Social media ’destroying how society works"
A former Facebook executive has said social media is doing great harm to society around the world. The executive is a man called Chamath Palihapitiya. He _________ Facebook in 2007 and _________a vice president. He was responsible for increasing the number of users Facebook had. Mr Palihapitiya said he feels very guilty about getting more people to use social networks. He said the networks are destroying society because they are changing people"s behavior. Twenty years ago, people talked to each other face to face. Today, people message each other and do not talk. People also really care about what other people think of them. They post photos and wait to see how many people like the photo. They get very sad if people do not like the photo.
Mr. Palihapitiya said people should take a long break from social media so they can experience real life. He wants people to value each other instead of valuing online "hearts, likes, and thumbs-up". Palihapitiya also points out how fake news is affecting how we see the world, it is becoming easier for large websites to spread lies. It is also becoming easier to hurt other people online. Anyone can hide behind a fake user name and post lies about other people. Palihapitiya said this was a global problem. He is worried about social media so much that he has banned his children from using it. However, he did state that Facebook was a good company. He said: "Of course, it"s not all bad. Facebook overwhelmingly does good in the world."

TRAVEL TIPS
How to Plan a Movie-Themed Vacation
It’s easier than you may expect to find, visit, and enjoy the
places where your favorite movies were made.
Lars Leetaru
By Shivani Vora
March 8, 2018
Whether it’s the “Lord of the Rings” trilogy in New Zealand or "Roman Holiday” in Rome, many noteworthy movies are filmed in appealing locales all over the world that travelers may want to visit and enjoy.
According to Angela Tillson, a film location manager in Kauai who has worked on the set of films including "Jurassic Park: The Lost World” and “The Descendants," exploring a beloved movie set destination through the eyes of the film makes for an enjoyable vacation. "Seeing a place with a focus on a movie you love will give you a perspective that the average tourist doesn’t usually get. You’ll certainly have a better impression of the place,” she said. Here are her tips to get started.
Choose Your Destination
If there’s a movie you love, you can find out where it was filmed by looking at the credits at the end of the film or by going online to The Internet Movie Database, also known as IMDB, which often lists filming locations. Once you know the locale, you can start planning your trip. Or, consider doing what Ms. Tillson often does when deciding on where to vacation: pick a spot you’re interested in
visiting, and find out what movies have been filmed there. “It’s fun to sometimes let a destination determine the movie you're going to live rather than the other way around,” Ms. Tillson said.
Get in the Mood
Before you head to your destination, be sure to rewatch the movie. A rewatch not only reminds you of identifiable spots to look out for during your trip, but it also adds to the excitement of your upcoming exploration. If the movie is based on a book, consider reading the
book, too. It may have details about the locale that the movie doesn’t touch on. Also, books often have scenes that don’t make it into the movie adaptations, which gives you a deeper view of the destination. Ms. Tillson also recommended downloading the movie’s soundtrack or score, and listening to it throughout your trip.
Book a Themed Trip
Some travel companies sell set itineraries focused on popular movies. Luxury tour operator Zicasso, for example, has an eight-day trip, all inclusive, to Ireland inspired by "Star Wars: The Last Jedi” and Wild Frontiers has an eleven-day trip to India inspired by "The Best Exotic
Marigold Hotel." Ms. Tillson suggested doing a web search or checking with a travel agent to find out about such trips. Also, in some destinations, local tour operators and hotels sell movie-themed tours. For instance, The St. Regis Priceville Resort offers a tour that includes a private helicopter ride to Manawaiopuna Falls, made famous in "Jurassic Park,” and an ATV tour of filming locations of movies such as “Raiders of the Lost Ark" and “Pirates of the Caribbean.” Lunch is even included. The cost is $5,674 for two adults.
A more affordable option, in Rome, is the four-hour “Roman Holiday" themed excursion from HR Tours, where travelers ride a Vespa with a driver and see ail the sites from the movie; the cost is 170 euros per person.
Hang Where the Movie Crew Did
When they’re not working, movie crews enjoy hitting local bars and casual restaurants that serve tasty local cuisine, Ms. Tillson said.
Find out where the behind-the-scenes staff of your film spent their time by asking your destination’s tourist board or your hotel’s concierge, and check out a few of the spots. “It’s another way to get involved in the film and spend time in bars and restaurants that you wouldn’t normally think to hit,” she said.

STEPHEN HAWKING
Stephen Hawking, one of the most famous scientists
of the 21st century, died on March 14th, 2018. But his
ideas on gravity, black holes and the Big Bang are the
greatest legacy he left to the world.
Early Life and College
On January 8th, 1942, Stephen Hawking was born to
a successful family in Oxford, England. He was not the
best student at fundamental or high school, but he was
very smart. His dad wanted him to become a medical
doctor, but Stephen really wanted to study math.
Despite his poor grades at school, Stephen aced his
exams for college. He was admitted to Oxford University,
but they didn't have math as a major. So, he decided to
study physics and chemistry instead.
Stephen became a member of a rowing team when he
was in college. After he graduated, he decided to continue
his education and went to graduate school.
Graduate School, Marriage and Health Problems
While in graduate school, he had some health
problems. He began tripping for no reason, and his speech
became hard to understand. His family encouraged him to
go to the doctor. Stephen was diagnosed with a disease
called ALS, or Lou Gehrig's disease, which affects the
brain and spine. He was only twenty one, and the doctors
initially gave him only a few years to live. Luckily, his
condition progressed more slowly than is often the case.
During this time, Stephen had a relationship with a
woman named Jane. He said she and his work were his
inspiration for living. Stephen earned his Ph.D. degree in
1965. He started to get worse, and eventually became
confined to a wheelchair. Nonetheless, he and Jane
married in 1965 and were able to have three children.
He studied how space and time are related, including
scientific studies of black holes in space and how they
work in the universe. He also had a lot of success in his
work as a college professor.
A New Voice
In 1985, Stephen got really sick and doctors were able
to save him, but he was unable to speak. He could only
use his eyebrows to communicate. Eventually, he was able
to use a special voice synthesizer, allowing him to talk by
moving his cheek muscles and using a mouse pad.
Famous Works and Prizes
His most notorious theory is that black holes can emit
radiation; also known as Hawking radiation. He received
numerous awards but never won the Nobel Prize.
Stephen always enjoyed writing books. His best seller,
“A Brief History in Time” made terms like the Big Bang and
black holes easy to understand. Other famous Stephen
Hawking books include: “A Briefer History in Time", “On the
Shoulders of Giants” and "The Universe in a Nutshell". He
also wrote many books for children along with his daughter
Lucy. His famous books for children include "George’s
Cosmic Treasure Hunt" and “George and the Big Bang”.
His last work, submitted only two weeks before his death, reveals the universe will come to an end when stars run out of energy. However, his theory suggests that scientists will be able to find parallel universes using probes on spaceships.
