Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds End

Today, my classmates and me just finish our Calculus’ test, we have a free time. So, we decide to watch the movie. The movie is “Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds End”. The story plot of the play is very complicated and it nearly approach three hours. But it’s a good movie I think. We watch the movie from 00:10 to 3:00, and then go to eat night snack. When we back to hall of residence, the sun has risen. Although we back so late, I decide not to sleep......

Picture Describe


This is a picture my friend photograph in Kampuchea. There is called Angkor Wat. It’s beside a way that go to the center of Angkor Wat. The building is the part of the excavations. So, it look dilapidated. The man stand in front of the door of the building. He seems take a camera in his hands, and he want to take a picture about this building. But he is very small in this picture, it isn’t look clearly. The four persons is certainly taking pictures. The horse is the man wear black T-shirt bring to borrow to tourists to take pictures with his horse. Of course, it needs some money. The child should be his son. So, the man he is on the horse and the woman she is photographing is tourists.

HOT!!!

Oh my god! It’s so hot! The weather is very hot in the latest days. When I back to my room, the first thing what I do is to open the door and bath. And then I would peel my T-shit. Everyday I also go to buy ice creams with my friends. If I have air conditioning in my room, that is so good I dream.

How to Get to My House

Somebody like to go home very much, they almost go home every weak. But I don’t like it. I would go home one or twice a month.
When I go home, I have to go to parking and ride my motorcycle. As soon as I leave Chung Gang University, go along street, turn right to go to ching shan road. By the road, I can go downhill to Shin Juang. And then, I go Jung Jeng road along. This is a long road, it will pass Fu Jen Catholic University. About 5 minutes ago, I have to turn right to go on Da Han bridge when pass Fu Jen Catholic University. Off the bridge, go along the road, it is longer road than Jung Jeng road. About 15 minutes, also turn right to Shing Nan road. Go along this road, I could arrive my home.
It should spend about 40 minutes to one hour from Chung Gang University to my home. If I meet a traffic jam, it would waste much time on riding. So, I don’t like to go home too often. Because I don’t like that, my parents would worry about me. But, I will go home in my free time.

A Good Music

“What I’ve Done”!! It’s a good song I like it so much. The song sing from a ban I like very much. Their name is Linkin Park. The song is embodied in their new album “Minutes to Midnight”. It’s the song’s lyric:

What I Have Done

In this farewell,
There's no blood,
There's no alibi,
'Cause I've drawn regret
From the truth of a thousand lies.
So let mercy call
And wash away what I've done.

CHORUS:
I face myself
To cross out what I've become.
Erase myself
And let go of what I've done

What you've asked,
What you've thought of me.
Well, I clean the slate
With the hands of uncertainty.
So let mercy call
And wash away what I've done.

CHORUS

For what I've done.
I start again
And whatever pain may come
Today this ends.
I'm forgiving what I've done.

CHORUS

What I've done.
Forgiving what I've done.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=paIf4DBM6QI&eurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Ewretch%2Ecc%2Fblog%2FGuChick%26article%5Fid%3D5327172

My Classmate

My classmate’s name is Jack. He is 18-year-old. He comes from Taipei in Taiwan. He has studied in Chang Gung university half-year ago. He has a father, mother and an older bother. His family looks very harmonious.
He has learned English for five years. Because the compulsory education, he has learned English since junior high school. Even thought English isn’t his favorite, he still knows English is necessary for working in future. His hobbies and sports include listening to music, watching TV and playing PC game. Listening to music is his favorite. He has a lot of CDs and music. I often borrow great CDs from him and download his music from his computer. He also likes to help people. He lawns his note to his friends, teaches somebody lesson. So, all his friends think Jack is a man who is very nice and gentlemanlike.
I am very happy and honored to be his friend. I wish his English will become better and better, even love it. Maybe some day, he will go abroad to study.

Scientists find most Earth-like planet yet

It’s a news about find a Earth-like planet. Not only it is bigger than our earth but also it’s temperature lies between 0 and 40 degrees Celsius, and water would thus be liquid. Maybe someday, we can find other organism in the planet.
Scientists find most Earth-like planet yet
POSTED: 2331 GMT (0731 HKT), April 24, 2007 Story Highlights
• Astronomers detect exoplanet with possible Earth-like temperatures• Planet orbits a red dwarf star called Gliese 581• Gliese 581 is 20.5 light-years away in the constellation Libra• Scientist: Earth-like planet is either rocky or covered with oceans
WASHINGTON (Reuters) -- European astronomers have spotted what they say is the most Earth-like planet yet outside our solar system, with balmy temperatures that could support water and, potentially, life.
They have not directly seen the planet, orbiting a red dwarf star called Gliese 581. But measurements of the star suggest that a planet not much larger than the Earth is pulling on it, the researchers say in a letter to the editor of the journal Astronomy and Astrophysics.
"This one is the first one that is at the same time probably rocky, with water, and in a zone close to the star where the water could exist in liquid form," said Stephane Udry of the Geneva Observatory in Switzerland, who led the study.
"We have estimated that the mean temperature of this super-Earth lies between 0 and 40 degrees Celsius, and water would thus be liquid."
Most of the 200 or so planets that have been spotted outside this solar system have been gas giants like Jupiter. But this one is small.
"Its radius should be only 1.5 times the Earth's radius, and models predict that the planet should be either rocky, like our Earth, or covered with oceans," Udry said in a telephone interview.
It appears to have a mass five times that of Earth's.
The research team includes scientists credited with the first widely accepted discovery of a planet outside our solar system, in 1995.
Many teams are looking for planets circling other stars. They are especially looking for those similar to our own, planets that could support life.
That means finding water.
X marks the spot
"Because of its temperature and relative proximity, this planet will most probably be a very important target of the future space missions dedicated to the search for extra-terrestrial life," Xavier Delfosse, a member of the team from Grenoble University in France, said in a statement.
"On the treasure map of the universe, one would be tempted to mark this planet with an X."
Gliese 581 is among the 100 closest stars to Earth, just 20.5 light-years away in the constellation Libra.
A light-year is the distance light travels in a year, about 6 trillion miles (10 trillion km).
It is smaller and dimmer than the sun, so the planet can be close to it and yet not be overheated.
"These low-mass stars are the ones where we are going to be able to discover planets in the habitable zone first," said planet-hunter David Bennett of the University of Notre Dame in Indiana, who was not involved in the research.
Bennett cautioned that current temperature alone does not mean water still exists on the planet. It could have burned off ages ago, when the star was hotter than it is now.
Udry's team uses a method known as radial velocity, using the European Southern Observatory telescope at La Silla, Chile.
The same team has identified one larger planet orbiting Gliese 581 already and say they have strong evidence of a third planet with a mass about eight times that of the Earth.
Future missions, perhaps in 20 to 30 years, may be able to block the light from the star and take a spectrographic image of the planets. The color of the light coming from the planet can give hints of whether water, or perhaps large amounts of plant life, exist there.
