And people get bored with this life they need adventures and they need something new to happen in their lives. They of need it because they know that there is another life and people have exciting lives with a number of events and this is the way people are thirsty for. And they learn about these exciting lives from their TV-sets, they see it on the screen and they think they also can have a life like this, well, at least they want to have life like this. I guess it is the negative influence of television to people and this is the main drawback of it. People should know that life they see on the screen has nothing to do with the real life and it is just show to make people watch TV and to make them interested at it. Though, numbers of people leave everything and they are chasing the life from the screen and they are hurt in this race. They are hurt because they are never ready for the danger of this world.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1157492539566539530-1303031280507129839?l=myhappyblog-johns.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1157492539566539530/posts/default/1303031280507129839'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1157492539566539530/posts/default/1303031280507129839'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://myhappyblog-johns.blogspot.com/2010/01/following-life-on-screen.html' title='Following life on the screen'/><author><name>John</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13618779299458743225</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1157492539566539530.post-4015554102355849445</id><published>2010-01-13T07:10:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2010-01-13T07:10:48.350-08:00</updated><title type='text'>TV and switching</title><content type='html'>People say they like watching TV and in most cases if you ask one about what he or she is doing in the evening one will say “watching TV”, though it is not quite right. Most people never watch TV and they are just switching channels. They never know what they want to see and they only need something to waste time, which is why they switch in their TV-set. Television is the best and the cheapest kind of entertainment, and people never have to leave their homes for it. Though, indeed they never watch TV but they are switching channels. See, if one is watching a movie and there is an ad break than one looks for another channel without ad trailers and variety of channels makes one stick in switching. He or she usually forgets about that movie and start watching some other show or movie bit the same happens to this new matter of interest. Switching is like a disease and people can’t stop it. Psychologists even say that this activity may be recognized as a form of modern addiction. People need that switching more than they need TV and shows and movies and so on.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1157492539566539530-4015554102355849445?l=myhappyblog-johns.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1157492539566539530/posts/default/4015554102355849445'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1157492539566539530/posts/default/4015554102355849445'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://myhappyblog-johns.blogspot.com/2010/01/tv-and-switching.html' title='TV and switching'/><author><name>John</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13618779299458743225</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1157492539566539530.post-746193270629272575</id><published>2010-01-10T02:29:00.002-08:00</published><updated>2010-01-10T02:30:05.623-08:00</updated><title type='text'>TV instead of people</title><content type='html'>I don’t really like watching TV but I have TV-set at home and in most cases it is on.

You may wonder why I need my TV-set on in case I’m not going to watch it and I have answer for you. I need TV-set instead of people. See, when home alone silence seems too loud and there should be something to light this silence and I use my TV-set as thing that lightens silence around me. I have TV-set instead of people because it never stops talking and there is always something on. TV-set never stops talking and saves me from silence and at the same time TV-set never expects me to answer it and talk to it in response and so on and so forth. I never watch TV, well I rare watch TV but I listen to it all the same and that is why I need television. People are talking and they need you to listen to them and answer them something, but there are times when you don’t feel like talking and listening and so on and TV-set will never take it as an offence.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1157492539566539530-746193270629272575?l=myhappyblog-johns.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1157492539566539530/posts/default/746193270629272575'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1157492539566539530/posts/default/746193270629272575'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://myhappyblog-johns.blogspot.com/2010/01/tv-instead-of-people.html' title='TV instead of people'/><author><name>John</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13618779299458743225</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1157492539566539530.post-5366686209095538766</id><published>2010-01-10T02:29:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2010-01-10T02:29:38.691-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Switch the channel</title><content type='html'>It is the television we have today in order not to get bored with the long nights at home. It is the television we have today in order to find out everything about the latest and the mist important events of the world and it is the television that makes us stay at home instead of having fun together with our friends someplace else. There is no such a person in the world who would know nothing about television and there is no such a person who can frankly say he or she never watches the TV. Today you can choose any channel you like and find the film or program there you wanted.  