The memory of the novel is a song

The memory of the novel is a song
 When I met L-SS in CL, I was a beautiful girl. I was in contact with my colleagues because of my work relationship. I fell in love with my colleague, because the male family looked down on their academic qualifications.  One time I came to work and wore hot pants, and his legs were particularly white and particularly eye-catching.  L-SS dodges consciously and finds it fun.  L-SY is a little girl who reported earlier than me. There is only one unit, sitting next to it, and sometimes chatting a few words.  After adjusting the unit, I met L-CY who was in love with Gao Caisheng and was the aunt of another colleague.  Later, they were also lucky.  Seeing that piece of white while assisting in work was also blushing.
 At the end of the project, the unit was adjusted and a woman Y-LH was encountered, but none of them could get on line.
 Across the unit, I met couples in the same unit, and sometimes chatted a few words. Some children later heard about divorce.
 The readjustment unit met C-HY and was kind, a wife of a colleague. When he helped the work and saw the white, he had to turn his head.  When transferring, inform <commemorative photo of a group photo> and answer <men and women cannot take photos alone>.
 Afterwards, there are only one girl M when there are few people.  I just wanted to learn the name of others, but it was corrected.  After getting acquainted, he often helped him take pictures and assisted him in his work, becoming dependent on each other and feeling like brothers and sisters.
 When I returned to Unit C, the girl sat farther away. F-WF informed me that I was going to study Erji and thank me.  I often go to sit idle, once I sit for too long and become a rejected household, I go with my colleagues once, and I yell <roll>.
 The newly-adjusted female colleague M-GS, a mother with two daughters, has been in the high school unit for a long time, transferred to the C area, assisted to adapt, and also established friendship.
 It is not very convenient to adjust the J-CT to sit next to it, but it can only adapt.
 The relationship between men and women does not exceed the limit, and friendship will last forever!

trot

Trot是什么?
網路介紹:
韩国演歌(韩语写作트로트;英语一般写作Trot)被称为朝鲜半岛最早期的流行音乐。韩国演歌据说源于狐步舞(Foxtrot)的音乐,所以它的韩语名称亦取自狐步舞的英语的最后几个音节。这种舞踏有简单轻快的乐曲。

個人認為, 在專案管理中最重要的就是風險管控.
(也就是指專案經理的應變能力, 管理能力)

Milestone, 主要是在整個時程中設定一些關鍵指標. 有點像是把整個專案, 切割成多個小專案. 它的目的, 是為了確保在特定的時程, 整體進度能夠達成預期階段性標.

如果在Milestone的時間點工作如預定的時程完成, 那也只是代表了目前進度還在掌控中; 如果沒有完成預期的進度, 專案經理也就能"提早"發現問題, 而不是在專案最後一天才知道.
維基百科介紹:
譯自英文-里程碑是項目管理中使用的工具,用於標記項目時間表中的特定點。這些要點可能表示錨點,例如項目的開始和結束日期,或者是否需要外部審核或輸入和預算檢查。在許多情況下,里程碑不會影響項目持續時間。相反,它們側重於取得成功必須達到的主要進展點。 维基百科(英文)
Milestones are tools used in project management to mark specific points along a project timeline. These points may signal anchors such as a project start and end date, or a need for external review or input and budget checks.

This article needs additional citations for verification. (October 2015)

In many instances, milestones do not impact project duration. Instead, they focus on major progress points that must be reached to achieve success.

Using milestones in scheduling

Milestones can add significant value to project scheduling. When combined with a scheduling methodology such as Program Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT) or the Critical Path Method (CPM), milestones allow project managers to much more accurately determine whether or not the project is on schedule. By constraining the dates associated with milestones, the critical path can be determined for major schedule intervals in addition to the entire project. Slack/float can also be calculated on each schedule interval. This segmentation of the project schedule into intervals allows earlier indication of schedule problems and a better view into the activities whose completion is critical.
Milestones are like dashboard reviews of a project. Number of activities which were planned at the beginning of the project with their individual timelines are reviewed for their status. It also gives an opportunity to check the health of the project.
Milestones are frequently used to monitor the progress, but there are limitations to their effectiveness. They usually show progress only on the critical path, and ignore non-critical activities. It is common for resources to be moved from non-critical activities to critical activities to ensure that milestones are met. This gives the impression that the project is on schedule when actually some activities are being ignored.

