The evolution of the media has been fraught with concerns and problems. Accusations of mind control, bias, and poor quality have been thrown at the media on a regular basis. Yet the growth of communications technology allows people today to find more information more easily than any previous generation. Mass media can be print, radio, television, or Internet news. They can be local, national, or international. They can be broad or limited in their focus. The choices are tremendous.
MEDIA EVOLUTION
For centuries civilizations have used print media to spread news and information to the masses. During this period printing was the dominant information transfer medium, and for much of that time was unchallenged and so also further development of the technology was slow. Mechanical power was applied to the printing press in the 19th century and the mechanical systems entirely displaced typesetting by hand. In the 20th century, dramatic developments have taken place in mass media. The mechanical system was replaced by the electronic type-setting and in the contemporary period the most advanced the digital typesetting.
By the middle of the 19th century, newspapers became the primary means of disseminating and receiving information. The invention of the telegraph in 1844 transformed print media. The new technology enabled the transformation of information within a matter of minutes, allowing more timely, relevant reporting. During this period newspapers were appearing in societies around the world. Broadcast radio exploded onto the media scene in the 1920s.
EVOLUTION OF MEDIA
The evolution of media, from old media to new media, has transformed the way we understand the world around us. New media is interactive and is user-generated while old media is a more traditional way of communicating through television, radio, newspapers, magazines, books, etc. New media gives us a new perspective by allowing us to interact with one another through the Internet. Media has become much more personal and diverse as user-generated content becomes more prominent in our lives. We are exposed to various viewpoints that shape our understanding and knowledge of the social world, but does the form of media actually affect the way we understand the content which is presented to us? For my paper, I will determine whether or not the medium is the message by analyzing two different types of media sources and how they affect our understanding of the content. For my old media source, I have chosen a news clip from the CBS Evening News with Katie Couric that deals with the ongoing Egyptian uprising. For my new media source, I have chosen a video blog, or ‘vlog’, by an Egyptian man named Omar who discusses the crisis in Egypt from a personal point of view. Both media sources deal with the same topic but result in different understandings of the crisis. Although both mediums focus on the same issue there are a lot of differences between the two.
Media fulfills several basic roles in our society. One obvious role is entertainment. Media can act as a springboard for our imaginations, a source of fantasy, and an outlet for escapism. In the 19th century, Victorian readers disillusioned by the grimness of the Industrial Revolution found themselves drawn into fantastic worlds of fairies and other fictitious beings. In the first decade of the 21st century, American television viewers could peek in on a conflicted Texas high school football team in Friday Night Lights; the violence-plagued drug trade in Baltimore in The Wire; a 1960s-Manhattan ad agency in Mad Men; or the last surviving band of humans in a distant, miserable future in Battlestar Galactica. Through bringing us stories of all kinds, media has the power to take us away from ourselves.
The media can also provide information and education. Information can come in many forms, and it may sometimes be difficult to separate from entertainment. Today, newspapers and news-oriented television and radio programs make available stories from across the globe, allowing readers or viewers in London to access voices and videos from Baghdad, Tokyo, or Buenos Aires. Books and magazines provide a more in-depth look at a wide range of subjects. The free online encyclopedia Wikipedia has articles on topics from presidential nicknames to child prodigies to tongue twisters in various languages. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has posted free lecture notes, exams, and audio and video recordings of classes on its OpenCourseWare website, allowing anyone with an Internet connection access to world-class professors.
Another useful aspect of media is its ability to act as a public forum for the discussion of important issues. In newspapers or other periodicals, letters to the editor allow readers to respond to journalists or to voice their opinions on the issues of the day. These letters were an important part of U.S. newspapers even when the nation was a British colony, and they have served as a means of public discourse ever since. The Internet is a fundamentally democratic medium that allows everyone who can get online the ability to express their opinions through, for example, blogging or podcasting—though whether anyone will hear is another question.
