Fever in Tokyo for the iPad

The depreciation of the yen, the Japanese currency has raised the cost of imports of the popular tablets iPad and Apple iPhone handsets, which retail prices have increased 20%. The rise, which came into force on Friday, has caused sales of U.S. manufacturer's devices have soared in anticipation that, once depleted stock products are considerably more expensive.

This fever for the iPhone is a spillover effect of the stimulus plan of Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, who has launched an ambitious program to encourage inflation. The plan, known as Abenomics, has not stopped the rate of the yen against other international reference currencies, especially the dollar, which is the reference currency of Apple. As a result, exports encouraged Japanese products, raises income within the country and stimulate spending. In the case of the iPhone or iPad, however, the stimulus to consumption has been in another way.

I do not understand how people can have that uncontrollable fever to Apple or other brands. Although put a price most high, customers will continue to buy that brand, be faithful or not, simply fashions. I've seen up in high school, boys and girls of 12 have the iphone last about 700 euros, more or less, and I wonder: is a whim of the parents or children are a pampered? Also I have seen in the street, people who do not look expensive clothes and have a last generation iphone.

I have also seen the number one fan of Apple, who has all ipods, ipads iphones i Mac, you have left, that if those who have gone lately, none of the ancients, those are not cool ... I think this are fashions, thought, if he does, I also want it. I do not think that having an iPhone is bad, of course not, only in bad economic times we should not waste our money on a product that expensive.

Google Glass: the spectacles that double as a smartphone

If you are one of those people who feels e-mails, phone calls and social networking have invaded enough of their lives already, look away now.

Google has released the first video showing what the world looks like through the latest prototype of its “smart glasses”, a computer integrated into your field of vision.

I think this product will be a real revolution, as was the iphone in its infancy, so will the Google Glass, shortly after this innovation may surprise. To me this device was very surprised and certainly not many, because I thought that something like that would be invented soon. I guess I find myself easily in terms of new technologies. These things frighten a little, because you know that you can not invent tomorrow and that is an incredible revolution that changes everything.

Podcast: An English Country: United States of America

America was discovered in 1492 from Columbus.

The United States of America became independent on the 4rt of June in 1776.

Their were 13 different States when they became independent.

The United States is in North America, occupying most of the territory. It is the 3rd largest country in the world and the 3rd most populous. Also belongs Alaska, Hawaii, and other territories.

The food culture: they like eating much fast food, they are the biggest fast food industry. And because of that they have got big problems with obesity. They drink more tee than coffee, not like here, and his is better for the population.

The sport culture:  the 2 most important sports in the USA are American football and Baseball. And a also important sport in the USA is ice hockey, they are one of the bests teams in the world.

IN the USA they pay with dollar not euros.

We can see in this picture the number of cultures in the U.S.. We see in the north of the country most of the culture is German. In the center and left many Irish and in the southwestern part of Mexico's most. In the center and on the right is most Americans and below many African Americans in the northeast and many English and Irish.

It’s a tradition that there are friendly when you go there.

And if you are invited to a dinner you should bring a small present.

They also eat more with their fingers than us.

They have similar traditions like us: Christmas, Halloween.

But they also have other important dates in the U.S.A. is the day they celebrate their independence on July 4 and Thanksgiving Day

English is the official language of the U.S.. 80% of the population speak English, 10% speak Spanish, which is the second most spoken language and is learned as a second language. In Hawaiian spoken English and Hawaiian. In New Mexico Spanish and English. And Louisiana is spoken in English and French. In other states other minority languages , are spoken, but not as important.

Description of a place

In this picture we can see a very beautiful beach. I supposed that it is situated in a hot country, maybe in the Caribbean. We don't see anybody, in the back ground , in these cabins maybe are people, tourists and natives from the island. Back to the cabins are a green mountain, which have the same form like a volcano.

The colour of the water is turquoise . In front are three palms planted in the sand. Between two palms are a white hammock, seems like is very comfortable. We can see a very nice blue sky with some clouds. Respect the sea there aren't any waves, and it is very quiet.

Dear Kate,

Thanks for your letter, I'm glad to hear that you're well. You were asking me if I spend my holidays in Greece and what places I recommend. Well, I'm going camping abroad this year, but when I stay in Greece, my friends usually rent a holiday home in a place called Brontë, near Atenas.

I can recommend Brontë. I like it because it's a small village, but it's quite lively. It's a pretty place with a relaxed atmosphere. You soon meet friendly people in the cafés or just sitting in the square.

If you come here, you'll need a great camera to do a lot of photos, the views are awesome. Here are a few photos from my last visit.

I hope to see you soon.
