The Internet company Google is testing its newest high-tech device, Google Glass. The company describes the glasses as wearable computers that would change the way people view others and the world.
The glasses can make and receive calls, send and receive texts, take pictures, record video or search the web. You control Google Glass using your voice, and a touchpad on the right arm of the frame.
Professor Marcia Dawkins is among a select group of people who have been given a chance to test out Google Glass."I thought this is something I definitely need for my classroom and hopefully for my personal life too."
The Professor's Google Glass looks like a bright orange glasses, without the actual glass. But there's a tiny rectangular glass at the top right-hand corner. Through that glass, she has been recording video while biking. She also has been able to talk to her sister in Thailand, and she plans to use the device to teach a public speaking class.
But not everyone is excited about Google Glass. Some are concerned about possible risks to privacy. John Simpson is the director of the privacy project at Consumer Watchdog."It is essentially going to allow people to come in and spy on you and record that, without you knowing what is going on."
Google says that it has already addressed that concern. Mr Dale explained that in order to start the camera or record a video, the owner must say something out loud. "I activate the device, and say 'Okay, glass, take a picture.' Similarly, I have to push a little button on the top here so everybody around me will know a picture is being taken and a video is being recorded."
But Filmmaker Chris Barrett showed just how easy it is to record people without them knowing it. His glass captured a man getting arrested after a fight. He shared the video on YouTube.
Also some are concerned about the use of facial recognition technology on Google Glass. But Google says it will not approve the use of such applications. The Internet company says it is still testing its new device, and it hopes to make Google Glass available to the public by early next year.

We give presents to say “I’m sorry.”

People tend to talk about presents in a fairly loving way. A woman whose mother had died years ago described the many gifts around her house. These were gifts that her mother had given her over the years: “I appreciate these, and they mean something to me,” the woman said, “because I remember the occasions they were given on, and that they were from my mother, and the relationship we’ve had. ” The gifts remain and keep the relationship alive in mind. This woman felt the same way about the gifts she gave to others. She hoped that the recipients would look at her gifts in years to come and remember her.
