Week 4 [ 11.04-17-04 ] Little Einsteins

Source: https://www.flickr.com/photos/arronhoare/6602557857 When their equals read their first books little Einsteins learn nuclear physics, create innovatory applications and  work on their first business. Have you ever heard about prodigies?  What were you doing when you were 5 years old? I would like to present to you a few people who prodigies. At first Tanishq Abraham. Now, he is 13-years old and he is an American River College’s graduate. Tanishq has started Collage when he was 8 years old. What were his peers doing when he started college? I think that they played and they learnt to read and do simple math. Tanishq from time to time gives a lecture on astronomy and paleontology. His parents are smart but not genius people. His father is a programmer and his mother is a vet. Parents had known that their son is amazing, because when he was 2 years old he could to count to 100. It isn’t typical. When he was 4 years old he was accepted for MENSA membership, he re

Week 4 [ 11.04-17-04 ] Petty offense or big pleasure?

Everyone has his own “addictions”. Do you know it? You start eating chocolate, one piece of chocolate, but after 15 minutes you realize the package is empty? At the beginning everything is good, but later on appears the feeling of  remorse and you feel sick. But it is unnecessarily. Of course we should follow common sense. Distraction in pleasures may be dangerous. You know it. Your favorite series, a new episode, you must watch it- It is a light option.  You haven’t got the  internet for a few days, when you have it back you check the series and you see- for example 10 new episodes of your favorite series. You start watching, you watch one episode, after that next and next, you don’t remember about other important, often more important than the series things. B

Week 4 [11.04 - 17.04] Making a Murderer

"Making a Murderer" is a fairly new and famous Netflix documentary series that had stirred some serious controversy and a backlash against the USA justice system. The 10 hour documentary was shot over a 10-year period and tells a story of a man battling the system after being wrongfully convicted. But that's just the beginning of the story. Steve Avery was wrongfully convicted of sexual assault in 1985 even though there were some serious inaccuracies in his case. The police sketch was supposedly based on his photo rather than the victim's description and he was convicted despite the fact he had an alibi. In 1997 some new evidence surfaced but was disregarded by the police. Finally in 2003, after 18 years in prison he was ultimately released and exonerated when the DNA presented in the case matched another man. After his release, Avery filed a lawsuit against the county and soon after he was accused of murdering a young woman. The documentary strongly pushes the

Week 4 [11.04 - 17.04] A treat for Star Wars fans

Just recently Star Wars: The Force Awakens bonus materials were released and very soon they will be available on Blu-ray with the movie. So it's a chance to talk about a really great, hour-long “making-of” documentary entitled  "The Secrets of the Force Awakens" which explores various areas of the film's production. Blu-ray also contains other bonus features, such as the scenes removed from the film. First of all, I really recommend checking out all of the content but I assume that all the hardcore fans here have already done it. The deleted scenes include Finn's encounter with a villager when he is still a stromtrooper, Genral Leia receiving a message about Poe, Kylo Ren searching the Millennium Falcon but also a real treat for special effects fans, because there is an unpolished scene of a speeder chase, which would be very interesting to every special effects creator. "The Secrets of the Force Awakens" shows the creative, planning and cons