UTC

UTC
維基百科介紹:

世界協調時間(英語:Coordinated Universal Time,法語:Temps Universel Coordonné,簡稱UTC)是最主要的世界時間標準,其以原子時秒長為基礎,在時刻上儘量接近於格林威治標準時間中華民國採用CNS 7648的《資料元及交換格式–資訊交換–日期及時間的表示法》(與ISO 8601類似)稱之爲世界協調時間。中華人民共和國採用ISO 8601:2000的國家標準GB/T 7408-2005《數據元和交換格式 信息交換 日期和時間表示法》中亦稱之為協調世界時。

世界協調時間是世界上調節時鐘和時間的主要時間標準,它與0度經線的平太陽時相差不超過1秒[5],並不遵守夏令時。世界協調時間是最接近格林威治標準時間(GMT)的幾個替代時間系統之一。對於大多數用途來說,UTC時間被認為能與GMT時間互換,但GMT時間已不再被科學界所確定。
世界協調時間(UTC)正式形成於1960年國際無線電諮詢委員會的374號建議中[6],該建議由多國時間實驗室共同提出。人們對該時間系統進行過數次調整,直到1972年引入了閏秒機制,調整工作得以簡化。也有很多人提議用一個沒有閏秒的時間系統來替換掉世界協調時間,但目前尚未就此達成一致。
現行的世界協調時間根據國際電信聯盟的建議《Standard-frequency and time-signal emissions》(ITU-R TF.460-6)所確定[7]。UTC基於國際原子時,並通過不規則的加入閏秒來抵消地球自轉變慢的影響[8]。閏秒在必要的時候會被插入到UTC中,以保證世界協調時間(UTC)與世界時(UT1)相差不超過0.9秒[9]

縮寫


世界協調時間的縮寫為UTC。國際電信聯盟希望世界協調時間能夠在所有語言有單一的縮寫。英語法語區的人同時希望各自的語言縮寫-CUT和TUC能夠成為國際標準,結果最後妥協使用UTC[10],這個縮寫跟從世界時變種(UT0、UT1、UT2、UT1R等等)的縮寫模式[11]


機理


世界協調時間把時間分為天、小時、分鐘和秒。通常,天是使用格里曆(公曆)定義的,但也能使用儒略日。每天包含24小時,每小時包含60分鐘。一分鐘通常有60秒,但加入了隨機的閏秒後,一分鐘可能是61秒或59秒[12]。因此,在UTC系統的時間尺度中,秒和比秒小的單位(毫秒、微秒等)其長度是固定的,但是對於分鐘和比分還大的單位(小時、天、周等),其長度是可變的。國際地球自轉服務組織(IERS)做出插入閏秒的決定,並至少在加入前6個月發布在該組織的「公告C」中[13][14] 。閏秒是無法提前很早預知的,因為地球的自轉速率是不可預測的[15]

幾乎所有的UTC天都包含 86,400 SI秒,即每分鐘正好有60秒。然而,由於一個平太陽日比 86,400 SI秒稍微長一些,偶爾會有一個UTC天的最後一分鐘被調整為61秒。多出的這一秒被稱為閏秒,它體現了上一閏秒後比平太陽日多出來的全部時長(大約每天2毫秒)。一個UTC天的最後一分鐘也可以是59秒,以此來適應地球自轉得更快的情況,但是這樣的可能性很小,至今還沒有出現過。UTC天的長度不規則意味著帶小數的儒略日和UTC時間不能很好的對應。
為了保證世界協調時間很接近世界時UT1,UTC從基於TAI的線性方程轉變成另一方程時,偶爾會出現不連續點。這些不連續點以閏秒的形式體現出來,這些不連續點就是造成了UTC天的長度不規則的閏秒。IERS規定不連續點僅出現在6月或12月底,但也有規定將3月或者9月作為備選[16] [17]國際地球自轉服務組織(IERS)跟蹤並公布UTC時間和世界時的差別,即DUT1 = UT1 - UTC,另外,IERS也負責引入不連續的閏秒來保證它們的時間差DUT1在±0.9秒之間。
由於時間膨脹效應,不在大地基準面或者快速運動的的標準時鐘,將不會和UTC時間保持同步。因此,在必要的時候,從大地基準面時鐘有確定關係的時鐘那裡獲取的遙感信號,可以用來提供UTC時間,比如裝在太空飛行器等位置上的時鐘。
如果查詢不到描述兩UTC時刻之間閏秒數量的列表,就不可能計算出這段時間內的精確時差。相應的,計算出一段以未來時刻為終點的時間間隔的時差也是不可能的,因為其中可能包含了數量不定的閏秒(比如,「現在」和「2099-12-31 23:59:59」之間有多少TAI秒)。因此,許多要求長期(多年)高精度測量的科學應用使用TAI來代替UTC時間。TAI也經常被用在不能處理閏秒的系統中。GPS時總是恰好比TAI時落後19秒(TAI時和GPS時都不受UTC中引入的閏秒影響)。

