Tony Curtis was a huge Holwood star. He was in over 100 films. He is popular for being in "The Defiant Ones" and for being Houdini. "My father leaves behind a legacy of great performances in movies and in his paintings and assemblages," his daughter actress Jamie Lee Curtis said in a statement. "He leaves behind children and their families who loved him and respected him and a wife and in-laws who were devoted to him. He also leaves behind fans all over the world." He died today at the age of 85. He was a great actor.
Tony Curtis's real name was Bernard Schwartz. His parents were Hungarian Jewish.Hungarian was Curtis's only language until he was five or six.His father was a tailor and their family lived in the back of the shop. His mother had made one appearance on a television show called "You Bet Your Life". Curtis said, "When I was a child, Mom beat me up and was very aggressive and antagonistic." His mother had a mental disease called schizophrenia. The disease also effected his Brother, Robert.
He did both screen comedy and drama together and became the most sought after star in Hollywood. He appeared often on television shows. He was mostly in movies. In the early 1960s, he was immortalized as "Stony Curtis," a voice-over guest star on The Flintstones. I saw the episode of The Flinstones that he was in. It was a really good episode.
Throughout his life, Curtis enjoyed painting, and since the early 1980s, painted as a second career. His work commands more than $25,000 a canvas now. In the last years of his life, he concentrated on painting rather than movies. He said "I still make movies,but I'm not that interested in them anymore. But I paint all the time." In 2007, his painting The Red Table was on display in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. His paintings can also be seen at the Tony Vanderploeg Gallery in Carmel, California.
He got married six times. His first wife was actress Janet Leigh,with whom he fathered actresses Kelly and Jamie Lee Curtis. He divorced Leigh in 1962 to marry Christine Kaufmann, the 17-year-old German co-star of his latest film, Taras Bulba. He stated, however, that his marriage with Leigh had effectively ended "a year earlier". In 1963 Curtis married Kaufmann. They had two daughters, Alexandra and Allegra. They divorced in 1968. Kaufmann resumed her career, which she had interrupted during her marriage.

Blog Assignment #15: Africa/Storytelling
The first video I watched was about Khardiata Dia. She is a girl who lives in Africa. She sweeps her front porch after school every day. She then goes to walk in the fields. There are animals there who keep her company. Then she likes to look at the trees. The trees she looks at are Baobab trees. They can live for hundreds of years.
She is a calm girl. She does normal things. The video was beautiful. I loved how she showed the horses and other animals who keep her company. She isn't very rich. She is a beautiful young. That is all about the video.
The next video I watched was about Cheikh Dia. He is a young boy. He created a montage of his typical Sunday. He first wakes up. Then he prays. He then goes out to the fields and plays with his friends. Then he helps his older brother with homework. At the end of the day his him and his family enjoy a quiet evening while they drink tea.
He studies alot. He prays everyday. He reads his Bible. He plays with his friends. He eats with his family. He is just a regular boy. He lives in Africa. He isn't rich. In Africa they sleep with nets around their beds so the don't get bitten by mosquitos.
The last video I watched was about Aldiouma Dia's mother taking milk from the cows and preparing it to be sold. Her mom gets the milk from the cows. She then takes the butter off the top of the milk. Then she stirrs the milk to make it drinkable.Her mom then puts in a little bit of sugar to make it taste good.
Her cows are very important to her village. She lives in a village in Africa. She isn't a rich girl. She is very young. She might be 7 or 8. She isn't that tall. She is beautiful. She has an important role in her village because she owns the cows.

