Why is media so important in American society

May 27, 2010

The media is the control of the American society.The media is often as the bridge of the USA .The media influence has grown with the advance of technology, first there was the telegraph, then radio, newspaper, magazines, television and now the internet.

 We live in a society that depends on information and communication to keep moving in the right direction and do our daily activities like work, entertainment, health care, education, personal relationships, traveling and anything else that we have to do.In our work we usually know what we have to do based on our experience and studies, however on our daily lives we rely on the media to get the current news and facts about what is important and what we should   be aware of.We have put our trust on the media as an authority to give us news, entertainment and education.  However, the  influence of mass media on our kids, teenagers, and society is so big that we should know how it really works.

The media influence on public opinion.Moreover I want to say that the media influence on society, politicians influence  on the media.So politicians shaping people’s attitudes and beliefs.The American people live their life base on what the media say and show.

Why is Cellphone very important in Society

May 21, 2010

Cell phones have become very important in life and society. Parents are able to keep in touch with their kids through phones.With the help of cellphones parents will not be worry where their kids are at. Phones have changed the way we love, live, and work.It has made long distance interactions easy.We can place calls worldwide and keep in touch with families and friends.Example like me i left my country 7 years ago,, through cellphone i can keep in touch with ma family and friend. I called home everyday and know whats going on there.Cellphones have even saved lives in emergency situations.

This is because cellphones provide us the ability to communicate .Cellphones are even used as a camera, a video recorder and  even as a radio and mp3 player all in one.People record crimes and  send it to the TV station  during war.Cellphone is another media that spread news around the world.In emergency situations, our cellphones are the ways wherein people can reach us and in the same way through those phones we can reach the necessary  people for help.

   In the event that an old friend is looking for you, there are websites with a cellphone directory for people to use to find an old friend, and a lost relative too.

Why do people spend so much time on facebook

May 14, 2010

The answer is to communicate.People want to meet new people, make friends, get connect to old friends and have fun.In general, i have observed and found following reasons for people spending so much time on networking sites.People socialize are great way to meet new people and make new friends. I have made a bunch of good friends through Facebook.

Finding & keeping in touch with old friends and family.Facebook is really helpful in finding old friends. I personally use Facebook to find my old schoolmates, and old friends whom i have lost contact with. I also use it to keep in touch with  old and current friends. When a person is bored and has nothing to do, he/she can pass the time by chatting or meeting new people on Facebook.

Promotion and advertising can be fined of professionals and business owners advertising their music, bands, brands, products, or whatever they do or sell.Most of the these people are spending so much on Facebook to promoting of whatever they do or sell.They don’t have any interest in communicating. They  send requests to unknown people and try to find some free publicity.

Another  reason for spending time on Facebook is pursuing a certain interest. This could be it getting in touch with people who might be offering you a better job, making friends among potential buyers of your products

How Does Society Recognize Gay Men

May 7, 2010

In this society we recognize gays as any man  acting feminine.Thats is  a wrong judgement, because there are so many men out there that are gay,and we can’t be  recognize. A man acting like a woman does not mean that he  is a gays. Some woman act like a man and does not mean they gay . Men who were raised in a house of only women can something act like female, because they were around to women a lot.They tend to copy what their sister do.I have a cousin who act like a girl, because we were raised in the same household.

I remember it was him and I that grown up together.He sometimes does things I do and still do some male things and, that does not mean he is a gay.My ex-friend sometimes make me thinks that he was a gaybecause the way he sometimes talk or act like a woman and, that drive me crazy, but he was not a gay.

Some people thought that any man behave like woman is a gay.Guys who talk or do things girls do, does not mean they are gay.No.There are two kinds of gay.A feminine gay men and, real gay men .A feminine gay love doing what woman does and while real gay men still act like a man and still gay.So the society need to know that men who act like female are not all gay.

What is a diet mean?

April 30, 2010

What does people differ diet. A diet mean all the food we eat.Diet is not just menus for a day or week, but your usual food choices over a time.Many people use  diet to describe a plan to loss weight.Whether you eat salad all day or survive on juice alone, that is your diet.People usually associate the term diet with starvation  and pain,but however, that is not correct of the definition of diet.  The word diet refers to the food choices that we make on a daily basic.Which means, starvation is not part of an ideal and healthy diet. I believe this is the reason why majority of diets out fail.Since obesity has become so widespread ans society’s views have changed, the meaning of  diet has grown to include the kind and amount of food.for a special reason to reduce one’s weight.