Novel: Girls come to check!  20191210W2
 I was informed yesterday that I would come to see the business today.  No one was seen in the morning, only at 10:00 did I see people coming and checking.  When M saw me, he said kindly, "How do you know I'm here!"  > Help to take work photos, others have protested <Portrait rights, how can I take pictures?>, And return after taking pictures.  M wore a blue-lined black jacket, jeans, and glasses, and her hair was bunched up and scattered in front of her face, looking thin.  M saw it without putting a carry-on bag at my side table. S saw straight and said, "Looks thinner recently!", M asked me, "Are you thin? All weights are the same!" I said, "The face is thinner  !!  > After watching it, I went to see the work of another unit.  Not long after turning to see me, I also took a photo by the way, checked and signed, and then chatted while sliding my mobile phone, wearing a mask for a cold, and taking medicine for coughing.  Every time I come, my body is not very good.  Tell me about the door god, don't offend people.  At noon, M said he would ask me to eat Chinese food together. She ate chicken noodles with mushrooms and I ate chicken noodles.  She left the chicken leg to me, but she fell to the ground and missed it!  At noon, she gave her a large annual calendar X1, a small table calendar X2, a notebook X1, and a three-year notepad X1. All of them were given to M, and she rested after eating. M asked me if I had a lounge chair, and I said no.  M was sleeping on the bench, and I was busy with other things.  Sit at three in the afternoon, set off to watch the field, and then take him to the MRT station.  Leave separately.  End this day's inspection!  M is here, and it feels like family, former colleagues, and now everyone else is retiring, there is only one left!  Cherish it!

The film had its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 7, 2019, and was theatrically released in the United States on November 22, 2019, by Sony Pictures Releasing. It received positive reviews from critics and has grossed $13 million.


Plot


Lloyd Vogel, an Esquire journalist who recently won a national award for his writing, attends his sister Lorraine's wedding with his wife Andrea and newborn son Gavin. During the reception, he starts a fistfight with his father Jerry when Jerry taunts him over his family. The next day, Lloyd's editor Ellen assigns him to interview Fred Rogers for a 400-word article about heroes, and after a phone call with Rogers, Lloyd travels to the WQED studio in Pittsburgh to interview him. During the interview, Rogers is dismissive of his fame and displays concern for Lloyd's nose injury, learning of his grudge against Jerry after several questions he directs to Lloyd. Meanwhile, Jerry apologizes to Lloyd for the fight, but Lloyd rebuffs Jerry's attempt at reconciliation.

Determined to find that Rogers' nice attitude is just an act, Lloyd watches several of Rogers' talks and episodes from his show, but cannot find anything. When Rogers visits New York City, Lloyd visits him in his hotel for another interview. During the interview, Rogers dodges Lloyd's questions and reminisces upon raising his two sons, provoking Lloyd into leaving. Lloyd returns home to find Andrea making dinner for Jerry and his girlfriend Dorothy; Lloyd berates Jerry for cheating on his mother Lila while she was dying of cancer and orders him to leave, but Jerry suffers a heart attack and is transported to a hospital. Andrea attempts to convince Lloyd to stay in the hospital overnight with Jerry and Dorothy, but Lloyd refuses and follows Rogers to his Pittsburgh studio, where he collapses on the set of the Neighborhood of Make-Believe out of exhaustion. Lloyd dreams about his repressed childhood trauma; in his dream, he stumbles into an episode of Rogers' show about hospitals, finds himself wearing rabbit ears and shrunk down to the size of Daniel Striped Tiger and King Friday XIII while Rogers and Andrea tower over him, and visits a dying Lila, who urges him to release his anger.

