History Of Ray-Ban

Ray-Ban sunglasses are a high end expensive sunglasses brand. They are loved by so many people. They help block the sun out with their special lenses.  They were founded in 1937 by the American company Bausch & Lomb. The brand is best known for their Wayfarer and Aviator lines of sunglasses. In 1999, Bausch & Lomb sold the brand to the Italian eyewear conglomerate Luxottica Group, for a reported US$640 million. After that they have finally jumped to the top. Ray-Bans are usually associated with rich people who want the best type of sunglasses. They have a standard that they have to fulfill. People who wear ray bans want a very particular look and that if that look is not achieved they get upset. Ray-Bans are very durable and they are hard to break. I have had the same pair of Ray-Bans for seven years now. Now I collect them all. I like to get the new styles and see what's new and upcoming. I believe that these sunglasses are the most durable glasses. 





Snapchat A Real Life Addiction

Snapchat has become a huge form of social media. Children and adults from the ages of 12-28 use it. Its a form of talking via pictures and text. Also you are able to view a story. A snapchat story is a picture that blasts out to everyone in your snapchat contacts for people to see what your up too. Teens have especially become addicted to the app and it has ruined people's mental health in the process. Studies show that 56% of teens who use snapchat have self esteem issues and are not confident in themselves. People can post pics to make other people jealous of what they are doing at the current time. This is not good this can create so many issues in teens growing up. This can impact their friends and can also impact there face to face personal relationships. Teens do not know how to talk to other teens these days. This is due to the amount of technology teens grew up around. I feel that snapchat has impacted my life in a huge way. I always wanna check it and always want to know what people are up too. It has also affected person to person relationships as well. Kids date via electorally and do not know how to have a full conversation face to face. I feel this damages teens and their growth. Snapchat is harming generations and will continue to harm future generations to come.

Promote Tolerance

I think the most important type of speech is Promote Tolerance. This type of speech deals with free speech and Extremist speech. Some people think that freedom of speech can be hardcore sometimes when it comes to people speaking out. We are told that being an Extremist can be quite a lot sometimes. This word meaning over the top. but in this type of speech I think it is the most important type of speech to promote because of how people should have the right to speak their minds when it comes to ideas of importance. I feel that since these types of speeches have been debated for years that people can take them in a light or heavy way. Sometimes teachers or leaders get upset when people speak out in a dissagering way it makes them feel like they are not supperier anymore. Otherwise most people are ok with expressing free speech in different ways. I feel that In our society we learn lessons from people speaking out and being verbal. The idea is to speak out and have people's voices heard and have their point of view out there in the world. Now we try and spread norms and better behaviors due to people speaking their minds.

Tv


The first television shows appeared in the 1930s. The first maniacal station was called W3XK. It was created by Charles Jenkin. He wanted to make Tv because he wanted people to see the bigger picture. He also thought it would be a way to make life more fun. There were only a certain number of channels at first but then as technology progressed the amount of channels got bigger. It looked like a box. It was very heavy vs the TVs we have today that are flat screen. We have come a long way and improved the look since then. Now there are over 200 channels and so many different types of Tv networks. ABC started off as one of the major networks that Television had at first. It started with so many amazing shows. I personally am I huge Tv fan. Although most days people watch Netflix streaming apps. I love original Tv more. There are just so many shows to offer. I believe that Tv will never go away because of its popularity among many people.

The First Emoji

The first emoji was created in 1999 by a Japanese guy named Shigetaka Kurita. He started them because he wanted a way to be able to communicate more effectively and faster. At first he made on 189 emojis. But right now there is over 1,800 emojis. An emoji is a small face you can send over text to communicate how you're feeling. For example if your feeling happy you can send a smiley face. If your feeling sad you can send a sad face to express your emotions over text. This is especially good if your a shy person who wants to express themselves but is afraid to do so. At first emojis were only a thing in Japan and Americans thought it was weird. But eventually it made it over to the United States, making it one of the most popular things today. There are several movies out about emojis. For example there is a movie out right now called the emoji movie. emojis are on there way to becoming their own language and there is doubt in my mind they will.
