When
Andrew
Kaplan
recalls,
his
stories
leave
the
impression
that
he
has
managed
to
pack
multiple
lives
into
a
single existence:
A
war reporter
in
his
20s.
an
army
member,
a
successful
businessman and-
later. the author of numerous spy novels and
Hollywood scripts.
Now
the silver haired 78-year old has realized he
would like his loved ones to have access to
those
stories,
even
when
he
is
no

according to plan future generations will be able
to interact with him
using voice
computing platforms of mobile devices,
asking him questions, letting him tell stories and
drawing
upon a lifetime's worth of
advice long after his physical body is
gone.
Someday, Kaplan,
who playfully refers to himself as a pig, may be
remembered as one of the
world's first
digital humans.
For
decades, Silicon Valley futurists have sought to
free humanity from the life cycle. Today, a
new generation of companies is selling
some approximation(
近似
) of
virtual immortality, which
gives people
the opportunity to preserve one's
legacy(
遗产
) online
forever.
Kaplan is eager
to become one of the world's first virtual
residents, partly because he considers
the effort a way to extend closed
family bonds over multiple generations.
If technology succeeds in creating
emotionally intelligent digital humans, experts
say, it may
forever change the way
living people cooperate with computers and

I stood in a noisy group of sixth
grade students, waiting for the answer to our
burning question:
What type of crazy
tie would Mr. Miller be wearing today?
Our
teacher
walked
around
the
comer
with
a
GREEN
ELEPHANT
TIE
that
matched
his
large
elephant coffee cup! Oh, the
satisfaction in our young
hearts
—
a green elephant
tie!
With his
glasses at the tip of his nose, he greeted us
cheerfully, “Good morning, folks!” He was
strange and unique and he brightened
every day for us. He was the most dynamic teacher
I had
ever met.
I loved music, so I remember how excited I was
when he said he was going to give us music
lessons. But when he turned on the
music, my classmates and I slowly turned our heads
toward
the sound of… Feter Paul and
Mary singing “If I Had a Hammer”.
Snickers
(窃笑)
filled the room.
If it wasn't rap or hip hop, we didn't recognize
it. What were
these people singing
about? My classmates were not into this at all.
But for me, a girl of 12, it was
a
discovery. An awakening.
Twenty years passed and now there are forty little
eyes staring at my wild musical-note shirts
as I greet them with a joyful, “Good
morning, class!” I wonder if my students wait and
wonder
what crazy music
clothes I will wear each day.
I glance at my 2015 Teacher of the
Year Award, which I received for being a dynamic
teacher
And I smile to myself,
wondering which child in front of me will carry
this on
-
as I've carried on
the legacy

Mr. Miller.
One
teacher,
who

Our mother earth is going through a
very tough situation and we, the entire human
race, are
destroying our environment or
unconsciously without even realizing its
consequences. Now we
have to act very
smartly and plan something to sustain what we
still have, getting all necessary
support from nature to lead healthy
lives.
Gardening
is
always
an
excellent
and
environmentally
friendly
idea.
If
you
can
go
for
sustainable gardening, then it will be
even more useful for all. Gardening is a favorite
hobby for
many. It is time to
channelize your hobby towards a more meaningful
motivation.
When we do
gardening we need to use different ingredients to
grow plants. Some of them are
natural
resources
like
water,
soil,
sunshine,
and
many
things
like
this.
Using
these
resources
smartly is a part
of sustainable gardening. Some simple techniques
include: use less water and
organic
things to grow plants; try to store rainwater so
that you can use them for gardening; try
using
less
energy
to
drive
devices;
avoid
using
plastics
in
any
form
while
gardening;
reuse
the
leaves from your garden
to fertilize them. These are the basic sustainable
measures. To do so we
need to have
proper knowledge about gardening and its
requirements so that we can use proper
resources without wasting any of
them.
In today's busy
life we don't get much time to spend on our
environment. Gardening gives us a
chance to do so. We can also have some
pesticide-free and fresh food if we grow them in
our
garden. This is the right time to
do some good to protect our own environment and
gardening is
one of the easiest ways.

A British
company is doing something with parking spaces.
JustPark's founder, Anthony Eskinazi,
says,“When I had the original idea,
Ispotted a driveway close to a sports stadium. It
would have
been
so
convenient
if
I
could
have
just
parked
in
that
driveway
rather
than
in
commercial
car
park.” And he has a big
clientele
(客户)
:around 20,000
people have advertised their spaces on
the site, and he says around half a
million drivers use it. There are other sites
doing very similar
things,
like
Uber
and
Lyft---these
let
drivers
share
their
cars
with
other
passengers.

.A
church
near
Kings
Cross
in
central
London
has
apparently made over
£200,000 by renting out space in its yard to
travelers!
Because this
is a new business world, those rules aren't there
yet and many people are happy
to
share...as long as it pays!
But the sharing economy has its critics: the
competitors of these new companies. People who
run things like traditional B&B,
commercial car parks and taxi services are afraid
of ending up out
of pocket. And there
is another issue: regulations on these new
business are unclear. How will
renting
out your driveway affect your neighbor?

Taking on the task of producing a
short movie might seem like an impossible feat,
but
if you
can assemble a
good team and if you break down each stage of
production into small blocks of
tasks,
you'll come to realize that producing a small-
scale movie isn't too bad. Just follow these
steps and you'll be on your way to
Kevin Smith-like fame in no time.
Assemble a production crew. If you
run out of friends or people you can get to work
for screen
credit, offer people
“points”, which is a percentage of the movie
profits.
Get
a

You
need
someone
who

a

to
make
the movie come out right. Local film schools are
the best place to find them.
Assemble the props and costumes.
Costume shops and local theater groups can
definitely help
you here. But you can
also borrow from friends and family or check out
thrift stores for bargains.
Choose filming locations. Make sure you have
permission from the owners of the property you
choose to film on.
Get the film processed. Find the
right processor with the help of your director of
photography.
You may need to send the
film to Los Angeles for this.
Edit the film. You need to find
someone who can transfer your film to video and
arrange the
completed scenes in the
right order. You can likely find one in the same
place as your director of
photography,
Obviously, this is just a basic
overview
—
the thing about
producing a short independent movie
is
that the whole process is unpredictable. You can
only set yourself up for the basics, but as long
as you know things will go wrong every