Rogers and his crew surround the unconscious Lloyd, and he and his wife Joanne bring Lloyd to their home. After Lloyd awakens, he and Rogers visit a restaurant, where Rogers asks Lloyd to spend one minute thinking of the people who "loved him into being" and encourages him to forgive Jerry. Lloyd apologizes to Andrea for leaving her and Gavin at the hospital and visits Jerry and Dorothy at their home. He learns from Dorothy that Jerry is dying of a prolonged illness, the real reason for Jerry's attempts to reconnect with Lloyd. Lloyd forgives Jerry, promises to be a better father to Gavin, and writes an article about Rogers' impact on his life to complete his assignment from Ellen. Lorraine, her husband Todd, and Rogers visit Jerry, and Rogers asks Jerry to pray for him before he departs. Jerry dies shortly after Rogers' visit and Lloyd's 10,000 word article, titled "Can You Say ... Hero?", is published as Esquire's cover story in its latest issue.


Cast


Tom Hanks as Fred Rogers:

The creator and host of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood. To prepare for his role, Hanks visited the Fred Rogers Center at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe, Pennsylvania for research in the Fred Rogers Archives and also watched the 2018 documentary film Won't You Be My Neighbor?. At the 2019 Toronto International Film Festival, Hanks recalled watching "hundreds of hours" of footage of Rogers on set and behind the scenes in order to get into character. Director Marielle Heller noted that Rogers "doesn't have the dynamic nature you need for a protagonist for a movie" and considered him "the antagonist [...] who comes into someone's life and flips it upside down through his philosophy and the way he lived his life".


Matthew Rhys as Lloyd Vogel:

A jaded journalist who is assigned to profile Rogers for the magazine Esquire. Lloyd is based loosely on journalist Tom Junod, whose encounter with Rogers was adapted into the film. Heller described Lloyd as the viewer's "entry point into Fred's teachings" and expressed hope that Lloyd's character development and growth as a new father would compel viewers to reflect upon themselves.


Susan Kelechi Watson as Andrea Vogel:

A public attorney, Lloyd's wife, and a fan of Rogers' show. Watson, herself a fan of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood, described her character as a "career woman" who faces unique challenges of patience and adaptation as the mother of a newborn.


Chris Cooper as Jerry Vogel:

Lloyd's estranged father and a philanderer who cheated on his wife Lila and abandoned Lloyd and Lorraine when they were children. In a press interview for the film, Cooper described his character as "multidimensional" and compared filming a scene with Hanks to seeing the "eyes of God".


Additional cast members include Enrico Colantoni as Bill Isler, the President & CEO of Family Communications; Maryann Plunkett as Joanne Rogers, Fred's wife; Tammy Blanchard as Lorraine, Lloyd's sister and Todd's wife; Wendy Makkena as Dorothy, Jerry's girlfriend; Carmen Cusack as Margy, a producer of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood; Jessica Hecht as Lila Vogel, Lloyd's mother and Jerry's ex-wife; Noah Harpster as Todd, Lorraine's husband and Lloyd's brother-in-law; Maddie Corman as Betty Aberlin, an actress starring as Lady Aberlin on Mister Rogers' Neighborhood; Christine Lahti as Ellen, Lloyd's editor; and Jordan, Naomi, and Zoey Harsh as Gavin Vogel, Lloyd's son.

Notable cameos in the film include Rogers' wife Joanne, Mr. McFeely actor David Newell, Family Communications head Bill Isler, and Mister Rogers' Neighborhood producer Margy Whitmer, who appear as customers in a restaurant that Rogers and Lloyd meet in; Fred Rogers makes an uncredited appearance in archive footage of his show during the ending credits, singing the song "You've Got To Do It".


Production


On January 29, 2018, it was announced that Sony's TriStar Pictures had bought the worldwide distribution rights to the film You Are My Friend, a biographical film based on a 1998 Esquire magazine article about television personality Fred Rogers, who would be played by Tom Hanks. The film's script by Micah Fitzerman-Blue and Noah Harpster appeared among the 2013 Black List of best unproduced screenplays and it would be directed by Marielle Heller, while producers would be Big Beach's Marc Turtletaub and Peter Saraf along with Youree Henley.

