John Fink

John Fink came in to class today was the guest speaker. He has been in the television industry for many years now and he gave us everything he's got. He is now on the tv station khnl which is a off breed of NBC. He has worked with many people including professor Britos during his time in the television industry. During his time in class he went over some of the concerns in national stage. He gave the class advice on how we should get involved so our world won't be all messed up. HE also encouraged some of the people to try the television industry because KHNL gives internships and scholarships to students who want to go into the television business. It was interesting to see his aspect of tv and everything he does. He does all of his own segments called "Think About It" on KHNL and it was interesting hearing from him how and why he does it. His reasoning behind doing the Think About It segments is that he knows a lot of people these days don't actually think about stuff too hard and his segments challenge viewers in every aspect to actually think long and hard about the subjects he is discussing. Overall the visit was quit pleasant and he does have a very interesting proposal in broadcasting because I see myself as a very social person and would love to get paid to talk essentially.

Ps4 and Xbox One

Ps4 and Xbox One the two biggest gaming consoles were set to release a week in between each other with the Ps4 dropping on November 16 and the Xbox One on November 25. The two Gaming Giants in Sony and Microsoft will battle to see who's best in the gaming community and while that happens the sales of both consoles will be interesting to see who has more consumers. The brand new consoles are set at $400 for the Ps4 and $500 for the Xbox One. They both sold out on their first release and day one edition of each console which has a special thing in it. The Xbox one with it's controller's has a special indentation on the controllers which has a 1 indicating that you got the first ever consoles. On the Ps4 day one edition it didn't have anything special but adding a few little things such as software that would be included. The whole era of gaming is going to another level and is just getting started with the graphics getting so real that it looks like it's going to be like it's right in front of you. But for now the whole hype is the gaming systems between Xbox One and Ps4. But the real question is what console are you for?

Manny Pacquiao Fight

The Manny Pacquiao fight was on Pay-Per-View and a lot of people wanted to see how Manny Pacquiao could come back after his devastating loss to Juan Marquez. This was the fight that people thought if he were to lose again that he had fell off the top of the world of boxing. They also thought that if he were to lose that he probably should consider retirement after putting so many legends in the sport to rest such as (Oscar de La Hoya & Ricky Hatton). But it was devastating turn of events after his loss to Timothy Bradley in which many thought he had won the match. But in the opposing corner stands the young gun Brandon Rios who has been tearing through the welterweight division to make his way to stardom. Manny Pacquiao eventually was the center of attention and he did not disappoint the fans at all. From beginning to end The Pac-Man had the crowd and the judges in his favor as he dominated the entire match and came out with a unanimous decision against the young gun Brandon Rios. After such domination in such a fight the ratings came out for PPV and the results came out to having a very low PPV rating because no one wants to watch Manny Pacquiao to fight a nobody. But the real question now is whether or not the big fight that everyone has been waiting for is going to happen? The fight i'm talking about is Manny "Pac-Man" Pacquiao & Floyd "Money" Mayweather two of boxing's most popular fighters and even though it would have been nice to see it when Manny Pacquiao had come out of wins such as Ricky Hatton and Miguel Cotto I believe boxing fan's will still love the fight and will be considered one of the best-selling and most-anticipated fights ever in the history of boxing and PPV.

Microsoft Surface 2 Pro Tablet

The new tablet that came out for Microsoft is very impressive. It is different in many ways compared to the apple products. When watching the commercial at first I didn't think it was going to be good but then It began to fascinate me with it's features. Unlike Apple in windows 7 Microsoft introduced the side by side feature which comes in handy on many occasions. This would be able to help me during class in keeping up on written notes while having the book in the other window side by side. One thing which is nice about the new surface pro 2 is that it comes with a stylus which you can write and make notes on. Apple's new product is their Ipad Air which is essentially the same product as other and previous Ipad's. I'm normally an apple product consumer but I believe I am going to buy the Surface Pro 2 over Apple's Ipad Air.

Magnum PI Reaction

Week 3:

Magnum PI was very interesting because of the fact that it took place in hawaii. It also was a way for people to get excitement from something after their day. The show aired late at night when everyone was done with their day and allowed them that entertainment that recieved from previous shows such as Hawaii Five-0. Magnum PI was a very good action show and actually was very entertaining coming from a later generation. I could see why the show aired for 8 years and kept audiences captured. The cleverness of the show was very well thought of and other shows had benefited from it and I believe it was a platform for other shows to go off of. Magnum PI was a foundation for other to go off of and that has paid off for a lot of shows making big money. All in all Magnum PI was a very interesting show and I wouldn't mind watching it again but for my taste it might be a little outdated. http://televisionshows4u.blogspot.com/2011/07/magnum-pi.html

Iphone 5s and 5c

What is it about apple releasing a new iphone every 6 months of course they have something new. They announce something but are already starting on the new project while everyone thinks they are focused on the current project. Apple is smart and only gives bits and pieces to it's consumers and this will always get people to buy their product. Apple is both a genius and a menace to consumers being for the fact that they help new incoming users but sucker in old consumers in which they have gotten in the past.
