Cooking in the danger zone: Chernobyl

http://www.bbc.com/travel/feature/20140116-cooking-in-the-danger-zone-chernobyl

This is a video from a serie of videos about a man who travels around the world discovering the different foods and cultures. In this one, the man goes to Chernobyl , in Ukraine, where the radiation reachs high levels that people are not allowed to eat aliments from a restricted zone beacuse they are contaminated . The man talks with people that live in side the forbidden radio , an old couple that have animals, fruit trees and plants and they live in a shack. They mustn't eat those aliments because of the radiation, but they say that they have been living there for 20 years eating that and they are perfectly sane. The man interview some experts and people living out of the danger zone too. Inhabitants think that there's no more danger because the catastrophe was a long time ago, but they still don't eat food from the interior of the danger limit.

This video has impacted me a lot. Is pretty sad to see all these abandoned places, all ruined, and I remember the catastrophe that happened there and really moves me. I would never eat food from inside the zone, that radiation is still there and it could have bad side effects that perjudice your health. I would never live there, is too dramatic and I wouldn't like to see that wrecked landscape everyday. 

STATUS UPDATE

http://vimeo.com/49262810

This is an awesome video about a man, Allan, who works on a really boring office . He is in love with one woman there, her name is Sam. One day her bosse orders him to stay more time in the office to finish the work. In that moment, he that was very angry with her, writes on Facebook "Iwish my bosses head would explode" and suddenly her bosses head explodes. Then he realises that everything that he puts on his status on facebook beacomes true. So he starts writing that he is rich, that he has won the lottery 5 times in a month , he mets very famous people... but one day he decides to get back to the office because he misses Sam. He gets a date with her on a desert island (because he has wrote on his status previously that they were going to have a date on a desert island ) . The evening is being great but when they decide to go to swim naked suddenly Allan's penis starts shining. That's because his work-mate is at the office writing on Allan's status  that he has a very shinning penis. 
That's a funny ending for the video.
I've liked a lot, I've  really enjoyed it and this is a very creative video which breaks the routine of the office world. I've enjoyed every single minute. I think that If I were in Allan's situation I would write that I have won the lottery like 5 or 6 times and then I would buy anything I could , and I think that I would never get back to work . I also think that I wouldn't play so much with Facebook status because I could get into troubles, just like Allan.

Dictation 8: SONS AND LOVERS

It's been such a horrible dictation that I've put here the hole dictation with the mistakes I've made. 

"After such a scene as the last, Walter Morel was for some days abashed and ashamed, but he soon regained his old bullying indifference. Yet there was a slight shrinking, a diminishing in his assurance. Physically even, he shrank, and his fine full presence waned. He never grew in the least stout, so that, as he sank from his erect, assertive bearing, his physique seemed to contract along with his pride and moral strength"
