TEXT 2

The first step in establishing a cyber ethical culture is to ask the really tough questions, the answer to which may be politically incorrect. HR (Human resources), legal, security and top management need to work together to set the tone they wish to flow through gaming; other times off-site meetings will work.

The second step is to include cyber ethical components in corporate security awareness campaigns to keep employees clued in.

The last but most important step is to be ready to make changes rapidly when cyber ethics becomes a component of information security efforts. We cannot predict how they will change tomorrow or next year – but we need to be prepared.

The six–year molars
The six–year molars are the permanent teeth. They are the "keystone" of the dental arch. They are also extremely susceptible to decay.
Parents have to understand that these teeth are very important. Over 25% of 6 to 7 year old children have beginning cavities in one of the molars.
The early loss of one of these molars causes serious problems in childhood and adult life. It is never easy for parents to make kids take care of their teeth. Even so, parents have to insist and never give up.

How fake images change our memory and behaviour

For decades, researchers have been exploring just how unreliable our own memories are. Not only is memory fickle when we access it, but it"s also quite easily subverted and rewritten. Combine this susceptibility with modem image-editing software at our fingertips like Photoshop, and it"s a recipe for disaster. In a world where we can witness news and world events as they unfold, fake images surround us, and our minds accept these pictures as real, and remember them later. These fake memories don"t just distort how we see our past, they affect our current and future behaviour too - from what we eat, to how we protest and vote. The problem is there"s virtually nothing we can do to stop it.

Old memories seem to be the easiest to manipulate. In one study, subjects were showed images from their childhood. Along with real images, researchers snuck in manipulated photographs of the subject taking a hotair balloon ride with his or her family. After seeing those images, 50% of subjects recalled some part of that hot-air balloon ride - though the event was entirely made up.

Crystal Ball
Come see your life in my crystal glass –
Twenty–five cents is all you pay.
Let me look into your past –
Here?s what you had for lunch today:
Tuna salad and mashed potatoes,
Collard greens pea soup and apple juice,
Chocolate milk and lemon mousse.
You admit I?ve got told it all?
Well, I know it, I confess,
Not by looking, in my ball,
But just by looking at your dress.

National Geographic News

Christine Dell’Amore

Published April 26, 2010

Our bodies produce a small steady amount of natural

morphine, a new study suggests. Traces of the chemical

are often found in mouse and human urine, leading

scientists to wonder whether the drug is being made

naturally or being delivered by something the subjects

consumed. The new research shows that mice produce

the “incredible painkiller” — and that humans and other

mammals possess the same chemical road map for

making it, said study co-author Meinhart Zenk, who studies

plant-based pharmaceuticals at the Donald Danforth Plant

Science Center in St. Louis, Missouri.

Hip hop music
Hip hop music is a musical genre which developed as part of hip hop culture, and is defined by key stylistic elements such as rapping, DJing, sampling (or synthesis), scratching and beatboxing. Hip hop began in the South Bronx of New York City in the 1970s. The term rap is often used synonymously with hip hop, but hip hop denotes the practices of an entire subculture.

Brazilian hip hop is one of the world?s major hip hop scenes, with active rap, break dance, and grafitti scenes, especially in São Paulo, where groups tend to have a more internacional style, influenced by old school hip hop and gangsta rap.
Brazilian rap has served as a reflection of political, social, and racial issues plaguing the disenfranchised youth in the suburbs of São Paulo and Rio. The lyrical content, band names, and song names used by Brazilian hip hop artists often connote the socio–political issues surrounding their communities.
