Mastering the law of gravity

Martials arts have been very famous and practiced by several people in the worldwide since long time ago. This art,also called karate, was born in asia, mainly in china and japan where it had a big development like the asiatic culture. Some movies actors used these arts to make actions movies in their own town or nation, having a big success in all cinemas. Afterward, these movies were spread by all the world, producing a big attraction for the public. Yuen Wo-Ping is considered the world´s foremost action choreographer who helped many action stars movies like Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung and Jet Li to get international fame. The popularity of kung fu movies were growing rapidly in asia. Some movies of martials arts as Shaolin Drunkard,Chrouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, The ice  Storm and so on. The quality of swordmanship in the pictures is based on the japanese martial art kendo. Probably, these martials arts films could sustitute others actions movies.

Yo-yo

Honestly talking I never got to learn how to play with yo-yoes , i tried so many times though . it is kind of interesting the story of yo-yo because i would never imagine that it was dated that long ..i have seen people doing crazy tricks with them  which seems that they've been practicing for years..

The Chinese discovered America

Well, i personally would say that according to what we've read in our pamphlet there is a huge chance for us to believe that Chinese actually discovered this continent way long back.  it really surprises me the fact that people all over the world still blindly believe and think that Colombus discovered america without thinking that somebody else could have come way before Christopher Colombus did...

The Ups and Downs of yo-yos
the yo-yo is an object consisting  an axle conected to two disks and length of string looped around the axle.
There are many yo-yos tricks, like sleeper this is one the most basic tricks but the most famous tricks on the yo-yos is "Walk  the dog" this is done by throwing a strong sleeper and allowing the yo-yo to roll across the floor, before tugging it back to the hand.
Smart car development has already led to some innovations that are commonplace on many makes and models today. One example is the modern automatic emergency notification system, in which sensors on the vehicle connect with a central support organization and relay distress signals when there is a collision or some sort of mechanical failure. These same systems also allow for voice interaction between the driver and remote personnel who can alert authorities and thus provide assistance to an injured or otherwise infirm driver.

Many of the features envisioned for smart car production have to do with protecting the driver as well as other vehicles on the road. An autonomous cruise control feature activates automatically when road conditions are favorable for maintaining a consistent speed, thus minimizing the chances for traveling above the posted speed limit. Headlamps that automatically turn on when light conditions darken to a specific point are another example of smart innovation. A lane departure warning system that activates when ongoing traffic in the lane is present is another example of a feature that would help drivers avoid accidents and remain safe.

Efforts to create a smart car for mass production is ongoing, with some of the efforts spearheaded by government-approved organizations and commissions. Some private concerns are also involved in the continuing efforts to develop the ultimate smart car. Among the other features currently under development include the ability of the car to drive safely without the input of a human driver, and a monitoring system that would detect when a driver was intoxicated, in some sort of medical distress, or is otherwise rendered incapable of driving safely. There are also efforts to develop traffic sign recognition systems that would allow vehicles to detect and interpret traffic signals, signs posted along the side of the road.

Smart cars, Intelligent highways

Nowadays scientifics create a lot of intelligent things to make our lives better and easier, and also to protect the enviroment. One example or things that make our lives easier are smart phones, some years ago you needed a camara to take pictures, a computer to navegate on the internet and a telephone to make calls, but now you can do all these things just using a smart phone. The same happens with smart huses which you can turn on or off the airconditioner or the lights, lock and unlock doors and windows using acontrol or your voice.

There are also smart things that protect the enviroment like electric cars which -of course- use electricity instead of fuel in order to reduce pollution.


The Ups and Down of Yo-yos

The yo-yo in its simplest form is an object consisting of an axle connected to two disks, and a length of string looped around the axle, similar to a slender pool. It is played by holding the free end of the string known as the handle allowing gravity or the force of a thrown to spin the yo-yo and unwind the string then allowing the yo-yo to win itself back to one`s hand, exploiting its spin. This is often called  ``yo-yoing``.  Yo-yoing remains a popular past time of many generations and cultures. One of the most basic tricks is called the sleeper, where the yo-yo spins at the end of the string for a noticeable amount of time before returning to the hand. Many yo-yo tricks are done where the yo-yo is said to be sleeping. One of the most famous tricks on the yo-yo is ``walk the dog``. This is done by throwing a strong sleeper and allowing the yo-yo to roll across the floor, before tugging it back to the hand.





