blu-ray vs. HD DVD. Two formats were necessary at first to spur competition, but the differences between them at this point are so negligible that ultimately one has to win for either to succeed. A standards body needs to exist to allow competition at first and to oversee a limited beta period to ensure customer opinions are factored in, but then to ultimately pick a winner before full-scale market launch. Companies should be required to register candidate formats in the early stages. The standards body should track investment and invention level of each candidate along the way. Then a winner should be chosen with a percentage of the licensing revenue going to all of the candidates commensurate with their investment and invention level. The candidates either agree to these terms from the get-go or they do not participate in determining and profiting from the next generation format.

The current example in virtual formats is mp3 vs. AAC vs. WMA vs. yet others for audio, and mpeg-4 (H.264) vs. WMV (VC-1) vs. yet others for video. Coupled with 1c, the industry should have standardized on mp3 and mpeg-4 a long time ago to ensure that all content will be universally playable on every device.

Correcting this immediately is essential. The industry should get a standards body in place as soon as possible and declare much overdue industry standards, such as Blu-ray, mp3 and mpeg-4. The marketplace will rejoice, sales will skyrocket and the floodgates will open on the dam the industry itself has been one of the largest contributors to building.

4. Allow playlists to be defined and stored on the servers.

What 1a and 1b do is move us away from the need to store and manage our own copies of the content on our client devices (or on our shelves). Moving playlists off of the clients is a natural extension of that. When we can dial up all content including our favorite playlists on demand all the time anywhere we have an Internet connection, the convenience of not having to permanently store and backup our own copies of the data will start to prevail. The best example of this so far is Yahoo! Music Jukebox.

5. Offer movies by the chapter in addition to whole.

Just as the norm is now to be able to buy individual songs rather than just whole albums, the same option should be available for buying the individual chapters of movies. Doing so would offer the same advantages as individual song sales - the ability to collect favorite chapters at lower cost and storage use, the ability to direct-access chapters on playback and the ability to arrange favorite chapters from various movies into playlists. Note that this would require players to pre-cache the next chapter to ensure gapless chapter-to-chapter playback, but that is certainly doable.

6. Offer a choice of bitrates.

Highly compressed bitrates were fine at first, but there is no doubt that even with today's bandwidth and storage (which will only grow with time), those who want to enjoy higher bitrates should have the option. With 1a and 1b, bandwidth is the primary factor, and clearly higher bitrates are possible even today. With 1c online formats, storage is also a factor, but even with today's capacities some may choose quality over quantity for must-have content.

7. Piggyback audio on video for physical formats.

The industry moving to a new physical format is a big undertaking. Assuming a new HD format succeeds for video, then audio should just piggyback on that success. The video format will obviously have enough capacity for audio, and consumers will not have to buy additional players. Previous HD audio attempts of DVD-Audio and Super Audio CD failed for several reasons - separate audio-only players, no single digital connection such as HDMI, format war, etc. - all of which can be avoided once either Blu-ray or HD DVD is declared the standard. Albums in uncompressed PCM, both 2-channel stereo and multi-channel surround, with HD extras such as music videos, live concert footage and still photos all played through an existing player with single HDMI connection would be very compelling. With lossless compression such as Dolby TrueHD, perhaps entire album box sets could fit on one disc. These are exciting new possibilities.

8. Leverage viral marketing.

This is an extension of 1a. Provide url-addressability to free ad-coupled content that sites anywhere can provide links to - it essentially equates to free marketing for you. It doesn't matter from where the eyeballs found the content, just that they found it. More eyeballs means more ad revenue in your pocket and more exposure that will lead to the eventual purchase of the content and related merchandise such as concert tickets, t-shirts, posters, action figures, toys, etc. A free ad-supported lure has always been necessary (radio and TV) for widespread exposure. The best examples of this so far are music videos at mtv.com and music.yahoo.com and TV shows at in2tv.aol.com. Music, movies and all TV programs should get on board and realize the massive new source of constant ad revenue never before possible without the new technology.

These eight things would take the industry out of its current slump and carry it into unprecedented growth territory.

Mel Gibson's 'The Passion' Movie Review
by Lady Camelot

Numbing, captivating, sorrowful, beautiful, profound, phenomenal and humbling - are just a few words to describe Mel Gibson's "The Passion." The last 12 hours of Jesus' life has never been so realistically and dramatically depicted. The scenes, although graphic are compelling and true-to-life.