   Our body accept the diet w provide,whether it’s based on health habits, including the occasional splurge, or daily fat food.Our systems wer originally designed to crave nutrients that are easily digested absorbed,and used.When provided a died filled with foods using less than desirable nutrients, your body works harder to create something useful eventually it will try break down.The chemical breakdown, and reconstruction of these nutrients cause an additional strain on your body,a nd is the source behind most  obesity related heart disease, circulation problems insulin resistance, arthritic, muscle atrophy, and numerous other medical issues.

Racism Still Exists in America

April 22, 2010

America is in denial.America has been saying that racism is a thing of the past.Did American people think they fooling themselves or what.If you look at the congress all of the candidates are white men.That called racism.Civil rights activities like Jesse Jackson was beating  a dead horse.After terrorism rocked America out of its apathetic stupor. The media glossed over of racist attacks against Arab-Americans with rhetoric that sais America is “unified as never before”.We need to remember that, not so long ago, this country was split along racial lines and the politics of the day reflected such a split.The racist element in America was still strong as recently as the 1960s.These days, it is unpopular for a political to be openly racist, but it does not mean there aren’t racist politicians.

When the media came out with Obama birth certificate issue.How many USA white president have been ask to show their birth certificate after been elected as a president.Did American tthink they fooling people or they fooling themselves.Racism still existing in America.Looking at the Oscars Grammy award about 75% of the nominees and the winners are all white .Only three blacks won the grammy 2010.

 When you look at the media all the producers, news reporters are all white.Even in the government majorities of the cabinets are all white men.Racism still exists in American even we still denial it but we can see it everyday in our life.How can we solve this problem.

What a Man can do a Woman can do better

April 9, 2010

  I believe what a man can do a woman can do it too.In life men thought that they more powerful and make good decision than women.That is wrong a we all human.Remember a woman is the mother of  all men taught them how to become a good man in life.Today women are more in power and can make good ideas than men.Woman are head of household, head of state, managers etc.Woman go to war now so whats the different between us than.

   Some women are smarter if not smart as men.Women are equal to men, and should have the same opportunities as men.Woman follow rules and are fair too. Woman can make good choices, and effective speeches.All men are created equal, women do things that men can’t do.Women can do anything that they put their mind to do.Women are very hard workers.

 Women do manage their home ans work while men are mainly into professional.Maybe that could be a reason why men mainly reach top positions than women.Remember want a man can do in this world is taught my a mother, so we are equal in this world.

Breast cancer screening

April 2, 2010

Breast cancer screening means checking a woman’s breasts for cancer before there are signs or symptoms of the disease. Three main tests are used to screen the breasts for cancer. Talk to your doctor about which tests are right for you, and when you should have them.They are clinical breast exam, breast self exam and mammogram.

Mammograms can spot dangerous tumours, but might also detect lumps that are essentially harmless, exposing some women to undue anxiety and surgery.This has led to a debate among experts about the benefits of breast screening.But this study suggests screening saves the lives of two women for every one who may have unnecessary treatment.

Scientists are trying to better understand which people are more likely to get certain types of cancer. They also study the things we do and the things around us to see if they cause cancer. This information helps doctors recommend who should be screened for cancer, which screening tests should be used, and how often the tests should be done.

Prevention and management of Diabetes

March 26, 2010

Well you should not feel alone, because there are millions of other people around the world right now who are suffering from the very same condition and who are feeling lost and alone just like you. There are two major different types of diabetes that a person can develop but in either case you are going to need to make sure that you understand the severity of this condition and that you are going to be doing everything that you need to in order to make sure that you are in good health and that you are taking proper care of yourself.

 If you were just diagnosed with diabetes, your mind is probably spinning and your emotions wandering. But take heart! You’re going to be just fine. Diabetes is not a death sentence. It is the time to keep a cool head and put together a practical programme, to keep the disease in control. Understanding how diabetes affects you will give you an increased sense of confidence and comfort, and can help you achieve a full and balanced life.

Twenty-four million people have been diagnosed with diabetes, but it’s estimated that an additional 5.7 million people have the disease and don’t know it. How is that possible? Type 2 diabetes doesn’t always have clear symptoms, and often people aren’t even aware that they have it.

  
Type 1 diabetes occurs because the insulin-producing cells of the pancreas (called beta cells) are destroyed by the immune system. People with type 1 diabetes produce no insulin and must use insulin injections to control their blood glucose. Type 1 diabetes most commonly starts in people under the age of 20, but may occur at any age. Type 1 diabetes cannot be prevented.  
Type 2 diabetes Unlike people with type 1 diabetes, people with type 2 diabetes produce insulin.

However, the insulin their pancreas secretes is either not enough or the body is unable to recognize the insulin and use it properly. When there isn’t enough insulin or the insulin is not used as it should be, glucose can’t get into the body’s cells. Type 2 diabetes is the most common form of diabetes. It usually occurs in people over age 40 who are overweight, but can occur in people who are not overweight. Sometimes referred to as “adult-onset diabetes,” type 2 diabetes has started to appear more often in children because of the rise in obesity in young people.