Blog Assignment #14: Media
I Think the media is a bad thing that people use. I looked up two stories where I think the media crossed the line. The two stories were about Vanessa Anne Hudgens and Lindsy Lohan. The media doesn't care about privacy at all. The media outlets are accountable for putting the things on the web. They are not responsible for the celebrities behavior though. Privacy needs to be respected and the media doesn't respect that. I say we live in a media frenzied world. It is horrible.
I think they should not let those stars act that way. It is disgusting what they do. They need to be more Christ like. They need to know when to stop. I find It terrible. I used to look up to Vanessa Anne Hudgens ,but after I learned what she did I felt she was one of the worst people I knew of. She is a good actress ,but she needs to get herself together.
I think the stars should be punished for what they do. I know God will punish them once they die ,but they should be punished so they know what they did wrong. They should know better. Some of these people are grown. They are probably in their 30's so they need to grow up. I think they should be able to fix what they have done. the problem with celebrities is that they think they are better than everyone else so they can do whatever they want. They can't do that just because they are famous. It is outrageous!
Lindsy Lohan had a good life. She could have done much better. She is in jail now. She has gone to jail for who knows how many times. Her career was interrupted in 2007 as two driving under the influence (DUI) incidents and three visits to drug rehabilitation facilities led to several lost movie deals. Resuming her career, she guest starred in the TV series Ugly Betty in 2008, starred in the 2009 comedy Labor Pains, and appeared in Robert Rodriguez's Machete in 2010.She has attracted significant publicity, particularly surrounding her personal life. She needs to go with her career and stop sharing her personal life. She needs to get a clue just like the movie she starred in Get A Clue.
I wish stars would figure out what they did wrong. They need someone to tell them about Christ. I wish that someone would find a way to tell them about Christ. I hope they will follow the plan God has for them eventually. It would help their lives so much. I wish they could remember what it is like to not be a star so they could possibly have better lives. It would help because they would be better role models.

Blog Assignment #13: Declaration of Independence
In the Declaration of Independence it says "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."We all have certain rights and we all are created equal. The Declaration of Independence says that governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive of the ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to destroy it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them it might seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. To protect the core values the citizens have to follow the laws and live by the Declaration of Independence.They are all important because they help us keep ourselves together. We stay a free independent press by following the laws. If we follow the laws, we can't get taken over like many societies. The core values of the Declaration of Independence are all men being equal and all have certain rights. There are more core values, but these are the most important. The values help drive our government by helping us to stay on track and not becoming a government where we aren't free.The responsibilities of the core values that producer of information and their fellow citizens have when distributing information are they need to get to the point, they need to be nice about it, and they need to be polite. We all need to follow the Declaration of Independence.

Blog Assignment #12-M.Antoinette
Marie Antoinette was the Queen of France, and ever since the revolutionaries wanted to get rid of their monarchs to start a republic, vicious rumours had spread about her and she was seen as the cause of the great dept the country was in, the revolutionaries therefore decided not only to kill the King of France, but also his wife, Marie Antoinette. Not only that, but she was extremely vicious towards peasants and third estate-men. She said that if they were having troubles, "let them eat cake!" which basically meant she didn't really care about their situation money wise or didn't know about it.
Marie Antoinette was the Queen of France during the French Revolution. Was resented by the French citizens for her foreign birth and extravagant lifestyle, Marie has gone down in history as the arrogant monarch who, when told the peasants were starving because they had no bread, said "let them eat cake." Marie was known to have been a wild spender as a young queen. The daughter of Francis I and Maria Theresa, Emperor and Empress of the Holy Roman Empire, Marie left Austria for France in 1770 to marry the prince of France. In 1774 the prince became King Louis XVI and Marie became queen. As revolution swept Paris in 1789, the king and queen tried to flee but failed. Marie and Louis XVI were stuck as prisoners at the palace at Tuileries. Failing to get help from royal supporters in England, Prussia ,and Austria they were arrested and charged with treason in 1792. Louis was beheaded on January 21, 1793 and Marie was beheaded months later, on 16 October 1793.
Some of Marie Antoinette's Quotes are I was a queen, and you took away my crown; a wife, and you killed my husband; a mother, and you deprived me of my children. My blood alone remains: take it, but do not make me suffer long., Let them eat cake, and I have seen all, I have heard all, I have forgotten all. I think her life was hard. It had its ups and downs. She was a good person at the younger age ,but as she got older she got meaner. I think she could have lived a better life. She chose to live the life that she lived so she got beheaded. I wouldn't of beheaded her though. I think that is gross. I just would have taken her crown away and I would give it to someone who deserves it.

