There is a traditional holiday called Ghost Festival in Taiwan. It is really different from Halloween. Almost whole August is Ghost Festival. There are many ghosts that are released from hell. The ghosts will come to eat even they will find someone instead. My grandparents always ask me to leave away streams or ocean because old people believe the water ghosts are bad. It is a serious festival, we are not celebrating it happily. Recently, more and more people don't care about the legends. We still go to swim and travel in August. The Ghost Festival always let me scare and get a lot of stress when I was child. So I really hate this festival when I was young. I didn't go out because many activities which about Ghost Festival on the road. It was easy to make me think about ghosts. I had a lot of nightmare during this month. However Halloween seems a happy holiday though it is respect death. Adults and children can have fun in this day. So, I like Halloween more. But, there is one thing between these two holiday. Children also can get candy in the Ghost Festival. People want to give candy to the ghosts by this way. It is also a religious day when monk will help some of the ghost to be human again not to stay at hell forever. Those are different among Halloween and Ghost Festival.

Chicago City
The city I want to talk about contains the highest building in United States (US), which was the highest building in world before ten years ago. This city is Chicago in Illinois State, which is one of the biggest cities in US. There are three reasons why I recommend my friends or classmates to go to Chicago. First, there are a lot of museums in Chicago, such as science museum, historical museum, and art museum. It is really great idea to see many new things in those museums. Next, if you can go to the Aquarium, it is very useful because you can see all kinds of sea animals, for example, turtle, fish, and so on. This is the interesting thing I recommend to my classmates this term to go to, because it is related to our research paper topic. Finally, they can go to Millennium park; it is really wonderful. You can see different chaps in this park. There is something their like a big mirror ball, you can take a good photo to yourself. In conclusion, you should visit this city if you have not yet because you can see many museums, you can find your sea animals in the aquarium and you can have fun in Millennium Park. So , you should try to go there.

City I have visited
I have visited a couple of cities not including my hometown. Some of these towns are beautiful places and others are not so bad. Bangalore is the economical city in India. I visited this city in February 2006 when I was 17 years old. Bangalore is not a fantastic city, nor bad; there are some places that if you visit them you will say that it is clean and it is one of the developed cities. On other hand, you will say it is a very poor city and so dirty in other places. I like it because of some reasons. First, most people there can speak English, and I did not have much trouble about communication. Second, the living expenses there are not very expensive, and you can find a lot of places to enjoy yourself. There are many tourist places like museums, fairs and clubs, most of the common things you would like to be involved with. Third, I did not have troubles with food or meals because there are international restaurants and supermarkets from different countries. Thus, nothing will make you sad or homesick, because whatever you want you will find it. Finally, in this city I did not suffer anymore despite of my age; I got a lot of experience that helped me with how to deal with different kinds of people and how to behave and treat the older people.

Internet Shopping
Now people can shop from the Internet instead of going to the Mall. But the problem is that shopping from the Internet is more volatile that shopping at the Mall, so I would like to give some advice that can help the people care about their money more than they do. People should look at the websites and if they are fake or not before they put their Credit or Visa Card number in, because some of the hackers can make a fake page and use it for stealing people's Credit or Visa Card number and steal your money too. Also people should have a security program to block the strange websites and strange messages that can let the other people see your card information. Moreover, some of the people who shop from the internet do not go to the Malls and shop there, because they think the Internet stores are cheaper than the Malls, but my advice is that they have to compare the prices between the priced in the internet and the prices in the Malls, because sometimes the Malls have nice discounts for people. So if the prices are cheaper in the Mall, it is better to go and shop there more than the internet. Also when people shop from the internet they should put the right address and the right information in because people might lose their stuff if they are going to put in the wrong information. Finally, do not shop in front of somebody that you don't know very well, because he or she might steal the card number and use it.

Educated killer
The article “Faculty Return to Northern Illinois University for Training to Help Students Cope With Campus Shooting” talks about the campus shooting happened in Northern Illinois University. According to a witness, she reminded that it is on Thursday in the lecture hall. Minutes before the end of the class, a stranger walked onto the stage. He pointed the shotgun at the student sitting in front of him in the large lecture hall and pulled the trigger. Then he aimed to himself …On this urgency, he killed 5 persons one of whom is the witness`s boyfriend and many people got wounded. The tragedy happened so sudden and unpredictable that most of the students sitting there thought that the gunman was there to make an announcement.
I am interesting in the article because the campus shooting is very common in the U.S. and it seems to be a “trend”. Then the question is that how can this happened? And nobody felt something before the tragedy happened. Neither his teacher, nor his classmates. Next, if we find so trails before it happened what should we do? To answer the first question I think one reason is that the university is careless with the students psychological problems and another reason is that the U.S. government are remiss in their duties that they are responsible to supervise the public of buying guns. Thus campus shooting happened many times around the American schools, colleges and universities

Arrest made in Seoul landmark fire
According to the CNN.com article:
According to the Korean police, an incendiary who is over 60 years old is caught last tuesday by police. The criminal burned Namdaemoon, which is a Korean No.1 national treasure. the incendiary said that he had dissatisfaction against Korean government, so he planed on burning it since 2006. Also, he said that he choose Namdaemoon because it is easy to get there, and there is no one to protect it. The police found some of tools to commit arson in his house through his wife's confession. Namdaemoon is sort of essential of Korea that it has been over 600years.
After I read this article, I felt something like unpleasant. How could it happen? The first Korean national treasure can destroied by one person who is an old guy, moreover, the government left it unsafely. Maybe it was just arson but Korean be burned their heart by one homeless old guy. The motive of arson is just dissatisfation of Korean government. In my opinion,however,people who are one member of a country have to have resposibilities about what is important and right thing in own country and society.

Valentine's Day brings out hard-liners, confectionary critters
I found this article from CNN. As you read this article, it is about various Valentine's Day's celebration in all of the world. The day of Valentine is begin as essential Christian holiday but nowadays, it is celebrated the world over.
In Japan's case, February 14 is a day when women buy gifts for their men. And they want to give some special chocolate for their men like bugs shape. In Korea, there are lots of chocolate from china because it is cheaper than other maker. Saudi Arabia has banned any celebration about Valentine's days because of religious reason. There is interesting research about Valentine's days in America. About eight million Americans have sent themselves a gift on Valentine's Day.
Many people who want to protect tradition value from "westernization" argue that Valentine's day is just worked for confectioner and destroy traditional custom.
When I read this article, I really interested in this issue because I have a romantic memory about Valentine's day. Not only me but also someone else who have spent Valentine's day with his(her) lover have some special memory about that. Even if I have good memory about Valentine's day, I worried about it because Valentine's day is too commercialism. Valentine's day is for lover but they worried about money for present. And some people are concerned about destroy of tradition value. So I would like to talk about whether Valentine's day is good or not.

Debate about the death penalty-lethal injection
I found this article from MSNBC site (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/22650019)
As you can see this article is about lethal injection, the one method of the death penalty. Kentucky death row inmate Ralph Baze, who was convicted of killing a Powell County sheriff and deputy say the three drugs used by Kentucky for execution are far too complex, and that they violate his constitutional right against cruel and unusual punishment. (the Bill of Right : Amendments to the Constitution 8)
Baze bring an suit about this to the U.S. Supreme Court.
and the Supreme Court review this problem now.
I think If the Supreme Court decide that Lethal Injection is violated The Right of Freedom From the cruel and unusual punishment, It means abolition of the death penalty without adopting less painful methods than lethal injection.
but In my experience, the death penalty is necessary to preventing crimes, social security etc.
