Antarctica is a very beautiful place where human beings can’t live. It is so cold that there that we as human doubt ourselves about its principles. Today, this place is in a great danger because of human being activity and their pressure on earth and the environment. As a cold place, antarctica is among the second coldest place on earth. We should not let the ice collapse because it can cause catastrophic storm, Increased deaths from heat waves and high sea level. In a web article “History” (n.d, paras 1-145) “Wherever humans go they have an impact on the environment, and Antarctica is no exception. Until recently, our record of stewardship has not been good. Within the last few years, though, government agencies involved in Antarctic research have become increasingly aware of the need to protect that continent's uniquely pristine status. Consequently, formerly polluted bases have been cleaned up, and new protocols have been approved by the Antarctic Treaty nations to limit pollution and other forms of environmental damage. It will never be possible to completely eliminate human impact, though, as long as people continue to travel and work in Antarctica. The impact of human activity on the Antarctic environment can be roughly divided into three broad categories: exploitation, pollution, and disturbance. To date, all human exploitation of Antarctica has been for biological resources. This may be due in no small part to the difficulty, even impossibility, of mineral and oil extraction in that environment. That situation may change as new technologies develop, though the Madrid Protocol to the Antarctic Treaty prohibits mining activity until at least the year 2041.Most of Antarctica's biological resources are now protected to some degree. That was not the case in the early years of human activity. Captain Cook's 1775 report of plentiful seals and whales in Antarctic waters brought hunters in great numbers to the southern ocean. The fur trade with China was beginning to open up and there were large amounts of money to be made. British sealers began harvesting at South Georgia as early as 1778. In 1792, American sealers began operations at South Georgia and Kergulen Island. Harvesting methods were brutal and efficient, and there was no regard to sustaining the breeding stock. Between 1790 and 1822 over 1,200,000 skins were taken from South Georgia alone, virtually exterminating the seals there. James Weddell noted that more than 100,000 South Shetland fur seal pups died of starvation during 1821-1822, after their mothers were killed and skinned. With a little prudent regulation, those islands might have provided a yearly harvest almost indefinitely. Instead, the population was rendered economically extinct.By 1825, six species of fur seal (Arctocephalus gazella, A. forsteri, A. tropicalis, A. australis, A. phillipii, and A. pusillus) had been hunted to near extinction around the coasts of Chile and Argentina, and on most of the sub-Antarctic and Antarctic islands.By the 1870s, after fifty years of being left alone, seal populations had begun to recover slightly. However, a brief resumption of "scorched earth" policies decimated them again. By the late nineteenth century, commercial fur seal hunting had effectively ended, and it has not been resumed. The hunting of southern elephant seals (Mirounga leonina) for their oil continued at varying levels up until the early 1960s. At times when elephant seals were scarce, the sealers would turn to penguins. Throughout the nineteenth and into the twentieth century, thousands of these birds were killed and rendered for their meager amount of oil. Penguin populations, however, were never decimated to the same degree as seals. In addition to the organized slaughter of seals and penguins for profit, both were occasionally killed for scientific reasons. Also, most early Antarctic expeditions augmented their food supplies with penguin eggs and penguin and seal meat. (The Astrolabe sailors, hungry for fresh meat, compared penguin favorably to chicken. Bellingshausen's men found it to be more palatable after it had been soaked in vinegar for a few days. Adrien de Gerlache considered it inedible.) Fresh meat was considered an effective means of preventing or curing scurvy, a disease which haunted nearly all early explorers. On occasions when an expedition's ship was unexpectedly beset or crushed by pack ice, the crew depended on seal and penguin meat for survival. The men in Nordenskjld's Antarctic expedition killed as many as 2000 penguins for food in 1903. Scott's northern party subsisted almost entirely on penguin and seal meat in 1912. They also depended on seal blubber to keep them warm, as did the men of Shackleton's marooned Ross Sea party in 1916. Because the species exploited for sustenance were usually different than those slaughtered for commercial purposes, the long term effect of these depredations was probably slight.By the late nineteenth to early twentieth centuries, whales had become the target for exploitation. Whaling technology had advanced enough such that whalers were finally able to hunt the fast-swimming rorquals that populated Antarctic waters in such abundance. Several whaling stations were set up, including ones on South Georgia and Deception Island, and hunting began in earnest. The ocean-going factory ship made its appearance in 1923, accompanied by fast, steam powered catcher boats, and the industry grew rapidly. Species after species was hunted until it became difficult to find, then the hunt was transferred to another animal. After the prized southern right whale, blue and humpback whales were hunted preferentially. Then the hunt shifted to fin whales, then sei whales. Sperm whales were also taken. During the 1937-1938 season, 33 whaling expeditions killed 46,000 whales. Between 1956 and 1965, 631,518 whales were killed. Up until 1935, England and Norway was responsible for about 90% of the catch. After 1937, Japan began to dominate the southern whaling industry, with the Soviet Union entering the scene in 1951. By the early-1960s, it became clear that whales had been overhunted. Catches per unit effort were declining dramatically (even though 41,000 whales were killed in Antarctic waters during the 1960-61 season). England ceased Antarctic whaling in 1963, and Norway followed suit in 1968. By then, though, many whale stocks had been reduced to small fractions of their estimated original populations; blue whales to 5%, fin and sei whales to 20%, right and humpback whales to 3%. Currently there is a moratorium on Antarctic factory ship whaling, though a certain level of "scientific" whaling is permitted. Japan takes advantage of that loophole to kill about 300 minke whales per year. Nonetheless, the level of exploitation has been reduced to near zero. The effect of the whale slaughter on the Antarctic ecosystem is still under study. Penguins that consume krill are abundant. Fur seals that use the same food source have not only recovered from the brink of extinction, but may in fact be more numerous than before they were hunted. In some areas they are overrunning breeding beaches and degrading the surrounding foliage, which in turn is destroying the breeding habitat of some sea birds. Whales take much longer to reproduce than seals and penguins, and it may be that the absence of these large predators from the ecosystem has provided extra food for their pinniped and avian competitors. This may be slowing the whales' recovery, since they are faced with increased competition for food. The equation is further complicated by human harvesting of krill. It is unknown how long it may take for the Antarctic ecosystem to return to its pre- exploitation equilibrium, if indeed it ever will. First negative effect visited on Antarctica by human presence was pollution; early expeditions simply tossed all of their garbage and sewage overboard. However, the small quantities of these pollutants generated by the expeditions of Kergulen and James Cook had a negligible impact. Later sailing expeditions also discarded their refuse into the environment, but the number of people involved and amount garbage generated was still relatively small.In addition, the garbage discarded or lost to storm damage was natural in origin (foodstuffs, feces, wood, fabric, metal) and so could be expected to degrade at some level (albeit slowly). Natural items in relatively small amounts are also unlikely to adversely affect indigenous biology. Even the photochemicals discarded by early photographers like Herbert Ponting and Frank Hurley were biodegradable.At times the level of refuse was higher than others. When a vessel was beset and crushed by the pack ice, such as the Antarctic in 1903 and the Endurance in 1915, a comparatively large amount of anthropogenic debris was deposited into the environment. In the early nineteenth century, sealers left large amounts of debris and garbage on numerous Antarctic and sub- Antarctic islands, including building materials, personal goods, food containers, and rusting, metal try pots. Whalers were even more prodigious in the amount of garbage they left behind. Whole whaling stations, like those at Grytviken and Leith Harbor on South Georgia, lie abandoned and crumbling. On the shore, huge oil storage tanks disintegrate into rust and numerous buildings fall into disrepair, while catcher boats wallow in the harbor. On some islands huge piles of bleached whale bones attest to the former slaughter.Despite the prodigious mess in some places, the level of historical pollution is still quite low when measured against the vastness of Antarctica.The twentieth century brought three notable changes in Antarctic pollution. First, technology began to produce materials which had never existed in nature. The advent of airplanes, diesel powered vessels, and motorized vehicles meant the introduction of gasoline and other refined fossil fuels to Antarctica. These and other manufactured chemicals have a notably deleterious effect on the environment when they are spilled, as they often were. (The aviation fuel requirement for America's IGY effort alone was over a million gallons, of which 140,000 was spilled into McMurdo Sound in 1956 when a fuel barge was crushed between ice floes.) The wreck of the Bahia Paraiso in 1989 provided a recent and dramatic example of the kinds of damage possible from fuel spills; several breeding bird populations were severely impacted. Also, until recently hazardous chemical wastes (solvents, laboratory chemicals, and the like) were poured directly into the environment, with unknown consequences.The modern era also brought with it other manufactured and synthetic products, like plastics, for which no biological breakdown system exists. In the cold and dry Antarctic environment, where unpainted wood can last for centuries, these synthetic products can be expected to persist essentially forever. Before they were banned as packing material, styrofoam peanuts were frequently shipped to McMurdo Station, where the persistent winds would blow them across the landscape. If one were to look hard enough, one could probably find bits of styrofoam along the entire length and breadth of the Ross Sea. Second, the level of human activity increased dramatically. The 1946-1947 U.S. Navy Antarctic Developments Project was the largest expedition ever launched. While no records exist, it is reasonable to presume that the quantity of garbage discarded into the environment that summer season was commensurate with the large number of people involved. (Until very recently, all shipboard garbage was tossed into the sea, worldwide.) As human activity in the Antarctic continued to increase, through the IGY and beyond, so too did the amount of trash, sewage, and hazardous chemicals introduced to the environment.In recent years, however, there have been some positive changes. The U.S. Antarctic Program, for instance, no longer dumps or burns garbage but removes all waste (except sewage) from the continent. Even better, most of this material is recycled. Third, a dramatic change in the pattern of garbage dumping and accumulation came with the establishment of permanent stations. Until that time, waste was spread out as ships and ground-based expeditions dumped their refuse wherever they happened to be. Minor accumulations, two to four years worth perhaps, built up around the campsites of the heroic era expeditions of Robert Scott, Ernest Shackleton, and others. (Many of these areas are now considered historical monuments, garbage and all.) Once stations became permanently inhabited, waste began to accumulate in one spot over a period of many years. Storms and high winds would spread some of the trash across a wider area, but most of it remained (or remains) localized. Before long many stations began to look like garbage dumps--and many of them still do. The impact of this waste concentration on the immediate environment has not been extensively studied. In some cases, the waste was dumped into the sea, from where it is extremely difficult to remove. For many years the U.S. program piled unwanted metal waste on the sea ice and waited for it to melt through or be carried away. Piles of debris are now scattered widely on the sea floor of McMurdo Sound and it is unlikely the area will ever be completely cleaned up. Trash was also bulldozed into the sea near McMurdo Station and Scott Base. The sea floor in Winter Quarters Bay, around Hut Point, and at Pram Point on Ross Island is littered with large amounts of debris. It is likely that this pattern has been repeated at other stations around the continent and on the Antarctic and sub- Antarctic islands. While it is obvious that the slaughter of animals and pollution of the environment clearly constitute a disturbance, the term is used here to refer to activities that do not fall specifically into either of those categories. For instance, the movement of ships through the pack and fast ice will displace (and may sometimes kill) seals and penguins. Helicopters and airplanes flying overhead will also disturb animals on the ice, causing them at times to scramble toward the water. As more and more vessels and aircraft operate in the Antarctic, this level of disturbance will increase. Construction activities have been known to disturb indigenous animal populations. The most egregious example of this was the French Antarctic Program's construction of a gravel runway at Dumont d'Urville Station, which involved dynamiting parts of a penguin rookery. The runway was subsequently destroyed by a storm and is not operational.In the course of their studies, scientists must often disturb animals and their environment. Researchers often capture and restrain seals and penguins to draw blood samples or attach depth recorders and satellite tracking devices. Long term population studies necessarily disturb the same animal groups for many years, and this may ultimately alter the animals' behavior toward humans. Recent penguin studies that used stomach lavage to study food preferences resulted in breeding failure and chick mortality. Other scientists have collected fish and invertebrate samples from the water column and sea floor, and these collections constitute a disturbance of the local ecology. How great is the disturbance caused by these activities is not known, but where collections have occurred for many years in the same place, it is conceivable that the local ecology has been altered.Finally, the mere presence of human establishments and the constant levels of human activity in a previously unoccupied environment constitutes a disturbance of that environment. Currently, this type of disturbance is highly localized, occurring primarily at the permanent stations and the frequently visited tourist destinations. Animal behavior, and the growth and distribution patterns of both vertebrates and invertebrates, may be altered. Once again, the level of alteration and its ultimate effects have not been extensively studied and are not well known”. The Antarctica situation is so critical that we, as human being are afraid about it. Things start to break over there, and it is only because of global warming. We need to make things change and focus on the most important things. We should not let the ice collapse because it can cause catastrophic storm, Increased deaths from heat waves and high sea level First, Catastrophic storm will be a result if the Antarctica ice collapse. Weather condition will be at an extreme condition and more death and instability will gain the world. Those storms named hurricane need heat to be born and actually, it is so destructive that it has many consequences. How does it affect the falling of the Antarctica ice?
First, we know that global warming is the major problem of all this. Second, the heat condensed because of the global warming creates those terrible hurricanes and actually can affect many areas as buildings, increase water flooding and death. According to Rosenberg (2008, paras. 8, 9) “Storm Surge. Approximately 90% of all hurricane deaths can be attributed to the storm surge, the dome of water created by the low pressure center of a hurricane. This storm surge quickly floods low-lying coastal areas with anywhere from 3 feet (one meter) for a category one storm to over 19 feet (6 meters) of storm surge for a category five storm. Hundreds of thousands of deaths in countries such as Bangladesh have been caused by the storm surge of cyclones. Wind Damage. The strong, at least 74 mph or 119 km/hr, winds of a hurricane can cause widespread destruction far inland of coastal areas, destroying homes, buildings, and infrastructure). This quotation gives a real disadvantage of what hurricanes can do when it happens and what it will cause. None of these disadvantages are good for us as human. We don’t need death those problems. We have the consequences of what we created and now there is still a chance that we can be eco friendly with the environment.
Second, we can have more death increased. More death will increase because of how the heat hit us. The planet will be at a higher degree of heating because of global warming and if it gets too higher, we can have more death. What happen is that, the sun will hit the earth third times than it does and people will be vulnerable. More heat and deshydratation will occur. People will be face with many injuries of it and die. It can also bring other disastrous elements that can really damage our skin. Ices that are collapsing in the Antarctica is a big problem because it is the only one that we have actually and those ice are unique for us to have an eye on them.
Third, greenhouses effects in the Antarctica will cause a rise on the sea level. Global warming is a serious problem that most of the countries in the world are fighting against. Sea levels may be affected by green houses effects because of the melting of the ices. If there are too many ices that melt in the Antarctica, then it means that we have a lot of water that will be added to our current sea and the level will be higher. Higher sea level will cause a serious injury to our planet because it may lead to flooding problems. Flooding problems is a consequence of higher sea levels. They will be water everywhere and we as humans will be more vulnerable to diseases and death. According to Grabiamowski & Strickland (n. d, paras.1, 2) “Glaciers and ice shelves around the world are melting [Source: Guardian Unlimited]. The loss of large areas of ice on the surface could accelerate global warming because less of the sun's energy would be reflected away from Earth to begin with (refer back to our discussion of the greenhouse effect). An immediate result of melting glaciers would be a rise in sea levels. Initially, the rise in sea level would only be an inch or two. Even a modest rise in sea levels could cause flooding problems for low-lying coastal areas. However, if the West Antarctic Ice Sheet were to melt and collapse into the sea, it would push sea levels up 10 meters (more than 32 feet), and many coastal areas would completely disappear beneath the ocean [Source: NASA]. The IPCC estimates that sea levels rose 17 centimeters (or about 6.7 inches) in the 20th century. Scientists project rising sea levels to continue through the 21st century, with levels increasing between 7 and 22 inches by 2100. The IPCC did not consider changes in ice flow in these projections due to a lack of scientific data. Sea levels will likely be greater than the range of projections, but we can't be sure by how much until more data can be gathered about the effect of global warming on ice flows”. According to this research by scientists, they estimate in the future that they will be a rising on sea levels because of the effects of global warming. Many bacteria will develop themselves and they are going to be more death and a world flooding problems. However, many scientists are fighting and trying to find a solution to this future problem. We have to look forward to find a solution and reduce the risk and to be able to have a safer environment. In conclusion, we have different options to help prevent the Antarctica from getting totally melted by the impact of global warming. Scientists should look on how they can come up with a radical solution and prevent this place that we can call historic to disappear.

