SUMMARY:Coco - movie review by Junior Journalist Shawn
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHave you seen Coco yet? Our junior journalist Shawn is huge fan and he had a wonderful time enjoying Coco at the theater. Read here for his movie review. \n\n\n\nAbout Coco the movie\n\nCoco is a 2017 American 3D computer-animated musical fantasy film produced by Pixar Animation Studios and released by Walt Disney Pictures. Based on an original idea by Lee Unkrich\, it is directed by Unkrich and co-directed by Adrian Molina. \n \nMovie Review of Coco\nBy: Shawn Lo (age 10)                       \nThe movie Coco is about the miraculous journey of Miguel Rivera\, who is searching for his great\, great grandpa in the land of the dead.  Miguel is a 12-year old boy in Mexico whose greatest desire is to be a musician like his idol Ernesto de La Cruz.  By accident\, Miguel enters the world of the dead and needs his ancestor's blessing to come back.   He also wants his great\, great grandpa to show him how to express joy and emotion through music.  For generations Miguel's family have always thought music was a curse because of his great great grandfather's decision of leaving family for music.\nThe people who help Miguel achieve this goal is his trusted dog\, Donte. Donte is a loyal\, and protective guardian who not only is Miguel's pet but also his guarding angel. Another person who helps Miguel\, is Hector\, a rowdy  boisterous  but cheerful and funny  skeleton. Hector teaches Miguel how to express music\, and how to sing.\n\nWill Miguel be able to come back from the world of the dead? Will he able to find his great\, great grandpa?  The movie Coco is full of wit\, music\, color. It even turns death into an amusement-park ride!   What I also love about this movie is the movie talks about death not with fear but with intimacy.   To Mexicans\, and also to Chinese\, death is sacred.   Many Mexican and Chinese have altars in our homes with candles\, fruits and flours next to the photos of our ancestors.  The film also points out the importance of cherishing our own family members\, especially the elders\, rather than our idols.   This movie is a must see\, and a perfect movie to watch with family.  Just remember to bring tissues!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nhttps://youtu.be/xlnPHQ3TLX8\n\n

SUMMARY:CHILL at Queen Mary is Open Now ~ junior journalists first hand report
DESCRIPTION:\n\n《白雪銀裝下的瑪麗皇后號2017》已經隆重開幕了，當晚紅地毯上好多明星紅人，兩位小記者 Jaslyne & Carissa 做了好幾個現場訪問，心情好興奮！小記者還喜遇網路紅人 Loren Gray，她好友善地接受採訪並合照，兩位小粉絲喜出望外！\n\n今年的 Chill 換上六個「國家」文化為主題，有德國、俄羅斯、瑞士、中國、荷蘭，還有大家最喜歡的北極！\n\n今年更增加了好多好玩新遊戲：真雪碰碰車、高空滑索、溜雪滑道、溜冰場、巨型 shuffleboard、雪上三輪車 . . . ，一個晚上都玩不完！\n\n立即跟著小記者的步伐，一起玩轉 The Queen Mary's CHILL 吧！\n\nDates: Dec 13 to Jan 7\, open everyday except on New Year's Eve \n\nTickets: $29.00 for adults (ages 9+) and $19.00 for kids; VIP Ultimate Expedition Pass $79.00 for adults (ages 9+) and $69.00 for kids\n\nWebsite: http://www.queenmary.com/events/chill-2017-2018/\n\nhttps://youtu.be/xWrV12r8T8E\n\n\n\nCarissa Y (age 10)\nHave you ever went tubing on an icy slope in Long Beach? Yesterday\, me and Jaslyne visited Chill\, in Long Beach as junior journalists. Chill is a 38\,000-square foot ice park. This year\, the theme is international cultural celebrations. Different sections of the park had foods\, decorations and activities from Germany\, Switzerland\, China\, Russia\, Holland\, and the North Pole. Although\, this year there were no ice sculptures in the giant igloo\, there were ice skating\, tubing\, ziplining\, ice tricycles\, and many more fun activities.\n\nWhen we got there\, the red carpet was waiting for us. Since we had a media pass\, we were able to fulfill our mission to interview some stars. I was really excited to meet and interview Loren Gray\, a musically and instagram star\, and ask her about her thoughts on this year’s Chill and her experiences going around the world. She was really nice. Me and Jaslyne also got interview many other stars. \n When we walked into Chill\, we saw a long zipline stretched across the sky\, an ice rink filled with skaters and many bright lights and decorations. The ice rink can lead you to many different attractions and it even went through a small dome with flying acrobats inside. We decided to go on the North pole zipline first\, it was a really tall zipline\, so I was a bit nervous at first but when I started zooming through the air\, I felt ecstatic and it was very enjoyable.