That is the TV today, you can hear the news from all over the world and you can hear it from different sources of information and make your own mind about the fact or event. And that switching of channel is actually recognized as a disease, so you should be careful. Television is good but there are a lot of things in this world that are twice better than it, so switch the channels and receive the information you need but do not get possessed with it.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1157492539566539530-5366686209095538766?l=myhappyblog-johns.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1157492539566539530/posts/default/5366686209095538766'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1157492539566539530/posts/default/5366686209095538766'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://myhappyblog-johns.blogspot.com/2010/01/switch-channel.html' title='Switch the channel'/><author><name>John</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13618779299458743225</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1157492539566539530.post-5751861809003599572</id><published>2009-04-14T01:44:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-04-14T01:45:37.319-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Cure for loneliness</title><content type='html'>When loneliness creeps up and rears its ugly head you can either decide to hang with it or you can decide that you would like to beat it. Most people would prefer to beat loneliness but have no idea how. It’s not that hard if you have a phone, a few bucks, or a destination. Sometimes our friends are far away. We move. We start over. We get divorced, and loneliness floods us because we are more than merely alone. Just because the circumstances of your loneliness are not perfect, this doesn’t mean that you can’t beat it rather than hang with it.&lt;br /&gt;Some people use the internet as a cure for loneliness. I don’t think this is the most effective cure for loneliness as this can lead to much more heart break than it solves. But there are times when the only connection you have to the outside world late at night is through technology. What matters is that you reach beyond the loneliness and that you enable yourself to become a competent social person once again. We all have periods of loneliness and some of them are absolutely heart wrenching. But we all have a choice when the chips are down. We can either get up and start moving or we can stay where we are. When you are grappling with loneliness, which option is more likely to release you from your current dilemma?  Most of us have a way out of our loneliness even if it is only for a short time. Those reprieves can mean more than finding a new partner when you are in the boughs of loniliness.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1157492539566539530-5751861809003599572?l=myhappyblog-johns.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1157492539566539530/posts/default/5751861809003599572'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1157492539566539530/posts/default/5751861809003599572'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://myhappyblog-johns.blogspot.com/2009/04/cure-for-loneliness.html' title='Cure for loneliness'/><author><name>John</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13618779299458743225</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1157492539566539530.post-1969931849510060143</id><published>2009-04-10T08:21:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-04-10T08:23:04.938-07:00</updated><title type='text'>We have no time</title><content type='html'>Everyday we have no time to cook or no place to cook but we are hungry and we move to the nearest cafe or McDonald’s. There we can buy almost everything we want and we try to do it as quickly as possible. We eat quickly and move to our jobs, universities etc. Fast food restaurants help us to save our time, but do they help to save our health? Many people consider this question to be childish and silly, but there is still a food for thought.&lt;br /&gt;It is not a secret that there is a great amount of calories in fast food. But there is also a trans fat in fast food. Trans fat is a common name for a type of unsaturated fat with trans-isomer fatty acid. Trans fats which are commonly found in fast food have been shown in many tests to have a negative health effect on the body. A 2006 study fed monkeys a diet consisting of a similar level of trans fats a person who ate fast food regularly would consume. Both diets contained the same overall number of calories. It was found out that monkeys who consumed higher level of trans fat developed more abdominal fat than those fed a diet rich in unsaturated fats. They also developed signs of insulin resistance, which is an early indicator of diabetes. After six years on the diet, the trans fat fed monkeys had gained 7.2% of their body weight, compared to just 1.8% in the unsaturated fat group.&lt;br /&gt;To sum up we would like to add that people should think what they eat.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1157492539566539530-1969931849510060143?l=myhappyblog-johns.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1157492539566539530/posts/default/1969931849510060143'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1157492539566539530/posts/default/1969931849510060143'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://myhappyblog-johns.blogspot.com/2009/04/we-have-no-time.html' title='We have no time'/><author><name>John</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13618779299458743225</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1157492539566539530.post-1735977349330185141</id><published>2009-04-08T07:34:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-04-08T07:36:37.149-07:00</updated><title type='text'>What is TV for you?</title><content type='html'>Television is one of the most used words in contemporary language. However, it's not a very old thing. It's a way of delivering information, a mass-media tool. It's the second place after the Internet to know news quickly and the weather, to listen to the experts' comments on political situation, to watch an interesting or a useful films (they are rare to be both at once), to see the wild life or some countries you will have never been to. It creates dreams, it makes you think like other people, dream of and buy the things they want you to dream of and buy. So, there are many opinions about the television.