iPad: Pushing More Americans to Pay More for Wireless Service
Posted by Olga Kharif on January 27
On Jan. 27, Apple said it will soon make available a version of its iPad tablet computer able to run over AT&T‟s wireless network, as long as you pay $15 or $30 a month for service. The device could usher in the era of more people paying wireless charges for multiple mobile devices.
In other parts of the world, paying for multiple mobile devices is already commonplace. In Italy, people often own several phones, one for calling and one for messaging. And Americans should follow suit. In a few years, each American will own four or five mobile devices, each of them requiring a voice or a data plan, figures wireless expert Chetan Sharma.
A small percentage of Americans already pays for service for several mobile devices. Amazon‟s Kindle e-reader comes with wireless connectivity to Sprint Nextel‟s network priced in. Some consumers pay monthly charges for data cards, allowing them to connect their laptops to wireless networks. The iPad, which some analysts expect to sell 5 million units in its first year, could push the idea of paying for service for non-phone devices into the mainstream. If the iPad takes off, that is.
That, in turn, could lead to the introduction of family plans for devices, an idea analysts have talked about for years. A carrier might sell you a pool of wireless minutes and data access to be used by your stable of three or four wireless devices, such as a tablet, a gaming console, a car navigation system and your phone.
Clearly, as Americans snap up more wireless gadgets that require wireless plans, carriers stand to benefit, big time. Their costs in pushing these gadgets to consumers should be low: The devices‟ manufacturers will do the heavy lifting of marketing and selling the gadgets in their stores. The devices won‟t necessarily have to be subsidized; AT&T won‟t subsidize the iPad, Jefferies analyst Jonathan Schildkraut says in a Jan. 27 note. The carriers will likely have to share service revenues with the manufacturers, though, and those service fees may be smaller than regular phone charges. But even those fees could drive the carriers‟ growth for years to come, Sharma says.

Nature in danger of extinction[
We are destroying our forests faster than any other ecological zone in our planet. 
Forests cover only 6% of the Earth’s lands but they have between 50% to 90% of all plant and animal species from the planet. But unfortunately, humanity is destroying the forests faster and faster.
Many species of the rainforests (the ones that are located in a tropical area and which receive a lot of rain) benefit all of us. Many medicines (pharmaceuticals), for example, come from the rainforest. China, Brazil, Australia, and Mexico have a large number of species in extinction.
We are losing 50-100 species of plants and animals every day. Lost of species become extinct from natural processes. If we lose 50% of our planet’s species, it will take evolution 5-20 million years to replace them. Humans should help endangered species. We can work together to stop this destruction!

A música “Hunting High and Low” foi um dos grandes sucessos da banda norueguesa A-ha na década de 80. Leia a letra da canção e responda a questão. 


Hunting High and low

(Paul Waaktaar-Savoy)


Here I am

And within the reach of my hands

She sounds asleep

And she's sweeter now

Than my wildest dream

Could have seen her.

And I watch her sleeping away

But I know I'll be

Hunting high and low

Ah, there's no end

To the lengths I'll go to

Find her again

Upon this my dreams are depending

Through the dark

I sense the pounding of her heart

Next to mine

She's the sweetest love

I could find

So I guess I'll be

Hunting high and low

Do you know what it means

To love you

I'm hunting high and low

And now she's telling me

She's got to go away

I'll always be hunting high and low

Only for you

Watch me tearing myself to pieces,

Oh, for you I'll be hunting high and low

Summer Jobs

    It's easy to find a summer job in this town because there are plenty of restaurants and bars that need extra help in the tourist season.
    I've had a lot of different jobs here - I've been a pizza delivery person, a babysitter, a kitchen assistant... but this is the first time I've worked in a bar. The pay is alright and people here are cool, but I have to put up with late hours... oh, and drunk customers once in a while.
    I've been here for about two months now. All in all, I like it, but the best part is – I have already saved enough money to spend a couple of weeks in New York visiting my old college roommate Christine.
    We have been best friends since we were eighteen years old. Chris has been here to visit me twice, so now it's my turn to visit her. I've never been to New York before so I'm really looking forward to this trip.
    I've already booked the flight, bought new clothes and arranged with a neighbor to water my plants while I'm out. I can't wait!