Beware
Rape is a type of sexual assault usually involving sexual intercourse or other forms of sexual penetration carried out against a person without that person’s consent. The act may be carried out by physical force, coercion, abuse of authority, or against a person who is incapable of giving valid consent, such as one who is unconscious, incapacitated, has an intellectual disability or is below the legal age of consent.[1][2][3] The term rape is sometimes used interchangeably with the termsexual assault.
The rate of reporting, prosecuting and convicting for rape varies between jurisdictions. Internationally, the incidence of rapes recorded by the police during 2008 ranged, per 100,000 people, from 0.2 in Azerbaijan to 92.9 in Botswana with 6.3 in Lithuania as the median.[5] Worldwide, rape is primarily committed by males.[6] Rape by strangers is usually less common than rape by people the victim knows, and male-on-male and female-on-female prison rapes are common and may be the least reported forms of rape.
Widespread and systematic rape (e.g., war rape) and sexual slavery can occur during international conflict. These practices are crimes against humanity and war crimes. Rape is also recognized as an element of the crime of genocide when committed with the intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a targeted ethnic group.
People who have been raped can be traumatized and develop posttraumatic stress disorder.[10] Serious injuries can result along with the risk of pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections. A person may face violence or threats from the rapist, and, in some cultures, from the victim’s family and relatives.

Gamers be warned!
Over the past few years online games has been usual to us teenagers. Many are already addicted to it already, and to be honest I myself is addicted too. Though it has been already part of our daily habit, many still lack the knowledge about the effects gaming addiction does. So as one of this individuals, I decided to study about it and figure out the common reasons why we’ve been addicted.
Now I learned that the main reason why individuals get attached to this stuff is because they’re playing with another individual. “Gamers tend to compete” with one another, showing off which one is more better at the field of playing. Also with another player, they can feel the tension rising in the air because they are against an opponent which is capable of thinking. Another good reason is because “they can’t pause the game”. All online games probably, if a player interacts with another player the game cannot be stop anymore. This is the most probable reason why you can’t disturb gamers. Last on my list is because of “proving something”, many individuals play a game out of loneliness in which case make them weary to continue to play when socialization in person occurs. Others tend to stick to the game because of a goal, for an example an achievement in the game, trying to beat someone and proving they’re good. Many reasons are still out their but I guess this is the most precise.
I am also a gamer, I was addicted to it before, but I changed at the time a realize that it was slowly effecting my life. Though gaming can make us avoid life problems it doesn’t mean it can fix it. So as for now, I encourage you not to play.

Discrimination
Discrimination is one of the common issue on our generation. Keeping or making distinction towards others according to their sex, gender identity, body shape, race, age, record, status, nationality, disability, religion, genetic characteristics, ethnicity or telling between right or wrong. It also feels like you are worse you think you are and some can also lead to depression, suicidal and other mental disorders that may cause you to be suicidal.
Discrimination has long been a fascinating and frustrating subject for social science. Fascinating because it is a powerful mechanism underlying many historical and contemporary patterns of inequality; frustrating because it is elusive and difficult to measure. Over a century of social science interest in the question of discrimination has resulted in numerous techniques aimed to isolate and identify its presence, and to document its effects. Below I consider some of the dominant methods used to study discrimination, examining their primary contributions as well as their possible limitations. In thinking about each of these methods, the primary question we seek to answer is: How do we really know when or where discrimination is at work?
To some, discrimination is as easy to spot as a train wreck in daylight. We notice subtle cues in the ways others are treated around us, or in the ways we ourselves are treated. The curt exchange with the shop clerk, the security guard who keeps a watchful eye, the cab driver who doesn’t stop. Whether due to age, gender, race, disability, sexual orientation, or any other stigmatized identity, most of us can think of at least one instance in which we, or someone close to us, was treated unfairly on the basis of a single status distinction. In these instances, it doesn’t take a social scientist to certify the case as discrimination.
wowww

ABORTION: A dead Baby and a Dead Conscience
Doing a thing that you love has always an equal responsibility. You did it so why chose to avoid it? Are you just making it out of fun? Do you think that it is a good thing? Everytime we think of doing some things,m we must think first. Is it okay? Can I handle the responsibility if ever the things that I do will have a fruit? Think before you do it. Is it the kindest thing to do? I must say, abortion is never a choice.
