How to use the nature power - 0 views

  •  
    The universe is full of power, earth is a tiny piece of the whole universe. Human already knew how to use the nature power and that power makes our life much better. If we can use universe power, our life must be cooler. The earth is rotating the sun and the sun is rotating too. If we use the power of rotating, we can save a lot of energy. And if we understand of the universe, we can stop a lot of farm to happen. The space has huge power and the power is harmful, a single planet can be destroyed by the power. If we can use the power and know things earlier, then there will be less problems, and human life will be longer. People are trying to use solar energy now, where sun lights create power and it's a good way to save energy. "There has been a dramatic decrease in cost and prices over the past 12 months, which puts utilities in a strong position to bargain," says Chris O'Brien, head of market development for Oerlikon Solar. The Swiss company launched its solar group in 2007, offering end to end manufacturing lines for thin film PV. O'Brien says first-generation thin film customers in Europe have a manufacturing cost of approximately $1.50/W for a thin film PV module. His company's goal is to drive costs to around $0.70/W by the end of next year. With the current cost structure, including federal incentives, a 10 MW PV plant in California can have a delivered cost of electricity of around $0.15/kW. O'Brien says he expects that to fall below $0.10/kW by 2012. I really like this quote, because it told us how much money that the solar energy is saving for us. And it also told us, if we use the nature power, we can do a lot to keep our earth healthier.

    Q: What makes music so interesting? I'm learning more about Music right now, and in particular what I'm wondering about is: "What makes music so interesting?" I was researching this question online, and this blog post caught my attention because of the title. This blog post sparked my interest because it answere one of my questions. "Do you think it's possible that you might think you like certain bands only because your friends tell you they're awesome, not because you actually enjoy their music?" The quote i chose here is basically saying that you may only like the band because of your friends. You may not like the music, but because your friends enjoy them you believe you have to like them too. I think this is interesting because it makes me wonder if the bands that i like have anything to do with my friends. Do i like the groups because of my friends? Do i actually like their music? After reading this blog it makes me question the type of music that i listen too. Throughout the world. many people listen to music on a daily basis. People listen to it on their way to school and work, and coming back home. There are many ways to listen to music; through the inventions that have been made. These inventions have evolved over time starting with the radio to cd players to ipods. However, what makes music so interesting? What makes music so interesting? Is it there catchy tunes, their beats, rhythm. People like to listen to music that they like. People have many different preferences of music, which is why there are so many different types of music genre today. Music ranges from jazz to pop, R&B to hip-hop, classical to rock etc. Each genre of music has their own rhythm and tunes, which sets it apart from other pieces of music. Not only has music players evolved so has music itself. One mmusician may have a stlye of music which he/she changed around a little, and a different singer may have taken ta\hat style and

She can't stop searching for her lost brother - JSOnline - 0 views

  • remembers the day Wallace was splashing buckets of water on the family ho

    The mental illness took hold when he was about 25. Sheila remembers the day Wallace was splashing buckets of water on the family home, convinced that the gas company was shooting radiation at the windows. Its so sad when people start to think that they are not safe in their own home. This reminds me of a movie I watched where the girl had schizophrenia and she didn't trust anyone around her.

long sleep for babies are okay. but not for adults? - 0 views

  •  
    I think babies' sleep schedules can change every so often. But for as long as toddlers are still getting a good 10 to 12 hours of sleep per night, plus naptime - then your baby is doing fine.

Director Discusses Success Through Perseverance - 0 views

  •  
    This is a great article that deals with director Brett Ratner, a big time Hollywood movie director who discussed his life on how he made it to the top. Its great to read and the advice he gives is great for future successful filmmakers as myself. Its a great "boost-up" to read if any of you filmmakers ever feel down and feel all is lost.

Psychology of Fear: What Makes Us Scared and Why Do We Want It? - 1 views

  •  
    Recent studies have shown that this also effects gender roles and what each gender is "supposed" to do in watching a horror film. "There's a great set of studies done here at Indiana where they had a male and a female watch horror films together, and when the female was a part of the experiment the male would watch it if the female appeared uncomfortable, squeamish, unhappy with the content, then the male enjoyed the movie more and rated the female as more attractive," Weaver said. And vice-versa: If the man appeared frightened, the woman would enjoy the movie less, and find her companion less attractive."
  •  
    I read the title and I thought that it would be similar to my essay topic of phobias. It turned out, not so really, because it focused on people watching horror films. I especially like the part (where Jose quoted) that when a guy and girl go to the horror film. They both either dislike or like the movie depending on how their partner would react. Maybe I would be similar to this example because I can't take it when a guy gets frightened. It's just not cool. Music is also a frightening play on people! I hate it when the suspense builds and it just terrifies before the actual scene.

Dissociative Identity Disorder and the Cycle of Violence - 0 views

  •  
    I'm learning more about dissociative identity disorder or DID also known as multiple personality disorder or MPD right now, and in particular what I'm wondering about is what causes DID and is there a was cure this disorder. I was researching this question online, and this news item caught my attention because the article had a lot of information about the dis order and it was an interesting article. Treatment may vary, but the general consensus involves steps of psychotherapy. Firstly, the therapist should foster an attitude of respect of each personality for each other. Secondly, a therapist should establish meaningful conversation with as many personalities as possible without siding with any one of them. Lastly, the therapist should help the personalities to merge together to become one complete integrated personality (Howe, 1984). Dissociative identity disorder does not cure itself, thus treatment is extremely important. The quote I chose here is basically saying how a therapist should start treatment with a DID patient. The steps of each treatment and also that DID doesn't cure itself and it needs treatment.
