Cellphones!

Cellphones are a great and handy tool. They are very useful when it comes to communicating with other people while on the move. Also a lot of people these days have a cellphone which makes communicating with them much easier than using home phones. On the other hand, cellphones can be used for non-ethical things. In the past few years cellphones have been used to detonate bombs. They also be used to cheat on tests by texting the answer to their buddy. Overall cellphones are handy and very useful, but only if they are used in a manner that they are meant to be used.



Cellphones can be used to take pictures of their school projects and show it to their parents, because parents don't usually see these projects. It can also be used to text message their classmate that miss the class, a buddy system can be put into place.A lot of cellphones are equipped with it's own calculators and can be used for solving mathematical problems that are assigned by the teacher. Pictures of the notes can also be taken and accessed later for students who take notes slowly. Students can also listen to music using their earphones, many students find it helpful and relaxing to do so.

Cellphones can also be used for unethical purposes. One thing that happens quite often is that students send text messages of the test answers top their buddies, which is cheating and is very wrong. One big problem is teachers being recorded doing unethical stuff and put on the Internet for all to see. There are also very serious offenses including, arranging a drug deal, Setting up others to fight and the worst thing is to detonate a bomb.

I believe that cellphones are a vey useful and helpful to everyday use, but this is only possible if people use it in an ethical way. To me, an ethical use of cellphones should in a classroom should be that cellphones should only be used outside of the classroom because most of the ti e when student use their cellphones they text other people and get distracted, and on the process don't do what is supposed to be done on the classroom.

Random Blog........

Since i can`t think of anything to interesting to blog, i`ll just talk about my friends coming over at my place at the start of winter break. At the last day of school before winter break, some of my friends slept over at my place. we played some black ops (ZOMBIES!) at first, but then we got bored so we played some Wii. Even though the Nintendo Wii is more of a family type console we had lots of fun playing it. We played Mario Party 8 for about 3 hours and it was hilarious, also it was pretty late and we were all very sleepy so it made everything funnier. Then we played some Just Dance 2 and that was just a laugh attack, we can barely dance cause we were just laughing at each other half the time. We went to sleep at around 5AM? I`m not really sure. We woke  up at around 12PM and they headed home, i had to clean up the mess we made after wards, but it was well worth it. Well that was that, i hope you guys enjoyed reading my blog and thank you for taking the time and having the interest in  reading my blog.

What I Think!

I think that the Bermuda Triangle mystery isn't true and all the stories of plane crashes and shipwrecks have Ben modified to feed people's curiosities. That is also the exact same reason that people are so into it, because it is very interesting and eye-catching. Even though quite a lot of people believe the Bermuda Triangle mystery, I am one of the few that don't.

Bermuda Triangle - Theories

Theory 1 - Some people claim that most of the disappearances are beyond the boundaries of human error and force of nature. People believe that they are are caused by some other supernatural force, suspension of the laws of physics, or an extraterrestrial activity. Though quite a few documentation exists showing numerous incidents to have been inaccurately reported, many have remained unexplained despite considerable investigation.


Theory 2 - In 1975 Larry Kusche, a librarian at Arizona State University, reached a totally different conclusion. Kusche decided to investigate the claims made by these articles and books. What he found he published in his own book entitled The Bermuda Triangle Mystery-Solved. Kusche had carefully dug into records other writers had neglected. He found that many of the strange accidents were not so strange after all. Often a Triangle writer had noted a ship or plane had disappeared in "calms seas" when the record showed a raging storm had been in progress. Others said ships had "mysteriously vanished" when their remains had actually been found and the cause of their sinking explained. In one case a ship listed missing in the Triangle actually had disappeared in the Pacific Ocean some 3,000 miles away! The author had confused the name of the Pacific port the ship had left with a city of the same name on the Atlantic coast.

Bermuda Triangle - Intro

The Bermuda Triangle has been a source of interest to a lot of people who stumble upon it on the internet,books or anywhere else. The Bermuda Triangle is a region in the Atlantic ocean between Bermuda, Miami, Florida and San Juan, Puerto Rico. A lot of people are interested of this area because there has been a lot of accidents in the Bermuda Triangle's proximity. An unusually big number of ships and planes have crashed in the area, and most of the wrecks have not been found.