SMART CARS


Smart Cars also known as intelligent cars, smart cars are vehicles that are equipped with system-driven forms of artificial intelligence. The underlying concept of smart cars is to free the driver from many of the mundane tasks associated with driving, making the act of driving more pleasant. The smart cars also make our lives easier and give us a lot of facilities. Many of the smart cars features we are seeing today are safety-related. Some are systems to avoid collisions, another safety device is a smart airbag system. One of the most convenient aspects of smart cars is their ability to navigate.

MASTERING THE LAW OF GRAVITY.



Mastering the law of gravity was for me an interesting unit, when I could learn about Yuen Wo-Ping considered the world`s foremost action choreographer and a veteran  more than fifty movies.Yuen directed a lot of  famous movies and also has been admired for the quality of the swordsmanship in his films and his style of sword fighting. This unit teaches us many things about martial arts.

The term martial arts refers to all the various systems of training for combat that have been arranged on systematized. Generally these systems or styles are all designed for one purpose: physically defeating opponents and defending againts threats. In fact, the word ``Martial`` derives from the name Mars, who was the Roman god of war. Martial arts are practiced for a variety of reasons; self defense, competition, physical health and fitness, entertainment, and as well as mental, physical, and spiritual development.

DID CHINESE DISCOVER AMERICA?

THERE HAVE LONG BEEN HINTS THAT COLUMBUS WAS NOT THE FIRST EXPLORER TO COME TO THE NEW WORLD.

Menzies believes that not only had the Chinese already explored the world before Columbus and other European explorers, but that it was with Chinese maps that the Europeans were able to circumnavigate the globe. Armed with the map as his flagship evidence, Menzies points out plenty of other artifacts that point to Chinese pre-Columbian occupation in the America




ABOUT CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS



Christopher Columbus  was an Italian explorer, navigator, and colonizer, born in the Republic of Genoa(Italy).[3][4][5][6] Under the auspices of the Catholic Monarchs of Spain, he completed four voyages across the Atlantic Ocean that led to general European awareness of the American continents. Those voyages, and his efforts to establish permanent settlements on the island of Hispaniola, initiated the Spanish colonization of the New World.

The name Christopher Columbus is the Anglicisation of the Latin Christophorus Columbus. His name in Italian is Cristoforo Colombo, and in Spanish, it is Cristóbal Colón. Columbus was born before 31 October 1451 in the territory of the Republic of Genoa (now part of modern Italy), though the exact location remains disputed.[11] His father was Domenico Colombo, a middle-class wool weaver who worked both in Genoa and Savona and who also owned a cheese stand at which young Christopher worked as a helper. Christopher's mother was Susanna Fontanarossa. Bartolomeo, Giovanni Pellegrino, and Giacomo were his brothers. Bartolomeo worked in a cartography workshop in Lisbon for at least part of his adulthood.[12] He also had a sister named Bianchinetta.[13]

THE UPS AND DOWN OF YO-YOS


THE YO-YO OF THIS TIME IS CONSIDERED A CHILD'S PLAYTHING.
IT IS USED AS A PASTIME AND CHILDREN ENJOY IT A LOT, MAIBE BECAUSE IT HAS LIGTHS OR BECAUSE O THEIR UPS AND DOWN.

Smart cars, intelligent highways

One of the most convinient aspect of smart cars is their hability to navigate.
Drivers say the place where they want to go, and smart cars figure out the best and easy way to reach the driver's destination.

