Ken Levine - Inspiring Person | Task

Date of birth : 1966
Birthplace : Flushing, New York

Involvement in the BioShock series
Ken Levine is the creative director and co-founder of Irrational Games. He led the creation of BioShock, and is known for his work on Thief: The Dark Project and System Shock 2. He was named one of the "Storytellers of the Decade" by Game Informer and was the 1UP Network's 2007 person of the year.

Born in Flushing, New York in 1966, he grew up in New Jersey in the '70's.  Growing up a recluse, he called his early childhood very rough, due to not being popular and also citing a stammer.  He also grew up an avid Dungeons and Dragons fanatic, thinking there wouldn't be other kids like him to play with, he trained himself to play on his own.  When he did find his way into a group of friends who also enjoyed the role playing game on the same level he did, he called it like "finding my tribe."  He said through this expierience, he'd befriend new friends, who would expose him to Monty Python and Doctor Who.

Levine studied drama at Vassar College in Poughkeepsie, New York before moving to Los Angeles to pursue a film career, writing two screenplays. In 1995, he was hired as a game designer by Cambridge, Massachusetts-based Looking Glass Studios after replying to a job ad in Next Generation Magazine. At Looking Glass, Levine worked with pioneering designer Doug Church to establish the initial fiction and design of Thief: The Dark Project.

In 1997, following his work on Thief, Levine left Looking Glass along with two coworkers, Jonathan Chey and Robert Fermier, to found Irrational Games.[14] The studio's first game was the science fiction RPG/shooter System Shock 2, a direct sequel to Looking Glass' original 1993 System Shock. Levine served as lead writer and designer,[15] and the game shipped in 1999 to critical acclaim.

Irrational's next project was Freedom Force, a real-time tactical RPG that drew heavily on the love Levine and Irrational artist Robb Waters had for the Silver Age of Comic Books. After the first Freedom Force game, Irrational developed Tribes: Vengeance and SWAT 4, on which Levine served as writer and executive producer respectively.

Although Tribes: Vengeance, SWAT 4, and Third Reich all shipped within a year of one another in 2004 and 2005, Irrational had been working in preproduction on the first-person shooter BioShock, the studio's most ambitious game at that point, since 2002.[17] The game went through numerous revisions to its premise and gameplay, and was released in August 2007, soon after Levine, Chey, and Fermier sold Irrational Games to publisher 2K Games.

In 2008, Levine delivered the keynote address at the Penny Arcade Expo in Seattle, discussing his youth as a nerd in the 1970s and how it impacted the path of his career.

Since the release of BioShock, Levine has been serving as creative director on BioShock Infinite, set in 1912 in the fictional floating city of Columbia.

Google’s Stockholm office was designed by Camenzind Evolution. Like the Tel Aviv and Moscow offices, the Stockholm headquarters reflect the values of Google both internationally and locally. Thus, many Swedish elements were included. The meeting rooms all have different themes based on Swedish inventors and inventions. This one is a tribute to Gustaf de Laval, who made huge contributions to the dairy industry in the late 19th century.

If you are hungry or just boring, you can slide down to the cafeteria using this cool slide. It seem fun and more easy than using the stair though. There are many type of slide around the google office. And remember, all of food are free! Take it as much as you want! You can bring your food to your home. It's not illegal at all.

Tired and bored for 4 hours of working? Just go to play room. There are so many play room like basketball and football room, video games room, music room, bilyard room and manymore.

How do seasons happen? | Task

Seasons come to us regularly. We have probably noticed that it gets warmer in summer or dry season while it get colder in the winter or wet season. However do we know how these seasons change?

Seasons happen and change every year. This happens because the earth tilts back and forth as it goes around the sun. During the summer, the earth tilts toward the sun. It makes half of the earth hotter. this condition is what we call summer. During the other half of the year, the earth tilts away from the sun. As a result, it makes that half of the earth cooler. This cool condition is then what we call winter.

The different parts of the world have the same season at different times. In the northern half of the world , winter happens during the months of December, January and February. The regions are such North America and Europe. In the other hand, the southern half of the world have winter during the months of June, July and August.The regions are like South America and Australia. How does this difference happen? The same season happens at different times because the top and bottom halves of the earth tilt away from the sun at different times.

First day i was watching a cartoon called adventure time, it last for five days to watch all episode of adventure time. For that five days I think I was watched more than 100 episodes of them. If i got bored i could go something else like playing video game. That game called "Bioshock Infinite" Its was a 10 hours first person shooter game. That game was the best FPS at 2013 and still my favorite video game until now. By the way, I couldn't just finished, i must play the 2 hours sequel of the game, that was called burial at sea. It was fun thought.

I couldn't let my self unhealty so beside playing and watching, i did some sport and somehow and somewhy I tried to write with  my left hand. It was so ugly at first but now I can feel that my left-handed-writing is better. Back to my holiday, so that was my first week of my holiday. I was playing and playing.

It was  different from the second week. In the second week I could smell the school thingy tries to disturb my holiday -_- At some days ofmy holiday, i must wentto school.
