Culture corner

                                    My favorites

              In this text I would like to tell you about my favorite author, It is Ray Bradbury. His excellent stories produced great impression on me. Ray Douglas Bradbury (August 22, 1920 – June 5, 2012) was an American fantasy, science fiction, horror and mystery fiction author. Best known for his dystopian novel Fahrenheit 451 (1953) and for the science fiction and horror stories gathered together as The Martian Chronicles (1950) and The Illustrated Man (1951), Bradbury was one of the most celebrated 20th-century American genre writers. He wrote and consulted on many screenplays and television scripts, including Moby Dick and most notably, It Came from Outer Space, and many of his works have been adapted into comic books, television shows, and films. His fantasy it's something like a dream in real life, it cames when you read... Dream master ^-^ 
            Also in general I would like to tell you about culture and art. To know a lot about the culture and art you should to travel a lot. For example: John Thomson from Chicago, USA. He's 19 years old, and he was travelling around the world all last year. He learnt so mush about different cultures and he has some crazy experience, too. In the world there are many cultural places: opera, a musical, a ballet, a play, a pop or r rock concert, a classical music concert. For example: You should visit the concert Lady Gaga. Lady Gaga shows no sighn of slowing down. She writes songs, she sings and she dances, surprising audience with her unusual clothes. Her talent and hard work have made her a reigning icon of today's pop culture. Also, you should visit a Chinese opera. Opera has a long history in China. In ancient times, actors performed the operas on the streets on temporary stages with only hanging lanterns for lighting. It's funny to think that such grand art started out like that!
I really like to visit this places.

Manners, is it important?

                                Bad Manners

             Two days ago I was reading different people's blogs.  And I read a very interesting story , and now I have decided to write my opinion about it. In this blog, which I have read a boy, whose name is Liam writes about an upleasant situation in the cinema. He went out to the cinema with his friends to see a film he has wanted to see for ages. From the moment they sat down, a group of teenagers behind them didn't stop talking and laughing, and even chatting on their phones. Then he turned around and shouted at them. I think it is  really annoying . And what do you think about it?
Also one more story, from a man, who had  to travel on public transport every day. A few days ago, it was a boiling hot day and when his train pulled into the station and he saw the bodies pressed against the door, his heart sank. Then he found himself next to a man with a terrible body odour. Has this man never heard of a shower? When the writer got off the train , he took some huge deep breaths! He has never enjoyed the polluted air of the city so much.
And so people! YOU SHOULD THINK ABOUT OTHERS! And we mustn't suffer from your bad manners!

Etiquette in Russia, what are the rules?

                                           Etiquette

            When you travel a lot you have to know some rules of your behavior. I want to tell you part of Russian etiquette, because I know it better than other. So. firstly Russian people break all the stereotypes about our nation. We don't drink vodka a lot and haven't bears on the streets, we are very kind and friendly nation, in general. Also if you want to visit Russia, you have to know about our strange climate and about beautiful view.

• If you meet a friend on the street Russian and imprudently ask "How are you?", he stops, Take a deep breath  and would start the most detailed manner to enlighten you. It will list all of their ills and ailments of his wife; He tells what happened after he followed the advice of a doctor; you know how he feels at the moment; He will tell you what the school success of his son and the teacher said that the last parent meeting. Never, never ask a Russian, "How are you?", if you do not really want to know how was his work day and what he ate for breakfast today.
• Not bad in mind that in different cultures there is a difference in how close you need to be from the interlocutor and how often you are allowed to touch it during a call. For one experiment, Puerto Ricans, sitting at a restaurant table, touch each other 180 times per hour, the French - 110 British - never. Russian, unfortunately, no one had, but you can be sure that they are clearly somewhere between Puerto Ricans and the French.
•  Russian usually welcome guests with slippers in their hands, as a sign that they can feel "at your home" 

                 Of course each country has its own customs, but how interesting to learn the custom of other countries! I would love to read your comments where you can tell me your rules of behavior. Thank you for attention! 

Networking

                                 Oh... this computers...

Hello! I would like to tell you about Networks.

