Iron Man 2 Now Playing

Friday, May 7, 2010

Iron Man 2 is a 2010 American superhero film based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name from Marvel Studios and Paramount Pictures. It is the sequel to 2008's Iron Man, and the second film in a planned trilogy. Directed by Jon Favreau, the film stars Robert Downey Jr., reprising his role as Tony Stark.

Tony Stark has revealed his identity as Iron Man and is resisting calls by the United States Government to hand over the technology. Ivan Vanko has also duplicated the technology and built weapons of his own, creating new challenges for Stark.

The film held its red carpet premiere in Los Angeles, California, on April 26, 2010 and in France on April 28, 2010. It was released in the United States on May 7, 2010.

Six months after revealing his identity as Iron Man, Stark Industries CEO Tony Stark (Robert Downey, Jr.) has helped maintain world peace. He reinstitutes the Stark Expo in Flushing, New York, to continue his father's legacy. A United States Senate committee, led by Senator Stern (Garry Shandling), demands Stark release the technology for military application. Stark refuses, publicly embarrassing rival Justin Hammer (Sam Rockwell) in demonstrating how competitors are at least five years away from successfully recreating the technology.

Stark has discovered the palladium in the arc reactor keeping him alive is slowly poisoning him. All attempts to find a substitute element have failed. Growing increasingly despondent and thrill-seeking as a consequence of what he believes to be his impending death, he appoints his former personal assistant Pepper Potts (Gwyneth Paltrow) CEO of Stark Industries, replacing her with Natalie Rushman (Scarlett Johansson).

While participating in a race in Monaco, Stark is attacked by Ivan Vanko (Mickey Rourke), who has constructed a miniaturized arc reactor of his own, including whip-like attachments harnessing the electrical energy. Defeating Vanko with the aid of his briefcase armor, Stark discovers that Vanko is the son of his father's old business partner, disgraced Russian physicist Anton Vanko, who collaborated on the first arc reactor and has passed the technology on following his death. Ivan blames Tony and Howard Stark for Anton's fate; Anton raised his son to believe Howard Stark betrayed him, having him deported back to the Soviet Union in order to receive all the credit for the arc reactor. Hammer has Vanko broken out of jail, and recruits Vanko to perfect a line of armored combat units that he will use to upstage Stark at his own Expo.

With the government leaning on him even harder following the revelation that arc reactor technology is in the hands of someone else, Stark throws what he believes will be his last birthday party and promptly proceeds to get drunk while wearing the Iron Man armor, becoming a danger to himself and others. His friend Lt. Colonel James Rhodes (Don Cheadle) is forced to take the Mark II armor and subdue Tony, delivering the armor to the military afterward. Disgraced, Stark is approached by Nick Fury, director of S.H.I.E.L.D (Samuel L. Jackson), who reveals Natalie is an undercover agent. He also provides Tony with a chest of his father's old artifacts, which can hopefully be used to find a cure for his palladium poisoning. Stark realizes his father has left him a hidden message in the original diorama of the 1974 Stark Expo; the model is also a diagram of the atomic structure of an unknown element, which Howard was unable to synthesize due to the limits of his era's technology. Tony builds a particle accelerator (held up partially by a halfway-constructed shield) in his home with the aid of his computer J.A.R.V.I.S. (voiced by Paul Bettany) and creates this new element. The element is then loaded into a modified arc reactor chest piece and cures Stark's palladium poisoning. Afterward, Ivan calls Stark, revealing that he is free and set on revenge.

At the Expo, Hammer unveils his new military drones, captained by Rhodes in a heavily-weaponized version of the confiscated Mark II armor. Stark arrives as Iron Man intending to warn Rhodes, but Vanko takes control of both the drones and Rhodes's new armor, setting them to attack Iron Man. As Stark battles against these remote-controlled enemies, Potts has Hammer arrested while Stark's bodyguard Happy Hogan (Jon Favreau) and Natalie race to Hammer's Queens facility to stop Vanko. By the time they arrive, Vanko has already departed for the Expo in a new, more powerful suit of armor, but Natalie is able to give Rhodes control of his armor again so that he and Stark can fight together. After taking down the drones, the two fight Vanko in his new armor. They defeat him with a combined blast of their repulsor rays, but Vanko's armor and drones are then revealed to have been equipped with self-destruct charges. As they begin to go off, Stark races to save Pepper, rescuing her at the last minute. She quits her CEO position, claiming it to be too stressful for her, and she and Stark finally kiss. Rhodes departs with the Mark II armor, which he intends to keep.

At a debriefing, Fury informs Stark that while he is "unsuitable" for the "Avengers Initiative", S.H.I.E.L.D. wants him as a consultant and wants the Iron Man armor on the team with a more suitable person using it. Stark agrees on the condition that Senator Stern present him and Col. Rhodes with their medals for bravery.

In a post-credits scene, S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Coulson (Clark Gregg) informs Fury over the phone, "We've found him", as an impact crater in the New Mexico desert is shown to contain Mjolnir, the hammer of Thor.

