Taiwan, Why so angry to Korea ALAN

Taiwan player Yang sue jin was disqualified in the Taekwondo game and Taiwanese are blaming Korea. It was turned out that she put electrical senser that was not allowed in the game so following the rule, she was dis qualified. She and her coach said that "It was okay to wear this in the first and the second game but why not in this game?". Even though they were protesting strongly, it was not accepted.

The next day, Taiwanese started to have a protestant. They teared the Korean flag and stomped Korean instant noodle, which is popular in Taiwan and Taiwan reporters took a video.

As a result, the videos were on the internet, news.chinatimes.com, and Koreans are opposing it. They siad, " there were nothing wrong with the judgment, and the referee was Filipino, so they have no reason to oppose Korea."

ArriveNet readers wrote "We understand big problem but it is a problem that it is Kore's fault." , "It was unfortunate that excellent players were disqualified, but tearing other's flag is wrong." They are the comment by readers.

It was true that even before, Taiwan and Korea had a complex because of China. China, China, China... I think the main problem is China. Before, We had very bad relationship with China because China was communist country but we had really good relationship between Taiwan. However, later, China's economy got better, much better that Taiwan, and Korean decided to establish diplomatic relations with China and one condition was to sever the diplomatic relation. And Korea follewed that. If only China didn't have that condition, this would not have happened.

biooooooography!!!!!-Lina:D

When Rosa Parks was born, she was named Rosa Louise by her parents. Her father was a carpenter and her mother was a teacher. Her parents separated when she was two years old, and she with her mother and brother moved to her grandparent's farm.

Her mother, Leona, homeschooled her until she was eleven, then she attended a private school; the Montgomery Industrial School for Girls. Her training there helped to shape her views which would guide her later in life.

During this time in America blacks did not enjoy the rights they have today. Rosa remembered living in fear when she was a child as a result of the insults and prejudices against people of her race.

She attended college, but had to drop out to care for her grandmother who became ill. Later she cared for her mother. She married Raymond Parks, who was a barber. They were active in the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the NAACP (pronounced "N double A C P").

Rosa worked as a seamstress*. It was very tiring sitting at a sewing machine and sewing all day. To get to work she rode the bus.

Black people could not sit just anywhere they wanted in the bus. They had to sit in the back of the bus. If white people were already sitting in the front of the bus, the black person had to pay the fare, get off the bus, and reenter at the back door. Sometimes the bus driver just drove off and left them before they could get back on at the back door. If the bus filled up with people, the driver would ask a black person to move so he could reposition the movable sign which divided the black and white sections.

On December 1, 1955 after a hard day at work, Rosa was riding the bus home when the driver asked her and three black men to move to make more room in the white section. The three men moved, but Rosa refused. A police officer came, arrested her and took her to jail. She was bailed out that evening.

She didn't plan the incident, but when it happened, she decided to stand up for her rights. She was tired of being humiliated* and treated unfairly. She was not the first black person to refuse to move on a bus, but when the event happened to her, civil rights* leaders knew they had found someone to champion their cause. Rosa was a person who was above reproach, and people could not find fault with her character.

A group was formed and 35,000 handbills were distributed calling for a boycott* of the buses. This meant the blacks would refuse to ride the buses unless they were desegregated and they could sit anywhere in the bus. And refuse they did! For more than a year, 381 days, they boycotted the buses. They carpooled, rode in cabs, and walked to work.

On November 13, 1956 the United States Supreme Court ruled that segregation* was unlawful, and the city of Montgomery, Alabama had no right to impose it on people riding their buses. The next month the signs on the bus seats designating white and colored sections were removed. The boycott was over. . .!
 
 Rosa park did itttttttttt!!!!!!
 
 In my conclusion I think Rosa Park was soooo courageous!!!! AND RACISM SHOULD BE OVER!

News and viewssssss-Lina.H

can you belive that a 6 year old child is living in the mountin with a dog???? In the article it said .The child has been found living with a dog larger than him at a deep valley in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, local news reports said. Arung has lived with a dog, cooking his meal and washing his clothes in person. Netizens feel sympathy for him who is reported to have even been suffering from AIDS.



He has yet to be wild enough to be called “wolf man” in his daily life. But What has surprised people is that he feeds himself, even repairing his house and farming vegetables.I mean he was only 6 years old!!!Furthermore regrettably, the child has apparently inherited HIV from his parents who have been killed by AIDS, according to the residents living in a village at the foot of the mountain.