In July 2018, Matthew Rhys joined the cast of the film to play the journalist Tom Junod, with production set to start in September 2018. In August 2018, Chris Cooper was added to the cast to play Junod's father, and in September, Susan Kelechi Watson was added. In October 2018, Enrico Colantoni, Maryann Plunkett, Tammy Blanchard, Wendy Makkena, Sakina Jaffrey, Carmen Cusack, Harpster and Maddie Corman joined the cast of the film. In 2018, Nate Heller was chosen to score the film.

Principal photography on the film began on September 10, 2018 in Pittsburgh, with several sets converted into New York City. Filming also took place in Fred Rogers Studio at WQED (TV) where the late television host recorded Mister Rogers' Neighborhood, and the Jewish Community Center in Squirrel Hill. The crew consulted with original crew members from Rogers' television series and also brought in the same broadcast cameras and monitors used in the original production. The film received tax credits of approximately $9.5 million against a production budget of $45 million for filming in Pittsburgh. Production wrapped on November 9, 2018.

On October 12, 2018, sound mixer James Emswiller had a heart attack and fell from a second-story balcony. He was taken to University of Pittsburgh Medical Center-Mercy, where he was pronounced dead.

On December 27, 2018, it was announced the film had been officially titled A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood.

The film is set in the city of Kōchi, on the Japanese island of Shikoku. It concerns a love triangle that develops between two good friends and a new girl who transfers to their high school from Tokyo.
Ocean Waves was an attempt by Studio Ghibli to allow their younger staff members to make a film reasonably cheaply. However, it ended up going both over budget and over schedule.
In December 2016, GKIDS announced that the film would be remastered for a limited theatrical release, beginning on December 28, 2016, with a home video release in Spring 2017.

Plot

This article's plot summary may be too long or excessively detailed. (February 2013)

At Kichijōji Station, Tokyo, Taku Morisaki glimpses a familiar woman on the platform opposite. Later, as his flight to Kōchi Prefecture takes off, he narrates the events that brought her into his life. The story is told in flashback.
In Kōchi, two years prior, Taku receives a call from his friend, Yutaka Matsuno, asking to meet at their high school. He finds Yutaka at a window, watching an attractive female transfer student whom Yutaka was asked to show around. The boys discuss their upcoming school trip to Hawaii. At the school gates, Taku is introduced to the new girl, Rikako Muto. She thanks Yutaka for providing directions to a bookstore. Taku teases Yutaka about his infatuation.
Rikako is academically gifted and good at sports, but also arrogant. Taku believes she is unhappy about leaving Tokyo. His mother learns from gossip that a divorce brought Rikako's mother to Kōchi. In a phone conversation with Yutaka, he discovers that Rikako is living away from the family house.
The school year ends, heralding the Hawaii trip. Taku, suffering from an upset stomach, is stopped in the hotel lobby by Rikako. She explains that she has lost her money and asks to borrow some. As Taku has a part-time job, he lends her ¥60,000. Promising to repay him, she warns not to tell anyone. As she departs, Taku sees a stern Yutaka and feels compelled to explain. Later, Rikako admonishes him for telling Yutaka about the money, saying that he also loaned her ¥20,000.
Back in Kōchi, the third year begins with Rikako making a friend, Yumi Kohama. Rikako hasn't returned Taku's money and he wonders if she has forgotten. Out of the blue, a distressed Yumi calls Taku, explaining that Rikako had tricked her into coming to the airport on the pretence of a concert trip, only to discover that their real destination is Tokyo, tickets paid for with Taku's money. He races to the airport, sending Yumi home, saying that he will accompany Rikako.
Upon arrival, it appears that Rikako has not forewarned her father, interrupting his planned trip with a girlfriend. Her father thanks Taku, repays the loan and arranges a room at the Hyatt Regency hotel. Later, Rikako explains that when her parents were fighting, she'd always sided with her father, but had now discovered he wasn't on her side. Comforting her, Taku offers his bed and attempts to sleep in the bathtub. The next morning, Rikako seems back to her normal self and kicks Taku out so that she can change clothes to meet a friend for lunch. Taku wanders around the city. After catching up on sleep at the hotel, Taku receives a call from Rikako asking to be rescued from former boyfriend, Okada, who is not as she remembered him.
Returning home, Rikako ignores Taku, but doesn't hide from others that they spent a night together. Taku discovers this from Yutaka, who had earlier confronted Rikako to confess his feelings toward her, but had been rebuffed. Taku confronts Rikako in class for hurting his best friend, calling her "The worst!". She responds by slapping him and he slaps her in return.
The autumn school cultural festival arrives and Rikako, who has been avoiding Yosakoi dance rehearsals, becomes more distant from the other girls, many of whom openly dislike her. Confronting her behind the school, Rikako stands firm as one girl, believing that Rikako was flirting with her boyfriend, attempts to strike her but is held back. Taku, who has seen all, approaches Rikako and comments that he is impressed with the way she handled herself. She slaps him but runs away with regret. Yutaka confronts a somewhat stunned Taku, who tries to explain. Yutaka punches him to the ground calling him an idiot before walking away. None of the three talk to each other for the rest of the year.
In the present, Taku's plane lands and he is offered a lift home by Yutaka, who explains he punched him because he'd realized Taku had held back his feelings for his sake. At a class reunion, former student president Shimizu mentions she had met Rikako earlier. She explains that as Rikako was attending Kochi University, she had flown to Tokyo for her school break, missing the reunion. Taku realizes that Rikako was the woman he'd seen at the station. Walking home, Yumi tells Taku that she too had met Rikako, explaining she couldn't make it to the reunion and that she wanted to meet someone, but wouldn't say who... just that he slept in bathtubs.
In Tokyo, Taku again sees Rikako across the platforms, but this time runs to find her. As the train pulls away, he finds Rikako and realises that he had always been in love with her.

