Do you need a mobile phone

I exclaim that mobile phone don't need in our daily lives.

Mobile phones are becoming ever more popular in many lands.

They are convenient.

Your friends and parents can contact you anytime, anywhere and you them.

Some models allow you to exchange short text messages,

which "is the latest way for young people to feed their urge to communicate," says The Times of London.

There are even mobile phones that can connect you to cyberspace, providing access to Web sites and E-mail.

You may already have one, or you may be planning to get one.

In either case, you might consider the saying:

"There are two sides to every coin." A mobile phone may well have some benefits.

However, you may want to think about the other side of the coin, for even if you choose to buy one,

being fully aware of its potential drawbacks will help you use it wisely.

For

I disagree this opinion. I think that mobile phones don't need to use.

First, because everyone could spend their daily lives without mobile phones once.

At one time everyone must meet each other when they want to communicate with.

And after the telephone was invented, everyone could communicate with each other at their house.

Second, because everyday and everyone easily connect with each other is sometimes disturbed and cumbersome.

Maybe you have experience in these incidents.

For example, it don't have to make contact with the friend because of small business.

And I have some important business in real life but someone connect with me in small business.

Third, because ties between people are gradually weaken because of mobile phones.

Human relations should be built by communication meeting face to face.

Communication seeing the other is really important because we should see expression and think the opinion of the other.

Forth, because many problems have occurred by mobile phones such as used in crimes.

It is so many amounts of crimes which use mobile phones well. This is a really great problem.

For instance, fraudulence what is called "Oreore Sagi", fishing scams and or fishing mails,

fraudulent billing scheme and so on. The extent of the damage is too vast.

Fifth, because the manner of mobile phones is not good and this makes someone annoy.

In public place, most people use mobile phones, but this can make cardiac pacemaker not work.

And in trains someone telephones and in the place where we must not use mobile phone some uses mobile phones.

I think they are really moral hazard.

Sixth, because it is bad influence for children, this should be firstly avoided.

In Japan, most junior high school students have their own mobile phones.

As a result, this makes many junior high school students cell phone addiction.

They cannot live daily lives without mobile phones. They communicate with each other by using electronic bulletin boards and online chats.

It is heard that there are children who go mad when mobile phones are confiscated by their parents.

And, the abuse which is written on electronic bulletin boards cause bullying in school.

Furthermore, they don't understand the application is not free and pocket charge is separate.

I was often heard the packet charge becomes 180 thousand yen in my junior high school.

Against

Then, I talk about this problem on the other standing.

First, because mobile phone is needed in emergency for instance someone is lying.

If you must notify the police or fire department, using mobile phone with walking is very convenient.

Second, now mobile phones are must item in most developed country.

Therefore not having mobile phone usually makes unnecessary trouble.

For example, if you get friends with man, maybe he says to you "Shall we exchange our address?".

Then you answered "I don't have a mobile phone." This is quite troublesome.

Third, convenient application such as transportation transfer search is really great,

many people may have experience to use this application on the mobile phone.

Forth, if you are free, you can play game application on the mobile phones.

There are many free game applications. (of course packet charge is separate.)

Some of them are a lot of fun and worth paying money.

Fifth, in case of salutary it makes us move easily connecting with each other.

If you use a mobile phone properly, you can get many splendid friends who cannot encounter daily lives.

Reply

Much of your claim is certainly compelling.

But please remember the past which didn’t have mobile phone.

In these days, did you feel that it is inconvenient in daily lives?

Certainly if you go these days due to time travel, you feel a little inconvenient.

However you didn't feel inconvenient in these days.

I also didn't feel inconvenient at all, in my childhood I didn't use mobile phones

when the meeting, the chatting or doing research.

If you could do it once, why you cannot do it now?

Conclusion

Today everyone have mobile phones, also I have mobile phones too.

But I want everyone to rethink that mobile phones that it is need or not.

I am a neutral standpoint with the opinion, too.

It is not denied to be to embarrass it if there is no cellular phone.

However, it is often felt whether it is necessary to have it.

Opinions are my own true opinions up to about the first three. 909

The discussion surely necessary is sure to advance more all ideas.

I think that it is important that there is a chance to think like this.

It would be greatly appreciated if this insistence becomes such a chance.

It is true communications that requested by man now.

I want you think the use of the cellular phone whether wonderful or not.

If you can do such a communication by using mobile phone, it is really great. 997

Chikara's vision of a better world

What is a better world?
How do you think that we live in a better world?
There might be so many ideas.
And everyone has their own ideas.

Also I have my own idea about a better world.
I think that a better world is the world where everyone is always happy.
This connects so act, it is needed to negotiate by using money and pros and cons.

For example, my own happiness such as passing the entrance exam of course makes me happy.
But, the happiness of others also makes me happy, and the piece of the world is also makes me happy.
I think love acts very important role of a better world.

It is usually said that love cannot change our world by realists.
But, I don't think "All your need is love ."

Do you know Mother Teresa?
She is a famous nuns and her work has been evaluated and she got Nobel Peace Prize as a result.
Mother Teresa said, "We are not that big. However, only small things with great love".
And, she said, "Human smile, and people forget the communion of man.This is a very large poverty." too.
"Opposite of love is not hate, indifference." is also quotation of one of her speeches.

