    I wonder how many students at BSGE think the privacy is dead.

    Try this little game

    This is a cute little game ms brownstone. I'm pretty sure its for little kids who don't really have the greatest common sense. I think it could actually be very helpful for these kids who are first starting to surf the internet and open up their first e-mail accounts. I remember in 3rd grade i created my first e-mail, and i would get these e-mails. I usually had the common sense to not open these spam emails. However, as a child, I did not know how smart the senders were and i got fooled once and it led to a virus on my computer. Luckily enough, my dad could fix anything, and got rid of the virus and everything seemed okay. This game could have really helped at that time. However, it is still good that you posted it for us (bsge tech students) to look at because it gives us an idea on games that teach lessons, which could be useful.

    This is funny. I did not intend to post this here. :-) It's for my 7th graders. Will try to redirect it. Thanks, Yuval, for the heads up.

  • Cell Phone
  • those who frequently use cell phones on a certain side of their head are 50% more likely than non-cell-phone-users to develop a tumor in the salivary gland on that side of the head.

      people are frequently on their cell phones for many reasons and most of the time they have the cell phone on a specific side of their head without the knowledge of the radition coming from the cell phone can be harmful to their body
  • the precautionary principle suggests practices such as using a wired headset instead of a Bluetooth earpiece, and enabling the speaker function rather than holding the phone to your ear. In addition, rather than storing the cell phone in your pocket, keep the phone away from your body between calls. Paramount to the precautionary principle is to limit the use of cell phones whenever possible. Make fewer calls and make shorter ones. Choose a cell phone with low-radiation and limit children's cell phone usage, since their brain cells may be more sensitive to the effects of cell phone radiation.

      suggested solutions are that wired headset to be used over bluetooth earpiece, placing the phone on speaker when in a call, keep the phone away form the body in between calls, give childreen cell phone that emitt low-radiation and limit their cell phone usage since their brain cells are more senstitive to the radiation effects at a young age

  • Cell phones and other hand held devices are rapidly becoming a part of our culture. Cell phones are everywhere. They are used by 87 percent of Americans and over 4 billion people worldwide. Students in high school and now even grade school children are using cell phones to talk to each other, and text messaging has become a social norm. We are addicted to cell phones.

      introducing cell phones to younger children can create a risk factor on their health in the future. since they would want to be more so engaged with the cell phone now that they obtain one, the radiation will spill out faster onto them and it may have a greater effect on the body than to an older person
  • New technologies are emerging to shield the electromagnetic radiation (EMR) emitted from cell phones and other electronic devices. Certain chips can be attached to cell phones and earpieces to counteract the EMR, and special paint coated on your walls can limit EMR from adjacent apartments seeping into yours. These shields may help you if you stay behind them. Those who like to roam can wear special headbands, clothing, hats, gloves, and pendants designed to protect the wearer against radiofrequencies and EMR

      cell phone accessories can be used to help prevent the EMR (elecrtomagnetic radiation) from being emitted from the cell phone onto the users body
