Psych pilot episode

On Friday for our mystery unit we watched the pilot episode of Psych. It is about a guy named Shawn Spencer who can notice and remember things really well. In the pilot episode the son of a rich family has been kidnapped along with his dog. But things soon get more complicated but I,m not going to spoil it for you.

Now how many elements of a mystery were there. Well there was a protagonist, an antagonist, a red herring, there was a witness, there were clues, evidence, and an ending that will surprise you. This is a pretty good episode and now I think I will be collecting the DVDs of it. But I still think the best crime show is Monk.

Monk voodoo episode

Today in class for our mystery subject we watched an episode from monk to learn the elements of a mystery. Turns out that episode had all the elements apart from a witness mysteries do not need witnesses sometimes. Also the ending was quite surprising as you think its this guy and in the last minute its someone who you least expect it to be. This episode was quite good but I have seen better episodes of Monk.

Plastiki

Plastiki is a boat that is made mostly out of plastic to draw attention to all of the plastic waste in the ocean. The plan of the plastiki is that it will sail from San Francisco to australia.

I think the plastiki is an amazing achievment since the boat is nearly made completely out of plastic. Its also really amazing the rest of the boat is made out of other materials that can be recycled.

There is actually a cause also. Its not like somebody was just bored and decided to make this. This is to draw attention of how carelessly we throw plastic. Even more the plastiki is going to sail through that huge plastic mass in the ocean about twice the size of texas, the second biggest state in the US.