I do not completely agree with her philanthropy because of her way of that activities.
For example, she is a basically a Christian fundamentalist, so she didn't use drugs and painkiller.
But, when she became disease she used drugs.
But, I agree with these sentences.
Human should act with these way of thinking.

A better world should make us all happy.
It is too difficult to be all people happy.
But, everyone should aim at a better world.
We all have rights to become happy.

Japanease Culture Blog

When I think about modern Japanease culture ,I realize modern Japanease music like J-pop.
The kind of Japanease music is as various as that kind of Europe and North America.
For example ,pop,rock,electro,hiphop,legar,punk,hardcore,metal,enka and the music which combined various music.
Itis often said that Japanease music is rough.Cirtainly ,these music whave a great influence on the music of Europe ,North America ,Carib and any other countries.
And, it is also said that Japanease music is the solid of the music which is made in America and any other countries.
But, I never believe these rumors.In America the genre of music is completely separeted so each genre are seldom mixed.
In Japan the genre of music isn't perfectly separeted and there is some artists who cannot categorize there genre so each genre are easily mixed.
This is only my opinion.Therefore much objection consists.

Generally, what is called popular music appeared after the World War Ⅱ.
In Japan the start of popular music is a little strange and very interesithing.
In America folksong is quite traditionnal
because before the World War Ⅱ traditional folksong which uses acoustic guitars and acoustic bass are exists.
And, after the appearence of the beatles most of popular folksong singers like Bob Dylan use these musical instrument and drums,
and eventually what is called band makes a play.
But, in Japan, before the war there is no culture of guitars so Japanease folksong which has a great influence on American folksong like Peter,Paul and Mary
suddenly occered.

Then it would continue to develop their own folk songs to Japan.
Essential presence on the music scene in Japan talk about the YMO.
YMO was debuted in 1978, and there is said to represent the techno-pop genre, rating it high in the world.
the song "RYDEEN"(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sk6o4GWFIV8) is their representative song and which is known by many people and very famous.
The man who didn't know this song seems to know this song on TV or radio.
YMO means Yellow Magic Orchestra.
Once, the leader of YMO, Hosono Haruomi held up Yellow magic as his musical concept.
This is comparison between white magic (symbol of white and good) or black magic (symobol of black and evil) and Yellow magic (as a symbol of yellow).
They have very large effects on of course music and fashion.
For example, it is said that their song "U・T"was based trance-techno, and thir song "RIOT IN LAGOS"
was based hiphop.
Also their fashion is very characteristic.
their hair is very short and their sideburns is cut.this hair style is called "techno cut".Now famous comedian Kasuga from Audrey is techno cut.

Do you know Komuro Tetsuya?
He is Japanease famous music producer, lylicists, composer, orchestrator, keyboardist, synthesist, sythesizer programer.
He mainly belongs to "TM Network"and "globe".
He has so many well-selled songs such as "My Revolution", "Get Wild"and so on.
He produce so many artists like "Mizuki Arisa","Ryouko Shinohara","trf","Tomomi Kahara","Namie Amuro","Ami Suzuki" and so on.
He is so to speak musical genius, but his music had not sold well since 2000.
So his income had dicreased very rapidly,maybe he want to keep his every day life, this spring he arrested because of his fraud.
He was sentenced 3 years imprisonment and 5 years probation.

Then I introduce some my favorite artists.

Thee michelle gun elephant is Japanease rock band and it gave a great influence on any other artists
such as Japanease popular rock band "ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION", "9mm Parabellum Bullet"in Japan.
And the name of these two bands mimiced the style of its name which three English words are lined up.
They are often called TMGE or michelle and they are mainly affected by garage rock, punk rock and pub rock.
"Cutting" which is one of the way of playing by the guitar of this band Abe futoshi is beyond Japanease ability and makes sound like growl and facinate our mind.
What I was most impressed by is the last of their last live "LAST HEAVEN TOUR" at Makuhari Messe.
Their first single is World's end. This is great song.If you have interest, I want you to listen to this song.
And their last song at their last live is World's end.
(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ZaX_SDmz3U&feature=related)
It rarely happened that their debut single is suitable for their real last song.
It is so great that the very last song played in the same members is correspond with their first songs which is thir orgin.
I love their music.

Sakanakushon is Japanease pop and electronica band.
The name of this band is the combination of "Sakana" which means fish in Japanease and action.
Main member of this band born in Hokkaido.
Once they worked some livehouse in Sapporo and often practiced the studio which I also practice.
Every year Rising Sun Rock Festival is held at Ishikari, and they were played because of recommended by Public in Rising Sun Rock Feestival 2006 in EZO.
After the act of this event they start to play in Tokyo.
Their feature of sound is of course keyboard. Keyboard makes their world fantastic.
Their sound is just true the thing I told at first "the genre of music isn't perfectly separeted and there is some artists who cannot categorize there genre so each genre are easily mixed.".

Last,I introduce to you Japanease folk song and new music artist Inoue Yousui.
In japan every one know him and his represantative songs "Shounenjidai"(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqUA_UQsKE4), "Kazari jya nainoyo namidaha","Asia inocence" are also known very well.
His music and his way of sing are very delicate and sentimental ,and it has moved so many people for about forty years.

I introduced to you some artists in Japan.
If you like Japanease popular music, this blog gives you some knowledge about the music.
If you don't like this music ,this blog makes you a little interest in this music.
If so, I'm so happy to write this blog.
Thank you for reading this blog to the end.
Music is wonderful, you should listen to music into details.