New languages made by children
Do you know how many languages there are in the world? “ILU” do you know what this means? It means I LOVE YOU-can ”U“ believe that? Have you ever tried to create a new language? Believe it or not many young people have created a new language, and they use it in the text messages and in chatting online. These new languages are becoming more popular in these days. Many young people think this is the easiest and fastest way to connect with other people. The problems is that nobody can understand this kind of language because it does not have rules, and the grammar is not right. These languages include numbers, letters, commas and parentheses. These problems happen in many languages in the world not just in the English language. For example, in Saudi Arabia young children are using English letters when they chatting; its seem it is English words but unfortunately it is not. It’s English letters but Arabic meaning. Moreover, If we look at the background we will never see faster than this language. On the other hand, this language is not helpful for the young people because it will affect their grammatical skills, and it makes our native languages change.
First, most young people have problems with the spelling when they write, and that's because they mix their languages with the new key word or letters that nobody can understand; moreover, they make a big gap between the young people and old people because old people do not know what these new languages are, even though they are between student and the teacher, and they can affect these students in their work life. According to J, Lee (2002, paras. 37-38), “some teachers find the new writing style alarming. ‘First of all, it’s very careless, said Lois Moran, a middle school English teacher at St. Nicholas School in Jersey City. 'They should be careful to write properly and not to put these little codes in that they are in such a habit of writing to each other' said Ms. Moran, who has lectured her eighth-grade class on such mistakes.” That means students get an effect by these languages and that affects their skills and their education.
Second, the languages are changed. As we know these new languages have become trendy in recent years, and the only ones who use these languages are young people. On the other hand, if all of the citizens who are young people use these languages, what will old people be able to do? Should they have to learn it? So the problem is these languages are change from a languages to letters to numbers, and to slang, day by day our language is becoming unclear, and we do not know what will happen in the future. According to Weeks (2008, para.35), “Professor Ben Yagoda has been teaching English for 16 years. Students, he says, are getting brighter. But their abilities to write clearly have deteriorated appreciably in the past four of five years”. That means this new language was not here before, and people are carating new language by themselves that has no rules or law.
In conclusion, people should care about these new languages, because they will affect our life in the future, because we do not know if should use it or not. Is will it be a new language for today’s generation? We should teach our children a good language because this affects their grammar or their skills; we are losing the language, we are making the change, so we should be careful because we want to make sure that our children learning a good languages with good skills in the perfect way. We should avoid this problem that we may fall into.

