In our survey report, my partner, Jihoon Park, and I discussed “Weight issues among teenagers”. Our hypothesis was that if people have problems with their weight, they should do exercise to lose weight so that they could avoid getting diseases. We chose this topic because this topic is really interesting for us because it shows a problem that happens among a large group of people from different ages and races. The phenomenon’s that a large proportion of the people who get obese or anorexia and this causes them a lot of problem in their life. This phenomenon has caused a major crisis for the American people who don’t discuss many opportunities that exist to work on their body.
In " Schools Cut PE Classes for Points Despite Rise in Obesity”, Katherine Donnelly says that the department of education investigators criticized schools for reducing the amount of time that exam students spend in physical education (PE) classes. Moreover, many schools ignored the sport periods and also they sacrifice their time for exam subjects. In addition, the department of education says second level students should spend two hours a week doing PE. Also, there were some students who did not take any PE classes. In addition, some investigators have fears about the growing problem of obesity in Ireland.
I conducted a survey of 25 students (14 males, 11 females) at Southern Illinois University-Carbondale, and my they were 20-31 years old. Also, five of the respondents were from African American; seven of the respondents were Caucasian; 13 were American. In addition, 18 students were single and 7 students were married. We asked 16 questions in the survey report (11 questions were yes-no questions and three were descriptions).
In our questionnaire, we asked the people if they think increasing obesity is a problem in the U.S. We wanted to know if people thought that increasing number of obese people cause of a problem for the American citizens. Finally, we wanted to know if the U.S could decrease the problem of obesity.
In our survey report, Jihoon Park and I found that the successful part of our survey was the power of our initial hypothesis. Also, most of the people interviewed for the survey report answered that they agreed with the hypothesis. Moreover, I did something unusual in my life, which was that I made a big step in my life that I am standing in front of people and held a conversation with someone for the first time I present in my life, It was one of the happiest moments of my life, because I had small conversations with people in a nice way and politely. In short, I have learned in a survey report how to deal with others in a polite and standard conversation. Also, I learned how to ask questions to people in a way that attracted them to respond to the questions in the survey report. I wish that if the students try to speak with native speakers they would learn the mother of the language.

China allowed to invest in Taiwan
LaPedus, M. (2011,Feb,2). China allowed to invest in Taiwan, from,
http://www.eetimes.com/electronics-news/4213697/China-allowed-to-invest-in-Taiwan
Summary:
Over the years, billions of dollars have been invested Taiwan in China. Over the years, China has not been able to invest in Taiwan. Now, china will allow investments into Taiwan by China, including the island's prized chip and LCD sectors, according to the Taiwan Ministry of Economic Affairs. According to the Ministry of Economic Affairs, it will allow China to invest in Taiwan in the following sectors: manufacturing of integrated circuits, and semiconductor packaging, and test C, LCD, and metal cutting machine tools, semiconductor manufacturing machinery, among other areas. There are some restrictions. They Should not exceed the proportion of contributing 10 percent, according to the Ministry of Economic Affairs. It must be land, or capital of less than 50 percent of the total contribution.
Reaction:
There is a relationship between Taiwan investments with China. Moreover, the relationship between Taiwan and China is because of the money and trade, and some of the business and what people need. Obviously I liked the exchange between the two peoples, so they have a relationship in trade and the relationship of outside trade in terms of language and intimate affection between them.

Summary:
According to the article, there are problems in some schools categorize the cause of a sport physical. Moreover, it maybe requested by some customers who are working in the Department that they tour to 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.

Danger Below
Summary:
In “Danger below” Christopher Maag discusses the disasters that happened in 1907 in West Virginia. Also, he mentions that the Monongah explosion killed 362 miners. After these explosions the U.S. Bureau of mines drew attention to developing the workplace safety. Moreover, during the 100 years since, the agency’s found a good solution to make safer miners and to reduce the number of fatalities of those miners. In fact, that led the coal mining fatality rates to decrease pointedly from the horrific levels of the early 20th century. On the other hand, Rick Honaker, the chair of the mining engineering program at the University of Kentucky, says that the policy governing mine safety has become stricter. In fact, the rates of mining death have become less than in the mid nineties, and the records showed there were only 40 fatalities recorded in 2010. Through the history, coal mines have less known as dangerous places to work. In addition, the MSHA gave approximately 175,000 safety violations and the income was 141.2 million from fines in 2009.
Reaction:
Mines are considered dangerous areas for workers, but nowdays there are many people who try to make them safer than in the early 20th century. In fact, the U.S Bureau is doing a good job to provide safety to the laborers. I think this is a great idea because it will decrease the number of deaths of miners. Moreover, I agree that they should punish any company or worker who did not follow the safety policy. In short, that will help our society to provide safer workplaces, which will affect good products.

Nicholson, S. (2011/Feb/08).Obesity prevention plan springing up.
From http://www2.wataugademocrat.com/story/Obesity_prevention_plan_springing_up_id_004711
Summary:
According to the article, a total amount of the money that the author could collect is $1.6 million for the project, which is an obesity preventing plan springing up. The boss of the project and the health side, who is Jennifer, said, the main parameter that leads to disease is disease control. Also, must be approved by the Project on the status of the community. Moreover, since obesity is complicated and she did not know her way, a report of several important efforts in the area and confirmed that the project successful and that they did not expect success or not. They are enthusiastic in working on it and have enough time in which to work. They want to work on the program quickly; three states participate in this program and expect success in it, including a competition-taking place. The program combines three companies or three regions, and these areas for the first time participate in one program. In the past year Health Department received 400 000 dollars to prevent obesity in children, and this happened three years ago. In this year they have been trying to educate teachers and families and the health agents who work with children. These contributions will be used to detect problems that cause obesity in children.
Reaction:
I really like this kind of software because it will attempt to reveal the reasons that cause the disease of obesity. I liked the three members who also compete in the detection of success in this Project, and the whole world could use the benefits of this project; it is very nice to have the ability of avoiding diseases from the human beings. I hope that one day I will have this ability to do the same kind of projects to be a helpful person in this world. However, it will take a lot of time and effort to reach that ability of science and knowledge to create a project like the author’s one. In this article there are many things that attract people in ensuring the health of their bodies and try to control the food that feeds their bodies, and that makes almost all the people in the world eat and drink safely.

Carhacked
Reference:
Glenn, D. (2010,September). Carhacked. From
http://www.popularmecahnics.com/thechno;ogy/gadgets/news/4342408
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.
