ANIMAL PLANET WEEK

So, did anyone did the Animal Planet Poll on my blog? If you missed it, it was on this post. Animal Planet Week Poll was a post dedicated to encourage my readers at Green Tea World!! to go and look for some of the interesting facts about animals. Unfortunately the Nuffnang poll only permits 5 questions. As promised I will review the answers for all of the questions featured.

QUESTION NUMBER 1
"Can An Elephant Jump?"

No. I don't think an elephant can jump. Please do imagine if they really can jump!! Earth-shaking statement. anyway, elephants are thought to have a good memory.
Answer: NO

QUESTION NUMBER 2
"Cats Are Thought To Have A Sense In Predicting What?"

Cats have a good habit of licking their furs, it's actually a clue for the answer. The cats, according to one documentary on psychic animal on Animal Planet, are thought to have a sense over lightning and thunderstorm. You see, prior to thunderstorm, the environment is full of electrical charges, the positive and negative ions are constantly created. Cats fur are considered as the positive ions accumulating center and therefore, you will notice that the cats will keep licking their furs. It actually reduces the electrical charges on their fur which may affects their mood.
Therefore, they are thought to predict thunderstorms. Look at their behaviour next time in which they get a bit upset when thunderstorms come.

QUESTION NUMBER 3
"What Is The Strongest Animal In The World?"

No surprise, bison can carry up to 2 tonnes of stuffs on their shoulder - that's estimation. An elephant can carry lodges even more. Cheetahs are good runner or rather sprinter and they don't last long so they can't enter a marathon. Flea can jump so far that it can be like a human jumping over 1km. The strongest of all with relatives to size is definitely a beetle bug species known as rhinoceros beetle, which can carry an object up to 850 times of its own weight. So who is the strongest? Bettle bug!!

QUESTION NUMBER 4
"Pigeons Migrate To Other Places When Ever The Season Changes, How?"

The pigeons travel across the globe because of changing season. In winter, it is impossible to find food because of scarce resources. Therefore like any other birds, they migrate to places warmer and full of food. Pigeons do not possess any ability in making force field. So, force field is wrong. Storm field, they will sure avoid them. Temperature difference, not really a good indicator. Food sense, they can smell from afar but it does not work that way. The mystery behind is that their ability for magnetoception, to detect location and altitude and direction because of magnetic field on the earth. Remember when we always said that earth is a giant magnet with poles as the end of the magnet.

QUESTION NUMBER 5
"Cattle And Livestock Can Contribute To Global Warming"

Once, they are people whom came out with this statement, if we all stop eating cattle and livestocks (cow, lamb and so on) we can reduce the emmision of global warming gases by 10%. And did you watch Black sheep, a mocking horror movie from New Zealand about genetically modified sheeps that bite people? Remember how they died in the end? They fart out methane. so , it is true!!

So, I hope you did enjoyed the polls..
See you!!!

Choice of answers: YES, NO, I DON'T KNOW


QUESTION NUMBER 2

QUESTION NUMBER 4

"Pigeons Migrate To Other Places When Ever The Season Changes, How?"

Pigeons and other aviation animals travel across the North and South each time winter or summer comes. This is to ensure that they will never get too cold during the winter, in which they will travel to place which is warmer. But something is behind the mystery on how they can sense the coming winter and where to go?
Choice of answers: FORCE FIELD, MAGNETIC FIELD, STORM FIELD, TEMPERATURE DIFFERENCES, FOOD SENSE


QUESTION NUMBER 5

"Cattle And Livestock Can Contribute To Global Warming"

Very direct question. YES or NO

There you go with the five questions. Trivia voting poll will run until 4 March 2009. Answers will be revealed on 6 March 2009.Have fun!!

OFFICIAL TRAILER FOR TRANSFORMERS: REVENGE OF THE FALLEN

GREEN TEA WORLD!! will be updating the Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen trailer again. After the World Premier of the teaser (click in case you haven't watched it) during the Super Bowl event back in 1st February, the much anticipated first Official Trailer of the movie was released during the President Day Holiday last weekend in the United States. Many have watched the trailer and it seems to be more detailed than the initial teaser itself.