Is the greenhouse effect a serous problem?
In “Antarctic Ice Collapse Linked to Greenhouse Gases” a web article about the collapsing of iceberg in the Antarctica by A. Doyle (2008), the author talks about how the greenhouse effects affects Antarctica. She also talked about a survey made for an estimation of how theses ice shelve will be affected in the future. The author gives us specific information about some information on previous icebergs that collapse some years ago. The main reason mentioned here was why there was the critical situation of Antarctica and its icebergs. The text gives us straight answers about the question and how it happened. We should not let Antarctica’s ice collapse because allowing greenhouse effect to continue will affect sea levels, it will cause desertification and it will affect agriculture.
First, greenhouse effects in Antarctica will cause a rise of the sea level. Global warming is a serious problem that most of the countries in the world are fighting against. Sea levels may be affected by greenhouse effects because of the melting of the ice. If there is too much ice that melts in Antarctica, then it means that we have a lot of water that will be added to our current sea and the level will be higher. Higher sea level will cause serious injury to our planet because it may lead to flooding problems. Flooding problems are a consequence of higher sea levels. There will be water everywhere and we as humans will be more vulnerable to diseases and death. According to Grabiamowski & Strickland (n. d, paras.1, 2) “Glaciers and ice shelves around the world are melting.The loss of large areas of ice on the surface could accelerate global warming because less of the sun's energy would be reflected away from Earth to begin with An immediate result of melting glaciers would be a rise in sea levels. Initially, the rise in sea level would only be an inch or two. Even a modest rise in sea levels could cause flooding problems for low-lying coastal areas. However, if the West Antarctic Ice Sheet were to melt and collapse into the sea, it would push sea levels up 10 meters (more than 32 feet), and many coastal areas would completely disappear beneath the ocean [Source: NASA]. The IPCC estimates that sea levels rose 17 centimeters (or about 6.7 inches) in the 20th century. Scientists project rising sea levels to continue through the 21st century, with levels increasing between 7 and 22 inches by 2100. The IPCC did not consider changes in ice flow in these projections due to a lack of scientific data. Sea levels will likely be greater than the range of projections, but we can't be sure by how much until more data can be gathered about the effect of global warming on ice flows”. According to this research by scientists, they estimate in the future that there will be a rising of sea levels because of the effects of global warming. Many bacteria will develop themselves and there is going to be more death and a world flooding problems. However, many scientists are fighting and trying to find a solution to this future problem. We have to look forward to find a solution and reduce the risk and to be able to have a safer environment.
Second, greenhouse effects in the Antarctica will cause desertification on our planet. Desertification is also a problem of global warming. According to M. Rosenberg (2007, paras.1, 2, 3), “Deserts, also known as arid lands, are regions that receive less precipitation then their potential evapotranspiration (evaporation from the soil and plants plus transpiration from plants equals evapotranspiration, abbreviated as ET). Deserts are located around the world. The little precipitation and rain that falls in deserts is usually erratic and varies from year to year. While a desert might have an annual average of 5 inches of precipitation, that precipitation may come in the form of 3 inches one year, none the next, 15 inches the third, and 2 inches the fourth. Thus, in arid environments, the annual average tells little about actual rainfall. Rain in the desert is often intense and since the ground is often impermeable (meaning that water isn't absorbed into the ground easily), the water runs quickly right into streams that only exist during rainfalls. The swift water of these ephemeral streams are responsible for most of the erosion that takes place in the desert. Desert rain often never makes it to the ocean, the streams usually end in lakes that dry up or the streams themselves just dry up. Almost all of the rain that falls in Nevada never makes it to a perennial river or to the ocean”. More heat due to global warming specifically in a desert area is catastrophic because the soil will just dry up and the process of absorbing water is reduced by the heat and arid areas will lose more water than they receive. No more precipitation in this area and only heat will dry the soil completely, and increase desertification in all areas.
Finally, greenhouse effects in Antarctica will affect agriculture. Agricultural production will be affected and leads to food shortages. Many countries still use agriculture to produce fresh and healthy food. If agricultural production is affected and lead us to food shortages then the world will be affected by malnutrition, starvation and death due to food and crop shortages. Agriculture production is essential to our lives because by that we can have good quality of food. We will have a serious food production and the world will be have alack of food. Human beings can not leave without food. Food is the only way that can help us survive. Moreover, methane and carbon dioxide are also responsible for the earth’s warming and their implication into the agricultural world.
In conclusion, greenhouse effects in Antarctica are a serious problem that we must take into consideration. Greenhouse effects on earth will be catastrophic and if we do not do something to prevent it, the world will be in danger. However, we have to reduce any risk that will lead to that and be more friendly with nature.