   We communicate on the Internet. And all people know about the best search engine in our world. It is Google. Do you know about The story of Google? It was the brainchild of Larry Page and Sergey Brin.They did  very hard work! they have thought through all the details. Google always have a very unusual design! It makes Google slpecial, not like the other! Also There we can find everything. There is different information about everything! And I think that it is really cool! I want to say thanks to those people, they gave us Google!
Almost all teenagers registered member in social networks.
We use Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, Friendster or LinkedIn. And so, then we are part of a social network. Social networking sites allow us to see our social connections. We can see our friends through pictures and links in a user-friendly interface. Also there we can look up old friends, make new friends and share music, photos and videos with them! I think that it is fun and cool, but some people live in the internet. I think that it is bad! because our life is running out ... let's enjoy the reality!!!!!
Just imagine our world without the Internet! How do you imagine it? I can 't do it.
I think that internet it is a very useful and necessary thing to everyone! But let's not dwell on the Internet .. 

Social problems

                           What do you think about this?

           Hello everyone, I would like to tell you about "fair rights" in my opinion.

Firstly about street art: Art or Not? So, I  learned about Knitters, Graffiti man, Lego repairing, Gardeners. Easy way to tell you "Who is knitters?" is to tell that they try to brighten up the steel and concrete landskape with knitters creations, after the  first try people have found that it's useful and magnificent. "It's a Woolly World" said Magda Sayeg she started this crazy hobby. Also one more interesting thing it's graffiti, it just decorates our world but police thinks it's bad and could arrest art man.
           About strange professions. Ben Langdon, he is forencis scientist, one day someone asked him like "Can you tell us a little about the equipment and scientific methods you use?" Ben: "So, as well as ordinary microscopes, we use powerful electron microscopes. We also use ultraviolet light to see traces of evidence like tiny fibres and spectometers which identify chemicals." For me this job the most interesting, I guess.
           Okay, it was ordinary job, legal in general, what about guys who choose the way of crimes? In a some words about cybercrimes. How would you feel if your computer was hijacked and used nasty email to your friends, or if a virus destroyed all your data? Well, this happens more often than you might think. In fact, in the UK alone hundreds of thousands of private computers are hacked every year. The people behind  these attacks are called "crackers" or "hackers". Hackers are highly intelligent programmers who can easily break into computer system. So, in our world a huge number of things are not simple, something can be pretty good, something we should scared.

P.S. Have ou any idea about bad graffiti or not? Please write me in comment, i want to know your opinion. ^-^

Still young...

             

                      A little part of philosophy from me

You're still young. Don't make your life miserble by thinking about problems. Instead, always think that in every problem these's solution and everything will be okay. Do what you think is right. Take risk, try new things, laugh and live as if there's no tomorrow, for the next years of your life you'll have no choice but to be more responsible. So enjoy while you're still young and vibrant.

KERRANG! News

                                                                     KERRANG!
                 One more post about music! I have a really great new, I found really awesome radio... But I will tell you about it in the end of this message. 
                 So, mews in my music taste is "Hinder" amazing rock band. Hinder is an American rock band from Oklahoma that was formed in 2001 by drummer Cody Hanson, former lead singer Austin Winkler and guitarist Joe "Blower Garvey. The band has released four studio albums.The band was inducted into the Oklahoma Music Hall of Fame in 2007. The band is best known for their early hits "Get Stoned," "Lips of an Angel," "Better than Me," How Long, "Use Me" and "Without You."
                 Also one week ago I was on the concert of "Black Veil Brides" it was the best day in my life!!! So, it was news.
                 About radio, I think you should try to hear ...   RADIO

                                                                 Photo from the concert.

                                                                    My new lovely band.

Each person has his own destiny

                                      Life experience

          Each person has their own point of the life, also they feel life like no other. For someone the most important thing is wedding, for example I know Indian guys, who had perfect wedding, they celebrate this date for ten days. My friend was there and she feel lucky to have met such warm people and have experienced a traditional Indian wedding. She told me that it was like being at the fairytale wedding of an Indian prince and princess! 

          Maybe this new family will have annoying situations like met someone with bad body odour or someone who gossips about other, but the will stand it, just becuse they know how it's bad.... Because one of the days of celebration was dedicated for social etiquette. So, it was about one famile , but other people might have difficulty understanding social etiqette, that is why I want to tell you about Liz Murray, she is speaker. Liz has shared the stage with world leaders like Mikhail Gorbachev and the Dalai Lama as an international speaker. She also presented her speech about  "Social Etiquette in the UK". This is one part of her speech, a little part. 

