Why frogs and mosquitoes are enemies?

(Favourite stories from Philippines)

A long time ago, there was an old crab who liked to sleep. But there were some frogs living nearby who
made a loud noise. They kept him awake at night. One night, the crab became very angry.
Dont make so much noise! he shouted.
We cant help it, said the king of the frogs.
Were talking about our friend the turtle.
Whats wrong with the turtle? Dont you know? asked the king of the frogs. he carries his house on
his back.
The crab then asked the turtle, Why do you carry your house on your back?
Because Im afraid the firefly will set light to it, answered the turtle.
The crab then asked the firefly, Why do you want to set fire to the poor turtles house?
Because the fire will keep away the mosquitoes, said the firefly.
And why do you want to give so much trouble to the firefly? the crab asked the mosquito.
I dont, replied the mosquito. At the same time, the mosquito bit the king of the frogs who had first
spoken to the crab.He jumped at least six inches in the air. Ooch! he cried. Dont bite me! Its painful!
But the mosquito dived at him again. He was very angry.The king of the frogs stuck out his tongue and caught
him. That was the end of the mosquito.Since then, frogs and mosquitoes have been enemies. Even now,
mosquitoes always chase frogs and bite them whenever they have the chance.

The Advantage and Disadvantage of Nuclear Power

Nuclear power is generated by using uranium which is a metal mined in various part of the world. The first large
scale of nuclear power station was opened at Calder Hall in Cumbria, England in 1956.

Some military ships and submarines have nuclear power plant for engine. Nuclear power produces around 11%
of the worlds energy needed, and produces huge amounts of energy. It cause no pollution as we would get
when burning fossil fuels. The advantages of nuclear plant are as follow:

It costs about the same coal, so it is not expansive to make.

It does not produce smoke or carbon dioxide, so it does not contribute to the greenhouse effect.
It produces huge amounts of energy from small amount of uranium.
It produces small amount of waste.
It is reliable.
On the other hand, nuclear power is very, very dangerous. It must be sealed up and buried for many years to
allow the radioactivity to die away. Furthermore, although it is reliable, a lot of money has to be spent on safety
because if it does go wrong, a nuclear accident ca be a major accident.

People are increasingly concerned about this matter. In the 1990s nuclear power was the fastest growing source
of power in many parts of the world.

How does Rain Happen?

Rain is the primary source of fresh water for most areas of the world, providing suitable conditions for diverse
ecosystems, as well as water for hydroelectric power plants and crop irrigation.

The phenomenon of rain is actually a water circle. The concept of the water cycle involves the sun heating the
Earth's surface water and causing the surface water to evaporate. The water vapor rises into the Earth's
atmosphere. The water in the atmosphere cools and condenses into liquid droplets. The droplets grow until they
are heavy and fall to the earth as precipitation which can be in the form of rain or snow.

However, not all rain reaches the surface. Some evaporates while falling through dry air. This is called virga, a
phenomenon which is often seen in hot, dry desert regions.

REVIEW = FILM

If you have high expectations in quality films, you must watch Hachiko Dogs Story .This movie,
whichdirected by Lasse Hallstrom(Dear John), is a true story about a legendary akita dog from Japan. I couldnt
figure out how Richard Gere, an American, was going to pull this off. As soon as I began watching the film, I
realized that it is an American re-telling. Its set in the U.S., and all the charactersare typical Americans.Gere
plays as a college professor who finds a lost puppy wondering around a trainstation. When he cant find the pups
owner, he winds up keeping the dog.
The professors Japanese pal identifies the puppy as an Akita and explains pertinent facts about the
breed. He also suggests a name for the pooch Hachiko, or Hachi, for short.Hachiko and its owner have an
extremely strong bond. Every morning, Hachi walks to the terminal with its owner, and every afternoon at five,
the dog returns to wait for the professor.One day the professor doesnt return from work. Hachi waits for hours,
until the professors daughter comes to take it home. Every day for ten long years, Hachi returns to thestation in
anticipation of its masters arrival at the train station. Vendors and employees at theterminal feed Hachi, but the
dog never accepts another master.
Hachi finally dies at the terminal,still waiting for his beloved master.Actually, I was disappointed with
the first part of the movie. It was pretty slow in places,and I guess I wanted to see more interaction between man
and dog.The ending took me by surprise. It is so sad movie as it was touching, in a bittersweet sortof way. We
can learn about loyalty from this movie.Regardless, this movie wont disappoint. See this movie and admire
Hachis undyingloyalty. You are obligated to if you like movies.