\n\nThen\, we went to ice bumper cars\, instead of on land\, it was on ice. It also lighted up with colorful blinking lights. After playing on the bumper cars\, We stopped to rest\, eat and drink at Switzerland and had the best mac and cheese with bacon ever. Next to us\, there were many drink shops that sold hot apple cider and tea\, which painted to look like house in villages of Switzerland. We passed by China\, where there were many red lanterns hanging from the sky and I even took a picture with a panda! After that\, we went tubing down a slope twice. I was really exciting because the tube went down really fast and kept on whirling around and around. \n\nFinally\, we visited Mrs. Claus in here cozy home to get hot chocolate and listen to her stories. Suddenly\, we heard a loud booming sound. We rushed outside and saw different colors of fireworks bursting in the sky\, they looked like they were dancing to the Christmas music that was playing in they background.\n\n\n\n\n\nAfter this day\, I know that I will definitely come back again. I recommend you go on the zipline and bumper cars first because the line is the longest. Then\, while you are skating\, the rink had opening for you to go out for refreshments without returning your skates. Lastly\, for the younger ones you can decorate your own stocking and to have hot chocolate and stories with Mrs. Claus.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJaslyne T (age 11)\n\n\n\n     Imagine a picture perfect scene where people are smiling\, ambling down a cute road lined with cute houses\, or eating delicious food at a cozy cabin. Queen Mary’s CHILL is just the right place to experience this place. The 6 different countries/places create a unique aura that cannot be experienced anywhere else. A good mix of Santa and stockings to the Chinese Shaolin Monks performance and Lion Dance is a great way for kids to learn and have great fun. \n\n     The great activities will keep the family entertained for hours. Fun Christmas music in the background while you are sliding down a hill is truly a unique experience that everyone will enjoy. Going in the bumper cars is a great game for little ones and tweens alike. Even adults can join in the fun! All of the activities mentioned are great for kids AND parents! The zipline is probably the most thrilling and exhilarating activity to do at CHILL. (Especially during the fireworks). It starts as a very high height and you zip down to the earth at a very high speed. It will make your teeth chatter and your heart pump\, but it wasn’t scary after a few seconds. (I recommend for ages 8 and up). But\, this activity isn’t for the people who aren’t too fond of heights. \n\n     The food and drinks were superb. We ate at the Alpine Lodge\, and the Mac & Cheese was amazing! It was cheesy\, and had a hint of spice on the tip of my tongue. It was extremely creamy\, but not overly so. I also drank the onion soup. It was a bit on the salty side\, but I personally liked it. A dash of pepper does the trick\, and it really tastes magnificent. I also suggest to drink the Hot Apple Cider at the Coffee shop. It was sweet\, hot\, and strangely refreshing and all in all a perfect rendition of the drink. But\, at Ms.Claus’s Stories & Drinks\, the hot chocolate is a bit underwhelming. Lacking sweetness and depth\, I wasn’t a fan. \n\n     All in all\, this year’s CHILL was beautiful and a wonderful experience that I loved. The different countries added a wonderful addition to this already fun event. The 38\,000 square foot ice park is a sight not to miss. I definitely suggest all families to go to this event\, as it ends on January 7th. Over winter break is a wonderful time. I hope to see you there!\n\n\n\nMore Info about CHILL at Queen Mary\n\nExperience the 38\,000-square foot ice park honoring international holiday celebrations with authentic beverages and bites from Germany\, Switzerland\, China\, Russia\, Holland\, and the fabled North Pole. Start your foodie expedition at Germany’s Twisted Pretzel Pub & Tasting Room featuring family owned 200-year-old German beer flights for adults and samplings of ginger beer\, butter beer\, and root beer for the wee ones. Delight in traditional German dishes at CHILL’s Brat Haus with cuisines provided by Long Beach’s own Rasselbock Kitchen and Beer Garden\, offering Schnitzel\, Bratwurst\, Kraut\, and more authentic fresh German fare.\n\n\n\n\n\nFamilies can cozy up in Switzerland’s Alpine Patio by roasting marshmallows and building gooey s’mores at the toasty fire pit.

