Ted Tak

The episode of ted talk that i watched was about the Mr.Condom saving Thailand from becoming over populated i believe. It had become so tremendously over populated they had to formulate a problem solver and they resulted to birth control in all its forms. The most interesting part about the birth control method to me was that they got everyone involved. From school teacherrs to board games, etc, giving examples such as with alphabet games that P was for pills C was for condoms etc. Also with the board games you would select a card iam guessing and it would tell you how many spaces to move based upon what you have selected. Such as if you select that mom takes birth control every night you would get to move spaces ahead, in comparison to if you select that your uncle get drunk and doesnt where a condom you have to go back to start. Another interesting part of this episode was that there were people blessing the condoms and pills so that they can properly work without side affects. Children in school begin to blow condoms up taking pictures and the slogan became "A condom is a girls best friend". This episode made the awareness of condoms into a fun activity for the whole city and as they should, the condoms worked and took the population down. In 1974 there was 7 children for a family 3.3% where as in 200 it took it down to 1.5 children 0.5%.So it shows the resolver they choose was the right decision for Thailand.

My thoughts on the film Persona

Over all the film was interesting to watch, but I think I would appreciate the film more without words. Only because the motion in the film and the interaction of the two characters in the movie told a story by themselves and listening to what they were saying was a little odd. The dialogue between the two ladies, even though one didn’t talk was strange. It never continue about the same topic, it always jumped back and forth.

                Now to start from beginning to end speaking on the things I did and didn’t like. When the movie first came on my first reaction was “what the hell”. There was a nail being hammered into someone’s hand and then a small skit was being performed, here we have an actress who decides on her own to become a mute and last but never least a young nurse. All this information thrown onto the viewer within the first 10 minutes of the movie. From that moment on I knew the movie wasn’t going to be in sequence, but strangely it started to act as normal movie that I am use to. The story line begins to unfold, or what I thought was the story then towards the last 30 minutes of the movie chaos. The nurse finds out in some sense the lady of which she has been helping has used her as a study. At this point of the movie I thought the lady would begin to talk, I was wrong the two start to fight in strange ways that confused. To be specific when the nurse cuts herself, and the lady drinks her blood, I’m not quite sure how to take that. Another confusing moment when the two ladies decide I am guessing to pack up and leave the movie ends with only the nurse leaving. So what happened to the other lady?

                This movie was so much more then confusing; it basically had no structure to me of what a traditional movie I’ve seen would have. But I digress and can admit even though there were wacky moments there were some scenes of the movie that I enjoyed a lot. But I wish there was a moral to this story so that the two can come together and not only be visually appealing.