First, greenhouse effects in Antarctica will cause a rise of the sea level. Global warming is a serious problem that most of the countries in the world are fighting against. Sea levels may be affected by greenhouse effects because of the melting of the ice. If there is too much ice that melts in Antarctica, then it means that we have a lot of water that will be added to our current sea and the level will be higher. Higher sea level will cause serious injury to our planet because it may lead to flooding problems. Flooding problems are a consequence of higher sea levels. There will be water everywhere and we as humans will be more vulnerable to diseases and death. According to Grabiamowski & Strickland (n. d, paras.1, 2) “Glaciers and ice shelves around the world are melting.The loss of large areas of ice on the surface could accelerate global warming because less of the sun's energy would be reflected away from Earth to begin with An immediate result of melting glaciers would be a rise in sea levels. Initially, the rise in sea level would only be an inch or two. Even a modest rise in sea levels could cause flooding problems for low-lying coastal areas. However, if the West Antarctic Ice Sheet were to melt and collapse into the sea, it would push sea levels up 10 meters (more than 32 feet), and many coastal areas would completely disappear beneath the ocean [Source: NASA]. The IPCC estimates that sea levels rose 17 centimeters (or about 6.7 inches) in the 20th century. Scientists project rising sea levels to continue through the 21st century, with levels increasing between 7 and 22 inches by 2100. The IPCC did not consider changes in ice flow in these projections due to a lack of scientific data. Sea levels will likely be greater than the range of projections, but we can't be sure by how much until more data can be gathered about the effect of global warming on ice flows”. According to this research by scientists, they estimate in the future that there will be a rising of sea levels because of the effects of global warming. Many bacteria will develop themselves and there is going to be more death and a world flooding problems. However, many scientists are fighting and trying to find a solution to this future problem. We have to look forward to find a solution and reduce the risk and to be able to have a safer environment.
Second, greenhouse effects in the Antarctica will cause desertification on our planet. Desertification is also a problem of global warming. According to M. Rosenberg (2007, paras.1, 2, 3), “Deserts, also known as arid lands, are regions that receive less precipitation then their potential evapotranspiration (evaporation from the soil and plants plus transpiration from plants equals evapotranspiration, abbreviated as ET). Deserts are located around the world. The little precipitation and rain that falls in deserts is usually erratic and varies from year to year. While a desert might have an annual average of 5 inches of precipitation, that precipitation may come in the form of 3 inches one year, none the next, 15 inches the third, and 2 inches the fourth. Thus, in arid environments, the annual average tells little about actual rainfall. Rain in the desert is often intense and since the ground is often impermeable (meaning that water isn't absorbed into the ground easily), the water runs quickly right into streams that only exist during rainfalls. The swift water of these ephemeral streams are responsible for most of the erosion that takes place in the desert. Desert rain often never makes it to the ocean, the streams usually end in lakes that dry up or the streams themselves just dry up. Almost all of the rain that falls in Nevada never makes it to a perennial river or to the ocean”. More heat due to global warming specifically in a desert area is catastrophic because the soil will just dry up and the process of absorbing water is reduced by the heat and arid areas will lose more water than they receive. No more precipitation in this area and only heat will dry the soil completely, and increase desertification in all areas.
Finally, greenhouse effects in Antarctica will affect agriculture. Agricultural production will be affected and leads to food shortages. Many countries still use agriculture to produce fresh and healthy food. If agricultural production is affected and lead us to food shortages then the world will be affected by malnutrition, starvation and death due to food and crop shortages. Agriculture production is essential to our lives because by that we can have good quality of food. We will have a serious food production and the world will be have alack of food. Human beings can not leave without food. Food is the only way that can help us survive. Moreover, methane and carbon dioxide are also responsible for the earth’s warming and their implication into the agricultural world.
In conclusion, greenhouse effects in Antarctica are a serious problem that we must take into consideration. Greenhouse effects on earth will be catastrophic and if we do not do something to prevent it, the world will be in danger. However, we have to reduce any risk that will lead to that and be more friendly with nature.

Advantages of antarctica collapsing
In “Antarctic Ice Shelf Collapse Blamed On More Than Climate Change” by Aberystwyth University, the author talked about a well known iceberg called Larsen B who collapsed in 2002. However, there is some research made by some scientists affirming that the shelf was already collapsing before the summer. He also talked about who was responsible of all this that is happening in the Antarctica region. The blame was not only on climate but in major part by global warming. He told us if the ices collapse what damage it can bring us. Now there is a focus on the Larsen C shelf which is a safer area than the others. To be able to continue his study professor Glasser hope to raise some funds that will help him continue his research and prevent future catastrophic problems in this field. The collapsing ice in the Antarctica can be an advantage and provide us new sea transportation, frozen regions of earth may experience more plant growth and less need for energy consumption to warm cold places.
First, Antarctic ice collapsing will open new sea transportation for humans. New sea transportation will be an advantage to us because due to the frozen region of Antarctica navigation on the sea in that region is impossible. Greenhouse effects will help us in a way that Northwest Passage through Canada's formerly-icy north will be open to sea transportation. It will save people money by allowing them to choose airplane or sea navigation. This can bring an enormous progress to our transportation and allow us to discover more things than we weren’t able to when the Antarctica zone was frozen. It can be an international discovery for human beings and save money to them.
Second, Antarctica ice collapsing will help frozen regions of earth experience more plant growth. Regions on the Antarctica will recover from glacier and the soil will allow plants to grow and allow human beings to live there. It will be a new living place for people. More plant growth means new sign of life and it will bring a significant importance to our planet. More plants and a sign of life in this region also imply a lot of food productivity and a benefit for agriculture. Agriculture is important to our life because by that we have fresh and healthy food. It will be just another region to explore.
Third, Antarctica ice collapsing will benefit us to use less need for energy consumption to warm cold places. Les energy use to warm cold place will benefit us by saving a lot of money. We will be able to save money and invest it where we need it the most. Warming Antarctica require a lot of money and greenhouse effect will just cut that need of us to spend money to warm it. We can invest this money in many fields, health care, develop weapons and even build new roads.
In conclusion, Antarctica problems are a result of man overusing things. We have to reduce greenhouses effects and avoid this kind of problem in the future. Those advantages will be very important for man kind and allow us to do new things.

Is greenhouses a serious problem?
In “Antarctic Ice Collapse Linked to Greenhouse Gases” a web article about the collapsing of iceberg in the Antarctica by Alister. D (2008), the author talks about how the greenhouses effects affect the Antarctica. He also talked about a survey made for an estimation of how theses ices will be affected in the future. The author gives us specific information about some information on previous icebergs that collapse some years ago. The main reason mentioned here was why the critical situation of the Antarctica and his icebergs. The text gives us straight answer about the question and how it happened. We should not let the Antarctica’s ice collapse because it will affect sea levels, it will cause desertification and it will affect agriculture.
First, greenhouses effects in the Antarctica will cause a rise on the sea level. Global warming is a serious problem that most of the countries in the world are fighting against. Sea levels may be affected by green houses effects because of the melting of the ices. If there are too many ices that melt in the Antarctica, then it means that we have a lot of water that will be added to our current sea and the level will be higher. Higher sea level will cause a serious injury to our planet because it may lead to flooding problems. Flooding problems is a consequence of higher sea levels. They will be water everywhere and we as humans will be more vulnerable to diseases and death. According to Grabiamowski & Strickland (n. d, paras.1, 2) “Glaciers and ice shelves around the world are melting [Source: Guardian Unlimited]. The loss of large areas of ice on the surface could accelerate global warming because less of the sun's energy would be reflected away from Earth to begin with (refer back to our discussion of the greenhouse effect). An immediate result of melting glaciers would be a rise in sea levels. Initially, the rise in sea level would only be an inch or two. Even a modest rise in sea levels could cause flooding problems for low-lying coastal areas. However, if the West Antarctic Ice Sheet were to melt and collapse into the sea, it would push sea levels up 10 meters (more than 32 feet), and many coastal areas would completely disappear beneath the ocean [Source: NASA].