The most sensitive scene presents Jesus carrying the cross upon His shoulders. As He staggers upon the cobblestone walkway, Mary sees a flashback of their lives together. A mere child, Jesus falls to the ground and Mother Mary is there to help him, "I'm here," she says. A million miles away in thought, Mary runs to the aid of her now-grown Son-Of-Man, as He, too stumbles to the stony pathway.

"The Passion" truly characterizes the meaning of "truth." There are no other words to describe this film other than it is "The Passion" of Christ. If anything, "The Passion" promotes absolute faith, forgiveness, love and hope - not only to God, but of humankind as well.

Starring James Caviezel (as leading role of Jesus Christ), "The Passion," in my opinion, does not induce an anti-Semitic depiction of the Jewish people; rather, it is a deep and profound truth which Mel Gibson had courage to recreate for all the world to see.

"The Passion" is playing in movie theaters everywhere. My advice is to view this movie with an open mind and open heart - the rest will follow.

I rate this movie: 4 STARS

The number of people wishing to know if they can download free Wii games is vast as the new Wii console has become increasingly popular over recent time. There are a wide variety of sites that offer Wii game downloads and the possibilities of obtaining the games, when conducting a simple search online. Whether these particular sites are in fact reliable as well as being virus free and providing games that are of quality is difficult to verify.

Older games will be offered on good Wii sites as well as new releases. Classic Nintendo games are supported by the Wii so you have the ability to download your old favorites, as well as demanded new games.
If you wish to download free Wii games, do a search for a site offering a good variety of different games. Sites should never receive your personal information or money if you do not trust them or if something doesn't quite feel right. Well designed sites that will not sell your personal information or overload your computer with malware are the ones you should stick with.

Wii game downloads are often offered by websites in two different types of deal. Rather than being charged for every download that you make, you could pay a one-time flat rate which will give you access to an unlimited number of downloads. Depending on how many games you require, should depend on which kind of website you select. The offer of unlimited downloads would be the best choice for you if you wish to download extensive Wii games.
It may be a better choice to only pay for one download if you just require one special Wii game that you cannot locate anywhere else as this will be cheaper.

Before downloading free Wii games, you may be required to download special software. You may either be connected to the main server of that site, or connected to other users of the site, which will enable you to download the Wii games that you require. Don't forget you will also need to locate an emulator that operates in exactly the same way that the Nintendo console would and remember to play downloaded games on your computer.

A website that you can download free Wii games from is simple to locate but selecting one from which you wish to download the games can be a little more difficult. All available sites should be checked cautiously prior to selecting one for downloading. Register with the website of your choice and within only a few minutes you could be downloading your favorite Wii games.

5 Secret Techniques to Writing a Killer Script!

By Ronald K. Armstrong

Writing is not easy, especially writing screenplays. In fact, in order to get good, I recommend that you write as often as possible. I see too many screenwriters starting out with false expectations. They think that they will sit down and on their first past write a great film. In my experience, great films come from screenwriters who have not only written material many times before but their best works come from a number of rewrites.

I advise that if you want to be a great filmmaker then you should learn how to be a great writer. The filmmaker is the visual storyteller of the script. The problem is that in our era writing good scripts, especially on the indie level, is not taken seriously enough. Most aspiring filmmakers strive to mimic Hollywood blockbusters. So they not only copy ideas from Hollywood, which are usually bad and done by committee, but in doing so they fail to perfect their craft and find their own voice as a writer.

Here are 5 Secrets that I find common in really good scripts. Of course, these are not the end all be all secrets on this subject matter because it is so lengthy it would take publishing several books to cover the ins and outs of screenwriting. For more tips check out my YouTube channel: www.ronkarmstrong.com

1. Have a great inciting incident. The is the motivation for things to happen. It gets things moving and provides context for the rest of the film. This doesn’t have to be action packed but it does grip the reader or audience right away. It is the key element that will propel your protagonist and antagonist into action.

2. Make every page a cliffhanger or a page-turner. Now, I am exaggerating a bit, but a good screenplay should leave the reader on the edge of his or her seat. This means you should structure your scenes in such a way that not only keeps them guessing as to what happens next but creates a burning desire to want to know what happens in the next scene.

3. Tell your story visually. Too often writers try to explain everything through exposition. Instead, use symbolism and imagery to convey the meanings you are trying to communicate to the audience. Remember the old saying “a picture is worth a thousand words”? Well, try trimming down your dialogue and include more visual expression. For reference, check out the film China Town starring Jack Nicholson.