The six-year-old, who has grandmother as the only kin to him in the village, does not know what AIDS is. So they couldn't cure his parents.
Now many people are tring to help him.

In my conclusion, seeng in my view I think peole should adopt the child because it is impossible that 6 year old child can live by himself!!!

Bioooooography-Lina.H

I bet everybody know her ...  Marilyn Bell (born October 19, 1937) is a long-distance swimmer born in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. She was the first person to swim across Lake Ontario.




On September 8, 1954, Marilyn Bell started her swim across Lake Ontario from Youngstown, New York to Toronto, Ontario at virtually the same time as world famous American long-distance swimmer, Florence Chadwick. The Canadian National Exhibition (CNE) in Toronto had offered Chadwick $10,000 to swim the lake as a publicity effort for the annual exhibition. Bell, who felt the offer snubbed Canadian swimmers, took on the challenge without pay. After several hours, Ms. Chadwick was forced to give up with stomach pains and vomiting while 16-year-old Marilyn Bell became the first person ever to swim the thirty-two-mile distance.

The swiming conditions were less than ideal.It rained through the night and the water temputure was tooo cold it was just 16'C. starvness,boredem,and tireness she wanted to quit but she maintain the course. 

Marilyn kept up her strength with Pablum, corn syrup, and lemon juice with water, along with heroic encouragement from her boat crew and her coach, Gus Ryder. Radio stations broadcast hourly reports of her progress and rival newspapers published “extra” editions throughout the day. When she finally arrived at about 8:15 p.m., a crowd of 300,000 people gave her an emotional welcome at Sunnyside Waterfront, now known as Marilyn Bell Park.

In conclusion I'm so amazed and I bet it was a longgggg pilgrimge for her... I mean wow I'm so surprsied that she preserved the course even thugh the other competitors quit..!!!
I'm so amazed!!!

The effects of gambling -Lina@@

 THE GOOD AFFECTS:NONE!(Might be losing money if you were brain damaged!!)

 THE BAD AFFECTS:First you will be addicted and can not stop it.
You will know that it's harmful to you but you can't stop.
As same as smoking and drugs you will aviously know that those are bad for you and tries to stop you feel pain and go crazy.For an example my uncle tried to quit smoking and that night my uncle's hand was shaking and going crzy and couldn't contorl himself.Back to the point if you keep doing gamblings you might get mental problems and lose more and more money.

In conclusion When I grow up I will never gamble and will not even think of doing it and I having my "late lunch" now and I'm staarving and any ways biiiii:)

Essay -Gambling-

I think that lots of people enjoy gambling. The money is moving from a person to other people. Some people invest their whole property to win the gambling. Although lots of people enjoy and love gambling, there are also some people who disagree with gambling. Those people might think that there are lots of negative effects of gambling which is the topic that I’m going to talk about right now.

Firstly, gambling is very addictive. In other words, if we try it one time, we wouldn’t be able to stop it. When we get addicted to it, we become crazy about the thing and will gamble every day. For example, people gamble because they want to get money. Unfortunately, most of the time they play, they lose. From that time, they become greedy and angry. So they continue to gamble, but every single time they gamble, they lose the game and lose money. At last they wouldn’t be able to gamble anymore since they don’t have any money. This is the result of being addicted to gambling. They keep gambling and they keep losing money. Plus they only think about gambling, nothing else. They just concentrate on gambling, so they can’t keep their lives normally. As a result, gambling leads people to undergo poverties and make people to have hard time with living. I bet that no one would want to be poor.

Next, they will have some health problem. As I mentioned earlier, they wouldn’t be able to think about other things except gambling. One of those “other things” is their health. First, if they gamble, they can get physical health problem. One of the reasons is that in the place where people gamble, lots of people smoke. Since the gambling place is a sealant, the gamblers aren’t possible to breathe in fresh air instead of the air from smoke. In addition, if people gamble, sit down for a long time so they don’t have their legs comfortable. Secondly, there can be mental problem since their mind wouldn’t be balanced. For instance, normal people think about things in balance. They don’t concentrate on one thing for so many days.

In conclusion, I think that gambling can affect lots of people in very negative ways. I wouldn’t ever gamble when I grow up, because I don’t want to be poor!!

