Mad Hatterz

The term ‘mad as a hatter’ derives from the fact that mercury was originally used in the making of hats. This was known to have affected the nervous systems of hatters, causing them to tremble and appear insane.

Back in time



I made this in college a few years ago now for our film project. Kim is the 'actress', the film was made by taking photographs and layering them into photoshop on jpegs. Over 100 frames and only about 20 seconds long!!

Was good fun though ^^*

13 Reasons - Hannah



Found this as one of Grey's projects on their website



Another way YouTube is so perfect for this generation, the quick linking, spreading. Totally utilising it to it's full potential. Can't really argue with #3 on New York Times best sellers...

Such a sad topic, though.

Binge | VCCP

Takes you to the Agency VCCP's site to do with Binge Drinking. I'm writing an essay on it at the moment and am finding it very interesting!

How to stop teens from binge drinking, having unprotected sex, taking drugs...

Impossible!?

I think not!

Why the British hate the Winter Olympics, is not a worthy article.

This is a return to the article written in my University paper

There is something about watching the Winter Olympics which can make your heart jump up into your throat, sure maybe part of it is the schadenfreude, but I’m positive those who watch it for the skill and dedication of the athletes will tell you otherwise.
Enough to make rooms of people sit around their televisions at three in the morning to watch the live action, or get up at the crack of dawn to catch up online.
Maybe it’s because these sports aren’t just about the big game, it’s the training and precise science of friction of a ‘tray’, your only protection being that crash helmet some may dismiss.
Most of you would assume Milton Keynes may not be the best place to excel at Alpine skiing, but it’s one of the best places to start. There is no substitute for the breath taking views you experience on the piste, but what’s the point of being at the top if you don’t know how to get down?
The Snow Leopard from Ghana (Kwame Nkrumah-Acheampong) who began on Milton Keynes came 54th in the men’s slalom, not bad for someone who has only been training for 6 years, and had to move away from his home and country to do so.
Not unlike our own national superstar Michael Edwards in 1988. He was the only British Competitor in his field, and took what he loved as far as he could go. When asked about his fear of jumping “Of course I was. There was always a chance that my next jump could be my last”. He was mentioned in the closing ceremony "At this Games, some competitors have won gold, some have broken records, and some of you have even soared like an eagle." At that moment, 100,000 people in the stadium roared "Eddie! Eddie!" A hero.
Only 19 countries held Gold medals this year (regardless of how many each country held) Great Britain was one of them.
This lack of bling doesn’t mean that we can’t enjoy watching these events, though. How many of us get excited about the Football World Cup, even though our last win was 44 years ago. It’s about cheering on our nation to do something great, be a part of a sporting community, no matter how little of it you know about – but never let the truth get in the way of an amusing story.
