Is internet addiction really a problem?

2012-01-31T00:44:00.000-08:00

MARKY OO2

A problem? No way! From what I’ve seen it’s something which people do when they’re bored. It isn’t an “addiction”. The problem is that real life isn’t as interesting as the Internet! It’s more fun online!

MYGIRL_RUBY

I agree with Marky. It isn’t a problem if it’s entertaining. The internet is less addictive than TV. Anyway, in my experience people can be obsessive about everything.

HEYGAZZA!

Marky’s got a point, but I think the Internet can be an addiction and some people need help. I’ve got a friend who’s completely disconnected from real life. In most of his free time, he plays games online and when he isn’t playing he’s in the chat rooms. He’s failed a lot of exams and he’s less interested in everything. It’s like an illness. He needs to talk to someone.

CARLA_TORTÓS

Well, I think internet is addictive but it isn’t a problem, because the TV is the same.All people love spend a few time in front of the screen and watch the a news, cartoons, soap operas... but other people love spending their time in front of the other screen and talk with friends, play games...

I think this is what's really addictive: talking to friends online, chats rooms are a problem because you need to be connected and talk with other people for along time.

But in Internet there are more problems for example, there are a lot of people who uses Internet and some of them are “hackers”.

AMANDA WOODS.

Hi, my name is Amanda Woods, I'm an American woman with problems with men.

One day I decided to go on holidays to forget I had split up with my boy friend.

I found this holidays in one web site to change the houses. I found one little house in England.
When I saw this offer I chat with the owner, Iris. And in less than a week we changed the houses for two weeks for Christmas to leave the city and try new enviroments.

When I arrived in a house I found a dog (iris dog)
The first day it was very boring, because I didn't know what to do in this house. After a while the bell rang, in the door there was a man, this man was Iris brother, the owner of the house. We talked a long time an we kissed.

Some days later we went to visit the city. One day I went to Graham's house, I knocked the door and one little girl opened, I asked for Graham and I saw another little girl. I got angry and I asked to Graham: Are you married?
He said yes, but he was a widower, and I understood him. That night I stayed for dinner in his house.

Another day Graham stayed in Iris house and we went to the bed, in the bed we talked. Graham said he was in love with me but I remained silent.

The days were forward and came the day I had to go. Before I leaving I kissed Graham. When I stayed on the way I cried!!
And I thought: Graham Iris' brother, is my real boyfriend. I'm in love!!

I came back and we spent new year eve together with Iris, Myles and the two little girls (Olivia and Sophie) in my real house in Los Angleles (L.A)

Mark Zuckerberg

2011-11-30T00:10:00.000-08:00

The geek who changed the world. Mark Zuckerberg creted Facebook in 2004, aged 19.
Today he is the second youngest billionaire in the world.

Thanks to the success of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg has a personal fortune of around 14 billion dolars. But the 27-year-old businessman has a very modest lifestyle. He wears jeans, T-shirts and trainers, works constantly and is studing Chinese.

Zuckerberg was a computer prodigy from a young age: his friends did ilustrations wich he transformed into computer games. He also showed a special talent for Latin, Ancient Greek and fencing.

He left New Yourk in 2002 to go to Harvard, an elite American university, to study psychology and computer science. He was shy and people thought he was a geek. He started to develop social network sites for fun.

Zuckerberg hacked into Harvard's computer system on 20 October 2003. He copied private photos of university students to create a site called Facemash. On the site, students could see photos and vote for the people they found most attractive. The site had 450 visitors in four hours, but Harvard shut it down.. and Mark Zuckerberg was almost exelled!!

He was not discouraged. Zuckerberg understood the demand for a website to share personal information with friends. So in 2004, he launched Facebook from his university bedroom. Within 24 hours, 1,200 Harvard students had signed up. After one month, more than half of the students population at Harvard had a Facebook profile.

Facebook soon arrived at other universties. Zuckerberg left Harvard without graduating- he wanted to spend time developing his site. In just seven, years facebook changed the world.