4. A really good script typically has a great and complex villain. In fact, the best films are the ones that have an antagonist that you love to hate. But you shouldn’t forget that their motivation for being the way they are shouldn’t be trivial. Too many films suffer from poorly written villains whose motives were unclear.

5. Have your protagonist be imperfect. In fact, the characters that are written the best are usually those fighting with inner demons. This forces them to go through some type of character arc which, when dealt with, gives them the strength to confront and be victorious over the antagonist.

Bonus Tip: Try telling your story in a nonlinear fashion. The problem I have with a lot of the films that Hollywood produces is that they presuppose that life happens linearly. When I saw Deadpool I wasn’t blown away by it but I loved the non-linear structure that they used. It made the film more interesting. Although this can be a powerful storytelling technique, it is not easy to do. So you should try writing a few stories with it to get the hang of it.

Don’t forget that once you have written your screenplay try and get some feedback. You might think it’s a masterpiece of literary work but others will give you more of an objective opinion. But, if you are really serious and want to master this craft, I really believe you should watch as many movies as possible to study the writing. Then write as many screenplays as you can. The more you write the more you’ll define your voice and style! Good luck!

Theres Always A Movie Make You Cry

Usually there are some movies, even for decades, is still very classic. The reason why these classic films can last so long is that the profound thought of them can bring people inspiration. Summer has arrived, lots of people take this time to relax, like watching movies, especially those who have, an iphone, ipad, or ipod touch. Just can not wait to back to some classic films. Now I will recommend some classic movies from which I have seen before.

The Shawshank Redemption (1994)

The film portrays the story of Andy Dufresne, a banker who spends nearly two decades in Shawshank State Prison for the murder of his wife and her lover despite his claims of being innocent. During his time at the prison, he befriends a man inmate, Ellis " Red" Redding, and finds himself protected by the guards after the warden begins using him in his money laundering operation.

The Cove (2009)

The film highlights the fact that the number of dolphins killed in the Taiji dolphin hunting drive is several times greater than the number of whales killed in the Antarctic, and claims that 23, 000 dolphins and porpoises are killed in Japan annually by the state's whaling industry. The migrating dolphins are herded into a hidden cove where they are netted and killed by spears and knives over the side of small fishing boats. The film argues that dolphin hunting as practiced in Japan is unnecessary and cruel.

Leon (1994)

Leon Montana is a hitman living a solitary life in New York City's Little Italy. Leon spends his idle time engaging in calisthenics, growing a houseplant that early on he describes as his " best friend, " and enjoying old Gene Kelly musicals. On a particular day, he meets Mathilda Lando, a twelve-year-old girl with a black eye.

Life Is Beautiful (1997)

It is a 1997 Italian film which tells the story of a Jewish Italian, Guido Orefice, who ought to employ his fertile imagination to aid his family during their internment in a Nazi concentration camp.

Today is enough, at the end of this, I would like to remind you do not forget to prepare an ipad converter, iphone converter or an ipod converter, as a Apple fan, we often know that it is necessary to store such a thing, especially while watching movies with these equipment.

How Does Skywriting Work?

SURRENDER DOROTHY OR DIE. This was the message written in the sky by the wicked witch in the 1939 movie The Wizard of Oz. Ever since then sky writing has fascinated young and old alike. (Actually the witch's message was done with special effects in a 6 foot by 6 foot glass tank.) But skywriting goes back to 1922 where it was first done in England. That same year advertisers cashed in on the idea and skywriting became famous by Pepsi-Cola who used it from 1931 to 1953.

The movie The Wizard of Oz, a smash hit when it came out in 1939, had a scene where the wicked witch wrote SURRENDER DOROTHY OR DIE in the sky with her broom. Ever since sky writing has fascinated people. (The witch's message was actually just special effects, produced in a 6 foot by 6 foot glass tank.) But sky writing goes back further than that. It was first tried in1922 in England. Advertisers began using skywriting at the same time but Pepsi-Cola made it famous, using skywriting from 1931 to 1953.

How is the smoke made? Skywriting smoke is produced by injecting paraffin oil into the exhaust of the plane. As it heats in the exhaust, the oil produces an environmentally friendly white smoke that forms the letters as it lingers in the air. Of course, the pilot must select when to inject the oil so that part of a letter is formed.

