Photoshop me… ;)
Recently I learned how you can edit images in Photoshop. My tutor showed me a few tricks on how to make a celebrity look like you by “pasting your head on his or her head”. This may sound easy, but if you want it to look nice you do have to put some work into it. You have to blend your image with the other image and you do this by making use of the different tools in Photoshop.I to edited a photo of Kate Beckinsale and put my face on hers. To me it was quite a challenge to make my head fit on hers, make my picture in the same shadow and light streams as Kate Beckinsale’s picture and of course make our skin color blend which was not so easy because I am a bit more tanned then she is. All and all a lot of work.

Power of the Masses
The press chooses of what we all see and hear, a specially how we hear about it. They portray news in the way they see it to be most interesting. They exaggerate and lie about the truth and sell it to us.
We as a large group decide how we respond and we make a difference by using that information as a group. This way we are a power, a power of the masses. Together we can do so many beautiful and horrible things.
A nice example of a group being more powerful than one is; if you snap one twig it will snap easily, but when you try this with ten twigs it will not go as easily. Another example is when you work together on a project you will finish it more quickly than when you do this on your own.
As a mass we have done many things. Forbidden slavery, start wars, looked for a lost child called Madeline (everyone has probably heard about it), set up whole connections through myspace and many many more!
The Power of the Masses can be dangerous as wonderful. I am not yet agreeing on it to be more wonderful than dangerous or the other way around. I have read a wonderful blog about the power of the masses on the internet. If you like to read it then please do http://blogs.tech-recipes.com/seamonkey420/2007/05/03/the-power-of-the-masses-go-digg .
Horrific and warm images about what a mass can achieve!

Mobility
There are many ways to view mobility. Mobility means the way to willingly move or change yourself. So it is not just about transporting yourself from one place to another.
These days we cannot imagine life without a mobile phone, laptop, mp3 player etc. We are able to use these objects while we move around. This makes our life easier and ads luxury in our world. (do gadgets really make our life easier? http://www.lifetipsdaily.com/gadgets-make-life-easier-but-you-work-harder/ )
I know I would not go out of the door without my mp3 player, my cell-phone and my laptop. These things have become a necessity to the way I live. These things help me to move forward in a way of change and movement.
Mobility has also a lot to do with how you move around in society. You could get another position within the society that you live in by studying or other means. You grow towards better and more wonderful things. This refers to the fact that you are able to willingly change yourself in something else. Thus growing and moving forward in society.
Everyone has probably heard about chips being inserted in to cars, motorcycles and other things. Well recently there has been a way to put a chip in a human arm so that you can follow that person around. The opinions about this subject are greatly divided. (need to know more about these chips http://blogs.reuters.com/2006/07/22/high-tech-cloning/ ) Recently Rihanna made a song about driving (moving
). I thought this song would fit nicely into my mobility theme so…………
