Theft

Blog #71 – Read the following article on identify theft.  What did you find interesting?  4-5 sentences..  http://www.cnn.com/2009/TECH/12/07/identity.theft.costs/index.html

I think the woman makes a very good point when she talks about the emotional hit more to the physical damage done with identity theft. I don’t really think people understand all the pains that someone would go through with bad credit not because of their own actions. You would be denied for many things with bad credit, you wouldn’t be able to do things like take out loans, buy a house or car. You would be left stranded trying to work through the actions of someone else. And this event not being your fault for no reason.

New Phone

Blog #72 – Go to the following website:http://www.cnn.com/2009/TECH/06/08/apple.iphone.wwdc/index.html  What do you think of this new phone and why?

I think its very sleek and classy, its slim and compact and has many interesting features most phones do not carry, the public is very lucky they are keeping the price low and and the quality high. I know quite a few people with IPhones and they all seem th be very pleased with the purchase and stick to it, they don’t change phones and enjoy all the activities  such as games and apps that come with the IPhone.

Bullying

Blog #73- Read the following article. What did you learn about bullying?http://www.cnn.com/2009/CRIME/12/10/social.media.bullying/index.html

I learned that teenagers are very closed minded and need to realize there’s going to be people with different interests. I bet anyone a million dollars that there’s someone out there bigger then this girl who would like to punch her for not liking something, every human being was built to be a cridict, we like things and we don’t like things. No one deserves to get punched because of their opinion, let alone harrassed by that many people for showing different interests, and I think this tough teenage girl who thinks this “posse” is so great should open her mind and get a taste of her own medicine to realize the concequences of her actions.

Hell’s Kitchen Chef

The chef is in trouble because he treats women and his wife horribly, the press ask him his side of the story and he claims to everyone that it is a publicity stunt. Even the prime minister is addressing this matter but yet the chef sticks to his story about it being nothing and all these stories being rumors and not to beleive everything you hear from the press.

X-box 360

Blog #13 -  What is the best price/deal  that you can find on a new X-Box 360 game console on Ebay?  Why do you think it’s a good price/deal?  Do you use ebay at all?  Why or why not? 

The best price i could find $128.97, which personally i think is a very good pric e for a used game console because they aren’t very old and it comes with alot of extra details. I myself do not use ebay but my mother does and it seems very common and easy to use.  I do not use it because I don’t have a credit card and without it you can’t order andything.  

Fantasy Vacation

Blog #8 - If you could take a vacation, hop on an airplane and go anywhere in the world tomorrow, whre would you go and why?

     My dream vacation would probably to venice or cancun, I chose these two places because they seem so appealing. I would go to venice just because i love water and to go shopping and sail around for an entire trip would be amazing. I would go to cancun because its always warm there and its completely relaxing, i can't think of a better way then to just sit on the beach all day.

Technology

Blog #2 - a) List the kinds of products and services that you think are included in the communication production industry sector. (ex. Service: news broadcasts, Product: news papers). b) What product and or service could you live without. c) What product and or service could you NOT live without.

     I think the worlds communication is cell phones (texting), computers (emails), television (broadcasts), post(mail) and land lines (house phones). I could manage my life fine without Television. It would be easy to go on life with it, because most thinga you see on television are posted on the internet and are able to view from your computer. I could not live with out phone communication, either cell phones or land lines, its just a very fast efficient way to communicate. With technology these days you can send pictures, links and access the internet throught our phones.