The letters are about a mile tall and the message may be as long as fifteen miles. The drifting smoke only retains a letter for at most 20 minutes so the message must be written quickly and without mistakes. There is no such thing as a smoke eater to erase mistakes! The success of the mission is determined by several factors. First the skill of the pilot. He must be both skilled and artistic. Second, the plane must have sufficient maneuverability and power. The power is partly needed to produce sufficient heat (1500 degrees) to vaporize the paraffin oil. Some recommend planes with at least 450 horsepower engines because they are six times hotter than small plane engines.

Besides these factors, there is the weather. The wind cannot exceed three to five miles per hour. The sky must be nearly clear for the white letters to be visible against the blue sky. Since wind speed may vary at different heights, the planes will fly anywhere from 7000 and 17000 feet. At these heights, the message is visible for thirty miles on either side. Cooler air temperature makes more smoke, but the air temperature cannot exceed 95 degrees. The best months for these conditions are September and October.

The message usually contains four to six letters and it takes one to two minutes to form each letter. A shorter message is more likely to be visible at once. When a message is longer than this, then either the message is never seen together in its entirely, or multiple planes get involved. The two or three pilots coordinate their maneuvers so that their work together will produce the message visible in its entirety for a few minutes before it drifts away.

How large is the message? It is usually four to six letters and it takes one to two minutes to form each letter. A shorter message is more likely to be visible at once. Why not make it longer? When a message is longer than this, it will take too long to form so that it is seen all at once. One remedy is to hire multiple pilots. The two or three pilots coordinate their maneuvers so that, as they work together, they will produce the message visible for the minutes before it drifts away.

This method of advertising is so novel that it almost demands to be read all the time the letters are forming. So what kind of people would benefit from hiring skywriting to get their message across? Skywriting has been used to advertise soft drinks, motion pictures, websites, political candidates, products, and so forth. One company says they skywrite fifty marriage proposals each year.

What is the cost for skywriting? This depends on the company, and availability. If you must fly a skilled pilot from some distance, the cost of transportation could be greater than the message writing itself. Generally for local skywriting, prices start around $1000 and multiple messages are discounted.

Plastic Surgeon: Risk vs. Reward

Not everyone has been blessed by nature with perfect features and a movie star figure so many people will turn to the skilled hands of a plastic surgeon to achieve the reflection they dream of gazing upon each morning.

Some people would argue that far too often individuals are choosing to surgically alter the unique characteristics or features they were born with in order to look more like every other person, or someone they admire like a model, rock star or actor. When the question "Would you rather have an appointment with a plastic surgeon or go on an all-expense paid trip for Spring Break?" was posed to a group of teenagers, most chose the plastic surgeon, siting the desire to have rhinoplasty, breast augmentation, Dermabrasion or liposuction done (THEN have the Spring Break adventure). In the past it was much easier to note members of a family based on a similar nose or full lips or some attribute shared by siblings. Today it is becoming much more difficult to do so, as more and more people opt to correct what nature denied them.

A plastic surgeon will advise a patient of the risks involved prior to them undergoing any procedure.

-Blood clots developing
-Blood loss
-Infection
-Damage to sensory nerves
-Fluid retention
-Numbness

These risks are similar to those of any surgical procedure, but because plastic surgery is often times elective vs. medically necessary, some patients approach the process casually instead of with the seriousness that an operation warrants. That insurance rarely covers any cosmetic procedure or any illness associated with that procedure is clearly stated to the patient, so they understand that all medical expenses will be their responsibility to cover.

A plastic surgeon has the knowledge, the skill and the medical training to assist people in their pursuit of physical and emotional well-being. A person that has suffered for years with a physical anomaly that has caused them discomfort, on both a physical and emotional level, will benefit from that attribute being corrected. A woman that has experienced back and neck pain from overly large breasts, as well as inappropriate comments directed toward her impressive bust line, will be relieved to finally be free of that pain and unwanted attention. On the other hand, a young woman who has felt embarrassment from living with very small breasts may discover a new sense of confidence when she has implants put in and can finally wear the sort of clothing she has always dreamed of.

The surgeon will sit down and have a consultation with a patient prior to any procedure being done. The doctor will want to know what results the patient hopes to achieve and may request photos of what aspirations they have for this surgery. A woman with a small frame seeking breast implants may need to be dissuaded from DD implants and guided toward more appropriate C breasts, with the surgeon explaining how unnatural the larger breasts would appear, as well as how she may experience extreme discomfort due to her smaller stature. The same can be true of a person seeking to have rhinoplasty with dreams of a particular movie star's nose on their face, but due to structural differences, the results would appear awkward. A plastic surgeon spends years perfecting their skill and will want the best possible results for their patient, as the patient is a living representation of their work.