Blog Assignment #10-G.Muller
George Muller
George Muller was a Christian evangelist and Director of the Ashley Down orphanage in Bristol, England, cared for 10,024 orphans in his life. He was well-known for providing an education to the children under his care, to the point where he was accused of raising the poor above their natural station in life. He also established 117 schools which offered Christian education to over 120,000 children, many of them being orphans. He was important in history because he and his wife helped with orphans. He did many things in his life people admire. He was a great Christian man.
Some of his quotes were "A servant of God has but one Master." ,“I hope in God, I pray on, and look yet for the answer. They are not converted yet, but they will be.”, and “If honest of heart and uprightness before God were lacking or if I did not patiently wait on God for instruction, or if I preferred the counsel of my fellow-men to the declarations of the Word of God, I made great mistakes". I think he was a great man. He helped orphans. He was a Christian. He provided education. All these things are what God wants in a person.
I think he did all the things he needed to do. I hope God blessed him for doing everything. He was a bad child ,but when he grew up he became better and better. Soon enough he was a Christian. Once he asked God to forgive him and to bless him he immediately stopped drinking and gambling and doing everything else he wasn't so posted to do. He was a better person. That is why people admire him today.

Blog Assignment #9 /Current Broadway Musicals
There are many musicals currently playing on Broadway. Some of the musicals that are playing are The Lion King, Wicked, Mamma Mia, Mary Poppins, and Elf. These are some of the many you might be familiar with. Out of the five currently playing musicals I have listed I have to say I have only seen one of them. It was the most spectacular show you could see. I saw Wicked. It was a awesome show. All of these are shows I would like to see. I even want to see Wicked again.
The Lion King was the first musical I listed. I think it will be a great show. I saw the previews on Disney channel. I also researched it. according to all my research The Lion King continues to amaze, with astounding visuals that will make this a show you'll remember forever. Marvel at the breathtaking spectacle of animals brought to life by an enormous company of international performers, whose detailed costumes, carved masks, and intricate makeup will transport you to the gorgeous vistas of the African savanna.Based on the 1994 Disney animated film, The Lion King continues to reign as one of the most popular shows on Broadway and around the world. The global phenomenon is the winner of more than 70 major awards worldwide, including the Tony Award for Best Musical, and the Grammy for Best Musical Show Album.
Wicked's cast is Mandy Gonzalez as Elphaba ( later the wicked witch of the west ), Katie Rose Clarke as Glinda, Andy Karl as Fiyero, P.J. Benjamin as the Wizard, Kathy Fitzgerald as Madame Morrible, Alex Brightman as Boq, Timothy Britten Parker as Doctor Dillamond, and Jenny Fellner as Nessarose. It is a great story about how the wicked with of the west used to be good. She finds out that the wizard is her father. She is basically trying to help her sister Nessarose (the wicked witch of the east). Nessarose is in love with Boq (one of the munchkins that went to her school). She later accidentally almost kills Boq so Elphaba has to turn him into the tin man. Elphaba Has to save the cowardly lion. her boyfriend Fiyero gets turned into the scarecrow somehow. it was a great play.

She is basically trying to help her sister Nessarose (the wicked witch of the east). Nessarose is in love with Boq (one of the munchkins that went to her school). She later accidentally almost kills Boq so Elphaba has to turn him into the tin man. Elphaba Has to save the cowardly lion. her boyfriend Fiyero gets turned into the scarecrow somehow. it was a great play.
| Mamma Mia is currently playing on Broadway. it it a fun play to watch. I haven't seen it ,but i saw the movie. I would love to do a play so fun. It has great music. I love the story of Sophie wanting to find her dad. She ends up with four dads. She knows her mom loves on eof the men. Who at the end of the play marries her mom. She is so happy that her mom doesn't have to die alone. Mary Poppins is the story of the Banks family who live in a big house in London on Cherry Lane. Things are not going well for the family, the children, Jane and Michael, are out of control and are in need of a new nanny. Jane and Michael have their own ideas about what sort of caretaker they should have, while their parents—and in particular Mr. Banks—are insistent on someone strict for the job. When a mysterious young woman named Mary Poppins appears at their doorstep, the family finds that she’s the answer to their prayers, but in the most peculiar way. Mary Poppins takes the children on many magical and memorable adventures, but Jane and Michael aren’t the only ones she has a profound effect upon. Even grown-ups can learn a lesson or two from the nanny who advises that “anything can happen if you let it.” Elf is much like the popular film of the same name, Elf follows the adventure of a young man named Buddy who grew up at the North Pole believing he is one of Santa's Christmas elves. When his adoptive father reveals he is actually human, Buddy heads to New York City to find his real family. It is a heart warming story.  |
