Practising arguments and counter arguments

Today in the first class, Ian gave the exercise gow to write argrument and conter sentencs.
So I chose to rewrite number 5 and 8 at page41.

5) 'University education should be free for all' To what extent do you agree with this statement?

It is widely believed that education is a universal right and that universities should therefore be open to all those who wish to undertake higer education studies. On the other hand, if the country has too many students, so universities cannot get all of students without tehm paying and universities should selected the students who have high enough level to study in.

8) ' The danger of the Internet are greater than the benefits it brings.' To what extent do you agree with this statement?

Although many people say that there are risks involved in using the internet, bit although an internet is useful for students and people who would like to search the acknowlege and finds benefit information, futhermore they can feel comfortable and realx in the same times with internet entertainment such as watching movie and listening radio or music. The user should use an internet in correct way.

Check academic words in Introdection

File produced at level 10

In ancient time, media didn't have a variety kinds of media ,for example television, radio and internet. People could only achieved the news and information from black and white television or listened voice drama and music from radio.
In the recent time medias are becoming influenced for new generations due to all of them can select what kinds of media they want to access. It is widely believed that dangerous behaviour are influenced from the present media. The number of people consider that some program of media both of television and internet are the sample of violent behaviour for the new generations. In 2007, in United State; students in the Virginia Tech university were shot by the gunman in the university, most people and policemen believed that the gunman had influenced from the movies which he had watched.
Whereas in this time medias has affected with people and youths, so the family would like to live in a safety world without influenced by the media, how the government and people can solve the problem in order to we can live in the safety media.

From the result, I know by myself I should more improve in writing and use academic words as much as I can. Some sentences were not clarify and reader didn't understand what did it mean.

Wednesday 6 August 2008

First of all, I needed to improve speaking skill because sometimes my colleagues didn't understand what did I say and I should to speak and give some opinions as much as I can, one of my classmate told me that I should speack much more in the classroom and communicated with another friends during the break. A day before seminar I prepared the information and resources from the newspaper and an internet, it helped me alot because I could reference and gave the accurate details and I though that I gave the clarify example, reasons and support the evidence.
In some sentences I used wrong grammar and arranged some words wrong, so I needed to read and practice more than usual.

CCTV and DNA database case


During this week in the class is talking about the sceiece technology topic, therefore, I would like to give the example of technology science case.

Since May,2007 the big head news on every newspapers were a daughter in McCanns falimly has been disappeared from the resort during their holidays. Until now the dectectives and policemen couldn't find the accurate evidence and criminal even they have been finding the evidence by science technology by CCTV and DNA data base.

First of all the detectives found the evidence by CCTV how the girl was disappeared from the room, had she been murder or kidnapping. After that the police checked DNA from her parents and compared with the evidences. Once a time Kate McCanns was accused that she killed her daughter but the DNA from evidence showns that she was innocent. Then all of detectives and police needed to find a new evidence around the suspect area and people.

Today headline on Metro newspaper has a new deatils about McCans case. From CCTV in Amsterdam, one girl showed on the screen looked like Madeleine McCaan ans also she called her name Maddie. So the police can get a new evidence from CCTV


It indicates that science technology has more useful for police ans detective, some people think that if the government install CCTV around the city even tube station, it will infringe the private life but in the opposit way the government concerns citizens safe life not focus on privacy.

In this case it can shows CCTV is handful for the police can get more evidence to find the pity girl who has been lost from parents.

Feedback in seminar

On Tuesday 5 August, 2008 at Ian class we had a seminar about CCTV and survillance.

We were talking about technology tagging, majority of people agreed that if person who are out on ex-convict, they dont need to put technology tagging because we believe that they are humans to us so the police don't need to put the tagging on criminal. As and alernative, the police can do frequent check up on the progress of he subjects.

CCTV( closed circuit television) in the bbc news said thathome CCTV can reduce the criminal activities. We can conclude that we prefer to have more CCTV placed in England because citizens need more safety in life and in public. Some people don't agree to have more CCTV due to the reason that hey need more private life and don't need somebody to track and look at them all the times. United Kingdom is popular and well known in CCV.

Finger print is accurate to identify criminal activities because such person has a unique finger and footprint. Each person has a different idea in which their importance differ.
5 people agreed that CCTV is the most important because CCTV operates 24 hours. Police can catch the criminal activities through CCTV. The police can also observe suspect situation, they can help and find the solutions immediately.
DNA database is suitable for serious criminal such as kiddnaping or rape criminal.
The police can identify the unique evidence such as hair or skin can proof everything.

Regarding the finger print, all of us decided that finger print is useful for future.
Since 28 April 2008, in UK need the application's finger print because they need to recognise personal detail in order to protect the criminal.

I think that in the future technology will develop and I hope the criminal will decrease and become peaceful as well.

Fighting crime with science seminar


On Friday 1 August,2008

We had a lecture about fight crime with science, we got more knowledge about how to proof the evidences from the murder or the person who done a mistake.
the policemen have a lot of sciences, materials and chemicals to find the evidence.
I’ve got the technical of police to find the evidences

1. DNA stand for Deoxyribonucleic acid, at the present time the police find the evidence department use DNA to find the evidence from the murder.
and it is surely to specific the murder because nobody has the same DNA except twin and parents. They can check from skins, blood and hair.

