Week 7 : Part 2
I watch the Lily's 'Asian influenced salad', Aey's 'Spider', and Long's 'How to add ram to a laptop'
From Asian influenced salad I learned about making soy dressing for salad with olive oil. It's not familiar but looks so nice. I usually add the soy sauce for making salty because I prefer to use a lot of sesame oil. I really like this combination which is soy sauce and sesame. Anyway, I'm gonna try to add a olive oil instead of sesame oil.
The short movie,'Spider',was shocking. A man tried to release his girlfriend's anger so he treated 3 piece of chocolate and did a naughty thing which is hiding a toy spider. After the girlfriend found and was surprised, she gets out of car and was hit by car to avoid the toy spider threw to her by him. It's was amazing. I really recommend many men learn to solve the problem without doing foolish thing.
For the last one, I watched the 'How to add ram to a laptop'. I've known if I wanted to add some chip in a laptop, I should disjoint. But it doesn't need. There is a door to add some ram easily. It's was really useful information for me.

Week 6 : Task 2 Mushroom Farm
<http://videos.howstuffworks.com/discovery-health/37226-lyon-in-the-kitchen-mushroom-farm-video.htm>
1. Summary
I watched about mushroom farm. The farmer's name was Fred Ellrot and his farm's name was F&F Farms.
Mushroom likes cool and moist so he should keep temperature down and humidity up.
He grows the 2 variety of mushroon ; one is the shiitake and the other is oyster mushroom. The shiitake is grown on natural oak log and the oyster mushroom is grown on black plastic bag. These mushroom is specialty mushrooms and have a earty and woody flavor.
2. Opinion
It was interesting. I didn't see that kinds of process. To growing from the black plastic bag isn't familiar for me. And it was good chace to know the name of mushrooms. I didn't know the exactly what it is even though I've eaten a lot of times even today. I was curious about why that mushroom's name is oyster. What's the origion of name?
3. Vocab
earty flavor - first and foremost as those that might come with a bit of actual dirt at the farmers market — vegetables like leeks, carrots, potatoes, cabbage, turnips and dainty radishes that still bear the evidence that they were once rooted to the earth, not bred in a laboratory or sterilized in a packaging plant in a remote town.

Week5 : Task 2 - Food, Inc.
I found the director's interview about Food, inc in PBS. It was already published to book and it continue to show. The director said the system of food made people sick and that hid the truth of food. We can see easily cheaper hamburger, pizza, snack etc than fruit and vegetable. It forces the lower income family to buy unhealthy food. Then, they are exposed to many disease such as diabetes and obesity. It is astonishing fact. The adevent of gigantic food company led to recent mechanism of food industy. The poor people are, the more they become to buy low quality food. I really want to watch this movie. It impressed me and remind the environment and oppression of big yourcompany. Buy local food and Keep health !
Week 5 : Task 1 - The Flavor of Seoul
The Flavor of Seoul

Summary :
Vocab :
Travel, Choice Tables: Seoul by Matt Gross & Fritzie Andrade July20, 2008

I chose this video after I scrutinized the web site of NYtimes video.
I was a little suprised for finding a video about Korea. And it talks about Korean food!
What a nice subject! It's not robot science. Those reason deserve to watch.
The editor visited Seoul, Korea and tried to eat original operating food.
Seoul is the South Korea's capital. There is awesome place to it.
Korean food is amazingly vary ; grilled fish, noodle stew, quick snack, kimchi
There are many innovative food.
They visited the Myeong-dong and Noryangjin. In Myeong-dong they tried to eat non-Korean spaghetti with ice cream corn and in Noryangjin tried to eat Hoe which is called Sashimi in U.S.
Noryangjin is the main seafood market in Seoul. One editor was surprised the number of food which comes with whatever customers order and live octopus.
Some people those spaghetti and live octopus are strange but for him those are just flavor of sort.
Vocab :
- innovative adj) (of a product, idea, etc.)featuring new methods; advanced and original
(There are many innovative food.)
(The store's products are innovative and effective.)
Opinion :
I watched this video at 11p.m. I was so hungry while I was watching and also I missed the authentic Korean food especially Hoe. In Korea I can eat cheap fresh raw fish. The quality is good comparing to price.
Like editor's narration some food seem odd for foreigners but if you tried that, you wouldn't to say again and you even might be like that. I'm sure. Specially, if you like spicy food, you should try Korean food. It might be your flavor I guess.
Try authentic Korean food when you'll visit Korea or everywhere.

Week 4 : Task 2 - Monk Santa
I like monk. He is the main character in drama. He was a police officer but since his wife died for car cashing by someone who tried to kill Mr. Monk,his disease,OCD(obessive compulsive disorder) and many kinds of phobia,become intensified thus he couldn't work anymore.
He is so funny. Maybe you can guess how he do generally. He likes really really organizing everyting even size of whole bread.
In this scene he's looking suspect while disguising a santa. But he told his sorrow to kids. What are you doing Monk?! You should tell good something to kids!!