Thursday, April 29, 2010

Singer and actor Abdillah Murad Md Shari, better known as Achik Spin, was killed in a tragic accident today (Saturday) around 6.15pm, reportedly at kilometre 14.7 of the Kajang-Seremban Highway (LEKAS). Details are still sketchy though the 28 year-old was said to have been killed on the spot as the vehicle he was driving - a Toyota Estima - was engulfed in flames.

Achik was reportedly thrown out of the vehicle due to the impact and died of severe head and body injuries while the car later caught fire and exploded. Achik, made his name with the band Spin as well as several hits from his collaboration with another singer, Siti Nordiana Mohd Alias or Nana, as she is more affectionately known .

Nana said she was last with Achik during their recording for an RTM programme - Gah 1 - earlier this evening. Gah 1 is a live show and Achik performed the song entitled Mencari Ketenangan. "We completed our recording at about 5pm, and I gave him a lift to his car which was parked quite a distance away.

"It never crossed my mind that it would be the last time I would ever see him." The 26 year-old said Achik was accompanied by an as-yet unidentified friend. Contacted at about 8pm by The Malay Mail, Nana said she was in shock after receiving the news just moments before word went out on the Internet.

"I called his sister. In tears, she confirmed Achik's passing but said she too was seeking more details. "All I know right now is that he was driving home to Seremban along the Branang highway and accompanied by a friend who escaped with a broken leg." Achik was married in November 2005 to Tasya @ Rose Zaitul Suriani Wati.

LOS ANGELES-large breasts Artist Christina Hendricks was elected as the sexiest woman in the United States Esquiere magazine.

Hendricks defeated another candidate like Adriana Lima and Megan Fox, by obtaining 30 per cent of men who choose it, quoted okezone from Hollyscoop.

Inside the magazine, Hendricks was writing a letter that describes the desire of men. "We love you. If we fell in love with you, we love you. Kegendutanmu, everything," explained the Showbizspy.

"Talking about your body. You do not understand the power of your body odor itself. A woman, who is now undergoing a relationship with a man must be part of it, because he liked the smell of his body," he said.

"We always remember what you say about another woman's body shape. It is not because we do not accept comments. But learning what you thought how sexy we can make it happen," he explained.

"The man who always looked at breast konstran us, not the man who made us interested," he said.

For Hendricks himself, the man who made him interested is Geoffrey Arend, whom she married since 2009.

the best ways to introduce change into companies

Wednesday, April 21, 2010

It can be difficult for people to adapt to change, but sometimes making the change can be an even more daunting task. As much as people may want to resist change, it can be dreadful to be the one with the job to manage the change effectively, especially in the workplace. Human resource management training and various hospitality courses often discuss the issue of change because all managers and future managers will come across it at some point in their careers. It’s important for managers to know how to handle making changes in the workplace effectively and to get everyone else in the workplace on board with the changes as well.

Experts in the hospitality industry discuss the best ways to introduce change into companies. The first step, experts suggest, is to create a new definition of success. You should set new improvement goals that meet the redefined success. Your new definition of success should be based on improved results. The second step is finding the tools that are going to be required to achieve a very different set of results that the company had been used to achieving in the past.

The last step requires that you work on winning people over and motivating the organization to acquire those new skills and then to stretch to meet the new results objectives. Human resource management training experts agree that this last step can be the most complicated part of the process but it is extremely important.

Hospitality courses teach managers about the importance of making sure this process goes smoothly. Some people need to be treated delicately, and some people will resist change and refuse to get on board. When this happens, experts say it’s best to identify these resisters early on so that you can work over time to try and convert them. If they still won’t change after that, then you need to remove them from the organization. However, this won’t occur often. Experts say that usually about 85% of the organization will most likely accept and adapt to the changes. Only a small percentage of people are resisters.

Managers are taught to not only implement necessary changes, but to also identify and transfer a new set of skills to people so that they can work effectively to achieve the results. If done correctly, implementing change can be very rewarding especially when you get to see companies reach far beyond their goals and become successful. The only roadblock to failure is not moving fast enough to get rid of the resisters. This is usually due to the fact that so much time is spent trying to convert them. It’s good to be optimistic about being able to change these people, but if you don’t move quick enough you might be letting them hold you back which will eventually affect the ability to achieve your goals.

Another problem managers may run into is trying to convince people that change is needed when the performance of the company is doing well. It’s much easier to convince people a change is necessary when performance is down and they are dissatisfied. Although it can be tricky, it’s very important to make people comfortable with taking a risk because it can ultimately advance the company as a whole. Human resource management training experts suggest that you work with groups and teams rather than focus on people individually because groups are more open to taking risks.

Overall it’s important to remember that there is always room for improvement, and the trick is to convince others to think similarly. Experts advise managers to remember to celebrate the smallest successes, look for early wins, reinforce the change process, and root out the resisters as early as possible. If you follow this, you have a high chance for success.
