Conan;  Stop.

             Stop it, Ray.

             Even if you are facing a bitter aspect of life.

             Drugs and murder are foul without any excuse.

             Deserve a red card for a loser.

Ray;  True. I was a cheater. Bad player.
         I lost the game.

         Now I must leave.

         For both my late wife... and a fan like you...

Takeshi's DET "Nelson Mansera speech"

 

1) Nelson Mandera speech after election as President

 

2)1:37

 

3)The South African pronunciation is interesting foor me.

 

4)

5)The time for healing of the wounds has come.

    The moment to bridge the chasms that divides us has come.

    The time to build is upon us.

    We have, at last, achieved our political emancipation.

    We pledge ourselves to liberate all our people from the continuing bondage of poverty,  
    deprivation, suffering, gender, and other discrimination.
 
    We commit ourselves to the construction of a complete, just and lasting peace.

    We understand it still that there is no easy road to freedom.

    We know it well that the none of us acting alone can ahieve success.

    We must therefore act together as a united people, for national reconciliation, for nation building,
    for the birth a new world.

    Let there be justice for all.

    Let there be peace for all.

    The sun shall never set on so glorious a human achievement.

    Let freedom reign!

    Thank you.

What The Hell Is That?

Yuriko's CAD on Life Extension

 Topic: Life extension

Issue: Should people live for 1000 years if they can live in the future?
Is it ethically good things?

Argument: Life extension that comes from people's wants is ethically not
acceptable.

Reasons:
1) The life that can live 1000 years is not naturally as human being.
Our life is limited,  and it is one of the humility of human.

2) Increasing the population will be one of the problem, if it will be
really possible.

Discussion Questions:

a) What do you think about life extension?
b) If you could live 1000 years in a healthy way, would you?
c) What would be the benefits for you, or for society?

III. Argument: Japanese people should accept parthenogenesis more.

IV. Reasons:

2) Women who cannot have partner can have her family.

V. Three Discussion Questions

3) If you are male, are you afraid of parthenogenesis which takes the meaning of man?

Mari's DEI "The best gift I ever survived" on TED

1) "The best gift I ever survived / Stacy Kramer

 

2) (2:02~3:08)

 

3) When I was watching this, I was very impressed. This movie's theme is very serious. I was thought about life.

 

4) http://www.ted.com/talks/stacey_kramer_the_best_gift_i_ever_survived.html

5)Script

By now I know you're dying to know what it is and where you can get one.

Does Amazon carry it?

Does it have the Apple logo on it?

Is there a waiting list?

Not likely.

This gift came to me about five months ago.

It looked more like this when it was all wrapped up not quite so pretty.

And this, and then this..

It was a rare gem a bring humor, hemangioblastoma the gift that keeps on giving.

And while I'm okay now, I wouldn't wish this gift for you.

I'm not sure you'd want it.

But I wouldn't change my experience.

It profoundly altered my life in ways I didn't expect in all the ways I just shared with you.

So the next time you're faced with something that's unexpected, unwanted and uncertain, consider that it just may be a gift.

ANAKIN: Thank you. my Master. 

PALPATINE: Rise, Darth Vader.

              Quiet!

              After all, enough's enough.

              Now what's up?

              Hey! What's goin' on here?!

              As I live and breathe... a fairy!

              Good Geppetto,

              you have given so much happiness to others.

              You deserve to have your wish come true.

              Little puppet made of pine...

              I can talk!

              I can walk!

              Yes, Pinocchio. I've given you life.

              Why?

              Because tonight Geppetto wished for a real boy.

              Am I a real boy?

              No, Pinocchio.

              To make Geppetto's wish come true will be entirely up to you.

              Up to me?

              Prove yourself brave, truthful, and unselfish,

              and someday you will be a real boy.

              A real boy!

              That won't be easy.

              You must learn to choose between right and wrong.

              Right and wrong?

              But how will I know?

              How will he know?

              Your conscience will tell you.

              What are conscience?

              What are conscience?

              Who, me?

              Would you like to be Pinocchio's conscience?

              Well, b... I... I...

              No tricks, now.

              I dub you Pinocchio's conscience,

              Lord High Keeper of the knowledge of right and wrong,

                                                                  

              counsellor in moments of temptation,

              and guide along the straight and narrow path.

              Arise, Sir Jiminy Cricket.

              Well! My, my!

              Say, that's pretty swell!

              Gee, thanks.

              But don't I get a badge or somethin'?

              Well, we'll see.

              You mean maybe I will?

              I shouldn't wonder.

              Make it a gold one?

              Maybe.

              Now, remember, Pinocchio, be a good boy.

              And always let your conscience be your guide.

              Goodbye, milady.

              Goodbye!

Mark's imitation of Jay Walker's English Mania

1) I will imitate Jay Walker's TED video titled English Mania.

2) 0:18 - 1:14

3) I chose this because I am interested in his speaking style, which is very clear.

4) 

5) Here's the transcript.

Let's talk about manias. Let's start with Beatle mania: hysterical teenagers, crying, screaming, pandemonium. Sports mania: deafening crowds, all for one idea -- get the ball in the net. Okay, religious mania: there's rapture, there's weeping, there's visions. Manias can be good. Manias can be alarming. Or manias can be deadly.
The world has a new mania. A mania for learning English. Listen as Chinese students practice their English by screaming it.

(Sample) Mark's CAD Outline on Commercial Surrogacy

Note: Make sure your subject line above has your name and topic like the sample above!
            Then, type the 5 things below.
 
Name: Mark Christianson
 
I. Topic: Commercial Surrogacy:

II. Issue: Should a woman (=a surrogate mother) be allowed to receive money to bear the baby of another person? This is becoming common in India.

III. Argument: Commercial surrogacy should be legalized in Japan because

IV. Reasons:
 
                1) More infertile couples can get a child with their own DNA,
                    It is better to make it available to more people by legalizing it


                2) Surrogate mothers can earn money and be protected by law.
                    Right now, the laws are unclear.  Accidents, problems can happen.

V. Three Discussion Questions
-----------------------
1. Do you have any questions about my opinion?
2. Do you agree?
3. Should surrogacy be voluntary or commercial? What do you think?