THE UPS AND DOWNS OF YO-YOS

When I was a kid, I used to play a lot with yo-yos but the thing is that I didn't know that yo-yos was neither so remarkable in certain time nor where it came from. I considered yo-yos as one more toy. I didn't know that King Louis XVII played with a yo-yo, that it was used by adults to relieve tension and that Napoleon and his officers relaxed with their yo-yos before they get  into the war. It's owesome! because I played with yo-yo all the time during my childhood but I  knew nothing about all this information concerning yo-yos.

SMART CARS, INTELLIGENT HIGHWAYS




The creation of avanced technology, paved roads combined with other tactic create the most proficient roadways to better serve travelers. But, sometimes these roads are shortcut to the death if we careless. So, it doesn't matter Smart Cars, Intelligent Highway people should drive carefully.

Smart Cars


Cars today are smart, it is good that we can move to different places with them, in the past, it was hard we had to move by foot or by horse because we haven't had this media of transportation. In the near future, cars will be better than now, in developed countries I know that they should have a smart car, here in D.R, too in next 20 years, maybe in less time because Dominican people like to use technology.

 There are vehicles that are just comfortable and there are others that just put your finger on a button tells you the easiest route to your destination, or when you enter in the car, the door  put the seat belt, you choose the  smart car or a normal car, that is according  your pocket.

Many car makers say:
"The cars equipped with car-to-x technology may warn of hazards beyond the view of the driver, including traffic jams or the presence of a vehicle that is stopped emergency later."




























































smart cars


       It would be interesting to drive one of those smart cars in the near future if i can afford one according to my budget. Something that blows my mind in this chapter that we were dealing with, was that we can give a voice order to the vehicle to take us to any direction we wish to go or simply pass by. I think that one thing that might be confusing for almost everyone is to learn by heart what buttons to press in order to give an specific command to the automobile. It would be an adventure to be in a car stuffed with computer chips and buttons all over. One of the features among many other things concerning smart cars is their safe related security protection. This is, they will be capable to avoid or prevent  collisions in time before happening. An also, could be wonderful for drivers if the car warns you when an object or another vehicle is closed or if you stray out of your corresponding lane in order to keep you and others safe and sound.

Smar Cars, Intelligent Highways



Smart Automobile is a division of Daimler AG that designs, manufactures and markets microcars. Headquartered in Germany, Smart has its primary assembly plant in Hambach, France. Annette Winkler has served as Smart's CEO since 2010.

Smart uses a lowercase logotype in its branding and a logo incorporating the letter "c" for "compact" and an arrow for "forward thinking".

The design concept for Smart's automobiles began in the late 1980s, associated with Swatch. After a period of backing by Volkswagen, the first model was finally launched by Daimler-Benz in October 1998. Several variants on the original design have been introduced, with the original design, called the Fortwo, now in its second generation and available as an electric version.

Smart models are marketed globally, including in Asia, North and South America, Australia and in Europe — and have been the basis for conversions and design modifications by third parties, including electric conversions and performance upgrades. Brabus-tuned production models are widely available.
Mastering the Law of Gravity

Woody Allen is an American producer, entertainer, director, Oscar-winner, and screen star whose career spans more than 50 years. He worked as a comedy writer in the 1950s, writing jokes and scripts for television and publishing several books of short humor pieces. In the early 1960s, Allen began performing as a stand-up comic, emphasizing monologues rather than traditional jokes. As a comic, he developed the persona of an insecure, intellectual, fretful nebbish, which he maintains is quite different from his real-life personality. In 2004, Comedy Central ranked Allen in fourth place on a list of the 100 greatest stand-up comics, while a UK survey ranked Allen as the third greatest comedian. By the mid-1960s Allen was writing and directing films, first specializing in slapstick comedies before moving into dramatic material influenced by European art cinema during the 1970s. He is often identified as part of the New Hollywood wave of filmmakers of the mid-1960s to late '70s. Allen often stars in his films, typically in the persona he developed as a standup. Some best-known of his over 40 films are Annie Hall, Manhattan, Hannah and Her Sisters, and Midnight in Paris. Critic Roger Ebert described Allen as "a treasure of the cinema.