Human beings can not leave without food. Food is the only way that can help us survive. According to R Preston & Leng (1989, paras 1-4) “The greenhouse effect, or increasing world temperature, is clearly ascribable to the major industrial countries of the northern hemisphere as some 50% of the increased retention of energy by the atmosphere is due to the accumulation of carbon dioxide as a result of combustion of fossil fuel. Methane production appears to be a major issue although it only presently contributes 18% of the overall warming. It is accumulating at a fast rate and is apparently responsible for some of the depletion of the protective ozone layer. Methane arises largely from natural anaerobic ecosystems, rice paddies and ruminant animals. The rates of accumulation of methane and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere have changed dramatically in the last 10 years. Prior to this, the rise in world temperatures and composition of the atmosphere had changed little but is now in an exponential growth period. Undoubtedly, carbon dioxide and methane concentrations must be stabilized in the very near future or the future of the earth is threatened. The developing (non-industrial) countries must insist on a decreased utilization of fossil fuels by the industrial countries. It will be essential that they also develop industrial and agricultural practices that minimize fossil fuel use and methane generation. Burning of fossil fuels is the predominant factor but deforestation and burning of forests and pastures have enormous effects also.” According to this statement, methane and carbon dioxide are also responsible for the earth’s warming and their implication into the agricultural world.
In conclusion, greenhouses effects in the Antarctica are a serious problem that we must take into consideration. Greenhouses effect on earth will be catastrophic and if we do not do something to prevent it, the world will be in danger. However, we have to reduce any risk that will lead to that and be more friendly with nature.

Amphibian Crises is getting worse
In this article, “Major Initiative Proposed To Address Amphibian Crises”, the author explains that amphibian extinction and declines are getting worse every day. According to scientists, 32 percent of all amphibian species are endangered as well as threatened. Amphibians play an important role in the ecosystem as well as they have ecological ripple effects. Amphibians are sensitive animals that need protection against ultraviolet radiation, pollutants, pesticides, habitat loss, invasive species and fungal diseases. There are many programs that are being carried on in order to protect and recover the amphibian, such as training, monitoring, salvage operations, disease management, captive breeding as well as other efforts. There are a lot of concerns about the amphibian disappearance. They can disappear in six months. A lot of amphibians have disappeared in North and South America, Europe, Asia, and Africa. It is necessary to create laws and policies that contribute to the protection of the amphibian’s species in order to save some of them.
In many places in the world people do not care about amphibians. After a while this kind of animals is going to disappear, and to solve these problems, we need to protect them, because they have heart and soul and we need to save them from the pollution. There are many ways to protect amphibians, namely stop hurting the environment, helping them propagate, and being eating them.
First, because of what is happening in the world today by global warming and pollution, day by day we are going to lose amphibians, and to protect these animals we need to stop hurting the environment by cutting trees and leaving the damages without cleaning them. This damage can kill large numbers and decrease the level of amphibians’ species. However, to protect amphibians’ species we need to take care by making the amphibians’ area in good condition, not collecting them for fun, and avoiding killing them, so they can live better.
Second, we are losing many kinds of species, which means we need to make them become more and more by making them live in good area that makes them have sex to help them propagate, because many kinds of amphibians have disappeared. So we need to make them have a strong species, we can save amphibians from disappearing. Moreover, some people have asked how could we make them grow? They usually live in the sea or in the land, and they do not have enough food to eat, and many of them have disappeared because of the high temperature of sea or lands. Actually, we can help amphibians if we at least can move them to the places that have low temperature. Another solution is to build a clinic that takes care of amphibians.
Finally, in many countries people like to eat amphibians. On the other hand, other countries like to collect them for sale or for fun, and some amphibians we can use to get medicine from to cure some human disease. Unfortunately, if we do not do something to stop these problems we will lose animals that play a real serious role in our ecosystem, and we will face real problems that affect human life.
In conclusion, pollution and global warming are very important issues we should take care of because these affect not only human beings but also amphibians and the environment. I hope people really care about animals the same as they care about human life. We need to feel amphibians as one serious part in our life. We can be happy if there are many amphibians trying every single day to fight to survive, and stay alive.

Facebook Advantage
How many friends do you have? Can you believe that you can stay with them 24 hours? Today Facebook is the famous social network sites that can give you a chance to connect with your friends easily. Day by day Facebook is becoming trendy between people. Many people use Facebook everyday; they spend the time by sending messages and keeping in touch with their friends. And these people think that Facebook is like part of their habit. Some people are wondering what Facebook is? Facebook is a website that you can add many friends, add pictures, send messages to your friends and watch news.
First, communication is the most important part of our live, without columniation people can't have friends, and they can't have relationship. Today Facebook can give people chance to find their parents. For example, there are many people get married from Facebook, they ca find their parents by go in Facebook and looking for the person that they want by know all information about that person like age, habit, and information about his personality. On the other hand, people can meet each other and have friends from many countries. Facebook is made to many purposes that people who live far from their families they can connect with them easily. According to Unregistred (n.d. para.6), “Communication is a universal bonding agent, therefore, it must be understood in order to achieve any goal in today's competitive world. In order for today's students to be prepared for the future, it is important that communication development is accentuated throughout the educational process. Once the seeds of motivation sprout in the minds of students', the students will flourish academically.” As we know many people travel to other courtiers to study or to find jobs in other countries, and sometimes they cant call their families so, Facebook is the good way to connect with your families by send messages and meet them online, and it's not expansive. For example; many people do not use phone to call their parents from other countries, they use Facebook as to communicate with their parents and friends by post their pictures on Facebook to let their parents and friends see it or by text messages. As we know many cafe shop serves a free network, so many people can use the internet to communicate with their friends by using Facebook by free without caste them money.
Second, Facebook helps people showcase ideas around the world. Facebook allows people to post their ideas for free. The main reason Facebook is allowing people to share their idea is that, the idea was starting from a student at Havard University that developed this idea for hobbies. Soon it got big and people all over the nearest country heard about him and it became bigger. People can show their idea, chat with people and connect with each other. Showing your idea on a site where it is free of charge is a thing that human can’t afford to lose. Expressing yourself freely is a chance that Facebook is giving people to express themselves and participate in the development of democracy. Democracy is the real meaning of sharing ideas around the world. In today’s world countries that are not under democracy are in war like Zimbabwe and other countries. For example I have the chance to share my idea online and all over the world without restriction and without fear of having the consequences. According to Laure Locke (2007, para.5), “That's the critical part of it. Our whole theory is that people have real connections in the world. People communicate most naturally and effectively with their friends and the people around them. What we figured is that if we could model what those connections were, [we could] provide that information to a set of applications through which people want to share information, photos or videos or events. But that only works if those relationships are real. That's a really big difference between Facebook and a lot of other sites. We're not thinking about ourselves as a community — we're not trying to build a community — we're not trying to make new connections.” The author of Facebook is giving us the real reason of Facebook and what make it different from other sites. It is not just a site but also a living site that allows people meet each other and interact with each other.
Finally, Facebook saves record. Facebook helps people by saving record just by saving every single bit of information that they can. Saving records is one advantage among others. For any record that you look for you might find it on Facebook. Records theses days are very important because people like to keep old things and remember them forever. Records also might be good moments during your life or something that positively affects you during your teens. Facebook is actually a really good site that I really like and I very much like the records that they have on it. It is again for us do many things and actually among all the advantages it is very famous.
In conclusion, Facebook offers many advantages that we can gain information from. The popularity of Facbook is known worldwide and people are aware of what Facebook is and what it does. Hi success is also known worldwide and people actually love it. The main goal of Faebook is sharing idea and connects with people all over the world. I think that Facebook is very good and it actually helps me and other people too.

First, communication is the most important part of our live, without columniation people can't have friends, and they can't have relationship. Today Facebook can give people chance to find their parents. For example, there are many people get married from Facebook, they ca find their parents by go in Facebook and looking for the person that they want by know all information about that person like age, habit, and information about his personality. On the other hand, people can meet each other and have friends from many countries. Facebook is made to many purposes that people who live far from their families they can connect with them easily. According to Unregistred (n.d. para.6), “Communication is a universal bonding agent, therefore, it must be understood in order to achieve any goal in today's competitive world. In order for today's students to be prepared for the future, it is important that communication development is accentuated throughout the educational process. Once the seeds of motivation sprout in the minds of students', the students will flourish academically.” As we know many people travel to other courtiers to study or to find jobs in other countries, and sometimes they cant call their families so, Facebook is the good way to connect with your families by send messages and meet them online, and it's not expansive. For example; many people do not use phone to call their parents from other countries, they use Facebook as to communicate with their parents and friends by post their pictures on Facebook to let their parents and friends see it or by text messages. As we know many cafe shop serves a free network, so many people can use the internet to communicate with their friends by using Facebook by free without caste them money.
Second, Facebook helps people showcase ideas around the world. Facebook allows people to post their ideas for free. The main reason Facebook is allowing people to share their idea is that, the idea was starting from a student at Havard University that developed this idea for hobbies.