Actors and actresses glide on ice while singing\, dancing\, telling a story. Although there were many short stories throughout the whole show\, there were four main stories that really stood out: Riley’s story\, Beauty and the Beast\, Finding Dory\, and Let it Go.\n\nIn Riley’s story\, characters from the movie Inside Out appeared\, as well as classical Disney characters Mickey Mouse\, Donald Duck\, and Goofy. Overall\, the performance was very realistic\, the dialogue was clear\, and the storyline was easy to follow. The beautiful lights really set the atmosphere and made the performance even more spectacular. Miniature stories inside of Riley’s own story added some fun and excitement to the story. The costumes of the performing characters were very detailed and realistic\, and added a little extra to the performance as a whole. At the end of Riley’s story\, all of the viewers were taught a very valuable and powerful lesson: just be yourself.\n\n \n\nThe next performance was Beauty and the Beast\, featuring Belle\, a beautiful young woman\, and the Beast\, a misunderstood man. The costumes of both Belle and the Beast were really realistic\, and almost identical to how they appeared in the movie\, which made the experience a lot more fun and interesting. The dialogue\, dance\, and gestures that the performers made were filled with emotion and made the story easy to follow. The dancing and songs were the most spectacular part. The choreographed leaps and twirls were mesmerizing and breathtaking to watch.\n\nAfter Beauty and the Beast\, performers in fish costumes took the stage. They performed the sequel of a Disney classic\, Finding Dory. There wasn’t much singing throughout the performance\, but the spectacular costumes and props made up for that. They were unbelievably realistic\, and brought the characters to life. Another thing that caught my attention was the subtle humor that the character displayed throughout the performance. It really made the show fun and exciting to watch.\n\nLastly\, a few very talented actors and actresses performed songs and scenes from the popular Disney movie\, Frozen. The songs and characters were pretty much identical to the ones from the movie\, and it was very enjoyable to watch the performers sing the popular songs that have touched so many people’s hearts over the years. The most spectacular thing throughout the performance was when beautiful icicles and realistic snow lowered from the ceiling. These details helped make the whole performance feel magical. At the end the the Frozen performance\, viewers came away with a very important lesson: love conquers all.\n\nIn conclusion\, the Disney On Ice show was very enjoyable to watch. The actors and actresses did a good job of making characters come to life. Spectacular acting and ice skating skills made the performance breathtaking. The costumes\, props\, and lights were magical\, and the familiar characters brought back happy childhood memories as well as a deeper understanding of the performance. All in all\, the show was amazing\, and I would definitely see it again if I had the chance.