Seen it

Well, I went to the mall near me and seen the latest, biggest movie among 13-17 year old girls. But hey Love is love any way you tell it. Yes, I am talking about Twilight, the Vampire movie. Overall I loved it. But if you want to get nit picky. There are some vampire myths that I can't just get with, with this version of a vampire film. But, granted it is for the youngster.

First of all, well lets bullet theses points:

1.) They never show there FANGS
2.) Their bite is just a regular human bite.
3.) They can turn humans into vampires with venom (not the traditional you suck me, I'll suck you)
4.) They never sleep, not even at night, they just come out more often in rainy and overcast weather.
5.) If they come out in the sun they are the most beautiful being you've ever seen, their skin is sparkling like diamonds. Yes, sparkly.
6.) and lastly, they have abilities like read minds, and see future etc. one had a unique sense of smell for humans.


Some of the myths this writer did not change, which I am glad:

1.) speed
2.) Strength
3.) Vampires can feel when the one they love is in trouble and race to help. This is the parts I liked about this type of vampire genr. The forbidden love aspect.


Yeh, it was corny at some parts, but I still liked it for what it was given the PG-13 rating.

State of Emergency

Sylmar -- Full electrical service was restored to the entire city of Los Angeles 25 minutes after rolling blackouts were implemented because of the brushfire in Newhall Pass, officials said today. The Mid City, Crenshaw, Harbor Gateway and Sherman Oaks areas were cut out of the Department of Water and Power's grid at 9:40 a.m., but service was restored there by 10:05. The Los Angeles fire department said it received numerous reports of people trapped in elevators in those sections of Los Angeles today, and traffic began backing up on at least one San Fernando Valley freeway. Traffic on the Ventura (101) Freeway backed up at the Van Nuys Boulevard interchange due to failed traffic signals on nearby surface streets. The Department of Water and Power said that it would institute rolling blackouts to reduce load on its system, as power lines in the Newhall Pass area were taken out of service as the fire burns through the area. Major transmission lines and switching stations were surrounded by flames in Newhall Pass for several hours.

The one time we move to Los Angeles, we get caught in the middle of wildfires. Not very healthy. We may have to evacuate...hope not. Makes one think of a planning a survival kit and a plan.
