Breakout Results

I think Breakout Results is really bad. It should a very long time to log in to the home page from the opening. I think it really waste time. And I really can't understand want is it connected to the sun.
I think Trader Joe's is not that bad.
IEEE 802.11 is a set of standards for implementing wireless local area network (WLAN) computer communication in the 2.4, 3.6 and 5 GHz frequency bands.
Your wireless network name,SSID. SSID identifies your network, and it appears in a list of available wireless networks. You should change the default SSID that your ISP provided and give your network a unique name that none of your neighbors are using. This helps you identify your network, and it can help keep your wireless network secure by preventing it from overlapping with other wireless networks that might be using the default SSID.
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA or WPA2), which can help protect your wireless network. It’s important to help secure your wireless network by setting up a network security key, which turns on encryption. With encryption, people can't connect to your network without the security key, and all information sent across your network is encrypted so that only computers with the key to decrypt the information can read it. This can help prevent attempts to access your network and files without your permission.
Wireless encryption (WEP) is not as secure. Windows 7, Windows Vista Service Pack 2, and Windows XP Service Pack 3, AirPort Express support WPA2.
When you set up most routers (stand-alone routers and modem routers), you are asked to provide a pass phrase that the router uses to generate several keys.Some routers and modem routers now come with a function called Quick Security Setup (or QSS) that automatically issues you a key when you press a button on the router.
Be sure to keep a hard copy and a digital copy of your network security key and pass phrase. You can recover a lost network key or reset it on your router, but these sometimes entail setting up your network again.
 
Your administrative password, which controls your wireless network.

Ray Kurzweil stated that "bots" will be able to control and adjust parts of our brains to think and do things that we have not done before. for example: Perhaps repairing some brain functionality that controls our ability to remember.  Alowing humans to experience more than before. What are some of the things that we will be able to do?  Be specific using research as your guide.

Do you think that computers will replace jobs that we do today? Have computers replaced jobs once done by people?  What specific jobs do you think will be replaced by computers? Do you think that morally this is wrong?  Provide good arguments for your position.  Provide good examples and resources to support your argument. Place this information on your blog.

What will happen to people that have been replaced by computers on the job? What will they need to do to be employable?



I think robots will replace jobs that we do today in future. It can also do some jobs that people are unable to do. I think people's jobs will be try to control these robots. However, I don't think robots can really surpass human in the nearly future. So, people can also try to create new technology. I think that morally this is not wrong. It's only a machine. That's why I think it can't surpass human. We don't need to make it with emotion. If it has emotion, it may be wrong, and the robot should have the same treatment with human. So, it can't have feeling, so it can't surpass human.

Flexible Displays

It's a new kind of display. I really like it, because i think it will be very convinent and useful. For example, you don't need to use so much space for your computer, though it is already very small. You can bring a very big display outside, and share with your friends. you can watch movies or tv shows with your friends who sit opposite with you. it will be very funny.
