- New YAHOO CEO Marissa Mayer

Yahoo Buys Digital Ad Service BrightRoll for $640M

YAHOO is buying digital video advertising service BrightRoll for $640 million. The reason YAHOO takes over this company is construed as competing rivals such as Google, AOL and so on in the market of online video advertising. Google is running You Tube and  AOL took over Adap. TV last year.

.

YAHOO CEO Marissa Mayer expresses expectation that BrightRoll will make an enough profit related this buyout and she will turn over one hundred million dollars this year. YAHOO will keep on promoting take over other companies

In a situation online video advertising has been becoming larger and larger , it is estimated  this year’s the US market breadth grows 56% more than last year.  With 19% of the US market, You Tube is ranking first and using it is high in Korea. Once YAHOO entered Korea, but it has not grown highly. I wonder if what change will be and YAHOO will rank first in Online advertising market winning You Tube, after taking over BrightRoll.

Emma Watson - "he for she"

Emma Watson, a 24-year-old British actress, was appointed the new UN Women’s Goodwill Ambassador after some actresses who are well-known for serving as UN Goodwill Ambassador such as Nicole Kidman(UN Women Goodwill Ambassador), Angelina Jolie(UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador), and Charlize Theron(UN Messenger of Peace).

 
Emma gave her thoughts saying, “You might be thinking who is this Harry Potter girl? And what is she doing up on stage at the UN. It’s a good question and trust me I have been asking myself the same thing. I don’t know if I am qualified to be here. All I know is that I care about this problem. And I want to make it better. And having seen what I’ve seen—and given the chance—I feel it is my duty to say something.”

UN Women is an organization for gender equality and women’s empowerment.

 


The video clip below is about Emma Watson’s powerful speech at the UN Women’s Solidarity Movement, He For She.

 

 


She defined feminism by saying that “For the record, feminism by definition is the belief that men and women should have equal rights and opportunities. It is the theory of political, economic and social equality of the sexes.” Also, she said, “I am inviting you to step forward, to be seen to speak up, to be the "he" for "she". And to ask yourself if not me, who? If not now, when?”

Emma Watson emphasized that not only women’s rights but also men are the sacrifice of the socially conventional sexual division and asserted feminism is an issue for men too. She seemed to turn from a young heroin in Harry Potter into a complete woman.

 

I was so impressed by the sentence, “If not me, who? If not now, when?”

As a global village member today, I think it is time to have ownership of everything that happens in the world where we live.

3 types of good soccer balls that we’ve never seen before.

Sport is a fun game that everybody can enjoy regardless of his age or sex.  Soccer is very popular sport among them. When children gather, we can see them playing soccer easily. Playing soccer  is a very common sight in any country. So this time, I want to write an interesting story related to soccer balls.  It is about 3 types of good soccer balls which   are useful for people in trouble by good idea.

1. socket

 

















This soccer ball is famous because it was taken picture with president Obama of America. This good soccer ball Socket is designed for the people where live in the shortage of power.  If you kick the ball, then the electricity is charged.  The kinetic energy of soccer ball changed into the electric power energy, when they play with the ball, and the battery in the ball is charged. It seems amazing that you can read books with the lamp connected with the soccer ball after fun playing with the ball

2. football tape

This soccer ball is just tape, patterned soccer ball.  If you roll it, you can make a realistic soccer ball and the size can be controlled. You can make a soccer ball for children or a toy for puppies.  If you tape a bulk of box for relief goods, people can gather and collect  the tapes to make a big soccer ball. They can fill in with the tapes inside the ball and make it heavy or they wrap up outside the ball in order to make it strong.  Personally, I think if they combine dream ball project with soccer ball, then stronger ball can be made.  .

3. FUTBOL

This ball never blow up.  This soccer ball is made for donation.  It is made of non-toxic, inactive material.  It doesn’t need pump and never blow up.  Even upon the big impact, it restores to its original shapes.  That makes me extremely curious about its material and how it works. It is inspired by the children’s soccer play with waste in a refugee camp. One world Futbol Project is 1+1contribution project, that is,  if anyone buys 1 futbol, then one more futbol is given to the children through the non-profit organization. I heard that annually  20 million of soccer ball that broke out is piled up like a rubbish heap in Africa.  Futbol is a strong and permanent ball.  That is a good point to reduce waste.   I name it another good soccer ball!

How would they feel when a child smokes?

 

 

 

 

 smoking kid

adults know that smoking is harmful, but don't remind themselves of this fact.
how would they feel when a child smokes?

"Can i get a light?"
"Really?"
"No. you're too young."
"They drill a hole in your throat for cancer. Aren't you afraid of surgery?"
"Cigarettes contain poison."
"You look old when you smoke."
Every adult filmed reminded the children that smoking ie bad.
"If you smoke you die faster. Don't you want to live and play?"
"You know it's bad right? Smoking causes lung cancer and emphysema."
But did they forget something themselves?
"If it's so bad, why are you smoking?"

 -You worry about me. But why not about yourself? -

LEGO: Everything is NOT awesome

The earth is experiencing abnormal climate annually.  Due to climate change, the ice is reducing where polar bears inhabit. And polar bears are damaged by illegal poaching, oil-spill and excessive resources developments. In this situation, I recently heard the news from the environmental organization Greenpeace that the global oil company Shell is planning to explore oil on the North Pole in 2015.

To save the North Pole and polar bears, Greenpeace visited Lego Company headquarter which is headquartered  in Denmark and requested as follows.
“The toy company Lego, who gives dreams and hopes to children in the world, cooperate with international oil company Shell, is not good for image of Lego Company.  Shell takes advantage of Lego’s good image and try to cover the North Pole with dark oil.  Please carefully consider for lasting cooperation relationship with Shell.”
Upon the request of Greenpeace, while Lego is in a quandary, Greenpeace and fans of Lego launched a fantastic pincer operation to save the polar bear.

Below is the video titled `LEGO: Everything is NOT awesome’ on U-tube on 8th of July.
It is the video using by Lego toy showing how the nature will be destroyed, if oil-spill happens in the North Pole.  It shows the flag of Shell alone in the North Pole covered with dark oil. What else can we do in order to make the world where all people can co-exist and to save the animals on this planet?
It is time for our concern is needed.

Queen Elizabeth ii of English joins Twitter (Queen sent her first ever tweet)

Queen Elizabeth ii has sent her first tweet on a display table at the Science Museum in London during an information technology gallery opening on October 24th. A tweet containing her personal sign-off, Elizabeth R., was posted on the @BritishMonarchy account at 11:35 a.m. local time. R stands for Regina, or queen. "It is a pleasure to open the Information Age exhibition today at the @ScienceMuseum and I hope people will enjoy visiting. Elizabeth R," read the tweet, which has been retweeted at least 18,000 times as of Friday.

It is not rare that world leaders use SNS, however, those who ever have personal accounts officially in British Monarchy are only two Prince Andrew, Queen’s son, and his daughter Beatrice, so Queen’s tweet has been drawn attention by the public.
Also Queen Elizabeth ii had sent e-mail in 1976 when the term, Internet, was unfamiliar to people. This has known as what Head of the State sent e-mail firstly.
I am not sure if Queen Elizabeth ii will tweet consistently, but I think that celebrities use SNS is a good way it makes them become close with the public.
