Summary:

According to this article, there are problems in some schools categorize the cause of a sport physical. Moreover, it may be requested by some customers who are working in the Department that they tour schools and examine the conditions that occur there. And they found that there is manipulation in times of sports class. Also, it has been inventoried at the time of classes was organized time to share the sport. Furthermore, It has been suggested that participation in sports class is low. It has been analyzed for some reports that the sport is important for this age of students.

Reaction:

I think if it was organized as a gym and had a specialized teachers in the field of health and sports they would be compatibility between them and students in schools and this they would be the majority of students engaged in sports. Furthermore, if the agenda was organized for students to practice a kind of sport in school, there will be a challenge for all students to overcome their opponents in the second panel. This is due to the lectureship that organizes a schedule of games that stimulate encouraging students to participate.

Carhacked

Summary:


In ''Cracked,'' Glenn Derene talks about a new system that may one day be used on cars. It is called CarShark. The system is run from a laptop placed under the dash of a car and hooked into its ODB II port. This computer has a custom coded application called CarShark. This program can analyze and change the automobile's software. This is similar to a GPS device used in some high risk car loans. The device is connected to the car's electronic brain and if the customer misses a payment, it can turn on the GPS locator, disable the car and sound the horn to make repossession easier. One of the concerns, however, is that if cars are computer controlled it would be easy to hack the system and steal the car.


Reaction:


I believe CarShark can be good thing if it is used right. I think it will help our driving environment to be safer then before. Also, I think this invention will help protect car owners from having their vehicle stolen and will help police the car thieves if they do get stolen. In addition, CarShark will reduce the number of vehicle crimes and accidents because it will stop the person who is trying to run the car. In short, CarShark is a good invention because it can impact our world in a positive way.