Whit 800 million users, Facebook is now the biggest website on the planet. Zuckerberg wants to keep Facebook users on the site for longer by sharing music, films and personal infomation in the Timeline.

Zukerberg has had problems with his site. Tree Harvard students accused him of copying their ideas to create Facebook, and won a lawsuit against him in 2008. Zukerberg, a private person, has also been criticized for Facebook's principales: making private information public...

The young billionaire doesn't care about this, though. He also says that he didn't just want to make money. "The thing I really care about is the mission making the world open", he says.

Facebook for your phone has helped Zuckerberg complete his mission... and made even more money for his company. But like Microsoft's Bill Gates, Zuckerberg promises to give half of his money to charity. With everything he does, Mark zuckerberg continues to change the world...

TdS. Global Warming, panic or reality?

2011-06-09T03:42:00.000-07:00

Global warming is already under way. The evidence is vast and the urgency of taking action becomes clearer with every new scientific study. Some of the most obvious signs are visible in the Arctic, where rising temperatures and melting ice are dramatically changing the region’s unique landscapes and wildlife—as well as people’s lives and livelihoods. Across the globe, other early warning signs include melting glaciers, shifting ranges of plants and animals, and the earlier onset of spring.

VISIT THE LINKS TO ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS:

1. What is global warming? Global warming is the current rise in the average temperature of Earth's oceans and atmosphere. The scientific consensus is that global warming is occurring and was initiated by human activities, especially those that increase concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, such as deforestation and burning of fossil fuels.

2. What is the process involved in the greenhouse effect? Scientist are sure about the greenhouse effect. They know greenhouse gases make the Earth warmer by trapping energy in the atmosphere.

3. What signs warn us about global warming? The weather is changing. The oceans level are increase because the ice of Arctic are waring up.

4. Can you quote another term for global warming? Greenhouse effect.

5. Watch the video and explain this idea: Global warming: panic or reality? Global warming is reality and we must help for save the planet.

THE BIG QUESTION:
What can we do to stop global warming? Suggest five ideas.

- You must recycle.
- You must go school by bicycle.
- You must switch off the lights.
- Not thruway papers on the floor.
- Not waste the water.
- We must use the renewable energy.
___________

When we do this activity we learn different things.
The global warming is very important for the life of the people, because it destroys the planet.
Another is the greenhouse effect.
Most people don't know about the greenhouse effect. Now we explain.
The greenhouse gases are in the Earth by trapping energy in the atmosphere.
Now we, all the people need to help the planet.
The global warming is reality and we must help to save the planet.

My name is Carla Tortós-Sala and I live in Banyoles in Catalonia. I like the youth café where I live, so I want to improve it.

A letter from a desert island

2010-02-24T07:23:00.000-08:00

My name is Carla Tortós-sala and I'm writing this from and island near Madagascar. My family is here too. We are lost and we can't escape.

Life isn't very funny after two days on this island. We haven't got any games and we can't see our friends either. Every day I make a fire on the beach and look for boats.

We can't survive here. It's very hot and sunny. There isn't much food. We sometimes eat snakes. We eat insects too, but they're horrible.

Please look for us!!

Sled dogs race all day and night in extreme conditions: temperatures can fall to minutes 40ºC! They race for a few hours, then they have a rest. Then they have a rest. Then they go again! When they stop, the musher takes care of the dogs first. The dogs eat, then they sleep for two hours. There is one long stop for 36 hours, halfway through the race.

My favourite day at school

Today we've got Art and Music in the morning; football and basketball in the afternoon. P.E is my favourite subject because Xavi Hernandez and Rudi Fernandez are teachers.

WELCOME TO BANYOLES Banyoles is a city in the north of Catalonia. It's small city, but it's interesting. It has got some nice places. My favourite place is the lake.

Banyoles has got lots of cafés and restaurants. The food is good; and there are expensive restaurants. There are good cafés in the Plaça Major.

There are eight kilometers around the lake. There are some interesting places next to the lake, for exemple Parc de la Draga. Banyoles is nice to visit for tourists, and there are bus stations and taxi stations.
