1. At home, how often are you online? At school how often are you online? What percentage of the time do you think you spend:

1. 80% doing homework 2. 3% chatting with friends 3. 5% updating my profile 4. 10% playing games 5. 2% surfing for interests 6. 0% downloading music 7. 0 % down loading videos

2. A survey by the Pew Internet & American Life Project found that in 2004, 67% of parents said the Internet has been a good thing for their children. However, this number decreased to 59% in 2006. Why do you think the number of parents who reported the Internet being a good thing for their children has decreased?

I think that people now look at internet differently because of why a computer is used. Parents now see children spend a lot of there time on the internet playing games and chatting with there friends. Computers may take the special time children have at home with there parents. They are more prone to get into trouble with friends or enemies. The internet is an open source to meet strangers and it may scare parents.

3. In the introduction to the program, the narrator says: "This is Morris County, N.J., but it could be anywhere in America. Here, like in the rest of the country, some 90% of teenagers are online, a number that's still growing." From what you saw in the film, is Morris Country indicative of a typical American community? Why or why not? Is it like our community?

Metallica filed a lawsuit against Napster in the US District Court, Central District of California, alleging that the company encourages piracy by enabling and allowing its users to trade copyrighted songs "I Disappear". The lawsuit states that Napster has violated three different areas of the law: copyright infringements, unlawful use of digital audio interface device, and the Racketeering Influenced & Corrupt Organizations Act. A list of 335,435 Napster users were believed to be sharing Metallica's music. The lawsuit named three universities for copyright infringement, the university of southern california, yale and indiana university.This causeing napster to be blocked in areas. The result in the case with Napster shutting down in July 2001 and declaring bankruptcy the following year. Napster had to pay acts and companies more than 26 million to compensate for past infringements. The company tried to stay alive as a subscription service but did not survive. Them then selling the company for 181 million dollars to best buy. I agree with the result becuase they did end up losing everything, i understand that Napster was just made for a easier use of music but i also understand that bands would get mad. They made the music thats there job and they want money for it. They stated to everyone that copyrighting it a rip off and other bands stepped up and suied them to. [] [] []

 * --If you troll through Youtube, there is no shortage of videos of children ... children crying, throwing tantrums, being silly or adorable. Each one of them now has a digital footprint that could end up following them for the rest of their lives.**
 * According to a study released last month, 84 per cent of Canadian children under the age of two have a digital footprint. And critics say we're not giving nearly enough thought to the potential consequences specifically the possibility that we might be traumatizing some of these children.**

When children are young parents like to keep moments of them being silly, cute or even annoying. Maybe its there way of holding on to things. When they find something that is price less they don’t really think it its harm full to put it on you tube or even pictures on the net. Putting thinks on the internet may have greater information then we think. Digital footprints comprise the trail of personal data and information, images, activities, interests, thoughts and relationships published on websites, and in texts, emails, and any electronic format. This might not be happening yet with the young child, but it is going on with the family. The child is still open to the internet in many ways. If your parents and you are putting your childs picture on youtube etc use short form names so it not so reviling. Yes you think your child is cute and you want to show him or her to the world, but do it safely. If your child is being a brat in a video why would you want to put that on internet. Later on in life people may look at it and judge them they might even jugde them selfs. They are just young children and they don’t really know the difference right now but in the future this may come effect to them. People see lots of videos on youtube you never now who is watching or keeping track of videos a parent is updated about there child. If there is information about the parent then the child is very venerable to anything you are. People are out there that really pay close attention to children and how they act. Some might even like it. There are sick people out there that want these children and might do anything to find them. People like this may live in your community and with your information on the internet it might not be very hard to find where the child may be. Making sure that you have full safty on you and your childs information.

__//**Assignment 2**//__ //**100 word essay on why tech. makes the world better.**// Technologies are tools students use to create knowledge and to create personal and social change.Technology is slowly making the world a better place by giving us the privlage in communicating with the world using computers, cell phones, ipods etc. As our parents being younger and not really knowing whats going on in the world like we do. It gives us a higher eduation and a better understanding of the world its self. Not only communicating with the world but our local communities too. Back in the day having to travel or even walk down the road just to send a brief message took a long time, now being able to send a message, sitting in your exact spot. Its a big change but the world around us is changing fast. Students can learn things quicker with the internet giving them access to information fast. Thats what the world wants information and communication quick. This is increasing every second of the day becoming more complexed and making minds more complexed. `Critical Thinking and Problem Solving `Collaboration across Networks and Leading by Influence `Agility and Adaptability `Initiative and Entrepreneurialism `Effective Oral and Written Communication `Accessing and Analyzing Information `Curiosity and Imagination If people are contantly using techology they are usually learning knewer techneques to get places on the net or how to use a new software. Even learning how to use a new item like a cell phone. Cell phones are a huge thing in our geration. we as people rely on them with with our everyday life, School, work, and homes. The good things about cell phones is that you can always get a hold of someone if it's for an emergency or even just to say hi. Texting is another way of getting a hold of someone quick. the good thing with texting is that your constantly spelling and now that cells have spell check it helps with your spelling. Helps with my spelling anyways. Students even go to school to learn about technology and its new ways. Being a person who wants to go into a graphic designer for example need to keep up with the date of technology to do his or her job.

__TAPPED VIDEO__ The bottled water industry is not required to submit reports to the FDA and is not required to report internal testing but we all think they do. Tap water, on the other hand, is highly regulated and is tested many times a day which is safer and more sufficient. Bottled water has been described as "one of the greatest cons of the 20th century" so why not drink tap water. In the United States, plastic used to create bottles uses an estimated 15 million barrels of oil annually, that’s bad, you think its just water bottles right. People say recyling is good for the enviroment but people have proved this wrong with this video ands other information. I was amazed when I heard how much doesn’t acually get reycled, how much cant be reycled and what happeneds to some of the water bottles when they get reycled.It really isnt that safe and I had no idea. Extreme health problems occur within people living near manufacturing plants. There is know to be chemicals such as antimony this can cause headache, dizziness, and depression. Americans consume 80 million single-serving bottles of water daily, but only 30 million end up in landfills. The rest of the bottles around 50 million of them daily are massively polluting the environment, especially the oceans.Water bottles can contain trace amount of Bisphenol A (BPA), a synthetic chemical that interferes with the body’s natural hormonal messaging system.BPA has been linked to breast and uterine cancer, an increased risk of miscarriage, and decreased testosterone levels.BPA can also wreaken the children s developing systems. (Parents beware: Most baby bottles and sippy cups are made with plastics containing BPA.) Health studies also recommend not reusing bottles made from plastic (polyethylene terephthalate, also known as PET or PETE), including most disposable water, soda and juice bottles. According to the green guild such bottles may be safe for one-time use, but re-use should be avoided because studies indicate they may leach DEHP which is another probable human carcinogen. This happeneds when they are in less-than-perfect condition.Up to 600 different chemicals may form as byproducts of disinfection
 * Bottled water** is drinking, corbonated water,mineral water, distilled water, spring water, well water, or de-ionized water packaged in plastic bottles or glass bottles. Sizes range from small single serving [|PET] bottles to large carboys for water coolers
 * Toluene** was found in four different types of water when researched. This chemical is used as an industrial chemical, a solvent for paints, paint thinners, silicone sealants, rubber, printing ink, glues, leather tanners, and disinfectants.
 * Hexane** has been associated with potential health impacts including developmental toxicity,, reproductive toxicity, respiratory toxicity, and skinsensitivity.