&lt;br /&gt;Nearly everyone nowadays has a TV-set in his house, but does he watch it? Elderly people, usually pensioners who have a lot of free time; they watch TV for some hours a day. They most enjoy the soap operas, and some specialists even call it a sort of narcotics. Adults who still work watch not much, but they relax watching films. And the young people, that some years ago were constantly watching TV, now gave it up for another greatest tool of entertainment - the Internet.&lt;br /&gt;And what is TV for you?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1157492539566539530-1735977349330185141?l=myhappyblog-johns.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1157492539566539530/posts/default/1735977349330185141'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1157492539566539530/posts/default/1735977349330185141'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://myhappyblog-johns.blogspot.com/2009/04/what-is-tv-for-you.html' title='What is TV for you?'/><author><name>John</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13618779299458743225</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1157492539566539530.post-274857733639653739</id><published>2009-02-27T00:46:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-03-02T04:14:29.698-08:00</updated><title type='text'>TV</title><content type='html'>TV was invented at the beginning of the 20th century. A system of coloured television of electronic type was developed in the 50s in the USA, Russia and then in other countries. &lt;br /&gt; Nowadays TV plays an important role in people’s life. Usually people watch TV to learn the latest interesting world news. Television is very popular among the young persons.&lt;br /&gt; There are many interesting and popular television programmes on TV. For example, programmes devoted to the social problems. It can be very useful to watch such programmes, because different problems and different points of view are described there. Television programmes about animals are very popular too. Teenagers like the reality shows very much. People acting in this kind of shows are usually also young. That’s why reality shows are usually popular among young adults.  &lt;br /&gt; Despite the fact that watching TV is very interesting, some scientists believe that it can be harmful. They consider TV to be very violent and cruel for children psychology. And they believe that instead of communicating each other, the whole family sits glued to the TV-set.&lt;br /&gt; Nevertheless millions of people are watching TV every day. They watch it to be well informed and sometimes just to relax.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1157492539566539530-274857733639653739?l=myhappyblog-johns.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1157492539566539530/posts/default/274857733639653739'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1157492539566539530/posts/default/274857733639653739'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://myhappyblog-johns.blogspot.com/2009/02/tv.html' title='TV'/><author><name>John</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13618779299458743225</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1157492539566539530.post-6422406902340287989</id><published>2008-12-26T01:11:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-26T01:12:32.270-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='people'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='news'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='manipulation'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='conclusions'/><title type='text'>TV and manipulation</title><content type='html'>It is very sad to write this message, but everything written here is true. Most people spend their leisure time at home before the TV screen. Our authorities know it very well. That is why they consider television to be the most powerful instrument for propaganda. They manipulate social views and tell us how we should live our lives. Mature and smart people understand it very well, they don’t watch TV, as they know that there is nothing interesting for them. TV can be interesting for several categories of citizens. The first category consists of housewives, pensioners and their supporters. They are absolutely narrow-minded people, they are ready to watch anything they are offered. They sympathize with stupid main heroes of their favorite soap operas. They believe all news they hear in information programs. The second category consists of pseudo-clever and mature people. These people pretend to be clever, they watch various political shows, analytics and other staff of this kind. They think over these programs, analyze information and make conclusions. However, they are not clever enough to understand that this entire staff is false. These programs are meant for manipulation of social consciousness. The real state of affairs remains behind the news we hear and only really clever people can understand this real state of affairs, deeply analyzing everything they hear. In order to analyze this material and make right conclusions, a person must have profound knowledge of various disciplines. Dilettantism is irrelevant here!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1157492539566539530-6422406902340287989?l=myhappyblog-johns.