Facebook is a social networking site that connects you with your people in your area. Facebook is one benefit of technology and we have to be thankful for the people that made it possible. Today’s world relies on technology. According to D. Ziff (n.d, para.1), “Facebook is a social networking site founded in 2004 by Mark Zuckerberg. It initially targeted Harvard students, but was later opened to other universities and then high schools. In 2006, Facebook allowed everyone to join and also added a News Feed feature that would broadcast changes in members' pages to all Facebook users identified in their personal network of friends. It turned Facebook into a personalized social news service.” Facebook made an unbelievable revolution in the market of platforms and what it offers customers. It is free, without charge and you can do whatever you want and avoid nudity pictures. According to D. Ziff (n.d, para.4), “In late 2007, Facebook introduced its Beacon social advertising program, which tracks Facebook users who visit the advertisers' sites. Ads are then targeted to the friends of these users indicating that their friend has taken some action such as purchasing a product, renting a video or signing up for a service. The system was launched as an opt-out service in the beginning, causing enormous controversy. It was later changed to opt-in’’. I personnaly believe that Facebook is getting more attention from media like other networks site. It is actually more popular that others because many students and people use Facebook for chatting, saving money and keep in touch with their friends. Others log on to find a date. Facebook is really helping people to do extraordinary things.In facts, Facebook is still in use today and many people love what they offer as services. Facebook should be more efficient, it should address privacy problem and education.
When we look at the Facebook background, the history that he came up with the success of that site is very impressive. In “The Facebook - The Complete Biography” by Siv. Yadav (2006, para 3), “Originally called thefacebook, Facebook was founded by former-Harvard student Mark Zuckerberg (while at Harvard) who ran it as one of his hobby projects with some financial help from Eduardo Saverin. Within months, Facebook and its core idea spread across the dorm rooms of Harvard where it was very well received. Soon enough, it was extended to Stanford and Yale where, like Harvard, it was widely endorsed. Before he knew it, Mark Zuckerberg was joined by two other fellow Harvard-students - Dustin Moskovitz and Chris Hughes - to help him grow the site to the next level. Only months later when it was officially a national student network phenomenon, Zuckerberg and Moskovitz dropped out of Harvard to pursue their dreams and run Facebook full time. In August 2005, thefacebook was officially called Facebook and the domain facebook.com was purchased for a reported $200,000.” Facebook has become a very popular social network website, and it’s the trendy way to keep in touch between people. According to Rose (2007), by 2004 millions of people have come to use Facebook website; this habit starts when a student makes an account in the Facebook and they make it to check each other and make a friend online.
First, Facebook is not compatible with Internet Explorer and Firefox. Sometimes when you load up your page with Internet Explorer or Firefox and you try to upload some pictures, the page freezes up and you have to restart your machine. It is a really bad thing and one inconvenience of Facebook. Some compatibilities with these software need to be proven and need to be fixed. According to Erick on a Discussion board on Facebook, ( 2008, para.1), “ Whenever I try to upload photos onto facebook the browser just jumps to not responding and stays there. I can create photo albums I just can't add photos to them or update on them. I read about fixing that through firefox, but unfortunately I'm not allowed to put it on my computer. Does anybody have any suggestions?” People are having problems with uploading their pictures because of the non accepting script of Internet Explorer and Firefox. For example I have a computer and I use Firefox and anytime I try to upload some photos my computer freeze up. It is really annoying for your computer to freeze for just a simple script.They should try to fix it because it really matter for customers and it can make them really nervous about it.
Second, Facebook has privacy problems. Facebook owners already know that Facebook has address privacy problems and how it really matter for customers on the site. According to Gremillion, S (2008, para.7,8,9), “Facebook was once again the center of privacy-related issues in late 2007 when intrepid software engineers discovered code in a new Facebook application that looked at the data stored on users' computers and reported them back to Facebook. The application was "Facebook Beacon" and it was intended to further integrate the social networking utility into users' lives. The application was also partially intended to target ads so that companies could market directly to the consumers who would be interested in their products. Through the Beacon program, Facebook and its initial partners tracked and recorded user transactions. The program scanned hard drives specifically for Facebook login files containing the users' login names. The login name would tie the transaction to the user, and the information would end up posted on the user's profile.” People feel insecured because Facebook was watching watch every move we made. People do not have privacy at all and what should we do about it? We should try to protest and let them understand our rights as users. The site was designed to watch every single move on any hard drive when you log on into their site. They really have to make a move about it and satisfy the users more.
Finally, Facebook is used for bullying. People that are underage are the one exposed to bad pictures and nudity videos. We have to look forward to ban all these from Facebook because it is nationwide and every body are using it. We have to watch our kids because it will give them bad education. According to Bogdan, P (2008, para.1,2), “There are lots of people who think that Facebook and all the other social networks on the web have a bad influence over kids and teenagers, but a Saudi father went beyond this. Because her daughter was using Facebook to socialize and to communicate with members of the opposite sex on the Internet, the father has beaten the girl and then shot her dead. It may sound extreme, but Saudis have always been harsh when it comes to their Islamic beliefs and since Facebook allows young users to flirt and make new and unknown friends, I wonder why it's not banned already...However, it may seem like banning Facebook would not be quite the best solution as Saudis would be looking for other social networks as soon as this one becomes unavailable. Speaking for The Daily Mail, a 27-year-old woman living in Saudi Arabia admitted that Facebook has a pretty bad influence over their teenagers as many of them use the website to meet members of the opposite sex, although their beliefs clearly prohibit this kind of activity.” For example, in Saudi Arabia people are really strict with religion and don’t like opposite sex talk to their daughter and that’s why they cover their face with a black tissue. She may talk to a man only if she is engaged to a man. Religion in my country is more important than education itself. According to Cassandra, Szklarski (2008, para. 7, 12, 13), '' In recent years, it's faced criticism over privacy concerns and controversy over online bullying. This looks like a situation where there's probably some of that but also maybe ... (there's) older people who haven't experienced the positive effects of Facebook but hear the news stories about some of the negative aspects (and) may be accentuating the negative a little bit more. Those who saw Facebook in a negative light included 22 per cent of the younger group and 26 per cent of the older group.'' What people are facing on the internet is bullying and it is bad for education. We have to look for a way of protecting underage children by retricting some site for them. Parents should control that for their children and watch them while they are online. It is a real problem in some countries to use online stuff to communicate with people of the opposite sex. Facebook should try to review their policies and be strict about nudity stuff and how they can make education, stop bullying and make internet better for people.
Opponents argue that Facebook is a good website that allows them to communicate with friends and stay in touch. First, it saves money to users that are using it, second it is free and you can do whatever you want on the site. However, people should not only consider the benefits. They have to look for the disadvantages and see what it gives them. We really have to take a step forward and auto-educate our self about the problems. Auto-educate ourselves means simply that we can get more information about what we are interesting on and know the bad side and the good side of it. If we do educate ourselves, I think it will be a better way of anticipating problems like bullying in the Internet and how bad pictures affect children. We can talk about it to our children and let them know what they possibly endure on the Internet.
In conclusion, Facebook is a good website where you connect yourself with people around you. Technology is the one responsible for this accomplishment and the scientists. We have to look deeper into the problems and see what we can save and replace for a better educated environment and Facebook have to stop violating people’s privacy.

