JUSTIN LONG AS THE VOICE OF A LEADER IN “WALKING WITH DINOSAURS: THE 3D MOVIE”


JUSTIN LONG AS THE VOICE OF A LEADER IN 
“WALKING WITH DINOSAURS: THE 3D MOVIE”

Directed by Neil Nightingale and Barry Cook, “Walking with Dinosaurs: The 3D Movie” was inspired by the very latest discoveries in paleontology as well as technological breakthroughs. It presents audiences with the most realistic depiction of dinosaurs ever seen.  A compelling family adventure and coming of age story, “Walking with Dinosaurs” tells the story of Patchi (voiced by Justin Long), a determined little Pachyrhinosaurus with a hole in his frill, who sets off with his family on a journey of survival.
               
The film blends a gripping adventure with a story about family and friendship.  Patchi encounters the lovely Juniper, a female Pachyrhinosaurus from another herd and there is an immediate connection, which develops into a close bond. But it is unlikely that the pair will be able to stay together because of herd protocol, which means that Juniper won’t be able to choose her own mate. Other fascinating creatures in the film include pterosaurs, gigantic flying reptiles that once soared through Earth’s skies, and Edmontosaurus, huge duck billed dinosaurs.

Sean Penn in Ben Stiller's "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty"


OSCAR WINNER SEAN PENN: A PHOTOGRAPHER AT THE ENDS OF THE EARTH IN “THE SECRET LIFE OF WALTER MITTY”

Ben Stiller’s reimagining of James Thurber’s original story is highly entertaining and inspiring, revolving around a man who loves to daydream, frequently retreating into an imaginary world in which he is the hero.   A photo editor at LIFE Magazine in New York, he enjoys his job but longs for passion and excitement.  As he was about to lose his job as the company shifts and downsizes, Mitty finds himself out of his office in no time.  The final issue of the prestigious magazine will soon be on newsstands, but a worried MItty cannot find an important negative that has mysteriously gone missing.

The picture was taken by the iconic and elusive photographer Sean O’Connell played by Sean Penn. Sean is the only one who knows where it is. But where is Sean?  

For all his fantasies of becoming a hero, Walter Mitty has his own very real hero:  the famed LIFE photographer Sean O’Connell, an elusive adventurer who has become a kind of rock star of the photographic world, renowned for his relentless commitment to chasing a story no matter the cost.

Adidas unveils lightest ever National Team Kits to inspire "All in or nothing" performance at Brazil 2014


New national kits inspired by pride, passion and the vision of next generation football fans Federation kits 40% lighter than any previous adidas kit Herzogenaurach.

Adidas launched the 2014 FIFA World Cup kits of seven leading national football federations, encouraging fans to “show your colours or fade away”.   The kits of Argentina, Colombia, Germany, Japan, Mexico, Russia and Spain have been unveiled with technological advances, producing the lightest kits adidas has ever created. The players’ uniforms will also feature eye-catching designs, inspired by the next generation of football fans.

The national kits have been created using adizero technology, producing lighter kits and an improved fit, enabling players to be faster and more comfortable on the pitch.

The 2014 FIFA World Cup federation kits are over 40% lighter than equivalent 2012 kits, weighing in as the lightest kits ever produced by adidas. Due to technological advances weight has been removed from the main jersey, collars and sleeve cuffs, as well as the national federation crests and even the iconic adidas three stripes. The shorts are now also made with a new woven lightweight fabric for increased breathability and a lighter waistband.  These innovations will give the world’s best players extra freedom of movement and comfort, while retaining resilience and durability on pitch in Brazil.

The design of the kits are based on interviews with the next generation of each nation, with adidas asking young people to express what made them proud of their country. This feedback gave strong feelings of national pride, history and hope, which were in turn translated into stunning kit designs, set to ignite the patriotism and passion of each country. The process was mirrored across each federation, creating seven individual stories and design themes; from the inspirational feats of Russian cosmonauts in the 1960s, to Mexican artistry and the independence of Argentina.

Team Members of Aboitiz Group initiate a Wall of Hope for Super Typhoon Yolanda Survivors

Aboitiz Group initiate 
a Wall of Hope for Yolanda Survivors

Team members at the Aboitiz Group’s Manila Headquarters have decided to send more than relief goods to survivors of super typhoon Yolanda. They have set up a “Wall of Hope” to encourage and inspire the survivors who are still trying to recover and start anew.

Beginning last November 13, everyone who goes to the cafeteria is greeted by a wall filled with colorful envelopes where they could insert a note of hope and encouragement for a typhoon survivor.  


Each time the wall is filled up with notes, the envelopes are gathered and sent to the command center in Cebu, where they are inserted inside relief packs that are distributed to the survivors.  A looped video beside the wall also shows photos of the destruction in Northern Cebu and Leyte , as well as ways that team members can help- whether by donating in cash or in kind, or by volunteering.
