iPhone X
Nowadays a lot of gadgets are being released by different companies, especially the Apple Company. They released a lot of new items this past few month and the one that amazed me a lot was the iPhone X. It is the latest gadget of the Apple Company. It is so good. New design, new specs, widescreen, super HD camera, with the main camera, you'll get clear photos with nicely saturated colors and excellent contrast. And the allied telephoto camera brings in an improved version of the Portrait mode that debuted in the iPhone 7 plus last year, as well as tweakable lighting conditions with the Portrait Lighting function. It also lets you zoom without losing detail like you would with digital zoom. It has a fingerprint unlock, face unlock, and the coolest feature of iPhone X for me was the wireless charger, you may think it’s a joke but it’s not, you can search its special feature on the Internet if you want. You'll be able to toss the phone onto a Qi-enabled charging pad to top up at any point, which saves some hassle of grabbing the cord every time you want to charge for a few minutes. It's a pretty solid battery inside, too: the 2,716mAh tally from the two cells have routinely given us a strong full day of usage, although you might tap it out sooner with heavy games and media usage. Not mind-blowing by any stretch of the imagination, but it'll get the job done most of the time. It is also convenient because you can carry it anywhere you want to go.
The iPhone X somewhat has features that I don’t like, it’s the removing the home button. Yes, it may be great if the screen is much bigger but in the case of iPhone X, it’s not. They removed the home button so that the screen of it will be much bigger than the other iPhones. When you are an iPhone user ever since it will be hard for you to use the iPhone X because it doesn’t have a home button. One more is that price was so expensive, well, what will we expect, it’s an apple product. Other than that, I don’t have any dislikes in iPhone X.
I recommend iPhone X to those who want to have a very convenient and innovative gadget, you can use it in business, it will not going to lag because of its high specs. It is so advance phone. iPhone X is maybe one of the best gadgets in the world in this era. I assure you, it’s so cool!

‘All the Bright Places’
A review by ‘The Guardian’
Strengths
- All the Bright Places is a beautifully written book that is, at times, very difficult to read.
- Violet and Finch are both very well-written and developed characters.
- The story is told in alternating viewpoints between Finch and Violet. I really liked this format because it allowed me to get inside their heads and know what they were thinking.
- I really liked the character of Finch because he was different and spontaneous. You never knew what to expect from him. And I connected with Violet because we both share a love of writing.
- It’s a great illustration of the contradictions that can fill a person with depression.
- All the Bright Places does a great job. I connected with the way Finch needed to find an active reason to stay alive, how he regularly pushed himself to physical exertion to feel life to pump through him, but still couldn’t stop himself from thinking about all the ways people have killed themselves
Weaknesses
- The book also does an awful job of portraying the means to recovery from depression or any mental illness.
- In All the Bright Places both standard treatment methods are shown in a very negative light. Therapists are well-meaning adults who don’t really understand at best, or at worst will put in minimal effort to try and get the depressed kid back in line.
- Suicide is a delicate topic to put in any story. Sometimes it’s used for sensationalism and sometimes it’s meant to illustrate poignant tragedy. In a book about depression though, it’s simply an essential element to discuss. Sadly, depression and suicide go together all too often in the real world. Unfortunately, Finch’s suicide is one that is handled poorly, ruining much of the book.
- The problem and this is the big spoiler I mentioned, is that one of the protagonists kills himself. I was worried about this for the entire book.
As a reader of this book, I would recommend it for those who want to read a type of genre which are an adventure, romance, comedy, drama, anxiety, tragic </3, even though it was tragic, the story was so good. It was the best book I've ever read.