Wikipedia is it helpful or not?
Wikipedia is the website that has a lot of information; it is like a big library that owns many different articles and general information. This website is very helpful for the students and the college; many students around the world use this website to help them in their homework, and their research paper. In this website you can find any topic that you would like to know more about like articles, data, pictures, news and any resources. However, the problems are because anyone can put a lot of information and articles in this website, so that means people can find some of this information is not accrate. So there are many disadvantages of using this website; namely, Wikipedia gives us untrue information, this Wikipedia does not help students with academic work, and this website should not be trusted.
First, as we know Wikipedia has a lot of information, and many people just can go and use this information, whther the information is true or not. According to J, Wolverton, (2007, para 11), "it is not the number of articles available on Wikipedia that is up for debate, though. The argument amongst scholars is that the information available on Wikipedia is not necessarily accurate and that the articles themselves are particularly susceptible to Internet vandalism." Some students use there articles in their homework and in their research paper; that means this website makes the student confused to figure out what the right article is that should they use.
The next reason, as we know most of the people who use Wikipedia are students and teachers; those people have a perch in our community. Those people need a good website to help them in their jobs. On the other hand, when those people use this website they are going to find many articles that people made without using academic words. According to E, Bilodeau (2008, para.8), "Academics who ban students from using the web, Google, Wikipedia, or similar resources are doing those students a grave disservice. Students need to learn how to assess the relevance and authority of information sources independent of their media. They need to learn what constitutes an authorities source, in academia and especially in their field of study. They need to learn how to navigate the complexities and ambiguities of the information at their disposal". So after a while our education will be decreasing, because of this kind of website that gives us bad information. It is Because of this kind of website that makes the students confused, and makes them not really learn as much as the website should that has given them academic work.
Third, Wikipedia is one of the many websites that are trying to help people around the world. We should ask ourselves if Wikipedia is one other kind of Greenwash? As we see many people think that Wikipedia should not be trusted anymore because anyone can go to this website and change the information, some people are doing this for fun. According to N, Martin. (2008, para. 5), "under the current system, anyone can edit at any time, which means that people often post inaccurate and sometimes malicious information." that means this website is not helpful, and the people should not trust any of that information that was writen in this website, because soon they will find some mistakes in this website.
In conclusion, we would like to have a website that anybody can use, but if we want to have a website like this, people should make a good one that has good quality. Wikipedia is one example of those websites that do not have any quality to serve it to the people, because Wikipedia does not help students with academic work, and this website should not be trusted.

Facebook helps our life
Is Facebook addiction or not? In this article, "Facing up to the future: How cyber social networking site Facebook has taken the world by storm", the author discusses the fact that a Facebook member found it addictive, it almost messed up, and it was all about photos and chatting. On the other hand, about 62 million people use Facebook for the same reasons. According to the article, networking sites have radically changed the interaction between males and females. Also, Some people using Facebook to concurred about regulations, rich behavior and some possible cases like they want to be friends just for fun.
I agree when the author mentions that the social network website "Facebook" networking sites have radically changed the interaction between males and females. That means Facebook makes people more open, and makes people from many countries communicate easily without problems. This development makes people spend their time having many friends and watch friends’ news online. On the other hand, social network website is become more popular in the world, and this website is a very trendy habit among old and young people. However, there are many advantages of using the social network website that people should pay attention to when they want to have Facebook's accounts: Communication, culture and fun.
First, communication is the most important part in our life, and we should not be communicating by phone or messages. With other people the Communication is becoming easier, because some people have difficulties to communicate face to face because of their shyness. Some others fear being rejected because of their appearance, Facebook gives them the chance to show their personalities, the beauty of their spirit. According to Patterson, networking sites have readily changed the interaction between males and women for the worst; this is right but only for those who are using Facebook and other networking sites the wrong way. Facebook was created first to enhance the communication between Harvard students, it successfully did. Then, gradually, it spread to the whole community of America, and then the whole world.
Second, Facebook allows people to increase bonds and culture. Many people all over the world are using Facebook not only to communicate but also to know about their friend’s culture. Learning new culture is a gain to each individual person that registers on Facebook whether they want it or not. The process is such that when you have an account on Facebook and you have many friends, you can ask about their information and know with whom you are communicating with. It is better for us as human beings that we should know with whom we communicate. According to F. stutzman (2006, Q.2), “On the nature of friendship in Facebook, my research has shown that Facebook users average hundreds of friends. This means that the nature of friendship is different and culturally unique in the Facebook. Friendship in the Facebook is cultural currency - I link to you and you link to me. Implicit in this is a one-time exchange of social capital, nothing more. However, friendship is an absolutely core element of the service, and with this change, the nature of friendship in the service, and everything that goes along with it, changes. From now on, when you friend someone, you're agreeing to let them have a feed of everything you do - this is a huge difference from the previous notion of friendship, which users were quite comfortable with”. Facebook allows people to be able to learn about other people’s culture without being in their country. For example, I have an account on Facebook and I can not guarantee you that I know all my friends. However, I know each single person I communicate with and their culture to allow a strong friendship between them and I. Today’s world is based on technology and Facebook is a creation of technology that allows people to know about others’ countries’ culture.
Third, the author uses Facebook users as an example, saying that users are using Facebook only for "the cryptic messages, wacky photos and the salacious chatter", and this the reason why many People can after chatting and photos can use those porn sites to satisfy their lust. Those people who are using Facebook for the same reason Patterson's example, dose, are abusing the website, they are taking advantage of Fcebook's privacy and security, this is not Facebok’s fault. Facebook privacy and high security; was created to receive their users who are using the site in the right way. Now, If some people are saying that the level of privacy is not enough, then I say that they didn’t know a about the flexibility of the privacy and security options offered by Facebook. As a Facebook user one can choose who can view their full profile, and who can view their profile at all. In addition to that, one can manage notification messages received as well as sent, no one can view or receive any thing about a users without prior permission.
In conclusion, Facebook is a good website where we connect yourself with people around you Technology is the one responsible for this accomplishment and the scientists. On the other hand, we need to know that Facebook change the interaction between males and females, and that because many people use Facebook to have friends, to communicate, and to have fun.

Technology should be allowed or restrained?
In this article “Controversy blights UN net summit “ the author discusses the controversy over censorship and who runs the Internet and this issue can affect the technologies around the countries. Moreover this issue can decrease the economic development of the technology in many countries, even in the rich countries. According to the article much countries still need to use the Internet technology to be secure from any crime and get many information to improve the development in the countries.
I agree when the author mentions that many countries should not stop the communication of using the technology because many countries are development and they need the technology to support the develop by using the internet to have more information, to widen business and to support students learning.
First, many countries today are using the information as the only resource that can improve the technology and the communication. On the other hand, it may be better for people to have enough information to learn about other countries by going to the websites and research on the Internet to find any information that people needs, and this communication can develop the education around the world.
Second, many countries today are developing by technology and business is one important factors that improves the economy. On the other hand, many factories and companies are using the Internet technology for business. For example, many people are shopping online, because many companies use the Internet to sell clothing, cars, food, homes and electronic machines. As a result, the Internet technology can be the easy solution to help servicing the people who can not go shopping; they can use the internet technology to get what they need.
Third, as we know the education is developing in many countries and day by day the technology is becoming a very important part of studies in the school and college, and the internet technology supports the student learning and improves their skills. For example, students use the Internet to research about topics and find articles to do their homework, to study the logic of the classes online and to catch the classes online if they were absent. On the other hand, studies online have become popular in many cases in colleges and in different levels of schools. This technology makes it much easier for education to help the students in their classes.
In conclusion, Internet technology is the most important part of developing our countries and making our lives easier, in that we can use the Internet to have more information, to wider business and to support students, learning. Today the Internet is the fastest technology that lets all countries communicate with other countries in the world without any problems. “As long as we have technology we will have a happy life”.