When you do abortion, it is not only the baby who is dead but also your conscience. Don’t you feel guilty and pity against YOUR child? What kind of mother are you? It is from your own flesh and blood. Some must say that fetuses don’t have a life but can imagine, we adults and even infantdms have a heartbeat same as the fetuses, so how can you say that they don’t have lives inside your womb? Our heartbeat is the basis of our life. I it does not work already then it only means one thing, we are dead and same also as the fetuses. How can you sleep tight at night when you killed your baby? Isn’t your conscience hunting you? Or Can you even sleep at night? Abortion must not be a choice. Babies is innocent from you thing. You did it, you must face your responsibilities. In the first place, why kill the babies? They don’t even know what you are doing. It is not their fault if your such an irresponsible person. If you want to save your dignity and image to others, you should protect it and you must not do anything to harm it. It is not the baby who destroy it but YOU.
Moreover, to save your conscience and dignity, behave. Educate yourself about the consequences of what would you always do. Remember, it is not the baby’s choice to live in this world, it is yours.

Respect,Reflect ,STOP Bullying !!
Bullying is when someone is being hurt emotionally or physically, on purpose. Bullying makes someone feel so small . Being judged and criticized in front of lots of people , it makes you feel so small and useless. Respect one another because each one of us created by God equally . Respect for we are just human beings with the heart to feel happiness and sadness. Being victim of bullying is a nightmare . Honestly, personally I experienced being bullied because of my skin color and my appearance. It hurts my feelings . I am just a human who can feel downfall. The words that I heard and read is like a knife which gives my heart pain. It's always in my mind and I am in point questioning myself “Do I deserve all of this? ” , “ Why ? ” . It is very tiring to question yourself with the things you can't understand.
Reflect , try to reflect your self to those people whom you bullied. Try to imagined yourself being in their situation. What would you feel? After putting yourself on it , question yourself is it nice to be in their place ? As of now , we can witness from our environment the outcome of bullying . From bullying which leads to stress, depression and to death. Hanging their selves , killing their selves and taking their own lives. Bullying may take emotionally from hurtful words and may take physically from bullies who liked to hurt physically. This is not a good practice for individuals it may lead to low self esteem , communication skill disorder and being introverted. Take this things seriously , it is not all about fun but it's about life and reality.
There are lots of feedback from victims about the impact of bullying in their lives. The government created a Republic Act 10627, the anti-bullying law passed in 2013, is “an act requiring all elementary and secondary schools to adopt policies to prevent and address the acts of bullying in their institutions.” RA 10627 prohibits not only “unwanted physical contact” between the bully and the victim but also cyber bulling and any act “that causes damage to a victim’s psyche and/or emotional well-being.”This act really helps individuals to have their rights to complain and claim their rights from this experiences. You should stop bullying for it is prohibited by the law of people and in law of God. Let's start living in a world with peace . A world with no judgement and full of love.

ROTC
Here in our country, ROTC is also one of the issues and controversials in the philippines. Some said that ROTC is a big threat to each students that are not ready for the training so in short the parents or relatives are not in the side of ROTC because they consider it as ‘danger’.
But some also said; that ROTC also has many benefits in life like, it can make your body fit and healthy and also you can learn your own self-defense if there is trouble. Some people are also curious why ROTC here in our country is banned. Thta is why some are trying to raise the falg so that ROTC will be lethal in every school departments.
But for me, ROTC is fine because of this, we can learn to protect our selves and make our body more healthier, so in short ROTC is fine with me
( BULLYING )
Bullying occurs in different ways and for different reasons........others bullies might be popular but thoughtless.