‘Pollution Everywhere, I am not aware.’
The word pollution has been derived from the Latin word pollution, which means to make dirty. Pollution is the process of making the environment land water and air dirty by adding harmful substances to it. Pollution causes imbalance in the environment. This imbalance has threatened the very survival of all forms of life. It is a threat to the whole world.
Nowadays, children are leading the environmental revolution. More educated and smarter on the issues that the world is facing, children are changing the planet. Still, all the education in the world cannot counter the pressure that big business is putting on the globe. Chemicals, human wastes, toxic wastes, and other kinds of pollution are beyond repair in some cases. Corporations do not care about the planet; they are willing to trade off small environmental risks for jobs and success in individual communities.
Environmental pollution is a serious problem of the industrialized societies. The industrial development and the Green Revolution have adversely affected the environment. People have converted the life supporting system of the entire living world into their own resources and have vastly disturbed the natural ecological balance. Serious degradation and depletion have been caused due to the overuse, misuse and mismanagement of resources to meet the human greed.
Industrialization has led to urbanization. The migration of rural population to the cities in search of work has created an unhealthy environment. It has led to overcrowding and establishment of slum areas. Towns and cities are full of smoke, fumes dirt dust rubbish gases foul smell and noise.
Air pollution, According to the dictionary, air pollution is the contamination of air by smoke and harmful gases, mainly oxides of carbon, sulfur, and nitrogen. Air pollution is linked to asthma, allergies and other respiratory illnesses. Land pollution is the degradation of the Earth's surface caused by a misuse of resources and improper disposal of waste. Land pollution is responsible for damage done to natural habitat of animals, deforestation and damage done to natural resources, and the general ugly-ing up of our communities. Light pollution is the brightening of the night sky inhibiting the visibility of stars and planets by the use of improper lighting of communities. Light pollution uses more energy by shining more light up instead of down, meaning you need brighter bulbs for the same amount of light, may affect human health and our sleep cycles, and most importantly, corrupts our kids telescopes and their curiosity.
Noise pollution is any loud sounds that are either harmful or annoying to humans and animals. Noise pollution can be disruptive to humans' stress levels, may be harmful to unborn babies, and drives animals away by causing nervousness and decreasing their ability to hear prey or predators.
Thermal pollution is the increase of temperature caused by human activity.These kinds of environmental pollution can cause aquatic life to suffer or die due to the increased temperature, can cause discomfort to communities dealing with higher temperatures, and will affect plant-life in and around the area.
Visual pollution is what you would call anything unattractive or visualing damaging to the nearby landscape. This tends to be a highly subjective topic. Mostly, visual kinds of environmental pollution are annoying and ugly, although some may say they are also depressing, and they of course affect the surrounding landscape with the changes they cause.
Water pollution is the contamination of any body of water. These kinds of environmental pollution are linked to health issues in humans, animals and plant-life.
According to DoH, pollution causes different types of diseases. Air pollution causes allergies asthma lung cancer and bronchitis. Radioactive pollutants cause respiratory problems paralysis cancer and other disease .Excessive noise pollution can lead to deafness anxiety stress increase in the rate of heartbeat and other health problems.
The emission of greenhouse gases has led to climatic changes. The increase in pollution has resulted in global warming. Global warming is an average increase in the Earth temperature due to greenhouse effect as a result of both natural and human activity. The term climate is often used interchangeably the term global warming.
In order to fight this menace of pollution vigorous efforts should be made like First, organizing campaigns is one of the several ways to increase awareness on environmental pollution to public. There are few activities that can be carried out such as planting. Trees can improve the air quality of the environment by filtering harmful dust and pollutants such as carbon dioxide and sulphur monoxide. Besides, by practicing 3r’s (reduce, reuse, recycle) we can save natural resources, protect the environment and save money at the same time. Secondly, by carpooling to get to work, one can help reduce the number of vehicles on road. Apart from that, use an energy-conserving grade motor oil and keep tires properly inflated and aligned can help reduce air pollution. Less vehicles on the road can reduce pollution. This means better health for us and the environment. Thirdly, steps to prevent water pollution include minimizing the usage of pesticides. Use natural fertilizers for vegetations. Next, dispose of hazardous materials, such as paint, motor oil and toxics responsibly. Do not litter, especially in or near water resources. Organize a community clean up event near a river or lake to raise awareness to public. Hence, our community can enjoy a cleaner environment. Lastly, humans have caused pollution. It is important for the whole community to act as a whole and change that will make the planet habitable in the years to come.
General awareness is a must to save our planet from destruction. All the nations of the world should work united to control environmental pollution.
So that the Earth will regain its beauty, but only if we human perform our duty. “Treat the earth well. It was not given to you by your parents. It was loaned to you by your children”. This Kenyan proverb marks the pungent need of the hour i.e. Eco-friendly lifestyle. It is high time that we stop the blame game and take initiative and responsibility to conserve and preserve our nature. We all want to extend our generation, then why not gift them an environment that is safe, healthy and free of pollution. Let our future generation see the exploding palms, clear skies, elegant waves, etc. In short let them enjoy the mesmerizing beauty, the elegance of nature and live in a safe, healthy and uncontaminated environment.