\n\nhttps://youtu.be/0owgSOEydi8\nRyan L (age 9)\nHello Disney Fans!  Bundle up and come watch Disney On Ice "Follow Your Heart" performance this holiday.\n\nDisney On Ice takes you through a magical adventure with performances you won't believe.!  There is definitely a little of everything for everyone\, including Mickey\, Minnie\, Goofy\, Donald Duck\, and all these other princesses.  The main stories performed in the show include  Beauty and the Beast\, Inside Out\, Finding Dory\, and Frozen.    Each story has its own unique stage set which is amazing.   During the Frozen show\, you get to experience the cold temperature and weather.  My favorite performance in Disney On Ice is Finding Dory because it is one of my favorite movies.  Dory is Nemo's buddy who is very forgetful.  Finding Dory sets on an adventure of finding Dory's lost parents.  The most interesting part for me to watch are these amazing performers doing awesome stunts on ice.   They fly\, jump\, and flip which is really cool.\n\nThe magical wonders of Disney On Ice arrives in Southern California on December 14 in Staples Center and moves its way to Anaheim's Honda Center\, Long Beach Arena\, and Ontario's Citizen Business Bank Arena.  Hurry\, check the performing schedule and get your ticket today!.\n\n \n   \n\n\n

SUMMARY:小記者訪問加州財長 John Chiang 江俊輝   詳談 ScholarShare 529 新計劃助低中收入家庭儲蓄大學學費
DESCRIPTION:星期四早上，加州科學中心的太空穿梭機 Endeavor 號前聚集了一群充滿朝氣的小學生和不少傳媒記者，等待著加州財長 John Chiang 江俊輝和一眾嘉賓出席新聞發布會，宣布由加州財長辦公室與 ScholarShare 529 大學儲蓄計劃聯手推出的一項 Matching Grant Program 新計劃，協助低中收入家庭為子女大學教育展開儲蓄。\n\n丫丫小記者 Matthew 也在記者席中，會後他更爭取機會與財長 John Chiang 面對面進行訪談，了解這項計畫的詳情。小記者第一次訪問活動的表現如何？大家一起來看看吧！\n\nhttps://youtu.be/ui918IZx9nE\nCan you imagine college already mostly paid for? Well\, Scholarshare 529 allows you to do just that. Scholarshare 529 is one of the nation’s top performing college savings plans and the new program is used to help low- and moderate- income California families to jump-start saving for college. This Matching Grant Program helps families open a college savings account and counter rising tuition costs\, one of the most significant obstacles to securing a higher education. According to State Treasurer John Chiang\, chair of the ScholarShare Investment Board\, “The wealth gap in our country is the widest it has been in 40 years and the ability to afford higher education is becoming increasingly difficult for low-  and moderate-income California Families.”\n    On December 6\, 2017\, at the California Science Center\, a group of 5th graders gathered together and were inspired by Treasurer Chiang by shooting for the stars just like the spaceship Endeavor right behind Mr. Chiang. “Instead of just putting money for certain types of ads\, we wanted families to have that money and to build good financial habits by investing as frequently as they can\, to set aside those dollars so that they can gather investment earnings so that when the young children become young adults and they go off to college\, they can focus on studies and the college experience.” At the end of the interview\, Treasurer Chiang stated that he is running for California governor in 2018. