Meet Paul Potts

Every one has special ability. He can demonstrate it in a good way or a bad way. Sometimes when you are a child you start to dream about something that you love it so much. However, many dreams are dead because something stupid happened to you. In some case, your family doesn’t like your dream so they will break it in many ways. For example, they will talk all the time about the defects. In addition, school time is so important because it influence student’s personality. On the other hand, some people keep dreaming and they never give up. I believe they have loved and thought about their dreams more than anything else. For example, Paul Potts became the winner of the first series of ITV’s Britain’s Got Talent singing operatic arias. Paul had trouble with being bullied in school. Until June 19, 2007 Potts worked as a manager at the Bridgend Carphone Warehouse, a mobile phone store. In fact, he didn’t forget about his dream. I think he is awesome and wonderful.

Two-Way Television

It is amazing to have something like this TV. There are people who are crazy about a new technology so it will have a good marketing.

Television

TV every where

Television has advantages and disadvantages. First thing, it has opened the entire world in one screen. Today, you can watch a live news from the south when you in the north. Most important, it has education, medical, discovery, entertainment, family programs to satisfy every rank. Some people learned a new language from TV. They watch moves, news and programs. In my vision, it has participated to remove culture form generation to another. In addition, TV put you in the world table so you can know anything you like to know. Also, it share us to enlighten people about how the drugs, smoking, terrorism, aids are dangers.

loool

On the other hand, television destroyed communication between families. If we look at the past we observe when family set together in lunch or dinner time they talk with each other. Because they were busy during the day. They solve problems or the children tell their parents about their day in school. However, now most of people have TV in each room. Sometime, they have it in the bathroom. As a result, when they are eating they probably watch some program or news.

TV

Each member in the family has favorite program even children. In education side, TV affects our children in many ways. They always do what his or her favorite character do. In fact, TV is partaking parents to educate their child. For example, Dora is bilingual and she teaches children basic Spanish words. Children also learn with Dora how to observe situations and solve problems. TV takes a big part in families’ life. By time, it will create gap between them.

children and TV

As a child I watched television

Further, it impresses in what they believe and it can convey the wrong idea into their mind. Therefore, people modify their attitude because they have been influenced by TV. People today watch TV unduly. In some case, TV occurs changing in people characters. It provokes people by some news. I think TV transmits information around some countries that give the nation a bad stereotype about them.

no comment

Finally, all the technologies that we use now have equal advantage and disadvantage. Consequently, we most take the benefit form them and use it in the right direction. People have to control TV before it can control them.

Is the i-Phone better than Others ?

The world becomes smaller with easy communication that we have today. There are many difference ways to communicate with our families, friends and business. One of these ways is cell phone. Today with a developed technologic we have many kinds of phones that have advantages. So it depends about the person what he needs and what he interests in.

In this post I will compare between three amazing phones. First one, K-jam from i-mate Company. Second one i-Phone from Apple Company. Third one, Nokia N95 from Nokia Company. I want talk about their size, internet, and phone calls.

Size:

K-jam
Dimensions 4.25″ x 2.28″ x 0.93″ (108 x 58 x 24 mm)
Weight 5.64 oz (160 g)

i-phone:

Weight 4.8 ounces / 135 grams

iPhone1

Nokia N95

Internet:

K-jam:
Browsing the Internet on the K-JAM is a pleasant experience, the size and resolution of the screen and the performance of the radio in both Wi-Fi and EDGE worked well.

i-phone:

iPhone features a rich HTML email client and Safari — the most advanced web browser ever on a portable device — which automatically syncs bookmarks from your PC or Mac. Safari also includes built-in Google and Yahoo! search. iPhone is fully multi-tasking, so you can read a web page while downloading your email in the background over Wi-Fi or EDGE.

Phone calls

K-jam:

The quality of phone calls is very good; the audio electronics have clearly been optimized. The volume from the internal speaker is modest, not loud. The performance of the speaker phone is commendable.

I-phone:

iPhone is a revolutionary new mobile phone that allows you to make a call by simply tapping a name or number in your address book, a favorites list, or a call log. It also automatically syncs all your contacts from a PC, Mac, or Internet service. And it lets you select and listen to voicemail messages in whatever order you want — just like email.

Nokia N95:

Contacts: advanced contacts database with support for multiple phone and e-mail details per entry, also supports thumbnail pictures and groups.

All these phones that I listed have advantages and disadvantages. I think we can’t find all what we need in one phone. As a result, it depends about the user using. We have to think what is most important and avoid the good option that we don’t need.

About myself I chose the K-JAM. I thought that I need to a comfortable way to use the internet with the special keyboard that I can use it for typing. Also, I can download any program that I need like navigation, music program, dictionary, internet phone which I can call and talk with my family free by internet, video program, and so on. Briefly, it is like small laptop with a cute size.

The places where we live, work, shop, and play affect human health and the natural environment. How and where construction and development occurs can affect energy use, outdoor and indoor air quality, ecosystem quality and services, and natural and animal habitat protection. EPA programs and resources help states and communities achieve economic and environmental benefits through green building principles and smart growth and by preserving open space and farmland. EPA’s new Energy Star home certification promotes greener and more efficient household construction.

Tiny Home:

Each one likes to live in big home even a castle. However, there are people prefer to live in tiny home. When people are living in this kind of home they probably will be satisfied. Many people are attracted to tiny homes, cabins, cottages and bungalows because they are more affordable. Also, they are so functional and personal. Tiny homes can be truly magical. Sometimes people like to notice smaller things.

Shopping

nicolegoesshopping

Whether it’s Paris Hilton futzing with shopping bags in L.A., Reese Witherspoon sifting through clothing racks or Heidi Klum browsing the boutiques of Beverly Hills,

Always women like to go shopping without stop. I think celebrities are crazy about shopping. I care about fashion. But I don’t spend long time watching it.
