Another news story

Вырезка из рекламы Apple:

"Чем превосходен  IPhone так это тем, что если ты захочешь узнать погоду в горах для этого есть специальное приложение."

Если ты хочешь управлять 60-ти миллионной нацией на острове в Северной Атлантике, есть приложение которое поможет тебе в этом - правда оно доступно только для единственного человека - премьер-министра Великобритании Дэвида Кэмерона. Приложение было разработано 18-ти месечной молодой компанией на юге Лондона.

Приложение помогает просматривать веб-страницы и другие ресурсы предоставляющие оперативную информацию на рынке труда, в жилищной сфере и другие основные показатели, имеющие значения для правительства. Оно также помогает следить за  такими социальными сетями, как Facebook и Twitter, предоставляющие данные о мнениях избирателей.

Приложение временно назвали the Number 10 Dashboard, ссылаясь на официальную резиденцию премьер-министра находящееся на Даунинг стрит, дом 10 в Лондоне. Задача заключается в том, чтобы распространить это приложение среди членов правительства для улучшения его работы. Говорят премьер-министр скачал приложение на свой IPad.

James Cameron task

James wasn't a popular child in the school 'coz he was always reading science fiction books and was living in himself world being a science geek.I couldn't have such a friend in school.
60s was the time when every person could develop his creativity so it influenced a lot Cameron.
I think my time gives us opportunity to make ourself more versatile. There are no bans to human creation, so you can do what you love.
Cameron thinks that imagination make the best landscapes.
Reffering to Cameron's love to diving. According to his words deep ocean enviroment is full of amazing life, so it touched him very much. He didn't expect to see so beautiful and different world which was created with a rich imagination of nature. He takes inspiration from this strange and magnificent world. And drawing helps him in expressing emoutions from seen ocean's miracles. That's why they were and they are his main activities.
Unfortunatelly, I haven't seen Abyss by James Cameron. But I have watched Terminator 2 which has a lot of animation and digital prodaction. It  did impressed me a lot because I was interested in such effect in my childhood and I think is is one of the best his work.
When Cameron speaks about two films: Titanic and Avatar you can notice that he uses more emotionally colored words when he talk about explotion of Titanic. It was impressed him so much that he left director job and began to explore the ocean.So that's why I suppose that he likes to explore more then to imagine. Although he has success in both kinds of activity. I can't exactly tell what I like better of the two films. I like Titanic for realistic feelings and knowing that it objectively was and I like Avatar because of the amazing effects and originality of the idea. They both are uniqe films.
Lessons which Cameron has thanks to his job:
1)Curiosity is your main power; 
2)Imagination is a force that can actually manifest a reality;
3)Respect ofyour team is more important than all the laurels in the world;
4)Don't put limitations on yourself.

Starry night by Vincent Van Gogh

Van Gogh's Starry Night is considered his most famous work and it characterizes his individual technique.

The night sky depicted in the Starry Night painting is brimming with whirling clouds, shining stars, and a bright crescent moon. These internal elements ensure fluidity and such contours were important for the artist even though they were becoming less significant for other Impressionists at this time
Van Gogh's use of white and yellow creates a spiral effect and draws attention to the sky. Vertical lines such as the cypress tree and church tower softly break up the composition without retracting from the powerful night sky. Van Gogh uses color to convey emotion.
Van Gogh´s passion for nighttime is evident in Starry Night, where the powerful sky sits above the quiet town. It seems that van Gogh is contrasting life and death with luminous stars and a gloomy, peaceful village.
There are various interpretations of Starry Night and one is that this canvas depicts hope. It seems that van Gogh was showing that even with darkness it is still possible to see light in the windows of the houses, and with shining stars filling the sky, there is always light to guide you. It seems that van Gogh was finally being cured of his illness and had essentially found his heaven.

В конце 1940-х годов США помогали Германии пережить трудности после Второй Мировой войны.Сухие пайки были жизненно важной частью экономической поддержки и свиной жир от компании Swift был одним из менее важным ингредиентом. Но он очевидно был долговечный.
Консервная банка с красной, синей и белой этикеткой все еще хранится в чулане Ханса Фелдмерса. Так что 87 летний фармацевт на пенсии решил испытать её съедобность.
