World's First Hybrid Tugboat

Tugboats are usually powered by marine compression ignition engines. The engines are built to be extremely powerful because of the big size of the vessel.  Larger tugboats used in deeper waters have power ratings up to 27,000 horse power.Tugboats, ferries, fishing boats, and dredge vessels give off many carbon admissions. Which is clearly not good for the environment.So they are trying to make a better environment by using a hybrid electric tugboat.  They found it decreased emissions of soot by 73 percent, nitrogen oxides (smog forming compounds) by 51 percent, and CO2 (greenhouse gas) by 27 percent.Which helps the environment  the only problem is that they cost a lot to make. So hopefully they can find a way to make them cheaper because ever step to better environment is a step to success.


 

Pretty woman

Pretty woman is a great movie that is worth watching twice. It really gets the point across about dreams coming true. It has a fulfilling ending that really wraps it up. It also ends in a way that you could add a second movie to it. Like Father of the Bride it has a fulfilling ending but the second one just adds to it making it better.

It is a wonderful story about a hooker who doesn’t really want to be one, who gets the opportunity to turn her life around. She ends up going with a rich guy who really just wants directions not a hooker. He feels sorry for her so at first he hires her for the night. He gets a call, finds out he needs a date for the week so he hires her for the week. Then she does what a professional hooker would not do which changes everything.

This movie stars Julia Roberts and Richard Gere. They are both amazing actors. Julia Roberts just lights up the movie with her happy, warm and bubbly mood. an example would be when she makes him take the day off of work to just have fun. She also makes it believable when she’s angry.she does not accept it when his lawyer treats her like a hooker.she tells him that if he can’t stick up for her they’re not meant to be. If the moods are acted well it helps out the whole of the movie to make it so you can believe. Richard Gere also does a great job as the rich business man.he goes to big partys,he dates lots of girls,he’s usaully stressed instead of happy. He shows that everything is no nonsense until he meets the girl.

Overall the movie falls in a pretty predictable pattern. The guy meets the girl. They aren’t meant to fall in love but they do. The guy hurts the girl he says sorry and she forgives him. Then there is a twist in the story where she decides it won’t work so she doesn’t accept his offer. She leaves and they both miss each other. So he goes and finds her.

The lighting was well done in this movie. It really helped to set the scene. A certain type of dark is a romantic dark and another kind is a scary darkness and one is just a darkness of night. One type of bright is “inside out of the darkness” bright, like in the hotel lobby in the evening. the other is “wake up in the morning” bright, like when she’s laying in bed and the sun is streaming through the windows. Certain lightening also helps to represent a beautiful day. The lighting can set the mood, the time of day, and the setting.

Music also helps to set the mood and the setting. Like it’s more believable that it’s a wild party if there is loud music with a strong beat.an example would be at the club when everyone’s dancing and the music loud with a beat. If you would have classical music playing it would be hard to believe that it’s a wild party. Certain types of music can also emphasize the happiness or sadness of the people. An example of mood music would be when Richard plays romantic music when he and Julia are alone in the café in the lobby and the room is dimly lit.

In conclussion they did a good job of making the movie one you can sink into.They did a good job of making the movie believable with the acting and effects.every part can make a difference on to how the movie turns out. This movie had a good turnout.

solution for malnutrition

A nutritious blue-green algae, known as spirulina, has been added to school meals in Jordan to help fight chronic malnutrition anaemia in children.Almost one in ten Jordanian children suffer from chronic malnutrition, or long-term protein or energy deficiency, while a third are anaemic, according to a survey done by the Jordanian Department of Statistics (DOS)  in March. Spirulina has a role in fighting malnourishment, especially in children, and is often referred to "its low cost of farming as it can be grown even on infertile land and without a large water supply."it's amazing how an easy growing algae can solve a malnutrition problem throughout many youg children.

saving tigers.

The historic International Tiger Conservation Forum ended there meeting today with plans for better financial backing for saving the wild tigers. They are working hard to save the tigers but they will need all the funding they can get to save more tigers. At the moment they are working on a 12 year plan for saving tigers. They are meeting every month to get it all organized. They hope the government can step in to help support the cause of the tigers.The sooner the tigers get helped the better and with government support it would all go faster. so the best thing for us to do would be to join committees to save the tigers.

It is successful because it is something that’s simple and easy to remember but still significant

It is simple yet eye-catching with the name brand right underneath

It has the name of the brand with a catchy and good slogan

It’s simple and symbolic

A good logo should be simple but eye-catching and something that will stick in people’s heads. Sometimes color does that, sometimes it’s a slogan and sometimes it will be the symbolism of the logo.

battery recycling

It's not good to throw away batteries.Many people throw away household batteries. they think that it is ok to just throw away those batteries because they have less mercury in them. In reality it hurts the enviroment to throw any batteries away. They all should be recycled to help conserve our earth.
Older batteries are even more important to recycle. In batteries older than 1997 there are more toxic wastes then in batteries we now have.Some contain up to ten times the mercury.So dont throw away batteries recycle them.