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1157492539566539530/posts/default/6422406902340287989'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1157492539566539530/posts/default/6422406902340287989'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://myhappyblog-johns.blogspot.com/2008/12/tv-and-manipulation.html' title='TV and manipulation'/><author><name>John</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13618779299458743225</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1157492539566539530.post-1258373899926941683</id><published>2008-12-03T04:11:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-03T04:12:11.745-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='films'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='satellite'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='pograms'/><title type='text'>Satellite TV</title><content type='html'>Satellite television is a very good way to entertain yourself when you are at home and don’t know what to do. You can switch over thousands of channels and find something to your taste. There is no need to enumerate these channels and their subject areas, as there is no room in this article to mention all of them. It is enough to say that there are channels which cover almost all possible topics. Among them there are channels, devoted to fishing, sport, cinema, news, documentaries, history, geography, economy, nature, etc. If you are fond of one of these topics there can be two variants for you: either you will watch this or that channel all the time, as each next program is more interesting than the previous one or you may not watch TV at all, as you will understand that it become a sort of addiction. Addiction in turn can be treated only by means of complete rejection. Satellite TV gives you a splendid opportunity to forget about your problems and troubles and plunge into the world of interesting and amusing events, innovations and discoveries. Documentaries, films and programs, which are shown via satellite channels are not demonstrated on municipal TV, as these channels are meant for an average low-brow citizen, who is not interested in specific topics, such as historical events, investigations, geography and wild life. They mostly prefer soap operas, low-brow TV shows, where instead of ordinary people, actors participate and thus deceive those, who watch them. Of course, satellite channels are intended for housewives and workers. Every man to his taste.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1157492539566539530-1258373899926941683?l=myhappyblog-johns.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1157492539566539530/posts/default/1258373899926941683'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1157492539566539530/posts/default/1258373899926941683'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://myhappyblog-johns.blogspot.com/2008/12/satellite-tv.html' title='Satellite TV'/><author><name>John</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13618779299458743225</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1157492539566539530.post-8499121530919010626</id><published>2008-12-03T04:09:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-03T04:11:02.667-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='channels'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='history'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='TV'/><title type='text'>Specialized channels</title><content type='html'>I hate free TV channels for the mass audience, as they are uninteresting and boring. Besides, they are full of irritating advertisement. I never watch them. I prefer to watch specialized cable TV channels. They are very useful and informative. I think that they can even replace books. They are very useful for many reasons. The importance of specialized channels can scarcely be overestimated. They are especially useful for children. I’ll try to explain you why. For example, what is better for a child: to read a lot of books about knights and try to imagine their look and appearance, or to see the reconstructed image of a knight on the TV screen? I think that it is much better to see him with your own eyes. Seeing is believing. &lt;br /&gt;There is one more reason why specialized channels are useful for children and teenagers. It is not a secret that young people don’t like reading books. It’s a pity because they lose much in this life. They are very often ignorant of history, geography and so on. Fortunately, today they can make up for the lack of knowledge with watching these channels. Besides, there are a lot of people, who are very busy with their household tasks and have no time to sit on a sofa and watch TV. However, they can, for example, wash the plates and listen to the program, looking at the screen at times. Thus they can combine business with pleasure. I am fond of specialized channels too. When I watch them I can’t tear myself away from the TV screen.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1157492539566539530-8499121530919010626?l=myhappyblog-johns.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1157492539566539530/posts/default/8499121530919010626'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1157492539566539530/posts/default/8499121530919010626'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://myhappyblog-johns.blogspot.com/2008/12/specialized-channels.html' title='Specialized channels'/><author><name>John</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13618779299458743225</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1157492539566539530.post-7311226198524990621</id><published>2008-12-03T04:05:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-03T04:07:44.812-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='irritating'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='channels'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='television'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='shows'/><title type='text'>Modern Television</title><content type='html'>I have found out that I hate modern television. Here I mean, of course, free channels for mass audience. As for specialized channels, for example history, educational, music channels, they are very interesting and when you start watching them, you often can’t turn off your TV-set, because each next program seems more interesting than previous ones. Quite a different impression produce popular channels for mass audience. They are full of irritating and annoying advertisement, which repeats several times a day or even several times during one program. Besides, it is very long and when it ends, you don’t remember what you are watching. This leads to constant switching over channels. It turns out that you manage to watch several TV shows at the same time and as a result there is such confusion that you may have headache or other disturbances. TV men complain that they lack money as their television is free and that is why they are forced to show advertisement very often. However, I think that causes and effects have changed their places. I mean that it is not advertisement that exists for moneyed assistance of TV channels. On the contrary, TV shows and programs exist to dilute advertisement with something, which is not so disgusting for people. Experience shows that advertising channels are not successful, because nobody is ready to watch advertisement all day long. Besides all TV shows are also low-brow and uninteresting. People, who participate in them, are mainly actors, low-brow actors and beginners. All talks on TV shows are unnatural and very far from real life.