                         "If you are meeting someone for the first time, extend a hand to say hello. Britons greet each other with firm handshakes. Hugs are rare, but kissing on the cheek is not unusual between friends or relatives. Also, it's important to make eye contact  while speaking with someone: otherwisw you will seem rude or insincere. Use the titles, such as Dr Smith or Ms Norris,to show respect , unless someone invites you to use their first name." 

                                                      Thank you for your attention. 

What encourages children not to go to school?

                                                                 IS IT FAIR???

    Have you ever thought about “What encourages children not to go to school?”. Our group thinks that the fault is poverty, it’s the main reason. Of course, we don’t know how many millions children in our world work to earn money for piece of bread instead of learning. We think that children deprive a successful career and good future. They just bury their talents. And so why do children need to go to school? We found the answers like:

·         Broaden their horizons

·         Developing independence

·         Endurance training

May be in world we’ll never solve this problem, but perhaps we need to think about transforming this problem into an opportunity. For example:

      Child can be educated in the studio like a future master of this profession, but child still needs specific education in school. That is why these mythical pluses are also directly dependent on education. We guessed that everyone has to go to school for themselves and their knowledge.

“Do you feel that you ‘have to’ go to school or ‘may go’ to school” the answer for this question every child should find himself…

 We think that if more people would know that 1 million children work because they want to feed their family, they wouldn’t go to school and deprive a bright future, so people would appreciate what they have. When our group analysed this problem we inbued the children’s grief and now we appreciate things, which we have (What about you?). We believe that if almost everyone would think about this global problem in future we can achieve good results. So, people let’s help poor children and that let present to them bright future… People! Is it really hard to give children a small chance for a full life.

If you want to be healthy, Never try it

                      The pros and cons of extreme dieting

                Today I would like to tell you about extreme dieting... First of all my opinion on this is negative, but I will try in this message consider it for another way.

                Advantages:

• You can purchase any body shape
• If you have a form of body fat man, with weight loss your self-esteem will rise
   Also, With the right weight loss you will eat the right food, natural food...

        Disadventages: 

  • You will not be healthy as you lose weight quickly causes great stress for your body            
  • You can not stop and spend your body to exhaustion
    
       Also, one part of people can't do it how should

    So in general if you want to keep fit you can use dieting, if you want to be healthy you can live how you live now...But of course it all depends on the situation.

Summertime Sadness

                                            Lana Del Rey's style

               Soon comes the summer! Night parties, beautiful weather and of course the unforgettable walks with friends, parents and other close minded people. As for me, summer is the nicest time of the year, all around you bloom, enjoying life, and you give in to this mood. Already started the so-called "Skate period", my friends took out their skateboards from garages, wear warm vest and go away from trouble. I think this is a great way to have fun, but I prefer to bike, comfortable, fun and good for your body, Well, I'm really looking forward to this time, and you? what will you do? Offers in the comments;) 

P.S. Will you have summertime sadness? 

Music - creates man's inner world (Part 2)

                                                 Electro music

             Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe met by chance the first time August 19, 1981 in London's music store, where Tennant went to learn how to connect a piano he bought a home stereo system. Lowe promised to help with a synthesizer and picked up the phone Tennant. Three weeks later, the two met, and finding similar aspirations and common love for dance music, decided to join forces. Lowe then worked in the architectural firm, and Tennant, who had to move out of ten years many professions, worked as a music journalist. The first few years were given to writing music. One of the first songs was completed «Jealousy», which the duo officially recorded only in 1990. It's about "Pet shop boys", in my opinion this band like a like a turtle on its way to career success, success did not come, unfortunately, but you can listen to this music, typical '90. So, PET SHOP BOYS. 

           "Don't stop - move your body, come on move your body!" Do you know this song? It's Bob Sinclar's song, this song  was very popular, it twisted in every city, thanks to this song, this man has glorified herself, and this style of music!So, BOB SINCLAR.

            Massively developing in Europe, club culture came into the mainstream, thus increasing their level. Thus was born a new generation of singers, musicians and producers. Tijs Verwest, a.k.a. DJ Tiesto, - one of its representatives. While he worked and lived in his native Holland, DJ Tiesto showed a passion to convey to the audience his music and in his early career was engaged in that playing the little-known discos. Soon he moved to clubs where focused on the club and popular music from the Dutch charts. As a result, he opted for house music, simple hybrids bits imposed on deep bass, and began to create his own musical style. DJ TIESTO!  wow, his music sounds great, I like this, when I listen it I like on party in USA, great! 