Gestational diabetes: Gestational diabetes is triggered by pregnancy. Hormone changes during pregnancy can affect insulin’s ability to work properly. The condition occurs in approximately 4% of all pregnancies. Screening for gestational diabetes is performed during pregnancy. Left untreated, gestational diabetes increases the risk of complications to both the mother and her unborn child. Usually, blood glucose levels return to normal within six weeks of childbirth.

Warning signs: The symptoms of type 1 diabetes often occur suddenly and can be severe. They include increased thirst, increased hunger (especially after eating), a dry mouth, frequent urination, unexplained weight loss (even though you are eating and feel hungry), fatigue (weak, tired feeling), a blurred vision, lack of interest and concentration, labored heavy breathing.

The symptoms of type 2 diabetes may be the same as those listed above. Often, there are no symptoms or a very gradual development of the above symptoms. Other symptoms may include frequent infections and slow-healing of wounds, itching of the skin (usually in the vaginal or groin area), numbness or tingling of the hands and feet, impotence or erectile dysfunction.

Who is at risk of diabetes?
There are many risk factors for type 2 diabetes. They include obesity and overweight, lack of exercise, sedentary lifestyle, previously identified glucose intolerance, unhealthy diet, increased age, high blood pressure and high cholesterol, stress, certain drugs (clozapine, risperidone, etc), genes, a family history of diabetes, a history of gestational diabetes and ethnicity.

Managing Diabetes
There is substantial evidence that achieving a healthy body weight and moderate physical activity can help prevent the development of type 2 diabetes. Everyone with diabetes needs to be in the care of a capable doctor. But it doesn’t necessarily have to be the person who diagnosed your diabetes. You’re going to be seeing your health care team at least three to four times a year.
Conclusion
Diabetes management requires awareness. Know what makes your blood sugar level rise and fall. People with diabetes need to monitor their blood glucose, take medication, exercise regularly and adjust their eating habits. Whether you have just been diagnosed with diabetes or you have lived with the condition for many years, your concerns are probably much the same – to learn to live a full and healthy life with diabetes.

A substantial proportion of the predominant type of diabetes, type 2, can be prevented through physical activity and healthy eating. Your diabetes and your health are completely under your control. Take good care of yourself and you’ll live a long, happy, healthy life

Men Wrongfully Convicted in Prison for Crime they did not do

March 19, 2010

In 1985 a woman was raped in the parking lot of an apartment complex in Sandy Springs, a city north of  Atlanta.
Williams was convicted of the crime and sentenced to 45 years in prison, but that didn’t deter him from working to clear his name.In 2005 Williams wrote a letter to the Georgia Innocence Project, a non-profit organization that works to clear individuals who have been convicted of crimes they didn’t commit.Through the work of the GIP, DNA test were performed by the Georgia Bureau of Investigations. The DNA test ruled out Williams as the rapist.Williams isn’t the first person freed through the efforts of the Georgia Innocence Project. In 2005 DNA evidence exonerated Robert Clark. He was sentenced to life in prison in 1981 for rape, robbery, and kidnapping, and served 24 years before being released.According to the Georgia Innocence Project website, in 2005 Governor Sonny Perdue signed into law legislation to compensate Clarence Harris after he served 18 years of a life sentence in prison for rape, robbery, and kidnapping. Harris was released from prison in 2004 after DNA test cleared his name.
  What have happen to the law or the judges.I believe there is no law in US.What should the people of do about this kind of law.

Mark Ciavarella and Michael Conahan sent children to jail for offences so trivial that some of them weren’t even crimes. A 15 year-old called Hillary Transue got three months for creating a spoof web page ridiculing her school’s assistant principal. Mr Ciavarella sent Shane Bly, then 13, to boot camp for trespassing in a vacant building. He gave a 14 year-old, Jamie Quinn, 11 months in prison for slapping a friend during an argument, after the friend slapped her. The judges were paid $2.6 million by companies belonging to the Mid Atlantic Youth Services Corp for helping to fill its jails. This is what happens when public services are run for profit.In the US  they have a powerful incentive to ensure that the number of prisoners keeps rising.The United States is more corrupt , but it is also more transparent. There the lobbyists demanding and receiving changes to judicial policy might be exposed, and corrupt officials identified and prosecuted.

  Most of this victims are black accused of raping white ladies.Is the judges  racism or what.Should the judges be punish  for putting  someone in prison for life.The innocents prisoners should be pay to get their life back in track or the sue the judges for accusing them for crime they did not cause.There is no law in America and we the America should fight for our rights.
