Most of the Thais wept while others prayed for the king who ruled over Thailand for 70 years, most people having never known another monarch in their lifetime.


People took the king’s body to the Grand Palace where it will lie in the temple as people pay respects.

BOND'S DAY OF THE DEAD

This year of Mexico's traditional Day of the Dead was given a new twist, as the parade was inspired by James Bond’s “Spectre”.

The government called the parade part of a new multifaceted campaign aiming to bring more tourists to Mexico during the holiday. As tens of thousands of people crowded to watch the skeletons, traditional dancers, and musical groups, it seems to have worked.

Fused with the Catholic festivals of All Saints’ Day and All Souls’ Day, the Day of the Dead is one of the most deep-rooted traditions in Mexico. Millions celebrate it, and they traditionally set up altars with photographs of the dead, gather at their loved ones’ gravesides, drink, sing and talk to the dead.

SUMMARY

This year in Mexico in the traditional celebrations of the dead were inspired by James Bond.The Mexican government called for new partners in organizing the parade of James Bond.

EAR ON THE ARM

A Chinese man lost an ear during a tragic car accident and ever since felt incomplete. Doctors in the city of Xi'an are trying to change that.

To begin the pioneering procedure, they took cartilage from Mr Ji’s ribs and then cut the cartilage into the shape of an ear. Subsequently, they implanted the cartilage under the skin of the man’s forearm, which was perhaps the most complicated and dangerous step but it was a success.

The artificial ear now needs to grow for at least another three months before the final surgery when it will be transplanted onto his head.


Mr Ji has gone through many operations since his accident, not only for his ear, but also for his skin and cheeks. He hopes that the operations will eventually bring him back a normal life.

FILM REVIEW

JACK REACHER

One of my favourite movies is Jack Reacher. It's a romantic fantasy movie and aventures, which was written by Christopher McQuarrie and directed by Christopher McQuarrie. The main characters in the movie are Tom Cruise,Rosamund Pike,Richard Jenkins,Werner Herzog,David Oyelowo,Robert Duvall. It was released in December 2012.

Thinking Barr is going to confess when he takes the notepad, they are bewildered when he instead writes " Get Jack Reacher ". Reacher meets Barr's defense attorney, counselor Helen Rodin ( Rosamund Pike ), the District Attorney ' s daughter, who has been saddled with the apparently hopeless task of saving Barr from the death penalty. Reacher and Cash flee the scene with confidence that Helen will clear Reacher's name. Still unaware of all these developments, Barr is willing to confess and accept his punishment, fearing that Reacher will mete out justice if the law does not.

The film I liked a lot since it is carried out by an actor who acts very well Tom Cruise.

I also liked it because it is an action movie and a crime.

MY FAVOURITE ENTERTAINMENT

My favourite entertainment  is the cinema. I actually like going every Sunday and spend a few hours there to watch a movie, then maybe to go play football with my friends. I prefer comedy movies. I make sure to get some candies, a nice cold drink and some popcorn right before the movie starts. I prefer to sit at the end seats because I can seethe movie better. I often go with friends to have some fun there, although my friends don't like comedy movies; they like dramatic or terror ones, which I hate. So we just see any other movie or just go to a kebab and have something to eat there.