            Perhaps it was excellent artists of the genre, that's all, but remember, each style has its gods - respect this! Good luck ^-^ And don't forget about comments, guys, I will wait for you ;)

What about the feedback on this blog?

                                         Comment man ^-^

           I think it is a good idea, so that we have some kind of communication in the online mode, let's start with the comments? Do not be afraid, it will be fun, I think. All you need to do - is to write  comments, how do you assess my work, and what do you want more, please let us begin to talk ^-^

How eye color affects us?

                                         Each color - excellent

              Green-eyed people are different aggressiveness, endurance, stubbornness, stability, firmness of principle and purpose. Tend to be hard work, will identify if the goal - to go to her, in spite of everything, hard to overcome all obstacles. Good organizers have credibility. They, like all bright-eyed, lacking energy and vitality. They do not really aspire to leadership, but want to be respected and the best professionals in the business. 

People with light brown eyes have a very different character than the owners of dark brown eyes. The lighter iris - the more indecision, isolation and shyness in a person. Often, these people indulge in dreams and dreams, preferring their action. Prone to laziness, passivity. They are impressionable and tender, touchy and sensitive. Different work ethic, humility, flexible, reliable and diligence.

This romantic and a dreamer. Many dream of love. Often invent feelings, fantasize. Women prefer beautiful gallant courtship by males. Vulnerable and sensitive. They are easy to hurt, and resentment they remember for a long time. All take to heart. Can greatly worry depressed. Prone to frequent changes of mood, whims. However, for all its sentimentality, great depth of feeling they may not show up.

People with gray eyes by nature - workers. They are smart, sensible, thoughtful, inquisitive. Practical, realistic, thorough, reliable, conscientious, patient, stands resolutely and firmly stand on their feet. Among them are many thinkers, intellectuals. Unassuming at home, relaxed and not ambitious in communication. Independent, self-sufficient and unhurried.

What color of eye do you have? I am Green-eyed.

Comics created just for kids? Huhuh, good joke

                                                     Comic - Con

                 Comic - Con has become the focal point for the world of comics conventions. The event continues to offer the complete convention experience: a giant Exhibit Hall (topping over 460,000 square feet in it's current incarnation); a massive progremming schedule (close to 700 separate events in 2014), featuring comics and all aspects of the popular arts, including hands-on workshops and educational and academic programming such as the Comics Art Conference; anime and film screenings (including a separate film festival); games; the Will Eisher Comic Industry Awards, the "Oscars" of the comics industry; a Masquerade costume competiton with prizes and trophies; an Autograph Area; an Art Show; and Portfolio Reviews, bringing together aspiring artists with major companies. 
                 I learned about this amazing show with the help of the series "The Big Bang Theory" where one of the main characters - Sheldon Cooper loved this show, it is very interesting to me and I began to search for information about it, unfortunately in Russia, well, or at least in Chelyabinsk no comics shops, it's sad ... But if I had the opportunity to attend this show - I would Tris from the movie "Divergent", I guess. So, do you want to visit this show?

Adolescent psychology

                                                       Through the eyes of a teenager

                   Today I an going to tell you about that bothers every child, "what will happen next?" "who I will? get me something or I will just janitor?".The most important thing at our age, it is only to learn and take care of their health, to learn - because knowledge will be needed in the future, in any case, the knowledge base must be in person. A large number of people now after school do not know what to do next, where to go, what to do? That is why the future work is necessary to determine now, otherwise it will be too late, the job must be chosen very carefully, because the worst thing if you do not love your job. Yes, but you always have doubts and insecurities, it is normal, but this must be fought, I'm trying to tell you that you - have to care about the future, learn, grow, otherwise you will not live a full life ,that is  awful. You shouldn't ever give up. No matter how hard the situation is, believe that something beautiful is going happen. If not you, then who? If not now, then when?

One day in school "7 keys"

                                                                           How we learn?

                                                A few photos which so everything is clear ^-^

Lyrical music - flight of the soul

                                   Music everywhere

                 Yesterday I wrote about my favorite band, If you remember I am rock fan, but also I listen music like "alternative ". So, I think I have good idea, because I think that no respect for other people's tastes and tastes in music - it is humiliating for the people and is one of the social issues, I start a new ruble to be called "Music everywhere" in it I will write about a variety of groups and solo singers. With their music, I will meet during the week, and then share their impressions, it will help to expand our knowledge of the music and respect our tastes in music. 