Middle school can be tough: switching classes, learning locker combinations, more challenging coursework. It’s also where the most bullying begins. According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, about 49 percent of children in grades four to 12 reported being bullied by other students at least once a month, and 31 percent of children reported being the ones who bullied.
BULLYING IS A DISTINCTIVE PATTERN OF HARMING AND HUMILIATING OTHERS ,SPECIFICALLY THOSE WHO ARE IN SOME WAY SMALLER.IT IS A FORCE COERCION OR THREAT TO ABUSE, AGGRESSIVELY DOMINATE OR INTIMIDATE.
Discrimination
Discrimination is the act of distinguishing or the act of treating unequally, in other words, it is the making of distinction towards a person based on the group, class, or category to which the person is perceived to belong.This only occurs when a person is referred as different from the other people that is interacting in his environment.
This only occurs when a person has this difference to the other person. The people have the reasons that make them motivate by themselves to descriminate others because of the physical appearance, religion,gender,ethnicity,status and etc. Those people don't know the word "respect" in others, they don't know the story of every person that they have discriminated, they dont know the word "treat equally". They easily see the difference of a person but they dont see their difference to the other person. One of the common reason of why people are discriminated is because they are weak, they dont know how to defend themselves, they dont know how to fight back for their rights. The more a person that make the other person feel that they are weak, the more people will aggressively discriminate you.
Because of this issue, they have taken up at the first session of the General Assembly in 1946 to conduct meeting to lessen the discrimination and inequality that is happening in the society, it is the Commision of Human Rights.The Commission on Human Rights was made up of 18 members from various political, cultural and religious backgrounds.The Universal Declaration of Human Rights is a historic document which outlined the rights and freedoms everyone is entitled to. It was the first international agreement on the basic principles of human rights. Aside from relying in this right, is you should have ways to avoid discrimination, first is you should make them feel that you are not weak and you should fight back and if someone dare to judge you, then the Universal Declaration of Human Rights is the key
#StopDiscrimination
THE TRUTH
ABORTION: is a guilt of human labor.
Abortion is a highly controversial issue that is affecting our society. People feel that abortion is evil because it is killing an unborn child. On the other hand, people believe it is a woman's constitutional right to choose, but if one were to end an innocent child's life is not only unethical and inhumane, but it is also morally wrong.
That abortion is the killing of a human being, which defies the word of God, spoken from the Bible. In where the Bible states that “Thou shalt not kill,” in Exodus 20:13. In all countries around the world and among peoples, a natural instinct or an unwritten tradition placed murder among the worst crimes, and made its penalty death. According to the Bible, there is no fine line or conclusion drawn between a fetus or a baby. Women are murdering their developed children and lying to themselves while doing it so that they feel better about it. The truth is, there is no way around it. They cannot make the fact that they are inhumanely killing an innocent child just go away. Each abortion deprives an innocent baby of a full life. Think about this, each person who supported slavery was never a slave… and every person who is for abortion wasn't murdered and got to live.
Our world today is full of unsolved, decisive and controversial issues. Most of them relate to our morals, ethics, and religion, thus creating a very strong yes’ or no’, or good’ and bad’ side. Therefore to any person who is for abortion or is contemplating having one of her own, think about this, everyone who is alive got the chance to live and experience wonderful things.
wow nice info.
How to Deal with Mental Breakdown?
Mental breakdown should not be taken lightly. This crisis occurs when an individual is no longer able to handle the stress or pressure. During this time a person will no longer be able to function normally and will endure amounts of anxiety and stress.
The mental illness can bring someone to stop no maintaining their social relationships with others, but this mental illness is also needing someone’s guide and support. To be able to surpass this type of illness we need to have someone by our side to help us regain our energy and power. Nervous breakdowns manifest differently for different people, different problems and encounters.
A mental breakdown is not a condition to be afraid of, as it is simply an indication of overwhelming stress and mental illness in a person’s life. Loved ones and friends of someone who is suffering from a nervous breakdown should be supportive of the individual’s efforts in seeking help for it.