2. Footprint: are typically used by the prosecution to prove an individual committed a crime, or at least were present at the scene of a crime and could have committed it. Footprints are not as unique as a fingerprint or DNA evidence, but under the right circumstances, they can be enough for a criminal conviction. When the prosecution looks at a footprint as evidence of criminal activity. in the lib, I saw from the video lecture, the chemical use the black paper and then push the brush on the black paper and turn it back, during painting it use the chemical to make the foot mark appear after that wait time about 1 minute so the foot mark will appear on the paper.

3. CCTV (Closed-circuit television)is the use of video cameras to transmit a signal to a specific, limited set of monitors. In London has CCTV more than 4000 for looking around the city even on the road and tube stations. In each day our face are shown on the CCTV about 3000 times per day, it shows that in the city; everywhere has CCTV for look and protect the criminal and also it can identify the murder as well

4. Eyes Scan; it use in the building before enter in, id the eyes are not recognize by the memory, the scanner will reject immediately, I think it is good to protect the stranger and criminal because it can protect at the firs time.
During I was seeing the video lecture, I realized that every process in the lab for finding a evidence is carefully and seriously in order to correctly specific the murder

Giant crocs once swam in Channel
by MILES ERWIN - Thursday, July 31, 2008


If you go for a dip in the Channel these days, the worst thing you face is raw sewage or being hit by a ferry.

But 50million years ago, it was more the threat of giant crocodiles, great white sharks and sea snakes that would have preyed on your mind.
In those times, the area between Paris and London was a tropical lagoon teeming with the most diverse marine life on the planet, say Natural History Museum researchers.

Our shallow waters were more akin to the seas around Indonesia or Thailand today, with their hot and humid weather, too. The only creatures missing would be mammals such as whales and dolphins, which were only just evolving, said the museum's palaeontologist, Dr Jon Todd.

The discovery followed a study, published in the journal Science, of how tropical hotspots move around the planet in line with the shifting of tectonic plates. Sadly, much like any decent weather, the warmth moved on.

The sticky climate changed completely over the next 30million years as the plates moved and built mountains in the Middle East.

European waters were isolated from the warmth of the Indian ocean and the heat moved to the more familiar location of south-east Asia. puzzle, said fellow palaeontologist Dr Ken Johnson.
'They allowed us to map out the changing geographical spread of tropical biodiversity as the hotspot hopped around the world,' he said.

Finally who is the win in Euro 2008













Spain claimed their first major title for 44 years after winning Euro 2008 with a deserved victory over Germany.
Liverpool striker Fernando Torres was Spain's goal hero, striking after 33 minutes when he cleverly lifted Xavi's pass over Germany keeper Jens Lehmann.
Spain dominated the final throughout, with Torres heading against the post and Marcos Senna almost adding a second from close range after 80 minutes.
Michael Ballack came close for Germany, shooting narrowly wide after the break.
606: DEBATE
I'm delighted that the best team, playing the best football in one of the best tournaments ever, wins it
SM
Spain have long had a reputation as under-achievers on the big occasions, but this was a richly-merited victory for veteran coach Luis Aragones and a team that played outstanding football throughout the tournament.
Germany were outclassed, and for captain Ballack his catalogue of misery in major finals continues having lost two Champions League finals and also been suspended for the 2002 World Cup final when they lost to Brazil.
Match-winner Torres enhanced the reputation he forged at Liverpool last season, but this was an all-round effort for a side that is young enough to already be marked down among the favourites for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.
Germany were lifted by Ballack declaring himself fit after a calf injury - but he had little impact on a first 45 minutes in which Spain were the vastly-superior side.
Andres Iniesta almost created the opening goal for Spain in the 13th minute when his driven cross took a deflection off Christoph Metzelder, but Lehmann pulled off a fine reflex save.
And they came even closer nine minutes later when Torres rose to meet Sergio Ramos's cross, but his header bounced to safety off the post.
But he was not to be denied and put Spain ahead with a trademark piece of sharpness in front of goal after 33 minutes.
Xavi's pass created uncertainty for Germany defender Philipp Lahm and Torres shrugged him off the ball to lift a superb finish beyond Lehmann.
Germany's problems threatened to worsen when Ballack needed lengthy treatment for an eye wound after a clash of heads with Marcos Senna.
David Silva then wasted a perfect opportunity to double Spain's advantage when he was set up by Iniesta, but he rushed his finish and shot wildly over the top.
Germany made a change at half-time, sending on Marcell Jansen for Lahm, but it was still Spain who dominated.
Xavi and Silva were both off target - but Germany were sticking to their task and almost grabbed an equaliser when Ballack shot just wide after Carles Puyol had conceded possession in a dangerous area.
Spain continued to look the more threatening side, but there was still the lingering prospect of Germany's refusal to accept defeat yielding an unlikely equaliser.

Casillas lifted the Henri Delaunay trophy for Spain
Silva was fortunate to stay on the pitch when he appeared to motion to head-butt Germany's Lukas Podolski, but Italian referee Roberto Rosetti decided against taking any action.
Ramos should have put the game beyond Germany's reach after 66 minutes when he headed straight at Lehmann from point-blank range as he got on the end of Xavi's free-kick.
Iniesta then had a shot cleared off the line by Torsten Frings and another effort saved by Lehmann as Spain looked in the mood to add a second.
And Germany had a remarkable escape after 80 minutes when substitute Daniel Guiza - on for Torres - headed the ball straight into Senna's path right in front of goal, but he could not apply the final touch.
Spain were not made to pay for their generosity in front of goal and ran out worthy winners.
>>>>This is new update for Spain football fanclubs and I would like to congratulation as well. This evening my friend and I sat in the pub for cheered football Euro 2008 and I'v had update news to share my friends.
