Living Up to Expectations?
By:Ted Belfour
With celebrity owners like the exceedingly cool Paris Hilton, there’s little doubt that Motorola’s Razr cell phone is the one to be seen with. Available in a range of colors, including the heiress’s signature pink, the Razr is the fashion accessory to be seen with. And while few consumers doubt the hip value of the half an inch thick phone, many reviewers are rating the cell phone in a slightly less favorable way. So is the Razr really all it’s cracked up to be?
Let’s just look at its physical dimensions first. While the phone is undoubtedly one of the slimmest you are likely to find, what it lacks in girth, it makes up for in width – the Razr is rather wide, which, in a fickle consumer world, might turn many people of it. But this minor imperfection aside, the Razr really does look good: with dual outer and inner screens that are impressively big, and a metal etched keypad with clear, raised number keys, the cell phone simply can’t be accused of lacing in the looks department.
But we all know that beauty is only skin deep, and some find this truism to be nowhere more true than in the case of Motorola’s Razr cell phone. Though they look good when new, the phone’s dual screens are rather susceptible to damage, and some reviewers have reported that neither they, nor the keypad, wears well. The slender nature of the phone also creates a keypad that is only very slightly raised, and some users report difficulties in using the keys for typing SMS messages.
The Razr is made without any plastic in its casing, creating a smooth surface that is not easily damaged. The fashion conscious might wish to know, however, that though reviewers report the casing to be not easily dented, they comment that any damage inflicted does show up rather badly.
The software features included with the Razr comprise what reviewers report to be a good deal, including an email client, WAP browser and Java game support. The phone is not, however, powerful enough to support the type of gaming associated with action-type pursuits. Reviewers also note that the phone included in the Razr is unimpressive, with better models available with other phones.
In short, the Razr offers a range of qualities that make it a good buy for those who know what to expect. As a fashion accessory, the Razr undoubtedly fills the role more than adequately, but if you are looking for a simple, more basic phone then another cell phone choice might very well be best for you.

- 2). Native Speakers? By : Brenda Townsend Hall
In a recent poll, I asked readers if they thought English language teachers should be native speakers. The result was interesting, as the vote from those with an opinion was close with 48% believing they should be native speakers and 41% saying no. I don’t know what you think about this but I’ve always had mixed feelings.
The first question I would raise with those who believe being a native speaker is an essential prerequisite for an English language teacher is, which nat...

- 3). Don't Hesitate To Cry A Tear By : Hallidae Thomason
Growing up, my siblings and I were never aloud to cry even just one tear. No matter how sad, mad or hurt we were, tears were never allowed. We were told that truly tough people didn't shed a tear no matter how bad life got. Tears, our parents said, were for wimps and people who weren't strong enough to handle life.
As I grew into my teenage years, I found it nearly impossible to make it through week after week without crying a single tear. Since I knew my parents would not...
