The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets' Nest

Shari and I just returned from watching the movie, "The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets' Nest".  This is the third movie based on Stieg Larsson's novels about Lisbeth Salander.

I recommended seeing all three movies.  In my mind, they are just as good as the books.  Only the books provide a little more details.

On a scale of 1 to 5, I rate all three movies 5 stars.

My Chinese language assignment 2010-11-20

My assignment is to learn the radical and the root words.  There are 6 main characters for my assignment.
Each character is composed by radical and root word.
1. 病 bing4（疒 + 丙）          丙 bing3
2. 疼 teng2（疒 + 冬）     冬 dong1
3. 痛 tong4（疒 + 甬）     甬 yong3
4. 医 yi1 ( 匚 + 矢）     矢 shi3   *失 shi1 ( different from 矢）
5. 院 yuan4（阝 + 完）     完 wan2（宀 + 元）     元 yuan2
6. 住 zhu4（亻 + 主）     主 zhu3 

My homework is to write at least 10 times of every character( including the root word) and find out its meaning and also make sentences or phrases.

I love learning Chinese!  This is interesting and fun.