News and Views:Signs of alien civilization on Moon (Jordan)

According to the news, some people say that it seems to be ailien whose picture is taken. However, others say that that would be a built structure. Also some say that the third picture shows the iron water pipes while others say that it is a mark of ailien civilization. I think that there might be some ailiens because in some books, they tell about people seeing ailiens. Not only in the books, but there are also lots of clues of ailiens living in the moon. For example, in the second picture, it looks as if it is a kind of a creature, but I do not think that it would be a human being. Even though I believe that there are ailiens, I hope there aren't any ailiens, because they look ugly!

Biography Thomas Edison (Jordan)

I bet that everyone knows this guy, Thomas Edison. As you know he was one of the greatest inventors in the world. He was born in 1847 in United States. I attended to school for about 2years but after that, he quitted going to school. Instead, he learned from his mother. His family was so poor, so Edison had to work when he was only 12years old. His job was delivering newspaper. So he had to ride a train at 7:15 and he arrived 4hours later. When he was coming back to home, it was over 10o’clock so it was very dark. Even though he was tired, he was very excited because at that time, he was already interested in inventing things. Inventing things was and is very hard. We need lots of skiills to invent things and it would also take lots of time and labors. As a result, I'm so curious about how he became the best inventor ever.

Later, he decided to be an inventor.It was very hard thing to be an inventor for him because he didn't even attend school at that time. As I told you earlier, he just studied 2years at schools. But I think he was extremely interested in inventing things. So he invented a gramophone. We can listen to music with it and we also can record things with it. He also invented incandescent light bulb. It was very useful. Lastly, he also had electric lights installed in the New York City and lighted the street. He made so many things that we are using in our lives right now.

I think Edison is a great inventor. He made over1000 inventions in his life. I didn’t know that Edison was deaf. I think it will be horrible to be deaf. But, I’m so surprised that he made so many things even thought he is a deaf. Although I'm not blind, deaf or something, I can't even make a perfect paper airplane. That's the reason why it is so unbelievable for me that Edison could invent so many things while having some disabillities.



essay Alan

Now, I slept. awake from the dead sleep. you have a right to give us a homework and I am doing.


The main bad effect of gambling is simple, they can not stop. Commonly we call this addicted. Everyone knows that a lot of people are addicted to drugs. To buy them they sell their house, car, and sometimes they even sell their sons and daughters. They will say that they do this for their happiness, drinking those drugs. They say that they will quit it and they think a big win will stop if. But it is exactly the same thing as having drugs. They can not stop. There's two case, gambling and loosing all the money and gambling and become rich. Everyone knows that what will the person who lost all the money will do. However, there are 2 case for the person who become really rich, kept work and become richer or play and again loose all the money. It would be really good even if they work after they become rich by gambling but the problem is that almost everyone just spends it right away. That's the how they loose all the money.

You probably already know how much gambling can hurt families. Families may be affected in different ways. Gambling problems can be hidden for a long time, so many families will be shocked when they learn how much money has been lost. Some relationships do not survive a gambling problem. Other families struggle through difficulties and grow stronger together. People can and do recover from problem gambling, but it takes time and patience to work through all the issues. That problems will develope to the health problems. Not only that, it can be a main cause of the suicide. It is turned out that the rates of suicide are higher for people who gamble excessively, and for their family members. The people most likely to attempt suicide are those who also have a mental health problem such as depression. People who have threatened suicide or hurt themselves in the past are also more at risk.

I conclusion, I think gambling should be banned so more people will live in the happiness and peace.