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n加州財長江俊輝推動 529 大學儲蓄計劃 協助中低收入家庭儲備大學教育資金\n加州財長江俊輝與全國表現最佳的大學儲蓄計劃ScholarShare 529昨日聯手宣布一項新的計劃，協助低中收入家庭為子女大學教育展開儲蓄。\n\n這項「匹配補助金計劃」（Matching Grant Program）將幫助家庭開設大學儲蓄帳戶，以抵銷學費的不斷上升。現時，學費上升是青年完成高等教育的最大障礙之一。\n\n擔任ScholarShare投資委員會主席的江俊輝指出：「我們國家的貧富差距已經拉至40年來的最大，加州低收入和中等收入家庭負擔高等教育正變得越來越困難。」他指出，為了解決大學可負擔性，需要同時控制學費上漲和協助家庭儲蓄大學教育資金。\n\n研究顯示，家庭擁有大學儲蓄帳戶的孩子，無論金額多寡，就讀大學並畢業的機率高出七倍。依據匹配補助金計劃，ScholarShare529鼓勵家庭開設529帳戶，使加州家庭有機會追求高等教育並打造更光明的未來。\n\n該計劃提供不少彈性，資金可用於任何獲得認證的高等教育，包括社區大學和職技學校，以及其他獲得批准的教育開銷。而且，ScholarShare 529的帳戶儲蓄不會影響申領大多數州政府福利的資格，例如以工代賑（CalWORKS）和糧食券（CalFresh）。\n\n最近的研究顯示，如果目前的趨勢持續下去，到了2030年加州大學畢業生人數將減少110萬。江俊輝表示，如果希望改善本州整體財務狀況並縮小勞動技能缺口，就應讓所有加州人都更容易上大學，無論收入高低。\n\n匹配補助金計劃於2018年1月1日開始實施，為新開設的帳戶提供最高200元的匹配供款。家庭若設定每月25元以上的自動繳費計劃，即有資格獲得25元獎金。\n符合條件的家長/監護人必須是加州居民，具有有效的社會安全號碼或聯邦稅號，同時調整後年收入不超過75\,000元。有關此計劃的更多資訊，請至網站查詢：www.mgp.scholarshare529.com。\nScholarShare 529是加州在1999年創辦的官方大學儲蓄計劃，截至2017年10月止共有近30萬個帳戶及逾80億元資產。\n\nJunior journalist Matt attended ScholarShare California's 529 College Savings Plan Press Conference at California State Treasurer John Chiang announces the launch of its Match Grant Program to benefit more families and enable more kids to pursue their dreams\n\n

SUMMARY:Junior Journalist at "Jade Pendant" Movie Premiere
DESCRIPTION:    \n\n兩位丫丫小記者前天在蒙市 Atlantic Time Square 參與了中美合拍獨立電影《唐人街1871》The Jade Pendant 的電影首映和紅地毯活動，當晚所有主要演員，包括男主角高以翔、女主角李成敏，以及幕後製作團隊，包括製片、編劇、導演梁普智、原著作者 L P Leung 等都盛裝出席，電影放映後更有答問會，與觀眾進一步討論電影的製作過程。還與 Fresh off the Boat 三位小童星 Hudson Yang、Forrest Wheeler、Ian Chen 喜相逢，好開心喔！\n\n一起來看看小記者們的現場直擊報導吧！\n\n\n\n\n《唐人街1871》電影背景\n《唐人街1871》歷史事件的大背景是：1871年10月24日發生在洛杉磯唐人街針對華人的種族仇殺暴行。當時超過500多名男性白人暴徒蜂擁衝進洛杉磯唐人街襲擊丶搶劫丶殺害當地華人居民。 18名華人移民在屠殺事件中被暴徒有組織地殺害，是美國歷史上最大規模的私刑事件。事件之後，最初的定罪被非法推翻，所以沒有人因謀殺華人而被追究責任。在對華人的歧視氛圍下，1882年，美國通過了只針對華人的歧視性《排華法案》。\n\n本片由著名華裔作家梁小龍（L. P. Leong）的同名暢銷小說《翡翠吊墜》（The Jade Pendant）基於真實歷史故事創作改編，香港資深導演梁普智（Po-chin Leong）執導，影片最終定名為《唐人街1871 》。這是一部描寫華人早期移民在美國西部墾荒的一段艱難晦澀的歷史故事。講述一名叫“牡丹”的中國女子，由單親父親撫養，從小讀書，寫字，繪畫，習武，4歲拒絕裹腳，16歲為了逃離包辦婚姻，漂洋過海，追求自由和幸福的故事。\n\n好萊塢赫赫有名的兩個電影編劇 David Assael 和 Scott M.Rosenfelt 也加入共同改編創作《唐人街1871》。梁小龍和導演梁普智都表示，通過此片希望美國華人及所有華人不忘美國種族惡行歷史，以史為鏡，警惕任何種族歧視行徑，避免歷史重演。\n\n電影《唐人街1871》的台詞均為普通話和英文，並有簡體中文和英文字幕，並將於11月3日開始在洛杉磯，舊金山以及紐約的院線開始放映。\n\n\n\nhttps://youtu.be/v6jNeLjXI5I\n\nThe Story line ~\n\nPeony - A vibrant and beautiful girl raised in China by her widower father. He taught her reading\, calligraphy\, painting and kung fu. At age four\, she resisted foot-binding. At 16\, she rejected an arranged marriage; repulsed rape attempts in Hong Kong by her uncle; and signed on as a domestic to a brothel in San Francisco for five years. She sent the $200 advance stipend to her sick father. This is a story of Peony's determination to control her own destiny against great odds. The mystic jade pendant - Peony's grandmother gave her