Price Tag-Jesie J Lyrics

Seems like everybody's got a price
I wonder how they sleep at night
When the sale comes first and the truth comes second
Just stop for a minute and smile

Why is everybody so serious?
Acting so damn mysterious
You got your shades on your eyes and your heels so high
That you can't even have a good time

Everybody look to their left
Everybody look to their right
Can you feel that? Yeah
We'll pay them with love tonight

It's not about the money, money, money
We don't need your money, money, money
We just wanna make the world dance
Forget about the price tag

Ain't about the cha-ching, cha-ching
Ain't about the ba-bling, ba-bling
Wanna make the world dance
Forget about the price tag

We need to take it back in time
When music made us all unite
And it wasn't low blows and video hoes
Am I the only one gettin' tired?

Why is everybody so obsessed?
Money can't buy us happiness
Can we all slow down and enjoy right now
Guarantee we'll be feelin' alright

Everybody look to their left
Everybody look to their right
Can you feel that? Yeah
We'll pay them with love tonight

It's not about the money, money, money
We don't need your money, money, money
We just wanna make the world dance
Forget about the price tag
[ From : http://www.elyrics.net/read/j/jessie-j-lyrics/price-tag-lyrics.html ]

Ain't about the cha-ching, cha-ching
Ain't about the ba-bling, ba-bling
Wanna make the world dance
Forget about the price tag

Yeah, yeah, well, keep the price tag and take the cash back
Just give me six strings and a half stack
And you can keep the cars, leave me the garage
And all I, yes, all I need are keys and guitars

And guess what, in 30 seconds I'm leaving to Mars
Yes, we leaving across these undefeatable odds
It's like this man, you can't put a price on life
We do this for the love, so we fight and sacrifice every night

So we ain't gon' stumble and fall, never
Waiting to see, a sign of defeat, uh uh
So we gon' keep everyone moving their feet
So bring back the beat and then everybody sing, it's not about

It's not about the money, money, money
We don't need your money, money, money
We just wanna make the world dance
Forget about the price tag

Ain't about the cha-ching, cha-ching
Ain't about the ba-bling, ba-bling
Wanna make the world dance
Forget about the price tag

It's not about the money, money, money
We don't need your money, money, money
We just wanna make the world dance
Forget about the price tag

Ain't about the cha-ching, cha-ching
Ain't about the ba-bling, ba-bling
Wanna make the world dance
Forget about the price tag

Yeah, yeah
Oh, forget about the price tag

Review The Host by Stephenie Meyer


Okay, I’ll confess. There are no vampires here - but with a description like "featuring what may be the first love triangle involving only two bodies" you have got to be just a bit curious, right?
Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight series novels have often been described as vampire fiction for people who don’t like vampires.  It is fair to say that with The Host, her latest novel, she has once again managed to break the usual genre conventions - this time writing a science fiction novel for people who don’t like sci-fi.
In The Host, Stephenie Meyer leaves vampires and the misty forests of Forks, Washington behind as she moves into the arid Arizona desert and the realms of science fiction.  While The Host isn’t marketed as a young adult novel, it is not not a novel for young adults either.  The story has a fairly universal appeal and I can see Stephenie Meyer’s existing fan base finding enough similarities to the Twilight series in the writing style and the content of The Host to be more than satisfied.
Unlike the most popular alien invasion movies and science fiction TV shows, The Host doesn’t have Will Smith or Richard Dean Anderson to save the planet against a background of gun fire, secret weapons and loud explosions.  In The Host humanity lost, vastly outnumbered and stealthily overwhelmed by superior technology.  There are tiny pockets of resistance left, just a handful of humans who haven’t yet been captured, but they don’t spend their days plotting to retake the planet from the aliens – just surviving consumes all their time.
Indeed, The Host isn’t really about saving the planet from alien invaders; it is a story about what it is to be human, about identity and about individualism.  Most of all The Host is a story about the nature of love.  Romantic love, love of family, love of friends - all of these emotions are explored by Wanderer as she first succumbs to Melanie’s emotional memories then succumbs to the emotions for herself. 
There is more than just memories left of Melanie though; she is trapped inside her own head unable to take control of her own body, forced to be an unwilling host to the alien Wanderer.  Which makes things very interesting when Wanderer and Melanie eventually meet up with Melanie’s loved ones…
Possibly the largest similarity between The Host and the author’s Twilight series novels is the character of Wanderer.  She has something of a Bella vibe going on - it is the way that they are both enormously self sacrificing.  Wanderer’s alien nature actually makes her even more self sacrificing than Bella which means that she needs others to look out for her and take care of her since she has little instinct for self preservation.
All in all The Host makes for compelling reading.  Avoiding the obvious sci-fi clichés it concentrates on humanity and the human emotions experienced by an alien invader who really wants to be human.   A great read - even if it doesn’t have any vampires in it…

Meski ada beberapa kepalsuan seperti makanan yang masuk sebenarnya hanya didorong ke bagian tertentu dalam robot sehingga kotoran palsu bisa keluar ke bagian lain, pembuatan robot ini tetap mempunyai efek yang besar. Si Bebek pencerna ternyata mendorong revolusi industri tenun dengan penemuan alat tenun otomatis.