Biography Alan

Bill Gates is founder and chief software architect of Microsoft, the most successful software company in the world. He was born on 28th October 1955.He become interested in programming while he was attending school in Seattle. Soon, he made his friend, Paul Allen, who was interested in programing too, and practiced their skills together in the school.
Bill went on to Harvard University and while they teamed up with Paul to make a new version of programming language for the first personnel computer. The company was impressed with Gates and Allen's work and licensed the software, resulting to Gates and Allen forming the company Microsoft to develop software for other companies. So Bill dropped out of Harvard to spend more time on the new business.
Microsoft announced Windows 1.0 in 1983, which promised a graphical user interface better graphics and multitasking. However the final product was not released for another 2 years until 1985, with very few compatible applications Windows did not sell well. As a result, Microsoft released a number of upgraded windows 2.0 versions which added many programs, versatility and features. At the age of 31 Bill Gates became the youngest self-made billionaire in American history.
In 1990 Microsoft headed by Bill Gates created a new version of Windows called Windows 3.0 with a much improved GUI and features which sold more than 10 million copies and after, Windows 3.1 and 3.11 came out. Building on their success, they tried to make better version and it is, right now, Windows XP. And, of course, Bill Gates become the richest man in the world.
The reason I picked him to do the biography is because he is richest man in the world and he has 46 billion! (he is second now, anyway) What are you going to do if you have such a great deal of money? Spend it? Save it? I will probably spend it ^^. However, he, as much as he could, donated the money. After Bill Gates married Melinda French Gates in 1994 and had three children, Jennifer, Rory and Phoebe, he had spend more than $3.2 billion to global health, $2 billion to improve learning opportunities to low income families, $477 million to community projects and more than $488 million to special projects and annual giving campaigns. That's I think amazing thing. I want to be a kind and generous person like him~!

But my conclusion is that I want the money!!!

volcanic eruption in Indoonesia Alan

Seven more people have died after a volcanic eruption spewed scorching ash into a village in Indonesia, a hospital official said Saturday. At least 76 people are now dead after the Friday eruption at Mount Merapi, in Central Java. Merapi continues to spill hot ash cloud and rumbles consistently. The data also indicates that the hot ash cloud that hit a village near the crater was 450 to 600 degrees Celsius (842 to 1,112 degrees Fahrenheit). "We have only been able to identify 11 of the dead because the burns were just too severe," said Endita, a spokeswoman for Dr. Sardjito Hospital in Central Java. Many Indonesians go by one name. "Most of these people lived around 10 to 20 kilometers away from the volcano," Endita said. It is teling that how fast an how dreadly it happened.

In all, about 120 people have died since Mount Merapi began erupting October 26. But Friday's eruption is being called Merapi's largest so far, unleashing ash clouds and gas that have reached villages in areas many thought were safe from the volcano's eruptions. The children's charity Plan International has launched an appeal to help 20,000 people fleeing the mountain. In addition, last week, a 7.7-magnitude earthquake hit Indonesia's coast, triggering a tsunami and killing at least 449 people. Hundreds more were injured.


Of course it would be very painful memory to the people who are there. I can imagine how dreadful it is. They will scream, run, no place to sleep.... it would be terrible. However, on the other hand, I think that there was a posibility that mount bek-doo would have erupted. Nowdays, before the eruption in Indonesia, there were almost no volcanic eruptions. So the magma under the land would try to come out to the thin part of the land and probably it was mount bek-doo or the on in Indonesia. Actually there was a steam coming out from the mount bek-doo too. To me, or to the Koreans, I thnk was is very lucky thing. Accroding to the news, it was told that if the mount Bek-doo erupt, not only Korea but also japan would be erased to the world map. So in conc;usion, I think that it was really bad for the Indonesians but in the point of view for Koreans, it was thanks to the mountain in Indonesia that mountain in our country didn't erupted.

NEWS AND VIEWS-MAGGIE-

There are all lot of unresistered foreign workers in korea. So every year or so, some of them get caught and get sent back to there home-lands as the result of their so called 'crime'. And now another foreigner has become a victim of this policy- and to end up with a sticky end.    One vietnamese worker was thrown into a coma and then sentenced dead, after falling out of the open window of the second floor of the factory he worked in. It is known that he was trying to run away from a group of officers who had broken in to the factory to catch unresistered workers. The vietnamese worker was included in the group of  soon-to-be-caught group, so he was desperate to find an opening for his escape. 

While running he noticed that one of the windows in the factory was opened-just enough for a grown man to jump out. It seemed like a perfact escape route at that time. From above, it also didn't look too high and it indeed wasn't. Seeing no other way he jumped out of the window, rather unstabily, as he landed on his head (because of serious brain damage) and died.

His death had triggered thousands of foreign workers and they are now HOWLING with boiling anger and  demanding for a compensation of the vietnamese worker's life. They are also requesting for not -so-severe break-ins of the officers and are seeking for the national human rights programe to help them and to adjust things fair in their ways.

In my opinion, our countries officers should not so brutally punish the foreign workers . They have their right to work in Korea, and their hard labour even helps our country to develp! Of course, being unresistered is elligile, but should it be as serious as this?  Bringing death to the people?