Production

The film is based on Himuro's novel which was first serialized, with illustrations by Katsuya Kondō, starting from the February 1990 issue of Animage magazine. The monthly instalments were collected in a hard cover book published in February 1993. Kondō served as the character designer and animation director for the adaptation. Production of Ocean Waves was controlled by Studio Ghibli, but much of the animation was produced with the assistance of J.C.Staff, Madhouse Studios, and Oh! Production, who had worked with Ghibli on past projects. This film is the first Ghibli anime directed by someone other than Hayao Miyazaki or Isao Takahata. Tomomi Mochizuki, who was 34 years old at the time, was brought in to direct. The film was an attempt to make anime solely by the young staff members, mostly in their 20s and 30s. Their motto was to produce "quickly, cheaply and with quality", but ultimately it went over budget and over schedule  and Mochizuki claimed he developed Peptic ulcer because of stress.

Reception

The website Animé Café gave the film 4/5 stars, noting this to be "A graceful and mature offering from Ghibli's younger generation".
Otaku USA gave the film a mediocre review.
The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes gave it a rating of 88%, based on 16 critical reviews, with an average score of 6/10. On another aggregator Metacritic, it has a score of 73 out of 100, based on four critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".

Distribution

Disney originally had the rights of distribution of Ocean Waves in United States. but they never released the film onto any Home Media platform. In 2016, GKIDS announced that they are going to release Ocean Waves in North American theaters starting on December 28 of that year and expanding during early 2017. In 2008, distribution company Wild Bunch announced that it had licensed the film to a number of European releasing companies, including Optimum. It was released in the UK under the title Ocean Waves on January 25, 2010 shortly before the planned theatrical release of Ponyo, as part of the Studio Ghibli Collection. As with the film Only Yesterday (until 2016), it was released with subtitles only.
In Spain the film is distributed by Aurum and was released on DVD in November 2008. The DVD includes Japanese and Spanish audio tracks and Spanish subtitles. It was titled as Puedo escuchar el mar (in English translation I Can Hear the Sea).

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days is also the last film in the series to feature the original cast members, as many of the cast (such as Zachary Gordon, Robert Capron and Devon Bostick) outgrew their roles and new actors were cast for the subsequent films in the series, starting with Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Long Haul, which was released five years later.