Followings are my review and commentary based on the official trailer, with much aids from the online encyclopeadia Wikipedia site and the Youtube user apnatv7HD's posted video about the commentary.

WATCH CAREFULLY, PAUSE AND PLAY AS INSTRUCTED POINT AT THE MOVIE AND HAVE FUN....(Click to enlarge the pictures for better view)



00:12 - 00:21 A scene where the first 'asteroid' event was seen. A man was pointing at the 2 asteroids as there passed by. One of it hit a tower. 2 robots!! Could it be the reference to Mudflap and Skids, a twin Autobots that may transform into an ice-cream van?

00:30 - 00:33
The second 'asteroid' event. Another 4 are seen to been crashing on the desert somewhere in Egypt with the Pyramid as the background. Hey, what were they doing in Egypt?

00:34 - 00:49
The third 'asteroid' event where approximately 5 were heading towards a herd of cruising battleship. Later 3 of them crashed one of the battleship and it sank into the deep ocean. These could be the reference to The Constructicons.

Now take a deep breath and do this very slowly and carefully. This is the hardest part.
00:51 A robot crashed a building. 2 men were sitting; 1 was terrified and notice the bald man whom was still sitting calmly. Very funny baldie!!

00:52 The same robot rolled out of the building. It has a red eyes, indicating a Decepticon. Later it transformed into an Audi (based on the logo seen). Slow down at somewhere between 00:54 - 00:56, you will see the Audi logo of 4 rings. Hey, that Audi was Sideways.

00:56 You should play it real slow during this sequence of the rolling Audi. Slowly I believe you will be able to spot 'a robot figure' on top of the passing Audi. See it? Here is the figure.

Also 00:56 At the same time, right after the Audi had passed by, you will notice three robotic figures, presumably were chasing after the Audi. On the left, it was an obvious pink motorcycle - that was a part of Arcee, I swear!! The three figures will eventually unite to form the real Arcee.

Now let's move on...the Audi made an escape...Next...
01:03 - 01:07 A sequence where a robot transforming with several armed men approaching it. The transformed robot caused a massive destruction. Could that be The Constructicons? It was supposed to very tall and big size due to it was a combination of 6 robots. So you asked earlier that there were only 5 asteroids. Well, it so happened that it fall into the ocean and another one will be the resurrected Devastator from the first movie? Can it be.

After that it is the scene where the simple conversation between Sam and his father; followed by a shocking Mikaela and Sam.

01:19 A micro-robotic figure - wingless because Sam pull of its wing.

01:27 - 01:28 Sam was over-powered by a robotic claw or arm...Could this be Starscream?

01:29 Bumblebee!!

01:33 - 01:34 Scorpionok coming to attack an Autobots, which is said to be Jetfire.

01:36 An one-eyed jaguar or dog-like robot. According to Wikipedia source, this is Ravage, a minion of Soundwave. It fit the descriptions.

01:38 Optimus Prime been knocked by an unknown opponent!!

01:39 A Decepticons with the soldiers been stumbled seeing it.

01:40 A new character, a guy accompanying Mikaela here. The character is called Leo Spitz, played by Ramon Rodriguez

01:41 - 01:45 You see the same robot that transformed and caused explosion earlier at 01:03. This time clearly there were two wires attached to it.

01:48 The interesting part when Optimus Prime arrive and trying to stop the 2-wheel robot.

Now, let's get our vision sharper and look carefully
01:49 Arcee the pink motor-robot on the same highway as the one used by Optimus.

Following that until the end, Optimus Prime transformed and the highway was destroyed.

- THE END -

So, how was it? Fun? Very analytical for my review on the trailer this time. Do have fun and enjoy. GREEN TEA WORLD!! is anticipating the release of the movie. Who doesn't?
