  • A multimedia production

    Posted: October 5th, 2007, 7:55pm GMT by hannah90

    Since almost de beginning of the year we have been producing a story. We had to create a story about a specific hero character. My group has chosen the caregiver hero.

    Caregiver
    Quest: To help others.
    Fear: Selfishness.
    Dragon: Will take care of it and those it harms.
    Task: To give without maiming self
    Virtue: Compassion and generosity for others

    You can read the story at our wikispace

    And now you can watch our multimedia production, which is a little movie made by ourselves that retells the story…

  • To say goodbye

    Posted: June 25th, 2007, 3:36am GMT by hannah90
    Tonight, I’ve just came back from a “Goodbye party” of a friend of mine. And as I was coming back by bus, I realized that friendship can be the most beautiful thing in the world but at the same time the worst and the saddest thing. I’m not talking about the fight and the misunderstood [...]
  • Fracture, the new movie from Anthony Hopkins

    Posted: May 21st, 2007, 12:25pm GMT by hannah90

    In fact, Fracture is the name of the newest movie from Anthony Hopkins ( Hannibal), Ryan Gosling  (The Notebook and Stay) and David Strathairn.  I recomended it for the spectatos who like the “thinkin-movies” of judicial cases and etc..  It is a good option while the rooms for SpiderMan 3 are still full.

    Acctually, the movie rectracts the story of Willy Beachum (Ryan Gosling), which is a young and ambitious prosecutor, who is at the top moment of his professional life.  He’ d never lost a single case and is ready to assume a load in the famous agency Wooton Sims. However, before leaving the promoter position it has a last challenge in front of him: Ted Crawford (Anthony Hopkins)’ s case. After discovering that his wife was betraying him, Ted killed her with a shot in the head. It seemed a simple case, since it was a deliberate crime and with a clear confession, but Ted creates a complex labyrinth around the case and manages to obtain his absolution. Desiring to see Ted in jail, Willy don’ t give up of the searches even if he’ s not in the case anymore dareing his proper career, his future.

    I would notest the good participation of the actors. They are really good. Even if I was a little disappointed about the history…  I was still at the middle of the movie and I had already discovery the end… It is a little expected. It is the kind of movie that makes you think, where you try to unmask the case.

  • Is Abortion a Constitutional Right?

    Posted: April 18th, 2007, 2:43am GMT by hannah90

    In Second Opinion people posted their opinion about the question: Is Abortion a Constitutional Right?In United-States democrat Dick Schumer asked Judge Alito” is abortion a Constitutional Right since Free Speech is?”  In a matter of fact, abortion is a problematic that appears all the time in every country of the world. Abortion, or interruption of pregnancy, is, as the own name says, an interruption (spontaneous or provoked, being in this last case whether it is identified as medically and legally as voluntary interruption of pregnancy) of a pregnancy before the end of its normal development, many people define it as the death of the embryo. Taking a precise position is not easy because today people are very pledged in his opinion. The different religion plays an important role even in a secular state. For example, here in Brazil, the Republic is said a secular Republic, but the power of Christianity is so strong that the law cannot be modified because the majority of the population fallow religiously their belief and this would cause many many troubles to the State. In another way, sometimes the pregnancy may present problems that are fatal for the embryo or even to the own mother. When the death of embryos is already confirmed, this would not have to be a problem who involved judges and courts just for the realization of an abortion. In certain countries, the oppression is so large that the illegal abortions finish by causing innumerable deaths other women illnesses, internments and complications.In my opinion, I think that it should exist a different way who would find stability between law, religion, and ethic. If the government really would resolve this problematic, he should join together his ministers and compose a legislation who tries to satisfy as much as possible all the divergences. I don’t thinks that is fair that a young girl who has been abused is supposed to be pregnant and face things like that. But is not right too that woman uses this right making proof of ignorance having babies all the times and aborting. Is important an essential to give conscious of what this really means.