Plot

The Heffley family attends a pool party at the community pool, where the family meets Lenwood Heath, a former trouble-making friend of Rodrick who is now a model student after attending a prep school known as Spag Union. Greg's father Frank thinks about enrolling Greg there. Greg's summer vacation starts off badly: Frank bans video games in anger at Greg's laziness, and his mother Susan starts a book club for all the boys in the neighborhood, but she does not see their books as real literature causing the boys to never come back the next day. Frank is also getting jealous of the neighbor's athletic kids, and after his video game ban, Susan forces Frank and Greg to bond with each other, but their bonding activities end in disaster.
A few weeks later, Greg's best friend, Rowley Jefferson, takes Greg to the local country club, where his family are members of. Greg enjoys the lifestyle there and the fact that his crush, Holly Hills, teaches tennis there and he doesn't have to go to the book club. Greg returns home to learn that Frank signed him up for an unpaid summer internship at his work without his consent, and Greg lies about having a job at the country club. Frank and Susan are delighted and give him a starter cell phone, called a "Ladybug", which only allows him to call home or 911.
Later, Rowley invites Greg on a family trip to their beach house near the Boardwalk, but Greg finds the lifestyle banal and attempts to escape. He tries to e-mail Susan, but accidentally sends his email to everyone on Mr. Jefferson's contacts, including his work clients. After Mr. Jefferson sees that he has 949 emails, Greg tries to call home using his Ladybug phone, but the phone rejects the call. Greg accidentally calls 911. Just as Mr. Jefferson tries to question Greg, the police arrive. They almost arrest Rowley's father for absent-mindedly coming to the door with a bread knife, making the officers believe that he tried to hurt Greg. Greg is then sent home early, and Rowley doesn't allow Greg to tag along with him to the country club because of the beach house incident, but Greg sneaks in, meets up with Holly and her sister Heather and manages to get Rodrick's band Löded Diper a gig at Heather's Sweet 16 birthday party, much to Rodrick's delight.
Rowley and Greg quickly make up, but Rowley is unable to attend the club, forcing Greg to sneak in again. One day, when Greg goes to swim in the local pool, he decides to get on the high dive, only to be afraid. When a little girl forces him to jump off, only to lose his trunks. He is then forced to borrow a girl's swimsuit all the way to the gate, where he retrieves his trunks. One morning, Frank drops Greg off, only to be confronted by Rowley's father; Greg has built up a $260 fruit smoothie bill from his time at the country club. When Frank attempts to explain the situation, the manager informs him that the club does not employ minors, and Greg is exposed. As a result, when he receives a Spag Union disc in the mail, he fears he will be sent there.
Rodrick informs Greg that a "Wilderness Weekend" event could be a way to avoid Spag Union. Their troop proves weak compared to Frank's boss, Stan's, troop. After a Camp story, Greg continues to mess things up and Frank tells him that everyone messes up. After the boys overhear Stan and his troop insulting Frank, Greg attempts to set up a plan for revenge by using traps and finds out that Stan's troop has been using electric and other appliances including pre-cooked meals and portable TV's rather than actually camping. Stan arrives at the tent, Greg manages to escape while Stan accidentally throws his own tent into the campfire, and Greg admits he was responsible but his friends tell him that he did it to defend his honor. Frank, having lost his respect for Stan, then confronts him with the electronic conveniences (although he was jealous of Stan throughout the movie), and Stan runs into Greg's trap, leaving him humiliated.
Frank ends up revealing to Greg that he was never really all that into camping anyway, and decides not to send Greg to Spag Union, much to Greg's surprise and delight. As the father and son talk things over, Frank gives Greg advice on learning from your mistakes and taking responsibility for your actions, and the two of them ultimately realize that they're actually much more alike than they originally thought.
At Heather's Sweet 16 birthday party a few days later, Löded Diper performs a hard rock cover of "Baby" by Justin Bieber and Ludacris, in an attempt for Rodrick to win over Heather. However, Rodrick accidentally knocks over a huge ice bust of Heather, which results in her losing her temper and accidentally smashing a chocolate fountain with a microphone stand (while trying to hit Rodrick), splashing chocolate all over her and her friend Madison, and the party ends in disaster. Holly then implies that she likes Greg by holding his hand, and in the final scene, Greg, Holly, and Rowley all hang out together at the local pool. Greg admits that while his summer didn't go the way he expected, everything turned out all right.

