The Car Raid

 
  Living a long happy and healthy life is what most strive to achieve including Chere Heintzmann. Although with hectic work schedule and unimaginable amounts of paper work living this goal of a lifestyle can be especially hard to achieve.  What some may not realize is that living just healthy but not happy isn't exactly the same as a life that is both healthy and happy. " Even though I go on a walk almost everyday and somehow found a way to eat healthy even with my busy schedule, I didn't feel a big sense of joy though out my day," Chere admitted. This all changed once she stumbled upon Pinterest and its large variety of quotes.
    Certainly with Chere large loads of work to finish and meeting to attend, she wouldn't be able to find time stroll though thousands of inspiring quotes to pick the one to read that makes her day. Instead on a day she had off from work, Chere pulled out a large box of sticky note while she  pulled up Pinterest on her phone and got down to work. At the end of that day Chere accomplished writing over 100 different quotes from the website that range from happy, funny, to inspiring quotes. " I have seen one of my relatives put up happy quotes all over her room so that is were I got my idea from." said Chere. Unlike putting up quotes in her office like her relative did Chere wanted to do something were she could see it more then once a day.
  In addtion Chere deciced to put the sticky note hanging from right below her car radio so she could see it while driving and get a sense of joy from the quote. Everyday Chere replaces the quote with a new one and before she can run out of quotes she uses her days off to create more sticky notes with different quotes. " Everybody has something that brings them joy," said Chere. "Even on days that seem to only have negative events I am always reminded of something positive with the quotes." Even though everybody has a different way they favor to live it doesn't take much to realize that little things can make a difference like Chere did.

Short Answers
1. I have never used Lyft or Uber before. I honestly don't like the idea of getting a ride from a complete strangers and I wouldn't use one of these ride sharing while I'm still young and I definitely wouldn't go by myself. I think when I'm in college or when ever I am older I might have to use a ride sharing program especially if I'm in the city but I hope they have striker background checks in the future.
2. I think that ride sharing is a good idea for the community of Austin because as the population of the city grows its getting harder to get a parking space downtown and ride sharing could help the amount of cars parked downtown especially during festivals. I think that ride sharing is a good idea but it could use striker background checks and rules for the drivers. Ride sharing could also help decrease the amount of drunk drivers on the road by helping people get a safe ride home.
3. I honestly don't know to much about the difference between ride sharing companies and a taxi company but I think that ride sharing is were everyday people may use this as their second job. I think that the taxi drivers job is the main source of income in their life and  these drivers might  have have to go through training for it and apply for the job. While these ride sharing drivers can use this job as a quick way to make money and anyone with a good record can do this job.
4. I think that both taxi and ride sharing companies should both have the same standard regarding safely issues. I think that both companies should have striker background checks and make sure the driver doesn't have a negative record. Safety should be the main priority in these companies to reassure the public that this is a safe alternative to other types of transportation.

3. Geofilters in snapchat are designs or icons that can be chosen to be added to pictures or videos to show location.
4. It is significant because he normally avoids technology companies.
5. Captain America: Civil War, The Jungle Book, Money Monsters, The Darkness, Mother's day.

Short Answers
1. I would rather go to Disney World because I think that their are more attractions for my whole family at Disney. I went to Disney for my moms meeting when I was younger and would want to go again and I am already going to Universal Studios in Orlando this year for another meeting.
2. The competition between the two are heating up because the both parks have or are constructing new attraction and which ever one is more interesting more people will attend that park. It ups to the better attraction to bring more people to either park.
3. My favorite disney character is either Peter Pan because that was one of my favorite movies when I was little. Another one of my favorite characters would be Bambi because the character is so adorable and I cried while watching that movie.
4. I think I would most likely be in Sytherin house because I am always up to something. I could also be in Hufferpuff because I a very loyal person to my friends and I also like the name Hufferpuff.

Captain Phillips Movie Review

  Plot-  The movie Captain Phillips covers the real life events of the Maersk Alabama hijacking that took place in early April of 2009. The cargo ship led by Captain Richard Phillips (Tom Hanks) along with the First Officer Shane Murphy ( Michael Chernus) and his crew was following the path through the Somali waters on its way to Mombassa. Even after receiving the warning about the privates in the area, the ship continued throughout the waters and incorporated practice drills to prepare the crew. While spotting two small boats following the ship Captain Phillips takes attics to lose the boats and manages to hold them off. After one failed attempt of attacking the ship only one small boat returned with four Somalian privates led by Abduwali Muse ( Barkhad Abdi) to hijack the ship.
 
   While the majority of the crew hides down in the engine room the Captain and other crew members are held hostage with guns  by Muse, Bilal (Barkhad Abdirahman), Najee ( Faysal Ahmed) and. Captain Phillips offers Muse the $30,000 that available on the boat but Muse insist on being paid more than a million dollars. Captain Phillips takes Muse and Bilal on a tour of the boat to find the crew while Murphy sneaks up to get some supplies for the crew. After hiding from the pirates Murphy see that Bilal isn't wearing any thing on his feet and alerts the crew to put broken glass outside the door. The power of the ship is cut off by the crew to make the pirates think it is broken and once entering the room Bilal steps on the glass and gets injured.

  Furthermore due to Bilal injuries, Muse sends him and Captain Phillips back up and continues to search the engine room alone. While searching the room Muse is attacked and held hostage by the crew. The crew forces Muse to tell the rest of the pirates that they will give them Muse and a lifeboat in exchange for Captain Phillips. The exchanges ends up with the pirates taking Captain Phillips hostage and leaving with him in the lifeboat. The pirates plan on getting in contact with their mother ship on the way back to the Somali shores.

    Meanwhile the crew continues to follow the lifeboat with the ship before help arrives. Tension rises in the lifeboat with Najee trying to convince the others that Captain Phillips isn't worth it and to kill him. Unable to get any help from the mother ship the pirates are left on their own to get back to the coast. The Maersk Alabama is forced to turn around and to leave by the U.S Navy destroyer USS Bainbridge. Additional ships are called in to take over the mission to rescue the captain.

The moral of the story leadership is needed to resolve a situation.
This movie would be for those who enjoy action and this movie isn't for those who don't take violence well.
I thought that the beginning of this movie was a little slow but began to pick up pace once on the ship. I enjoyed how the movie showed what was going on while pirates were leaving the tribe to go to the ship. The characters had a great ensemble effort. Overall I thought this movie captured the reality of the event it was based on.

I would give this movie a 3.5/5 because it was well produced and directed but they could have cut out some parts that didn't seem necessary to the movie.

I already knew that iMovie always you to edit how long each picture and how to edit videos.