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1157492539566539530-7311226198524990621?l=myhappyblog-johns.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1157492539566539530/posts/default/7311226198524990621'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1157492539566539530/posts/default/7311226198524990621'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://myhappyblog-johns.blogspot.com/2008/12/modern-television.html' title='Modern Television'/><author><name>John</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13618779299458743225</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1157492539566539530.post-6008794428055958762</id><published>2008-11-25T06:06:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-11-25T06:08:48.140-08:00</updated><title type='text'>TVmania</title><content type='html'>&lt;meta equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"&gt;&lt;meta name="ProgId" content="Word.Document"&gt;&lt;meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 10"&gt;&lt;meta name="Originator" content="Microsoft Word 10"&gt;&lt;link rel="File-List" href="file:///C:%5CDOCUME%7E1%5CYAKOVL%7E1%5CLOCALS%7E1%5CTemp%5Cmsohtml1%5C01%5Cclip_filelist.xml"&gt;&lt;!--[if gte mso 9]&gt;&lt;xml&gt;  &lt;w:worddocument&gt;   &lt;w:view&gt;Normal&lt;/w:View&gt;   &lt;w:zoom&gt;0&lt;/w:Zoom&gt;   &lt;w:compatibility&gt;    &lt;w:breakwrappedtables/&gt;    &lt;w:snaptogridincell/&gt;    &lt;w:wraptextwithpunct/&gt;    &lt;w:useasianbreakrules/&gt;   &lt;/w:Compatibility&gt;   &lt;w:browserlevel&gt;MicrosoftInternetExplorer4&lt;/w:BrowserLevel&gt;  &lt;/w:WordDocument&gt; &lt;/xml&gt;&lt;![endif]--&gt;&lt;style&gt; &lt;!--  /* Style Definitions */  p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal 	{mso-style-parent:""; 	margin:0cm; 	margin-bottom:.0001pt; 	mso-pagination:widow-orphan; 	font-size:12.0pt; 	font-family:"Times New Roman"; 	mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";} @page Section1 	{size:595.3pt 841.9pt; 	margin:2.0cm 42.5pt 2.0cm 3.0cm; 	mso-header-margin:35.4pt; 	mso-footer-margin:35.4pt; 	mso-paper-source:0;} div.Section1 	{page:Section1;} --&gt; &lt;/style&gt;&lt;!--[if gte mso 10]&gt; &lt;style&gt;  /* Style Definitions */  table.MsoNormalTable 	{mso-style-name:"Обычная таблица"; 	mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; 	mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; 	mso-style-noshow:yes; 	mso-style-parent:""; 	mso-padding-alt:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt; 	mso-para-margin:0cm; 	mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; 	mso-pagination:widow-orphan; 	font-size:10.0pt; 	font-family:"Times New Roman";} &lt;/style&gt; &lt;![endif]--&gt;    &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span  lang="EN-US" style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Is it possible to find a person nowadays, who doesn’t like to watch TV? I think that it is possible but very difficult. The fact that a person doesn’t like to watch TV, means that he/she is out of fashion and even out of life. All newest information we get from TV and Internet. Internet requires browsing various sites for searching the necessary information and watching TV requires only switching the channels which is much easier and less intellectual. So, almost all people, young and old watch TV and all of them can easily find there something interesting for themselves. Then, after watching something, people like to discuss it with their friends and share opinions about what they have seen on the TV screen. Imagine a situation, that you are offered to watch a movie, which has never been seen by anyone in this world and won’t be seen in future. Will it be interesting for you to watch it? I suppose not. Why? Because you won’t have an opportunity to share your opinion about this movie with your friends, relatives and acquaintances. For some people the most interesting in watching TV shows and movies is not the very process of watching but their further discussion. Thus, if a person is deprived of an opportunity to talk about them, he/she is reluctant to watch them. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span  lang="EN-US" style="font-size:14;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;There are also people, for whom it is enough to watch something and avoid discussions about what they have seen. These people are egoists; they only absorb information and don’t share it with other people. The amount of these people is great. So, as you see, TV is appreciated by all people: young and old, sociable and reserved, talkative and silent. No matter if you like to discuss movies or shows, you like to watch them in any case.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1157492539566539530-6008794428055958762?l=myhappyblog-johns.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1157492539566539530/posts/default/6008794428055958762'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1157492539566539530/posts/default/6008794428055958762'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://myhappyblog-johns.blogspot.com/2008/11/tvmania.html' title='TVmania'/><author><name>John</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13618779299458743225</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1157492539566539530.post-2773690570130752713</id><published>2008-11-19T02:53:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2008-11-19T02:53:22.743-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>My blog about my life and my friends.Sometimes i feel that we are not alone in this world,and i like it)&lt;br /&gt;Well i think all should switch up their brains and begin to thinking because life is so small....