Filming at Eagle Ridge Outdoor pool took place during the end of August 2011. The municipal outdoor pool scenes at the beginning and the end of the movie were filmed at Steveston Outdoor pool in Richmond, BC. Filming occurred at the Steveston Outdoor pool during the beginning of September 2011. The Chinese Bunkhouse at the Steveston Shipyards in Richmond, BC was the location of the Wilderness Explorers cabin for Troop 133. During filming, stars Zachary Gordon and Robert Capron, were seen riding the Corkscrew at Playland at Vancouver's fair, the PNE. Capron had to wear a wig for this movie, as his hair was shaved to play the role of Young Curly in The Three Stooges, as explained in The Wimpy Kid Movie Diary book. A poster was leaked in March 2012. A teaser trailer was attached to The Three Stooges. An advance screening for the film was held on July 31, 2012.

Critical reception

On Rotten Tomatoes, a review aggregator, the film has an approval rating of 51% based on 71 reviews and an average rating of 5.5/10. The site's critical consensus reads, "Overly familiar and a bit too reliant on slapstick, the sitcom-like Dog Days fails to improve upon previous installments and will likely appeal to few outside its target audience." On Metacritic, the film has a score of 54 out of 100 based on 22 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews". Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "A−" on an A+ to F scale.
Abby West of Entertainment Weekly gave the film a B+ and wrote "Though often self-centered and conniving, Greg remains a likable kid, and the movie entertains by pulling off over-the-top scenarios that set up digestible life lessons for youngsters." OregonLive.com praised Zachary Gordon's acting, writing, "[h]is easy likeability and general relatability are perhaps two of the biggest keys to Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days."
Matt Mueller of OnMilwaukee gave the movie a negative review, calling it "manic, forced, predictable, scatterbrained and often times unpleasant." Mueller criticized the movie's "overstuffed screenplay" for being "very attention-deficit, cramming in numerous wacky plot elements, most of them solely existing for predictable jokes that were met in my screening with interminable silence." He wrote that "[s]ome of the storylines could've made for decent movies on their own," particularly the one where Greg joins the Boy Scouts, but that they were only brought back "when the screenplay needs another forced comic set piece or ill-fated attempt at wringing unearned emotion." Mueller disliked Greg's behavior, writing "He's lazy and wildly selfish, taking advantage of his friend's unbridled kindness. His trip with Rowley's family ends with Greg insulting the entire clan and getting the dad arrested by the police. Later in the film, he runs up the family's bill sneaking into the country club. What part of this behavior is charming?" The review concludes with Mueller writing, "In Dog Days' lone earnest moment, Rowley astutely explains that his parents' disappointment is worse than their yelling. In that case, I'm not angry that a movie like this can take the joys of childhood and make them so joyless and unpleasant. I'm disappointed."

Home media

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days was released on iTunes on December 4, 2012. It was released on DVD and Blu-ray in the United States on December 18, 2012.
It was released on Redbox on January 15, 2013.
An animated short film set after the events of Dog Days, Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Class Clown, was released on the home media release of Dog Days, with Zachary Gordon reprising his role as Greg Heffley, and audio of various other cast members from Dog Days covering the film.

Sequel
At the time of its release, Dog Days was described as the last live-action film in the franchise. In August 2012, while doing press for the film, Jeff Kinney, Zachary Gordon and Robert Capron each indicated that there were no plans for a fourth film, but did not dismiss the possibility entirely. Kinney replied to inquiries regarding the possibility of another sequel, stating, "At present, we don’t have a fourth film in development, but you never know!"
And when describing the likelihood of starring in another film in the series, Gordon explained, "[Dog Days] most likely will be the last movie. The main problem is [the cast] is getting older. You can't stop it. There's no way to temporarily stop us from changing and growing up. You know, that's the problem because the characters are supposed to be timeless." In March 2013, Zachary Gordon stated in a Spreecast live stream that there would not be a fourth live-action film. Jeff Kinney has indicated that instead of doing a live-action film of the sixth novel Cabin Fever, he would like to see it adapted into an animated film, stating in an interview, "I hope that it gets made into an animated movie. I'd really like to see it turn into an animated television special."
On July 29, 2016, it was announced that a new movie with a different cast based on the 9th book, The Long Haul, had begun production. The film was released on May 19, 2017.