                 Today I would like to tell you about lyrical music and bands in this style. First of all, this band deserves the first place. The name of this band "Lifehouse" - amazing voice and beautiful words and the deep meaning of the song - these words about this band. So, "Lifehouse" don't forget it ^-^

                 Second place today - "Stone sour"  I know their singer played immediately in the two bands, "Slipknot" and "Stone sour", but surprisingly I did not cause it, these groups are very different kinds of music, but somehow people live in its two parts, a lyrical and harsh but true, this is really amazing.

                 Of course third place "Poets at the fall" this band seems to float down the river safely, do not follow the money, popularity and other unnecessary things, this is a true artist, the same as their songs, touched to the core.... Hope, you will like this topic. 

Look rationally into the future, it is difficult right?

                                         My future

                  Today I would like to  present an opportunity to see a video that I liked. It's TED's video, first of all I would like to tell you how I fiund "TED TALKS". My teacher, Anna, in addition to conducting an English lesson, we have breathtaking "debating society". On such lessons we look videos like this and discuss them, since I am very fond of this site. But, why the name of this topic "my future"? Because this video closely related to my future profession. I guess, I want to be  neurosurgeon or researcher in the field of natural sciences, in general my life I want to link with science, I will try to do everything to the science of the future is not ruined nature and the world, but only pulled people from the ecological and sociological problems. Now I'm working on a job that is devoted to the peculiarities of the metamorphosis of the human's brain, which I'll post later on this blog, I hope you will wait for this post. So, I hope you will enjoy this video, guys. 

Music - creates man's inner world

                       What gives me strength every day

              Once upon a time psychologists and scientists have learned that the music drastically affects a person, this fact threw scientists and the whole world in shock , in this time have been disclosed many secrets of man's inner world. Music can tell a lot about a person. Unfortunately I don't know such information in order to easily identify music by character... Today I would like to tell you about my favorite bands and my favorite style in music. I listen to a lot of bands ,I am music lover, I had a difficult choice of favorite bands, just because I want to tell you about 3 bands. 

              First of all, you should know, that I am rock fan, metal fan. So, the first place I put the band    "Black Veil Brides". I really love this guys, I love their music , like "Lost it all" and "In the end" and other, each member of the group has its own interesting and complicated history of musical life, I became interested in each of them, and loved them immediately when I heard their song number 1. The best band for me, and I hasten to share that I will go to him at a concert to be held on April 9 in Chelyabinsk. 

               Second place "Breaking Benjamin" this band.  I caught their sound, their songs I wake up and spend the day, they motivate me to good deeds and in some cases, give thought...

               And third place "Three Days Grace" with this group I have connected a special case, one of their songs that's called "I hate everything about you"" really helped me when I have all dropped from the hands and I did not have the strength ... then I field this band with all my heart.

              Someone told me that, who loves rock and metal "they are very lonely and thoughtful people" - Yes, may be... 

Healthy mind - healthy body

           I want to talk about the fact that many teenagers              don't understand

                   I can tell you many examples of people who do not want to learn, or otherwise improve yourself and your body, I think that is not good. Such children tend to grow lazy and not laboring workers, I have one or two classmates , who study in "lazy" style, everything that they want it's games, like "Dota 2" and others, they have ability of doing something new, or traveling around the world, but they just don't want... Why???? It's impossible to see every day, just a piece of meat... Sorry, but it's true, guys.  

                   So, I just want to tell you how you can develop your mind and body, I guess It can help you, my friend. From the beginning I tried to find the problem why many of today's children do not have the desire to learn and improve, but only came to 2 conclusions, one of them gadgets, about which I wrote in the past messages, also " a terrible upbringing ". I am just a student and I don't know how do it right, but I think that it's the reason in this  situation. (It's about second conclusion)

               Moreover, I have a list with some activities which can help you improve your body and mind. 

•          Dance
•          Play musical instruments
•          What about chess?

                   I want to tell you more about "dancing", because I am a dancer. I like such kind of activity because it can help you with your physical abilities, I guess. Also, in my school "7 keys" we have a group of dancers, I am dance in this group. The name of our club "Black wings", we recently won 1st place in the competition. (I fasten a few photos from this show) The point that activities don't just improve you, also you can get great pleasure from the process. Doing something, guys  ^-^
