Tornado in Alabama

Just a few days ago, my mother called me again and again through my Chinese phone, but I did not turn on the phone, when I contact her, she asked me if I am OK right now, at that time, I realized that this tornado is really serious, and she told me she watched the TV news and it is reported that the people in Alabama, especially in South Alabama, has went through a tough time due to the tornado.

 On that evening when tornado occurred, I do not know it was heavy raining and wind outside; I was really tired on that evening, we are asked to get together in the lobby of dorm. I was still sleep until my friend called me to go outside. When I came out, I saw a lot of people were sitting on the floor and one of girl in the lobby was crying. At that moment, I did not realize that how serious it is, before I came here, I never came cross such thing. However, this event has attracted many attentions from the world. The Alabama state has been focused by many people.

I am really sad about that, many people was missing and have not found yet. But I am grateful for the people who donate their stuff to the serious place. I know one of the places has been damaged a lot, I hope everything and everyone is ok right now, and the places are restored as soon as possible.

The multimedia gets us better and worse

Multimedia is media and content that uses a combination of different content forms. Multimedia is usually recorded and played, displayed or accessed by information content processing devices, such as computerized and electronic devices, but can also be part of a live performance. Multimedia also describes electronic media devices used to store and experience multimedia content. Multimedia is distinguished from mixed media in fine art.

The term "rich media" is synonymous for interactive multimedia. Hypermedia can be considered one particular multimedia application. In addition; multimedia is heavily used in the entertainment industry, especially to develop special effects in movies and TV program. In here, I would like to talk about TV and movies which belong to multimedia.

The multimedia provides people more entertainment, so multimedia can provide entertainment function in the media. This function on a societal level, media work in these ways to maintain the society. Such as special TV program and films. Let’s talk about movies first. Movies take a vital position in the multimedia; people may be influenced by the movie characters, thus, they may produce misleading to the people. others can encourage people to pursue what they want in life, or give people more confidence towards life or job, even relationship between society and themselves.
