According to billboard.com, Drake initially gained fame or popularity as an actor, for the T.V show Degrassi: The Next Generation, as he had played the role of Jimmy Brooks in the show. Acting really wasn’t quite getting the job done for Drake, and he stepped down from being an actor and later stepped out as a rapper and singer. Drake’s singing career had first started in 2006, when he released his first official mixtape, Room for Improvement. At the start, in 2006 and 2007, when he released his second mixtape, he wasn’t doing so hot and he didn’t even have a reliable or steady source of money coming in. It wasn’t until 2008 until Drake’s future career truly kicked off, and had started being one of the most successful of its time.

Most stories about war show the glory of war and heroism of soldiers. According to OED, war is “a state of armed conflict between different nations or states or different groups within a nation or state”. But, what’s the definition about the stage of confusions in the soldier’s mind? A conflict between two nations or states can be resolved in a particular amount of time but can an experience from a person’s mind can ever be forgotten, can a person ever be able to resolve his own conflict: his fight with his emotions, changes, and his own mind? Tim O’Brien’s The Things They Carried is a powerful combination of fact and fiction; through description and imagination, O’Brien allows the reader to feel a soldier's hardships in the war and

In “Life According to T.V.” written by Harry Waters and published in Newsweek in 1991, Waters examines the effect that television has on everyday lives. He says that TV has given Americans an unrealistic view of how life works. From jobs to minorities to how women are portrayed to crime rates nearly all aspects of TV are unrealistic or exaggerated. George Gerbner was used to back up Water’s theory on how television impacts people. Water states that heavy viewers of TV are more unrealistic in their view of the world than light viewers because they are exposed to more of the unrealistic ideas portrayed in TV shows than light viewers. The jobs on TV are often expressed as high ranking jobs like lawyers, doctors and athletes rather than blue collar or service jobs such as small businessman or teacher.

Norman Cousins and Albert Schweitzer are two such famous people, the first of the twentieth century, the second of late nineteenth century.

The popularity of social media services (SMS), particularly Facebook and Twitter, demonstrate how fast technology is changing. Students' facility with SMS and the amount of time they spend using them should not escape the notice of educators, who can use these tools effectively in their classrooms.