Today, the availability of Dragon fruit plant in the Philippines already hits the Philippine market. Because of its nutritious contents and many uses, mostly in fighting diabetes because of its high amount in fiber, farmers got more interested and make it as their business. The method of planting is by stem cuttings or through seedlings but based on studies it will take too long for the plant to grow and produce fruit.
Since the impact of dragon fruit to consumers is rising, the researchers decided to help increase the production of dragon fruit plant. Thus, this paper discusses the researchers that will study the ability of Dragon fruit (“Hylocereus costaricensis”) to grow and propagate through Plant Tissue Culturing. With ten set-ups, each has the same amount of chemicals and agar added and observed and examined within 13 days.

According to Maluniu (2009), Stress is a biological term used for consequences of the failure to respond correctly to emotional or physical threats to a person. Maluniu (2009) states that stress is everywhere. Let us discuss more about its origins, symptoms as well as the steps or ways on how to relieve it and of becomes harmful when it exceeds the limit of the individual.
As said by CliffsNotes.com (n.d.), the origins of stress may vary depending on the individual; however, there are usual causes of stress such as: Frustration when an individual is hindered from their desired goal; Aggression of an enemy causing an attack to the individual’s physical or emotional well-being; Life changes of the individual such as: the death of a loved one, tragic accident or being fired from work. Conflict between friends, family or colleagues inside the workplace as well as the lack of control and uncertainty of their daily activities or workplace are other causes of stress. Stress is unavoidable with everyone. According to Maluniu and Wholefitness.com (n.d.), since we cannot totally stop stress, there are at least ways to alleviate or relieve stress: Take deep breaths to prevent stress from taking over your mind and body. This is the most immediate defense against stress. Next, communicate to a friend to get stress out of your chest. You could just laugh about it since there is a saying that laughter is the best medicine. Another way to relieve stress is by getting physically fit and being confident about you because your health and appearance is another cause of stress. By being fit, you tend to soothe your mind and body. Being organized is another way of relieving stress since stress also arises from the feeling of being overwhelmed by your daily activities. Also say “no” whenever you do not feel like you will enjoy what you are about to do. Next, be thankful for your blessings instead of sulking around and thinking of the things you do not have or what you did not achieve. Lastly, you have to meditate and soothe your senses with a relaxing spa treatment or massage. You cannot avoid stress but you can still just relieve or lessen it. The above-mentioned steps or ways do not require you to follow them in a consistent or chronological order. You can just follow only the steps that are effective for you.
Its not the load that breaks you down, it’s the way that you carry it. This is according to Lou Holtz in relation to the word Stress. Everyone is really experiencing stress in different fields and different events

After a time of quietness, individuals lining for packs of NFA rice will be seen. More regrettable, for somewhere in the range of, an adjusted supper daily is never again conceivable. This will lead individuals to think about how they can help counter this firmly felt issue. At eateries, seeing numerous remaining servings of rice realizing that ravenous individuals in settlement regions exist. While in transit to class, families protected in a roughly constructed shack at the town pulling through lunch with insignificant road nourishments and noodles nearby will be seen. Along the region, adolescents were fulfilling themselves with restricted sticks sold by sellers. However, at the square container, exchange off were seen—understudies neglecting the estimation of sustenance where plates are left on the table.
