BOLLYWOOD

Do you know Bollywood?

One of the biggest film industries in the world is not as famous as Hollywood.

Bollywood is the connection between the most well known American film industry Hollywood and the name of the city of Mumbai. If you want take a look at the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mumbai.

The movies are big productions, with special effects and a lot of dancing. Usually the story is about Indian culture, but some of them show American culture as well. Recent shown at Record television the movie "The Guru" is one example of Bollywood Movies. Take a look http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zImEEGd4i7s.

If you study with the Interchange Third Edition coursebook, take a look in the book 3B unit 14 page 97 , there you can find an article about this Film Industry!

Hope you like it!

Developing a good Project!

Hello my friends,
I would like to share with all of you that I'm thinking about developing a project with a friend of mine, a north american friend who lives in Alabama, USA.
We are thinking about making a blog or site, where we could have native speakers of Portuguese and English, we would teach by videos and audios...
We are trying to do this, if we succeed, you are gonna have one more place to practice and improve your English and Portuguese!
I hope you like the idea!
See y'all!!!!!

Dalai Lama-Words of Wisdom!

People, I'm back to leave a message for all of you!!!
I really love to read Dalai Lama, and I got one of his texts to show for y'all!!!
I hope you like!!

"We have bigger houses
and smaller families;
more convenience, but less time.

We have degrees, but less sense;
more knowledge, but less judgement;
more experts, but more problems;
more medicine, but less healthiness.

We have been all the way to
the moon and back, but have trouble
crossing the street to
meet the new neighbour.

We built more computers to hold more information
to produce more copies than ever,
but have less communication.

We have become long on quantity,
but short on quality.

These are times of fast foods,
and slow digestion;
tall man and short character;
steep profits, and shallow relationships.

It is a time when there is much in the window,
and nothing in the room."

- The XIVth Dalai Lama
