News from 22, February, tells that Bill Gates have regulation on his ten years old daughter to use the computer. She was bit addicted to video game "Viva Pinata." The rule is about the time of using computer. The daughter is allowed to use the one for forty-five minutes for a day of a weekdays and one hour for a day of the weekend except for using for assignment.
It is interesting news because the man of the biggest computer company restricts the time of using computer. I guest it means the top pf the computer industry acknowledged the bad points of the computer.
I think the limited time is short for children in the weekend. If a child was playing role playing game, the time won't allow the child to develop the story!!

Introduce 3 good web sites
I would like to introduce three nice websites.
First one is this:
It is called "American Rhetoric: Online Speech Bank"
Using this site, I can improve my speech technique such as how to press or when you repeat the words. Also I can get to know the background of the age or the demand for the people.
The second one is
The name is urban dictionary. The dictionary is good at explaining American slang; however, the meaning of each words are upped by ordinary people. So I can learn the real usage of the words with some examples. Many of them are impossible to hear in the class!! I recommend you to search "Ninja" especially. The definition is really interesting.
Finally, third one is
It is wikipedia as many people know. This is very usual site and hardly I can say it is a good one when you research something. But, it is a good one to get a general idea to the topic and finding more sources. And here is other way of using the site. I like to see a picture in the main page which changes everyday. The pictures often surprise me.

Computer Terms: What Is "Social Engineering"?
Social Engineering is a technique which releases securities through human conducts.
For example, if an information system blocks the third person by checking ID and passwords, in social engineering, people finds out a formal person and pump from he/she. Concretely,
1). pretend a maintenance man of the system, and tell the fake information that is about the broke down of the system. And ask passwords and ID.
2). pretend a both, and ask those information as a task for the business.
3). eavesdrop a conversation of those information.
and so on.
To prevent social engineering, it is needed to educate user of the information system and maintenance man. To build a strict rule for the information releasing in a organization is effective to stop social engineering.

What do you know about the Mac (Apple computers)?
I know little about the Mac and Apple computers. So, I'd like to write about the topic with 100% effort. HAHA
Mac is better than painting or making figures than Windows. However, on the other hand, they are less useful for restoring data or calculating. Therefore, the Mac is preferred by people who deal with design or creating something.
When it comes to my case, I have experienced the better usage of Mac for editing movie cuts and musics. The speed and amount, which was maneged in one time, were faster and greater than the Windows!!
but... there was a difficulty also. It took time for me or many people to learn the differences from the Windows. I could not do what I do usually on the Windows because the way of operating was different.
There are pros and cons for the Mac as I learned in a class. I was especially attracted by the performance for the safety. There have been no virus for the Mac yet. The chance of losing and stealing our privacy is very low!!