The effect of cell phones on the people
Do you believe that there are many people have been killed by their cell phones? Have you ever imagined that cell phone can kill many people in the world? Today using the cell phone while driving is the most dangerous issue that effect people by menace human life, strong law can decrease the level of accident and makes people get stress. Is very important for people to respect the road's rule and be attention to the safety road direction to save our life and other people's life. Today using a cell phone during people drive is very dangers habit, this is important issue the drivers should be care about it.
First, driving with using a cell phone menace human life. Is very important to know that a cell phone is one of the biggest danger issues that effect human life. For example, "It is the telephone conversation that is the main problem. People are drawn into the conversation and ignore what is happening on the road around them" Clinton, (2003). He explains that cell phone makes people loss their attention on the road and get accident. Therefore, that can be menace human life. On the other hand, using the cell phone during people drives can be removing the bad behavior for our children. On the other word, when parents talk to the cell phone while they drive of course the children going to follow the same bad behavior. For example, when the father setting and watch TV all the time the child going to do the same behavior. So now people will drive with no bad behavior they should avoid any thing during they drive.
Second, strong law can decrease the level of accidents is increase because of using the cell phone while people driving. Many countries face problems with the high level of road accident. For example, Saudi Arabia is the highest level that has accident in the world and that because the government don’t put a serous punishment of people who drives and use a cell phone in the same time. "We are delighted to see a new law, but it will not have the impact we have been hoping for if people switch to hands-free devices instead" Clinton. (2003). He means good law with strong punishment can help to decrease the level of accident.
Finally, stress is the most of worse problems that happen while using a cell phone during people drive. Stress can drove people crazy spatially when people drive, how about when they use the cell phone during people drive that can cast worse result on the road. For example, "The study strongly suggests that mobile phone use is associated with specific changes in the areas of the brain responsible for activating and coordinating the stress system" Arnetzt (2008). He explains that stress can affect people when thy using cells phone during drive. On the other hand, stress has negative issue. For example, people get fight with each other, more stress specific in the rash hour times. To avoid the stress people should avoid any things that get their attrition away specially the cell phones.
The opponent’s argument says using a cell phone while drive is normal because they think is important to answer it could be emergency call. However, the problem with their argument is not safety for the drivers because using the cell phone while people drive is very dangers issue. However, if it’s important call there are many solutions to fix the problem. For example, they can use the cell phone but in the parking cars area; they can add an answer machine so any one can add the message and later when he arrive he can call back. " Missing a call won't kill you - an accident quite possibly could." David, (2003). The most important issue is to protect your life better than answer your phone.
In conclusion, people should not use their cells phones when they drive. The reasons are: that could drive people to get more stress, increase the level of accident and menace human life. People should get their attention and know how danger is to use a cell phone during the driving. If all people using the cell phone during driving, we are going to face many roads’ problems in the future.

Would you like Fries With Your Clone?
In this article "Would You Like Fries With Your Clone?" by Guterl, (2008). The author talks about the big developing of the food in Europe and the United State by cloning the meat and milk in the healthy way. Europeans develop a new way with their food by using the (GM) food. Also, they get the meat and milk from the animals by clone to produce more meat and milk. On the other hand, the clone of the cow does not result a perfect meat or milk, and that is because of the DNA. Clone will not give the same benefit for original food, and this is a danger issue of clone. According to the article, Europeans discovered there is no difference between the natural cow and the clone cow to get the quality meat or milk because clone does not affect the generation of the DNA. Finally, the author’s opinion is that cloned animals are safe and consumers do not have to be concerned about that issue.
It is important to recognize that the author’s opinion is correct because cloned animals provide same quality and taste. Cloned animals are good for farming advance, also can be big solution to produce more animals and gat more food because cloned animals will improve technology, provide more income from the clone and help poor countries.
First, cloned animals can improve technology. For example, in the past the farmers should wait until the caw grow up and then they give here good food to be fat, but now by clone the caw have a lot of fat by (GM) food, and get more food. This technology can improve our economy and if the clone used in many of poor countries they will get enough food and the world will not face problems with the food crises because clone will decrease the food problems and will be the best solution if they use clone.
Second, provide more meat by clone more cows. Many countries have low income from the animals because when population increasing the level of animal’s income is going down. As a result we can get more food and milk by use the DNA and this can help the economic issue.
Third, cloned animal can improve and help the food crises. As much we cloned animal as much we going to have enough food that cover people needs. For example, Macs can use the clone to send it to the poor countries. And this can product many courtiers to get food crises problems.
In conclusion, there are many advantage of use animals clone. Cloned animals can improve technology, provide more meat by clone more cows and cloned animal can improve and help the food crises.

In "Solution for Africa's Food Crises",(2006). The author says, "Millions of Africans are dying each year from extreme malnutrition and the disease that take advantage of their weakness". Many people in many countries face problems with the food crises. There are many families in many countries that do not have enough food to feed their children. While we enjoying Pizza hut, MacDonald and KFC, On the other side there are other people how can not find five pieces of rice. We should to find some ways to make those people to have enough food, and we need to effect of the food crises of the people. There are many solutions to help the hungry people: we should plan to improve soil enrichment; encourage the farmers, and we should activate the GM seeds.
Food crises are situation where the level of the food that does not cover the need of the people who are living in the same area. These problems it is happened for long time. There is no specific date for the beginning of the food crises: There are many events happen in the world about the food crises: spread disease between the plant and that because many people using the green land in different purpose. In "Gambia; Food Crises Monitoring and Prevention Training On the way",(2007). The author says "Medium Term Plan for development in the context of vision 2020' in 2005 indicates that 47 percent of the population lie below the poverty line" so, in this situation Gambia face problem with the high percent of food crises. In " Somalia Two Million Face Crises, Warn Agencies" (2008). "An estimated two million people in Somalia are facing a humanitarian crisis and need urgent aid". In this issue we can see the problems that effect Somalia because of the big decreasing in the food around the world, and how this problems effect humanitarian.
First, to solve the food crises we need to improve soil enrichment. Soil is the important part of growing plant. However, the farmer should make a good condition and they should make sure that soil dose not have any of chemical problems. In Environment: Problems and Solution the author sates "Losing topsoil makes a soil less fertile and less able to hold water. The resulting sediment, the largest source of water pollution, clogs irrigation ditches, boat channels, reservoirs, and lakes. The water becomes cloudy and tastes bad, fish die, and food risk increases" (p.34). That’s mean the government should protect the soil from any environmental problems.
Second, the government should encourage the farmer. As we know the farmer work every day to produce good food for us, and the government should encourage them by availability and good condition to make them work comfortable to produce good feed quality. First, the government should give farmers a high salary to make them have ability to work heartily. For example, when farmers have enough money they can bay equipment, and buy more place to improve the income from agriculture. Second, government should give insurance to farmers. As we know farmers has difficult job and they need insurance to protect them from any problems. For example, many farmers run down or get hurt by machine so they need guarantee that makes them go to the hospital and take medication. If we have many farmers that can make the food crises become decrease.
Third, the government should activate the GM seeds. In this days many countries use the GM seeds as the fast solution to grow their agriculture in the healthy way. However, there are many poor countries that have problems with food crises, and they do not have money to get GM seeds. As a solution first, send GM seeds to poor countries to avoid the food crises problems. For example, poor countries do not have good soil to grow the plants and their will get poorly agriculture. GM seeds can help the farmers to have good quality of food and vegetables. Second, the government should built factories for GM seeds. When the government built factories that can decrease the food crises problems and make the food crises go down in the poor countries. Roskam (2007), wrights "GM food can make up for the vitamin deficiency of the world's malnourished".
Opponents of the idea which is MDCs should give food to LDCs say that we should send food to LDCs because they should find solving for them problems. However, this is untrue because the MDCs should help LDCc because they have more food and the purpose of the help is to decrease the food crises in the world. People now are dying and we should to stop this problem because they are human like as and we should take care for them. For example, there are many people die in Somalia, many people die in tsunami and that because of food crises and they do not have enough food. More over, let help them now and then we should tech them how to live. And we need to give them all material by built college that help them to learn how to agriculture and to grow plant to let them have the benefits from their land. We need to move to help people and send them some food to decrease the effect of the food crises in the poor countries.
In conclusion, we should help or support the people who are face the food crises by following the next idea, improve soil enrichment, encourage the farmers and we should activate the GM seeds. How we can imagine that we can eat a lot of delicious food and many people around the world sleep without any food. We need to think about other people or even try to help them because there are human like us. We would like to live in this world with out any problems but before we enjoy this life we need to think about other people who dreaming every day to sleep without any problems.
