U.S. still in a serious recession.

Before reading this article I found that the United States is still in recession. Eighty six percent of Americans believe that the United States is in recession and that Federal Chairman is being optimistic. I would like to know how the Federal Chairman is being optimistic? What percentage Americans believe that recession has ended?
After reading the article I found that the percentages of the poll vary a lot. That from the CNN/Opinion Research corporation survey, thirteen percent said that economy recession has ended, fourty two percent said is in a very serious matter, thirty five percent say its moderate and one in ten said its mild. Americans think that Federal Chairman, Ben Bernanke, is being optimistic about the situation because he mentioned that " the recession is very likely over." I also found out how for some families finacially they are struggling and others are the same. In my opinion depending on what economic status you are in you will see the recession affecting in a very different way. Lets just not hope we get another " Great Depression."

Doctors Warn Texters

Before reading this texting article what I know is that texting while on the move can be dangerous. You can get very distracted while texting and be in danger. People are ignoring the risks of texting on the move. I also know that doctors are also making mistakes of testing on the move. What I would like to learn from this article is that how is it that doctors are also making mistakes?
After reading this texting article I learned that many texters try to do many things at once. Also that people text while walking, biking or even driving. Whats dangerous about this is that people get distracted and do not know where they are going or who they are bumping to. People have lost their lifes because of texting. Many people are ignoring the risks of texting on the move and even though they have walked into a post or wall they still maintain the habit of walking and texting at the same time.

My Personal Advice

Before I even graduated from High School I will hear that “you get to do whatever you want." Though no none mentions the academic part of college. Some of my personal advices will be to become very social, join school activities and most important make choices that you are confident about. Being social brings you to meet new people and with that join more in school events. Joining school activities like clubs or soerity's, which join you to fun and safe school events. I agree on the advice that Srijaya Reddy said "When scheduling classes, pick the professor, not the time of day. The person teaching can make all the difference." Another advice will be to take much responsibility and to be careful of underage drinking and becoming it a habit which it can affect academically, physically and socially.