Nah, itulah 10 robot tercanggih di dunia. dan paling keren di dunia.

Twilight – Breaking Dawn Release Date? & Spoilers


Breaking Dawn movie release date & spoilers (Twilight)
Summit have already bought the rights, so what will the Breaking Dawn movie release date be, and will it be split into two films?
If you haven’t read Breaking Dawn the one thing to know is that it has some very strange elements, and delicate material, mostly involving freaky childbirth. A movie version will be challenging. The plot goes as follows: SPOILERS AHEAD Bella (Kristen Stewart) falls pregnant during her honeymoon with Edward (Robert Pattinson). But they are both concerned at the abnormally rapid growth of the foetus so Edward urges her, unsuccessfully, to have an abortion. Not knowing what danger this unborn vampire-human child may hold, the werewolves plot to kill Bella, which forces Jacob (Taylor Lautner) to leave and form his own pack. The birth breaks many of Bella’s bones and she loses massive amounts of blood so, in order save her life, Edward turns her into a vampire. Jacob “imprints” on the newborn child, Renesmee, meaning he has found his soulmate. Meanwhile the Volturi (‘vampire government’) see Renesmee as a threat and set out to destroy the Cullens.
Though there is no official confirmation, filming on Breaking Dawn is expected to start in early 2010. Work hasn’t begun on the script, as it seems they’ve been waiting on New Moon’s box office results before deciding whether to split the book into two movies. Breaking Dawn’s novel is 756 pages, compared to Twilight’s 544 pages. The hold up may also be due to the cast being contracted for four movies, not five, so costly negotiations need to take place. However, given that New Moon has just opened bigger than The Dark Knight, I’d be surprised if they don’t split it.
My presumption is, considering the speedy turnover of the series, Breaking Dawn: Part 1′s release date will be early 2011 and Part 2′s release date late 2011.
Stephanie Meyer herself is deeply concerned about how the character of Renesmee will translate to the screen, writing that an actress could not play her, because she is a baby with complete awareness, and that “the one thing that I’ve never seen is a CGI human being who truly looks real”. Personally, I thought the wolves in New Moon looked pretty fake so I don’t think that’s going to hold up the movie.
Twilight fans, what do you think the Breaking Dawn movie release date should be? Should the novel be split in two? Are you worried about how some of the story will translate?

Pink Beach



Tak usah jauh-jauh ke Bahama, di negara kita pun ada pantai yang pasirnya berwarna pink. Lokasi tersebut tepatnya ada di Pulau Komodo, provinsi Nusa Tenggara Timur. Penduduk setempat menamakannya Pantai Merah, namun secara internasional lebih dikenal sebagai Pink Beach. Kabar baiknya lagi, di pantai ini tidak ada bangunan apa-apa dan tidak dihuni penduduk, pantainya kosong, song, song. Nah, sekarang bayangkan diri Anda berfoto di pantai dengan latar belakang air laut bergradasi biru, perbukitan hijau, langit biru cerah, gumpalan awan putih, dan hamparan pasir yang benar-benar berwarna pink! How romantic!

Konon pantai berpasir warna pink hanya ada 7 di dunia, salah satunya di Pulau Komodo. Pasir pink ini terbentuk dari pecahan karang berwarna merah. Tapi sebenarnya hewan mikroskopik semacam amuba bernama Foraminifera yang memproduksi warna merah atau pink terang pada karang. Bila kita mengambil sejumput pasirnya maka terlihat pasir berwarna merah di antara pasir putih. Bila ombak menyapu pasir dan menariknya, maka warna pasir tersebut berubah menjadi pink tua. Keren abis! Butiran pasirnya halus dan empuk, sungguh nikmat saat berjalan atau berjemur di atasnya.

Kegiatan di sana selain berfoto, bisa berjemur, berenang, atau sekedar ‘leyeh-leyeh’. Nikmat karena tidak ramai dan komersil. Berenang pun menyegarkan mata. Banyak hard corals dan soft corals yang berwarna-warni dan masih sehat. Ditambah lagi banyaknya ikan-ikan hias, seperti clown fish (disebut juga Nemo) butterfly fish, dan bat fish. Karena tidak ada warung atau restoran, sebaiknya Anda membawa perbekalan sendiri, sekalian piknik.

Cara mencapainya paling mudah dengan terbang dari Bali ke Labuan Bajo, lalu menyewa speedboat atau kapal nelayan dari Labuan Bajo menuju Pulau Komodo. Sebelum sampai ke Pink Beach, mampirlah untuk trekking melihat langsung komodo liar di Loh Liang. Bagi penggemar scuba diving, alam bawah lautnya luar biasa bagus. Anda dapat mengikuti dive trip melalui Dive Operator yang ada di Labuan Bajo.