the heirloom pendant saying\, "Keep it with you at all times. It will protect you and give you wisdom." Frank Michaels\, unintentionally snatched the pendant from Peony during the 1871 Chinatown Massacre. He kept the pendant as his surrogate mistress for 52 years. In 1923\, he returned it to her husband Tom Wong who brought it to her grave in a very surreal encounter. Frank desperately needed absolution for his participation in the Massacre before he dies. During Peony's short life\, three Chinese men and Frank were infatuated with her. She loved Tom dearly. Their life together was short but his love for her was unceasing.\n\n\n\n[caption id="attachment_53871" align="alignnone" width="590"] photo: wapow[/caption]\n\n[caption id="attachment_53870" align="alignnone" width="400"] 男主角 高以翔 與 導演 梁普智 photo: nextshark.com[/caption]\n\n[caption id="attachment_53865" align="alignnone" width="590"] 與 Fresh off the Boat 三位小童星 Hudson Yang、Forrest Wheeler、Ian Chen 喜相逢[/caption]\n\n\n\n\n\n\nReview: The Jade Pendant\nby Karen Shi\n\nFirst of all\, I would not recommend certain parts of this film to younger audiences. There were a few explicit scenes and some violence distributed throughout the movie. However\, the chemistry between Peony (played by Clara Lee) and Tom Wong (played by Godfrey Gao) was very visible and I could almost feel it in the theater as I watched it. The movie makes you\, gasp\, wince\, and jump at all the right times as the storyline progresses with a crescendo and the conflict develops further. It’s hard not to cheer when Peony stabs her dagger a final time into Yu Hing\, an antagonist played by Tzi Ma. But it’s also a heartbreaking sight to see as Tom carries the unliving body of Peony out of the building near the end of the movie\, which quickly turns to sorrow and sympathy when the movie fast forwards to three generations later\, where Tom\, now a grandfather\, visits Peony at her gravestone with his family. The massacre of 18 Chinese immigrants in Los Angeles was portrayed in a very convincing scene\, you could practically feel the pain of the people as they were hung\, burned or shot with guns. \n\nYet\, the film is not all blood\, sweat and tears. It is accessorized with little bits of humor here and there. For example\, when Tom reaches in his bag to pull something out\, Peony leans towards him\, and when Tom turns his head back Peony snaps back into her original\, solemn pose. And we can’t forget the romance that begins the moment Peony and Tom meet while catching a thief on the streets not too long from when Peony first arrived to become a “Flower Princess” in America with her friend Lily. \n\nOverall\, The Jade Pendant portrayed the events of the execution of Chinese immigrants in California in 1871 as a tragic love story in a humorous yet heartbreaking way. It’s completely one-of-a-kind. It teaches Asians born Americans to stand up for themselves or ignore them if one ever accuses them of not being Americans. This 106 minute long film is certainly one to be remembered.
